Post-Truth, Philosophy and Law (Paperback): Angela Condello, Tiziana Andina Post-Truth, Philosophy and Law (Paperback)
Angela Condello, Tiziana Andina
R1,284 Discovery Miles 12 840 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

In the wake of Brexit and Trump, the debate surrounding post-truth fills the newspapers and is at the center of the public debate. Democratic institutions and the rule of law have always been constructed and legitimized by discourses of truth. And so the issue of "post-truth" or "fake truth" can be regarded as a contemporary degeneration of that legitimacy. But what, precisely, is post-truth from a theoretical point of view? Can it actually change perceptions of law, of institutions and political power? And can it affect our understanding of society and social relations? What are its ideological premises? What are the technical conditions that foster it? And most importantly, does it have anything to teach lovers of the truth? Pursuing an interdisciplinary perspective, this book gathers both well-known and newer scholars from a range of subject areas, to engage in a philosophical interrogation of the relationship between truth and law.

Institutions in Action - The Nature and the Role of Institutions in the Real World (Paperback, 1st ed. 2020): Tiziana Andina,... Institutions in Action - The Nature and the Role of Institutions in the Real World (Paperback, 1st ed. 2020)
Tiziana Andina, Petar Bojanic
R4,188 Discovery Miles 41 880 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This edited volume presents the social ontology of institutions. It questions what institutions are, what features and properties institutions have and what kinds of institution are present in the social world. The book answers these questions from both a speculative and an applied approach, it argues for a specific definition of institutions as a rule-based equilibria, as collective epistemic agent that is characterized by meaning, principles and power and as product of a We-mode and an imposition of a function. This book started from the interdisciplinary conference Playing by the Rules in Rijeka and contains contributions from Philosophy, Sociology and Economy. Institutions in Action is the first book to offer a comprehensive overview of the many different aspects and accounts about the social ontology of institutions. This much needed book presents researchers a very wide state of the art about the topic of institution by presenting the many differences that emerge in comparing the different positions.

An Ontology for Social Reality (Paperback, 1st ed. 2016): Tiziana Andina An Ontology for Social Reality (Paperback, 1st ed. 2016)
Tiziana Andina; Translated by Sarah De Sanctis
R2,957 Discovery Miles 29 570 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This book explores the complex domain of social reality, asking what this reality is, how it is composed and what its dynamics are in both theoretical and practical terms. Through the examination of some of the most important contemporary theories of social ontology, the book discusses the fundamentals of the discipline and lays the foundations for its development in the political sphere. By analyzing the notion of State and the redesign of ontology, the author argues in favor of a realist conception of the State and shows the reasons why this promotes a better understanding of the dynamics of power and the actualization of a greater justice between generations. This book captures the relationship between different generations within the same political context, and presents it as a necessary condition for the re-definition of the concepts of State and meta-State.

A Philosophy for Future Generations - The Structure and Dynamics of Transgenerationality (Paperback): Tiziana Andina A Philosophy for Future Generations - The Structure and Dynamics of Transgenerationality (Paperback)
Tiziana Andina
R1,053 Discovery Miles 10 530 Ships in 9 - 15 working days

If societies, like institutions, are built to endure, then the bond that exists between generations must be considered. Constructing a framework to establish a philosophy of future generations, Tiziana Andina explores the factors that make it possible for a society to reproduce over time. Andina's study of the diachronic structure of societies considers the never-ending passage of generations, as each new generation comes to form a part of the new social fabric and political model. Her model draws on the anthropologies offered by classical political philosophies such as Hobbes and Machiavelli and the philosophies of power as discussed by Nietzsche. She confronts the ethics and function of this fundamental relationship, examines the role of transgenerationality in the formation and endurance of Western democracies and recognizes an often overlooked problem: each new generation must form part of social and political arrangements designed for them by the generations that came before.

The Philosophy and Art of Wang Guangyi (Hardcover): Tiziana Andina, Erica Onnis The Philosophy and Art of Wang Guangyi (Hardcover)
Tiziana Andina, Erica Onnis
R3,630 Discovery Miles 36 300 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Wang Guangyi, one of the stars of the new wave of Chinese art, has artistically addressed major philosophical trends in Western philosophy while drawing on Taoism, Marxism and Maoism. By bringing together a team of experts in the philosophy of art to discuss his work, The Philosophy and Art of Wang Guangyi presents the first philosophical exploration of Wang's art, his thought and his analysis of Chinese society. From his use of words in images to his reference to the classics of Western painting, contributors set Wang's work against key questions in contemporary art. As well as answering what makes the language of pop art successful, they examine whether art and its history have come to an end, as Hegel posited, and if it is possible or even necessary to rework a new narrative for the history of contemporary art. The Philosophy and Art of Wang Guangyi marks an important contribution to understanding the background, work and ideas of a 21st-century political artist outside the West.

The Philosophy of Art: The Question of Definition - From Hegel to Post-Dantian Theories (Paperback, Nippod): Tiziana Andina The Philosophy of Art: The Question of Definition - From Hegel to Post-Dantian Theories (Paperback, Nippod)
Tiziana Andina
R1,585 Discovery Miles 15 850 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Drawing on the philosophies of art developed by the continental authors and studies of Anglo-American philosophers, this book presents a panorama of the philosophy of art. Tiziana Andina discusses definitions offered from the analytical school including Arthur Danto's representationalism, Dipert's theories of artefactualism, Dickie's institutional and procedural theories and Levinson's historical and cultural theories. From the continental theories it reflects on Hegel's notion of philosophy of art, Martin Heidegger's and Hans Georg Gadamer's hermeneutic tradition and Alexius Meinong's theory of objects. This range of definitions and theories are judged and defended using a form of representationalism that begins with the results of Arthur Danto's thinking and integrates the aesthetic reflection of the Baumgarten School. The result is not only a presentation of philosophy of art from the beginning of the twentieth century to present day, but a study that proposes a theory capable of synthesizing the finest contributions of the analytic and continental traditions.
