{"product_id":"2940013795075","title":"Postmodern Rationality, Social Criticism, and Religion","description":"Postmodern Rationality, Social Criticism, and Religion presents a pragmatic, post-modern interpretation of the social nature of all human conceiving, asserting, perceiving, explaining, evaluating and justifying, and of the subjects and objects of all such rationality. It shows that such a social interpretation of human rationality leaves ample room for doing social criticism of social practices and for religious encounters with that which is other than all social rationality. This interpretation and demonstration is communicated to the reader through a series of dialogues with the major philosophical writers and movements of the past 150 years.\u2028\u2028\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe text aims at aiding readers to see that neither pursuing knowledge and justice nor remaining religiously faithful need a\/social and a\/historical ultimates. The construction of the form and content of the text is driven by an interest in aiding people to move beyond absolutizing human constructs and thus to minimize domination and oppression and to maximize a religious and ethical passion to be free and to act responsibly to all others who remain wholly other. It is to let ways of living and worshiping which are different from one’s own to remain in their otherness even as one enters into respectful dialogue with them.","brand":"Paragon House Publishers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47073834008816,"sku":"2940013795075","price":9.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940013795075_p0.jpg?v=1763590352","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940013795075","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
