The postmodern deconstruction of the human now requires a reconstructive moment. In response, the author articulates a new and explicitly posthumanist humanism using the framework developed by Jean-Paul Sartre in his later Marxist-Existentialist works. Sartre’s unique dialectical and hermeneutical methods allow us to reconceptualize the human beyond traditional dichotomies of individual\/social and freedom\/necessity. The author argues that the individual and the social should be understood as existing within a dynamic, co-constituting interrelation, and that individual autonomy is not at odds with, but rather fundamentally enabled by, the social.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eContents: Materiality in Human Existence: The Practico-Inert, Scarcity, and Needs – Reconceptualizing the Individual and the Social: The Theory of Objective Spirit – The Co-Constitution of the Individual and the Social – Problems and Possibilities for Human Relationships – The Posthuman Condition and Difference: The Nature of Social Identities.","brand":"Peter Lang AG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51044214047063,"sku":"9783631616758","price":31.21,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9783631616758.jpg?v=1750960887","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/sartre-and-posthumanist-humanism-9783631616758","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
