Quaternary Climate Dynamics

The purpose of this book is to explore the major conceptual differences between classical and modern political philosophy and to understand how these differences have yielded competing conceptions of justice. If ancient and modern thinkers used a different set of constructs, definitions, and methods to explain justice, then it is our duty to understand them. It is also our duty to understand why they have such differences. 
Modern thinkers, beginning with Thomas Hobbes, developed a thought experiment-the state of nature-that allowed them to redefine well-established political terms (nature, happiness, virtue, equality, freedom) to determine what people were like in the absence of any external authority, that is, a state. The argument was so compelling that their adherents applied this logic to determine what they deemed legitimate forms of government. In doing so, they made classical articulations of justice appear irrelevant. 
This shift-a seismic move away from more than 1,500 years of political philosophy, validated the new approach and called into question the approach of classical theorists. As a result, we now inhabit a world that sees little political significance in the work of the ancients. The classical theory of Plato and Aristotle appears too subjective. It seems too ideological and at times mystical. Such a momentous shift in thinking has resulted in a change in the way citizens see themselves in relation to the state and more importantly, toward each other.

A Stranger's Notes on a Contrary Country

Fantastic Kingdom

When in July 2024 the incoming Labour Government announced as one of its priorities to stop hereditary peers sitting and voting in the House of Lords, Unicorn's Chairman and backbench hereditary peer Lord Strathcarron decided to write about the political machinations involved in the Government trying to abolish him on the one hand, and the Opposition trying to foil abolition on the other. The result is an insider's guide to the workings of the Parliamentary process, with direct access to the movers and shakers involved, and a not always entirely complimentary commentary on the key players involved.

How Climate Change is Changing Sport – A GUARDIAN SPORTS BOOK OF THE YEAR

Warming Up

Countries across the world are facing issues such as poverty, climate change, population ageing, issues related to immigration, migration, COVID-19 and intergenerational historic trauma, mental illness and rising income inequality. The established world order and global dominance of the Western-centric development agenda and modernity and the unequal distribution of world’s resources have created tremendous problems for many people living in global as well as local communities, both in developed and developing countries.&nbsp;
<div>
This major reference work handbook discusses global social problems across social, political, economic and geographical boundaries.&nbsp;By bringing together contributions that approach social problems at different levels of society (local, regional, national, transnational, or at the macro, meso and micro levels), it&nbsp;considers them as globally interconnected and mediated by new geopolitical and market logics.&nbsp;
</div>
<div>
This volume showcases new approaches to social problems, it is multidisciplinary in its approach and thematically organised.&nbsp;
