    Book SynopsisA study of communities in the Horn of Africa where reciprocity is a dominant social principle, offering a concrete countermodel to the hierarchical state.Over the course of history, people have developed many varieties of communal life; the state, with its hierarchical structure, is only one of the possibilities for society. In this book, leading anthropologist Hermann Amborn identifies a countermodel to the state, describing communities where reciprocity is a dominant social principle and where egalitarianism is a matter of course. He pays particular attention to such communities in the Horn of Africa, where nonhierarchical, nonstate societies exist within the borders of a hierarchical structured state. This form of community, Amborn shows, is not a historical forerunner to monarchy or the primitive state, nor is it obsolete as a social model. These communities offer a concrete counterexample to societies with strict hierarchical structures.Amborn investigates social

    Book SynopsisAn argument that the development of scientific practice and growth of scientific knowledge are governed by Darwin’s evolutionary model of descent with modification.Although scientific investigation is influenced by our cognitive and moral failings as well as all of the factors impinging on human life, the historical development of scientific knowledge has trended toward an increasingly accurate picture of an increasing number of phenomena. Taking a fresh look at Thomas Kuhn’s 1962 work, The Structure of Scientific Revolutions, in How Knowledge Grows Chris Haufe uses evolutionary theory to explain both why scientific practice develops the way it does and how scientific knowledge expands. This evolutionary model, claims Haufe, helps to explain what is epistemically special about scientific knowledge: its tendency to grow in both depth and breadth.Kuhn showed how intellectual communities achieve consensus in part by discriminating against i

    Book SynopsisAs Hauerwas' effort to develop a uniquely Christian ethic, this book moves from such general themes as ""Keeping Theological Ethics Theological"" and ""Keeping Theological Ethics Imaginative"" to the application of these themes to such diverse topics as the Holocaust, Jonestown and nuclear war.Trade Review"Against the Nations is vintage Hauerwas: thoughtful, provocative and always challenging. . . . The strength of this book is precisely this call to Christian faithfulness. Hauerwas has reminded us of the dangers of accommodation to the fashions of the world: his book is a call for a bold Christian moral witness." —Transformation"These essays—on matters as diverse as theological method, nuclear disarmament, pacifism, the Holocaust, and the Jonestown suicides—are united by a gracious alienation which enables their author to flush out and rough up many of the dogmas of sectarian secularism." —Commonweal"Hauerwas defends his pacifist position against the best of the just-war tradition. As a postliberal theologian in a post-Christian age, Hauerwas intentionally avoids making universal pacifist claims, preferring to debate with Christian realists and just-war theorists . . . who offer the strongest challenge to pacifism. Hauerwas insists that Christian ethics and the Church must proceed from the Gospel's message of peace, and not from natural law or liberal theology. Hauerwas's unusual strength as a pacifist is his willingness to confront squarely the political reality of the world in its most destructive forms (Holocaust, nuclear annihilation, Jonestown)." —Choice

