Andrew T.W. Hung – författare

This erudite book delves into the philosophical underpinnings and practical implications of communitarianism in comparison to liberalism and other political theories. Imad Salamey and Andrew Tsz Wan Hung explore how social perspectives that emphasize the importance of community can be applied to contemporary political challenges in the context of globalization. Chapters dissect key intellectual debates, highlighting critiques of liberalism by communitarian thinkers including Michael Sandel, Alasdair MacIntyre, and Charles Taylor. The authors argue that the interconnectedness and interdependence fostered by globalization have eroded liberal notions of national sovereignty and individual citizenship, giving rise to a necessary resurgence in communitarian politics. Integrating perspectives from philosophy, political science, sociology and history, the book proposes a communitarian framework for governance that prioritizes social cohesion, shared values, and the common good.Providing an in-depth analysis of the impact of communitarianism on contemporary political discourse, this book is an essential read for students and scholars of political science, sociology, international relations, and philosophy. Its insights into governance strategies for social cohesion and political stability will also benefit policymakers and political practitioners.
