This volume collects studies into the legal thought of Francisco Suárez. Both his theoretical system-building as well as his interventions in practical questions are covered. Next to questions of legal theory, the chapters cover various branches of the law including private law, criminal law and international law.
This is a bilingual edition of the selected peer-reviewed papers that were submitted for the International Symposium on Jesuit Studies on the thought of the Jesuit Francisco Suárez (1548–1617). The symposium was co-organized in Seville in 2018 by the Departamento de Humanidades y Filosofía at Universidad Loyola Andalucía and the Institute for Advanced Jesuit Studies at Boston College. Suárez was a theologian, philosopher and jurist who had a significant cultural impact on the development of modernity. Commemorating the four-hundredth anniversary of his death, the symposium studied the work of Suárez and other Jesuits of his time in the context of diverse traditions that came together in Europe between the late Middle Ages, the Renaissance, and early modernity.
"Juan Pablo I hasta ahora solo ha sido recordado por su brevísimo pontificado y por las versiones conspirativas de su muerte, que van desde hipótesis de envenenamiento y abandono de persona hasta especulaciones de un asesinato llevado a cabo por la mafia, a la que tuvo que enfrentar durante todos sus cargos. Hoy vuelve a la escena mundial por un acontecimiento trascendental acaecido en la Argentina que reescribe la historia y transforma a un papa olvidado, efímero, menospreciado en una nueva y luminosa presencia. El Vaticano impuso una restricción para hablar de este episodio excepcional, pero este libro presenta al mundo lo que Roma se calla: el milagro argentino. Testimonios exclusivos...
Die Theorie der menschlichen Gesetze bildet das konzeptionelle Zentrum der gesamten suárezischen Rechtslehre. Sowohl systematische als auch historische Gründe sprechen für diese zentrale Stellung der Theorie zur rechtlichen Ordnung von menschlicher Gesellschaft und Staat. Der Band versammelt nach dem Muster eines kooperativen Kommentars Studien zu den wichtigsten Kapiteln dieser im dritten Buch von 'De legibus' entwickelten Staatsrechtslehre. Dabei werden Fragen der allgemeinen Herrschaftslegitimation ebenso beantwortet wie Suárez' Ausführungen zur Staatsräson, zur Gewissensverpflichtung, zur Volkssouveränität und zum Widerstandsrecht. Mit Beiträgen von Oliver Bach, Norbert Brieskorn, Mariano Delgado, Holger Glinka, Frank Grunert, Franz Hespe, Dieter Hüning, Tilman Repgen, Stefan Schweighöfer, Kurt Seelmann und Gideon Stiening.

In and Out of View models an expansion in how censorship is discursively framed. Contributors from diverse backgrounds, including artists, art historians, museum specialists, and students, address controversial instances of art production and reception from the mid-20th century to the present in the Americas, Africa, Asia, Europe, and the Middle East. Their essays, interviews, and statements invite consideration of the shifting contexts, values, and needs through which artwork moves in and out of view. At issue are governmental restrictions and discursive effects, including erasure and distortion resulting from institutional policies, canonical processes, and interpretive methods. Crucial considerations concerning death/violence, authoritarianism, (neo)colonialism, global capitalism, labor, immigration, race, religion, sexuality, activism/social justice, disability, campus speech, and cultural destruction are highlighted. The anthology-a thought-provoking resource for students and scholars in art history, museum and cultural studies, and creative practices-represents a timely and significant contribution to the literature on censorship.
Hilaire Belloc’s thinking on the economy constitutes, by its originality and acuity, a heterodox approach of the greatest interest in addressing the economic problems of his time and those of our own. Belloc’s main interest as a writer were on economics and history, and his works were praised by economists such as F. A. Hayek or Wilhelm Röpke and political philosophers such as Robert Nisbet and Russell Kirk, but his contributions have been often overlooked. To address that oversight, this book inserts Belloc ́s ideas into the academic dialogue on economics. Despite not being a trained economist, Belloc developed his thought based on a coherent system rooted in original elements such as...
