Cosmopolitan Civility

<p><b>Essays reflecting on the prolific pioneering and wide-ranging scholarship of Fred Dallmayr.</b></p><p>Prolific and pioneering Fred Dallmayr has been an active scholar for over fifty years. His research interests include modern and contemporary political theory hermeneutics phenomenology the Frankfurt School continental political thought democratic theory multiculturalism environmentalism and cosmopolitanism. Dallmayr is also one of the founders of comparative political thought and his interest in non-Western political theory spans Chinese Islamic Indian Buddhist and Latin American traditions. In emulation of the vast interdisciplinary and international character of Dallmayr's work this book draws upon senior and emerging scholars from an array of disciplines and countries with essays that are philosophical (in the Western and non-Western traditions) cultural and/or political and international. Dallmayr himself responds to the essays in a concluding chapter.</p>
