Book Description:
|
How does one surmount the obstacle of culturally diverse ethical standards? Ashwani Peetush approaches this question and the challenges of prevailing liberal philosophical theories of cultural diversity to offer a more global, pluralist framework for approaching such theories - his key point is about constructing dialogue: not necessarily forging agreements but engendering discussion and through it, understanding.
