| Meer info | Series: Spinoza lectures Being set up in 1995 the Spinoza Chair has seen a formidable number of striking thinkers of our time. Each of them has demonstrated in his or her own way what philosophy and, more broadly, what the humanities have to tell us today. And this indeed is one of the tasks of the Spinoza Chair: demonstrating to a wider public how philosophy in connection with other sciences comprehends its time in thoughts. Cristina Lafont became well known with her writings on Hermeneutic Philosophy, especially about the role of language and socalled “worlddisclosure” in Heidegger. But for some years her research is already focussed on conceptions of deliberative democracy and their possible extension beyond national borders. As Spinoza Chair she continues that line and presents two lectures on a political, moral, and legal subject: on the project of human rights. The subject of human rights appears officially on our intellectual and political agenda since the Universal Declaration of Human Rights in 1948. It appears there offcially because the actual discourse on human rights combines several ideas we are familiar with since the 17th century. Grotius, Pufendorf, Locke and Kant are the heroes of that discourse – which, by the way, should be remembered also in times when the humanities, die Geisteswissenschaften, are underestimated, once again, as ‘soft’ sciences which are writing down history but not making it, like the tough guys and the ‘hard’ sciences apparently do. We all know that there are central controversial points concerning the claim of human rights. Clarifying these points would be a great help, in a global world more than ever. And philosophy still is a central source of conceptual clarification. Cristina Lafont gives us a welcome example for this. (website publisher) |
