Boldt explores the concept of ‘the good society’ as a world in which every  person can realize their potential for humanity through liberty, social  justice, and equal human dignity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eA Quest for Humanity\u003c\/em\u003e innovatively  positions globalization as a deterministic phenomenon of expanding  interdependence and shared knowledge — resulting in ever-larger economic and  political jurisdictions, but also creating social and psychological links  between peoples across the world. Boldt challenges mainstream certainty that  Western democracy and constitutional human rights are the exemplary doctrines  for the global good society. With a fresh vision designed to inspire a  universal acknowledgement of human dignity, \u003cem\u003eA Quest for Humanity\u003c\/em\u003e powerfully affirms  the value of each human being.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAcknowledgments  Preface  Prologue    PART  ONE: THE NATURE OF GLOBALIZATION  1 A Theory of Globalization  2 The Reality of Globalization  3 Globalization and the United States  Summary  PART  TWO: SOCIAL ORDER IN THEORY AND PRACTICE  4 A Theory of Social Order  5 Social Order in the Modern Age  Summary  PART  THREE: SOCIAL ORDER IN THE GLOBAL AGE  6 Human Rights and the Global Good Society  7 Globalization and Social Order  Summary  PART  FOUR: SOCIAL ORDER AND THE GOOD SOCIETY  8 Social Order by Design  9 Global Moral Social Order  Summary  PART FIVE: MYTHS OF  REALITY  10  Scientific and Theological Myths of Reality  11  A Humane Myth of Reality  Summary  Epilogue  Bibliography  Index","brand":"University of Toronto Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49408349831511,"sku":"9781442612242","price":23.39,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781442612242.jpg?v=1730502546","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/a-quest-for-humanity-9781442612242","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
