Download or read book Kant and Law written by B.Sharon Byrd and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 602 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Immanuel Kant's legal philosophy and theory have played an enormous role in the development of law since the eighteenth century. Although this influence can be seen primarily in German law and in the law of nations which have traditionally been oriented toward German legal development, today Kant's philosophy has experienced a Renaissance in the Anglo-American legal world. This anthology collects what the editors believe to be the very best of articles on Kant's legal theory, with an emphasis on his Metaphysics of Morals of 1797. In particular the articles relate to: 1) the nature of law and justice, 2) private law, 3) public law, 4) criminal law, 5) international law, and 6) cosmopolitan law.
Book Synopsis Trust in Early Modern International Political Thought, 1598–1713 by : Peter Schröder
Download or read book Trust in Early Modern International Political Thought, 1598–1713 written by Peter Schröder and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2017-03-06 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Can there ever be trust between states? This study explores the concept of trust across different and sometimes antagonistic genres of international political thought during the seventeenth century. The natural law and reason of state traditions worked on different assumptions, but they mutually influenced each other. How have these traditions influenced the different concepts and discussions of trust-building? Bringing together international political thought and international law, Schröder analyses to what extent trust can be seen as one of the foundational concepts in the theorising of interstate relations in this decisive period. Despite the ongoing search for conditions of trust between states, we are still faced with the same structural problems. This study is therefore of interest not only to specialists and students of the early modern period, but also to everyone thinking about ways of overcoming conflicts which are aggravated by a lack of mutual trust.
Book Synopsis The Emperor's Old Clothes by : Barbara Stollberg-Rilinger
Download or read book The Emperor's Old Clothes written by Barbara Stollberg-Rilinger and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2015-08-01 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For many years, scholars struggled to write the history of the constitution and political structure of the Holy Roman Empire. This book argues that this was because the political and social order could not be understood without considering the rituals and symbols that held the Empire together. What determined the rules (and whether they were followed) depended on complex symbolic-ritual actions. By examining key moments in the political history of the Empire, the author shows that it was a vocabulary of symbols, not the actual written laws, that formed a political language indispensable in maintaining the common order.
Book Synopsis Instruction Shall Go Forth by : John T. Willis
Download or read book Instruction Shall Go Forth written by John T. Willis and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2014-06-11 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study of the eighth-century prophets has experienced major changes over the past five decades. In these articles, published during a time when traditional methods of reading these texts gave way to new interests and approaches, John Willis addresses some of the major challenges facing interpreters of the prophetic works as coherent books. The careful attention to detail in the biblical texts themselves and in the history of scholarship shown in these essays offers a helpful model for scholars seeking to understand the ancient texts and appropriate them for new conditions.
Book Synopsis Region-building by : Ludger Kühnhardt
Download or read book Region-building written by Ludger Kühnhardt and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2010-07-01 with total page 511 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After two centuries of nation-building, the world has entered an era of region-building in search of political stability, cultural cohesion, and socio-economic development. Nations involved in the regional structures and integration schemes that are emerging in most regions of the world are deepening their ambitions, with Europe’s integration experience often used as an experimental template or theoretical model. Volume I provides a political-analytical framework for recognizing the central role of the European Union not only as a conceptual model but also a normative engine in the global proliferation of regional integration. It also gives a comprehensive treatment of the focus, motives, and objectives of non-European integration efforts. Volume II offers a unique collection of documents that give the best available overview of the legal and political evolution of region-building based on official documents and stated objectives of the relevant regional groupings across all continents. Together, these volumes are important contributions for understanding the evolution of global affairs in an age when power shifts provide new challenges and opportunities for transatlantic partners and the world community.
Book Synopsis Transformations in Medieval and Early-Modern Rights Discourse by : Virpi Mäkinen
Download or read book Transformations in Medieval and Early-Modern Rights Discourse written by Virpi Mäkinen and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rights language is a fundamental feature of the modern world. Virtually all significant social and political struggles are waged, and have been waged for over a century now, in terms of rights claims. In some ways, it is precisely the birth of modern rights language that ushers in modernity in terms of moral and political thought, and the struggle for a modern way of life seems for many synonymous with the fight for a universal recognition of equal, individual human rights. Where did modern rights language come from? What kinds of rights discourses is it rooted in? What is the specific nature of modern rights discourse; when and where were medieval and ancient notions of rights transformed into it? Can one in fact find any single such transformation of medieval into modern rights discourse? The present volume brings together some of the most central scholars in the history of medieval and early-modern rights discourse. Through the different angles taken by its authors, the volume brings to light the multifaceted nature of rights languages in the medieval and early modern world.
Book Synopsis Magic and the Dignity of Man by : Brian P. Copenhaver
Download or read book Magic and the Dignity of Man written by Brian P. Copenhaver and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2019-11-19 with total page 705 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “This book is nothing less than the definitive study of a text long considered central to understanding the Renaissance and its place in Western culture.” —James Hankins, Harvard University Pico della Mirandola died in 1494 at the age of thirty-one. During his brief and extraordinary life, he invented Christian Kabbalah in a book that was banned by the Catholic Church after he offered to debate his ideas on religion and philosophy with anyone who challenged him. Today he is best known for a short speech, the Oration on the Dignity of Man, written in 1486 but never delivered. Sometimes called a “Manifesto of the Renaissance,” this text has been regarded as the foundation of humanism and a triumph of secular rationality over medieval mysticism. Brian Copenhaver upends our understanding of Pico’s masterwork by re-examining this key document of modernity. An eminent historian of philosophy, Copenhaver shows that the Oration is not about human dignity. In fact, Pico never wrote an Oration on the Dignity of Man and never heard of that title. Instead he promoted ascetic mysticism, insisting that Christians need help from Jews to find the path to heaven—a journey whose final stages are magic and Kabbalah. Through a rigorous philological reading of this much-studied text, Copenhaver transforms the history of the idea of dignity and reveals how Pico came to be misunderstood over the course of five centuries. Magic and the Dignity of Man is a seismic shift in the study of one of the most remarkable thinkers of the Renaissance.

