Download or read book Justice et démocratie written by John Rawls and published by Seuil. This book was released on 2000 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les sociétés contemporaines sont pluralistes, elles doivent réussir à faire vivre ensemble des cultures ou des groupes très divers. Comment concevoir un consensus démocratique qui reste respectueux de cette diversité sans être pour autant une simple rencontre d'intérêts divergents ? Quelle base morale commune faut-il pour que s'édifie et s'entretienne la confiance dans la justice des institutions ? Le célèbre auteur du monumental Théorie de la justice (Seuil, 1987) considéré comme la charte philosophique de la démocratie libérale, approfondit ici sa réflexion dans le sens d'une conception politique de la société multiculturelle.

Download or read book Earth Democracy written by Vandana Shiva and published by North Atlantic Books. This book was released on 2015-10-27 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: World-renowned environmental activist and physicist Vandana Shiva calls for a radical shift in the values that govern democracies, condemning the role that unrestricted capitalism has played in the destruction of environments and livelihoods. She explores the issues she helped bring to international attention—genetic food engineering, culture theft, and natural resource privatization—uncovering their links to the rising tide of fundamentalism, violence against women, and planetary death. Struggles on the streets of Seattle and Cancun and in homes and farms across the world have yielded a set of principles based on inclusion, nonviolence, reclaiming the commons, and freely sharing the earth’s resources. These ideals, which Dr. Shiva calls “Earth Democracy,” serve as an urgent call to peace and as the basis for a just and sustainable future.

Download or read book Thomas Aquinas written by John Hittinger and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2015-10-05 with total page 535 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pope John Paul II bestowed upon St. Thomas Aquinas the accolade of Doctor Humanitatis, or “Doctor of Humanity,” because he was ready to affirm the good or value of culture wherever it is to be found. Thomas is a teacher for our time because of his “assertions on the dignity of the human person and the use of his reason.” (“Inter Munera Academiarum,” 1999). This collection of papers explores the various philosophical and theological aspects of the thought of both Thomas Aquinas and John Paul II pertaining to this theme of “teacher of humanity.” The topics discussed here include the political praxis of Karol Wojtyla; Gadamer on common sense; prudence and subsidiarity; embodied cognition; the knowledge of God; the commandment of love; Pope Francis on the Beatitudes; the new evangelization; Thomism and modern cosmology; and the challenges of transhumanism and gender ideology. The papers were presented at a conference held in Houston, Texas, USA, in 2013, cosponsored by the Center for Thomistic Studies, the John Paul II Forum, and the Pontifical Academy of St. Thomas Aquinas. This work will help to realize in its small way the hopes of Saint John Paul II concerning St. Thomas Aquinas: “It is to be hoped that now and in the future there will be those who continue to cultivate this great philosophical and theological tradition [of Aquinas] for the good of both the Church and humanity.” (Fides et ratio §74) Additionally, it will undoubtedly be of interest to all participants in the cultivation of the thought of Thomas Aquinas, John Paul II, and the dialogue between Thomism and the modern world.
Book Synopsis Representations of Justice by : Antoine Masson
Download or read book Representations of Justice written by Antoine Masson and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2007 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The public understanding of law is gleaned from the cultural representation of justice which, in turn, reflects popular culture. Movies, caricatures, portrayal of trials by media or crime fiction shape the image of justice. However these representations play an important role in the legal system itself through the representation of truth as conveyed by litigating parties in their arguments. Studying how justice is represented in society is thus interesting for citizens who want to understand the popular culture but also for lawyers who want to understand theirs clients' expectations. This book explores in a multidisciplinary way the aspects of those representations of justice in their various forms in popular culture and in economics.

The courses deal with the theoretical and practical aspects of the subject, including legislation and case law. All courses at the Academy are, in principle, published in the language in which they were delivered in the "Collected Courses of the" "Hague Academy of International Law." This volume contains: - Souverainete territoriale et globalisation des marches: le domaine d'application des lois contre les restrictions de la concurrence, par J. BASEDOW, professeur a l'Universite libre de Berlin. The number of national laws that protect competition against private restrictions are constantly increasing. Their application to trans-boundary situations poses difficult problems for both private international law and public international law. The course deals with both, either with respect to application of the "lex fori" or with respect to application of foreign laws. - Enforcement in the International Context by K.D. KERAMEUS, Professor at the University of Athens. In recent years, enforcement proceedings have gone through a comprehensive reform in many countries. Furthermore, modern enforcement increasingly relies on foreign judgements. The course focuses on three subjects: the comparative element in recent codifications and case-law developments in the area of enforcement: salient and converging trends in the enforcement of foreign judgments on the basis of domestic law or international conventions: and the delimitation of "lex fori"and foreign law during the enforcement proceedings.

