Jakiej podmiotowości potrzebuje nowoczesny świat? Wokół Senowskiej refleksji na temat wartości azjatyckich

The article is an attempt to analyze and determine problem assertions contained in A. Sen’s essay Human Rights and Asian Values. The essential thesis of the article is that, in his vision of the universality of the values which constitutes the basis of human rights, Sen is a hostage of a typically Western way of thinking. This should lead to a search for an in-depth dialogue with Eastern spiritual traditions, such as Buddhism, for example.
