Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Most people would agree that we should behave and act in a responsible way. Yet only 200 years ago, responsibility was only of marginal importance in discussions of law and legal practice, and it had little ethical significance. What is the significance of the fact that responsibility now plays such a central role in, for example, work, the welfare state, or the criminal justice system? What happens when individuals are generally expected to think of themselves as responsible agents? And what are the consequences of the fact that the philosophical analysis of responsibility focuses almost exclusively on conditions of agency that are mostly absent from real life?In this book, Frieder Vogelmann demonstrates how large parts of philosophy have fallen under responsibilitys spell, and he uses a Foucauldian approach in an attempt to break it. The three axes of power, knowledge, and self are used in a detailed analysis of the practical regimes of labour (including the welfare state), criminality (including policing, punishment practices, and criminal proceedings), and philosophy, and of the two subject positions required by responsibility those of the attributors and bearers of responsibility within them. The power relations between these positions, which Vogelmann carefully excavates from the grounds of our practices, reveal that the deck is stacked unevenly from the start. The translation of this work was funded by Geisteswissenschaften International Translation Funding for Humanities and Social Sciences from Germany, a joint initiative of the Fritz Thyssen Foundation, the German Federal Foreign Office, the collecting society VG WORT and the Boersenverein des Deutschen Buchhandels (German Publisher & Booksellers Association) Offering an alternative outlook on contemporary (practical) philosophy, this highly original book provides a conceptual history of responsibility within philosophy, including a critical analysis of the relation between philosophy and its social and political contexts.
