Philosophy

Paperback. Contains essays that aim to disentangle us from the opposition between universalism and relativism in which so many of the debates in philosophy have found themselves caught. This volume shows, what is in fact returning in these discussions and manoeuvring them into a pre-set course is the very ambiguity which they seek to repress. Series: Phaenomenologica. Num Pages: 423 pages, biography. BIC Classification: HPK. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 234 x 159 x 23.
