Book excerpt: Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2008 im Fachbereich Philosophie - Praktische (Ethik, Ästhetik, Kultur, Natur, Recht, ...), Note: 2,5, Otto-von-Guericke-Universität Magdeburg (Institut für Philosophie), Veranstaltung: Gleichheit und Gerechtigkeit, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Kaum einem anderen Werk wurde im englischsprachigen Raum so viel Bedeutung beigemessen wie der „Theory of Justice“, erschienen 1971, von John Rawls. Otfried Höffe spricht sogar in diesem Zusammenhang von dem wichtigsten Beitrag in der Philosophie des zwanzigsten Jahrhunderts. Rawls` Werk über die Gerechtigkeit sollte als Alternative zum Utilitarismus verstanden werden, um die sich die Philosophen des zwanzigsten Jahrhunderts bemüht hatten. Für Rawls stand die Problematik im Vordergrund, dass die politische Theorie, so wie sie existierte, sich zwischen 2 Extremen befände. Zum einen benannte Rawls den Utilitarismus und auf der anderen Seite den Intuitionismus , der für Rawls keine befriedigende Alternative zum Utilitarismus darstellte. Kritisch merkte Rawls an, dass der Intuitionismus keine Grundsätze beinhalte und dass diese Theorie nicht in die Praxis zu überführen wäre, da laut Rawls spezielle Vorschriften disharmonieren würden. Von diesem Standpunkt ausgehend war es das Anliegen von Rawls eine umfassende politische Theorie zu entwerfen, die die unterschiedlichen Intuitionen strukturiert. Im Mittelpunkt seiner Theorie steht seine Gerechtigkeitsvorstellung, die eine gleiche Verteilung aller sozialen Primärgüter vorsieht. Diese Gleichverteilung soll jedoch nicht alle Ungleichheiten beseitigen, sondern nur diejenigen, die jemanden benachteiligen. Auch Nozick , ein weiterer bedeutender Philosoph, befasste sich mit jener Gerechtigkeitsauffassung von Rawls und zeigte mit seinem Werk „Anarchy, State, Utopia“ auf, dass Rawls ́ Theorie nicht frei von Kritik und Problemstellungen zu betrachten sei. Um die Kritikpunkte kurz zu nennen, beschäftigt sich der vierte Punkt dieser Hausarbeit mit den Unstimmigkeiten, die sich innerhalb der Gerechtigkeitsvorstellung von Rawls nach Nozick ergeben. Nach dieser kritischen Auseinandersetzung mit Rawls ́ Gerechtigkeitsauffassung soll im Anschluss daran die Theorie der Gerechtigkeit im Hinblick auf das aktuelle Nichtraucherschutzgesetz am Beispiel Hessen näher betrachtet werden und es soll der Versuch unternommen werden die Raucherproblematik im Licht der Gerechtigkeitstheorie zu analysieren.

Download or read book Conversations with Zygmunt Bauman written by Zygmunt Bauman and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-05-31 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Zygmunt Bauman is one of the leading figures in contemporary social thought. His work ranges across issues of ethics, culture and politics. It never forgets that social thought ought to help men and women make sense of their lives and aspire towards something different. His books and essays always focus on the here and now: violence and moral indifference, globalization, consumerism, politics and individualization. They cast a sharp eye on the panaceas of ‘there is no alternative'; the embrace of community and the fads of the ‘counselling boom'; through which men and women are told that they can achieve biographical solutions to what are, in fact, systemic problems. In this new book, Zygmunt Bauman and Keith Tester engage in five accessible conversations that uncover and explore the assumptions and commitments underpinning Bauman's ground-breaking social thought. The conversations show how those commitments have influenced Bauman's analyses of modernity, postmodernity and ‘liquid modernity'. The book ranges widely, from autobiographical reflection through to pointers for the understanding and future of Bauman's social thought. The conversations illustrate the moral substance of Bauman's refusal to accept that the world cannot be made different. They show why social thought is a human necessity. Conversations with Zygmunt Bauman is a book which will offer fresh insight into Bauman's work for those who are familiar with it, and provide an engaging and helpful entry point for those who are new to it.

