Limits of Liberty -- Between Anarchy & Leviathan
ISBN: 9780865972254 / Angielski / Twarda / 2000 / 242 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Published originally in 1975, The Limits of Liberty made James Buchanan's name more widely known than ever before among political philosophers and theorists and established Buchanan, along with John Rawls and Robert Nozick, as one of the three new contractarians, standing on the shoulders of Hobbes, Locke, and Kant. While The Limits of Liberty is strongly related to Buchanan's Calculus of Consent, it is logically prior to the Calculus, according to Helmut Kliemt in the foreword, even though it was published later. Buchanan frames the central idea most cogently in the opening of his preface:...

Snatched Into Paradise (2 Cor 12:1-10): Paul's Heavenly Journey in the Context of Early Christian Experience
ISBN: 9783110247848 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 403 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In 2 Corinthians 12:1 10, Paul claims to have been snatched into paradise but then tells how he received a thorn in the flesh . Many recent scholars contend that Paul belittles ecstatic experiences such as the ascent to paradise. This monograph places 2 Corinthians 12:1 10 in the contexts of ancient ascent traditions as well as other accounts of extraordinary religious experience in Paul s letters, and it engages premodern interpretation of the ascent. This study argues that for Paul, extraordinary experiences such as the ascent enable self-transcending love for God and neighbors. "In 2 Corinthians 12:1 10, Paul claims to have been snatched into paradise but then tells how he received a thorn in the flesh . Many recent scholar... |

Freedom in Constitutional Contract: Perspectives of a Political Economist
ISBN: 9781585440009 / Angielski / Miękka / 1977 / 324 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Though written by an economist, this book's subject is not "economics" in the ordinary sense of that term. Instead, it is James Buchanan's contribution to what he has called the "contractarian revival," the renewed interest in and emphasis on the metaphor of the social contract in evaluating political alternatives. He believes that genuine constitutional dialogue must take place in this country if America is to remain a free society and that the perspectives of an economist are valuable in the discussion of basic issues of social philosophy.
The author critically examines the basic... Though written by an economist, this book's subject is not "economics" in the ordinary sense of that term. Instead, it is James Buchanan's contributio...

ISBN: 9780807841907 / Angielski / Miękka / 1987 / 321 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Studies of public finance, as traditionally developed, have analyzed the effects of fiscal institutions on the market-choice behavior of individuals and firms, but this book takes a different approach. It analyzes the effects of fiscal institutions on the political-choice behavior of individuals as they participate variously in the decision-making processes of democracies.
What effect will the form of a new tax have on individuals' attitudes toward more or less public spending? To what extent does the private sector--public sector mix depend on the way in which tax payments are made?...

The Limits of Liberty: Between Anarchy and Leviathan
ISBN: 9780226078205 / Angielski / Miękka / 1977 / 221 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. ""The Limits of Liberty" is concerned mainly with two topics. One is an attempt to construct a new contractarian theory of the state, and the other deals with its legitimate limits. The latter is a matter of great practical importance and is of no small significance from the standpoint of political philosophy." Scott Gordon, "Journal of Political Economy"
James Buchanan offers a strikingly innovative approach to a pervasive problem of social philosophy. The problem is one of the classic paradoxes concerning man's freedom in society: in order to protect individual freedom, the state must...

ISBN: 9780472080410 / Angielski / Miękka / 1984 / 464 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. That economics can usefully explain politics is no longer a novel idea, it is a well-established fact brought about by the work of many public choice scholars. This book, which is a sequel to a similar volume published in 1972, brings together a fresh collection of recent work in the public choice tradition. The essays demonstrate the power of the public choice approach in the analysis of government. Among the issues considered are income redistribution, fiscal limitations on government, voting rules and processes, the demand for public goods, the political business cycle, international...
