Farmed Animals on Film: A Manifesto for a New Ethic
ISBN: 9783031238314 / Angielski / Twarda Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book aims to show how film can increase awareness of the plight of farmed animals without exploiting them. Much has been written on the rights of animals, be they in the wild or circuses, hunted, experimented on, used for entertainment, or slaughtered and consumed. However, there has been little that has examined in any detail the filming of farmed animals, and nothing on a declaration of rights for such animals, thus leaving them in a limbo of neglect. Stephen Marcus Finn offers a manifesto on how to foster the rights of farmed animals in filming and sets out to rectify this lacuna.

Liberal Education and Citizenship in a Free Society
ISBN: 9780826222831 / Angielski / Twarda / 416 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The liberal arts university has been in decline since well before the virtualization of campus life, increasingly inviting public skepticism about its viability as an institution of personal, civic, and professional growth. The current generation of technologies that mediate our formal and informal academic interchanges are crystalizing the echo-chamber allegiances that have developed on our politically charged campuses, frustrating the university’s capacity to foster thoughtful citizenship among tomorrow’s leaders. Moreover, as applications such as Teams and Zoom become ensconced...

This study addresses the damage done...

Politics, Ethics and Culture in Our Time: A Post-Civilizational Perspective
ISBN: 9789004538160 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Global capitalism is effecting changes in human life as momentous as those that occurred during the Neolithic Revolution, the Axial Age (700-300 BC), and the modern era post-1500, when industrial capitalism, state power, and science reshaped the civilized world. The transformation is paradoxical, however. Science and technology ensure material progress but the market promotes cultural obsolescence and erodes belief in the Enlightenment ideals that inspired the quest for progress. In Western democracies, liberty and equality are proving irreconcilable, citizens becoming demoralized, fraternity...
