Anti-Theses of Unfounded Discourses in the Context of Rationality, Language, Meaning and Knowledge

| description | Many of contemporary post-modern philosophers sought an epistemology that be valued critically. Such an epistemology is far from pure-skepticism. And also, they were skeptical of the possibility of foundationalism, of universal standards of criticism, of complete systems. They use logical, historical or genealogical attacks on foundational concepts. With these attacks, they have alternative methods for justifying and forwarding intellectual inquiry, such as the pragmatic subordination of knowledge to practical action. They dismissed the search for a return to origins. They opposed totalising visions of social, scientific or historical reality, considering them to lack legitimation and preferring local narratives instead. This article aims to anatomize these anti-theses and to open them up for discussion. |
