Paul Ricoeur: The Promise and Risk of Politics: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Paul Ricoeur: The Promise and Risk of Politics" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

Paul Ricoeur, with Rawls, Walzer, and Habermas as some of his main interlocutors, has developed a substantial and distinctive body of political thought. On the one hand, it articulates a rich conception of the paradoxical character of the domain of politics. On the other, it provides a fresh approach to such major topics as the relationship among politics, economics, and ethics and between concern for universal human rights and respect for cultural plurality. His work, rooted as it is in Aristotle, Kant, and Hegel, also provides resources for a fruitful rethinking of the issues at stake in the liberal-communitarian debate.

Acknowledgments
I owe thanks first and foremost to Professor Paul Ricoeur. In several interviews and letters, he both showed me some important connections among his works and helped me to avoid some blunders. I am, of course, responsible for the flaws that remain. Next, I gratefully acknowledge David Pellauer's constant interest in this study and the invaluable advice and criticisms he gave me. The University of Georgia Libraries interlibrary loan staff, especially Virginia Feher, was of great assistance. Miriam Newton and Ashley Sherman provided fine typing assistance. The University of Georgia Center for the Humanities and the arts supported my research with a much appreciated fellowship.
