Reviews

Discourse ethics, as a meta-text, has provided the means to judge whether particularistic desires and interests are morally right or wrong, says Garcia, and he explores the shortcomings of such a mode of unilinearity and its effects on discourse ethics in particular, arguing that it may not be effective enough for an exhaustive expressability. As an alternative, he introduces hypertext writing, what he calls Multiplicity of Discursive Paths, that gives individuals a better emancipatory expressability-uncastigated by the chronology of a rigid method of expression-so much needed in a post-truth culture. Distributed in North America by Turpin Distribution. -- Annotation (c)2019 * (protoview.com) *
