商品描述
This book puts forward a harmonious analysis of similarities and differences between two concepts--human minds and cultures--and strives for a multicultural spectrum of philosophical explorations that could assist them in pondering the striking pursuit of envisaging human minds and cultures as an essential appraisal of philosophy and the social sciences. The book hinges on a theoretical understanding of the indispensable liaison between the dichotomy of minds and objectivity residing in semantic-ontological conjectures.
The ethnographic sense of cultures confines the scope of cultural scientism, an evolutionary paradigm on the functionalist turn, where one could enthral the cultural phenomenon from the contentment of the conflict of scientific quandaries. Hence, cultural relativism concedes that cultures have some descriptive contents, like customs, beliefs, moral codes, other minds, etc., that are followed by an individual or a group of people. However, the notion of societal semiotics embarks on the 'semiotic conception of culture' that deploys modernity and values centred on ethical conjectures.
Human Minds and Cultures conspicuously attune the cultural edifice of moral minds and cope with the enduring prospects of ethics, genders, laws, and socio-political affairs. Essential reading for anyone with a sparkling interest in human minds and cultures.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
這本書提出了一種對人類思想和文化之間相似性和差異性的和諧分析，並努力通過多元文化的哲學探索來幫助人們思考將人類思想和文化視為哲學和社會科學的重要評估。該書基於對思想二分法和語義-本體論推測中客觀性之間不可或缺聯繫的理論理解。
文化的民族誌意義限制了文化科學主義的範圍，這是一種關於功能主義轉向的演化範式，人們可以從科學困境的滿足中著迷於文化現象。因此，文化相對主義承認文化具有一些描述性內容，如習俗、信仰、道德規範、其他思想等，這些內容由個人或一群人遵循。然而，社會符號學的概念開始探討“文化的符號學概念”，它運用現代性和以倫理推測為中心的價值觀。
《人類思想與文化》明顯調和了道德思想的文化結構，應對倫理、性別、法律和社會政治事務的持久前景。對於對人類思想和文化有濃厚興趣的人來說，這是必讀之作。
