Book Political Philosophy and Cultural Renewal

Download or read book Political Philosophy and Cultural Renewal written by Francis Wilson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-01-22 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Francis Graham Wilson was a central figure in the revival of interest in political philosophy and American political thought in the mid-twentieth century. While he is best known as a Catholic writer and conservative theorist, his most significant contribution is his original interpretation of the development of American politics. Central to his thought was a process of self-interpretation by the citizenry, a quest for ultimate meaning turning to a divine, transcendent, basis of history and shared experience. Although Wilson's writings were extensive and influential, they have not been readily available for decades.

Book The Routledge Handbook of Non Ideal Theory

Download or read book The Routledge Handbook of Non Ideal Theory written by Hilkje C. Hänel and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-10-15 with total page 723 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Made popular by John Rawls, ideal theory in political philosophy is concerned with putting preferences and interests to one side to achieve an impartial consensus and to arrive at a just society for all. In recent years, ideal theory has drawn increasing criticism for its idealised picture of political philosophy and its inability to account for the challenges posed by inequalities of, for example, race, gender, and class and by structural injustices stemming from colonialism and imperialism. The Routledge Handbook of Non-Ideal Theory is the first handbook or reference source on this important and fast-growing debate. Comprised of 34 chapters by an international team of contributors, the Handbook is divided into three clear parts: Methodological Challenges Intersections Applied Issues and Contemporary Challenges Within these sections key topics are addressed including: the question of whether non-ideal theory is methodologically linked to ideal theory; its intersection with feminist philosophy, critical race theory, decolonial theory, and critical theory; its characteristic features; the role of the non-ideal theorist; its relation to activism; and its application in the context of disability and health studies, climate justice, global injustices, colonialism, and many more. As well as a comprehensive introduction which provides important background to the debate between ideal and non-ideal theory, the Handbook also features a contribution by the late philosopher Charles Mills on non-ideal theory as ideology. The Routledge Handbook of Non-Ideal Theory is essential reading for students and scholars of political philosophy, ethics, and political theory, and will also be of interest to those studying and researching related subjects such as gender, race, and social justice.

Book Legitimacy  the Chinese Communist Party and Confucius

Download or read book Legitimacy the Chinese Communist Party and Confucius written by Wai Kong Ng and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-12-23 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the use of Confucianism by the Chinese Communist Party in its assertion of political legitimacy. Confucian thought offers an enduring framework for political legitimacy in East Asian societies, including China. All states strive to acquire legitimacy, and despite once denouncing Confucianism as the remnants of feudal poison, the Party is turning towards Confucianism as part of its legitimation efforts. This suggests that the Party is suffering from an ideological void in terms of legitimacy and legitimation due to the diminishing relevance of Marxism in Chinese societal practices. The book will devise a non-liberal legitimacy framework, drawing on the ideas of Habermas and Bernard Williams, to examine the legitimacy of the Party, and use an analysis of the elite discourse to determine the nature of the Confucian turn, in a sharp polemic that will interest scholars of Chinese politics, of the role of traditional beliefs in Asian modernity, and in China's future.

Book Power  Legitimacy and the Public Sphere

Download or read book Power Legitimacy and the Public Sphere written by Amin Sharifi Isaloo and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2017-04-28 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A ground-breaking study of political transformations in non-Western societies, this book applies anthropological, sociological and political concepts to the recent history of Iran to explore the role played by a ritual theatrical performance (Ta’ziyeh) and its symbols on the construction of public mobilisations. With particular attention to three formative phases – the 1978–79 Islamic Revolution, the 1980–88 Iran–Iraq War, and the 2009 Green Movement – the author concentrates on the relations between symbols of the ritual performance and the public sphere to shed light on the ways in which the symbols of Ta’ziyeh were used to claim political legitimacy. Thus, the book elucidates how symbols and images of a ritual performance can be utilised by ‘tricksters’, such as political actors and fanatical religious leaders, to take advantage of the prolongation of a state of transition within a society, and so manipulate the public in order to mobilise crowds and movements to fulfil their own interests and concerns. An insightful analysis of political mobilisation explained in terms of a set of interrelated master concepts such as ‘liminality’, ‘trickster’ and ‘schismogenesis’, Power, Legitimacy and the Public Sphere integrates theoretical, empirical and ‘diagnostic’ perspectives in order to investigate and illustrate links between the public sphere and religious and cultural rituals. As such, it will appeal to scholars of sociology, politics and anthropology with interests in social theory, public mobilisations and political transformation.

Book The Role of Pedagogy in Shaping the Socio Political Reality of Society

Download or read book The Role of Pedagogy in Shaping the Socio Political Reality of Society written by Leon Miller and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2024-07-11 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of essays highlights education’s role as one of the cornerstone institutions of society, due to the role it plays in human, social, and sustainable development. Thus, this book explains various pedagogical and socio-political prescriptions for improving the conditions of society and, in addition, the human condition. The book emphasizes that the scope of educational activities necessarily includes the relationship between the school and society (i.e., in that the society plays a key role in the continued growth and development of its individual members). In this respect this edited book explains the role of pedagogy in realizing the goal that social action aims to achieve and realizing the highest good possible by means of organized social activity. The achievement of this good is the goal that human social action aims to achieve.
