Human Rights as Social Construction
ISBN: 9781107612945 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Most conceptions of human rights rely on metaphysical or theological assumptions that construe them as possible only as something imposed from outside existing communities. Most people, in other words, presume that human rights come from nature, God, or the United Nations. This book argues that reliance on such putative sources actually undermines human rights. Benjamin Gregg envisions an alternative; he sees human rights as locally developed, freely embraced, and indigenously valid. Human rights, he posits, can be created by the average, ordinary people to whom they are addressed, and that...

Thick Moralities, Thin Politics: Social Integration Across Communities of Belief
ISBN: 9780822330813 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. At the center of pluralistic societies like the United States is the question of how to make broadly consensual social policy in light of the different moral values held by a heterogeneous population varying in ethnicity, sexual identity, religion, and political belief. In" Thick Moralities, Thin Politics" Benjamin Gregg develops a new approach to dealing with conflicting values in the policymaking process. Arguing that public policy suffers when politics are laden with moral doctrines, Gregg contends that "thickly" moral public philosophies cannot be the basis of a successful political...

Coping in Politics with Indeterminate Norms: A Theory of Enlightened Localism
ISBN: 9780791457825 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 220 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Are social equity, political fairness, and legal justice possible within a liberal political order, even if norms are indeterminate? The modern world is distinguished by both its complexity and the absence of a single theory, principle, or tradition with the authority to constrain us. Coping in Politics with Indeterminate Norms demonstrates that while moral validity is relative rather than absolute, and cultural meanings local rather than universal, social integration and democratic politics are still attainable goals. Benjamin Gregg fashions a theory that combines proceduralism with...

The Human Rights State: Justice Within and Beyond Sovereign Nations
ISBN: 9780812248050 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The nation state operates on a logic of exclusion: no state can offer citizenship and legal rights to all comers. From the logic of exclusion a state derives its sovereign power. Yet this exclusivity undermines the project of advancing human rights globally. That project operates on a logic of inclusion: all people, regardless of citizenship status or territorial location, would everywhere be recognized as bearers of human rights. In practice, human rights are afforded, if at all, then only to citizens of those few states that sometimes regard human rights as moral necessities of domestic...
