Free Download A Political Philosophy: Arguments for Conservatism by Roger Scruton, Kris Dyer, Bloomsbury Publishing Plc
English | November 11, 2021 | ISBN: B09K82GLH7 | 9 hours and 14 minutes | MP3 128 Kbps | 345 Mb
Bloomsbury presents A Political Philosophy by Roger Scruton, read by Kris Dyer.
In this timely new edition of his classic book A Political Philosophy, celebrated conservative philosopher Roger Scruton interrogates contemporary values, virtues and morality. What principles should govern our relations to animals, the nation state, the environment and other ways of life? What does modern marriage look like? What is Enlightenment, and how has its inheritance made itself known? How should we approach religion, evil and death? What explains the rise of totalitarianism, and how should we respond to nihilism?
In these philosophical reflections, Scruton adopts his characteristically articulate and unorthodox tone, making no concessions to intellectual fashion. The result is a book of bold, clear thinking that will seem refreshingly logical to many, particularly those seeking a return to first principles in an increasingly baffling age of modernity.

Free Download Paul Spicker, "Arguments for Welfare: The Welfare State and Social Policy"
English | 2017 | ISBN: 1786603012, 1786603020 | EPUB | pages: 124 | 0.6 mb
This book makes the case for the welfare state. Nearly every government in the developed world offers some form of social protection, and measures to improve the social and economic well-being of its citizens. However, the provision of welfare is under attack. The critics argue that welfare states are illegitimate, that things are best left to the market, and that welfare has bad effects on the people who receive it. If we need to be reminded why we ought to have welfare, it is because so many people have come think that we should not.

Free Download Jan Lester, "Arguments for Liberty: A Libertarian Miscellany"
English | 2016 | ISBN: 1908684623, 0956395228 | EPUB | pages: 196 | 0.7 mb
Liberty is what libertarians advocate. Both because of the inherent value of human liberty and because of the increasing wealth and welfare it brings to all. They see the aggressive coercion of the state as the main enemy of liberty. The solution is to roll back the state until there is little or no state left. Libertarianism has been rapidly growing since the 1970s. But it is still not commonly understood or even given a proper hearing. However, you will increasingly come across it. Often it will be through state enthusiasts disingenuously claiming to be ‘libertarians’. At other times it will be through state enthusiasts attacking libertarianism as an ‘extremist’ ideology. And very occasionally it will be real libertarians explaining and defending their views. J C Lester is a libertarian philosopher who has been writing about why liberty is preferable to politics for about thirty years. This book contains many of his shorter writings on the subject. These range from the populist to the philosophical. Together they function as a miscellaneous introduction to libertarianism. The various different topics and approaches should give the reader a good cross-reference grasp of the subject.

Free Download Florian Schäfer, "The Syntax of (Anti-)Causatives: External arguments in the change-of-state contexts"
English | 2008 | pages: 341 | ISBN: 9027255091 | PDF | 3,2 mb
This book develops an approach to the causative alternation that assumes syntactic event decomposition and a configurational theta theory. It is couched within the framework of the Minimalist Program and, especially, within Distributed Morphology. Central to the work is the syntax and semantics of canonical external arguments of causative verbs as well as of oblique causers and causative PPs in the context of anticausative verbs in different languages such as Germanic, Romance, Balkan, and Caucasian languages. The book also develops a new account of the origin and nature of the morphological marking which is often found on anticausatives across languages. The main claim is that this morphology is a reflex of a syntactic way to prohibit the assignment of the external theta role. Moreover, the book develops an account about the origin of the implicit agent in generic middles which often bear the same morphology as marked anticausatives.

Gibt es Differenzen zwischen Designpraxis und Designforschungspraxis? Welche Allianzen zwischen Text und Artefakt sind auf der Suche nach neuem Wissen möglich? Wie werden Theorien und Methoden aus anderen Disziplinen durch die Designforschung übersetzt und transformiert? Begibt sich die Designforschung auf den Weg zu einer formalen Disziplin, und wäre dies überhaupt ein Gewinn?

Free Download Predicates and Temporal Arguments By Theodore B. Fernald
2000 | 176 Pages | ISBN: 0195114353 | PDF | 9 MB
A distinction is made in formal semantics between "stage-level predicates," predicates that describe the general state of a noun, and "individual-level predicates," predicates that specify the specific properties of a noun. Fernald investigates various contexts in which this distinction is traditionally said to come into play. His aim is to show that the effects displayed are not uniform, and that the differences between the analyses proposed in the literature arise from the authors considering different subsets of data that they take to exemplyify the "core" meaning of the stage/individual distinction. Fernald presents alternatives and extensions that shed light on the limitations of previous theories, as well as making original observations about important aspects of the topic, including coercion, and perceptual reports vs. other phenomena.

Free Download The End of Race Politics: Arguments for a Colorblind America (Audiobook)
English | ASIN: B0C6YFZKMT | 2024 | 5 hours and 26 minutes | M4B@128 kbps | 304 MB
Author: Coleman Hughes
Narrator: Coleman Hughes
An exciting new voice makes the case for a colorblind approach to politics and culture, warning that the so-called ‘anti-racist’ movement is driving us-ironically-toward a new kind of racism. As one of the few black students in his philosophy program at Columbia University years ago, Coleman Hughes wondered why his peers seemed more pessimistic about the state of American race relations than his own grandparents-who lived through segregation. The End of Race Politics is the culmination of his years-long search for an answer. Contemplative yet audacious, The End of Race Politics is necessary listening for anyone who questions the race orthodoxies of our time.
