Lyotard and the End of Grand Narratives

Mehr zum Buch

Challenging modern political philosophy, the work critiques grand narratives that seek to justify knowledge and society, such as those centered on human liberation or scientific immanence. It emphasizes the limitations of totalizing perspectives and advocates for a post-modern approach that embraces diversity, difference, and skepticism toward overarching meta-theories. This shift reflects a deeper understanding of the complexities of knowledge and the societal fabric in a contemporary context.
