Opplysninger | The Davos Debate, pure philosophy and normativity : thinking from the perspective of the history of philosophy / Esther Oluffa Pedersen -- From Kyoto and Hong Kong to Davos : Nishida Kitaro and Mou Zongsan's possible contributions to the Cassirer-Heidegger debate / Tak-Lap Yeung -- Miki and the myth of humanism / Fernando Wirtz.. - "What does it mean to be human? We invite the reader to discuss this most fundamental issue in philosophy and to do so in an intercultural framework. The question of the human was the starting point for a legendary discussion between two German philosophers who met in Davos in 1929. We return to this historical event and re-imagine the debate between Martin Heidegger and Ernst Cassirer from a global perspective. Generating twenty papers from elaborate discussions, our authors contribute to the thought experiment by inviting the Japanese philosopher Nishida Kitarō from Kyoto and other Japanese thinkers into the debate to overcome the challenge of Eurocentrism inherent to these historic days in Davos"--
