ISBN: 9781475982879 / Angielski / Miękka / 350 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

Philip J. Eveland shows how...

ISBN: 9781780766607 / Angielski / Twarda / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The roots of the recent financial crisis can be found in the substantial changes which have affected British economy and society over the last three decades.

Post-war Social Democracy in its original form - as advocated by Tony Crosland - relied heavily on an industrial economy and society.

From the much-loved, witty and excoriating voice of journalist Nick Cohen, a powerful and irreverent dissection of the agonies, idiocies and compromises of mainstream liberal thought.

Today he's no less confused. When he looks around him, in the aftermath of...

Why Political Liberalism?: On John Rawls's Political Turn
ISBN: 9780199970940 / Angielski / Miękka / 400 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In Why Political Liberalism?, Paul Weithman offers a fresh, rigorous, and compelling interpretation of John Rawls's reasons for taking his so-called "political turn." Weithman takes Rawls at his word that justice as fairness was recast as a form of political liberalism because of an inconsistency Rawls found in his early treatment of social stability. He argues that the inconsistency is best seen by identifying the threats to stability with which the early Rawls was concerned. One of those threats, often overlooked by Rawls's readers, is the threat that the justice of a well-ordered...
