Charles Taylor, Michael Polanyi and the Critique of Modernity
Springer International Publishing (Verlag)
978-3-319-87665-8 (ISBN)
This book provides a timely, compelling, multidisciplinary critique of the largely tacit set of assumptions funding Modernity in the West. A partnership between Michael Polanyi and Charles Taylor's thought promises to cast the errors of the past in a new light, to graciously show how these errors can be amended, and to provide a specific cartography of how we can responsibly and meaningfully explore new possibilities for ethics, political society, and religion in a post-modern modernity.
Charles W. Lowney II is Assistant Professor of Philosophy at Hollins University, Virginia, USA.
