Taylor & Francis Ltd Scientific Realism and Human Emancipation Classical Texts in Critical Realism Routledge Critical Realism
Book SynopsisFollowing on from Roy Bhaskar's first two books, A Realist Theory of Science and The Possibility of Naturalism, Scientific Realism and Human Emancipation, establishes the conception of social science as explanatoryand thence emancipatorycritique. Scientific Realism and Human Emancipation starts from an assessment of the impasse of contemporary accounts of science as stemming from an incomplete critique of positivism. It then proceeds to a systematic exposition of scientific realism in the form of transcendental realism, highlighting a conception of science as explanatory of a structured, differentiated and changing world. Turning to the social domain, the book argues for a view of the social order as conditioned by, and emergent from, nature. Advocating a critical naturalism, the author shows how the transformational model of social activity together with the conception of social science as explanatory critique which it entails, resolves thTrade Review"Roy Bhaskar is one of the most original and versatile philosophers of the post-war generation, and one of the very few whose work has had a really lasting and world-wide impact." --William Outhwaite (Times Higher Education Supplement 1986)"Roy Bhaskar’s work stands comparison with the work of the contemporary giants of philosophy on the continent . . . a unique achievement, and it will no doubt be at the centre of discussion, both English and continental, for some time to come." --Roy Edgley"Table of ContentsPreface, Introduction, Chapter One — Scientific Realism and the Aporias of Contemporary Philosophy, Chapter Two — Critical Naturalism and the Dialectic of Human Emancipation, Chapter Three — The Positivist Illusion: Sketch of a Philosophical Ideology at Work, Index

Taylor & Francis Ltd Recognition Equality and Democracy
Book SynopsisThis volume brings together a range of theoretical responses to issues in Irish politics. Its organising ideas: recognition, equality, and democracy set the terms of political debate within both jurisdictions. For some, there are significant tensions between the grammar of recognition, concerned with esteem, respect and the symbolic aspects of social life, and the logic of equality, which is primarily concerned with the distribution of material resources and formal opportunities, while for others, tensions are produced rather by certain interpretations of these ideas while alternative readings may, by contrast, serve as the basis for a systematic account of social and political inequality. The essays in this collection will explore these interconnections with reference to the politics of Northern Ireland and the Republic. The Republic has gone through a period in which its constitution was the focus for a liberal politics aimed at securing personal autonomy, while Northern IrelandâsTable of Contents1.
