International Studies Review
“Ever since the end of the cold war, Habermas has been
trying to define an alternative vision of a new world order. In
this collection, he presents that vision in its most accessible and
passionate form.”
International Journal of Urban and Regional
Research
“A useful introduction to Habermas's practical philosophy
in the context of some of the most pressing issues of our
age.”
Anthony J. Carroll, Heythrop Journal
“No-one articulates the 'European' ideal with greater
intellectual clarity, philosophical acumen and humanist fervour
than Jürgen Habermas. In this collection of essays and
interviews, provocatively entitled The Divided West,
Habermas makes a very candid criticism of the current US
preoccupation with power.”
S Parvez Manzoor, Muslim World Book Review
“This book is an indispensable guide to anyone seriously
interested in how to think about the complex question of terrorism.
It exposes subtle and blatant biases that characterize much
contemporary discussion of the subject and offers a judicious and
closely argued response to terrorism: ultimately the only realistic
one.”
Lord Bhikhu Parekh, University of Westminster
