A Companion to Naturalism

Offering a engaging and accessible portrait of the current state of the field, A Companion to Naturaslim shows students how to think about the relation between Philosophy and Science, and why is both essencial and fascinating to do so. All the authors in this collection reconsider the core questions in Philosophical Naturalism in light of the challenges raised in Contemporary Philosophy. They explore how philosophical questions are connected to vigorous current debates - including complex questions about metaphysics, semantics, religion, intentionality, pragmatism, reductionism, ontology, metaethics, mind, science, belief and delusion, among others – showing how these issues, and philosopher’s attempts to answer them, matter in the Philosophy. In this sense, this collection is also compelling and illuminating reading for philosophers, philosophy students, and anyone interested in Naturalism and their place in current discussions.

Aristotle on Emotions in Law and Politics

  • Publisher: Springer

In this book, experts from the fields of law and philosophy explore the works of Aristotle to illuminate the much-debated and fascinating relationship between emotions and justice. Emotions matter in connection with democracy and equity – they are relevant to the judicial enforcement of rights, legal argumentation, and decision-making processes in legislative bodies and courts. The decisive role that emotions, feelings and passions play in these processes cannot be ignored – not even by those who believe that emotions have no legitimate place in the public sphere. A growing body of literature on these topics recognizes the seminal insights contributed by Aristotle. This book offers a comprehensive analysis of his thinking in this context, as well as proposals for inspiring dialogues between his works and those written by a selection of modern and contemporary thinkers. As such, the book offers a valuable resource for students of law, philosophy, rhetoric, politics, ethics and history, but also for readers interested in the ongoing debate about legal positivism and the relevance of emotions for legal and political life in today’s world.

Volume 19, Tome VI: Kierkegaard Bibliography

The long tradition of Kierkegaard studies has made it impossible for individual scholars to have a complete overview of the vast field of Kierkegaard research. The large and ever increasing number of publications on Kierkegaard in the languages of the world can be simply bewildering even for experienced scholars. The present work constitutes a systematic bibliography which aims to help students and researchers navigate the seemingly endless mass of publications. The volume is divided into two large sections. Part I, which covers Tomes I-V, is dedicated to individual bibliographies organized according to specific language. This includes extensive bibliographies of works on Kierkegaard in some 41 different languages. Part II, which covers Tomes VI-VII, is dedicated to shorter, individual bibliographies organized according to specific figures who are in some way relevant for Kierkegaard. The goal has been to create the most exhaustive bibliography of Kierkegaard literature possible, and thus the bibliography is not limited to any specific time period but instead spans the entire history of Kierkegaard studies.

Derecho tributario y análisis económico del derecho

  • Categories: Law

"El profesor Paulo Caliendo es ciertamente lo que se puede llamar, sin rodeos, un jurista completo y totalmente comprometido con el mundo de la vida. Venció sus límites, superó las dificultades y se tornó, con su invariable modestia y franca simpatía, uno de los más cultos juristas brasileños. ¡En su generación, nadie se asemeja a él! Se trata del primer y más completo estudio de Law and Economics aplicado al Derecho Tributario del cual tengo conocimiento. No se puede negar que existen magníficos artículos esparcidos o libros que trataron de la repercusión económica del Derecho Tributario, pero no cuentan con la sistematización, la amplitud de tratamiento y los avances teóri...

Os sentidos da justiça em Aristóteles

Segundo Aristóteles, o objetivo final de nossa vida é alcançar a felicidade. Para tanto, precisamos viver racionalmente e isso implica viver segundo a virtude, que se encontra no meio-termo entre o excesso e a deficiência. Tornamo-nos virtuosos através da prática de atos virtuosos, por meio de um processo de habituação. Assim nos tornamos justos realizando atos justos. Pelo hábito adquirimos a virtude da justiça.
