Hardcover. Condition: Good. [From the library of noted scholar William E. Connolly.] Hardcover and dust jacket. Shelf wear. Binding slightly cocked. Scattered underlining and markings by Connolly through out. "William E. Connolly is Krieger-Eisenhower Professor in the political science department at Hopkins where he teaches political theory. His early book, The Terms of Political Discourse, was awarded the Benjamin Lippincott Award in 1999 as 'a work of exceptional quality that is still considered significant at least 15 years after publication.' In a poll of American political theorists published in PS in 2010, he was ranked the fourth most influential political theorist in America over the last twenty years, after Rawls, Habermas, and Foucault. His work focuses on the issues of democratic pluralism, capitalism, inequality, fascism, and bumpy intersections between capitalism and planetary amplifiers in climate change." - Johns Hopkins University.

Modernity's pretenses: making reality fit reason from Candide to the gulag. Albany: State University of New York Press, 1998, 1st printing number line ending in 1, xi, 161pp., . Series: SUNY series in postmodern culture Modernity's Pretenses undermines modernity's authority through a cultural and historical examination of texts and thinkers from the Enlightenment to post-Stalinist Europe. Racevskis argues that modernity's elaborate designs for rationalizing the world have mainly functioned as covers and alibis (i.e., pretenses). Modernity's promise to liberate humanity from superstition, injustice, and want has been a tactic for making exploitation seem noble and for lending barbarism an aura of progress. Racevskis examines the mechanisms and history of the pretending that mark the modern world and surveys the critical approaches that have proven most effective in dispelling the credibility of pretenses. - CONTENTS: Voltaire and the limits of reason -- The postmodern outlook for Hermeneutics -- Michèle Le Doeuff's philosophy of disinvolvement -- The dialectic of reason -- Foucault's critique of the enlightenment -- Reason in the age of atrocity -- Ethnic identity in a post-Stalinist age. 9780791439548 ISBN 0791439542 8.40.
