Plato's Reverent City

The Laws and the Politics of Authority

&lt;p&gt;Chapter 1. Reverence and the Politics of Authority.- Chapter 2. Plato’s Laws and the Enigma of Godlikeness.- Chapter 3. Classical Utopianism in Plato’s Laws.- Chapter 4. The Athenian’s Rehabilitation of Tragedy.- Chapter 5. Reverence and the Disunity of Political Virtue.- Chapter 6. Epilogue.&lt;/p&gt;

The first woman to serve as United Nations Special Rapporteur for the Occupied Palestinian Territory conveys the spirit of a people through 10 unforgettable stories of resilience and humanity. Francesca Albanese is the most lucid voice against Israel’s apartheid policies in Gaza and the West Bank, a voice that has been heard around the world when it comes to speaking the truth about the Palestinian genocide. In the wake of October 7, 2023, and Israel’s retaliatory war, the renowned Italian jurist has become a lightning rod for her staunch defense of human rights.&nbsp; Reflecting on her years living in Jerusalem and her personal and professional journey toward understanding the Palestinian struggle, Albanese pays tribute to 10 people whose profoundly affecting stories opened her eyes, from Hind Rajab, a young Palestinian girl killed by Israeli forces, to the remarkable Jewish scholars who acted as Albanese’s mentors: forensic architect Eyal Weizman, trauma expert Gabor Maté, and Holocaust historian Alon Confino. When the World Sleeps is a courageous testimony of the harsh reality that Palestinians face. It raises critical questions about the past, present, and future of Palestine: What are the consequences of the occupation? Where is a refugee’s home? In what conditions do Palestinians live?&nbsp;With the uncertain end of the war, will there be a Palestinian state? Will Palestinians have the right to self-determination, and will they be able to live in peace, free at last from the coercion of Israel?

Stories, Words, and Wounds of Palestine

When the World Sleeps

Global Political Sociology

Populism has fundamentally altered many aspects of world politics.&nbsp;As President Donald J. Trump’s&nbsp;recent threats to&nbsp;U.S. allies&nbsp;and his imposition of wide-ranging tariffs&nbsp;have made all too clear,&nbsp;“populist” leaders&nbsp;can have a&nbsp;major&nbsp;impact not just on domestic&nbsp;but also&nbsp;foreign&nbsp;policy. The first edition of Populism&nbsp;and Word Politics&nbsp;was the first book-length treatment of populism from an International Relations (IR) perspective.&nbsp;The second edition reflects the continuation and evolution of populism in world politics, and includes&nbsp;a new introduction,&nbsp;updated chapters and an additional&nbsp;contribution&nbsp;on populist security narratives. Written by leading experts in the field, the&nbsp;chapters in&nbsp;this volume&nbsp;explore&nbsp;the many&nbsp;ways populism and world politics intersect, including&nbsp;the importance of&nbsp;populist leadership&nbsp;and&nbsp;global media&nbsp;as well as&nbsp;populism’s impact on trade and the liberal international order. Presented in an accessible and clear style, this book is an essential resource for students and&nbsp;IR&nbsp;scholars,&nbsp;as well as&nbsp;practitioners seeking a deeper understanding&nbsp;of the phenomenon.

Öffentliche Verwaltung in Deutschland

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine seems to many like a throwback to another age, rattling Europe with memories of past horrors. But since the end of the Second World War there has not been a single day without armed conflict somewhere in the world. Drawing on the great political philosophers, from Plato to Marx, via Machiavelli and Hobbes, Frédéric Gros attempts to answer the age-old questions regarding humanity’s propensity to wage war: What is a just war? What moral constraints operate on the combatants? Does the state make war or does war make the state? Finally, after exploring the meaning and the spectre of total war, he tackles the ultimate question: Why war?

Why We Fight

A Philosophy of War

Springer-Lehrbuch

Der Larenz ist seit Jahren ein Klassiker unter den Lehrbüchern zur juristischen Methodenlehre. Um das Buch auch Studenten zugänglich zu machen, haben sich Autor und Verlag zur Publikation dieser gekürzten Studienausgabe des Buches aus der Enzyklopädie der Rechts- und Staatswissenschaften entschlossen. Neben der Aneignung von Kenntnissen in den einzelnen Rechtsgebieten und der praktischen Übung im Lösen von Fällen ist der Erwerb des methodischen Rüstzeugs für ein erfolgreiches Studium von besonderer Wichtigkeit. Dies gilt namentlich für die Auslegungslehre, die anhand zahlreicher Beispiele aus der höchstrichterlichen Rechtsprechung veranschaulicht wird. Der Autor, Claus-Wilhelm Canaris, hat das Buch im Geist seines Lehrers Karl Larenz fortgeführt und aktualisiert, teilweise aber auch eigene Akzente gesetzt.

