Minimizing Harm: A New Crime Policy for Modern America
ISBN: 9780813368047 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Research suggests that crime prevention is generally more effective than harsh punishment. But the public fears victimization and demands punishment for the perpetrators of its fears. Consequently, any policy that moves toward prevention, treatment, and alternative modes of punishment must simultaneously move toward reducing the level of victimization in a direct and readily comprehensible manner. The fifteen authors of this volume articulate a pragmatic crime policy for America which combines academic insights about crime prevention with the realities of contemporary politics. The studies...

Soul, Self, and Society: The New Morality and the Modern State
ISBN: 9780199348657 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 502 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Political and social commentators regularly bemoan the decline of morality in the modern world. They claim that the norms and values that held society together in the past are rapidly eroding, to be replaced by permissiveness and empty hedonism. But as Edward Rubin demonstrates in this powerful account of moral transformations, these prophets of doom are missing the point. Morality is not diminishing; instead, a new morality, centered on an ethos of human self-fulfillment, is arising to replace the old one. As Rubin explains, changes in morality have gone hand in hand with changes in the...

Beyond Camelot: Rethinking Politics and Law for the Modern State
ISBN: 9780691133973 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 496 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This book argues that many of the basic concepts that we use to describe and analyze our governmental system are out of date. Developed in large part during the Middle Ages, they fail to confront the administrative character of modern government. These concepts, which include power, discretion, democracy, legitimacy, law, rights, and property, bear the indelible imprint of this bygone era's attitudes, and Arthurian fantasies, about governance. As a result, they fail to provide us with the tools we need to understand, critique, and improve the government we actually...

In an Uncertain World: Tough Choices from Wall Street to Washington
ISBN: 9780375757303 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 480 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Robert Rubin was sworn in as the seventieth U.S. Secretary of the Treasury in January 1995 in a brisk ceremony attended only by his wife and a few colleagues. As soon as the ceremony was over, he began an emergency meeting with President Bill Clinton on the financial crisis in Mexico. This was not only a harbinger of things to come during what would prove to be a rocky period in the global economy; it also captured the essence of Rubin himself--short on formality, quick to get into the nitty-gritty.
From his early years in the storied arbitrage department at Goldman Sachs to his current... Robert Rubin was sworn in as the seventieth U.S. Secretary of the Treasury in January 1995 in a brisk ceremony attended only by his wife and a few col...

Joseph Conrad and the Fiction of Autobiography
ISBN: 9780231140058 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Edward W. Said locates Joseph Conrad's fear of personal disintegration in his constant re-narration of the past. Using the author's personal letters as a guide to understanding his fiction, Said draws an important parallel between Conrad's view of his own life and the manner and form of his stories. The critic also argues that the author, who set his fiction in exotic locations like East Asia and Africa, projects political dimensions in his work that mirror a colonialist preoccupation with "civilizing" native peoples. Said then suggests that this dimension should be considered when reading...
