Altruistic Reveries:
Perspectives from
the Humanities and
Social Sciences
edited by
Basant
К.
Kapur
Kim-Chong Chong
Altruistic Revtria is a unique volume that arises out of an
Interdisciplinary Conference on Perspectives on Altruism from the
Humanities and Social Sciences organized by the Centre for Advanced
Studies, Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences, National University of
Singapore, in October
1999.
Altruism is a deep, multi-faceted phe¬
nomenon, of great interest and relevance to scholars across the entire
range of disciplines in the Humanities and Social Sciences. The Centre
therefore brought together experts in diverse disciplines
-
Philosophy,
literature, Psychology, Sociology, Economics, and Political Science
-
to
examine and discuss the significance and role of altruism from their
various perspectives. A total of
10
papers in all were presented, and
the volume is completed by an Introduction by the editors and a final
Concluding Chapter by one of the editors.
Among the issues discussed are: the efficacy of motivational altruism
in the resolution of public issues; the genetic origins of akruism and its
attendant risks; the metaphysical basis of altruism; empathy and altru¬
ism; altruism or social exchange-, altruism in wartime-, and the welfare
state. A notable feature of the volume is the various authors have not
talked past one another. Although each is a specialist in his field, the
papers are accessible to those in other fields and to non-specialists.
Both individually and together, they provide a rich set of insights and
perspectives on akruism as a fundamental human and social phenom¬
enon, which will edify, interest, and stimulate all readers of the vol¬
ume.
