ISBN: 9780765801258 / Angielski / Twarda / 120 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The nature of leadership and the human qualities that promote or inhibit it have a long history in Western thought and remain a central concern in modern societies. Crises in leadership may arise from either human failings or social complexities that defeat or reject those most qualified to lead. While most contemporary political or social commentators on such crises tend to focus on external circumstances, David Cawthon examines classical thinkers from Plato to Nietzsche to offer a historical and philosophical perspective on the intrinsic qualities of leadership and how these qualities are...

Metascience and Politics: An Inquiry Into the Conceptual Language of Political Science
ISBN: 9780765805096 / Angielski / Miękka / 457 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. A central problem in political inquiry is the conceptual and linguistic informality of political science. For most of its history, the discipline has been largely pursued with the analytic and logical machinery of ordinary language. Likewise, there has been little effort to standardize how language is used, or to systematize theoretical procedures to insure methodological uniformity. In an effort to better understand and defend the research processes that attend, sustain, and foster the systematic credibility of political science, Gregor argues a special conceptual language is needed to...

A Philosophical History of Rights
ISBN: 9780765805423 / Angielski / Miękka / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Since the seventeenth century, concern in the Western world for the welfare of the individual has been articulated most often as a concern for his rights. The modern conception of individual rights resulted from abandonment of ancient, value-laced ideas of nature and their replacement by the modern, mathematically transparent idea of nature that has room only for individuals, often in confl ict. In A Philosophical History of Rights, Gary B. Herbert reviews the historical evolution of the concept and the transformation of the problems through which the concept is defi ned.

ISBN: 9780773530102 / Angielski / Miękka / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

Lament for a Nation became the...
