Is Democracy Doomed?

~~106,00€~~ 95,40€ 10% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 In an era marked by political polarization, institutional strain, and global uncertainty, Is Democracy Doomed? confronts one of the most urgent questions of our time. This provocative volume gathers leading scholars from law, political science, and sociology to dissect the fragility and resilience of democratic systems in the 21st century.From Beau Breslin and Ashley Wilkerson s defense of republicanism as a safeguard against democratic collapse, to Paul Schiff Berman s exploration of dialogue as democracy s lifeblood, each chapter offers a distinct lens on the forces reshaping governance. Peter Levine applies systems theory to diagnose democracy s ailments, while Laura Beth Nielsen reimagines democracy as a relational practice rooted in trust and reciprocity. The volume also probes the legal architecture of democracy: H. Chris Tecklenburg examines the constitutional implications of nationwide injunctions, Jamie Rowen highlights the civic role of lawyers and veterans, and Laura A. Dickinson warns of the democratic risks posed by privatized national security. David Mednicoff critiques the international rule of law s paradoxes, and Jeremy Paul closes with a sobering reflection on the cultural drift toward expedience over principle.Is Democracy Doomed? invites readers into a rigorous conversation about democracy s future, and whether its foundations can withstand the pressures of our time.

 <p>This special issue offers an academic analysis of the television series <em>The Americans </em>as a reflection of current social and political trends across the United States. Uncovering the inseparability of the political and the personal through the lives of the central characters, authors consider how their performance challenges our ability to differentiate between the authentic family, the legitimate source of social reproduction and the counterfeit one that disrupts the social order.</p><p>Focusing on how television’s shift away from the traditional nuclear family is crucial to understanding the relatively rapid acceptance of same-sex marriage in mainstream politics, authors invite consideration and acceptance of alternative family forms that are often represented within LGBTQ communities.

Human Dignity

98,04€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 <p>This special issue investigates the meaning of justice and dignity and how they have changed over time. What do we mean by human dignity? How do we understand and interpret that meaning? How has it evolved?</p><p>Showcasing a selection of papers responding to this critical central question, the authors delve into issues such as the foundational roles of justice and dignity in practical philosophy and the idea that human dignity must be understood as the right to be recognized as a participant in the institutional practice of human and fundamental rights, analysing how this modern conception was incorporated into the practice of human rights after Auschwitz as a response to a crisis in the modern model of the practice of rights. Furthermore, the authors study examples of misinterpretation of the philosophical term and historical concept of human dignity in contemporary legal theory and practice alongside Kant’s notion of human dignity, that is understood as a novel ‘care of the self’. Self-violation of dignity and the exposure to violation by others - thoughtlessly or intentionally - gives way to an exploration of the language of anti-violence activists, university coordinators, and due process activists concerned with Title IX and campus sexual violence.</p><p>Providing a comprehensive look at historic and contemporary meanings of human dignity, this edited collection is an appealing read for scholars interested in the intersection of dignity with philosophy, law, human rights, legal theory, social theory, and more.</p>
