Description
Summary:One talks about the Enlightenment and its opposite, the counter-Enlightenment, as though thinkers in intellectual history could easily be deposited in one or other of the categories. The aim of this special edition is twofold: one, to discuss whether such a poorly nuanced historical categorization does service to those thinkers on the periphery of ethical, political and social thought. And two, to trace the relationship of the counter-enlightenment (and necessarily its opposite) to violence, conflict and protest. The aim of the journal as a whole is to reinstate certain possible alternatives into the heart of our historical tradition through the reorientation and weakening of the Enlightenment and counter-Enlightenment binary opposition.
