Refleksi 30 Tahun HIDESI
Bukalah buku sejarah manusia di mana pun dan Anda akan menemukan pertanyaan abadi: “Apa itu kebaikan dan apa itu kejahatan?” Inilah persoalan filosofis paling awet sepanjang sejarah. Berbagai jawaban telah dikemukakan. Ada filsuf yang berupaya memberikan jawaban tertentu untuk menuntaskan masalah ini, namun nyatanya dalam waktu singkat masalah ini muncul kembali dalam pemikiran orang lain. Sepanjang sejarah pemikiran manusia, ditemukan bahwa masalah baik dan jahat, yang kita bicarakan sebagai “etika” atau “masalah etis”, terus saja menantang setiap filsuf (S. E. Frost, Jr. 1962: 80-81). Buku Refleksi 30 Tahun HIDESI ini adalah bagian dari upaya memberi konteks pada pertanyaan aba...
A Two-Colored Brocade
Two-Colored Brocade: The Imagery of Persian Poetry
The Islamic Roots of Democratic Pluralism
This book tackles the most significant issues facing Muslims today. Sachedina argues that we must reopen the doors of religious interpretation--to correct false interpretations, replace outdated laws, and formulate new doctrines. His book critically analyzes Muslim teachings on such issues as pluralism, civil society, war and peace, and violence and self-sacrifice.
The Morality of Pluralism
Controversies about abortion, the environment, pornography, AIDS, and similar issues naturally lead to the question of whether there are any values that can be ultimately justified, or whether values are simply conventional. John Kekes argues that the present moral and political uncertainties are due to a deep change in our society from a dogmatic to a pluralistic view of values. Dogmatism is committed to there being only one justifiable system of values. Pluralism recognizes many such systems, and yet it avoids a chaotic relativism according to which all values are in the end arbitrary. Maintaining that good lives must be reasonable, but denying that they must conform to one true pattern, Kekes develops and justifies a pluralistic account of good lives and values, and works out its political, moral, and personal implications.
Diversity and Distrust
Extending the ideas of John Rawls, Macedo defends a "civic liberalism" in culturally diverse democracies that supports the legitimacy of reasonable efforts to inculcate shared political virtues while leaving many larger questions of meaning and value to private communities.
Enhancing Humanity
In Jean PaulSartre's Nausea, Roquentin feels bound to listen to the sentimental ramblings about humanism and humanity by the Self Taught Man. "Is it my fault," muses Roquentin, "in all he tells me, I recognize the lack of the genuine article? Is it my fault if, as he speaks, I see all the humanists I have known rise up? I have known so many ofthem!" And then he lists the radical humanist, the so called"left" humanist, and Communist Humanist, the Catholic humanist, all claiming a passion for their fellow men. "But there are others, a swarm of others: the humanist philosopher who bends over his brothers like a wise older brother with a sense of his responsibility; the humanist who loves men as...
Democracy and Human Rights
What is democracy? How do we know when we have it? Is liberal democracy merely one, or the only, version of democracy.
