Uniqueness and community: on the reception of Max Stirner in Albert Camus' The Rebel

This paper addresses the reception of Max Stirner's philosophy by Albert Camus in his book The Rebel. A comparative reading of the views of the authors is developed, specifically through the articulation of two central concepts in the thought of both men - revolt and revolution. We evaluate of the validity of the objections presented by Camus to Stirner's philosophy, with a focus on the issues surrounding the concepts of community and uniqueness.
