Bloomsbury Philosophy Dictionaries

While his work speaks very powerfully to the contemporary age, the language of Emmanuel Levinas can seem difficult to approach. This dictionary gives you access to terms he used to build his overall argument, including those he employed idiosyncratically and invented. The dictionary also includes terms from phenomenology to which he gave new meanings, and which focused his critique of Western philosophy. The Levinas Dictionary also makes the work of this central figure in 20th-century philosophy more easily readable in translation by including the original French words he used. Each term explored belongs to one or more of three periods of the work he regarded as properly philosophical: 1) pre-1940; 2) 1940-1960, including the writing of his magnum opus Totality and Infinity and 3) 1960-1995, including his second great work, Otherwise than Being. Entries show how the terms appear, develop, or mutate over the course of his work in the phenomenology of radical ethics. Including an intellectual biography and a chronology of Levinas' life and work, a list of primary sources in French and English, as well as secondary sources and a glossary, The Levinas Dictionary will provide a broad and far-reaching introduction to a thinker whose work has only become more relevant to contemporary theory and practice.

The Levinas Dictionary

ORIGINAL SIN opens with Kathryn Paige Harden taking LSD with her boyfriend in the West Texas desert, precipitating an experience in which he is unable to escape from the sense that he alone is responsible for an apocalyptic event, despite the fact that the event was impossible to avoid. Using this idea - of being born into sin, the eternal human paradox of free will versus destiny, sharpened to a razor edge by contemporary genetics - Harden explores some of the most important questions in philosophy: How are we to take responsibility for the individuals we become in light of what we know about behavioural genetics? We are not responsible for our genomes, but where does that leave us in respect of justice and punishment? If we possess a predisposition toward violence, does that make such behaviour any less egregious? If we can't help being attracted to certain people, in what sense can we be said to choose a mate or partner? In light of what we know about biology, how should we treat one another, and how can we use policies and social intervention to create a society in which all of us flourish? Beautifully written, deeply literate, autobiographically daring and informed by her own research on the cutting edge of behavioural genetics, this is a profoundly original work of literary non-fiction that promises to take us on a wild intellectual journey - and stay with us long after we turn the final page.

The Right Thing to Do

When you think about the tools at our disposal to address the ecological, social and biodiversity challenges we face today, accounting might not immediately come to mind. And yet it is accounting standards, not science and not public policy, that set out how profit is calculated, which in turn drives investment decisions. What if we demanded that those standards reflect the true cost of business and its consequences?Unless we look again at these fundamental principles, which have gone under the radar for so long, capital markets will continue to contribute to inequality, nature loss and climate change. What's remarkable is that we already have in place everything we need for a more just and complete approach to accounting, and forward-thinking businesses are beginning to recognize that.Jeremy Nicholls - accountant, sustainability professional, historian and activist - sets out a vision for new way of accounting, and it's one that we can adopt immediately.

Original dialogues between Pope Francis and Carlo Petrini, the Slow Food movement's founder, on biodiversity, the economy, migration, education, and communityIn 2015, Pope Francis launched the idea of "integral ecology" with his encyclical Laudato Si', addressing Catholics, followers of other faiths, and nonbelievers alike. This groundbreaking reflection examined the serious environmental deterioration of our planet caused by scandalously unjust and irresponsible economic and political systems.Among the thought leaders who inspired Pope Francis was Carlo Petrini, founder of the Slow Food movement. This movement shares the global commitment to "cultivate and protect" human and earthly goods, proceeding with revolutionary pragmatism toward a life in harmony with oneself, with one's community, and with nature. Terrafutura features three original dialogues between Pope Francis and Petrini, exploring themes of biodiversity, the economy, migration, education, and community. Petrini's writings alternate with passages from papal documents, such as the intense "Apostolic Exhortation Querida Amazonia," the lively intervention "(Re)thinking Europe," and the affectionate exhortations to Laudato Si' communities, which suggest new ways of designing the economy and political systems and opening fraternal horizons to the comparison between lay and religious people and between the different cultures of the world.This book, which represents a radical step in developing the concept of integral ecology, will appeal to readers interested in links between climate change / sustainability and economic systems, as well as theologians, papal scholars, environmental activists, and nonprofits. By connecting contemporary discourse with religious texts, Terrafutura will inspire readers to embrace pacifist, collective activism and envision new models of coexistence in an environment that is "good, clean, and fair."
