An Analysis of John Stuart Mill's On Liberty【電子書籍】[ Ashleigh Campi ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>In his wonderfully clear and cogent essay <em>On Liberty</em>, Mill contends that individuals should be as free as possible from interference by government. Proposing that individual fulfilment is the surest route to collective happiness, he argues passionately against the "tyranny of the majority," and sets out to create an alternative view of a practical politics that sets proper limits on the powers of government and society.</p> <p>The result, Mill argues, will be not only greater freedom, but also improved social progress. He reached these conclusions by re-interpreting a large body of existing political and philosophical thought ? introducing insights drawn from several different schools of thought, and thereby creating an unparalleled defense of classic liberal principals. Much of the clarity of thought that Mill has become celebrated for is the product of his ability to explain meaning, define terms, and highlight problems and issues of definition ? making him an exemplar of high quality interpretive thinking.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,475円

Law, Legislation and Liberty A new statement of the liberal principles of justice and political economy【電子書籍】[ F. A. Hayek ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>With a new foreword by <strong>Paul Kelly</strong></p> <p><strong>'I regard Hayek's work as a new opening of the most fundamental debate in the field of political philosophy'</strong> ? <em>Sir Karl Popper</em></p> <p><strong>'This promises to be the crowning work of a scholar who has devoted a lifetime to thinking about society and its values. The entire work must surely amount to an immense contribution to social and legal philosophy'</strong> - <em>Philosophical Studies</em></p> <p><em>Law, Legislation and Liberty</em> is Hayek's major statement of political philosophy and one of the most ambitious yet subtle defences of a free market society ever written. A robust defence of individual liberty, it is also crucial for understanding Hayek’s influential views concerning the role of the state: far from being an innocent bystander, he argues that the state has an important role to play in defending the norms and practices of an ordered and free society. His arguments had a profound influence on the policies of Thatcher in the 1980s and resonate today in visions of the ‘Big Society’.</p> <p>First published in three separate volumes, this Routledge Classics edition makes one of his most important books available in a single volume. Essential reading for understanding the background to the recent world economic turmoil and financial crisis, it also foreshadows the subsequent heated debate about regulation and political governance if such disasters are to be avoided in the future.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 5,727円

The Reforming Treatises of Martin Luther The Most Influential Revolutionary Works: Address to the Christian Nobility of the German Nation, Prelude on the Babylonian Captivity of the Church & A Treatise on Christian Liberty【電子書籍】

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>"Address to the Christian Nobility of the German Nation" is the first of the three tracts written by Martin Luther in 1520. In this work, he defined for the first time the signature doctrines of the priesthood of all believers and the two kingdoms. After the church made a strong attempt at drawing distinct lines on saying who had authority in the spiritual sphere and its matters. This division of Christians into spheres motivated Luther to write on the "three walls" the "Romanists" created to protect themselves from reform. "Prelude on the Babylonian Captivity of the Church" is a theological treatise, the second of the three major tracts from 1520. In this work Luther examines the seven sacraments of the Catholic Church in the light of his interpretation of the Bible. With regard to the Eucharist, he advocates restoring the cup to the laity, dismisses the Catholic doctrine of Transubstantiation but affirms the real presence of the body and blood of Christ in the Eucharist, and rejects the teaching that the Mass is a sacrifice offered to God. "A Treatise on Christian Liberty" is the third of Luther's major reforming treatises of 1520. It developed the concept that as fully forgiven children of God, Christians are no longer compelled to keep God's law; however, they freely and willingly serve God and their neighbors. Luther also further develops the concept of justification by faith. In the treatise, Luther stated, "A Christian is a perfectly free lord of all, subject to none. A Christian is a perfectly dutiful servant of all, subject to all."</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 300円

A Letter to Thomas F. Bayard Challenging Government Authority: A Natural Law Perspective on Individual Rights and Liberty【電子書籍】[ Lysander Spooner ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>In "A Letter to Thomas F. Bayard," Lysander Spooner engages in a profound discourse on the nature of law, government, and individual rights, employing a clear, logical style that reflects his background in legal philosophy and abolitionist thought. Written as a response to the political climate of his time, the letter critiques the moral underpinnings of state authority, asserting that no government has the legitimate right to infringe upon individual liberty. Spooner's arguments are particularly notable for their embrace of rationalism and individualism, situating the work within the broader context of 19th-century American political thought, which grappled with the tensions between liberty and authority amidst the backdrop of slavery and civil rights movements. Lysander Spooner, an ardent abolitionist and self-taught lawyer, was a pivotal figure in American libertarian thought. His belief in natural law and civil disobedience was shaped by his experiences in a society steeped in inequality and injustice. Spooner's fierce dedication to personal freedom and his commitment to challenging the status quo resonate throughout this letter, making it a vital reflection of his broader ideological battles. I highly recommend "A Letter to Thomas F. Bayard" for anyone interested in political philosophy, especially those seeking insights into the interplay between state power and individual rights. Spooner's articulate critique invites readers to reconsider the moral foundations of governance and inspires a timeless advocacy for personal liberty.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 310円

