Material type: TextPublisher: University of Ottawa Press / Les Presses de l' Universite d'Ottawa, Description: 1 online resource (180 p.)ISBN: 9780776617602Subject(s): Philosophy / Political | Philosophy | PhilosophyGenre/Form: Electronic books.Online resources: View this content on Open Research Library. Summary: Multicultural Dynamics and the Ends of History provides a strikingly original reading of key texts in the philosophy of history by Kant, Hegel, and Marx, as well as strong arguments for why these texts are still relevant to understanding history today. Réal Fillion offers a critical exposition of the theses of these three authors on the dynamics and the ends of history, in order to provide an answer to the question: "Where are we headed?" Grounding his answer in the twin observations that the world is becoming increasingly multicultural and increasingly unified, Fillion reasserts the task of the speculative philosophy of history as it had been understood by German philosophy: the articulation and understanding the historical process as a developmental whole.Item type | Current library | Call number | URL | Status | Date due | Barcode |
