Features: This book includes twelve representative essays by the author. The editor has divided them relatively by topic, combining them into three parts. The first part is titled "Husserl's Phenomenology as a Starting Point," the second part is titled "Heidegger and World Phenomenology," and the third part is titled "Political Phenomenology and Intercultural Phenomenology." The first two parts present the author's interpretation of the philosophies of Husserl and Heidegger, as well as his work in tracing the philosophical connections between the two. They also convey his stance on establishing an anti-subjectivist world phenomenology based on this foundation. The third part represents the author's attempts at thinking in the direction of political phenomenology. This arrangement was formed after multiple discussions between the editor and Professor Held.
