New Studies in Christian Ethics

Duckett Stephen: Healthcare Funding and
Christian Ethics

Healthcare Funding and Christian Ethics

In this book, Adrian Thatcher offers fresh theological arguments for expanding our understanding of gender. He begins by describing the various meanings of gender and depicts the relations between women and men as a pervasive human and global problem. Thatcher then critiques naive and harmful theological accounts of sexuality and gender as binary opposites or mistaken identities. Demonstrating that the gendered theologies of Hans Urs von Balthasar and Karl Barth, as well as the Vatican's "war on gender" rest on questionable binary models, he replaces these models with a human continuum that allows for sexual difference without assuming "opposite sexes" and normative sexualities.&nbsp; Grounded in core Christian doctrines, this continuum enables a full theological affirmation of LGBTIQ people. Thatcher also addresses the excesses of the male/female binary in secular culture and outlines a hermeneutic that delivers justice and acceptance instead of sexism and discrimination.&nbsp;

Gender and Christian Ethics

Interaction between Accounting and Taxation

Business & Money

The 'fresh start' that is afforded individual debtors through the discharge doctrines of American bankruptcy law has, to date, defied justification by a single normative principle or theoretical paradigm. The justificatory accounts that have been advanced either fail to explain core doctrines that have long defined the right of discharge or invite theoretical challenges that suggest that their descriptive virtues are swamped by their normative or conceptual shortcomings. This book presents a taxonomy of traditional justifications of bankruptcy and subjects them to critical evaluation. It then seeks to offer a new justification of bankruptcy's 'fresh start' doctrines-one that takes its inspiration from a quite different moral tradition than those that have informed past efforts to justify and explain our enduring societal willingness to release people from onerous financial obligations. The book argues that personal debt relief is fully vindicated not by a utilitarian theory, nor by a distributive justice theory, nor by a retributive theory, nor by any other rights- or duties-based theory that is preoccupied with moral claims that particular creditors or debtors might proffer. Rather, the long-standing institution of discharge in bankruptcy is best explained by an aretaic, or virtue-based, theory that concerns itself with the obligations that the rest of us have to be charitable towards those who are unable to repay their debts. The fresh start that bankruptcy gives to those who have been shackled by overwhelming debt is justified not by its effects on creditors, debtors, or future market actors, but by its satisfaction of the demands of individual charity to which all citizens are subject. Bankruptcy's discharge of the debts of those who have become financially desperate is best thought to be an institution that aggregates others' demands of good character so as to permit citizens for whom debt-forgiveness is a personal virtue to live in a society that fulfils that virtue.

Applications of Public Choice Theory to Public Policy

A Beginner-Friendly Introduction to Stocks, ETFs, Bonds, and Long-Term Investing Basics

Inspired by the philosophy of Emmanuel Levinas, this book shows that for justice to be realised law must be understood to originate in transcendence rather than in violence, conflict and the sacred - prevalent themes in philosophies of law and the political.To this end, the book takes up the case of 'scapegoating': evident in Carl Schmitt's influential theory of the 'friend-enemy' dichotomy as the essence of the political, and here considered as a paradigm of injustice. After considering positivist approaches to the law, as well as a case study that considers the question of what it would mean for Aboriginal people to be treated justly, the book shows that pragmatic, positivist and immanent approaches to the law and the scapegoat cannot deal with 'bad' law and cannot provide an insight into the nature of justice as 'good' law. The book then draws further on Levinas to demonstrate the necessity of law's foundation, not in immanence, as is widely presupposed, but rather in transcendence.Law and Transcendence will appeal to scholars in law, philosophy and political theory and especially to those with interests in sovereignty and power.

The Question of Justice

Law and Transcendence

This book presents an integrated framework for understanding macroeconomics by linking economic theory, policy analysis, and real-world practice within a unified analytical structure. It examines how aggregate output, employment, inflation, and growth emerge from the interaction of households, firms, markets, and institutions, with particular attention to the microeconomic foundations that shape macroeconomic outcomes. Core topics include macroeconomic measurement, labor and capital markets, expectations, fiscal and monetary policy, and the conditions under which economic systems function efficiently or experience prolonged periods of underperformance. The book is intended for students, academics, and readers with an interest in economics who seek a rigorous yet structured treatment of macroeconomic analysis beyond introductory surveys. It adopts a theoretical and analytical approach, supported by formal reasoning, graphical analysis, and selected mathematical tools, while emphasizing the integration of classical and non-classical perspectives to clarify policy choices in both short-run stabilization and long-run economic performance.

Gesundheit, Kommunikation und Gesellschaft

Die Public Health Humanities verstehen Gesundheit und Krankheit als kulturell und sozial geprägte Phänomene. Sie ergänzen die empirisch orientierte Multidisziplin Public Health um geisteswissenschaftliche und künstlerische Perspektiven. Dabei fragen sie nach der Bedeutung des Künstlerischen für die Gesundheit, interessieren sich für moralische, soziale und kulturelle Dimensionen von Gesundheit und Krankheit in Kunst bzw. Medien und bieten theoretische Zugänge für gesundheitliche Analysen an. Bezugsdisziplinen sind u.a. Kunst-, Kultur- und Medienwissenschaften, Philosophie und Geschichte. Die Beiträger*innen leuchten das Spektrum unterschiedlicher Perspektiven und Zugänge der Public Health Humanities erstmals auf Deutsch aus.
