Loving your Neighbor in a Secular Age

Agape in the Philosophy of Charles Taylor

Beschreibung

Solidarity with those who suffer is a core value of the West, yet the philosophical basis for altruism is becoming increasingly tenuous. This work examines agape, or Christian love of one's neighbor, as a source of motivation for altruism in a pluralistic and secular society. It draws on Charles Taylor, paying particular attention to moral realism, historical account of secularization, and politics of recognition. The volume thus provides an exploration of the role of religion in the public sphere and an original introduction to the work of the Canadian philosopher.
