Beschreibung:
Amartya Sen, geb. in Santiniketan, Indien, ist Professor in Harvard und war Master des Trinity College in Cambridge. 1998 erhielt er den Nobelpreis für Ökonomie und im November 2007 den Meister-Eckhart-Preis.
In this sweeping philosophical work, Amartya Sen proposes that the murderous violence that has riven our society is driven as much by confusion as by inescapable hatred. Challenging the reductionist division of people by race, religion, and class, Sen presents an inspiring vision of a world that can be made to move toward peace as firmly as it has spiraled in recent years toward brutality and war.
