Description

Le renard sait beaucoup de choses différentes, disaient les Grecs, mais le hérisson en sait une, et de la plus haute importance. Dans son ouvrage majeur, enfin disponible en français, le grand philosophe américain Ronald Dworkin soutient que la valeur sous toutes ses formes est une grande chose : ce qu'est la vérité, ce que la vie signifie, ce que la morale exige ou la justice requiert sont divers aspects d'une même question fondamentale. Aujourd'hui, le doute a tout envahi et menace cette unité, dans le sillage d'une révolution galiléenne qui conduit tant de philosophes contemporains à indexer leurs pensées aux méthodes de la recherche scientifique. Contre cette dictature de la remise en question perpétuelle, Ronald Dworkin aborde de très nombreux domaines tels le scepticisme moral, les champs de l'interprétation littéraire, historique et artistique ou d'anciens systèmes de valeurs relatifs au bien-être et au bien vivre. Nous devons ouvrir le monde des sciences à la notion de valeur, affirme fondamentalement l'auteur.
