Free Trade with India Reimagining Trade: A 19th Century Call for Economic Reform【電子書籍】[ active 1813 Common sense ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>In "Free Trade with India," the author, known for his sharp critique of economic policies, delves into the complexities of trade relations between Britain and its colonial holdings in India. The work employs a persuasive, yet scholarly tone, dissecting the implications of free trade on both the British economy and Indian society. Drawing from contemporary debates on mercantilism and burgeoning capitalism, it situates itself in the larger discourse of economic reform movements of the early 19th century, challenging imperialistic paradigms and advocating for a more equitable trading relationship. The author'??s background'??a convergence of intellectual engagement with Enlightenment ideals and firsthand awareness of colonial exploitation'??shapes this seminal text. His experience with the social injustices surrounding trade practices in India fuels an ardent belief in the principles of free trade as not merely economic tools but as vehicles for social justice. This unique vantage point places the narrative at the intersection of economic theory and moral philosophy, making it a critical contribution to both fields. "Free Trade with India" is a must-read for scholars and laypersons interested in historical economic policies, colonial studies, and ethical trade practices. Its incisive analysis is essential for understanding not just past economic relations, but also contemporary discussions on trade, equity, and globalization.</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。 460円

Its literary context lies in the Progressive Era, where Wilson's insights highlight the growing frustrations with partisan gridlock and inefficiencies inherent in the congressional dominance of American politics. Thomas Woodrow Wilson, who would later become the 28th President of the United States, brings his deep understanding of government and political science to this seminal text. His academic background as a scholar and professor in political science, combined with his experiences as a political leader, informed his critique of congressional governance. Wilson's reflections reveal a passionate desire for a more effective and responsive government, reflecting the challenges of his own time as he envisioned how a reformed political structure could enhance democratic governance. "Congressional Government" is not just a historical account but a lasting commentary on the workings of American democracy. Readers interested in political theory, American history, or the evolution of governance will find Wilson's arguments compelling and prescient. This work serves as a foundational text for understanding the complexities of legislative power and remains relevant to contemporary discourse on governance in the United States.

Von der Freiheit eines Christenmenschen Einer der bedeutendsten Schriften zur Reformationszeit【電子書籍】[ Martin Luther ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Dieses eBook: "Von der Freiheit eines Christenmenschen" ist mit einem detaillierten und dynamischen Inhaltsverzeichnis versehen und wurde sorgf?ltig korrekturgelesen. Von der Freyheith eines Christenmenschen ist der Titel einer aus 30 Thesen bestehenden Denkschrift Martin Luthers aus dem Jahr 1520. Das Werk Luthers geh?rt zu seinen bedeutendsten Schriften zur Reformationszeit. Anlass f?r die Schrift war die gegen Martin Luther gerichtete p?pstliche Bannbulle. Im Mittelalter galt das Christentum als heilige Ordnung, welche jedem Menschen einen festen, von Gott vorbestimmten Platz zuordnete. Die Kirche als Ganzes hatte zwar laut dem Evangelium die Freiheit, diese Ordnung im Wesentlichen nach eigenem Gutd?nken festzulegen (im Gegensatz zur Bindung an ein detailliertes g?ttliches Gesetz, wie es das Judentum kannte). Der einzelne Mensch aber hatte sich in diese Ordnung einzuf?gen. Nur durch die Einf?gung in die Ordnung und die Erf?llung vielf?ltiger, von der Kirche definierter formaler Pflichten hatte der Christ gem?? der bis dahin verbindlichen Rechtfertigungslehre Teil am Heil Christi. Damit wirkte Religion der individuellen irdischen Freiheit direkt entgegen und verwies lediglich auf ein jenseits besseres, gerechtfertigtes Leben bei Gott. Martin Luther setzte dieser Sichtweise radikal die den Schriften des Paulus entnommene Auffassung entgegen, dass der Christenmensch gerade im Hier und Jetzt frei sein m?sse. Luther begr?ndet dies damit, dass der Mensch nicht durch Taten, sondern allein durch den Glauben gerechtfertigt sei. Allerdings hatte auch Paulus christlichen Sklaven dazu geraten, sich nicht gegen (christliche) Herren zur Wehr zu setzen, da wahre Freiheit nur im Glauben an Jesus Christus zu finden sei. Martin Luther (1483-1546) war der theologische Urheber der Reformation.</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

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><em>"To what, then, does one attribute the fact that from the beginning this concept of the covenant appears so much in the foreground of Reformed theology?

This essay provides an accessible, short order explanation of the covenants, giving readers a key biblical hermeneutic for understanding the breadth of biblical history, and its cohesion via the covenants.</p> <p>This electronic edition features an active table of contents.</p> <p><em>Doctrine of the Covenant</em> is part of The Fig Classic Series on Modern Theology.

