A sextet of sceptic texts has been collected in Stoic Six Pack 4 -
The Sceptics: Pyrrhonic Sketches by Sextus Empiricus, Life of
Pyrrho by Diogenes Laertius, Sextus Empiricus and Greek Scepticism
by Mary Mills Patrick, The Greek Sceptics: from Pyrrho to Sextus by
Norman MacColl, Stoics and Sceptics by Edwyn Bevan and Life of
Carneades by Diogenes Laertius. A key concept for the sceptics was
ataraxia ("tranquility"), a Greek term used by Pyrrho to describe a
lucid state of robust tranquility, characterized by ongoing freedom
from distress and worry. By applying ideas of what he called
"practical skepticism" to Ethics and to life in general, Pyrrho
concluded that ataraxia could be achieved. Arriving at a state of
ataraxia became the ultimate goal of the early Skeptikoi.
Although there is growing interest in the role of religion in
meeting the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs),
Agenda 2030, very few studies have focused on the contributions of
interfaith networks. Most of the contemporary publications on
religion and development focus on single religions or faith-based
organizations. This volume addresses the lacuna in the available
scholarship by undertaking detailed analyses of how interfaith
networks in diverse African contexts contribute to development.
Chapters in this volume engage in theoretical debates on interfaith
networks and development, while describing concrete, fresh case
studies on how particular interfaith networks are contributing
towards the meeting of the SDGs in specific contexts. Thus, the
volume describes older and newer interfaith networks and analyses
their achievements and challenges. Contributors focus on SDGs that
include peacebuilding, gender, youth, the environment, as well as
overviews of interfaith initiatives in different African contexts.
