Marx and Human Nature: Refutation of a Legend
ISBN: 9781784782351 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) "Marx did not reject the idea of a human nature. He was right not to do so." That is the conclusion of this passionate and polemical new work by Norman Geras. In it, he places the sixth of Marx's Theses on Feuerbach under rigorous scrutiny. He argues that this ambiguous statement--widely cited as evidence that Marx broke with all conceptions of human nature in 1845--must be read in the context of Marx's work as a whole. His later writings are informed by an idea of a specifically human nature that fulfills both explanatory and normative functions. The belief that Marx's...

Solidarity in the Conversation of Humankind: The Ungroundable Liberalism of Richard Rorty
ISBN: 9780860916598 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) This study engages with the work of Richard Rorty - an influential champion of human, radical liberalism - to explore the paradoxes of a philosophy which rejects any determinate view of human nature. It begins by considering Rorty's thesis concerning rescuer behaviour during the Holocaust. Measuring it against existing research on the subject and testimony of rescuers themselves, the author questions Rorty's use of their moral example as a challenge to universalist assumptions.

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) A powerful work of moral and political philosophy.The idea which I shall present here came to me more or less out of the blue. I was on a train some five years ago, on my way to spend a day at Headingley and I was reading a book about the death camp at Sobibor... The particular, not very appropriate, conjunction involved for me in this train journey... had the effect of fixing my thoughts on one of the more dreadful features of human coexistence, when in the shape of a simple five-word phrase the idea occurred to me. In The Contract of Mutual Indifference, Norman Geras discusses a central...
