Values and Powers de Skowro&

Values and Powers

Autor Skowro&
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 2009
This book shows how much and in what sense values are related to powers and powers are related to values in American pragmatism. The proposed re-reading of American pragmatism will facilitate a novel understanding of it as a philosophical movement and, by showing its truly humanistic, democratic, and pro-social character, the stronger impetus for current rethinking of values is being provided.

Recenzii

”Skowroński is to be applauded for placing a wide range of pragmatic theorists within a clear thematic structure. … Pragmatism’s strength lies in its forward moving and flexible approach to questions of value, power, and philosophy. The challenge is always to slow that movement down so we can savor the moments of illumination. Skowroński’s book is an engaging, if ultimately tentative, attempt to do just that.” in: Philosophy in Review XXX (2010), No. 5
