Matter of Discourse
Community and Communication in Contemporary Philosophies
AvAmos Nascimento
E-bok
Engelska, 2018
637 kr
Läs direkt efter köp
First published in 1998. The emphasis upon differences, plurality and multiculturalism has led to an outpouring of information that has been interpreted by theories such as pragmatism, communitarianism, feminism, postmodern discourse and liberation ethics. Up to now, these issues have been seen as particular and external objects for theoretical discussion. This book goes to the heart of the matter and opens promising avenues for further philosophical reflection on these topics. Having the conception of communication in discourse theory as point of departure, scholars of distinct philosophical backgrounds move in and out of different contexts to offer a first-hand and in-depth account of the above positions in their dialogue with discourse theory. By establishing a web, they connect distinct issues that have been dealt with only separately thus far, without losing sight of differences. In the end, A Matter of Discourse shows that pluralism and multiculturalism are to be found within philosophy itself.

Human Dignity
Perspectives from a Critical Theory of Human Rights

Connecting three generations of critical theorists, this edited collection focuses on the mutual complementarity between the concept of "human dignity" and the theory and practice of human rights.Human dignity has recently emerged as a controversial theme in the philosophy of human rights and has become the subject of a growing debate involving theological, political, juridical, moral, and biomedical perspectives. Previously, interpretations of this concept took for granted specific definitions of this term without accounting for the perspective offered by a "Critical Theory of Human Rights." This interdisciplinary perspective relies on a tradition that goes from Immanuel Kant to Jürgen Habermas, influences new generations, and sheds more light on how human dignity is used (and abused) in contemporary discourses. Based on this tradition, the contributors sustain an engaged discussion of the topic and address issues such as domination, colonialism, multiculturalism, globalization, and cosmopolitanism. Informed by different contexts, each author offers a unique contribution to distinctive aspects of the necessary internal correlation between human dignity and human rights.This book will be of interest to students and researchers in human rights in Europe, North America, and Latin America and readers in the areas of political science, philosophy, sociology, law, and international relations.

This book brings together intercultural philosophy and human rights by focusing on how the theory and practice of human rights evolve differently in a plurality of contextual realities but coincide in the affirmation of key universal values.Introducing a philosophical perspective on intercultural communication, the author considers Karl Jaspers's idea of the Axial Age but expands it in dialogue with authors such as Jurgen Habermas and Enrique Dussel, who help define "e;Axiality"e; as a broader framework to address the plurality of cultures and norms that influence geopolitics, economics, human rights, and peace today. Focusing on Western Europe and South America as two examples of regional integration, the author argues that emerging regional blocs are not simply a matter for political economy but also for considerations on normativity, historical progression or regression, democratic participation of civil society, and the promotion of human rights and peace. In each region there are alternative discourses, practices, and systems that reveal, promote, and teach these values. Understanding the plurality of initiatives supporting human rights and peace and using intercultural communication to learn about their common claim to universality can help us address the challenges we face in the 21st century.This book will be of key interest to scholars and students of human rights, philosophy, political theory, history, anthropology, theology, international relations, policy studies, cultural studies, and more broadly to the wider humanities and social sciences.

This book makes a significant contribution to the on-going international dialogue on the meaning of concepts such as human rights, humanity, and cosmopolitanism. The authors propose a new agenda for research into a Critical Theory of Human Rights. Each chapter pursues three goals: to reconstruct modern philosophical theories that have contributed to our views on human rights; to highlight the importance of humanity and human dignity as a complementary dimension to liberal rights; and, finally, to integrate these issues more directly in contemporary discussions about cosmopolitanism. The authors not only present multicultural perspectives on how to rethink political and international theory in terms of the normativity of human rights, but also promote an international dialogue on the prospects for a critical theory of human rights discourses in the 21st century.
