Natural Rights Theories: Their Origin and Development
ISBN: 9780521285094 / Angielski / Miękka / 1982 / 196 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book shows how political argument in terms of rights and natural rights began in medieval Europe, and how the theory of natural rights was developed in the seventeenth century after a period of neglect in the Renaissance. Dr Tuck provides a new understanding of the importance of Jean Gerson in the formation of the theories, and of Hugo Grotius in their development; he also restores the Englishman John Selden??'s ideas to the prominence they once enjoyed, and shows how Thomas Hobbes??'s political theory can best be understood against this background. In general, the book enables us to...

Free Riding
ISBN: 9780674028340 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. One individual's contribution to a large collective project--such as voting in a national election or contributing to a public television fund-raising campaign--often seems negligible. A striking proposition of contemporary economics and political science is that it would be an exercise of reason, not a failure of it, not to contribute to a collective project if the contribution is negligible, but to benefit from it nonetheless. But Richard Tuck wonders whether this phenomenon of free riding is a timeless aspect of human nature or a recent, historically contingent one. He argues for...

Hobbes: On the Citizen
ISBN: 9780521437806 / Angielski / Miękka / 1998 / 306 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. De Cive (On the Citizen) is the first full exposition of the political thought of Thomas Hobbes, the greatest English political philosopher of all time. Professors Tuck and Silverthorne have undertaken the first complete translation since 1651, a rendition long thought (in error) to be at least sanctioned by Hobbes himself. On the Citizen is written in a clear, straightforward, expository style, offering students a more digestible account of Hobbes' political thought than even Leviathan itself. This new translation is itself a very significant scholarly event.

Philosophy and Government, 1572-1651
ISBN: 9780521438858 / Angielski / Miękka / 1993 / 408 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This major new contribution to our understanding of European political theory will challenge the perspectives in which political thought is understood. Framed as a general account of the period between 1572 and 1651 it charts the formation of a distinctively modern political vocabulary, based on arguments of political necessity and raison d'etat in the work of the major theorists. While Dr. Tuck pays detailed attention to Montaigne, Grotius, Hobbes and the theorists of the English Revolution, he also reconsiders the origins of their conceptual vocabulary in humanist thought--particularly...

Hobbes: A Very Short Introduction
ISBN: 9780192802552 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 168 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. Thomas Hobbes (1588-1679) was the first great English political philosopher, and his book Leviathan was one of the first truly modern works of philosophy. Richard Tuck shows that while Hobbes may indeed have been an atheist, he was far from pessimistic about human nature, nor did he advocate totalitarianism. By locating him against the context of his age, we learn that Hobbes developed a theory of knowledge which rivaled that of Descartes in its importance for the formation of modern philosophy.
