Society, Theory and the French Revolution: Studies in the Revolutionary Imaginary
ISBN: 9781349183630 / Angielski / Miękka / 1986 / 236 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This is a very different book about the French Revolution of 1789-94. The concern is less with a change in society than a change in the relation that a society establishes with itself. Here the focus is on society's presentation (and representation) considered not simply from the perspective of a few privileged intellectuals, but as a social and historical process inseparable from the institution of society's political dimension. Through a close reading of the revolutionary texts of the period, the author is able to trace behind the surface of events and conflict themes of a more abstract,...

The Expanding Circle: Ethics, Evolution, and Moral Progress
ISBN: 9780691150697 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. What is ethics? Where do moral standards come from? Are they based on emotions, reason, or some innate sense of right and wrong? For many scientists, the key lies entirely in biology--especially in Darwinian theories of evolution and self-preservation. But if evolution is a struggle for survival, why are we still capable of altruism? In his classic study The Expanding Circle, Peter Singer argues that altruism began as a genetically based drive to protect one's kin and community members but has developed into a consciously chosen ethic with an expanding circle of moral...

With the savvy of foreign policy insiders, Senor and Singer examine the lessons of the country's adversity-driven culture, which flattens hierarchy and elevates informality-- all backed up by government policies focused on innovation.

How Are We to Live?: Ethics in an Age of Self-Interest
ISBN: 9780192892959 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 340 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych.
