Book Synopsis Political Theory in Modern Germany by : Chris Thornhill
Download or read book Political Theory in Modern Germany written by Chris Thornhill and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-06-10 with total page 487 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an accessible and comprehensive introduction to the major political thinkers of modern Germany. It includes chapters on the works of Max Weber, Carl Schmitt, Franz Neumann, Otto Kirchheimer, Jurgen Habermas and Niklas Luhmann. These works are examined in their social and historical contexts, ranging from the period of Bismarck to the present day. A clear picture is presented of the connections between individual theoretical positions and the general political conditions of modern Germany. Areas of political history covered in particular depth include nineteenth-century legal and parliamentary history, aspects of German liberalism, Weimar social democracy, political Catholicism, Adenauer and Erhard, Brandt's reforms and the Tendenzwende of the late 1970s. By closely linking intellectual and political history, this work examines how recent German political theory has developed as a set of varying responses to recurring aspects and problems of political life in modern Germany. At the same time, it addresses the philosophical and political implications of the works which it treats, and it critically examines how modern German political theory has contributed to broader attempts to theorize political legitimacy and politics itself. This book will be of interest to students of political theory, German studies and European political history.

Book Synopsis TRANSPOSITIONES 2024 Vol. 3, Issue 1: Eco-Religiosity by : Joanna Godlewicz-Adamiec
Download or read book TRANSPOSITIONES 2024 Vol. 3, Issue 1: Eco-Religiosity written by Joanna Godlewicz-Adamiec and published by V&R unipress. This book was released on 2024-04-15 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a critical ecological approach, the entanglement of nature in the discourses of supernatural religious doctrine and practice is often perceived as one of the causes of the instrumentalization of the natural world for anthropocentric hegemony over divine creation. On the other hand, a certain “environmental turn” can be observed in the theological discourses of various religions. In addition to the eco-theological tendencies present in contemporary theological reflection within the world’s main religions, another interesting phenomenon is the attempt to restore archaic forms of spirituality in the materialistic discourses of posthumanism. These issues are critically analyzed in individual articles taking into account various approaches and thematic circles.

