Books by Jozef Niznik

This book attempts to show the context of the clash of the fundamental values "democracy" and "solidarity" which serve as the leading political principles of European integration. Therefore several further concepts and problems have been discussed such as the issue of identity, the concept of citizenship and the problem of nationalism.

Ernest Gellner also turns against Rorty's pragmatism, which he denounces as a product of the Enlightenment roots of American culture and its centuries of political and economic stability.