Methodenlehre der Rechtswissenschaft

This book explores how both common law and civil law traditions have long devoted extensive attention to&nbsp;litigious facts—those directly related to the parties involved in a dispute. These facts have consistently been central to procedural theories, particularly the theory of evidence.
At the same time, it draws attention to another category of facts that remain largely unexamined by judges and lawyers. Especially in the context of constitutional review and binding precedents, there are facts that do not concern the litigants—or at least not exclusively. These are general facts, connected to social life and the functioning of the world, and they closely resemble&nbsp;legislative facts. Since law presupposes reality and social needs—facts that concern everyone—their presence in constitutional adjudication should not come as a surprise.
The volume&nbsp;introduces the concept of&nbsp;constitutional facts, which emerge when constitutional review moves beyond its normative roots and engages with the lived reality of society. Deciding based on constitutional facts carries a significant democratic dimension.
While the analysis&nbsp;acknowledges that constitutional decisions should remain open to institutional dialog, it also argues that deliberation should not be prematurely closed when constitutional facts—overlooked by the legislature or still under public debate—are brought before the judiciary through legal challenges.
Beyond theory, the work also addresses decision-making strategies that foster institutional dialog around these facts, offering a framework that supports more transparent and participatory constitutional adjudication.

Constitutional Facts?

An eye-opening account of how the data-center boom is pushing our planet past its breaking point Underlying our seamless access to AI, cryptocurrency, and unlimited cloud storage is a hulking, costly physical infrastructure. Massive data centers full of energy-hungry chips and processors power everything we do online. Scrambling to meet dubious market demand, the tech giants have made our planet a bargaining chip in the next great race for a market monopoly. In Hyperscale, journalist Paris Marx uncovers the excesses of hyperscale data processing. He exposes the deceptive, exploitative ways tech companies are syphoning energy and resources from vulnerable communities in their pursuit of digital power, abandoning the pretense of social responsibility. Amid energy shortages and tech-induced battles over drinking water, Marx makes a powerful case for technology that promotes the social good over the bottom lines of tech billionaires. He joins the incredible efforts of people and social movements pushing back against the profit-driven interests of Big Tech, illuminating a path toward the sustainable future we all deserve. The AI boom and its infrastructural demands have accelerated our many modern catastrophes. With razor-sharp reporting and incisive analysis, Marx shows us that the greatest threat is not the specter of AI overlords but a global environmental disaster already in the making.

America’s bestselling biographer reveals the origins of the most revolutionary sentence in the Declaration of Independence, the one that defines who we are as Americans—and explains how it should shape our politics today. “Isaacson uses a jeweler’s loupe to scan what gives his snappy little book its engaging title….Isaacson skillfully teases fresh pith and resonance out of those familiar words.” —The Wall Street Journal “A short, smart analysis of perhaps the most famous passage in American history reveals its potency and unfulfilled promise.” —Kirkus Reviews To celebrate America’s 250th anniversary, Walter Isaacson takes readers on a fascinating deep dive into the creation of one of history’s most powerful sentences: “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness.” Drafted by Thomas Jefferson and edited by Benjamin Franklin and John Adams, this line lays the foundation for the American Dream and defines the common ground we share as a nation. Isaacson unpacks its genius, word by word, illuminating the then-radical concepts behind it. Readers will gain a fresh appreciation for how it was drafted to inspire unity, equality, and the enduring promise of America. With clarity and insight, he reveals not just the power of these words but describes how, in these polarized times, we can use them to restore an appreciation for our common values.

The Greatest Sentence Ever Written

Das auf mehrere Bande angelegte Werk prasentiert nahezu das gesamte deutsche Verfassungsrecht des Zeitraumes zwischen 1806 und 1918. Hiermit wird der sich gleichsam schrittweise vollziehende Ubergang von einem traditionell standischen oder gar furstlich-absolutistischen zu einem zumeist monarchisch-konstitutionellen System aufgearbeitet, dessen jaher Untergang schlielich in die nationalstaatlich-republikanisch gepragte demokratisch-parlamentarische Staatsform Weimars mundet. Mit dem Gesamtwerk steht dem Fachpublikum eine leicht zugangliche, bislang nicht gekannte Fulle von Dokumenten zur Verfugung, die fur die verfassungsrechtliche Entwicklung Deutschlands und seiner einzelnen Staaten von zentraler Bedeutung waren. Dabei wird groer Wert auf die authentische, d. h. buchstaben- und zeichengetreue Ubernahme der Texte gelegt. Dem jeweiligen Dokumententeil sind in jedem Band "Historische Einfuhrungen" vorangestellt. In diesem Rahmen werden an den einschlagigen Dokumenten orientierte (verfassungs-) rechtliche, zeitlich wie territorial ubergreifende entwicklungsgeschichtliche Darstellungen vorgenommen. In dem hier vorliegenden 3. Band werden erstmals uber 450 Verfassungsdokumente prasentiert, welche fur die verfassungsstaatliche Entwicklung des Groherzogtums Berg und des Herzogtums Braunschweig pragend waren. Begleitet wird diese Textedition durch eine ausfuhrliche historische Einfuhrung.