Maximilian II. - Der r?tselhafte Kaiser Die Biografie: Habsburgermonarchie zwischen Reformationszeit, Religions- und Reichspolitik【電子書籍】[ Viktor Bibl ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Das biografische Werk "Maximilian II. ? Der r?tselhafte Kaiser" von Viktor Bibl bietet eine tiefgr?ndige und differenzierte Darstellung des r?misch-deutschen Kaisers Maximilian II. (1527?1576), der als einer der interessantesten, zugleich aber auch widerspr?chlichsten Herrscher der Habsburgerdynastie gilt. Maximilian, Sohn Ferdinands I. und Enkel Kaiser Maximilians I., ?bernahm in einer Zeit des religi?sen und politischen Umbruchs die Regierung ? gepr?gt von der Reformation, der Gegenreformation und den Machtk?mpfen innerhalb Europas. Das Werk zeichnet ein eindrucksvolles Bild eines Herrschers, der als einer der kl?gsten, zugleich aber auch geheimnisvollsten Kaiser des Heiligen R?mischen Reiches gilt. Bibl beschreibt Maximilian als einen tiefgr?ndigen und nachdenklichen Monarchen, der sich der Idee des Humanismus und der religi?sen Toleranz verpflichtet f?hlte. Im Gegensatz zu vielen seiner Zeitgenossen versuchte er, den Glaubensstreit zwischen Katholiken und Protestanten mit Vernunft und Verst?ndnis zu l?sen, anstatt mit Gewalt. Obwohl er selbst katholisch blieb, zeigte er gro?es Interesse f?r die Lehren der Reformatoren und lie? an seinem Hof protestantische Gelehrte zu. Diese Haltung machte ihn zu einem Symbol der M??igung und des Fortschritts im Zeitalter konfessioneller Spaltungen. Am Wiener Hof f?rderte Maximilian Wissenschaft, Kunst und Philosophie. Er sammelte B?cher, sch?tzte Forscher und schuf eine Atmosph?re geistiger Offenheit, die Wien zu einem Zentrum des europ?ischen Humanismus machte. Sein h?fisches Leben war weniger durch Prunk als durch Bildung und Nachdenklichkeit gepr?gt ? ein Ausdruck seiner pers?nlichen Bescheidenheit und seiner geistigen Neigung. Politisch gelang es Maximilian, das Reich in einer schwierigen Phase zu stabilisieren. Er f?hrte eine gem??igte Au?enpolitik, wahrte den Frieden mit den Osmanen und setzte auf diplomatische L?sungen statt auf milit?rische Abenteuer. Sein Verm?chtnis liegt in der F?rderung religi?ser Toleranz, wissenschaftlicher Erkenntnis und kultureller Bl?te. Als "r?tselhafter Kaiser" bleibt er eine faszinierende Gestalt, die Vernunft ?ber Dogma und Menschlichkeit ?ber Macht stellte. Das Werk fasziniert durch die psychologische Tiefe, mit der Bibl den Charakter des Kaisers analysiert: einen humanistischen Denker auf dem Kaiserthron, zerrissen zwischen Macht und Moral. So wird "Maximilian II. ? Der r?tselhafte Kaiser" nicht nur zur Biografie eines Herrschers, sondern zum Spiegel einer ganzen Epoche des Umbruchs und der geistigen Erneuerung Europas.</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。 150円

A Measure for Measures A Manifesto for Empirical Sociology【電子書籍】[ R Pawson ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>First Published in 2004. This challenging and pioneering work aims to provide a measure (a set of standards) for measures (empirical data) in sociological research. It argues that the critique of positivism has resulted in a methodological impasse. Criticism has pulled the rug from under positivist method but left nothing in its place. In a devastating and systematic critique the author rejects phenomenological and relativist objections to sociological measurement. A wholly new model for the empirical substantiation of sociological theory is developed based on an examination of scientific measurement techniques and a reading of realist philosophical principles. Unlike many books heralding a new direction in sociology, A MEASURE FOR MEASURES goes beyond meta-theory, providing detailed examples to show how the 'new realism' can provide a viable empirical method.</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。 13,265円

Word, Water, and Spirit A Reformed Perspective on Baptism【電子書籍】[ J. V. Fesko ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>"This book represents a substantial accomplishment, one that provides a useful resource for those wanting to deepen their understanding of the sacraments, particularly baptism. Reflecting a massive amount of research, against the background of an in-depth survey of various views of baptism in church history, Fesko provides an extensive exegetical and biblical-theological study of the covenantal and eschatological significance of baptism followed by systematic theological reflections on key issues like baptism as a means of grace, the efficacy of baptism, the biblical warrant for infant baptism (and against paedocommunion) and the importance of baptism for the church. One need not agree with his reflections at every point to benefit from his considerable labors." - Richard B. Gaffin, Jr., Professor of Biblical and Systematic Theology, Emeritus, Westminster Theological Seminary</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。 3,317円
