| description | Does cross-cultural philosophy stand in need of a hermeneutical expansion? In engaging with this question, the symposium
focuses upon methodological issues salient to cross-cultural inquiry. Douglas L. Berger lays out the ground for the debate by
arguing for a methodological approach, which is able to rectify the discipline’s colonial legacies and bridge the hermeneutical
distance with its objects of study. From their own perspectives, Hans-Georg Moeller, Paul Roth and A. Raghuramaraju
analyze whether such a processual and hermeneutically-sensitive approach can indeed open up new hermeneutic horizons.
Their responses shed light upon cross-cultural philosophy’s continued embedment in Euroamerican professional philosophy
and how the locality of its knowledge-seeking endeavors may indeed have repercussions on attempts to bridge temporal and
spatial distances. |
