The Political Philosophy of George Washington
ISBN: 9780801891090 / Angielski / Twarda / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. George Washington is revered as the father of his country, a clever and skilled general, and a man of restrained principle--but not as a political thinker. This short introduction to Washington's political philosophy reveals him as a thoughtful public intellectual who was well equipped to lead the young United States. Though Washington left little explicit writing on political philosophy, Jeffry Morrison examines his key writings, actions, education, and political and professional lives. He finds that Washington held closely to a trinity of foundational principles--classical...

ISBN: 9780521765329 / Angielski / Twarda / 212 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Arab nationalism and Islamism have been the two most potent ideological forces in the Arab region across the twentieth century. Over the last two decades, however, an accommodation of sorts has been developing between liberals, socialists and Islamists, to protest unpopular foreign and domestic policies, such as those aimed at cooperation with Israel or the war in Iraq. By examining the writings of Arab nationalist, socialist and Islamist intellectuals, and through numerous interviews with political participants from different persuasions, Michaelle Browers traces these developments from the...

ISBN: 9780754660668 / Angielski / Twarda / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. It is well known that the radical libertarian philosopher Robert Nozick sharply distinguished his vision of the free society from egalitarian liberals such as John Rawls.

A Better Guide Than Reason: Federalists & Anti-Federalists
ISBN: 9781560001317 / Angielski / Twarda / 238 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In this seminal volume, M. E. Bradford defines the Old Whig political tradition in American thought, showing that the inheritance of the prescriptive anti-federalists still lives. For Bradford, important elements in our heritage from the American Revolution have been systematically hidden from our view by anachronistic and partisan scholarship. He believes that other, more ideological components have been emphasized at the expense of the rest. Here he attempts to return us to our heritage. A Better Guide than Reason is a unique book due to its unusual focus on the Declaration of Independence....

Laurie Johnson Bagby examines the loss of the appreciation for honor in modern Western society through an examination of the political philosophy of English political philosopher Thomas Hobbes.

A Critical Theory of Ethno-Nationalist Ideology in the Developed West
ISBN: 9783639129083 / Angielski / Miękka / 292 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book attempts to address the recent development of ethno nationalism in Western Europe and North America. It engages with Kleinian psychoanalytical concepts, balancing these with a broader socio-economic emphasis, to argue that a certain type of nationalism is becoming more prevalent. The book seeks to suggest, through an interpretation of political culture, that contemporary ethno nationalism is linked to the decline of a sense of the self. Contemporary service based economies tend to favour a lack of personal reality or connectedness to social traditions. Individuals gain emotional...

American Tradition and Innovation with Contemporary Import and Foreground: Foundations (to Early 19th Century)

This first book of the sixth volume centers on the Revolutionary and Constitutional eras in early American history, while also carrying the story ahead into the early 19th century. How did the American founders adapt and utilize European thought in their political and legal ideas on sovereignty, state, and legislation? Because of the seismic impact of European thought (and classical traditions) on America's foremost founders, it should come as no surprise that some of the most basic documents in the emergent new Republic were significantly influenced by European writings. Subsequent... This first book of the sixth volume centers on the Revolutionary and Constitutional eras in early American history, while also carrying the story a... |

The Political Centrist
ISBN: 9780826516688 / Angielski / Twarda / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Today almost half of all Americans decline to define themselves as either "liberal" or "conservative." In fact, modern liberalism and conservatism seem hopelessly fragmented ideologies. Liberals claim to believe in individual freedom yet advocate a more collectivistic approach to government and an increasingly paternalistic role for the state. Conservatives are hopelessly divided between two incompatible ideals--the highly individualistic, limited-state philosophy of classical liberalism and an older, more collectivistic tradition of cultural conservatism that holds government responsible for...

Social Democracy in the Age of Globalization
ISBN: 9783639133547 / Angielski / Miękka / 212 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book studies Social Democracy within the context
of globalization. It questions both the argument over its unviability within the context and the accusations directed to it after 1980, such as that it has moved to the New Right stance and that it has experienced ruptures from its tradition, such as its acceptance of market economy and of the individual and breaking its ties with the working class. Against such criticisms this work argues that their understanding of Social Democracy arose from the shortages of their analysis which focuses merely either on party politics or on policies....

The Populism of The Village Institutes
ISBN: 9783639138238 / Angielski / Miękka / 172 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Village Institutes were one of the most
efficacious social phenomena in the history of the Turkish Republic. Being educational institutions, they have been studied mostly in the discipline of pedagogics. However, they were multi-dimensional phenomena with far-reaching influence, and have continued to be a significant subject for social scientists. This book aims to contribute to the academic literature on the Village Institutes by analyzing them within the context of populism. The book mainly focuses on the paradoxical relationship between populism and democracy, and analyzes... The Village Institutes were one of the most

Sparta in Babylon
ISBN: 9783639143805 / Angielski / Miękka / 236 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book examines the veracity of longstanding
claims that military leaders develop a coherent public ideology that is, first, distinct from those of their parent society and, second, that this belief system is predictably conservative in character. In the American case, these claims depict self-selected and socialized military leaders as sharing in a conservative "military mind" that remains isolated from the mainstream of the American liberal tradition. Using a combination of Q-method public values sorting exercises followed by semi- structured, in-depth interviews, these... This book examines the veracity of longstanding

ISBN: 9781440141355 / Angielski / Miękka / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Whew What a week that was as Canadians went from being the 'peaceable kingdom' talking about the need for cooperation and consultation to what many described as 'a full blown national crisis'. The Prime Minister and Conservative Government had turned an 'economic crisis' into a 'political crisis', then a 'constitutional crisis'. And if that wasn't enough of a week's work, the Prime Minister managed to also turn it into a 'crisis of national unity'.

These essays, all of which were published in The Review of Politics, the majority during the 1940s and 1950s, reflect four major tenets of the classical realist tradition: an obligation to confront large and difficult questions about international politics, a recognition of the fundamentally tragic nature of relations among humans and states, a rejection of historical optimism, and a belief in practical morality.
