- W4289144433 abstract "Uses 20th century existentialism to confront the challenge of political judgement after moral absolutism How can we reinvigorate the human capacity for political judgement as a practical activity capable of addressing the uncertainties of our postfoundational world? The book takes up this challenge by drawing on the historically attuned perspective of 20th-century philosophies of existence – in particular the work of Jean-Paul Sartre, Simone de Beauvoir, Albert Camus and Hannah Arendt. Displacing the lingering rationalist temptations, Maša Mrovlje engages these thinkers’ aesthetic sensibility to delve into the experiential reality of political judgement and revivify it as a worldly, ambiguous practice. The purpose is to illustrate the prescient political significance of existentialists’ narrative imagination on two contemporary perplexities of political judgement: the problem of dirty hands and the challenge of transitional justice. This engagement reveals the distinctly resistant potential of worldly judgement in its ability to stimulate our capacities of coming to terms with and creatively confronting the tragedies of political action, rather than simply yielding to them as a necessary course of political life. Key Features Focuses on the activity of judging as a paramount political ability Questions the traditional understanding of the relationship between thought and action Unearths the distinct critical, resistant potential contained in worldly judgement Methodologically distinctive: combines textual and conceptual analysis with a narrative approach, drawing on literary sensibility to enrich the flow of theoretical argumentation Illustrates the political significance of the existential narrative imagination on concrete examples that challenge and perplex our capacity to judge politically Opens new vistas of inquiry in the fields of ethics of narrative and politics of recognition" @default.