Book Synopsis Democratisation in the Maghreb by : J.N.C. Hill
Download or read book Democratisation in the Maghreb written by J.N.C. Hill and published by Edinburgh University Press. This book was released on 2016-08-04 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The past few years have been a period of unprecedented political upheaval for the Maghreb. A protest which began in a provincial city in one of North Africa's quieter corners quickly engulfed the entire region. Presidents of decades standing were swept from office on waves of public discontent while their counterparts elsewhere nervously tried to calm the mob. In several places these protests are still being played out; in the law courts of Egypt, on the battlefields of Libya, and in the leaking tubs carrying migrants to Europe. And even where the winds of change have died down, the political and social landscape is altered from before. Herein lies a defining paradox of the Arab Spring; its ubiquity and singularity. Nearly all of the region's countries have been affected. But despite making similar demands in largely the same ways over much the same period, their respective protest movements have achieved different results. Drawing on Steven Levitsky and Lucan Way's celebrated model for examining political transitions, this book explains these discrepancies, why Tunisia, Algeria, Morocco and Mauritania have reached different outcomes. It does so by contextualising each country's experiences, by examining and comparing their political development over the past decade.
Book Synopsis Valuing the Unique by : Lucien Karpik
Download or read book Valuing the Unique written by Lucien Karpik and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2010-07-21 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this landmark work of economic sociology, Lucien Karpik introduces the theory and practical tools needed to analyze markets for singularities. Singularities are goods and services that cannot be studied by standard methods because they are multidimensional, incommensurable, and of uncertain quality. Examples include movies, novels, music, artwork, fine wine, lawyers, and doctors. Valuing the Unique provides a theoretical framework to explain this important class of products and markets that for so long have eluded neoclassical economics. With this innovative theory--called the economics of singularities--Karpik shows that, because of the uncertainty and the highly subjective valuation of singularities, these markets are necessarily equipped with what he calls "judgment devices"--such as labels, brands, guides, critics, and rankings--which provide consumers with the credible knowledge needed to make reasonable choices. He explains why these markets are characterized by the primacy of competition by qualities over competition by prices, and he identifies the conditions under which singularities are constructed or are in danger of losing their uniqueness. After demonstrating how combinations of the numerous and multiform judgment devices can be used to identify different market models, Karpik applies his analytical tools to the functioning of a large number of actual markets, including fine wines, movies, luxury goods, pop music, and legal services.
Book Synopsis The Interaction Between Local and International Peacebuilding Actors by : Sara Hellmüller
Download or read book The Interaction Between Local and International Peacebuilding Actors written by Sara Hellmüller and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-12-22 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book helps to better understand how the interaction between local and international peacebuilding actors influences the outcomes of their programs. Based on the case study of Ituri in the Democratic Republic of Congo, it analyses the relationships between local and international peacebuilding actors over the long term and assesses ways to overcome the obstacles to more cooperative partnerships. Focusing on perceptions, the book nuances existing definitions of war, peacebuilding and peace and allows for a more comprehensive understanding of conflict contexts. Thereby, it contributes to the literature on peacebuilding effectiveness and makes concrete suggestions for translating these findings into practice.

Book Synopsis Judicial Enforcement and Implementation of European Union Law by : Ami Barav
Download or read book Judicial Enforcement and Implementation of European Union Law written by Ami Barav and published by Bruylant. This book was released on 2017-11-08 with total page 498 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The potency of the law in fostering the process of gradual European integration is easily discernable and widely acknowledged. It is largely and conspicuously revealed by the litigation before the courts of, both, the European Union and its Member States. The concern faithfully to give the European treaty the authentic meaning and scope as intended by its authors permeates the European courts’ judgments, and the constant theme of the entitlement of those vested with rights conferred by the law of the European Union to effective judicial protection is omnipresent in their decisions. The law of European integration has been uncharted territory. The novelty of various issues which have arisen and on which the courts have had to pronounce springs from the originality of the integration venture and is commensurate with its uniqueness, distinctive nature and specific exigencies. The writings here assembled allow to trace the starting point since the inceptive formative years of the growth of a legal doctrine and an evolving jurisprudential edifice in several areas, to appraise their direction and constancy and to assay adjustments and adaptations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Die Europäische Richtervereinigung EAJ beschäftigt sich seit Jahren mit der Situation der Justiz und des Rechtsstaates in Europa. Sie stellt mit grosser Sorge fest, dass die Unabhängigkeit der Justiz, die Gewaltenteilung und die Rule of Law in vielen Ländern keine Selbstverständlichkeit mehr sind. Ein Beispiel für diese negative Entwicklung – in ihrem Ausmass in diesem Jahrhundert einmalig – sind die Geschehnisse in der Türkei. Die Beiträge in diesem Buch stammen von Richterinnen und Richtern aus ganz Europa und von Juristinnen und Juristen aus der Türkei, welche über die Entwicklung in ihrem Land aus erster Hand berichten. Die Autoren aus der Türkei schreiben jeweils unter einem Pseudonym: Unter den heutigen Bedingungen können sie es nicht wagen, unter ihrem Namen offen Kritik an der rechtsstaatlichen Situation zu äussern: Bereits dieser Umstand alleine ist eine wichtige Aussage im Kontext des behandelten Themas. Die Beiträge wenden sich an Juristinnen und Juristen, Politikerinnen und Politiker, aber auch an alle anderen an Rechtsstaatlichkeit, gewaltenteiliger Demokratie und unabhängiger Justiz interessierte Leserinnen und Leser in ganz Europa – inklusive der Türkei – und in Übersee. Das Buch ist vielsprachig: Die Beiträge sind auf Englisch, Deutsch oder Französisch geschrieben; sie enthalten je eine Kurzzusammenfassung in Englisch, Französisch, Deutsch und Türkisch.
