Описание: This book examines the influence and activities of the Christian Right at the state level. One of the first attempts at studying the Christian Right comparatively across states, this book offers a new theoretically-driven perspective on how political context and constraints shape the Christian Right's strategy and influence. Based on evidence from in-depth case studies of three states - Indiana, Missouri, and Arizona - and qualitative and quantitative data from a wide variety of other states, its conclusions demonstrate that the movement's strategies and behavior are based on the political opportunity structure of each state, the movement's internal resources, and its ability to utilize threat-based mobilization.

Автор: Burstein Andrew Название: Democracy`s Muse: How Thomas Jefferson Became an FDR Liberal, a Reagan Republican, and a Tea Party Fanatic, All the While Being Dead ISBN: 0813937221 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780813937229 Издательство: Mare Nostrum (Eurospan) Рейтинг: Цена: 43470.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: In political speech, Thomas Jefferson is the eternal flame. No other member of the founding generation has served the agendas of both Left and Right with greater vigor. When Franklin Roosevelt dedicated the iconic Jefferson Memorial on the founder’s two hundredth birthday, in 1943, he declared the triumph of liberal humanism. Harry Truman claimed Jefferson as his favorite president, too. And yet Ronald Reagan was as great a Jefferson admirer as any Democrat. He had a go-to file of Jefferson’s sayings and enshrined him as a small-government conservative.So, who owns Jefferson--the Left or the Right? The unknowable yet irresistible third president has had a tortuous afterlife, and he remains a fixture in today’s culture wars. Pained by Jefferson’s slaveholding, Democrats still regard him highly. Until recently he was widely considered by many African Americans to be an early abolitionist. Libertarians adore him for his inflexible individualism, and although he formulated the doctrine of separation of church and state, Christian activists have found intense religiosity between the lines in his pronouncements.The renowned Jefferson scholar Andrew Burstein lays out the case for both ""Democrat"" and ""Republican"" Jefferson as he interrogates history’s greatest shape-shifter, the founder who has inspired perhaps the strongest popular emotions. In this timely and powerful book, Burstein shares telling insights, as well as some inconvenient truths, about politicized Americans and their misappropriations of the past, including the concoction of a ""Jeffersonian"" stance on issues that Jefferson himself could never have imagined.Here is one book that is more about ""us"" than it is about Jefferson. It explains how the founding generation’s most controversial partisan became essential to America’s quest for moral security—how he became, in short, democracy’s muse.

Описание: This book is an extended argumentfor the critical importance which justice and ethical leadership should have inbusiness ethics education. The book examines the history of ideas and purposesin education, the contemporary role of business schools, and the socialfoundations of moral education to conclude that the pragmatic pursuit of thegood must be a central aim of business strategy. To meet the challenges offacing society today, the masters of business must be moral craftsmen in a justand democratic private property economy that serves the common good. The authorgrounds this vision for business leadership in the centrality of systems ofexchange in human society, in generating prosperity and providing for thegeneral welfare. Business ethics education has focused primarily on moralformation of individual leaders and managers in the context of ethical codes,organizational culture, and legal compliance. Important as this approach is, itfails to generate a sufficient level of business responsibility to satisfylegitimate social concerns regarding the use of natural resources,environmental sustainability, reasonable limitation of systemic risk in capitalmarkets, and fair allocation of goods and services. If the social purpose ofbusiness is not intentionally embraced and diligently pursued, the economy mayenrich a few but impoverish the society, its resources, and its democracy.Hence this book argues for a new vision of business ethics that isgrounded in public accountability of business operations and outcomes for thecommon good, as a matter of justice.
