What is Orientation in Global Thinking?: A Kantian Inquiry by Katrin Flikschuh (

Description: What is Orientation in Global Thinking? by Katrin Flikschuh Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description This book engages modern African philosophical thinking from a Kantian perspective, presenting new approaches to global justice debates, and showing that Kantian universalism does not require general agreement on substantive moral principles. It will interest moral and political philosophers and those interested in global moral issues, as well as Kant scholars. Publisher Description Starting from Kants striking question What is orientation in thinking?, this book argues that the main challenge facing global normative theorising lies in its failure to acknowledge its conceptual inadequacies. We do not know how to reason globally; instead, we tend to apply our domestic political experiences to the global context. Katrin Flikschuh argues that we must develop a form of global reasoning that is sensitive to the variability of contexts: rather than trying to identify a uniquely shareable set of substantive principles, we need to appreciate and understand local reasons for action. Her original and incisive study shows how such reasoning can benefit from the open-ended nature of Kants systematic but non-dogmatic philosophical thinking, and from reorientation from a domestic to a non-domestic frame of thought. It will appeal to all those interested in global moral issues, as well as to Kant scholars. Author Biography Katrin Flikschuh is Professor of Modern Political Theory at the London School of Economics and Political Science. She is the author of Kant and Modern Political Philosophy (Cambridge, 2000) and Freedom: Contemporary Liberal Perspectives (2007).
