The politics of climate change / Anthony Giddens.

ix, 269 p. : ill., map ; 23 cm.Includes bibliographical references (p. [245]-254) and index.Introduction -- Climate change, risk and danger -- Running out, running down? -- The greens and after -- The track record so far -- A return to planning? -- Technologies and taxes -- The politics of adaptation -- International negotiations, the EU and carbon markets -- The geopolitics of climate change.Since it first appeared, this book has achieved a classic status. Reprinted many times since its publication, it remains the only work that looks in detail at the political issues posed by global warming. This new edition has been thoroughly updated and provides a state-of-the-art discussion of the most formidable challenge humanity faces this century. If climate change goes unchecked, the consequences are likely to be catastrophic for human life on earth. Yet for most people and for many policy-makers too, it tends to be a back-of-the-mind issue. We recognize its importance and even its urgency, but for the most part it is swamped by more immediate concerns. Political action and intervention on local, national and international levels are going to have a decisive effect on whether or not we can limit global warming as well as how we adapt to that already occurring. However, at the moment, argues Giddens, we do not have a systematic politics of climate change. Politics-as-usual won't allow us to deal with the problems we face, while the recipes of the main challenger to orthodox politics, the green movement, are flawed at source. Giddens introduces a range of new concepts and proposals to fill in the gap, and examines in depth the connections between climate change and energy security--Back cover.

The social pathologies of contemporary civilization / edited by Kieran Keohane, Anders Petersen.

Classical and contemporary social theoryIncludes bibliographical references and index.pt. 1. Social pathologies: addressing the question. The Notion of Social Pathology: A case study of Narcissus in American society / Alain Ehrenberg -- The social pathologies of contemporary civilization: Meaning-giving experiences and pathological expectations concerning health and suffering / Arpad Szakolczai -- Modernity as spiritual disorder: searching for a vocabulary of social pathologies in the work of Eric Voegelin / Bjørn Thomassen. pt. 2. Social pathologies: contemporary malaises. The value of houses in the libidinal economy: financialization as social pathogenesis / Kieran Keohane -- Depression: resisting ultra-liberalism? / Bert van den Bergh -- The pathologization of morality / Svend Brinkmann -- The multiple self: a social pathology? / Annalisa Porfilio -- Possible Explanations for increasing antidepressant treatment in modem society / Margerethe Nielsen and Gunnar Scott Reinbacher. pt. 3. Socioa pathologies: biopower, subjectification and civilization. Does society still matter? Mental health and illness and the social sciences in the twenty-first century / Pia Ringø -- Evaluations as a process of disenfranchisement / Anders Petersen and Rasmus Willig -- Schismogenesis, liminality and public health / Agnes Horvath.The Social Pathologies of Contemporary Civilization explores the nature of contemporary malaises, diseases, illnesses and psychosomatic syndromes, examining the manner in which they are related to cultural pathologies of the social body. Multi-disciplinary in approach, the book is concerned with questions of how these conditions are not only manifest at the level of individual patients' bodies, but also how the social 'bodies politic' are related to the hegemony of reductive biomedical and individual-psychologistic perspectives. Rejecting a reductive, biomedical and individualistic diagnosis of contemporary problems of health and well-being, The Social Pathologies of Contemporary Civilization contends that many such problems are to be understood in the light of radical changes in social structures and institutions, extending to deep crises in our civilization as a whole.

The philosophy of Hebrew scripture : an introduction / Yoram Hazony.

Includes bibliographical references and index.Introduction: beyond reason and revelation -- Pt. I. Reading Hebrew scripture -- The structure of the Hebrew Bible -- What is the purpose of the Hebrew Bible? -- How does the Bible make arguments of a general nature? -- The philosophy of Hebrew scripture: five studies -- The ethics of a shepherd -- The history of Israel, Genesis-kings: a political philosophy -- Jeremiah and the problem of knowing -- Truth and being in Hebrew scripture -- Jerusalem and carthage -- Pt. III. Conclusion -- God's speech after reason and revelation -- Appendix: What is "reason"? Some preliminary remarks.What if the Hebrew Bible wasn't meant to be read as "revelation"? What if it's not really about miracles or the afterlife, but about how to lead our lives in this world? The Philosophy of Hebrew Scripture proposes a new framework for reading the Bible. It shows how biblical authors used narrative and prophetic oratory to advance universal arguments about ethics, political philosophy, and metaphysics. It offers bold new studies of biblical narratives and prophetic poetry, transforming forever our understanding of what the stories of Abel, Abraham, Jacob, Joseph, Moses, and David, and the speeches of Isaiah and Jeremiah, were meant to teach. The Philosophy of Hebrew Scripture assumes no belief in God or other religious commitment. It assumes no previous background in Bible. It is free of disciplinary jargon. Open the door to a book you never knew existed. You'll never read the Bible the same way again. -- Publisher description
