Henri Bergson is primarily known for his work on time, memory, and
creativity. His equally innovative interventions into politics and
religion have, however, been neglected or dismissed until now. In
the first book in English dedicated to Bergson as a political
thinker, leading Bergson scholars illuminate his positions on core
concerns within political philosophy: the significance of emotion
in moral judgment, the relationship between biology and society,
and the entanglement of politics and religion. Ranging across
Bergson's writings but drawing mainly on his last book, "The Two
Sources of Morality and Religion," the contributors consider
Bergson's relevance to contemporary discussions of human rights,
democratic pluralism, and environmental ethics.
