    The New Ecological Order.Luc Ferry - 1995 - University of Chicago Press.
    Is ecology in the process of becoming the object of our contemporary passions, in the same way that Fascism was in the 30s, or Communism under Stalin? In The New Ecological Order, Luc Ferry offers a penetrating critique of the ideological root of the "Deep Ecology" movement spreading throughout the United States, Germany, and France. Traditional ecological movements, or "democratic ecology," seek to protect the environment of human societies; they are pragmatic and reformist. But another movement has become the refuge (...)

    Heidegger and modernity.Luc Ferry - 1990 - Chicago: University of Chicago Press. Edited by Alain Renaut.
    " Heidegger and Modernity is an intervention in the Heidegger debate in France which many may see as decisive. Its central claim is that the responses of left Heideggerians to continuing disclosures regarding Heidegger's Nazi affiliations fail to come to terms with central ambiguities in his philosophical responses, both early and late, to modernity and technology. . . . Incisive and hard hitting, Luc Ferry and Alain Renault have condensed in a short and tightly organized book both a judicious and (...)

    Homo Aestheticus: The Invention of Taste in the Democratic Age.Luc Ferry (ed.) - 1993 - University of Chicago Press.
    In Homo Aestheticus, Luc Ferry argues that this central problem of aesthetic theory is fundamentally related to the political problem of democratic individualism.

    Why We Are Not Nietzscheans.Luc Ferry, Alain Renaut & Robert de Loaiza (eds.) - 1997 - Chicago, Ill.: University of Chicago Press.
    "To think with Nietzsche against Nietzsche." Thus the editors describe the strategy adopted in this volume to soften the destructive effects of Nietzsche's "philosophy with a hammer" on French philosophy since the 1960s. Frustrated by the infinite inclusiveness of deconstructionism, the contributors to this volume seek to renew the Enlightenment quest for rationality. Though linked by no common dogma, these essays all argue that the "French Nietzsche" transmitted through the deconstructionists must be reexamined in light of the original context in (...)

    Man made God: the meaning of life.Luc Ferry - 2002 - Chicago: University of Chicago Press.
    What happens when the meaning of life based on a divine revelation no longer makes sense? Does the quest for transcendence end in the pursuit of material success and self-absorption? Luc Ferry argues that modernity and the emergence of secular humanism in Europe since the eighteenth century have not killed the search for meaning and the sacred, or even the idea of God, but rather have transformed both through a dual process: the humanization of the divine and the divinization of (...)

    « Ce que j’appelle la “révolution de l’amour”, c’est-à-dire la naissance de la famille moderne, enracinée dans le passage du mariage arrangé au mariage choisi par et pour l’amour, a transformé nos vies. Elle apporte un nouveau principe de sens, qui requiert une nouvelle philosophie. Elle ne bouleverse pas seulement nos existences privées, mais tout notre rapport au collectif. C’est ce que j’appelle le “deuxième humanisme”». Le premier fut un humanisme de la Loi et de la raison. C’était celui des (...)

    La plus belle histoire de la philosophie.Luc Ferry - 2014 - Paris: Robert Laffont. Edited by Claude Capelier.
    C’est une longue épopée, engagée depuis l’Antiquité, qui se poursuit encore aujourd’hui, une aventure pleine de passions, de révoltes, de revirements et de coups de génie. Telle est l’histoire de la philosophie, vue et racontée par Luc Ferry : une conquête obstinée, menée au fil des siècles par une poignée d’explorateurs qui, soudain, trouvent une nouvelle clef pour donner un sens à la condition humaine et bouleversent fondamentalement notre manière de penser. Pourquoi et quand s’est-on mis à philosopher? Comment les (...)

    "Ne croyez surtout pas qu'il s'agisse de science-fiction : 18 avril 2015, une équipe de généticiens chinois entreprenait d'"améliorer" le génome de quatre-vingt-trois embryons humains. Jusqu'où ira-t-on dans cette voie? Sera-t-il possible un jour (bientôt? déjà?) d'"augmenter" à volonté tel ou tel trait de caractère de ses enfants, d'éradiquer dans l'embryon les maladies génétiques, voire d'enrayer la vieillesse et la mort en façonnant une nouvelle espèce d'humains "augmentés"? Nous n'en sommes pas (tout à fait) là, mais de nombreux centres de (...)

    La vie heureuse: sagesses anciennes et spiritualité laïque.Luc Ferry - 2022 - Paris: Éditions de l'Observatoire.
    Des scientifiques, de plus en plus nombreux, nous promettent que la "révolution de la longévité" est pour demain, que nos petits-enfants pourront vivre cent cinquante ans, voire davantage, encore jeunes et en bonne santé physique et psychique. Ce livre fait le point sur ces recherches, sépare science et fantasmes et pose la question de fond : à quoi bon vivre aussi longtemps? Face à cette interrogation, deux conceptions de la vie heureuse s'opposent. La première nous vient de ces sagesses anciennes (...)

    Mythologie et philosophie: le sens des grands mythes grecs.Luc Ferry - 2016 - Paris: Plon.
    "Par dizaines, des expressions issues de la mythologie grecque se sont inscrites dans le langage courant : une "pomme de discorde", un "dédale de rues", prendre le "taureau par les cornes", toucher le "pactole", "tomber de Charybde en Scylla", suivre un "fil d'Ariane", "jouer les Cassandre", etc. Mille références endormies aux Sirènes, à Typhon, Océan, Triton, Python, Sibylle, Stentor, Mentor, Laïus, Argus, OEdipe et à tant d'autres personnages mythiques habitent encore incognito nos conversations de tous les jours.

    On love: a philosophy for the twenty-first century.Luc Ferry - 2013 - Malden, MA: Polity. Edited by Andrew Brown & Claude Capelier.
    All the great ideals that gave life meaning in earlier societies--God, the nation, revolution, freedom, democracy--are in disarray today, widely questioned, and rejected outright by the many people who have lost faith in them. But there is another value, rooted in the birth of the modern family and in the passage from traditional to modern marriage, which has transformed our lives in profound and often unrecognized ways: love. It affects not only our personal lives but many aspects of our social (...)

In Political Philosophy 2 , Luc Ferry provides not only a thorough introduction to German Idealism and its critics, but also an insightful look at contemporary political philosophy.

    What is the Good Life?Luc Ferry - 2013 - University of Chicago Press.
    Has inquiry into the meaning of life become outmoded in a universe where the other-worldiness of religion no longer speaks to us as it once did, or, as Nietzsche proposed, where we are now the creators of our own value? Has the ancient question of the "good life" disappeared, another victim of the technological world? For Luc Ferry, the answer to both questions is a resounding no. In What Is the Good Life? Ferry argues that the question of the meaning (...)
