Development as Freedomis a general exposition of the economic ideas and analyses of Amartya Sen, winner of the 1998 Nobel Prize in Economic Science. This brilliant and indispensable treatise compellingly analyzes the nature of contemporary economic development from the perspective of human freedom. Freedom, Sen persuasively argues, is at once the ultimate goal of economic life and the most efficient means of realizing general welfare. It is a good to be enjoyed by the world’s entire population. Drawing on moral and political philosophy and technical economic analysis, this work gives the nonspecialist reader powerful access to Sen’s paradigm-altering vision and vividly shows how he, in the words of the Nobel Prize committee, has both “restored an ethical dimension to the discussion of economic problems” and “opened up new fields of study for subsequent generations of researchers.” To a world divided between those who fear the ruthlessness of the free market under prevailing conditions of global capitalism and those who fear the terror of authoritarian states that stifle indi- vidual liberty as well as initiative,Development as Freedompresents a necessary intellectual and moral framework of analysis and scrutiny. By rigorously addressing one of the largest questions of all–“What is the relation between our economic wealth and our ability to live as we would like?”–Sen allows economics once again, as it did in the time of Adam Smith, to address the social basis of individual well-being and freedom. He also confronts the human dilemma that “despite unprecedented increases in overall opulence, the contemporary world denies elementary freedoms to vast numbers–perhaps even the majority–of people.” This is a landmark work that shows how in individual human freedom–the exclusive possession, Sen shows, of no particular nation, region or historical, intellectual or religious tradition–lies the capacity for political participation, economic development and social progress.
Is the point of belief and assertion invariably to think or say something true? Is the truth of a belief or assertion absolute, or is it only relative to human interests? Most philosophers think it incoherent to profess to believe something but not think it true, or to say that some of the things we believe are only relatively true. Common sense disagrees. It sees many opinions, such as those about matters of taste, as neither true nor false; it takes it as obvious that some ofthe truth is relative.Mark Richard’s accessible book argues that when it comes to truth, common sense is right, philosophical orthodoxy wrong. The first half of the book examines connections between the performative aspects of talk (what we do when we speak), our emotions and evaluations, and the conditions under which talk and thought qualifies as true or false. It argues that the performative and expressive sometimes trump the semantic, making truth and falsity the wrong dimension of evaluation for belief orassertion. Among the topics taken up are: racial slurs and other epithets; relations between logic and truth; the status of moral and ethical talk; vagueness and the liar paradox. The book’s second half defends the idea that much of everyday thought and talk is only relatively true or false. Truth isinevitably relative, given that we cannot work out in advance how our concepts will apply to the world. Richard explains what it is for truth to be relative, rebuts standard objections to relativism, and argues that relativism is consistent with the idea that one view can be objectively better than another. The book concludes with an account of matters of taste and of how it is possible for divergent views of such matters to be equally valid, even if not true or false.When Truth Gives Out will be of interest not only to philosophers who work on language, ethics, knowledge, or logic, but to any thoughtful person who has wondered what it is, or isn’t, for something to be true.
“The Eighteenth century is one of the most important periods in the history of Western philosophy, witnessing the philosophical, scientific, religious, and social and political change of the Enlightenment on a massive scale. In spite of this, there are few overviews of the philosophy of the period as a whole. The Routledge Companion to Eighteenth Century Philosophy is an authoritative survey and assessment of this momentous period, covering major thinkers, topics and movements in Eighteenth century philosophy. The thirty-six specially commissioned chapters by a team of international contributors offer an extensive treatment of the Enlightenment, metaphysics and religion, mind, knowledge, perception, passions, morals, politics and aesthetics. A section on Philosophy and the Arts and Sciences shows the connections between philosophy and other areas of inquiry, and the final part is devoted to major figures of the period: Hume, Kant, and Rousseau. The Routledge Companion to Eighteenth Century Philosophy provides students of philosophy and those from related disciplines with an outstanding and accessible guide to this fascinating period in the history of philosophy”–
