Zustand: Sehr gut | Seiten: 350 | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | In 1835, Alexis de Tocqueville famously called for 'a new political science' that could address the problems and possibilities of a 'world itself quite new.'

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. "The majestic elaboration of thought manifested in St. Thomas's work," says Josef Pieper, consists partly "in the fact that the theological wisdom of the earliest Christian centuries is interwoven with the philosophical heritage of the Greek world." In his Summa Theologica, we find not only a masterful synthesis of Aristotle and the Bible, but also a "genuine conversation or dialogue" with the greatest minds of philosophy and theology, including Plato and St. Augustine, Cicero and St. Ambrose. "St. Thomas is, in effect, placing himself within the stream of traditional truth nourished by the past; without claiming to give a final solution, he leaves the way open for future quest and discovery as that stream flows onward toward the yet unknown." Students of political philosophy have much to gain from the Summa, a book written "for the instruction of beginners," and whose influence on subsequent theory and practice in religion, politics, culture, and law has been immeasurable. At 3,000 pages, however, it can be difficult to navigate for the modern reader. This volume contains a selection of passages carefully chosen to give us direct access to Aquinas's main arguments on ethics (including human nature, psychology, happiness, virtue, and natural law) and politics (including human law, the political regime, and justice), as well as those theological questions most closely related to his political thought. It thereby seeks to reopen the way to this stream of insights into the nature of and means of achieving truth, justice, and the common good. This item is printed on demand.

Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. More than Kings and Less than Men: Tocqueville on the Promises and Perils of Democratic Induvidualism examines Alexis de Tocqueville's hopes and fears for modern democracy, arguing that the distinctive political philosophy informing Democracy in America can help us to think more profoundly about the problems facing liberal democratic society today. L. Joseph Hebert, Jr. argues that Tocqueville saw the historical power of democracy as originating in its promise to liberate human nature, and the greatness it is capable of achieving, from the artificial constraints of conventional hierarchy. He probes Tocqueville's fear that the momentum of democratic change may violate that promise by neglecting or even stifling human greatness in the name of an artificial equality of conditions. Hebert explains why Tocqueville saw the need for a "new political science" to regulate democracy, and why Tocqueville thought that the central task of this science, supported by enlightened statesmanship, was to combat "individualism," an extreme form of civic, moral, and intellectual apathy capable of ushering in a historically unprecedented form of despotism. Hebert looks in depth at the principles of Tocqueville's political science, their relation to classical, modern, and contemporary political thought, and their practical applications in his time and ours. He outlines the model Tocqueville recommended for a free and flourishing modern democratic order and analyzes the primary mechanisms Tocqueville proposed for avoiding the perils and securing the promise of democracy in his own day. Hebert observes that many of Tocqueville's fears regarding individualism are occurring today, and analyzes how Tocqueville's insights might be applied to combat individualism and promote genuine liberty in our own time. This book explains why Tocqueville saw the central task of modern statesmanship as combating 'individualism, ' a type of civic apathy that he thought capable of robbing modern citizens of human virtue and issuing in a historically unprecedented form of despotism. It looks in de. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
