Beskrivning
Porosity between Politics and the Economy addresses the relationships between politics and the economy in deeply original ways. It is a book motivated by a sense of urgency aroused by both the failure of modern capitalism and the environmental crisis. Egidius Berns argues that the relations between politics and the economy are porous, and he investigates the consequences of this porosity. By mapping out of a number of conceptual fault lines that underpin the weaknesses of post-industrial capitalist societies, Berns provides a fresh look at the current crisis of open societies.But the book also preliminarily points to a path to reforming the relations between the economy and politics. By analyzing the web of conceptual connections that will continue to inform any possible configuration between them, it finds a way into a future characterized by a certain ethics that combines restraint and combativeness.”

This book is much more than a study on the relation between economics and politics. Porosity Between Politics and the Economy is a profound investigation into the very concepts of politics, economics, philosophy and ethics. In this book, that is as rich and dense as it is short, Egidius Berns redefines these concepts in a very original and profound way, offering us new historical and thematic insights into the ambiguous nature of economy and politics. They are porous in themselves and in their mutual relations. With the notion of ‘porosity’, Berns has found a way to make Derrida’s deconstructive way of thinking fruitful for an innovative understanding of economy, politics and ethics and their ambiguous relations. This is a must-read for every scholar and student who is interested in the interconnections between philosophy, politics, economy end ethics.
