Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The list of contributors is impressive withnot a single dull chapter...; the editors are to be congratulated for making available such a stimulating and timely, if not timeless, collection" - Slavic Review "[T]his is a book that will serve many intellectual tastes and interests, and that will certainly prove thought provoking for anyone who reads it... I recommend it to anybody who wants to witness the analythical depth and span with which the meaning of 1989 can be approached." - Extremism & Democracy The tenth anniversary of the collapse of communism in Central and Eastern Europe provides the starting point for this thought-provoking analysis. Between Past and Future reflects upon the past ten years and considers what lies ahead for the future. An international group of distinguished academics and public intellectuals, including former dissidents and active politicians, engage in a lively exchange on the antecedents, causes, contexts, meanings and legacies of the 1989 revolutions. At a crossroads between past and future, the contributors to this seminal volume address all the crucial issues -- liberal democracy and its enemies, modernity and discontent, economic reforms and their social impact, ethnicity, nationalism and religion, geopolitics, electoral systems and political power, European integration and the tragic demise of Yugoslavia. Based on the results of recent research on the ideologies behind one of the most dramatic systematic transformations in world history, and including contributions from some of the world's leading experts, Between Past and Future is an essential reference book for scholars and students of all levels, policy-makers, journalists and the general reader interested in the past and future prospects of Central & Eastern Europe

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A trenchant critique of established ideas in political philosophy and a provocative call for change Many contemporary political thinkers are gripped by the belief that their task is to develop an ideal theory of rights or justice for guiding and judging political actions. But in Philosophy and Real Politics, Raymond Geuss argues that philosophers should first try to understand why real political actors behave as they actually do. Far from being applied ethics, politics is a skill that allows people to survive and pursue their goals. To understand politics is to understand the powers, motives, and concepts that people have and that shape how they deal with the problems they face in their particular historical situations. Philosophy and Real Politics both outlines a historically oriented, realistic political philosophy and criticizes liberal political philosophies based on abstract conceptions of rights and justice.

Book excerpt: Abstract: Various theories in international relations offer multiple models of explanation of relations between states, but most of them are based on the idea that states act in accordance with their national interests. In fact, in its essence state interests include the need to maintain security, sovereignty and the development of the economy. Classical realists such as: Thucydides, Machiavelli, Hobbes and Rousseau, see at the conflict as a natural state in international relations, not as a consequence that can be attributed to historical circumstances, wicked leaders, disturbed socio-political systems, or international disagreements. The basis of the theory of idealists such as: Grotius, Kant and Bentham are the denial of the right to war, because they consider it is possible to establish an authority capable of maintaining peace. From the perspective of the idealists, wars are caused by egoistic interests of state leaders at the expense of the interests of the citizens

Book excerpt: The "new" idealism," which Miss Sinclair discusses, is not the kind which centers around high ideals and disregards sordid practicalities. It is not moral idealism, in short, but metaphysical idealism, which concerns her. We have here not the May Sinclair of Mary Olivier or The Romantic, but the author of A Defence of Idealism, who, after continued reflection, felt that she had to amend that earlier work.Her aim, in the present work, is to consider critically the foundations of realism, to inquire into the inroads it has made upon the old idealism, and to formulate a renovated idealism that will withstand the attacks of the old, but reinvigorated, arch enemy. For Miss Sinclair is convinced that the old idealism of Berkeley, Kant and Hegel must give way to a philosophy that will take into account seriously the world of space and time which is coming into our ever-widening view.One can hardly say that the book disposes of the controversies which have engaged the attention of philosophers in the past, or that there is a great percentage of novelty in her "new idealism." She does help the reader to understand the bases of these conflicts, however, and shows that concessions must be made upon both sides.It will probably be somewhat disconcerting to the intellectual old guard to encounter a lady philosopher who deals with many abstruse metaphysical problems with what is usually considered a masculine penetration and vigor. Miss Sinclair has proved that it is not impossible for the feminine mind to explore the higher ranges of thought where the air is cold and thin.She writes with ingratiating candor and has a pleasing sympathy with opposing ideas. One of the statements in her introduction is especially noteworthy. "If I betray ignorance of many contemporary idealists, it is because for years I was satisfied with Kant and Hegel relieved by Schopenhauer and Mr. Bradley, and because, lately, my chief interest has been in seeing what can be said against idealism. It is the realists who have made me look to its defences and who have most helped to show me the possible lines of reconstruction." This might well furnish the text for a homily on the value, in considering any problem, of inspecting the enemy's position as well as one's own -- a principle which one fears was not always a forceful guide to Leibnitz, Hegel, el al.There is a certain keenness and pungency in Miss Sinclair's style that sticks out here and there. The work is systematic and orderly. The author knows fairly well what she wants to say and says it -- an achievement that is often conspicuously absent in books these days. Incorrigible realists, of course, will not accept the thing, but it is, nevertheless, a learned treatise on the fundamental problem in philosophy and should be recommended to all students of Messrs. Immanuel Kant, William James and Bertrand Russell. -- The Standard, Volumes 9
