Jean-Marc Ferry, Theoretical Reason and Practical Reason
After the separation established by the Moderns between "practical reason" and "theoretical reason", the Contemporaries are engaging into a pragmatic reconstruction of deconstructed reason under the watchword of the "destruction of metaphysics" or of the "critic of instrumental reason". In relation to classical representations of philosophy, the concept of "reason" as well as the articulation of its various features are then redefined in depth.
