Good Neighbors: The Democracy of Everyday Life in America
ISBN: 9780691169439 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. "Love thy neighbor" is an impossible exhortation. Good neighbors greet us on the street and do small favors, but neighbors also startle us with sounds at night and unleash their demons on us, they monitor and reproach us, and betray us to authorities. The moral principles prescribed for friendship, civil society, and democratic public life apply imperfectly to life around home, where we interact day to day without the formal institutions, rules of conduct, and means of enforcement that guide us in other settings. In Good Neighbors, Nancy Rosenblum explores how encounters among... "Love thy neighbor" is an impossible exhortation.

Membership and Morals: The Personal Uses of Pluralism in America
ISBN: 9780691050232 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 425 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In recent years, membership has dropped in traditional voluntary associations such as Rotary Clubs, Jaycees, and bowling leagues. At the same time, concern is rising about the growth of paramilitary and hate groups. Scholars have warned that these trends are undermining civic society by creating a dangerous number of isolated, mistrustful individuals and organized, antisocial renegades. In this provocative book, however, Nancy Rosenblum takes a new, less narrowly political approach to the study of groups. And she reaches more optimistic conclusions about the state of civil society. ...

On the Side of the Angels: An Appreciation of Parties and Partisanship
ISBN: 9780691148144 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 600 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Political parties are the defining institutions of representative democracy and the darlings of political science. Their governing and electoral functions are among the chief concerns of the field. Yet most political theorists--including democratic theorists--ignore or disparage parties as grubby arenas of ambition, obstacles to meaningful political participation and deliberation. On the Side of the Angels is a vigorous defense of the virtues of parties and partisanship, and their worth as a subject for political theory. Nancy Rosenblum's account moves between political...

Obligations of Citizenship and Demands of Faith: Religious Accommodation in Pluralist Democracies
ISBN: 9780691007083 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 400 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Of the many challenges facing liberal democracy, none is as powerful and pervasive today as those posed by religion. These are the challenges taken up in Obligations of Citizenship and Demands of Faith, an exploration of the place of religion in contemporary public life. The essays in this volume suggest that two important shifts have altered the balance between the competing obligations of citizenship and faith: the growth of religious pluralism and the escalating calls of religious groups for some measure of autonomy or recognition from democratic majorities. The... Of the many challenges facing liberal democracy, none is as powerful and pervasive today as those posed by religion. These are the challenges taken... |

Another Liberalism
ISBN: 9780674864412 / Angielski / Twarda / 1987 / 225 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Another Liberalism contributes an original perspective to debates about the nature and foundations of liberal thought. In it Nancy Rosenblum describes the dynamic of romanticism and liberalism as one of mutual opposition and reconciliation. She argues that romanticism sees liberalism as cold, contractual, and aloof. And conventional liberal legalism disdains romanticism's longing for all that is personal, unique, and expressive.
We learn, however, that romanticism, chastened by its excesses and frustrated by its failures, can "come home" to liberalism. We also learn... Another Liberalism contributes an original perspective to debates about the nature and foundations of liberal thought. In it Nancy Rosenblu... |
