Moving to the end of Habermas's conception of the  communicative action, he introduces the concept of `radical choice' as  the key to the transition from the descriptive to the normative.  Phenomenological subjectivity of the intersubjective life-world is  being vindicated as the `arch-value' of all derivative values, or the  first principle for all normative precepts. \u003cbr\u003e  With exceptional acumen and mastery of the philosophical argument, the  author -- a young native Chinese lately trained in a Western  university -- delineates a fascinating route along which the  philosophical question of justification raised in the analytic  tradition can be answered on the basis of phenomenology. \u003cbr\u003e  A noteworthy contribution to the interplay between the Anglo--American  and Continental schools of philosophy. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2012-02-18\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9789401042239\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-94-011-0501-9\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 223.0cm x152.0cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 194.0\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Netherlands","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44481626996876,"sku":"9789401042239","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9789401042239.jpg?v=1767148016","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9789401042239","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
