Автор: Hobson John Atkinson Название: The Crisis of Liberalism - New Issues of Democracy ISBN: 1528714997 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781528714990 Издательство: Неизвестно Рейтинг: Цена: 30640.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: First published in 1909, "The Crisis of Liberalism - New Issues of Democracy" is a fascinating treatise by English economist John Atkinson Hobson that explores the state of Liberalism in England at the beginning of the twentieth century as well as the various dangers and threats to it. Contents include: "Democracy", "Liberalism and Socialism", and "Applied Democracy". John Atkinson Hobson (1858 - 1940) was an English social scientist and economist most famous for his work on imperialism-which notably had an influence on Vladimir Lenin-as well as his theory of underconsumption. His early work also questioned the classical theory of rent and predicted the Neoclassical "marginal productivity" theory of distribution. This vintage book will appeal to those with an interest in Liberalism and English politics in general, and it would make for a fantastic addition to collections of allied literature. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with the original text and artwork.
Politics in the Times of Indignation provides a critical look at Western liberal democracies in crisis, to provide us with the theoretical tools to make sense of the political disorientation of our times.
Indispensable for understanding the present state of democratic societies, this book is a lens through which we can study numerous contemporary developments. He examines the popular indignation that has accompanied the crisis of governmental legitimacy, which is aggravated by the economic crisis in various countries and demonstrated by groups such as the Occupy Wall Street Movement in the US, Podemos in Spain, or La France Insoumise in France.
At the same time, Innerarity endeavors to offer a universal, rather than a merely circumstantial, interpretation of the transformations that are still ongoing in our political systems, as well as of those that need to be put in place in order to satisfy the expectations and rights of democratic citizenship. Politics in the Times of Indignation represents a guiding thread through political developments, as well as a conceptual tool-box for understanding the meaning of the current crisis of representation, the fate of political parties, the relation between ethics and politics, and how politics can become an intelligent enterprise.
