Social philosophy

Summary

Social philosophy examines questions about the foundations of social institutions, social behavior, and interpretations of society in terms of ethical values rather than empirical relations. Social philosophers emphasize understanding the social contexts for political, legal, moral and cultural questions, and the development of novel theoretical frameworks, from social ontology to care ethics to cosmopolitan theories of democracy, natural law, human rights, gender equity and global justice. There is often a considerable overlap between the questions addressed by social philosophy and ethics or value theory. Other forms of social philosophy include political philosophy and jurisprudence, which are largely concerned with the societies of state and government and their functioning. Social philosophy, ethics, and political philosophy all share intimate connections with other disciplines in the social sciences and the humanities. In turn, the social sciences themselves are of focal interest to the philosophy of social science. The philosophy of language and social epistemology are subfields which overlap in significant ways with social philosophy. Some topics dealt with by social philosophy are: Agency and free will The will to power Accountability Speech acts Situational ethics Modernism and postmodernism Individualism Identity Property Rights Authority Ideologies Cultural criticism A list of philosophers that have concerned themselves, although most of them not exclusively, with social philosophy: Theodor Adorno Giorgio Agamben Hannah Arendt Alain Badiou Mikhail Bakunin Jean Baudrillard Walter Benjamin Jeremy Bentham Judith Butler Thomas Carlyle Chanakya Rabbi Manis Friedman Cornelius Castoriadis Noam Chomsky Confucius Simone de Beauvoir Guy Debord Vincenzo Di Nicola Émile Durkheim Terry Eagleton Friedrich Engels Julius Evola Michel Foucault Sigmund Freud Erich Fromm Giovanni Gentile Henry George Erving Goffman Jürgen Habermas Georg Wilhelm Hegel Martin Heidegger Thomas Hobbes Max Horkheimer Ivan Illich Carl Jung Ibn Khaldun Peter Kropotkin Jacques Lacan R.
