Kant and the Metaphors of Reason

In den vergangenen Jahrzehnten hat die Metapher in der Philosophie zunehmend Beachtung gefunden und wurde zu einem zentralen Thema, mit dem Kant sich in seiner kritischen Philosophie in Begriffen von Analogie und Symbolisierung beschäftigt. Sein Beitrag zur Entwicklung unseres Verständnisses der Rolle, die Bilder, Metaphern und Symbole in theoretischer und praktischer Hinsicht leisten, ist bedeutend; zudem ist Kant selber auch als Schöpfer von Metaphern weithin bekannt. Symbole, Analogien und ästhetische Ideen sind unleugbar metaphorische Verfahren, die eine ebenso grundlegende wie systematische Funktion in Kants philosophischer Sprache einnehmen. – Dieser Sammelband ist das Ergebnis e...

Justice and Democracy in Brazil

This book details the struggle to establish and maintain democracy and justice in Brazil after 2000. From 1964 to 1984, Brazil had a dictatorship, which was followed by democratic elections. Later, from 2003 to 2016, the nation enjoyed a very popular and democratic government under President Lula and President Dilma, who created many social and educational programs that raised 32 million people out of extreme poverty. However, as this book highlights, since 2013, the nation has witnessed the rise of a very conservative movement, which led to the impeachment of President Dilma (2016), to the imprisonment of President Lula (2018) and to the election of a right-wing president, who represented a decline in democracy and rights from 2018 to 2022. In 2022, we had new elections, with the victory of President Lula, who took office on January 1, 2023. This book advocates for a new period in Brazilian politics, with full democracy, respect for the rule of law and social justice.

  • Publisher: DWWeditorial

Este livro é uma coletânea de estudos a respeito do pensamento do Jürgen Habermas. A quase totalidade dos textos aborda algum debate ou interlocução em que o filósofo e sociólogo alemão se envolveu durante sua trajetória intelectual, ainda em curso. Os trabalhos foram apresentados e discutidos por especialistas no pensamento de Habermas ou no pensamento de algum de seus interlocutores durante o VII Colóquio Habermas: Habermas e lnterlocuções, acorrido na Universidade Estadual de Londrina em outubro de 2011. Entre os diversos interlocutores de Habermas, alguns são apresentados apenas no estudo preliminar, ao passo que outros, como Arendt, Foucault, Gadamer, Hobbes, Nietzsche e Kant recebem capítulos específicos, em que as indagações habermasianas suscitadas à luz de seus respectivos pensamentos são reconstruídas e examinadas criteriosamente. Por essa razão, este livro deve interessar tanto aos estudiosos de Habermas quanto aos de seus interlocutores aqui discutidos.

Kant's Political Legacy

Kant's Political Legacy

This book focuses on Kant’s analysis of three issues crucial for contemporary politics. Starting from a new reading of Kant’s account of our innate right to freedom, it highlights how a Kantian foundation of human rights, properly understood and modified where necessary, appears more promising than the foundational arguments currently offered by philosophers. It then compares Kant’s model for peace with the apparently similar model of democratic peace to show that the two are profoundly different in content and in quality. The book concludes in analysis of Kant’s controversial view of history to rescue it from the idea that his belief in progress is at best over-optimistic and at worst dogmatic. Congratulations to Professor Luigi Caranti and his book 'Kant's Political Legacy' which has been given a 'honorable mention' by the North American Kant Society in the competition for the best 2018 book on Kant!! http://northamericankantsociety.onefireplace.org/Announcements/6660588

Filosofia feminista

Filosofia feminista

Só dois tipos de pessoas podem se dizer não feministas: aqueles que não tomaram consciência dos abusos, das desigualdades, da opressão e das injustiças sofridos pelas mulheres e aqueles que não se importam com isso. Ainda que a luta do feminismo tenha essencialmente o mesmo objetivo, existem diversas vertentes, modos de operação e focos, pois as mulheres também são diversas e apresentam diferentes demandas. A filosofia feminista vem lidar com essas questões buscando incluir no campo da filosofia, sempre tão masculino e branco, a mulher feminista. O mundo já mostrou que muito tem a dizer sobre as mulheres, seus comportamentos e sua aparência, querendo ditar como eles devem ser....
