Abstract

Outwardly, we live in an era that appears more open-minded, non-judgemental and tolerant than in any time in human history. The very term intolerant invokes moral condemnation. We are constantly reminded to understand the importance of respecting different cultures and diversities. In this pugnacious new book, Frank Furedi argues that despite the democratisation of public life and the expansion of freedom, society is dominated by a culture that not only tolerates but often encourages intolerance. Often the intolerance is directed at people who refuse to accept the conventional wisdom and who are stigmatised as 'deniers'. Frequently intolerance comes into its own in clashes over cultural values and lifestyles. People are condemned for the food they eat, how they parent and for wearing religious symbols in public.

Abstract

Partout dans le monde, des mouvements contestent l’appropriation par une petite oligarchie des ressources naturelles, des espaces et des services publics, des connaissances et des réseaux de communication. Ces luttes élèvent toutes une même exigence, reposent toutes sur un même principe : le commun.

Abstract

Voor de gewone burger is de Europese Unie (EU) bijzonder ondoorzichtig. Ons dagelijks leven wordt nochtans voortdurend door de EU beïnvloed. Het nodige inzicht in de besluitvorming en het beleid van de EU is daarom van belang. Enkel diegenen die op de hoogte zijn kunnen immers de werking van de EU bijsturen. Wie bijvoorbeeld naar sociale vooruitgang streeft kan vandaag niet anders dan strijd voeren op Europees niveau. Maar dit vergt de nodige kennis van de Europese besluitvorming. Vanuit dit perspectief tracht dit boek een heldere gids te zijn die belangstellenden op een eenvoudige wijze doorheen de Europese doolhof loodst. Het bevat daarbij de meest recente informatie over de ontwikkeling van de Europese Unie, met inbegrip van een eerste analyse van de nieuwe Grondwet voor Europa 1. Historische ontwikkeling van de Europese integratie2. Basisbeginselen en bevoegdheden van de Europese Unie3. Politiek systeem en besluitvorming4. Rechtsorde van de Europese Unie5. Grondrechten en burgerschap van de Europese Unie6. Samenwerking inzake justitie en binnenlandse zaken7. politieke economie van de Europese Unie8. De Europese Unie in de wereld

Abstract

This study in English of Hegel's political philosophy presents an overall view of the development of Hegel's political thinking. The author has drawn on Hegel's philosophical works, his political tracts and his personal correspondence. Professor Avineri shows that although Hegel is primarily thought of as a philosopher of the state, he was much concerned with social problems and his concept of the state must be understood in this context.
