Postmodern Jewish Ethics - Shmuly Yanklowitz - Bog

- Emerging Social Justice Paradigms

Bag om Postmodern Jewish Ethics

When the news of the world moves at supersonic speed, and the rising tides of rancor and partisan division take hold of the popular imagination, what is the best course of action to stem the tide of bitterness and resentment? Are we to remain cynical and silent or are we to be bold and audacious? Are we to stay within the squares of mediocrity, or launch ourselves head first into new, dynamic modes of thought and interaction? The postmodern mind allows for the greatest expansion of human potential, while still absorbing all preceding knowledge. It is in this vein of discovery and boundary-breaking where Rabbi Dr. Shmuly Yanklowitz, one of this generation's most forward-looking Jewish thinkers, takes his latest volume of Jewish philosophy and virtues. In POSTMODERN JEWISH ETHICS: EMERGING SOCIAL JUSTICE PARADIGMS, Rabbi Yanklowitz explores the nexus of traditional texts and contemporary attitudes in response to the constant state of flux we call the present. Contained within these pages are carefully rendered Jewish meditations about the delicate nature of the modern condition, the call for more pronounced participation in animal welfare issues, the realities of fostering vulnerable children, examining the damage of social instability, and more. POSTMODERN JEWISH ETHICS is Rabbi Yanklowitz's most personal and daring volume of Jewish thought to date. Readers looking for insight will walk away fresh with more questions and purpose. That is the way it should be.
