Textul de pe ultima copertă
“In the West, pragmatism tends to have the dismal reputation of being humdrum and tied to status quo politics. But this book is anything but humdrum. It injects into the topic a welcome, uplifting elan by showing its connection with idealism, spirituality and religious faith. I think Dewey would have been pleased.”
--Fred Dallmayr, Emeritus Faculty, University of Notre Dame, USA
“One of the hardest things to do in the world today is to reach out to multiple communities and perspectives whose voices are disparate and seemingly irreconcilable. This book has taken us on this hard journey here with attention to the practical yet spiritual aspects of the search for freedom and solidarity.”
--David Blake Willis, Professor of anthropology and education, Fielding Graduate University, USA
“This rich collection of essays reminds us that genuine spirituality bears cultural and social fruits. The book invites one to consider thought-provoking ways of articulating spiritual life with the common good in our world of confusion and conflicts.”
--Patrick Laude, Professor, Georgetown University, Doha, Qatar
