Book Synopsis Lecturas de historia del pensamiento político II : el carácter del estado moderno europeo by : Michael Oakeshott
Download or read book Lecturas de historia del pensamiento político II : el carácter del estado moderno europeo written by Michael Oakeshott and published by . This book was released on 2013-09 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tras la publicación del primer volumen de las ±Lecciones de Historia del Pensamiento Político, presentamos ahora su continuación. Bajo la rúbrica de ±El carácter del Estado Europeo Moderno se agrupa la segunda parte de las Lecciones impartidas por M. Oakeshott en la London School of Economics, cuyo objeto principal es explicar cómo surge la experiencia política conocida como Estado en la Europa moderna y las circunstancias que lo rodean. Al igual que en el primero de los dos volúmenes que componen esta serie de Lecciones, Oakeshott va a continuar empleando el término ±experiencia como concepto sobre el que vertebra su explicación. En este caso, y a diferencia del volumen anterior, solo dará cuenta de una experiencia: el Estado de la Europa Moderna. Es esta realidad, el Estado, y su contexto, la Europa Moderna, lo que va a constituir el foco de su explicación. Como en casi todos sus escritos, tanto anteriores como posteriores a los años en los que ocupó la Cátedra de Ciencia Política en la LSE, si hay algo que podamos destacar a priori es la originalidad y la capacidad de sugerencia de su interpretación. Bien por su condición de historiador que analiza la realidad política o bien por su personalísima interpretación de la realidad estatal, Oakeshott es capaz de presentarnos un fenómeno bien conocido, y estudiado, el nacimiento del Estado Moderno, de una forma ±creativamente novedosa.

Download or read book The Politics written by Aristotle and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 1981-09-17 with total page 455 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Twenty-three centuries after its compilation, 'The Politics' still has much to contribute to this central question of political science. Aristotle's thorough and carefully argued analysis is based on a study of over 150 city constitutions, covering a huge range of political issues in order to establish which types of constitution are best - both ideally and in particular circumstances - and how they may be maintained. Aristotle's opinions form an essential background to the thinking of philosophers such as Thomas Aquinas, Machiavelli and Jean Bodin and both his premises and arguments raise questions that are as relevant to modern society as they were to the ancient world.
Book Synopsis What Was History? by : Anthony Grafton
Download or read book What Was History? written by Anthony Grafton and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2012-03-29 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the late fifteenth century onwards, scholars across Europe began to write books about how to read and evaluate histories. These pioneering works grew from complex early modern debates about law, religion and classical scholarship. Anthony Grafton's book is based on his Trevelyan Lectures of 2005, and it proves to be a powerful and imaginative exploration of some central themes in the history of European ideas. Grafton explains why so many of these works were written, why they attained so much insight – and why, in the centuries that followed, most scholars gradually forgot that they had existed. Elegant and accessible, What Was History? is a deliberate evocation of E. H. Carr's celebrated Trevelyan Lectures, What Is History?.
Book Synopsis Lectures in the History of Political Thought by : Michael Oakeshott
Download or read book Lectures in the History of Political Thought written by Michael Oakeshott and published by Andrews UK Limited. This book was released on 2011-10-24 with total page 563 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Oakeshott's memorable lectures on the history of political thought, delivered each year at the London School of Economics, will now be available in print for the first time as Volume II of his Selected Writings. Based on manuscripts in the LSE archive for 1966–67, the last year of Oakeshott's tenure as Professor of Political Science, these thirty lectures deal with Greek, Roman, mediaeval, and modern European political thought in a uniquely accessible manner. Scholars familiar with Oakeshott’s work will recognize his own ideas subtly blended with an exposition carefully crafted for an undergraduate audience; those discovering Oakeshott for the first time will find an account of the subject that remains illuminating and provocative.
Book Synopsis The Politics of Faith and the Politics of Scepticism by : Michael Oakeshott
Download or read book The Politics of Faith and the Politics of Scepticism written by Michael Oakeshott and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 1996-01-01 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Michael Oakeshott, the foremost British political philosopher of the twentieth century, died in 1990, leaving a substantial collection of unpublished material. Yale University Press is continuing to make available the best of these illuminating works. In this polished and hitherto unknown work, Oakeshott argues that modern politics was constituted out of a debate, persistent through centuries of European political experience down to our own day, over the question "What should governments do?" According to Oakeshott, two different answers have dominated our thought since the fifteenth century. One, exemplified by such thinkers as Rousseau and Marx, expresses a belief in the capacity of human beings to control, design, and monitor all aspects of social and political life, a belief fostered by the intoxicating increase in power available to governments in modern times. On the other hand, sceptics such as Montaigne, Pascal, and Hobbes argued that governments cannot, in principle, produce perfection and that we should prevent concentrations of power that may result in tyrannies that oppress the dignity of the human spirit. Oakeshott exposes the pitfalls of both positions and shows the value of a middle ground that incorporates scepticism with enough faith to avoid total quietism. Readers of Oakeshott will find here the thinking that lies behind his famous definition of politics as "the pursuit of intimations.".

