Synopsis
In this work, Richard Bernstein explores the ethical and political dimensions of the modernity/postmodernity debate. He argues that it should be understood as what Heidegger calls a "Stimmung" or a "mood" which exerts a powerful influence on current thinking. He examines the strengths and weaknesses of the ethical-political views of such thinkers as Heidegger, Derrida, Habermas and Rorty, showing how they have contributed to the new mood or constellation of ideas. This new constellation has put ethical and political issues back on the philosophical agenda, forcing people to confront the Socratic question "How should I live?".

From the Back Cover
Bernstein argues that modernity / postmodernity should be understood as a pervasive mood - what Heidegger called a Stimmung - one that is amorphous, shifting, and protean but that nevertheless exerts a powerful influence on our current ways of thinking and acting.
