As Western hegemony wanes, the promise of universal values is unmasked as a parochial inheritance; and as AI systems multiply, universal truths transform into computed artefacts emerging from a particular code and training.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eConcrete Universality\u003c\/i\u003e, Lorenzo Marsili argues that the choice is not between a bankrupt universalism and an 'anything goes' relativism. He proposes a third path: universality as a practice of worldmaking. Drawing on Chinese philosophy, European thought and the contemporary metaphysics embedded in artificial intelligence and quantum mechanics, Marsili develops the concept of \u003ci\u003eontopoiesis\u003c\/i\u003e: the idea that reality is continuously produced through relations and forms of mediation. This approach gives rise to a new political method: 'concrete universality' emerges from situated encounters yet gains planetary resonance, from AI regulation to climate policy. Here, universality is not a static ideal, but an unfinished voyage whose horizons move as humanity moves.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book is an erudite and impassioned manifesto for a planetary philosophy and a way of weaving together a fragmenting planet, one universal at a time.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lorenzo Marsili","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56456690663766,"sku":"9781509576234","price":22.44,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0886\/3206\/6390\/files\/9781509576234.jpg?v=1793697511","url":"https:\/\/www.bookshop.lt\/ru\/products\/concrete-universality-9781509576234","provider":"Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
