 Social Philosophy after Adorno
Zuidervaart, Lambert, 2007, 215 pages 978-0-521-69038-6
|
$30.95 (p) add to list |
| This book examines what is living and what is dead in the social philosophy of Theodor W. Adorno, the most important philosopher and social critic in Germany after World War II. When he died in 1969, Adorno's successors abandoned his critical-utopian passions. Habermas, in particular, rejected or ignored Adorno's central insights on the negative effects of capitalism and new technologies upon nature and human life. In this book, Lambert Zuidervaart reclaims Adorno's insights from Habermasian neglect, while taking up legitimate Habermasian criticisms. He also addresses the prospects for radical and democratic transformations of an increasingly globalized world. The book proposes a provocative social philosophy "after Adorno". | |

| This book explores the educational implications of a biblically informed perspective on wisdom as an alternative to the modernist theory-into-practice paradigm. Blomberg draws extensively on his experience as teacher and curriculum consultant at Mount Evelyn Christian School, Australia, to make the case that Christian schooling not only should but can be done differently than the typical focus on "academic excellence" decrees. | |

Featured DVD
Worldview Conference 2007 |
Regular Price: $15.00 add to list |

Christians confess that the Bible is the inspired word of God, meant to give direction to our lives as we seek to be faithful followers of Christ. How does Scripture provide guidance for living today? Isn't it full of outdated or conflicting points of view on a variety of ethical matters? This DVD from Richard Middleton's popular conference talks in Canada and the U.S. will help listeners face squarely the ethical complexity of Scripture, while introducing a narrative framework for making sense of this difficulty, so that Scripture might provide guidance for us in the contemporary world. Handout material to accompany this video will be available here for a limited time. |
