Esoteric In Religious And Spiritual Traditions - A Comparative Study

de Patrick Laude

~~145,09€~~ 130,58€ 10% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 This book offers a comparative examination of the esoteric dimension across diverse religions, including Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduism, and Islam. It seeks to answer the question of whether the concept of the esoteric can be applied across traditions and explores intersections, convergences, and differences in its use and presence therein. The book provides new avenues for research by moving beyond the study of Western esotericism and examining how the category of the esoteric can be applied in the contexts of Abrahamic faiths and Asian traditions. The book is organized into six centers of reflection, including the esoteric dialectics of hiding and revealing, the claim of esoteric traditions to restore wholeness and provide a comprehensive understanding of reality, the character of immediacy and directness, the intrinsic esoteric distinction between two truths, and the non-dualistic leanings of esoteric schools in terms of the unity of reality and the subjective immanence of an all-embracing Divine Selfhood. Overall, the book provides a comprehensive phenomenology of the esoteric in religions. It will be of interest to researchers and students of theology and religious studies.

Islamic Epistemics And Socioeconomics - A Selected Compilation Of Essays

de Masudul Alam Choudhury

~~145,09€~~ 130,58€ 10% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 This book presents selected essays on the epistemological foundation of the Islamic world-system, in the light of the exegesis of the Qur’an, to develop existing understandings of Islamic economics. A selection of key contributions by one of the world''s leading figures working at the nexus of Islamic social sciences, Islamic philosophy, and Islamic economics, the book integrates applied foundations of Islamic economics and Islamic philosophy, presenting a critical outlook on the existing state of Islamic economics and Islamic finance, within a broader framework of socio-scientific enquiry, philosophical perspectives on Islam, and philosophy of science. The author confronts the absence of epistemic groundwork upon which any fresh social and scientific enquiry is developing in Islamic economics, casting the discussion within an explanatory framework of ‘the unity of knowledge’ as bestowed by Islamic monotheistic law, which substantively characterizes the generalization and details of ‘everything’. The present work unravels this objective methodology and its application with reference to a limited number of issues and problems in global economics. Complex and multidisciplinary in its treatment, this book presents the key arguments on mathematical, philosophical, and socio-scientific modes of inquiry in deriving, developing, and empirically applying the Qur’anic methodology of the "unity of knowledge" to economic problems. It is relevant to scholars and advanced students in social scientific studies of Islam, Islamic theology and philosophy, and Islamic economics and finance.

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 This book aims to give an account of the origin and the historical evolution of the philosophical tradition of the "Way of Zhong," or "zhongdaology," which represents not only the basic characteristic of Confucian philosophical thinking but also the core spirit of Chinese culture in general. It addresses the following questions:· Is Confucianism philosophy or not?· In the rich ethics, sociology, political science and other theories of Confucianism is there a consistent philosophical metaphysics and philosophical methodology?· What is the difference between the Confucian or the traditional Chinese philosophical way of thinking and that in the Western tradition?· What influence and significance do the basic principles of Confucian philosophy have on contemporary China and even the world?The book traces back to the original sources in ancient Confucian classics, conducts systematic and comprehensive research on the core philosophical concept of Confucianism, namely the philosophy of the zhong dao (the Middle Way), and analyzes the multiple meanings and philosophical connotations clustered in the word "zhong" and embodied in the idea of "zhong dao." It points out the consistent philosophical view held by Confucianism in a series of philosophical issues, such as heaven and human, mind and material, internal desire and external conditions, subjective will and objective feasibility, ideal and reality, constancy and flexibility, means and purpose, motivation and effect, diversity and harmony, centrality and inclusiveness, etc., and termed it as "zhongdaology."It further discusses the presentation of "zhongdaological thinking" in the Confucian ethics and moral theory, social and political theory, historical view and even aesthetic view. It also provides comprehension of contemporary Chinese social and political cultural phenomena from the perspective of "zhongdaology."This book is a rare introduction for students who want to understand Confucian cultural traditions from a philosophical perspective.

Demoralizing Violence

de Ezio Di Nucci

~~145,09€~~ 130,58€ 10% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Is non-violence oppressive? This book argues that non-violent ethics keeps minoritized peoples down and helps the bourgeoisie tolerate structural injustice. Like sex, violence needs de-moralizing, in order to fulfil its emancipatory potential. Social injustice and global inequality will not deprive the privileged of their sleep, if radical measures are morally ruled out from the start. And the ethics of non-violence robs the working classes of one of the few mechanisms they have left to help them cope with our increasingly digitalized bureaucracies, developed around the needs of highly educated urban classes. There is not just the normative obvious point that it is not fair to deprive the oppressed of one of the only resources they have left; it is also that it isn’t surprising that the bourgeoisie would settle on a non-violent ethics, since that happens to prop up their privileged position - while at the same time soothing their precious conscience: capital with a soul. The book defends three overall claims: first, non-violence is oppressive, in the traditional feminist sense of keeping people down; second, non-violence helps the bourgeoisie tolerate structural injustice; and thirdly, that access to violent means is not distributed fairly across gender or race, for example.

New Thought Movement In Healthcare - History, Uses, And Abuses

de Gabriel Andrade

~~46,36€~~ 41,72€ 10% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 This book delves into the evolution of the New Thought Movement and its pervasive influence on modern healthcare. The book begins by tracing the roots of the New Thought Movement, originating in the 19th century, emphasizing the power of the mind in healing and personal development. Over time, this philosophy morphed into the contemporary positive thinking industry, becoming a significant component of Western self-help culture. The book explores how these ideas have become a contentious point in today''s culture wars, polarized between supporters who credit it for personal empowerment and critics who highlight its limitations and potential harm. Central to the discussion is an in-depth analysis of the New Thought philosophy''s impact on the healthcare industry. While acknowledging the potential benefits, such as motivating patients to adopt healthier lifestyles and fostering a sense of personal agency, the book critically examines how this philosophy''s emphasis on mental positivity can lead to victim-blaming. It argues that oversimplifying health issues by attributing them solely to personal mindset obscures the multifaceted reality of health, particularly the significant role of social determinants of health and systemic inequities. This critique underscores how attributing illness to insufficient positive thinking can perpetuate stigma and neglect the socio-economic and environmental factors critical for understanding and addressing health challenges. By offering a nuanced perspective, the book aims to catalyze discussions on integrating mindful optimism with a holistic acknowledgment of the complexities inherent in healthcare, striving for a more balanced and equitable approach
