Synopsis
Inspired by existential thought, but using ethnographic methods, Jackson explores a variety of compelling topics, including 9/11, episodes from the war in Sierra Leone and its aftermath, the marginalization of indigenous Australians, the application of new technologies, mundane forms of ritualization, the magical use of language, the sociality of violence, the prose of suffering, and the discourse of human rights. Throughout this compelling work, Jackson demonstrates that existentialism, far from being a philosophy of individual being, enables us to explore issues of social existence and coexistence in new ways, and to theorise events as the sites of a dynamic interplay between the finite possibilities of the situations in which human beings find themselves and the capacities they yet possess for creating viable forms of social life.

1st edition. Very good copy in the original stiff-card wrappers; edges slightly nicked and dust-dulled as with age. Remains particularly and surprisingly well-preserved; tight, bright, clean and especially sharp-cornered. Physical description: xxxii, 216 pages; 24 cm. Summary: Throughout this compelling work, Jackson demonstrates that existentialism, far from being a philosophy of individual being, enables us to explore issues of social existence and coexistence in new ways, and to theorize events as the sites of a dynamic interplay between the finite possibilities of the situations in which human beings find themselves and the capacities they possess for creating viable forms of social life." Notes: Includes bibliographical references (pages 195-210) and index. Contents: Preface: The stuggle for being -- The course of an event -- The space of appearances -- Violence and intersubjective reason -- Custom and conflict in Sierra Leone: an essay on anarchy -- What's in a name?: an essay on the power of words -- Mundane ritual -- Biotechnology and the critique of globalisation -- Familiar and foreign bodies -- The prose of suffering -- Whose human rights? -- Existential imperatives -- Bibliography -- Index. Subjects: Philosophical anthropology. Existentialism. Genre: Bibliography. 1 Kg. N° de réf. du vendeur 325486
