Paradoxes of Conflicts (Hardcover, 1st ed. 2016): Giovanni Scarafile, Leah Gruenpeter Gold Paradoxes of Conflicts (Hardcover, 1st ed. 2016)
Giovanni Scarafile, Leah Gruenpeter Gold
R3,376 Discovery Miles 33 760 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

This volume features more than 25 papers that were presented at the 2014 Conference of the International Association for the Study of Controversies, IASC, held at the University of Salento, Lecce, Italy. It looks at conflict and conflict resolution from diverse perspectives, including philosophy, psychology, law, and history. Coverage explores the paradox of conflict and examines how discord, whether large or small, international or internal, can be both a source of chaos as well as a foundation for unity, a limitation of potential as well as an entryway to a greater depth of living. Inside, readers will discover thought-provoking answers to such questions as: What are the conditions to ensure that a conflict can be converted into cooperation? If the conflict between interests can be solved by a compromise, what happens when a conflict involves non-negotiable values ? In the management of a conflict, what role is played by argumentation? What are the latest perspectives in conflict management? How does the theory of controversies allows us to recognize and resolve conflicts? By the end of the book, readers will have a better understanding of how conflict can be transcended and how it's possible to redefine the conflicting situation so that what seemed incompatible and locked may, in fact, open a new perspective.

Perspectives on Theory of Controversies and the Ethics of Communication - Explorations of Marcelo Dascal's Contributions... Perspectives on Theory of Controversies and the Ethics of Communication - Explorations of Marcelo Dascal's Contributions to Philosophy (Hardcover, 2014 ed.)
Dana Riesenfeld, Giovanni Scarafile
R3,371 Discovery Miles 33 710 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Assembling an unprecedented range of considered responses to the noted contributions to philosophy made by Marcelo Dascal, this collection comprises the work of his many friends, colleagues and former students. Beginning with a series of articles on Dascal's influential insights on philosophical controversy, this volume continues with explorations of Dascal's celebrated scholarship on Liebnitz, before moving on to papers dealing with his philosophy of language, including interpretations by Dresner and Herring on the phenomenon of emoticons. Taken as a whole, they provide a compelling commentary on Dascal's prolific and voluminous publications and include fresh perspectives on the theory of argumentation and the ethics of communication.

The material collected here extends to political philosophy, such as Morris-Reich's paper exploring the ways in which German social scientists confront issues of antisemitism, the psychology of genius, and the origins of norms in society and culture. Much of the analysis is directly connected to, or influenced by, the philosophical themes, ideas and concepts developed throughout the years by Marcelo Dascal, while others have a looser connection to his work. All of them, however, attest to the remarkable and multifaceted philosophical persona of Marcelo Dascal, who is the guiding light of the rich conceptual dialogue running through this book. "

R646 Discovery Miles 6 460 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Nell'ambito della comunicazione, le competenze comunicative colmano il gap tra teoria e pratica. Cimentarsi nel compito di integrare la teoria della comunicazione con la pratica significa fronteggiare, da un lato, lo snobismo di quanti vorrebbero preservare gli studi filosofici da ogni possibile contaminazione con la fatticita delle situazioni concrete dell'umano e, dall'altro, l'approccio meramente funzionalistico di quanti ritengono che la comunicazione sia di fatto riconducibile all'acquisizione di "tecniche". Il volume si interroga sulla possibilita di conciliare l'efficacia della comunicazione con l'approccio etico, che richiede di non obliterare l'alterita degli interlocutori.

Interdisciplinarita Ed Etica Della Comunicazione (Italian, Paperback): Giovanni Scarafile Interdisciplinarita Ed Etica Della Comunicazione (Italian, Paperback)
Giovanni Scarafile
R316 Discovery Miles 3 160 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

L'interdisciplinarita rappresenta oggi una nozione sempre piu utilizzata e generalmente considerata sinonimo di dialogo tra saperi. Come si e giunti ad avvertire il bisogno di tale dialogo? Dall'interno di molte discipline, e sorta la "richiesta di etica" quale requisito necessario di molti codici deontologici, un risultato importante, sebbene ancora insufficiente rispetto alle potenzialita effettive dell'etica, se assunta nella sua capacita di cercare il necessario orientamento in dialogo con i propri interlocutori. Quale idea di filosofia consente di raggiungere questo obiettivo? Quale paradigma di comunicazione e richiesto? Quale valenza acquista l'ascolto come attitudine filosofica? Per alludere al percorso accennato nel libro, risulta pertanto adeguata la scelta di Angerona, divinita romana, nell'iconografia ricordata nell'atto di portare il dito alla bocca nella richiesta di un silenzio attentivo, conditio sine qua non per una proposta filosofica che sappia farsi carico dell'altro.

Giovanni Scarafile (Ed.)
R497 Discovery Miles 4 970 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

"L'insignificanza, amico mio, e l'essenza della vita. E con noi ovunque e sempre. E presente anche dove nessuno la vuole vedere: negli orrori, nelle battaglie cruente, nelle peggiori sciagure. Occorre spesso coraggio per riconoscerla in condizioni tanto drammatiche e per chiamarla con il suo nome. Ma non basta riconoscerla, bisogna amarla, l'insignificanza, bisogna imparare ad amarla". Queste parole di Milan Kundera da "La festa dell'insignificanza" costituiscono il leitmotiv del volume di YOD MAGAZINE, collana editoriale di alta divulgazione. Specialisti di diversi settori (diritto, comunicazione, filosofia, cinema ecc.) provano a declinare il tema dell'insignificanza. YOD MAGAZINE e anche blog (www.yodmagazine.com) dove e possibile discutere con gli autori.

Il Demone Di Lermontov. Variazioni Al Confine Tra Etica Ed Estetica (Italian, Paperback): Giovanni Scarafile Il Demone Di Lermontov. Variazioni Al Confine Tra Etica Ed Estetica (Italian, Paperback)
Giovanni Scarafile
bundle available
R885 Discovery Miles 8 850 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

La vicenda, narrata da Lermontov, dell'incontro tra il demone e Tamara si presta ad una lettura metaforica proprio a partire dal suo esito piu nefasto, la negazione dell'esistenza della giovane donna nel momento in cui un bacio viene a sancire il frutto dell'irresistibile attrazione. Se il demone, cui e dato di sapere tutto, e condannato alla indifferenza anche rispetto allo stesso male che puo infliggere e se Tamara incarna la complessita della vicenda umana, la storia di questo incontro impossibile puo alludere al rapporto tra la filosofia e gli ambiti di cui essa e chiamata ad occuparsi. L'indagine, dunque, da forma e viene ad abitare il confine poroso tra etica ed estetica, laddove le forme della espressione possono diventare luogo stesso di manifestazione dell'altro.
