Philosophy of History and Action

This volume contains the proceedings of the First Jerusalem Philosophical Encounter – started by the Hebrew University Institute of Philosophy, which took place on December 28-31, 1974.
This volume is divided into three parts. Part One discusses systematic issues in the philosophy of history and action, representing a number of contemporary viewpoints, such as the hermeneutical, the analytical, and the phenomenological. Part Two represents the subject in historical perspective from Kant to Hegel, Marx, contemporary Marxism and Sartre. Part Three discusses what is living and what is dead in the philosophy of history, starting with Raymond Polin's challenging address and continuing with a panel discussion.
