Reihe: Histories of Philosophies in Global Perspectives
ISBN: 978-3-96424-125-2
Verlag: Universitätsverlag Hildesheim
Philosophy is only just beginning—later than other humanities disciplines—to face the challenges of an increasingly globalized world and the associated and inescapable but difficult task of decolonization. For it is not only the exclusion of philosophical traditions from other regions of the world or the exclusion of women—both from the history of philosophy as well as the mainstream philosophical debates of the present—that is under criticism, but more fundamentally the claims to truth and universal validity associated with philosophical theories. The present volume, which brings together selected conference papers and further contributions, focuses in particular on the study of orders of knowledge in philosophy—since they continue to shape the global philosophical landscape to a significant extent today.
