Philosophy and Community: Theories, Practices and Possibilities
Editat de Amanda Fulford, Grace Lockrobin, Professor Richard Smithen Limba Engleză Paperback – 29 iul 2021
Public philosophy, or 'doing philosophy' in the community, is an important and growing trend - revealed not only by the phenomenon of the Parisian philosophy café, but also the contemporary rise of multiple grassroots projects, for example the Philosophy in Pubs movement. This book is the first to offer academic examination of the theoretical contributions and practical applications of community philosophy.
Bringing together voices from diverse contexts and subject areas, from activism and political action to religious environments, arts organisations and museums to maximum security prisons, this collection asks key questions about the point of making philosophy available for everyone: 'How do you "do philosophy" with the public?'; 'Is philosophy in the community the same as academic philosophy?'; 'Why is community philosophy important?'
Including contributions from practitioners and researchers from professional philosophy, education, healthcare, and community philosophy, this collection offers perspectives on a growing area of study. It offers a timely and critical introduction to, and analysis of, what philosophy can be when grounded in socially-engaged activities.

Recenzii
This work is chicken soup for the souls of those who ardently believe in the public significance of philosophical discussion and it is an excellent introduction to public philosophy for the uninitiated. Its chapters are as insightful and exciting as the book as a whole is comprehensive. It will be of great interest to anyone with an appetite for the practices of philosophy beyond the lecture hall.
Philosophy and Community makes a powerful case for philosophical analysis, argument and imagination to be practised within communities, rather than simply applied to them. To be effective, public philosophy needs to be properly understood, and by rigorously examining both theory and practice, this important work helps unlock the rich potential of philosophy to enhance communal flourishing.
