A Philosophy of Belonging: Persons, Politics, Cosmos Greenaway James
James Greenaway offers a philosophical guide to understanding, affirming, and valuing the significance of belonging across personal, political, and historical dimensions of existence.A sense of belonging is one of the most meaningful experiences of anyone's life. In A Philosophy of Belonging, Greenaway treats the notion of belonging as an intrinsically philosophical one. Inversely, the discovery that one does not belong can be one of the most upsetting experiences.