Download or read book Freedom written by Zygmunt Bauman and published by U of Minnesota Press. This book was released on 1988 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bauman (sociology, U. of Leeds) analyzes freedom as a social relation rather than as an idea or postulate. Throughout history, he shows, freedom was a privilege enjoyed in relation to either superior or weaker power. Today, "seduction" tends to replace repression as a means of social control, and individual freedom is, above all, freedom of the consumer. A paper edition is available ($10.95; 1757-0).

Download or read book Socialism the Active Utopia Routledge Revivals written by Zygmunt Bauman and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2009-11-18 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rather than contributing to the long-standing discussion about the characteristics of the society that socialism proposes to establish, this Routledge Revival, initially published in 1976, aims to explore the impact of the ‘living utopia’ of socialism on the development of modern society. It begins with an analysis of the role of utopia in general, and of the socialist utopia in particular; Bauman considers the opposition between ‘utopian’ and ‘scientific’ social thought; He presents socialism as the ‘counter-culture’ of capitalist society; The book finally examines the reasons for the failure of socialism in its application to the peasant revolution in Russia. It then explores some possible forms that the socialist utopia might take in the industrial societies of the late twentieth century. Professor Bauman writes for those who want to understand the logic of the historical fate of socialism in the present century, who are concerned about the validity and vitality of socialist ideas on the development of modern society, and who are interested, and perhaps confused, by the cultural and ideological conflicts of the last few decades.
Download or read book Mortality Immortality and Other Life Strategies written by Zygmunt Bauman and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-05-08 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Zygmunt Bauman's new book is a brilliant exploration, from a sociological point of view, of the 'taboo' subject in modern societies: death and dying. The book develops a new theory of the ways in which human mortality is reacted to, and dealt with, in social institutions and culture. The hypothesis explored in the book is that the necessity of human beings to live with the constant awareness of death accounts for crucial aspects of the social organization of all known societies. Two different 'life strategies' are distinguished in respect of reactions to mortality. One, 'the modern strategy', deconstructs mortality by translating the insoluble issue of death into many specific problems of health and disease which are 'soluble in principle'. The 'post-modern strategy' is one of deconstructing immortality: life is transformed into a constant rehearsal of 'reversible death', a substitution of 'temporary disappearance' for the irrevocable termination of life. This profound and provocative book will appeal to a wide audience. It will also be of particular interest to students and professionals in the areas of sociology, anthropology, theology and philosophy.

Download or read book For a Song written by Rodney Morales and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 2016-09-30 with total page 505 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Set in Honolulu during the late spring of 2007, Rodney Morales’s For a Song melds actual events into an edgy detective novel that evokes contemporary Hawai`i as a place where the hauntingly beautiful and the hauntingly tragic too often intersect. Against a backdrop of political scandal and police corruption, the richly complex plot is driven by true-to-life characters and crisp dialogue. David “Kawika” Apana is a reporter turned private detective who has hit rock bottom. Divorced and broke, his career is revived when he hits it big in a game of high stakes poker and trades in his winnings for a boat, which becomes his new home and office. His first client is a vivacious middle-aged blonde, Minerva Alter, who hires him to find her missing daughter, Caroline “Kay” Johnson, an activist and budding filmmaker. Apana is startled to learn that Minerva was once married to Lino Johnson, a petty criminal brazenly gunned down in Honolulu’s Chinatown eighteen years earlier—an unsolved murder he had covered during his reporter days. In his investigation, Apana encounters a curious mix of cops, Federal agents, politicians, union officials, ragtag criminals, whistleblowers, stage actors, screen directors, triathletes, as well as Kay’s also-missing boyfriend, lawyer turned lifeguard Matthew Serrano. Apana’s pursuit of leads takes him all over O`ahu: from the metro downtown area, to the Windward and Leeward coasts, to the fabled North Shore, and to places far beyond. It also takes him back in years as he revisits the Lino Johnson murder and discovers how much he had missed the first time around.
