Fascynująca historia jedynego okresu w całej historii Polski Ludowej, w którym władza naprawdę musiała liczyć się z Narodem. Szesnaście miesięcy dzielące porozumienia sierpniowe od wprowadzenia stanu wojennego to najdziwniejszy czas w historii rządzonej przez komunistów Polski. Wtedy po raz pierwszy społeczeństwo mogło zadać pytania, które dziś – w różnych odmianach – nie schodzą z pierwszych stron gazet. Jaka ma być Polska? Jak wyjść z biedy? W jaki sposób zasypać rosnącą przepaść cywilizacyjną między Polską a Zachodem? A wszystko to w atmosferze zagrożenia sowiecką interwencją oraz represjami ze strony „rodzimego” aparatu władzy.
Polish Logic 1920-1939
The book examines the law and politics of rights protection in democracies, and in human rights regimes in Europe, the Americas, and Africa.
Cragg combines the findings of contemporary studies, reports and papers focusing on crime, punishment and penal practice with philosophical argument and thereby constructs a radical theory of restorative justice.
By showing how Kelsen's theory of law works alongside his political philosophy, the book shows the Pure Theory to be part of a wider attempt to understand how political power can be legitimately exercised in pluralist societies.
The United States today suffers from too much criminal law and too much punishment. Husak describes the phenomena in some detail and explores their relation, and why these trends produce massive injustice. His primary goal is to defend a set of constraints that limit the authority of states to enact and enforce penal offenses. The book urges the weight and relevance of this topic in the real world, and notes that most Anglo-American legal philosophers have neglected it. Husak's secondary goal is to situate this endeavor in criminal theory as traditionally construed. He argues that many of the resources to reduce the size and scope of the criminal law can be derived from within the criminal law itself-even though these resources have not been used explicitly for this purpose. Additional constraints emerge from a political view about the conditions under which important rights such as the right implicated by punishment-may be infringed. When conjoined, these constraints produce what Husak calls a minimalist theory of criminal liability. Husak applies these constraints to a handful of examples-most notably, to the justifiability of drug proscriptions.
