Summary
"Spirituality and Dialectics is a passionate and rigorous argument against nihilism and a manifesto for the party of meaning and hope. It demonstrates how we can ground principles of meaning and value against the aesthetic and intellectual hegemony of the Enlightenment - culminating most currently through postmodernity - as the basis for a critique of all present injustice. What emerges is a vision of a new social order that permits the full development of human social capacities."--BOOK JACKET.