Why socially responsible investment promises to make investors richer and the world better—but fails at both. Wall Street thrives by telling investors that clever financial strategies can reverse the trade-off between corporate profits and social progress. But the link between greater corporate social responsibility and improved financial performance is an illusion. Profit vs. Progress dissects the massive $30 trillion “socially responsible” or “sustainable” finance industry—and finds the emperor has no clothes. At best, sustainable investing typically delivers average rates of financial and social returns. But it makes social and environmental crises harder to overcome, by using financial gimmickry to distract our attention from real solutions. Author Brad Swanson argues that corporations in competitive markets act without moral values, and ethical investment can’t prod them to take greater social responsibility. The only way to change the outcome of the game is to change the rules. The solutions will have to come from legislatures, not corporate boardrooms. Swanson calls for public policies to make businesses better serve all of society, not just their shareholders—without blunting their edge. His recommendations include breaking up the cartel of large asset managers, rebuilding the influence of organized labor, curbing the rapacious behavior of the private equity industry, and eliminating the conflict of interest that pits corporate directors against the greater good of the community. The author shows that in previous eras of social crisis caused by corporate excess, meaningful reforms emerged through the political process. Today as well, the path forward is clear—if we have the will to follow it.

Profit vs. Progress

Exploring 500 years of protest and resistance in US history—and what the unsung heroes of social movements past can teach us about navigating our chaotic world In this timely new book in Beacon’s successful ReVisioning History series, professor Gloria Browne-Marshall delves into the history of protest movements and rebellion in the United States. Beginning with Indigenous peoples’ resistance to European colonization and continuing through to today’s climate change demonstrations, Browne-Marshall expands how to think about protest through sharing select historical moments and revealing the role of key players involved in those efforts. Drawing upon legal documents, archival material, government documents and secondary sources, A Protest History of the United States gives voice to those who pushed back against the mistreatment of others, themselves, and in some instances planet Earth. Browne-Marshall highlights stories of individuals from all walks of life, backgrounds, and time periods who helped bring strong attention to their causes. Those examples of protest include those of Wahunsenacock, more commonly known to history as Chief Powhatan, who took on English invaders in pre-colonial America in 1607; legendary boxer Muhammad Ali's refusal to fight in Vietnam and appealed all the way to the US Supreme Court; and David Buckel, LGBTQ+ rights lawyer and environmental activist who protested against fossil fuels by committing self-immolation in 2018. Regardless of whether these protests accomplished their end goals, Browne-Marshall reminds us that not only is dissent meaningful and impactful but is an essential tool for eliciting long lasting change.

The Arctic that emerged over the past forty years became one of the most innovative policy environments in the world. The region developed impressive systems for intra-regional cooperation, responded to the challenges of rapid environmental change, empowered and engaged with Indigenous peoples, and dealt with the multiple challenges of natural resource development. The second edition of The Palgrave Handbook on Arctic Policy and Politics draws on scholars from many countries and academic disciplines to focus on the central theme of Arctic policy innovation and political action. The portrait that emerges from these chapters is of a complex, fluid policy environment, shaped by internal, national and global dynamics and by a wide range of political, legal, economic, and social transitions. In this second edition, all chapters have been revised, updating the volume with the latest research and analysis especially on the changing geo-political situation since the Russian invasion of Ukraine and the election of Donald Trump. New chapters explore post-secondary education and the future of work in the Circumpolar North.

The Arctic is a complex political place and is on the verge of becoming even more so due to Russian militarism, increasing Chinese engagement and the cascading effects of rapid climate change. Effective, proactive and forward-looking policy innovation will be required if the Far North is to address its challenges and capitalize on its opportunities. The Arctic has become, ironically, "hot" in political terms, presenting escalating challenges for Arctic peoples and nations seeking to respond to political agendas that increasingly emerge from outside the region.
