New Waves In Political Philosophy Summary:
Palgrave Macmillan | 2009 | ISBN: 023022122X | 320 pages | PDF | 1,3 MB
'In this volume, a young generation of political theorists and philosophers successfully overcome the established paradigms of political philosophy. In leaving behind problems related to a heavily normative approach to politics, they return to classical problems in our political self-understanding, such as the conceptualization of ideology, engagement with questions of social suffering and human needs, and attention to the subject of politics.' - Axel Honneth, University of Frankfurt, Germany. Product Description This collection of essays breaks new ground by providing an unparalleled snapshot of new work in political philosophy. The book brings together up-and-coming scholars from across the globe using such diverse methodologies as critical theory and social choice theory, historical analysis and conceptual analysis. The volume demonstrates the vibrancy of contemporary political theorizing not only when treating perennial topics—democracy, equality, legitimacy, liberty, patriotism, political freedom, rationality—but also when revivifying topics briefly out of favor—human needs, ideology, judgment, political aesthetics—and tackling topics more recently put on the agenda—citizenship, collective agency, cultural contexts, feminism, identity, multiculturalism, social suffering, subjectivity. .
