Authors V: Angelaki

August, Vol. 10.2

In some cases in the US, offenders have been made to take anti-psychotic drugs in order to restore competence to stand trial, or even to receive punishment. If such neurointerventions can change a person's behaviour can they be used to treat and more controversially, predict and prevent crime? Once a fantasy portrayed in films such as Minority Report such questions are fast-becoming fundamental ones for policy, law and ethics. This is the first book to introduce and explain the fundamental concepts, problems and debates around neuroscience, ethics and crime. After a helpful introduction the authors examine the following topics:<ul> <li>Criminal justice, harm and the problem of punishment: why punish? </li> <li>Cognitive and behavioural neuroscience: a short introduction</li> <li>Reading minds: can brain scans replace lie detector tests and predict reoffending?</li> <li>Neuroscientific assessments of competency </li> <li>Compulsory neurointerventions: can changing the brain be used to increase empathy and reduce violent urges?</li> <li>Voluntary neurointervention: is it wrong to administer neurointerventions even if the offender agrees to receive the neurointervention?</li> <li>Neuroscience, free will and moral responsibility</li> <li>Broader issues in criminal justice, including the justification of criminal punishment and the role of moral intuitions in decision-making.</li> </ul>Additional features, such as chapter summaries, annotated further reading and a glossary make this an excellent resource for students of philosophy and those in related disciplines such as philosophy, criminology, law and criminal justice.

Volume&nbsp;6 contains a selection of material exhibiting many of Hilbert's philosophical and foundational views on particular theories and the exact sciences in general, drawn from his private notebooks and from lectures for more general audiences held in the 1920s.

Written in an engaging style for undergraduate students and general readers, Environmental Justice as Environmental Ethics: An Introduction is a new kind of primer to the study of moral problems and the natural world. It takes as its starting point the increasing awareness among researchers, activists, and others that the key ethical issues related to the use of the environment are questions of justice. It then provides a framework for systematically understanding environmental justice, exploring sustainable development, consumption, the distribution of natural resources, environmental racism, ecofeminism, and the anti-toxic movement, among other issues. The book reaches beyond the usual concerns of moral theory to engage with environmental issues where most readers find them on the ground. The result is a new kind of introduction to environmental ethics—foregrounding the importance of environmental justice and engaging students by illuminating those topics they find the most compelling, important, and relevant to their daily lives. Included in the text are teaching tools, like short descriptions of longer arguments discussed elsewhere, tips for detecting problematic reasoning, questions at the end of each chapter, and a bibliography of prominent and useful literature. A Companion Website provides links to key documents, important interviews, and videos that illuminate key parts of the book

A New Introduction

Environmental Justice as Environmental Ethics

This book analyses the tendency in international law scholarship and criticism to seek a ‘new’ international law. Drawing and building on scholarship around the political significance of theological ideas, it argues that underlying this tendency is a relationship between international law and messianic thinking. Demonstrating that messianism has been, and continues to be, a telling quality of much international legal thought, the book also traces its broader implications; particularly with regard to the use of violence and the perpetuation of global inequalities. The temptation to project onto international law the hoped-for realisation of a new world obscures both the failures of international law and a proper appreciation what it can achieve. As such, international law, it is argued, must be radically reconceived if it is to avoid the traps of determinism and the false universalism inherent within the dominant form of messianism in international law.

Routledge Advances in Research Methods

This book argues that there is a need to rethink time in social research. It builds on the author's previous research, which has dealt with the methodological challenge of studying change and continuity in the social world from a complex systems perspective. The book:<ul> <li>sets out key empirical challenges of social time and temporality;</li> <li>problematizes time in key quantitative, qualitative and simulation social research methods;</li> <li>proposes some methodological alternatives that seek to tackle time and temporality empirically from innovative angles.</li> </ul>In so doing, the book aims to provoke a wider discussion about the need for methodological innovation about how social time and temporality are addressed in empirical social research.

Time and Method

Die Erwartungen Heideggers an den Nationalsozialismus wie seine Vorbehalte ihm gegenüber werden durch eine bloße textimmanente Interpretation seines Denkens nicht verständlich, aber auch nicht durch dessen bloße Rückführung auf die NS-Ideologie. Seine Intentionen und die "dunklen Stellen" in seinem Werk werden erst dann transparent, wenn die allgemeineren totalitären Elemente und fundamentalistischen Motivierungsabsichten freigelegt werden, von denen sie getragen sind. Heidegger hat sie mittels begrifflicher Formalisierungen, dislozierter Definitionen, flüchtiger Andeutungen und scheinbar nebensächlicher Verweise, ja sogar durch das Legen falscher Fährten larviert. Wird die penible Lektüre seiner Texte, privaten Briefe und nun auch der Schwarzen Hefte mit der archivalischen Erforschung seines tatsächlichen Bezugsfeldes verbunden, stellen sich überraschende neue Erkenntnisse ein. Zu ihnen gehören auch erste Belege dafür, daß Heidegger in verdeckter Weise Argumentationen mediokrer deutsch-völkischer Autoren von früh an in sein System integrierte.

Routledge New Religions

George Ivanovitch Gurdjieff (c.1866-1949) is acknowledged as one of the most influential early teachers of a hybridised Eastern-Western esoteric spiritual tradition, and one of a few key influences on the contemporary New Age Movement and a myriad other alternative spiritualities and new religions.   Positioning Gurdjieff's teachings within the field of New Religious Movements, this book examines the 'Work' (as Gurdjieff's system is commonly called), including his teachings presented in writings, music, and exercises known as 'Movements'. This critical introduction to the Gurdjieff tradition also provides an analysis of problems with unreliable sources and auto-mythology, examines major pupils and successors, and shows how the 'Work' functions in the contemporary spiritual marketplace. Offering an excellent introduction to anyone unfamiliar with Gurdjieff and his context, this book also provides further depth for scholars and an invaluable companion to literature examining Blavatsky, Steiner, Theosophy, and Anthroposophy.

Global Ethics

How have the major philosophical traditions addressed global gender issues? How do gendered power dynamics privilege some voices over others? How do states and other political actors respond to major global gender issues? What is the position of transgender persons in world politics? How do gender norms and power dynamics shape the ways in which the global economy produces or reinforces socio-economic inequities? What role do gender norms play in the context of war and conflict? How do gender norms influence international human rights laws?Global Gender: Ethical and Political Issues provides readers with the analytical tools to better understand the suppositions that underlie the debates about such questions, as well as advances its own reasoned and informed ethical analyses of these topics. The book engages different normative approaches from the fields of ethics, political theory, sociology and international relations and uses them to examine a set of international case studies on the subjects of human trafficking, female infanticide and the role of gender in war and conflict.
