Using the dialectical tensions inherent to competing moral claims as his starting point, Michael Steinmann explains what he terms the \"failure of morality\" both in classical and contemporary positions. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e As moral claims lead in various ways to contradictions, the history of morality presents itself as an endless series of controversies. By using dialectical thinking, which has gone out of favour in current philosophy, Steinmann shows how we can capture the limitations of moral theories in a more holistic way. Without embracing skepticism about moral claims, a non-naturalistic and non-relativistic understanding of the good emerges as the fundamental notion of moral thought. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eReframing Ethics Through Dialectics\u003c\/i\u003e reinvigorates the classical notion of \"the absolute good\" as a fruitful conceptual structure through which to understand competing moral claims, without simply reproducing neo-Aristotelian literature on the good life. From the perspective of the good, the study allows us to take non-traditional theories more seriously, making space for moral philosophy to acknowledge and embrace the contradictions that all positions incur.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMichael Steinmann\u003c\/b\u003e is Professor of Philosophy at Stevens Institute of Technology, USA.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 280\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.59 x 9.21 x 6.14 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e August 22, 2024\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53344369082675,"sku":"9781350286924","price":80.71,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/HvAaXLa6f-9781350286924.webp?v=1778725237","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/en-ca\/products\/reframing-ethics-through-dialectics-a-new-understanding-of-the-moral-good-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
