When Reason Goes on Holiday: Philosophers in Politics
Language: English
Published by Encounter Books, New York and London, 2016
ISBN 10: 1594038791 ISBN 13: 9781594038792
First Edition
Hard Cover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st American Ed. 239 pages. Commentary on the back cover by philosophy professor Daniel Bonevac: "Gripping, thoroughly researched and documented, judiciously argued, and alternately depressing and infuriating, Sesardic's courageous book offers the astounding spectacle of some of the greatest minds of the past century--including Carnap, Einstein, Godel,Putnam, and Wittgenstein--adopting odious political views, supporting Lenin, Stalin, and Mao, for simplistic and plainly fallacious reasons. More shocking still is the story of how prominent journals, encyclopedias, and the American Philosophical Association itself have sacrificed academic integrity on the altar of political activism. Great philosophers repeatedly reveal themselves as terrible thinkers when it comes to morality and politics, plunging headlong into complex controversies without drawing elementary distinctions or differentiating degrees of good or evil.". Philosophers in Politics.

Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Hardback. Condition: New. Philosophers usually emphasize the importance of logic, clarity and reason. Therefore when they address political issues they will usually inject a dose of rationality in these discussions, right?Wrong. This book gives a lot of examples showing the unexpected level of political irrationality among leading contemporary philosophers. The body of the book presents a detailed analysis of extreme leftist views of a number of famous philosophers and their occasional descent into apology forand occasionally even active participation intotalitarian politics. Most of these episodes are either virtually unknown (even inside the philosophical community) or have received very little attention.The author tries to explain how it was possible that so many luminaries of twentieth-century philosophy, who invoked reason and exhibited rigor and careful thinking in their professional work, succumbed to irrationality and ended up supporting some of the most murderous political regimes and ideologies. The huge leftist bias in contemporary philosophy and its persistence over the years is certainly a factor but it is far from being the whole story.Interestingly, the indisputably high intelligence of these philosophers did not actually protect them from descending into political insanity. It is argued that, on the contrary, both their brilliance and the high esteem they enjoyed in the profession only made them more self-confident and less cautious, thereby eventually making them blind to their betrayal of reason and the monstrosity of the causes they defended.
