Description * Provides a completely up to date and much-needed entry into the long and forbiddingly technical works of the most influential German philosopher alive today * Covers Habermas's influence on a wide variety of fields, including philosophy, political and social theory, cultural studies, sociology, and literary studies * Explains how Habermas's ideas are applied to present day social and political situations * Unlike other writings on Habermas, this explains his intellectual framework and technical vocabulary rather than simply adopting it This book gives a clear and readable overview of the philosophical work of Jurgen Habermas, the most influential German philosopher alive today, who has commented widely on subjects such as Marxism, the importance and effectiveness of communication, the reunification of Germany, and the European Union. Gordon Finlayson provides readers with a clear and readable overview of Habermas's forbiddingly complex philosophy using concrete examples and accessible language. He then goes on to analyse both the theoretical underpinnings of Habermas's social theory, and its more concrete applications in the fields of ethics, politics, and law; and concludes with an examination how Habermas's social and political theory informs his writing on contemporary, political, and social problems. =========================================== Contents Preface: Who is J?rgen Habermas 1.

本书收录了哈贝马斯的十二篇讲稿,它们是对于法国后结构主义激进理性批判的回应,也是对康德之后欧洲哲学主流全面而公允的评估。哈贝马斯追踪了导致我们当代处境的那些历史转折点,通过与过去和现在批评家和理论家的广泛对话,试验了他有关后现代话语之适当形式的观点。关于乔治•巴塔耶、米歇尔•福科、雅克•德里达和科尔内利乌斯•卡斯托里亚迪斯的章节尤其值得关注,它们堪称晚近德法思想之间相互影响的最早成果。
