Toward a Postmetaphysical Humanism
Globalization and Community
As humanity becomes increasingly interconnected through globalization, the question of whether community is possible within culturally diverse societies has returned as a principal concern for contemporary thought.
Current Discourse and Challenges
Lorenzo Simpson charges that the current discussion is stuck at an impasse—between postmodernism's fragmented notions of cultural difference and humanism's homogeneous versions of community.
An Alternative Approach
Simpson proposes an alternative—one that bridges cultural differences without erasing them. He argues that we must establish common aesthetic and ethical standards incorporating sensitivity to difference if we are to achieve cross-cultural understanding.
