This forward-thinking collection presents new work that looks beyond the division between the analytic and continental philosophical traditionsâone that has long caused dissension mutual distrust and institutional barriers to the development of common concerns and problems. Rather than rehearsing the causes of the divide contributors draw upon the problems methods and results of both traditions to show what post-divide philosophical work looks like in practice. Ranging from metaphysics and philosophy of mind to political philosophy and ethics the papers gathered here bring into mutual dialogue a wide range of recent and contemporary thinkers and confront leading problems common to both traditions including methodology ontology meaning truth values and personhood. Collectively these essays show that it is already possible to foresee a future for philosophical thought and practice no longer determined neither as analytic nor as continental but instead as a pluralistic synthesis of what is best in both traditions. The new work assembled here shows how the problems projects and ambitions of twentieth-century philosophy are already being taken up and productively transformed to produce new insights questions and methods for philosophy today. .
