Models of Man: Philosophical Thoughts on Social Action
ISBN: 9781107534377 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 172 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. All social theorists and philosophers who seek to explain human action have a 'model of man'; a metaphysical view of human nature that requires its own theory of scientific knowledge. In this influential book, Martin Hollis examines the tensions that arise from the differing views of sociologists, economists and psychologists. He then develops a rationalist model of his own which connects personal and social identity through a theory of rational action and a priori knowledge, allowing humans to both act freely and still be a subject for scientific explanation. Presented in a fresh series...

Reason in Action: Essays in the Philosophy of Social Science
ISBN: 9780521442633 / Angielski / Twarda / 1995 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Did Adam and Eve act rationally in eating the fruit of the forbidden tree? That can seem to depend solely on whether they had found the best means to their ends, in the spirit of the "economic" theories of rationality. In these essays, culled in revised form from twenty-five years' work, Martin Hollis argues that social action cannot be understood by viewing human beings as abstract individuals with preferences in search of satisfaction, or by divorcing practical reason from questions of the rationality of norms, principles, practices and ends.

The Cunning of Reason
ISBN: 9780521270397 / Angielski / Miękka / 1988 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In this book, the author is attempting to make sense, as a philosopher, of the ideas of rationality put forward by economists, sociologists, and political theorists. The book intervenes in intense current debates within and among several disciplines. Its concern is with the true nature of social actors and the proper character of social science. Its arguments are the more challenging for being presented in simple, incisive, and lucid prose.

The Philosophy of Social Science: An Introduction
ISBN: 9780521447805 / Angielski / Miękka / 1994 / 277 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This new interdisciplinary textbook by Martin Hollis offers an exceptionally clear and concise introduction to the philosophy of social science. It unearths central philosophical problems underlying the standard ways of thinking about social institutions and social actions, leading the reader to reflect upon the nature of scientific method itself. Is the aim to explain the social world after the manner of the natural world, or to understand it from within? Writing in his characteristically clear and incisive prose, Martin Hollis reveals the crucial role to be played by philosophy in the study...

Explaining and Understanding International Relations
ISBN: 9780198275893 / Angielski / Miękka / 1991 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. A collaboration between a philosopher and an international relations scholar, this work examines the philosophical issues that underlie the theory of international relations. Part I focuses on the dominant theories of Idealism, Realism, and Behavioralism, and Part II examines the international system, the state, bureaucracies, and the individual--four factors commonly assumed to account for international behavior. The authors conclude with a summary of the links between the two forms of analysis and an open-ended assessment of their relative merits which will stimulate further...

Pluralism and Liberal Neutrality
ISBN: 9780714644707 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The crisis of liberalism is found in the liberal claim to endorse a set of neutral procedures that allow individuals and groups to pursue their own good, when the very possibility of such neutrality is brought into question by the growth of plural societies, and the divided loyalties that go with them. This collection explores this crisis. Modern states rely on agreements to secure the loyalty of citizens. But growing social pluralism means a growing division in loyalties among citizens along lines of ideology, ethnicity, gender, religion and locale. The liberal answer to diversity is to...

Rationality and Relativism
ISBN: 9780262580618 / Angielski / Miękka / 1982 / 324 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Are there absolute truths that can be gradually approached over time through rational processes? Or are all modes and systems of thought equally valid if viewed from within their own internally consistent frames of reference? Are there universal forms of reasoning and understanding that enable us to distinguish between rational beliefs and those that are demonstrably false, or is everything relative? These central questions are addressed and debated by the distinguished contributors to this lively book. Some of them -- Hollis, Lukes, Robin Horton, and Ernest Gellner -- discuss new...

Moralische Entscheidung und rationale Wahl
ISBN: 9783486559491 / Niemiecki / Twarda / 1992 / 227 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Klugheit und Moralitat werden gewohnlich fur gegensatzlich gehalten. Die Klugheit sagt uns, "Tue das, was Deinen Interessen am besten entspricht." Die Moralitat dagegen verlangt von jedem von uns, das Richtige zu tun. Unter dem "Richtigen" wird meist das verstanden, was fur jeden oder zumindest fur die meisten das Beste ist. Die Autoren des Bandes wenden sich dem Problemfeld eine Entscheidung zwischen Klugheit und Moralitat aus dem Blickwinkel der Spieltheorie zu. Sie versuchen nicht weniger als eine Theorie der praktischen Vernunft aufzustellen fur eine Welt, die naturwissenschaftlich und...

Rational Economic Man
ISBN: 9780521033886 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Economics is probably the most subtle, precise and powerful of the social sciences and its theories have deep philosophical import. Yet the dominant alliance between economics and philosophy has long been cheerfully simple. This is the textbook alliance of neo-Classicism and Positivism, so crucial to the defence of orthodox economics against by now familiar objections. This is an unusual book and a deliberately controversial one. The authors cast doubt on assumptions which neo-Classicists often find too obvious to defend or, indeed, to mention. They set out to disturb an influential concensus...
