Is Killing Wrong?: A Study in Pure Sociology
ISBN: 9780813928265 / Angielski / Twarda / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. -Thou shalt not kill- is arguably the most basic moral and legal principle in any society.

Conceived by... -Thou shalt not kill- is arguably the most basic moral and legal principle in any society. Yet while some killers are pilloried and punished, other... |

As we generally believe, the last part of the twentieth century was unusually violent, but there have been other high-violence eras as well: the late 1920s and the mid-nineteenth century, the latter because the absence of...