Book Synopsis Without Criteria by : Steven Shaviro
Download or read book Without Criteria written by Steven Shaviro and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2012-08-17 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Deleuzian reading of Whitehead and a Whiteheadian reading of Deleuze open the possibility of a critical aesthetics of contemporary culture. In Without Criteria, Steven Shaviro proposes and explores a philosophical fantasy: imagine a world in which Alfred North Whitehead takes the place of Martin Heidegger. What if Whitehead, instead of Heidegger, had set the agenda for postmodern thought? Heidegger asks, “Why is there something, rather than nothing?” Whitehead asks, “How is it that there is always something new?” In a world where everything from popular music to DNA is being sampled and recombined, argues Shaviro, Whitehead's question is the truly urgent one. Without Criteria is Shaviro's experiment in rethinking postmodern theory, especially the theory of aesthetics, from a point of view that hearkens back to Whitehead rather than Heidegger. In working through the ideas of Whitehead and Deleuze, Shaviro also appeals to Kant, arguing that certain aspects of Kant's thought pave the way for the philosophical “constructivism” embraced by both Whitehead and Deleuze. Kant, Whitehead, and Deleuze are not commonly grouped together, but the juxtaposition of them in Without Criteria helps to shed light on a variety of issues that are of concern to contemporary art and media practices.

Book Synopsis A Guide to the Classics by : Guy Griffith
Download or read book A Guide to the Classics written by Guy Griffith and published by Andrews UK Limited. This book was released on 2017-06-15 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally written in 1936 by two young Cambridge Fellows, A Guide to the Classics is a light-hearted manual on how to pick the Derby winner. However, as the tongue-in-cheek title suggested, there is more to the book than meets the eye, especially as one of the young dons went on to become, according to his 1990 Telegraph obituary, 'the greatest political philosopher in the Anglo-Saxon tradition since Mill - or even Burke'. The book takes the abstraction out of the Derby by attacking the systems which had been developed by generations of 'form' experts. It exposes theoretical solutions as fraudulent – instead it applies hard-headed empirical and historical analysis. Oakeshott went on to apply this methodology to his famous critique of 'rationalism' in politics. This long-awaited edition of Griffith and Oakeshott's classic text includes a new preface and foreword by horse racing journalist and author Sean Magee, and political commentator Peter Oborne.

Book Synopsis Marx and Latin America by : José M. Aricó
Download or read book Marx and Latin America written by José M. Aricó and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2013-12-10 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a work centred on Marx's harsh biography of Simón Bolívar, José Aricó examines why Latin America was apparently 'excluded' from Marx's thought, challenging the allegation that this expressed some 'Eurocentric' prejudice. Aricó shows how the German thinker's hostility towards the Bonapartism and authoritarianism he identified in the Liberator coloured his attitude towards the continent and the significance of its independence-processes. Whilst criticising Marx's misreading of Latin-American realities, Aricó demonstrates contemporaneous, countervailing tendencies in Marx's thought, including his appraisal of the revolutionary potentialities of other 'peripheral' extra-European societies. As such, Aricó convincingly argues that Marx's work was not a dogma of linear 'progress', but a living, contradictory body of thought constantly in development. English translation of the Marx y América Latina edition, Fondo de Cultura Económica, 2010.