  • University of Notre Dame Press Natural Law and Human Rights

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisPierre Manent is one of France's leading political philosophers. This first English translation of his profound and strikingly original book La loi naturelle et les droits de l'homme is a reflection on the central question of the Western political tradition.Trade Review“In Natural Law and Human Rights, the French philosopher Pierre Manent provides a searching critique of the doctrines, policies, and practices of ‘human rights’ prevailing today. To interpret or replace them, he proposes the original natural law that is always available to anyone who ponders the basic human experiences. That law, knowable and accessible in our time, is our guide to live for the best.” —Harvey C. Mansfield, Kenan Professor of Government, Harvard University; Senior Fellow, the Hoover Institution, Stanford University“Pierre Manent’s book is a compact feast. Once properly digested, his thesis is original and electrifying.” —Patrick Deneen, author of Why Liberalism Failed“Pierre Manent takes on the now-daring task of rehabilitating classical natural law and does so with what might be described as Gallic verve.” —Will Morrisey, author of The Dilemma of Progressivism“Why is the 'critique of modernity' such a ubiquitous genre? . . . Natural Law and Human Rights, the new book by formidable French political theorist Pierre Manent, provides another framework for understanding the proliferation of these critiques of modernity.” —The Hedgehog Review"This is a bold book, and Patrick Deneen’s back-cover blurb of this book as a 'compact feast' may undersell it. This book is a treasure chest, for in a little more than 100 pages Manent lavishly offers gems of insight. His greatest jewel of wisdom is that modern man cannot win his fight against the natural law, for it is still part of him, deny it though he may." —The Federalist“Manent’s prescient critique of human rights may be the best tool at our disposal to interpret the weaknesses that COVID-19 has revealed. The modern politics of human rights is too individualistic, too theoretical, and too technical, Manent warns, all faults that poison our ability to deliberate the natural ends of man and make a real choices, take real actions.” —The American Mind“It takes a bold man to offer public criticism of the idea of ‘human rights.’ . . . The western world is blessed to have such a man—bold, profound, and prudent—in Pierre Manent. All of these virtues are displayed in his excellent new book, Natural Law and Human Rights. . . . The book is rich in insight, the fruit of Manent’s decades of deep meditation on the history of political philosophy and on the intellectual, moral, and political predicament of the modern world.” —Public Discourse“[Manent] details the need for our discourse on human rights to be reintegrated into what he calls an ‘archic’ understanding of human and political existence. Only by seeing rights as rooted in duties and by seeing them in light of the the natural moral law can we be both intellectually sound in our practical reasoning and well-grounded in our claims about human rights.” —International Philosophical Quarterly“In a remarkable book titled Natural Law and Human Rights: Toward a Recovery of Practical Reason, Manent responds to Montaigne’s challenge. Here Manent persuasively defends the enduring relevance of the old cardinal virtues—courage, justice, prudence, and moderation—and of a conception of non-arbitrary conscience that can provide practical reason with rich moral content.” —The New Criterion"Manent helps us to see the deep chasm that lies between the modern human rights worldview and that of natural law." —The New BioethicsTable of Contents1.

    Book SynopsisA discussion of women thinkers in political philosophy, and the nature of political inquiry.Trade Review“Recognizing that women political theorists exist in gratifying abundance beginning as far back as 2300 B.C.E., Penny Weiss saves these women writers from their destiny as ‘canon fodder.’ With great zest, creativity, and imagination, Weiss reintroduces us to fascinating female thinkers who have contributed to key concepts in the history of political thought. In a lively writing style that often mimics the rhetoric of each thinker, Weiss engages both students and scholars in a discussion of the compelling—but often invisible—arguments that feminist thinkers have contributed to political theory debates.”—Lori Marso,Union College“It is a provocative work that will lead to broad-based discussions in political science, philosophy, and women’s studies. The work’s greatest contribution is its claims for the importance of women’s political and feminist theory from the past, and what it has to teach us today.”—Hilda Smith,University of Cincinnati“This book should have been written long ago, and Weiss superbly delivers her subject. This engaging work should be read and discussed widely by scholars and students of political science, philosophy, and women’s studies.”—M.

  • Pennsylvania State University Press Feminist Interpretations of William James

    Out of stock

    Book SynopsisA collection of essays examining the writings of William James. Provides a reinterpretation of pragmatism to devise philosophical resources for pragmatist feminism that challenge sexism and male privilege.Trade Review“William James has often been praised for highlighting the more ‘feminine’ dimensions of philosophy, while being criticized for ignoring important ‘feminist’ considerations. The present volume focuses on and highlights this conundrum, and it does so in a rich and informative manner. James’s many contributions are acknowledged, but his work is viewed, and elaborated upon, from a broader perspective of feminism.”—William Gavin,University of Southern Maine“The authors show that James's work clearly presents difficulties for feminists and how feminists might engage with James's ethical philosophy, the role of the body, and matters of epistemology. The editing is well executed, and explanatory notes appear throughout. Though the book is best suited to scholars with a background in James's work, the descriptions and analyses are convincing and will be useful even to those without significant prior exposure to James.”—M. K. Bloodsworth-Lugo Choice“This volume represents some of the best applications of feminist pragmatist scholarship. It also takes seriously the documented sexism of a seemingly socially progressive and well-intentioned pragmatist philosopher, William James. . . . This method of rereading the canon serves as a model for feminists to generate complex and rich interpretive horizons that don't excuse the sexism of the philosopher as accidental to his philosophical theories, nor advocate a wholesale rejection of the philosopher's work as essentially sexist, but seek a middle interpretive ground that critically engages the philosopher's social prejudice while attempting to transform pragmatist thought toward meeting the goals of feminist projects.”—Celia Bardwell-Jones Hypatia Reviews Online“A welcome and lively contribution on William James, and adds significantly to the series’ wider reconstructive project. . . . James is here revealed warts-and-all, and that certainly is to the good of Jamesian scholarship, pragmatism, and feminist philosophy more generally.”—Clara Fischer Transactions of the Charles S.

