Opis

We share with the people of the Enlightenment the common experience of profound technical, social, and cultural upheavals. Even back then, many pressing questions of our time were being posed: about the claim to truth in science and politics, about the question of gender, about social and global justice, about sustainable economic practices, about peace in Europe and the world, and about how to deal with natural disasters. This book updates the insights of the Enlightenment and helps us use them to understand the crises of the present in a new way.
