Böcker av Lorenzo C. Simpson

Lorenzo C. Simpson offers a persuasive and powerful argument that hermeneutics is a valuable tool not only for critical theory but also for addressing many of the urgent issues of today. He shows its utility for unpacking intractable debates in the philosophy of science, multiculturalism, social epistemology, and racial and social justice.

Lorenzo Simpson explores the nature of modernity and postmodernity addressing the question of the price exacted by modernity in its scientific and technological guises.

Addressing the question of whether community is possible within culturally diverse societies, this work traces the debate through the works of Arnold, Herder, Adorno, Habermas and others and proposes an alternative that bridges cultural differences without erasing them.
