商品描述
The second theme that emerges through the respective chapters (each of which constitutes the text for a lesson in a course for Ph.D. students) is that of the relationship between "equality" and "vulnerability." Here the idea is to elaborate a concept of "vulnerability" that is not underpinned by what we in Italy call an "anthropology," that is, a fixed notion of human nature. Instead this concept should be comprehensible and graspable solely on the basis of the recognition of decisions and actions that are merely "efficacious," that function "for what they are, and what they do." This recognition doesn't even need to be explicitly articulated by these authors with any specific, deliberately conscious awareness.
The goal is not to identify a precise tradition of thought, one which elaborates a given line of reflection, but rather to highlight certain "themes" that emerge in the texts examined, even as the authors write with and for their own specific, contingent set of motives, which differ from time to time and place to place. These authors include some who are widely known, such as Dante, Machiavelli, and Beccaria. At times they are figures who typify certain key historical episodes, such as the Risorgimento (Giuseppe Mazzini) or Fascism (Cesare Lombroso and Santi Romano), while others reflect certain aspects of a contemporary debate (Pasolini and the "Braibanti affair").
The book is based on lectures given for a 2021 Ph.D. Course at the University of California, Berkeley's Department of Italian Studies.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
本書的主要目標之一是確定在意大利政治哲學歷史上一些關鍵作者的著作中,是否可以找到「效能」的概念。在法律哲學中,「效能」是指一項規範有效影響公民行為的能力。「效能原則」是指當一項命令或規則在實踐中被有效遵循時,它便存在於此。這裡所說的「效能」,是指規範現象自我辯護的觀念,而不依賴於外在的價值體系(如「自然法」)。在此進行的幾篇文本的檢視,構成了對這一主題的反思,並不聲稱具備系統性。這些文本大致按照歷史順序被歸類,因為它們共同尊重其推理和決策所依賴的背景,這賦予它們一種特有的嚴酷現實主義風格,有時依賴於對傳統規範類別的極簡主義使用。
第二個主題是各章節中所浮現的「平等」與「脆弱性」之間的關係。這裡的想法是闡述一個不以我們在意大利所稱的「人類學」為基礎的「脆弱性」概念,即一種固定的人性觀念。相反,這一概念應該僅基於對僅僅是「有效」的決策和行動的認識,這些行動「本身及其所做的事情」便能被理解和掌握。這種認識甚至不需要這些作者以任何特定的、有意識的方式明確表達。
本書的目標不是要確定一個精確的思想傳統,或是闡述某一特定的反思路線,而是要突顯在所檢視的文本中浮現的某些「主題」,即使這些作者是以他們自己特定的、偶然的動機來寫作,這些動機隨時間和地點而異。這些作者中包括一些廣為人知的人物,如但丁、馬基雅維利和貝卡里亞。有時他們是某些關鍵歷史事件的典型人物,如復興運動(朱塞佩·馬志尼)或法西斯主義(切薩雷·倫博索和聖地·羅馬諾),而其他人則反映當代辯論的某些方面(帕索里尼和「布萊班提事件」)。
本書基於2021年在加州大學伯克利分校意大利研究系所開設的博士課程的講座。
