Autopsia
There are certain things that can be explained and certain things that cannot be explained. This book is about the latter. It is a book about death: how death interrupts and influences the reflection on the self. It is a book about God: a detailed and critical discussion on how Kierkegaard and Derrida apply the concept of God in their philosophical reflections. The most ground-breaking analysis concerns the famous passage on the self (A.A) in The Sickness unto Death, where the author combines logical, rhetorical and dialectical means to establish a new perspective on Kierkegaard’s thinking in general. The Cartesian doubt then constitutes a common trait for his detailed and rigorous analysi...
Im Auftrag
Während und nach dem Ende der DDR standen die Akademie der Wissenschaften und die öffentlichen Hochschulen im Mittelpunkt der Aufmerksamkeit, etwas abgestuft auch die Industrieforschung. Das DDR-Wissenschaftssystem setzte sich jedoch nicht nur aus diesen Segmenten zusammen. Zusätzlich gab es Sonderhochschulen, die von Ministerien, Parteien, Massenorganisationen und Sicherheitsorganen unterhalten wurden, und ebenso zahlreiche Institute, die direkt im Auftrag der Ministerien forschten oder des SED-Zentralkomitees forschten. 1989 waren dies insgesamt 116 Einrichtungen mit 11.300 Lehrenden und Forschenden. Dieses Buch dokumentiert und beschreibt diese zumeist im verborgenen wirkenden Einrichtungen erstmals vollständig.

Many influential ethical views depend on the optimistic assumption that, despite appearances to the contrary, the human and natural world in which we live could, eventually, be made to make sense to us. In A World without Why, Raymond Geuss challenges this assumption. The essays in this collection—several of which are published here for the first time—explore the genesis and historical development of this optimistic configuration in ethical thought and the ways in which it has shown itself to be u...
