Why Posterity Matters: Environmental Policies and Future Generations
ISBN: 9780415100182 / Angielski / Twarda / 1994 / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book is a comprehensive philosophical examination of our duties to future generations. It appears at a time when it is becoming increasingly obvious that we can no longer exploit the environment without causing risks for posterity. Dr De-Shalit argues that our obligations towards new generations are a matter of justice, not of charity or supererogation. It becomes our duty to consider them when we distribute access to natural resources, decide on environmental policies and plan budgets. This raises problems for conventional theories of justice. The book puts forward a new communitarian...

The Spirit of Cities: Why the Identity of a City Matters in a Global Age
ISBN: 9780691151441 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 360 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Cities shape the lives and outlooks of billions of people, yet they have been overshadowed in contemporary political thought by nation-states, identity groups, and concepts like justice and freedom. The Spirit of Cities revives the classical idea that a city expresses its own distinctive ethos or values. In the ancient world, Athens was synonymous with democracy and Sparta represented military discipline. In this original and engaging book, Daniel Bell and Avner de-Shalit explore how this classical idea can be applied to today's cities, and they explain why philosophy and the social...

This book shows that it is possible to use experience gained in the business field...
