Résumé

French philosopher Alain Renault argues that modern philosophy contains two perspectives about humans. The first views human beings as capable of arriving at universal moral judgments. The second presents humans as independent individuals sharing nothing with others. Here Renault's goal is to redirect the course of current thinking away from such potentially dangerous reductionist views of humanity.
