The Social Contract in America: From the Revolution to the Present Age
ISBN: 9780700615407 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 268 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Because most Americans believe that government requires the consent of the governed, the idea of the social contract may come as close to a public philosophy as we've ever had. And, as Mark Hulliung reminds us, we have frequently fought our greatest political battles by wielding one or another version of social contract theory. Hulliung's book is the first to examine the role of the social contract across the entire sweep of American history, well beyond the Revolution and Founding periods. While he pays close attention to the contested versions of the social contract from 1765 to 1861,...

Rousseau and the Dilemmas of Modernity
ISBN: 9781412862448 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 262 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This volume seeks to capture Jean-Jacques Rousseau's astonishing contribution to our understanding of the dilemmas of modernity. For the contributors to this book Rousseau is present as well as past, because he was so modern and yet so ambivalent about modernity, a position with which we are quite familiar. Highlighted in this volume is the contention that Rousseau set the stage for many discussions of the good and bad of modernity. Previous efforts to deal with Rousseau and modernity have suffered from myopia. In the nineteenth century the Romantics claimed Rousseau as one of their...

Sartre and Clio: Encounters with History
ISBN: 9781612050447 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In Nausea, the 1938 novel that made Sartre famous, the protagonist is a historian who abandons the biography he is writing because he comes to believe that all histories are fictional, escapist, and useless. He sought the one and only truth of history; a truth that would revolutionize the world. By the time Sartre published his most mature works, he claimed to have written a biography that was perfectly true. This book examines how and why Sartre's position on the possibility and worth of historical knowledge changed so dramatically. In addition, it illuminates Sartre's unique contribution to...

Citizens and Citoyens: Republicans and Liberals in America and France
ISBN: 9780674009271 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 274 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In a tour de force of comparative intellectual history, Mark Hulliung sharply challenges conventional wisdom about the political nature of the "sister republics," America and France. Hulliung argues that the standard American account of a continuous Jacobin republican tradition--"illiberal to the core"--is fatally misleading. In reality it was the nineteenth-century French liberals who undermined the cause of liberalism, and it was French republicans who eventually saved liberal ideals. And comparison with France provides compelling evidence that the American republic was from...

Citizen Machiavelli
ISBN: 9781412854054 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 268 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Machiavelli has been viewed as the forerunner of the humanists of our day, liberals and socialists, who have discovered that moral ends sometimes require immoral means. Against this interpretation, Mark Hulliung argues that Machiavelli's "humanism," was rooted in classical notions of grandeur and greatness, and that his prime reason for admiring the ancient Roman republic was that it conquered the world. In short, Machiavelli was at his most Machiavellian precisely when he voiced his "civic humanism." Hulliung argues that Machiavelli's embrace of fraud and violence cannot be justified by...

The American Liberal Tradition Reconsidered: The Contested Legacy of Louis Hartz
ISBN: 9780700617081 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 286 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Once upon a time in America, Herbert Hoover accused Franklin D. Roosevelt of usurping the coveted label "liberal." Nowadays, Republicans have so successfully stigmatized the word that even Democrats run from it. But in 1955, Louis Hartz offered perhaps the most famous interpretation of American history of the second half of the twentieth century in his book The Liberal Tradition in America, to which students of American political culture have found themselves returning time and again over the last several decades. Hartz argued that America is inherently liberal, since it lacked a feudal...

The Autocritique of Enlightenment: Rousseau and the Philosophes
ISBN: 9781412853644 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Of all the critiques of the Enlightenment, the most telling may be found in the life and writings of Jean-Jacques Rousseau. This searching, long overlooked autocritique receives its first full treatment by Mark Hulliung. Here he restores Rousseau to his historical context, the world of the philosophes, and shows how he employed the arsenal of Voltaire, Diderot, and others to launch a powerful attack on their version of the Enlightenment. With great intellectual skill and rhetorical force, Rousseau exposed the inconsistencies and shortcomings of the Enlightenment: the psychology of Locke, the...

Enlightenment in Scotland and France: Studies in Political Thought
ISBN: 9781138633902 / Angielski / Twarda / 2018 / 188 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Enlightenment in Scotland and France: Studies in Political Thought provides comparative analysis of the Scottish and French Enlightenments. Studies of the two Enlightenments have previously focused on the transnational, their story one of continuity between Scottish intellectuals and French philosophes and of a mutual commitment to combat fanaticism in all its forms. This book contends that what has been missing, by and large, from the scholarly literature is the comparative analysis that underscores the contrasts as well as the similarities of the Enlightenments in Scotland and France. ...
