Genuine Individuals and Genuine Communities: A Roycean

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Kegley, Jacqueline Ann K., PUBLISHER: Vanderbilt University Press, A cogent blueprint for ong>theong> development of a "public philosophy" that integrates shared principles and values into our troubled social structure and articulates a consensus vision of society's future. ong>Theong> continuing vitality of American thought stems, to a large extent, from ong>theong> application of its historical roots embedded in contemporary problems and issues. Yet for some time ong>theong> signal contributions of Josiah Royce () have been overlooked in ong>theong> formulation and shaping of critical areas of public policy. In this brilliantly articulated ong>newong> book, ethicist Jacquelyn Kegley carefully explicates and enlarges ong>theong> scope of Roycean thought and shows that Royce's views on public philosophy have direct and valuable application to current social problems. Working from ong>theong> assumption that issues of family, education, and health care are not merely exigent political tempests but areas of genuine, long-lasting concern, Kegley opens fresh perspectives on Royce's philosophy by introducing and applying his ideas to discussions of how we care for ourselves and our society today. She analyzes Roycean criteria that can be successfully used to nourish developmental stages within families, promote intellectual and social growth in schooling and scholarship, and sustain physical and mental well-being throughout ong>theong> life cycle. "Genuine Individuals and Genuine Communities" should be a springboard for ong>theong> reassessment of contemporary public policy and ong>theong> reapplication of ong>theong> American philosophical legacy to current issues and decisions. Kegley's work serves as a solid contribution both to public philosophy and to ong>theong> continued vitality of American thought, and it extends ong>theong> range of both.
