内容記述 | This article examines Kazuya Ishii’s latest book The Human-Scale Economy (2004). In this highly original work, Ishii reevaluates Gandhi’s anti-productivist economic philosophy through the lens of Ivan Illich’s notion of ‘conviviality’. He argues that Gandhi’s economic philosophy, especially its emphasis on the simple living and the moralization of economic activities, can be conceived of as a positive alternative to the mainstream liberal economic thought, which is based on utilitarian ethics and the hypothesis of homo oeconomicus. He states that the Gandhian perspective of the human-scale economy is of particular significance in an age of the global ecological crisis perpetrated by the globalization of free market economy. This article scrutinizes Ishii’s interpretation of Gandhi by recourse to the contemporary themes of social philosophy. First, I introduce the historical trajectory of social philosophy and present its contemporary themes. Social philosophy originated in the 18th century Europe as a particular branch that aimed to analyze the mechanism of social pathologies in the developmental process of modern civilization. As the modern societies developed to a state of complexity and globalization, the late 20th century faced a growing demand for reframing theories and methods of social philosophy in the way that responds to various types of social pathologies of our times. From this vantage, four main themes are identified: (1) the reconceptualization of the grammars of justice an public spheres; (2) rethinking the relations between humans and nature; (3) the democratic control of scientifically and technologically produced risks; (4) the global recognition of cultural diversity. Second, the article examines the contribution of Ishii’s work to the aforementioned themes of the contemporary social philosophy. I remark two major contributions. (a) He discusses Illich’s notion of conviviality in the context of intergenerational justice and presents it as an ethics that counteracts the global ecological crisis of our times. (b) He positively evaluates Gandhi’s ideas of simple living and anti-productivist economic activities, notably the charkha movement and the theory of trusteeship, as a prototype that cultivates an ethic of intergenerational conviviality. Third, I conclude this article by pointing out four research topics which I consider that contribute to further development of Ishii’s thesis of the human-scale economy. (i) Case studies of contemporary alternative economic movements; (ii) assessment of the thesis of human-scale economy through the contemporary theories of localization and community; (iii) multidimensional studies of institutions; (iv) elaboration of the human-scale economy as a public philosophy. |
