Nach der gesetzlichen Regulierung der aktiven Sterbehilfe in den Niederlanden und in Belgien mehren sich auch in Deutschland die Stimmen, die eine Legalisierung der aktiven Sterbehilfe fordern. Es ist daher ein Gebot der Stunde, die komplexe Problematik der Sterbehilfe zu erläutern und eine sachliche Diskussion über die moralischen Probleme der Sterbehilfe jenseits von Emotionen und Ideologien zu ermöglichen. In dieser zweiten, völlig überarbeiteten Auflage des Bandes zur aktiven und passiven Sterbehilfe wird abschließend auch die interdisziplinäre Diskussion um den ärztlich assistierten Suizid dokumentiert.

This volume gathers the work of the Brussels Discourse Theory Group, a group of critical media and communication scholars that deploy discourse theory as a theoretical backbone and an analytical research perspective. The book seeks to show the value and applicability of discourse-theoretical analysis (DTA) within the field of media and communication studies, through a variety of case studies that highlight both the radical contingent nature and the hegemonic workings of media and communication practices.

"Is political equality viable given the unequal private property holdings characteristic of a capitalist economy? This book places the wealth-politics nexus at the centre of scholarly analysis. Traditional theories of democracy and property have often ignored the ways in which the rich attempt to convert their wealth into political power, operating on the implicit assumption that politics is isolated from economic forces. This book brings the moral and political links between wealth and power into clear focus. The chapters are divided into three thematic sections. Part I analyses wealth and politics from the perspective of various political traditions, such as liberalism, republicanism, anarchism, and Marxism. Part II addresses the economic sphere, and looks at the political influence of corporations, philanthropists and commons-based organizations. Finally, Part III turns to the political sphere and looks at the role of political parties and constitutions, and phenomena such as corruption and lobbying. Wealth and Power: Philosophical Perspectives will be of interest to scholars and advanced students working in political philosophy, political science, economics, and law"--

En octobre 1998, le prix Nobel d'économie a, pour la première fois, été attribué à un économiste issu du tiers monde et spécialiste internationalement reconnu des questions de développement. Encore mal connu du grand public, Amartya Sen est un économiste inclassable. Philosophe et, par dessus tout, humaniste, il s'est efforcé de montrer que l'analyse économique traditionnelle était incapable de penser la diversité des comportements humains et qu'il était nécessaire d'y introduire des considérations politiques, sociales et, surtout, éthiques. Ses travaux sur la famine et la grande pauvreté l'ont ainsi conduit à s'interroger sur le rapport entre liberté individuelle et égalité sociale, entre démocratie et développement économique ainsi que sur le rôle de l'État dans la redistribution des richesses. Les deux textes rassemblés dans ce livre constituent une introduction à l'œuvre d'Amartya Sen. Le lecteur y découvrira une réflexion vive et stimulante, nourrie d'expériences personnelles et d'exemples concrets, d'un économiste atypique qui, sans cesse, nous rappelle que l'économie est avant tout au service du bien-être de tous.
