Recenzii
A learned and spirited defense of prudence that draws on an eclectic array of sources from history, philosophy, and political theory, [Hörcher's] book offers a rich reconsideration of an ancient virtue that should remain central to any form of conservatism.
Hörcher poses the catchy question, which has been examined by a number of major conservative thinkers of the past, including Nisbet, Kirk and others: is conservatism an ideology or is it not? ... Hörcher's book is a valuable piece added to the huge and magnificent mosaic, which helps to map the philosophical roots of conservatism.
In this wise and timely book, Ferenc Hörcher calls for a new approach to politics based on the Aristotelian virtue of prudence. In contrast to forms of conservatism that aim at maximizing economic freedom or that buttress national ambitions with amoral realism, Hörcher's conservatism focuses on the need for rulers and citizens to cultivate practical wisdom-a wisdom to be discovered above all in the study of history and the Western tradition of prudent statecraft. He urges the rebuilding of politics in a way that would restore a proper sense of the constraints imposed by our cultural traditions and by the human condition more generally. Required reading for anyone disturbed by the collapse of statesmanship in the contemporary world.
[The Political Philosophy of Conservatism] will be helpful to readers less familiar with the general themes and historical method of the contemporary Cambridge school of political thought.