He argues that it cannot deliver what it promises—and if it could, no one would want what it is selling.”—David Cole, New York Review of Books Listed by Wall Street Journal in “12 Books to Read: The Best Reviews of September” “Chemerinsky has written a powerful, respectful but devastating critique of the political practice known as originalism. This rich and careful book provides essential context for understanding the confusions and self-deceptions of that project.”—Aziz Z. Huq, Frank and Bernice J. Greenberg Professor of Law, University of Chicago “Worse Than Nothing addresses an exceptionally timely and significant issue. Chemerinsky provides a definitive account of the rise and pitfalls of originalism that is accessible to a broad audience of lawyers and nonlawyers alike.”—Leah Litman, professor of law, University of Michigan Law School “Worse Than Nothing is a devastating, concise, and beautifully written critique of originalism. It is a must read for anyone interested in the current debates about originalism and constitutional interpretation.”—Eric J. Segall, author of Originalism as Faith “Originalism mistakenly seeks to slavishly tie interpretation of our living Constitution to a single point in time. Nowhere is this mistake more forcefully and clearly explained than in this excellent new book by Erwin Chemerinsky.”—Martin H.

  • Palgrave Macmillan Theories of Federalism A Reader

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisThis project pulls together classic and modern readings and essays that explore theories of federalism. Spanning the Seventeenth through Twenty-first-centuries of European, U.S. and Canadian thinkers, this attempts to be a comprehensive reader for students in political theory. The emphasis throughout is on the normative argument, the advantages or disadvantages of federal and confederal arrangements compared to unitary states, and on the relative merits of various proposals to improve particular federations or confederations. These also draw on the full range of political science subfields: from political sociology, political economy and constitutional studies to comparative politics and international relations. There are also readings, both contemporary and historical, that attempt to clarify conceptual issues.Trade Review"Karmis and Norman have done a great service to all teachers and students of federalism. Here, finally, is a comprehensive collection of primary texts in the history of federalist thought. From Althusius to Kant, and from The Federalist Papers to Trudeau, the authors of these texts give compelling evidence that federalism is more than just a government technique, that it is in fact a political response to some of the most intractable problems and conflicts facing complex human societies. In addition to the well selected texts, the editors provide introductions with useful suggestions for further reading." - Dr. Thomas O. Hueglin, Wilfrid Laurier University "This Reader traces the intellectual evolution of Federalist ideas from the Renaissance era to the present day and takes us on an exciting journey through the ages, charting the normative steps in the federal discourse. I see this collection of essays essentially as a new handbook for undergraduate and postgraduate students wishing to explore the versatility of the federal idea. Reading through it was tantamount to an insight into the adventures of the federal idea that furnished much food for thought and intellectual stimulation." - Michael Burgess, University of KentTable of ContentsThe Birth of Federal Theory: an Alternative Political Language in the Early Era of Centralized States The Enlightenment Debate Over the Normative Potential of International Federalism The American 'Invention' and Nineteenth-century Debates Over Rival Types of Federalism The mid-Twentieth-Century Debate: Federalism Between Obsolescence and Panacea The Contemporary Debates: Federal Citizenship in Culturally Diverse Democracies
