PublicationCritic of Amy Gutmann : The Constructive Potential of Communitarian Values for Liberalism( 2005)The view of Amy Gutmann is that communitarians have been unsuccessful in undermining liberalism. However, she thinks that their work presents a welcome challenge to it. In her opinion, the communitarian criticism, rather than giving good reason to abandon liberalism, is of use in an attempt to discover a liberalism that successfully combines communitarian with liberal values. This paper examines the extent to which Gutmann successfully shows that communitarian values, like kinship, affection, or a sense of common purpose, have the latent but unrealized capacity to serve to improve liberalism.Type: newspaper articleJournal: Sic et non : Zeitschrift für Philosophie und Kultur im NetzVolume: 1Issue: 2

PublicationTheories of Knowledge : Is a naturalised epistemology bound to leave unanswered some important epistemological questions?For Quine epistemology as it is traditionally approached in philosophy is mistaken because it is based on the untenable concept of foundationalism. However, Quine’s contribution to epistemology is not merely a destructive one; he comes up with a new theory. Anyone assessing this theory, naturalised epistemology, ultimately wants to know whether it provides an answer to the central questions of epistemology. In this paper it is discussed whether naturalised epistemology is bound to leave some of these questions unanswered.Type: newspaper articleJournal: Tabula rasa : Jenenser Zeitschrift für kritisches DenkenIssue: 21
