  • This pipecast presents an overview of Oakeshott's political philosophy, with reference to Oakeshott's conception of the nature of political action, his concepts of Civil and Enterprise Association, his critique of Rationalism, and his own vision of politics as based on traditional practice within the context of a liberal, pluralist, social order based on the rule of law.

    Doing homework for a Government And Politics A Level and this was very useful.
    I think Oakeshott is a really interesting philosopher.

      Yes he is. Very civilised and clear thinking. Such qualities we need today

    Great "pipecast"! As someone new to Oakeshott, this was quite helpful. Thanks!
    PS.
    Some interesting parallels between F.A. Hayek, Michael Polanyi and Oakeshott...

    • @stjohnspipecasts6801
      @stjohnspipecasts6801  Před 3 lety +1

      Thank you very much. Yes I can see your point about Hayek with notions of a spontaneous order not planned by anyone - though Oakeshott was quite critical of the Road to Serfdom as an example of dogmatic programmatic thinking.

    That's some serious pipe smoking. Thanks - doing a comparative study of Oakeshott and Strauss and Hobbes.

    I’m new to studying political philosophy and I have a question for you. The question is what do you think is the right method for answering the big questions in political philosophy?

    This pipecast demonstrates in a gentle and refined way how utterly dictatorial our present political culture has become. (It reminds me in some way of the Aristotelian term of 'phronesis', i. e. judgements should be made in the light of practical experience and individually from case to case, not generally and according to first principles)

    • @stjohnspipecasts6801
      @stjohnspipecasts6801  Před 4 měsíci

      Thank you for your comment. Opinion has definitely come to displace practical experience in most of life. I suspect that too many people now live distanced from the discipline of practical skill and instead specialise in having emotive opinions about things.

    The narrator is attributing his own opinions to Oakeshott's, as is evident in his comments on carbon pricing.
