Add to basketPaperback. Condition: New. This book is a philosophical exploration of disorientation and its significance for action. Disorientations are human experiences of losing one's bearings, such that life is disrupted and it is not clear how to go on. In the face of life experiences like trauma, grief, illness, migration, education, queer identification, and consciousness raising, individuals can be deeply disoriented. These and other disorientations are not rare. Although disorientations can be common and powerful parts of individuals' lives, they remain uncharacterized by Western philosophers, and overlooked by ethicists.Disorientations can paralyze, overwhelm, embitter, and misdirect moral agents, and moral philosophy and motivational psychology have important insights to offer into why this is. More perplexing are the ways disorientations may prompt improved moral action.Ami Harbin draws on first person accounts, philosophical texts, and qualitative and quantitative research to show that in some cases of disorientation, individuals gain new forms of awareness of political complexity and social norms, and new habits of relating to others and an unpredictable moral landscape. She then argues for the moral and political promise of these gains. A major contention of the book is that disorientations have 'non-resolutionary effects': they can help us act without first helping us resolve what to do. In exploring these possibilities, Disorientation and Moral Life contributes to philosophy of emotions, moral philosophy, and political thought from a distinctly feminist perspective. It makes the case for seeing disorientations as having the power to motivate profound and long-term shifts in moral and political action. A feminist re-envisioning of moral psychology provides the framework for understanding how they do so.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Fearing is a central part of how we relate to each other and the unpredictable world. Fearing badly is a key part of many of our moral failures and fearing better a central part of our moral repair. We might think that fearing is undesirable and should be avoided whenever possible, but, as Ami Harbin argues, avoiding fear causes some of our greatest threats.Fearing well is at the core of what it means to be responsible. By understanding fear asa relational practice, we can see that our relationships with other fearers shape what we fear, what fear feels like, how we identify and understand our fears, and how we cope with them. Bringinginsights from philosophy, psychology, neuroscience, political theory, and mindfulness research, Harbin guides readers in coming to grips with what kind of fearers we want to be and become and what we owe each other when facing what we cannot control. Grounded in real-life cases that will be of interest to many readers--policing, prisons, pandemic, vaccination, borders, migration, parenting, gender, sexuality, health care systems, and more--this text addresses the moral quandaries andcomplexities of the ethics of fearing together. Fearing well is at the core of what it means to be responsible; the avoidance of fear causes some of the greatest dangers. Learning to fear well requires proper understanding of the extent to which fearing is an interpersonal practice. Ami Harbin interweaves insights from philosophy, psychology, neuroscience, political theory, and mindfulness research to grapple with what kind of fearers we want to be and become and what we owe each other when facing what we cannotcontrol.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. The Moral Psychology of Fear brings together contemporary philosophers to consider how fear can shape or compromise moral motivation, and in particular the ways in which fear might motivate morally and politically troubling actions for individuals and communities. While the topics addressed by the chapters vary widely, the contributors share a commitment to analyzing the moral significance of fear for motivation, action, and responsibility in novel and creative ways.Edited by Ami Harbin, the volume is divided into four parts: In Part I, authors lay the groundwork for new philosophical analyses of fear by establishing some theoretical considerations about the connection of fear to injustice and the scope of what kinds of experiences count as fear. Part II turns to everyday experiences of fearlike fear of missing out and fear of ones own deaththat can have surprising moral implications. Part III delves into the way fears have been present in contexts of climate and public health crisis. Part IV offers reflections on the complex position of fear in some of the most charged political issues facing communities: migration, political polarization, violence, and oppressive ideologies more broadly. Contemporary philosophers from diverse philosophical perspectives and backgrounds address the moral psychology of fear within complex social life, where individuals and communities respond to some of the greatest threats of our time.
