Henry Friendly is frequently grouped with Oliver Wendell Holmes, Louis Brandeis, Benjamin Cardozo, and Learned Hand as the best American jurists of the twentieth century. In this first, comprehensive biography of Friendly, David M. Dorsen opens a unique window onto how a judge of this caliber thinks and decides cases, and how Friendly lived his life. During his time on the Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit (1959 1986), Judge Friendly was revered as a conservative who exemplified the tradition of judicial restraint. But he demonstrated remarkable creativity in circumventing...

Climate Change Justice
ISBN: 9780691166667 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Climate change and justice are so closely associated that many people take it for granted that a global climate treaty should--indeed, must--directly address both issues together. But, in fact, this would be a serious mistake, one that, by dooming effective international limits on greenhouse gases, would actually make the world's poor and developing nations far worse off. This is the provocative and original argument of Climate Change Justice. Eric Posner and David Weisbach strongly favor both a climate change agreement and efforts to improve economic justice. But they make a... Climate change and justice are so closely associated that many people take it for granted that a global climate treaty should--indeed, must--direct... |

ISBN: 9780521034876 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This valuable study illuminates the idea of nobility as display, as public performance, in Renaissance and seventeenth-century literature and society.

Pathways of Power: The Dynamics of National Policymaking
ISBN: 9781626161061 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Conventional treatments of the policy process portray a single, idealized model of "how a bill becomes law"; journalistic treatments tend to emphasize the role of special interests and campaign contributions to Congress; and many college textbooks describe a common set of stages through which all policies progress, from agenda setting to legitimation to implementation. While these approaches have their merits, they fail to convey--much less explain--the great diversity of political processes that shape specific policies in contemporary Washington. Rather than a single route along which all...