This book was released on 2014-06-19 with total page 1520 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.

Close attention is paid to the context of medieval philosophy, with discussions of the rise of the universities and developments in the cultural and linguistic spheres. A striking feature is the continuous coverage of Islamic, Jewish, and Christian material. There are useful biographies of the philosophers, and a comprehensive bibliography. The volumes illuminate a rich and remarkable period in the history of philosophy and will be the authoritative source on medieval philosophy for the next generation of scholars and students alike.
Book Synopsis Regional Integration – Europe and Asia Compared by : Woosik Moon
Download or read book Regional Integration – Europe and Asia Compared written by Woosik Moon and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of this book is to examine and compare the integration process in both Europe and Asia, and to draw some possible lessons for East Asia from the European experience, which culminated with the establishment of the economic and monetary union. The book embraces the political dimension of integration (peace and security), economic, trade and monetary aspects, and cultural aspects. Written by well-known experts in the field of integration, this book represents one of the first attempts at comparing Europe and Asia in the process of integration, by incorporating the latest developments in the field. The main theme of the book - integration in Asia from a comparative perspective - has been relatively unexplored as most experts in the field of integration are also 'area experts' (i.e. European integration experts or Asian experts). The contributors to the book provide a distinctive perspective based upon their understanding of integration (political, economic, and socio-cultural) across various regions of the world.

Book Synopsis The Christian faith and the fourth dimension by : Otto Bachmann
Download or read book The Christian faith and the fourth dimension written by Otto Bachmann and published by novum publishing. This book was released on 2024-10-03 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the course of the 19th and 20th centuries, mathematics and physics have developed from a discipline tainted with intuition and metaphysics into a scientifically rigorous discipline. In contrast, ideas about fundamental topics of the Christian faith - such as God, the truth of the Bible, the relationship between faith and science, the meaning of life, the question of theodicy - are often based on outdated world views and systems of thought as well as unproven hypotheses and imprecise definitions. The book provides important arguments on the truth of the Bible and leads to a deeper access to basic concepts of theology and to a strengthening of the Christian faith.
