ISBN: 9780674971608 / Angielski / Twarda / 2018 / 432 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. "Can the values which individual members of society attach to different alternatives be aggregated into values for society as a whole, in a way that is both fair and theoretically sound? Is the majority principle a workable rule for making decisions? How should income inequality be measured? When and how can we compare the distribution of welfare in different societies?" So reads the 1998 Nobel citation by the Swedish Academy, acknowledging Amartya Sen's important contributions in welfare economics and particularly his work in Collective Choice and Social Welfare. Originally... "Can the values which individual members of society attach to different alternatives be aggregated into values for society as a whole, in a way tha... |

Rationality and Freedom (Revised)
ISBN: 9780674013513 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 752 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Rationality and freedom are among the most profound and contentious concepts in philosophy and the social sciences. In two volumes on rationality, freedom, and justice, the distinguished economist and philosopher Amartya Sen brings clarity and insight to these difficult issues. This volume--the first of the two--is principally concerned with rationality and freedom. Sen scrutinizes and departs from the standard criteria of rationality, and shows how it can be seen in terms of subjecting one's values as well as choices to the demands of reason and critical scrutiny. This capacious... Rationality and freedom are among the most profound and contentious concepts in philosophy and the social sciences. In two volumes on rationality, ... |

ISBN: 9780393329292 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In this sweeping philosophical work, Amartya Sen proposes that the murderous violence that has riven our society is driven as much by confusion as by inescapable hatred.

Elemente einer Theorie der Menschenrechte
ISBN: 9783150140703 / Niemiecki / Miękka / 2020 / 102 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Wenn politisches Engagement und Einsatz für Menschenrechte nicht zu blindem Aktionismus führen sollen, ist es nötig, gelegentlich innezuhalten und sich auf die Theorie der Menschenrechte zu besinnen. Menschenrechte, so Amartya Sen, sind erst einmal moralische Forderungen, die sich auf wichtige und sozial beeinflussbare Freiheiten beziehen. Nicht nur auf bürgerliche und politische Freiheiten, sondern auch auf ökonomische und soziale.
Doch wie kann sich die Menschheit weltweit und dauerhaft auf dieselben Forderungen einigen - trotz all der kulturellen Unterschiede und extrem... Wenn politisches Engagement und Einsatz für Menschenrechte nicht zu blindem Aktionismus führen sollen, ist es nötig, gelegentlich innezuhalten und ...
