ISBN: 9780739186893 / Angielski / Twarda / 274 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. "I no sooner perceived myself in the world," wrote English philosopher John Locke, "than I found myself in a storm."

In God, Locke, and Liberty: The Struggle for Religious Freedom in the West, historian Joseph Loconte offers a groundbreaking study of Locke's Letter, challenging the notion that decisive...

Das Publikum Der Gesellschaft: Inklusionsverhältnisse Und Inklusionsprofile in Deutschland
ISBN: 9783531156057 / Niemiecki / Miękka / 184 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Das Verhaltnis von Individuum und Gesellschaft hat die Soziologie von Anfang an beschaftigt. Ganz allgemein betrachtet handelt es sich um ein ambivalentes Wechselverhaltnis (Schimank 2002: 15-18). Menschliche Individuen konnen nur in gesellschaftlicher Ordnung uberleben, deren Erhalt umgekehrt der Kreativitat des Handelns (Joas 1992) individueller Akteure bedarf. Doch zugleich stellt das individuelle Handlungspotential eine bestandige Storgrosse gesellschaftlicher Ordnung dar, und diese wiederum kann umgekehrt die Individualitat der - sellschaftsmitglieder einzwangen und sogar vernichten....

Charity: The Place of the Poor in the Biblical Tradition

It has long been acknowledged that Jews and Christians distinguished themselves through charity to the poor. Though ancient Greeks and Romans were also generous, they funded theaters and baths rather than poorhouses and orphanages. How might we explain this difference? In this significant reappraisal of charity in the biblical tradition, Gary Anderson argues that the poor constituted the privileged place where Jews and Christians met God. Though...

Framing Jewish Culture: Boundaries and Representations
ISBN: 9781906764081 / Angielski / Miękka / 400 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Modernity offers people choices about who they want to be and how they want to appear to others. The way in which Jews choose to frame their identity establishes the dynamic of their social relations with other Jews and non-Jews - a dynamic complicated by how non-Jews position the boundaries around what and who they define as Jewish. This book uncovers these processes, historically, as well as in contemporary behavior, and finds explanations for the various manifestations, in feeling and action, of 'being Jewish.' Boundaries and borders raise fundamental questions about the difference between...
