Beyond Philosophy Ethics, History, Marxism and Liberation Theology Enrique Dussel Edited by Eduardo Mendieta Rowman & Littlefield Publishers, Inc. http://www.rowmanlittlefield.com/

“Enrique Dussel’s writing offers a unique combination of ethics, postcolonial theory, and liberation theology. For several decades he has been an important voice calling for visions of a better global future. Mendieta’s translations and introduction ably amplify that voice for English reading audiences.”
-Iris Marion Young, professor of political science, University of Chicago

“This fine collection of essays is a must-read for scholars interested in thought that brings the genuinely ‘critical’ dimension back to the world of ideas in this unfortunate age of disciplinary decadence”
-Lewis Gordon, professor at Brown University and president of the Caribbean Philosophical Association

“Mendieta’s knowledge and versatility in both European and Latin American philosophy make him then natural scholar to edit a collection of Dussel’s work on the ethics of liberation. This is a signal contribution that points toward another paradigm of knowledge.”
-Walter Mignolo, Center for Global Studies and the Humanities, Duke University

Enrique Dussel is one of the most prolific Latin American philosophers of the last one hundred years. He has written more than fifty books and over three hundred articles ranging from the history of Latin America philosophy, political philosophy, and church history to theology, ethics, and occasional pieces on the state of Latin American countries. Beyond Philosophy is the definitive English language collection of Dussel’s enormous body of work. It will introduce the reader to the breadth and depth of Dussel’s corpus, covering four major areas: ethics, history, economics, and liberation theology.
