Book Synopsis Critical Theory of Legal Revolutions by : Hauke Brunkhorst
Download or read book Critical Theory of Legal Revolutions written by Hauke Brunkhorst and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2014-06-19 with total page 481 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This unique work analyzes the crisis in modern society, building on the ideas of the Frankfurt School thinkers. Emphasizing social evolution and learning processes, it argues that crisis is mediated by social class conflicts and collective learning, the results of which are embodied in constitutional and public law. First, the work outlines a new categorical framework of critical theory in which it is conceived as a theory of crisis. It shows that the Marxist focus on economy and on class struggle is too narrow to deal with the range of social conflicts within modern society, and posits that a crisis of legitimization is at the core of all crises. It then discusses the dialectic of revolutionary and evolutionary developmental processes of modern society and its legal system. This volume in the Critical Theory and Contemporary Society by a leading scholar in the field provides a new approach to critical theory that will appeal to anyone studying political sociology, political theory, and law.

Book Synopsis Hegel’s Twilight by : Mogobe B. Ramose
Download or read book Hegel’s Twilight written by Mogobe B. Ramose and published by Rodopi. This book was released on 2013 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Professor Heinz Kimmerle encountered African philosophy at a time when his specialisation in the philosophy of Hegel had attained world recognition. For Hegel, African philosophy did not exist in Sub-Saharan Africa, exactly the area in which Kimmerle made his first contact with African philosophy. Hegel’s philosophy was not a stranger to Sub-Saharan Africa. This was because the Western educational paradigm was imposed upon the conquered, colonized peoples during the period of colonisation. Unlike Hegel, Kimmerle took African philosophy seriously and engaged, initially, in dialogues with African philosophy. Out of the unfolding dialogues grew intercultural philosophy spearheaded by Kimmerle’s penetrating, insightful and incisive critique of some of the fundamental presuppositions of Hegel’s philosophy. The essays contained in this book focus on the evolution of Kimmerle’s conception and meaning of intercultural philosophy. Underlying this are recognition and respect for other modes of doing philosophy as manifestations of intercultural philosophy. To deny dialogues, if you prefer, polylogue among world philosophies, is to reject the very basis of philosophy. Thus a crucial dimension of philosophy would be precluded, which can be found in this book, namely, the critical evaluation of Kimmerle’s conception and meaning of intercultural philosophy.
Book Synopsis The Financial Crisis in Constitutional Perspective by : Poul F Kjaer
Download or read book The Financial Crisis in Constitutional Perspective written by Poul F Kjaer and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2011-07-27 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume presents the first thorough sociologically-informed legal analysis of the financial crisis which unfolded in 2008. It combines a multitude of theoretically informed analyses of the causes, dynamics and reactions to the crisis and contextualises these within the general structural transformations characterising contemporary society. It furthermore explores the constitutional implications of the crisis and suggests concrete changes to the constitutional set-up of contemporary society. Although the question of individual responsibility is of crucial importance, the central idea animating the volume is that the crisis cannot be reduced to a mere failure of risk perception and management for which individual and collective actors within and outside of financial organisations are responsible. The 2008 crisis should rather be understood as a symptom of far deeper structural transformations. For example contemporary society is characterised by massive accelerations in the speed with which societal processes are reproduced as well as radical expansions in the level of globalisation. These transformations have, however, been asymmetrical in nature insofar as the economic system has outpaced its legal and political counterparts. The future capability of legal and political systems to influence economic reproduction processes is therefore conditioned by equally radical transformations of their respective operational forms and self-understanding. Potentially the 2008 crisis, therefore, has far-reaching constitutional implications.
Book Synopsis Piers Plowman and the Reinvention of Church Law by : Arvind Thomas
Download or read book Piers Plowman and the Reinvention of Church Law written by Arvind Thomas and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2019-03-07 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is a medieval truism that the poet meddles with words, the lawyer with the world. But are the poet's words and the lawyer's world really so far apart? To what extent does the art of making poems share in the craft of making laws, and vice versa? Framed by such questions, Piers Plowman and the Reinvention of Church Law in the Late Middle Ages examines the mutually productive interaction between literary and legal "makyngs" in England's great Middle English poem by William Langland. Focusing on Piers Plowman's preoccupation with wrongdoing in the B and C versions, Arvind Thomas examines the versions' representations of trials, confessions, restitutions, penalties, and pardons. Thomas explores how the "literary" informs and transforms the "legal" until they finally cannot be separated. Thomas shows how the poem's narrative voice, metaphor, syntax and style not only reflect but also act upon properties of canon law, such as penitential procedures and authoritative maxims. Langland's mobilization of juridical concepts, Thomas insists, not only engenders a poetics informed by canonist thought but also expresses an alternative vision of canon law from that proposed by medieval jurists and today's medievalists.

Book Synopsis Political Equality in Transnational Democracy by : E. Erman
Download or read book Political Equality in Transnational Democracy written by E. Erman and published by Springer. This book was released on 2013-11-07 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about the status of political equality under global political conditions. If political equality generally is considered a core feature of democracy, it has received little attention among theorists concerned with global governance. Given the enormous emphasis on democracy as legitimizing factor in global politics, this neglect is noteworthy. This book sets out to address what accounts for the neglect, on the one hand, and how it may be remedied, on the other. The overall aim is to revitalize the debate on the status of political equality in transnational democracy.

