In this important book, Jurgen Habermas takes up certain
fundamental questions of philosophy. While much of his recent work
has been concerned with issues of morality and law, in this new
work Habermas returns to the traditional philosophical questions of
truth, objectivity and reality which were at the centre of his
earlier classic book "Knowledge and Human Interests."
In this new work Habermas returns to the traditional philosophical
questions of truth, objectivity and reality.
Habermas pursues these questions from the perspective of his own
formal pragmatic theory which is based on an analysis of speech
acts and language use.
He asks: How can the idea that our world exists independently of
our attempts to describe it be reconciled with the insight that we
can never reach reality without the mediation of language?
Addresses the limits of philosophy and reassesses the relation
between theory and practice from a 'post-Marxist' perspective.
