Justice in Robes
ISBN: 9780674027275 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 308 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. How should a judge's moral convictions bear on his judgments about what the law is? Lawyers, sociologists, philosophers, politicians, and judges all have answers to that question: these range from "nothing" to "everything." In Justice in Robes, Ronald Dworkin argues that the question is much more complex than it has often been taken to be and charts a variety of dimensions--semantic, jurisprudential, and doctrinal--in which law and morals are undoubtedly interwoven. He restates and summarizes his own widely discussed account of these connections, which emphasizes the sovereign...

Náboženství bez Boha
ISBN: 9788074382635 / Czeski / 2021 / 124 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Důvěrně známý rozpor mezi lidmi náboženskými a lidmi nenáboženskými je ve svém dělení příliš hrubý. Miliony lidí, kteří se považují za ateisty, mají přesvědčení a zkušenosti podobné a právě tak hluboké, jako jsou ty, které věřící pokládají za náboženské. Říkají, že i když nevěří v „osobního“ boha, věří v nějakou „sílu“ ve vesmíru, jež je „větší než my“. Tématem této knihy je to, že náboženství je hlubší než Bůh. Víra v jakéhosi boha je jen jednou možnou manifestací či důsledkem této hlubší...

Sovereign Virtue: The Theory and Practice of Equality
ISBN: 9780674008106 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 528 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Equality is the endangered species of political ideals. Even left-of-center politicians reject equality as an ideal: government must combat poverty, they say, but need not strive that its citizens be equal in any dimension. In his new book Ronald Dworkin insists, to the contrary, that equality is the indispensable virtue of democratic sovereignty. A legitimate government must treat all its citizens as equals, that is, with equal respect and concern, and, since the economic distribution that any society achieves is mainly the consequence of its system of law and policy, that requirement...

A Matter of Principle
ISBN: 9780674554610 / Angielski / Miękka / 1986 / 448 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This is a book about the interplay of urgent political issues and hotly debated questions of moral philosophy. The controversies it joins are old; but history has given them fresh shape. For example, whether judges should and do make law is now of more practical importance than ever before, as recent presidents have appointed enough justices to the Supreme Court to set its character for a generation. With forceful style, Ronald Dworkin addresses questions about the Anglo-American legal system as protector of individual rights and as machinery for furthering the common good. He discusses...

Researching Persons with Mental Illness
ISBN: 9780803936041 / Angielski / Miękka / 1992 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Can the mentally ill be interviewed? What kind of reliability can be expected in their responses? What about the ethics of informed consent? Although standard social science methodologies have been used successfully to study mental health, researching issues with mentally ill individuals introduces unique theoretical and methodological issues.

Class Struggles
ISBN: 9781138176621 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In the 1960s and 1970s the study of history and sociology was heavily influenced by Marxism and theories of class. But the collapse of Communism and significant changes in culture and society threw the study of class into crisis. Its most basic premises were called into question. More recently accelerating globalisation, proliferating multinational corporations and unbridled free-market capitalism have given the study of class a new significance and caused historians and sociologists to revisit the debate. This book looks at the changes that caused the crisis in the study of... In the 1960s and 1970s the study of history and sociology was heavily influenced by Marxism and theories of class.

How Karl Marx Can Save American Capitalism
ISBN: 9781498509749 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. When the Cold War ended, some people called it the end of history. Capitalism and liberal democracy had prevailed. Later, when the West clashed with radical Islam, Americans realized history hadn t ended after all at least not abroad. Now, in How Marx Can Save American Capitalism, Ronald W. Dworkin shows us that even the home front is in play and capitalism and liberal democracy are threatened. Dworkin uses Karl Marx to tip the balance in their favor a paradox, as Marx was the sworn enemy of capitalism and liberal democracy, but also logical, as Marx knew the weak spots in capitalism and...

The Rise of the Imperial Self: America's Culture Wars in Augustinian Perspective
ISBN: 9780847682195 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The Rise of the Imperial Self establishes a geneaology of aristocracy and places America firmly within an aristocratic tradition originally articulated by St. Augustine, but adapted to American society by Alexis de Tocqueville. Ronald W. Dworkin then traces the evolution of American culture from Tocqueville's America, when American aristocracy was defined by a love of something beyond the self to today's preoccupation with individuality, self-expression, autonomy, and self-esteem--the "imperial self."

Freedom's Law: The Moral Reading of the American Constitution
ISBN: 9780674319288 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 416 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Ronald Dworkin argues that Americans have been systematically misled about what their Constitution is, and how judges decide what it means. The Constitution, he observes, grants individual rights in extremely abstract terms. The First Amendment prohibits the passing of laws that "abridge the freedom of speech"; the Fifth Amendment insists on "due process of law"; and the Fourteenth Amendment demands "equal protection of the laws" for all persons. What does that abstract language mean when it is applied to the political controversies that divide Americans--about affirmative action and racial...

Medical Catastrophe: Confessions of an Anesthesiologist
ISBN: 9781442265752 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 220 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Unnecessary death rarely happens at the hands of doctors, but it does happen. Sometimes the cause is medical error. But sometimes the cause is politics. The issues underlying many medical catastrophes are numerous: a power struggle between providers, uncertainty over who's in charge, hesitation to practice good medicine for fear of being fired, specialization run amok, part-time doctoring. Doctors often prefer to ignore the problems, but patient safety demands that they be aired. And so does the future of the medical profession. Beneath the politics lies confusion: Doctors no longer know who...
