Order in the Twilight

Order in the Twilight

Waldenfels (philosophy, Ruhr U., Bochum, Germany) explores the problem of the nature of order after the loss of the idea of a universal or fundamental order. He combines phenomenological methodology with recent work on the theory of order, normativity, dialogue, structuralism, and Gestalt theory. His attitude is more optimistic than deconstructionism and many other modern approaches. Originally published as Ordnung in Zwilicht by Suhrkamp Verlag, Frankfort am Main, in 1987.
