Principled positions: postmodernism and the rediscovery of value

London: Lawrence & Wishart (1993)
  Copy   BIBTEX

Abstract

The deconstruction of all 'principled positions' creates a value vacuum which, in turn, leads to a state of ethical and political paralysis. The contributors to Principled Positions ponder these dilemmas and try to build bridges between the modernist absolutes of truth, value and justice and the anti-totalising spirit of postmodernism.
