Download or read book Reason Democracy Society written by Sebastián Urbina and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reason, Democracy, Society deals with basic points of legal theory and philosophy of law. The main contention of the book relates to the insufficiencies of the legal positivistic approach. Some of its claims are that we must sharply separate what the law is from, what the law ought to be, and that we can know what the law is without appealing to meta-legal considerations. These and other claims are criticized. The author shows that with the legal positivistic approach we cannot know, in all cases, what the law is, if that is equated to the rules posited by the legislator. He also challenges H.L.A. Hart's and MacCormick's points of view, amongst others, about the characteristic corner stones of legal positivism. Some other issues relate to human rights, legal rationality and efficiency and ethics. This book will be of interest to philosophers concerned with law or ethics, those concerned with justice in modern society and to jurists and law students.

Download or read book Global Administrative Law and EU Administrative Law written by Edoardo Chiti and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-07-03 with total page 413 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book seeks to enrich and refine global administrative law and EU administrative law analytical tools by examining their manifold relations. Its aim is to begin to explore the complex reality of the interactions between EU administrative law and global administrative law, to provide a preliminary map of such legal and institutional reality, and to review it. The book is the first attempt to analyze a dense area of new legal issues. The first part of the book contains core elements of a general theory of the relationships between global and EU administrative law: comparative inquiries, exchanges of legal principles, and developing linkages. The second part is devoted to special regulatory regimes, in which global and European law coexist, though not always peacefully. Several sectors are considered: cultural heritage, medicines, climate change, antitrust, accounting and auditing, banking supervision, and public procurement.
Download or read book Mapeo de conflictos written by Raúl Calvo Soler and published by Editorial GEDISA. This book was released on 2015-03-15 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En los últimos años hemos asistido a una ampliación de los conflictos; las aulas, los hospitales, la familia, el trabajo, la comunidad, entre otros, se han convertido en espacios donde, con asiduidad, aparecen este tipo de relaciones. Además esta diversificación ha venido acompañada de un aumento de la complejidad de los conflictos; cada vez resulta más difícil entender cómo se constituyen y desarrollan estos. Este libro presenta una propuesta de análisis; el Mapeo de conflictos. Se trata de mostrar al profesional una técnica que le permita, por un lado, diagnosticar cómo está construido el conflicto y, por el otro lado, establecer los posibles escenarios futuros en los que puede derivar la relación conflictual. La necesidad de procesos de exploración como un paso previo al diseño de estrategias de intervención queda puesta de manifiesto a lo largo de las páginas de este libro. El autor presenta, junto con una gran diversidad de ejemplos, un proceso de aplicación de la técnica a través del desarrollo de un único caso que es usado de manera transversal a lo largo de los diferentes capítulos.

Download or read book Ciencias y sociedad written by Vinck, Dominique and published by Editorial GEDISA. This book was released on 2015-06-15 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Las ciencias y las técnicas han formado parte, desde el principio de la civilización, del desarrollo de la sociedad. Los cambios que han caracterizado las diferentes etapas del pensamiento científico se han producido dentro del marco de determinadas formaciones sociales y en condiciones específicas de producción del conocimiento. En este libro se aborda la manera en que se relacionan ciencia y sociedad: las formas de valorización social de las investigaciones, el sistema de trabajo en el interior de los laboratorios, las razones ideológicas de las teorías científicas, los mecanismos de financiación de la indagaciones científicas, las luchas jerárquicas entre los sabios y académicos, etc. Un conjunto de problemas que están más que nunca implicados en nuestros grandes problemas sociales. La explosión de las nanotecnologías, la controversia sobre los OGM, el cambio climático, etc., tantas temáticas cuya comprensión y control implican también conocer mejor las dinámicas sociales que forman parte de la producción de conocimientos y de las innovaciones. La presente obra, refundición de Sociología de las ciencias, publicada en 1995, muestra un planteamiento completo de todos estos problemas, con numerosos ejemplos y una muy amplia documentación. Presenta las diferentes formas de articulación ciencia/sociedad (emergencia de las ciencias, dinámica de innovación y democracia técnica) y los principales mecanismos sociales que hacen vivir a las ciencias (instituciones, organizaciones, intercambios entre investigadores, elaboración de contenidos, etc.). Este libro permite aprehender tanto la cultura material y cognitiva de un laboratorio como el funcionamiento del mercado de empleo científico. Más allá de la referencia a los grandes autores, corrientes de pensamiento y debates, ayuda a comprender mejor qué la sociedad y aquellas personas que tiene el poder decisorio fuerzan el desarrollo de las ciencias y de las técnicas, y qué los artesanos de estas últimas imponen a cambio sus lógicas propias. Habla así sobre la sociología de "la sociedad de los conocimientos”.
