Market, State, and Community: Theoretical Foundations of Market Socialism
ISBN: 9780198273400 / Angielski / Twarda / 1990 / 376 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Can we conceive of a market economy that fulfills the ideals of socialism? Here, Miller provides a comprehensive examination, from the standpoint of political theory, of an economy in which market mechanisms retain a central role, but in which capitalist patterns of ownership have been superseded. He shows that liberal ideas of freedom, justice, and efficiency cannot be used to vindicate laissez-faire capitalism, and rebuts left-wing criticisms of a socialist market economy. Justifying his ideas as a workable option, he then presents a new model of the socialist state, whose central idea is...

Citizenship and National Identity
ISBN: 9780745623948 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. A good political community is one whose citizens are actively engaged in deciding their common future together. Bound together by ties of national solidarity, they discover and implement principles of justice that all can share, and in doing so they respect the separate identities of minority groups within the community.
In the essays collected in this book, David Miller shows that such an ideal is not only desirable, but feasible. He explains how active citizenship on the republican model differs from liberal citizenship, and why it serves disadvantaged groups better than...

Half-Billion Dollar Dream
ISBN: 9783565263967 / Angielski / Miękka / 124 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. It started as a Kickstarter campaign and became a religion. "Star Citizen" has raised over half a billion dollars from fans, promising a virtual universe of unprecedented scale. Yet, over a decade later, it remains in development hell, a patchwork of stunning tech demos and broken promises. This is not just a story about a video game; it is a case study in "Feature Creep," the sunk cost fallacy, and the dangerous power of selling dreams.We explore how Chris Roberts convinced millions to pay for digital spaceships that didn't exist, and why backers defend the project with cult-like fervor...

Out of Error: Further Essays on Critical Rationalism
ISBN: 9780754650683 / Angielski / Twarda / 2006 / 314 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. If there has been some modest advance, since Karl Popper's death in 1994, in the general understanding of his critical rationalist theory of knowledge and philosophy of science, there is still widespread resistance both to it and to the recognition of the magnitude of his contribution. Popper long ago diagnosed the logical problems of traditional enlightenment rationalism (as did some irrationalists), but instead of pretending that they are readily solved or embracing irrational defeatism (as do postmodernists), he provided a cogent and liberating rationalist alternative. This book promotes,...

AWOL on the Appalachian Trail
ISBN: 9781935597193 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 346 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In 2003, software engineer David Miller left his job, family, and friends to hike 2,172 miles of the Appalachian Trail. AWOL on the Appalachian Trail is Miller's account of this thru-hike from Georgia to Maine. Listeners are treated to rich descriptions of the Appalachian Mountains, the isolation and reverie, the inspiration that fueled his quest, and the rewards of taking a less conventional path through life. While this audiobook abounds with introspection and perseverance, it also provides useful passages about hiking gear and planning. This is not merely a travel guide; it is a...

On Nationality
ISBN: 9780198293569 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Nationalism is a dominating force in contemporary politics, but political philosophers have been markedly reluctant to discuss, let alone endorse, nationalist ideas. In this book, David Miller defends the principle of nationality, arguing that national identities are valid sources of personal identity; that we are justified in recognizing special obligations to our co-nationals; that nations have good grounds for wanting to be politically self-determining; but that recognizing the claims of nationality does not entail suppressing other sources of personal identity, such as ethnicity. Finally,...

Afterword
ISBN: 9781848618046 / Angielski / Miękka / 2022 / 106 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Afterword is a long poem in fragments, with some long lines of poetry folded over, as it were, onto the next line(s) of the page, as in Walt Whitman, Carl Sandburg and Allen Ginsberg. It is a long poem in fragments, but it might also be seen as a poem sequence: of memories and meditations, dreams and (for want of a better word) visions. It's increasingly invaded by images of destruction and desolation: of nature, of animals, of humankind; with those images prefigured by the opening passages. At the end of the text, the negative emphasis is "turned" upon and against itself into the language...

Alone in the Crowd: Making sense of them and me.
ISBN: 9781517354398 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Through the many colors we all are, we follow the author on a journey from the comforting arms and warm bosom of a black nurse in a polio ward to the open arms and welcoming bosom of a black woman fifty years later. As in David's other books, we are invited to join in the journey, not as mere spectators, but as participants. The story is told within both narrative prose and poetry, enhancing each with the other. This fifth book by the author serves as a prequel to The Women I Am and Walking Bear Footprints, wrapping them into one package of a poet's retrospective of his life that is...

The Judicial Murder of Mary E. Surratt
ISBN: 9780692293737 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 206 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Mary Surratt was the first woman tried and executed by the United States. She owned and ran a boardinghouse in Washington, D.C. where John Wilkes Booth and other conspirators in the assassination of Abraham Lincoln often met. She was tried and convicted of complicity in Lincoln's assassination and hanged on 7 July 1865. This book portrays her as an innocent victim of a vengeful military tribunal that did not have the right to try her for involvement in the assassination plot. Two subsequent events supported this view. One was the 1866 Supreme Court decision Ex parte Milligan, which...

Negotiating Toward Truth: The Extinction of Teachers and Students
ISBN: 9789042002586 / Angielski / Miękka / 1998 / 180 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. For far too many people for far too many years, schooling has been a debilitating, demoralizing, and ultimately dehumanizing experience. Make-shift, half-hearted, and watered-down reform measures have proved ineffective. Reform throws out the bath water, but keeps the baby. Radicalism recognizes not a baby but a beast lurks in the bath water and throws both out. This dramatic redefinition of schooling examines four models of dynamism as provided by Nietzsche, Whitehead, Dewey, and Freire. Nietzsche's af-firmation of dynamism is marred by his elitism. Whitehead understands that inert cripple...