The Freest Market in the World The Constitutional Logic of Economic Liberty in China’s Hong Kong【電子書籍】[ Gonzalo Villalta Puig ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>On the 25th anniversary of the establishment of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People’s Republic of China, this book presents the first monographic study of the Hong Kong Basic Law as an economic document. The Basic Law codifies what Gonzalo Villalta Puig and Eric C Ip call <em>free market constitutionalism</em>, the logic of Hong Kong’s economic liberty as the freest market economy in the world.</p> <p>This book, which is the outcome of several years of study with the financial support of the General Research Fund of Hong Kong’s Research Grants Council, evaluates the public choice rationale of the Basic Law and its projection on the Hong Kong economy, with a focus on the policy development of economic liberty both internally and externally. In the academic tradition of James M Buchanan’s constitutional political economy, the book opens with a conceptualisation of free market constitutionalism in Hong Kong. It studies the origins of this concept in the 19th-century classically liberal common law and how it developed into a Hayekian laissez-faire convention under British colonial rule, was codified into the Basic Law and is interpreted and applied by the branches of the Government of the Region. The book closes with remarks on the future of Hong Kong’s free market constitutionalism in face of recent challenges as the year 2047 approaches and the 50 years of ‘unchanged’ capitalist system under the Basic Law pass.</p> <p>This book will appeal to students, scholars and practitioners of law, economics, political science and public administration. It will especially appeal to those with an interest in Hong Kong law, international economic law or comparative constitutional law.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 8,423円

On Liberty【電子書籍】[ John Stuart Mill ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>“Every man who says frankly and fully what he thinks is so far doing a public service. We should be grateful to him for attacking most unsparingly our most cherished opinions.”</p> <p>Published in 1859, John Stuart Mill’s On Liberty presented one of the most eloquent defenses of individual freedom in nineteenth-century social and political philosophy and is today perhaps the most widely-read liberal argument in support of the value of liberty. Mill’s passionate advocacy of spontaneity, individuality, and diversity, along with his contempt for compulsory uniformity and the despotism of popular opinion, has attracted both admiration and condemnation.</p> <p>In his much quoted, seminal work, Mill attempts to establish standards for the relationship between authority and liberty. He emphasizes the importance of individuality which he conceived as a prerequisite to the higher pleasuresーthe summum bonum of Utilitarianism. Furthermore, Mill criticized the errors of past attempts to defend individuality where, for example, democratic ideals resulted in the “tyranny of the majority.” Among the standards established in this work are Mill's three basic liberties of individuals, his three legitimate objections to government intervention, and his two maxims regarding the relationship of the individual to society "which together form the entire doctrine of [Mill's] Essay."</p> <p>This enhanced E-Book edition includes links to free unabridged audio recordings of ‘On Liberty’ as well as an image gallery.</p> <p>*Text optimized for Kobo.<br /> *Image gallery.<br /> *Links to free complete audio recordings.<br /> *Perfect formatting in rich text features.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 99円

Law, Liberty and the Constitution A Brief History of the Common Law【電子書籍】[ Harry Potter ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Throughout English history the rule of law and the preservation of liberty have been inseparable, and both are intrinsic to England's constitution. This accessible and entertaining history traces the growth of the law from its beginnings in Anglo-Saxon times to the present day. It shows how the law evolved from a means of ensuring order and limiting feuds to become a supremely sophisticated dispenser of justice and the primary guardian of civil liberties.This development owed much to the English kings and their judiciary, who, in the twelfth century, forged a unified system of law - predating that of any other European country - from almost wholly Anglo-Saxon elements. Yet by theseventeenth century this royal offspring - Oedipus Lex it could be called - was capable of regicide. Since then the law has had a somewhat fractious relationship with that institution upon which the regal mantle of supreme power descended, Parliament.<br /> This book tells the story of the common law not merely by describing major developments but by concentrating on prominent personalities and decisive cases relating to the constitution, criminal jurisprudence, and civil liberties. It investigates the great constitutional conflicts, the rise of advocacy, and curious and important cases relating to slavery, insanity, obscenity, cannibalism, the death penalty, and miscarriages of justice. The book concludes by examining the extension of the law into the prosecution of war criminals and protection of universal human rights and the threats posed by over-reaction to national emergencies and terrorism. Devoid ofjargon and replete with good stories, <em>Law, Liberty and the Constitution</em> represents a new approach to the telling of legal history and will be of interest to anyone wishing to know more about the common law - the spinal cordof the English body politic.</p> <p>Harry Potter is a former fellow of Selwyn College, Cambridge and a practising barrister specialising in criminal defence. He has authored books on the death penalty and Scottish history andwrote and presented an award-winning series on the history of the common law for the BBC.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 3,368円

