Download or read book Principles of Social Justice written by David Miller and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2001-09-30 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social justice has been the animating ideal of democratic governments throughout the twentieth century. Even those who oppose it recognize its potency. Yet the meaning of social justice remains obscure, and existing theories put forward by political philosophers to explain it have failed to capture the way people in general think about issues of social justice. This book develops a new theory. David Miller argues that principles of justice must be understood contextually, with each principle finding its natural home in a different form of human association. Because modern societies are complex, the theory of justice must be complex, too. The three primary components in Miller’s scheme are the principles of desert, need, and equality. The book uses empirical research to demonstrate the central role played by these principles in popular conceptions of justice. It then offers a close analysis of each concept, defending principles of desert and need against a range of critical attacks, and exploring instances when justice requires equal distribution and when it does not. Finally, it argues that social justice understood in this way remains a viable political ideal even in a world characterized by economic globalization and political multiculturalism. Accessibly written, and drawing upon the resources of both political philosophy and the social sciences, this book will appeal to readers with interest in public policy as well as to students of politics, philosophy, and sociology.

Download or read book Political Argument Routledge Revivals written by Brian M. Barry and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2011 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since its publication in 1965, Brian Barry's seminal work has occupied an important role in the revival of Anglo-American political philosophy. A number of ideas and terms in it have become part of the standard vocabulary, such as the distinction between ""ideal-regarding"" and ""want-regarding"" principles and the division of principles into aggregative and distributive. The book provided the first precise analysis of the concept of political values having trade-off relations and its analysis of the notion of the public interest has also been significant.
Download or read book The Politics of the American Civil Liberties Union written by William A. Donohue and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-10-23 with total page 619 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a critical analysis of the history of the American Civil Liberties Union and at the same time the history of American liberalism in the twentieth century. It represents the first published account of the ACLU's record. Other works on the organization either dealt only with specific issues or have been simply journalistic accounts. Donohue provides the first systematic analysis by a social scientist.This book is directed at those interested in the history of American liberalism and, no less, the history of American conservatism, for ideological struggle within the United States touches directly on civil libertarian concerns. The work is especially significant for American constitutional lawyers, political scientists, and for those concerned with serious ideas in American life. Supporters as well as critics of the ACLU will be attracted to this work for different reasons. It is unquestionably the most serious work now available and is likely to remain the touchstone for any such work for many years to come.

Download or read book Process Philosophy and Political Ideology written by Randall C. Morris and published by SUNY Press. This book was released on 1991-01-22 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book fills a significant gap in current process scholarship by providing a detailed exposition of Whiteheads and Hartshornes social and political writings, reconstructing their ideological commitments in depth, and placing them in their historical context. It focuses on four areas of inquiry: the individual and society; the ideals of freedom, equality, and democracy; the use of coercive force within and between societies; and the theory of social progress. As each feature of their political though is examined, Morris shows how Whiteheads and Hartshornes political commitments are reflected in their metaphysical principles.
Download or read book The Third Way written by Alison Holmes and published by Troubador Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2009 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Third Way was a phenomenon of the early-mid nineties and was considered to be at the heart of the New Labour strategy that brought the Party to power in 1997. As the Party's popularity begins to wane - albeit after three historical victories - several questions can now be asked: What was the Third Way and where did it come from in terms of its wider historical context? How did it develop as both a political ideology and an electoral strategy? Perhaps more importantly - where did it go and what are the current prospects for any progressive political movement?
Download or read book Law Legislation and Liberty Volume 19 written by F.A. Hayek and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2022-01-24 with total page 612 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new edition of F. A. Hayek’s three-part opus Law, Legislation, and Liberty, collated in a single volume In this critical entry in the University of Chicago’s Collected Works of F. A. Hayek series, political philosopher Jeremy Shearmur collates Hayek’s three-part study of law and liberty and places Hayek’s writings in careful historical context. Incisive and unrestrained, Law, Legislation, and Liberty is Hayek at his late-life best, making it essential reading for understanding the philosopher’s politics and worldview. These three volumes constitute a scaling up of the framework offered in Hayek’s famed The Road to Serfdom. Volume 1, Rules and Order, espouses the virtues of classical liberalism; Volume 2, The Mirage of Social Justice, examines the societal forces that undermine liberalism and, with it, liberalism’s capacity to induce “spontaneous order”; and Volume 3, The Political Order of a Free People, proposes alternatives and interventions against emerging anti-liberal movements, including a rule of law that resides in stasis with personal freedom. Shearmur’s treatment of this challenging work—including an immersive new introduction, a conversion of Hayek’s copious endnotes to footnotes, corrections to Hayek’s references and quotations, and the provision of translations to material that Hayek cited only in languages other than English—lends it new importance and accessibility. Rendered anew for the next generations of scholars, this revision of Hayek’s Law, Legislation, and Liberty is sure to become the standard.

Hobson are contrasted with centrist-liberal ideas.
