|  Produktbeschreibung (21561137): Do knowledge and science arise from the application of canons of rationality and scientific method? Or is all our scientific knowledge caused by socio-political factors, or by our interests in the socio-political - the view of sociologists of 创knowledge创? Or does it result from interplay of relations of power - the view of Michel Foucault? Or does our knowledge arise from 创the will to power创 - the view of Nietzsche? This volume sets out to critically examine the theses of those who would debunk the idea of rational explanation. The book is wide-ranging. The theories of method of Quine, Kuhn, Feyerabend (amongst others) are discussed and related to the views of Marx, Foucault, Wittgenstein and Nietzsche as well as sociologists of science such as Mannheim and Bloor. The author provides a wide interpretative framework which links the doctrines espoused by many of these authors; it is argued that they inherit many of the difficulties in the Strong Programme in the sociology of 创knowledge创, and that they fail to reconcile the normativity of knowledge with their naturalism. It is argued that neither relativists, sceptics, nihilists, sociologists of 创knowledge创 nor the postmodernists successfully debunk the claims of rational explanation, far from it: these theorists presuppose much of the theory of methodology they deny. | | >>> Jetzt bei buecher.de - (Teil1) ansehen oder f黵 EUR 52.95 bestellen! |

The Trouble with Passion: Political Theory Beyond the Reign of Reason (buecher.de - (Teil1)) |  Produktbeschreibung (21638058): This is a fascinating and radical examination of the place of passion in politics by one of our leading theorists. Passion in political philosophy has always stood in the shadow of reason. Classic liberal theorists (from Plato through Rousseau up to Alexander Hamilton) paid considerable attention to the relationship between passion and reason, with reason always winning out. Contemporary scholars, though, rarely discuss it, consigning passion to the private sphere, irrelevant to politics. In 创The Trouble with Passion创, feminist theorist Cheryl Hall argues that we cannot simply discard the idea of powerful emotions in politics simply because they can be dangerous: they are necessary, valuable, and indissoluble. Rather than trying to protect the political realm from passion, we should focus our attention on how to better understand and develop passion. Strong feelings are a key component of a just political community, and 创The Trouble with Passion创 provides the first few steps in putting passion back into politics. | | >>> Jetzt bei buecher.de - (Teil1) ansehen oder f黵 EUR 120.95 bestellen! |

Crucible of Reason: Intentional Action, Practical Rationality, and Weakness of Will (buecher.de - (Teil1)) |  Produktbeschreibung (21332146): In this clear, incisive and well written inquiry, philosopher Keith Wyma subjects the thought of three prominent intentional theorists, R.M.Hare, Donald Davidson and Thomas Aquinas, to the crucible of reason to see whether and how they can account for weakness of will. Wyma is careful to clarify which actions count as incontinent or the result of weakness of will; they must be performed intentionally even as they are judged as something that ought not to be done. His in-depth study of Hare, Davidson and Aquinas on this important issue is a major contribution to understanding practical rationality and intentional action. | | >>> Jetzt bei buecher.de - (Teil1) ansehen oder f黵 EUR 99.95 bestellen! |

A Commentary to Kant磗 Critique of Pure Reason (buecher.de - (Teil1)) |  Produktbeschreibung (21785744): Of all the major philosophical works, Kant磗 创Critique of Pure Reason创 is one of the most rewarding, yet one of the most difficult. Norman Kemp Smith磗 创Commentary创 elucidates not only textural questions and minor issues, but also the central problems which arise, he contends, from the conflicting tendencies of Kant磗 own thinking. Kemp Smith磗 创Commentary创 is reissued here with an introduction by Sebastian Gardner to set it in its contemporary context. | | >>> Jetzt bei buecher.de - (Teil1) ansehen oder f黵 EUR 53.95 bestellen! |
