Download or read book Back to Reform written by Charles J. Dougherty and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1996 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Back to Reform is a persuasive discussion of the moral values that spurred the movement for health care reform and that remain insistent today.

By examining the values at the heart of the need for health care reform, Dougherty displays the incompatibilities between these values and those related to the marketplace.

Book Plato   s Trial of Athens

    Book Details:
  • Author : Mark A. Ralkowski
  • Publisher : Bloomsbury Publishing
  • Release : 2018-11-29
  • ISBN : 1474227260
  • Pages : 248 pages

Download or read book Plato s Trial of Athens written by Mark A. Ralkowski and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2018-11-29 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What can we learn about the trial of Socrates from Plato's dialogues? Most scholars say we can learn a lot from the Apology, but not from the rest. Plato's Trial of Athens rejects this assumption and argues that Plato used several of his dialogues to turn the tables on Socrates' accusers: they blamed Socrates for something the city had done to itself. Plato wanted to set the record straight and save his city from repeating her worst mistakes of the 5th century. Plato's Trial of Athens addresses challenging questions about the historicity of Plato's dialogues, and it traces Plato's critique of Athenian public life and polis culture from the trial in 399 up through the Laws and the Atlantis myth in the Critias and Timaeus. In the end, Ralkowski shows that what began as a bitter response to the unjust, politically-charged trial of Socrates, evolved into a pessimistic reflection on the role of philosophy in a democratic society, a theory about Athens' 5th century decline, and cautionary tale about the corrupting influences of naval imperialism.

Book Those of Little Note

    Book Details:
  • Author : Elizabeth M. Scott
  • Publisher : University of Arizona Press
  • Release : 2022-07-12
  • ISBN : 0816550158
  • Pages : 234 pages

Download or read book Those of Little Note written by Elizabeth M. Scott and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2022-07-12 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Because some classes of people may not have been considered worthy of notice by dominant social groups in the past, they may be less visible to us today in historical and archaeological records; consequently, they remain less studied. This volume attempts to redress this oversight by presenting case studies of historical and archaeological research on various ethnic, racial, gender, and socioeconomic groups in colonial and post-colonial North America. These contributions illustrate how historical archaeologists and ethnohistorians have used documentary and archaeological evidence to retrieve information on neglected aspects of American history. They explore ways of making more visible Native Americans, African Americans, and Euro-Americans of differing ethnic groups and economic classes, and also shed new light on such groups as celibate religious communities, women in predominantly male communities, and working-class and middle-class women in urban communities. Material evidence on "those of little note" provides not only fresh insight into our understanding of daily life in the past, but also a refreshing counterpoint to the male- and Euro-centered analysis that has characterized much of historical archaeology since its inception. Readers will find many chapters rewarding in their application of sophisticated feminist theory to archaeological data, or in their probing of complex relational issues concerning the construction of gender identity and gender relationships. As the first archeaeologically-focused collection to examine the interconnectedness of gender, class, race, and ethnicity in past societies, Those of Little Note sets new standards for future research.

Book Xenophon  Ethical Principles and Historical Enquiry

Download or read book Xenophon Ethical Principles and Historical Enquiry written by Christopher Tuplin and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2012-08-28 with total page 803 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Xenophon’s personal history was exceptional for its combination of Socratic education and the exercise of military leadership in a time of crisis. His writings provide an intellectually and morally consistent response to his times and to the issue of ethical but effective leadership, and they play a special role in defining our sense of the post-Athenian-Empire Greek world. Recent Xenophontic scholarship has established the general truth of these claims. The current volume will not only reinforce them but also contribute to greater understanding of a voice that is neither simply ironic nor simply ingenuous and of a view of the world that is informed by an engagement with history.