The Narrow Corridor States, Societies, and the Fate of Liberty【電子書籍】[ Daron Acemoglu ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>**From the winners of the 2024 Nobel Prize for Economics and the authors of the international bestseller <em>Why Nations Fail</em></p> <p>"Why is it so difficult to develop and sustain liberal democracy? The best recent work on this subject comes from a remarkable pair of scholars, Daron Acemoglu and James A. Robinson. In their latest book, <em>The Narrow Corridor</em>, they have answered this question with great insight." ーFareed Zakaria,** <em><strong>The Washington Post</strong></em></p> <p>In <em>Why Nations Fail</em>, Daron Acemoglu and James A. Robinson argued that countries rise and fall based not on culture, geography, or chance, but on the power of their institutions. In their new book, they build a new theory about liberty and how to achieve it, drawing a wealth of evidence from both current affairs and disparate threads of world history.</p> <p>Liberty is hardly the "natural" order of things. In most places and at most times, the strong have dominated the weak and human freedom has been quashed by force or by customs and norms. Either states have been too weak to protect individuals from these threats, or states have been too strong for people to protect themselves from despotism. Liberty emerges only when a delicate and precarious balance is struck between state and society.</p> <p>There is a Western myth that political liberty is a durable construct, arrived at by a process of "enlightenment." This static view is a fantasy, the authors argue. In reality, the corridor to liberty is narrow and stays open only via a fundamental and incessant struggle between state and society: The authors look to the American Civil Rights Movement, Europe’s early and recent history, the Zapotec civilization circa 500 BCE, and Lagos’s efforts to uproot corruption and institute government accountability to illustrate what it takes to get and stay in the corridor. But they also examine Chinese imperial history, colonialism in the Pacific, India’s caste system, Saudi Arabia’s suffocating cage of norms, and the “Paper Leviathan” of many Latin American and African nations to show how countries can drift away from it, and explain the feedback loops that make liberty harder to achieve.</p> <p>Today we are in the midst of a time of wrenching destabilization. We need liberty more than ever, and yet the corridor to liberty is becoming narrower and more treacherous. The danger on the horizon is not "just" the loss of our political freedom, however grim that is in itself; it is also the disintegration of the prosperity and safety that critically depend on liberty. The opposite of the corridor of liberty is the road to ruin.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 981円

The Liberty Wars: The Trump Time Bomb【電子書籍】[ Joe Dixon ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Trump is in the White House. Forget the Culture Wars, the Liberty Wars are about to erupt on the grand, apocalyptic scale. Do you know the difference between positive and negative liberty? You had better find out fast. They define the world we live in, and the immense conflicts to come. Politics has failed. The advent of Donald Trump - a Plutocrat with zero political experience - as the President of the USA shows that democracy is now coming to its end. If the President can be a non-politician, a demagogue of the old school, why do we need any politicians at all? What have the politicians ever done for us? The Reckoning is here. As John F. Kennedy said, "The hottest places in Hell are reserved for those who in time of moral crisis preserve their neutrality."</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 851円

Ancient and Modern Democracy Two Concepts of Liberty?【電子書籍】[ Wilfried Nippel ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Ancient and Modern Democracy is a comprehensive account of Athenian democracy as a subject of criticism, admiration and scholarly debate for 2,500 years, covering the features of Athenian democracy, its importance for the English, American and French revolutions and for the debates on democracy and political liberty from the nineteenth century to the present. Discussions were always in the context of contemporary constitutional problems. Time and again they made a connection with a long-established tradition, involving both dialogue with ancient sources and with earlier phases of the reception of Antiquity. They refer either to a common cultural legacy or to specific national traditions; they often involve a mixture of political and scholarly arguments. This book elucidates the complexity of considering and constructing systems of popular self-rule.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 19,274円