Book Synopsis Law as Profession and Practice in Medieval Europe by : Kenneth Pennington
Download or read book Law as Profession and Practice in Medieval Europe written by Kenneth Pennington and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-15 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume brings together papers by a group of scholars, distinguished in their own right, in honour of James Brundage. The essays are organised into four sections, each corresponding to an important focus of Brundage's scholarly work. The first section explores the connection between the development of medieval legal and constitutional thought. Thomas Izbicki, Kenneth Pennington, and Charles Reid, Jr. explore various aspects of the jurisprudence of the Ius commune, while James Powell, Michael Gervers and Nicole Hamonic, Olivia Robinson, and Elizabeth Makowski examine how that jurisprudence was applied to various medieval institutions. Brian Tierney and James Muldoon conclude this section by demonstrating two important points: modern ideas of consent in the political sphere and fundamental principles of international law attributed to sixteenth century jurists like Hugo Grotius have deep roots in medieval jurisprudential thought. Patrick Zutshi, R. H. Helmholz, Peter Landau, Marjorie Chibnall, and Edward Peters have written essays that augment Brundage's work on the growth of the legal profession and how traces of a legal education began to emerge in many diverse arenas. The influence of legal thinking on marriage and sexuality was another aspect of Brundage's broad interests. In the third section Richard Kay, Charles Donahue, Jr., and Glenn Olsen explore the intersection of law and marriage and the interplay of legal thought on a central institution of Christian society. The contributions of Jonathan Riley-Smith and Robert Somerville in the fourth section round-out the volume and are devoted to Brundage's path-breaking work on medieval law and the crusading movement. The volume also includes a comprehensive bibliography of Brundage's work.
Book Synopsis The Interdict in the Thirteenth Century by : Peter D. Clarke
Download or read book The Interdict in the Thirteenth Century written by Peter D. Clarke and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2007-09-06 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Catholic Church extended its authority over many areas of life in the Later Middle Ages, and this increasingly led it into political conflicts with kings and other rulers. In this book, Peter Clarke focuses on one of the Church's chief weapons in these struggles - the interdict. A sanction that could be imposed on an entire kingdom, an interdict was similar to a strike in which clergy closed churches and refused to perform most religious ministrations. It was therefore a major event in medieval society, and this book is the first in-depth treatment of this phenomenon, exploring the issues of collective guilt and responsibility that are still important today.
Book Synopsis Autour de l' enfant by : Anne Lefebvre-Teillard
Download or read book Autour de l' enfant written by Anne Lefebvre-Teillard and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2008-09-30 with total page 395 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present “revolution” in biological technology is leading lawyers to fundamentally reconsider the laws of human reproduction .What is at stake is not only the transmission of life but also the transmission of a certain order of the things on which society is based. This is the reason why the law has always sought to regulate the transmission of life. Covering themes from Canon and medieval Roman Law to the 1804 ‘Code civil’, the work includes twenty-three articles on the history of law about a number of modern-day questions. They deal with the close connections long maintained between marriage and procreation; with natural and legal "filiation" especially regarding the very delicate problems of evidence; with the institution of legitimation but also of the child as a person. There is also an article on the important matter of the "conceived child".

Book Synopsis Law and Theology in Twelfth-century England by : Jason Taliadoros
Download or read book Law and Theology in Twelfth-century England written by Jason Taliadoros and published by Brepols Publishers. This book was released on 2006 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the legal and theological thought of Master Vacarius (c.1115/20 - c.1200), the renowned twelfth-century jurist. It focuses on this Italian master's four works, composed in the second half of the twelfth century, which deal with the resolution of conflict in law and theology. Vacarius is a paradox for scholars. They have found it difficult to reconcile his role as a legal teacher, notably through his textbook the Liber pauperum ('Book of the Poor'), which established a school of Roman law at Oxford, with his 'extra-legal' works on marriage, Christology and heretical theology. This study accounts for this paradox by exploring these three extra-legal treatises, composed in the 1160s and 1170s, in light of Vacarius' legal textbook. The author argues that Vacarius applies the legal method of the ius commune (European common law) to theological and sacramental debates. In this way, Vacarius represents a trend in medieval intellectual history, particular to the twelfth-century renaissance, which has been little appreciated to date - the hermeneutic of the 'lawyer-theologian'.

Book Synopsis Kanonisches Recht und europäische Rechtskultur by : Richard H. Helmholz
Download or read book Kanonisches Recht und europäische Rechtskultur written by Richard H. Helmholz and published by Mohr Siebeck. This book was released on 2014-03-12 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Das vorliegende Werk ist die Übersetzung des 1996 erschienenen Buches The Spirit of Classical Canon Law. Darin stellt der Rechtshistoriker Richard H. Helmholz das klassische kanonische Recht als geistiges Produkt des hohen Mittelalters vom 12. bis 14. Jahrhundert vor und zeigt dessen Entwicklung bis in die frühe Neuzeit. Helmholz wählt charakteristische Bereiche, in denen das kirchliche Recht z.B. modernes Grundrechtsdenken geprägt hat: so bei der Freiheit zur Eheschließung, dem Verbot doppelter Strafverfolgung oder beim Anspruch auf juristische Fürsorge bei Bedürftigen. Helmholz führt darüber hinaus die Bedeutung der Sakramente für die kirchliche Rechtsordnung am Beispiel der Taufe vor. Das vielfältige und spannungsreiche Verhältnis der Kirche zur weltlichen Rechtsordnung wird ebenso in zahlreichen Phasen erfasst wie der große Anteil der Kanonistik in der Geschichte des Prozessrechts. Schließlich prüft Helmholz das Papsttum als zentrale Institution am Beispiel der päpstlichen Privilegien, zeigt dabei die Grenzen seiner Macht in der mittelalterlichen Rechtswirklichkeit auf.
