This book was released on 2018-01-04 with total page 488 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Featuring contributions by distinguished scholars from ten countries, The Wiley Handbook of the History and Philosophy of Criminology provides students, scholars, and criminologists with a truly a global perspective on the theory and practice of criminology throughout the centuries and around the world. In addition to chapters devoted to the key ideas, thinkers, and moments in the intellectual and philosophical history of criminology, it features in-depth coverage of the organizational structure of criminology as an academic discipline world-wide. The first section focuses on key ideas that have shaped the field in the past, are shaping it in the present, and are likely to influence its evolution in the foreseeable future. Beginning with early precursors to criminology’s emergence as a unique discipline, the authors trace the evolution of the field, from the pioneering work of 17th century Italian jurist/philosopher, Cesare Beccaria, up through the latest sociological and biosocial trends. In the second section authors address the structure of criminology as an academic discipline in countries around the globe, including in North America, South America, Europe, East Asia, and Australia. With contributions by leading thinkers whose work has been instrumental in the development of criminology and emerging voices on the cutting edge The Wiley Handbook of the History and Philosophy of Criminology provides valuable insights in the latest research trends in the field world-wide - the ideal reference for criminologists as well as those studying in the field and related social science and humanities disciplines.

Download or read book The Main Paradigms of Cpontemporary Lithuanian Philosophy written by Augustinas Dainys and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2014-03-14 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Augustinas's Dainys's view, the orientation of fidelity to the presence, which is shown by philosophers working in the analytic, phenomenological and postmodern paradigms, may be recognized as the most representative of specifics of Lithuanian philosophy. In addition to the alternative of Greek and Jewish ways of thinking, discussed by Lithuanian philosophers over last decade, it is possible to distinguish the alternative of Lithuanian way of thinking and sensing. If the Greek alternative of philosophical thinking is expressed by curious and wondering mind and the Jewish alternative is expressed by orientation to interpersonal relationship, the alternative of Lithuanian way of thinking and sensing is expressed by the orientation to the presence.

Download or read book Religious Diversity in Post Soviet Society written by Ingo W Schröder and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2013-06-28 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the end of state repression against religion, two major processes have taken place in the formerly socialist countries: historically dominant churches strive to reassert their position in society, while new religious groups and ideas from various parts of the world are proliferating. This generates pluralism of religious communities and individual religious attitudes. Religious Diversity in Post-Soviet Society presents the first collection of ethnographies of this new religious diversity for Lithuania, a country that has a long history of a dominant Catholic Church. The authors reveal how Catholicism has become increasingly diversified and other religions (Charismatic Protestantism, Baltic Paganism, Eastern religions and other alternative spiritualities) are claiming their space in the religious field.

Download or read book Knowledge Transfer and the Early Modern University Statecraft and Philosophy at the Akademia Zamojska 1595 1627 written by Valentina Lepri and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2019-05-15 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Knowledge Transfer and the Early Modern University focuses on the teaching and cultural activities of the Akademia Zamojska, one of the most renowned universities of Central-Eastern Europe in the Early Modern Age. The Akademia Zamojska played its own part in the debate on the methodology of politics as a discipline, also offering an original contribution to the development of the concept of ‘political prudence’ which was to become so popular in the universities of Central Europe in this period. The institution embodied a largely successful attempt to knit up closer connections between the world of intellectual culture and that of political praxis.
