内容简介:
Recently the question of ethics has become a dominant issue for philosophical reflection. The question of ethics has clearly displaced earlier, more traditional concerns over epistemological issues, and the advent of postmodernity has shifted attention away from purely theoretical issues toward concerns of practical philosophy in the Aristotelian sense: the question of "the good" has pre-empted that of "the true".In The Ethics of Postmodernity, Gary Madison and Marty Fairbarn have collected instructive and illuminating essays that address the dilemmas left in the wake of the postmodern attack on foundationalism. This collection is a powerful statement on the many directions which a postmetaphysical ethics might take.
