Über die Hälfte der Menschheit lebt in Städten. Für den Soziologen Richard Sennett ist klar: Stadterfahrung ist die Lebensform der Moderne, ein Ringen um Menschsein und gesellschaftliches Miteinander.In der Tradition der klassischen Stadtsoziologie und der Politischen Theorie Hannah Arendts sowie angereichert um Elemente des amerikanischen Pragmatismus nimmt Sennett das Phänomen »Stadt« als Raum der Ermöglichung und Gefährdung von produktiven Begegnungen in den Blick, die für ihn die Voraussetzung für alle Menschwerdungen überhaupt darstellen.Die Studie von Dominik Skala arbeitet erstmals zusammenhängend die Hintergründe von Sennetts Denkens auf und legt in einem Durchgang durch die großen Veröffentlichungen zum Thema »Stadt« anthropologische und sozialethische Grundorientierungen seiner Soziologie frei. Ein systematisch orientierter Teil verortet diese Optionen schließlich im Gesamtwerk Sennetts und skizziert thesenartig Anschlussmöglichkeiten für eine christliche Sozialethik.

Unsicherheit und Kontingenz sind zu paradigmatischen Kategorien für die Interpretation des sozialen und politischen Raumes geworden. Sie wecken Hoffnung auf Veränderung, werden aber auch für gegenwärtige Herausforderungen wie die sogenannte Postfaktizität und den Populismus verantwortlich gemacht. Lucas von Ramin legt den Kern einer postmodernen Sozialphilosophie frei und rekonstruiert damit, wie aus der Kontingenz der Welt doch Zuversicht geschöpft werden kann. Er zeigt auf, dass der normative Anspruch einer solchen Philosophie nicht hoch genug geschätzt werden kann, ihre Grenzen jedoch an der Gegenwart gemessen werden müssen.

Was ist der politische cash value von Richard Rortys Neopragmatismus? Dieses Buch wendet die pragmatische Methode auf Rortys Denken selbst an und fragt u.a.: Ist die Figur der liberalen Ironikerin, die eine pragmatisch-kommunitaristische Verabschiedung des Begründungsproblems verkörpert, überzeugend? In dieser ersten umfassenden deutschsprachigen Monografie zu Rortys Neopragmatismus rekonstruiert Martin Müller dessen Neubeschreibung des Liberalismus als spannungsreiche Verbindung von Romantik und Pragmatismus und arbeitet im Vergleich vor allem mit Habermas, Rawls und Walzer seinen - ethisch motivierten - transformativen Charakter heraus. Das Buch enthält zudem einen E-Mail-Austausch zwischen Richard Rorty und dem Autor. »›Private Romantik, öffentlicher Pragmatismus?‹ ist nicht nur die bisher umfangreichste deutschsprachige Studie zu Rortys Philosophie insgesamt, sondern stellt zugleich eine äußerst reflektierte und kenntnisreiche Verteidigung seines liberalen Sprachgemeinschafts-Kommunitarismus dar.« Dennis Sölch, Philosophisches Jahrbuch, 122/1 (2015) »Diese beeindruckende Studie [setzt] den Maßstab für die weitere Auseinandersetzung mit Rortys Theorie.« Jan Achim Richter, Portal für Politikwissenschaft, 27.03.2014

Die architekturtheoretische Aufarbeitung des weltweit metastasierenden Phänomens der Themenarchitektur ist durch Aggression und Unverständnis charakterisiert. Der Architekturdiskurs disqualifiziert die plakative, zitathafte Künstlichkeit thematischer Simulationsästhetiken als manipulative »Hyperrealität«. Christian Rabl begreift demgegenüber die rezeptiven Kontingenzeindrücke der sekundaristischen, artifiziellen Themenarchitekturen als (unbeabsichtigte) parodistische »Travestien« und als potenziell befreiend, sofern sie essentialistisch sedimentierte Ordnungsvorstellungen delegitimieren. In seiner anti-essentialistischen Neubeschreibung analysiert er dazu u.a. die simulatorischen Stadtästhetiken von Las Vegas, Orlando und Dubai.

American historical writing has traditionally been one of our primary forms of moral reflection. However, David Harlan argues that in the disillusionment following the 1960's, history abandoned its redemptive potential and took up the methodology of the social sciences. In this provocative new book, Harlan describes the reasons for this turn to objectivity and professionalism, explains why it failed, and examines the emergence of a New Traditionalism in American historical writing. Part One, "The Legacy of the Sixties," describes the impact of literary theory in the 1970's and beyond, the rise of women's history, the various forms of ideological analysis developed by historians on the left, and the crippling obsession with professionalism in the 1980's. Part Two, "The Renewal of American Historical Writing," focuses on the contributions of John Patrick Diggins, Hayden White, Richard Rorty, Elaine Showalter, Henry Louis Gates Jr., and others. Harlan argues that at the end of the twentieth century American historical writing is perfectly poised to become what it once was: not one of the social sciences in historical costume, but a form of moral reflection that speaks to all Americans. "[A] wholly admirable work. This book will be talked about for years."-Library Journal

Since the 1960s a resurgence of interest in the moral foundations of politics has fueled debates about the appropriate sources of our political judgments. Ian Shapiro analyzes and advances these debates, discussing them in an accessibly style. He defends a view of politics called critical naturalism as a third way between the neo-Kantian theory of John Rawl's and the contextual arguments of Richard Rorty, Michael Walzer, Alasdair MacIntyre and others. He formulates a new justification for democratic politics and an innovative account of the nature of political argument.