Download or read book Germany written by Neil MacGregor and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2015-09-29 with total page 628 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the past 140 years, Germany has been the central power in continental europe. Twenty-five years ago a new German state came into being. How much do we really understand this new Germany, and how do its people understand themselves? Neil MacGregor argues that, uniquely for any European country, no coherent, overarching narrative of Germany's history can be constructed, for in Germany both geography and history have always been unstable. Its frontiers have constantly shifted. Königsberg, home to the greatest German philosopher, Immanuel Kant, is now Kaliningrad, Russia; Strasbourg, in whose cathedral Wolfgang von Geothe, Germany's greatest writer, discovered the distinctiveness of his country's art and history, now lies within the borders of France. For most of the five hundred years covered by this book Germany has been composed of many separate political units, each with a distinct history. And any comfortable national story Germans might have told themselves before 1914 was destroyed by the events of the following thirty years. German history may be inherently fragmented, but it contains a large number of widely shared memories, awarenesses, and experiences; examining some of these is the purpose of this book. MacGregor chooses objects and ideas, people and places that still resonate in the new Germany—porcelain from Dresden and rubble from its ruins, Bauhaus design and the German sausage, the crown of Charlemagne and the gates of Buchenwald—to show us something of its collective imagination. There has never been a book about Germany quite like it.
Book Synopsis French Revolutionaries in the Ottoman Empire by : Pascal Firges
Download or read book French Revolutionaries in the Ottoman Empire written by Pascal Firges and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2017 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The effects of the French Revolution reached far beyond the confines of France itself. The Ottoman Empire, ancient ally and major trading partner of France, was not immune from the repercussions of the 'Age of Revolutions', especially since it was home to permanent French communities with a certain legal autonomy. French Revolutionaries in the Ottoman Empire examines, for the first time, the political and cultural impact of the French Revolution on Franco-Ottoman relations, as well as on the French communities of the Ottoman Empire. The modern interpretation of revolutionary ideological expansionism is strongly influenced by the famous propaganda decree of 19 November 1792 which promised 'fraternity and help to all peoples who wish to recover their liberty', as well as the well-studied efforts to export the Revolution into the territories conquered by the revolutionary armies and to the various Sister Republics. Against all expectations, however, French revolutionaries in the Ottoman Empire exhibited neither a 'crusading mentality' nor a heightened readiness to use force in order to achieve ideological goals. Instead, as this volume shows, in matters of diplomacy as well as in the administration of French expatriate communities, revolutionary policies were applied in an extremely circumspect fashion. The focus on the effects of the French regime change outside of France offers valuable new insights into the revolutionary process itself, which will revise common assumptions about French revolutionary diplomacy. In addition, Pascal Firges takes a close look at the establishment of the new political culture of the French Revolution within the transcultural context of the French expatriate communities of the Ottoman Empire, which serves as a thought-provoking point of comparison for the emergence and development of French revolutionary political culture.
Book Synopsis Political Violence in the Weimar Republic, 1918-1933 by : Dirk Schumann
Download or read book Political Violence in the Weimar Republic, 1918-1933 written by Dirk Schumann and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2012-04 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In noting that political violence was the product of choices made by political actors rather than the result of irresistible forces ...Schumann issues a pertinent warning while making a first-rate contribution to the scholarly literature on the Weimar Republic. Central European History A well-documented and skillfully argued book. German Studies Review In his exceptional regional study of the Prussian province of Saxony, Schumann offers a richly detailed analysis of political violence in the Weimar Republic...This is a wordy but methodical and ultimately convincing work of scholarship. Choice Schumann ... calls into question some assumptions, provides interesting nuances, and helps to refine our understanding of the nature of political violence in Weimar Germany. Journal of Modern History ... provides a well-documented, solid narrative and challenging analysis of Weimar's political violence... American Historical Review This] definitive work, rich in source material and analysis, dispels stereotypes of political violence in the Weimar Republic. Historische Zeitschrift The Prussian province of Saxony-where the Communist uprising of March 1921 took place and two Combat Leagues (Wehrverb nde) were founded (the right-wing Stahlhelm and the Social Democratic Reichsbanner) - is widely recognized as a politically important region in this period of German history. Using a case study of this socially diverse province, this book provides a comprehensive analysis of political violence in Weimar Germany with particular emphasis on the political culture from which it emerged. It refutes both the claim that the Bolshevik revolution was the prime cause of violence, and the argument that the First World War's all-encompassing "brutalization" doomed post-1918 German political life from the very beginning. The study thus contributes to a view of the Weimar Republic as a state in severe crisis but with alternatives to the Nazi takeover. Dirk Schumann is Professor of History at Georg-August University, G ttingen. He is the co-editor of Life After Death (2003), Violence and Society after the First World War (first issue of Journal of Modern European History 2003]), Between Mass Death and Individual Loss (2007). Most recently, he has edited Raising Citizens in the "Century of the Child" The United States and German Central Europe in Comparative Perspective (2010).
Book Synopsis Politik, Hermeneutik, Humanität by : Jürgen Gebhardt
Download or read book Politik, Hermeneutik, Humanität written by Jürgen Gebhardt and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Der vorliegende Sammelband präsentiert aus Anlaß des siebzigsten Geburtstages Jürgen Gebhardts eine Auswahl von Aufsätzen des Jubilars, die sowohl die thematische Breite als auch die hohe Aktualität seines umfangreichen Oeuvres zeigt. Im ersten Teil des Bandes sind Aufsätze zu allgemeinen Problemen des politiktheoretischen Diskurses versammelt. Gebhardts konzeptionelle Überlegungen vereinigen eine kritische Rezeption der klassischen politischen Philosophie mit Gedanken zum Entwurf einer politischen Symboltheorie und mit Ansätzen einer interzivilisatorisch vergleichenden politischen Kulturforschung. Die einzelnen Aufsätze ergänzen sich zu der Grundlegung einer eigenständigen »empirisch-hermeneutischen Theorie des Politischen«, die Gebhardt in ihrer vorläufig letzten Form in einem Aufsatz von 1999 formuliert.Im zweiten Teil des Bandes sind eine Reihe von ideengeschichtlichen Studien zusammengestellt. Die Studien zeigen die enge Verknüpfung der konzeptionellen Überlegungen Gebhardts mit den konkreten historischen Untersuchungen. Sie umfassen die Auseinandersetzung mit den Werken einzelner Denker ebenso wie die Analyse breiterer soziopolitischer und -kultureller Prozesse und Konstellationen. Historisch wird dabei ein Bogen von der hellenischen Antike über den Humanismus der Renaissance bis zum modernen republikanischen Verfassungsstaat gespannt. Die konzeptionellen Fragen, die Gebhardt im Rahmen seiner historischen Studien behandelt, reichen von der im Neukantianismus des 19. Jahrhunderts wurzelnden Werte-Problematik, die das Wissenschaftsverständnis im 20. Jahrhundert nachhaltig geprägt hat, über die Kontinuitäten und Diskontinuitäten in der Geschichte des Republikanismus bis hin zu Fragen des Verhältnisses von Religion und Politik.Zusätzlich wurde in den zweiten Teil je ein Aufsatz zu Hannah Arendt, Leo Strauss und Eric Voegelin aufgenommen, also zu drei der wichtigsten Vertreter einer philosophisch-hermeneutischen und kritischen Politikwissenschaft im 20. Jahrhundert, in deren Tradition Gebhardts politisches Denken grundsätzlich steht.

Book Synopsis Crisis of the Ottoman Empire by : James J. Reid
Download or read book Crisis of the Ottoman Empire written by James J. Reid and published by Franz Steiner Verlag. This book was released on 2000 with total page 528 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work focuses upon the military problems of the Ottoman Empire in the era 1839 to 1878. The author examines the Crimean War (1853 to 1856) from the perspective of the Ottoman army, using British and French sources, as well as the few available Ottoman materials. Scholarship on the war has ignored this aspect, but the high quality of work about the British, French, and Russian involvement in the war has enabled the present study to advance its own work. The inability of the Ottoman high command to learn the lessons of the Crimean War led to serious defeats in the Russo-Turkish War of 1877-1878. Revolts occurring in this period also receive attention. While the book analyzes the nature of war in the Balkans and Anatolia, its primary objective is the study of the war's social and psychological influences. This perspective runs as a theme throughout the book, but the author focuses on the psychological aspects in the final chapter using comparative perspectives. .
