Beyond Philosophy : Ethics, History, Marxism, and Liberation Theology

Enrique Ambrosini Dussell is a moral philosopher, a philosopher of liberation and author of many books on the subject.

But for him, philosophy must be liberated so that it may contribute to social liberation.

In one sense, "beyond philosophy" means to be beyond contemporary, academicized, professionalized and "civilized" philosophy by turning to all that demystifies the autonomy of philosophy and turns our attention to its sources. "Beyond philosophy" also means to go beyond philosophy in the Marxian sense of abolishing philosophy by realizing it.

This is an English language verion of Dussel's enormous body of work, allowing the reader to get a good sense of the breadth and depth of Dussel's opus, covering four main areas - ethics, economics, history and liberation theology.