UNSCRIPTED Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Entrepreneurship【電子書籍】[ MJ DeMarco ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>WHAT IF LIFE WASN'T ABOUT DECADES OF WAGE-SLAVERY, PAYING BILLS, AND THEN DYING?</strong></p> <p>Today’s contemporary slavery is an implied social contract whereas a gilded cage is exchanged for voluntary indebtedness and lifelong toil, a price sacrificed by a non-redeemable fifty-years of Monday through Friday, a willful servitude in which freedom is only promised by the dawn of life's fading twilight.”<br /> <em><strong>~ MJ DeMarco</strong></em></p> <p><strong>HAS AN INVISIBLE SCRIPT HIJACKED YOUR LIFE?</strong><br /> <strong>UNLOCK YOUR TRUTH. UNLEASH YOUR DREAM.</strong></p> <p>Tired of sleepwalking through a mediocre life bribed by mindless video-gaming, redemptive weekends, and a scant paycheck from a soul-suffocating job? Welcome to the <em><strong>SCRIPTED</strong></em> clubー where membership is neither perceived or consented.</p> <p>The fact is, ever since you’ve been old enough to sit obediently in a classroom, you have been culturally engineered for servitude, unwittingly enslaved into a Machiavellian system where illusionary rules go unchallenged, sanctified traditions go unquestioned, and lifelong dreams go unfulfilled. As a result, your life is hijacked and marginalised into debt, despair, and dependence. Life's death sentence becomes the daily curse of the trivial and mundane. Fun fades. Dreams die. Don't let life's consolation prize become a car and a weekend.</p> <p>Recapture what is yours and make a revolutionary repossession of life-and-liberty through the pursuit of entrepreneurship. A paradigm shift isn't neededーthe damn paradigm needs to be thrown-out altogether.</p> <p>The truth is, if you blindly follow <strong>conventional</strong> wisdom pushed by <strong>conventional</strong> people living <strong>conventional</strong> lives, can you expect to be anything but <strong>conventional</strong>? Rewrite life’s script: ditch the job, give Wall Street the bird, and escape the insanity of trading your life away for a paycheck and an elderly promise called retirement.</p> <p><em><strong>UNSCRIPT today and start leading lifeー instead of life leading you.</strong></em></p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,346円

Our Biggest Fight Reclaiming Liberty, Humanity, and Dignity in the Digital Age【電子書籍】[ Frank H. McCourt Jr. ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>NATIONAL BESTSELLER ? The internet as we know it is broken. Here’s how we can seize back control of our lives from the corporate algorithms and create a better internetーbefore it’s too late.</strong></p> <p><strong>“In the spirit of Thomas Paine’s Revolution-era <em>Common Sense</em>, this manifesto challenges us to create new digital architectures to safeguard democracy.”ーWalter Isaacson, #1 <em>New York Times</em> bestselling author of <em>Elon Musk</em></strong></p> <p>It was once a utopian dream. But today’s internet, despite its conveniences and connectivity, is the primary cause of a pervasive unease that has taken hold in the U.S. and other democratic societies. It’s why youth suicide rates are rising, why politics has become toxic, and why our most important institutions are faltering.</p> <p>Information is the lifeblood of any society, and our current system for distributing it is corrupted at its heart. Everything comes down to our ability to communicate openly and trustfully with each other. But, thanks to the dominant digital platforms and the ways they distort human behavior, we have lost that abilityーwhile, at the same time, we’ve been robbed of the data that is rightfully ours.</p> <p>The roots of this crisis, argue Frank McCourt and Michael Casey, lie in the prevailing order of the internet. In plain but forceful language, the authorsーa civic entrepreneur and an acclaimed journalistーshow how a centralized system controlled by a small group of for-profit entities has set this catastrophe in motion and eroded our personhood.</p> <p>And then they describe a groundbreaking solution to reclaim it: rather than superficial, patchwork regulations, we must reimagine the very architecture of the internet. The resulting “third-generation internet” would replace the status quo with a new model marked by digital property rights, autonomy, and ownership.</p> <p>Inspired by historical calls to action like Thomas Paine’s <em>Common Sense</em>, <em>Our Biggest Fight</em> argues that we must act now to embed the core values of a free, democratic society in the internet of tomorrow. Do it right and we will finally, properly, unlock its immense potential.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 2,456円
