Book Description
Bien es sabido que Tom�s Moro (1478-1535) no invent� la utop�a como g�nero literario, pero es innegable que su Utop�a le ha dado el nombre. Tampoco se puede negar que, exista o no convergencia con sus planteamientos, la propuesta de Moro innov� significativamente la literatura pol�tica. Utop�a es una cr�tica al orden social establecido en la Europa de la �poca, pero el sistema pol�tico que propone y describe minuciosamente en sus p�ginas es tambi�n una alternativa al mismo, de tal forma que, como se�ala Savater, la contradicci�n de la obra, y la nuestra propia, al considerar lo que en realidad es un ejercicio literario de denuncia moral como un programa pol�tico que, revolucionario en s� mismo, no admite la revoluci�n ni la disidencia. El hecho de que Moro obvie en sus planteamientos el reconocimiento de la libertad humana confiere a Utop�a la irracionalidad de la que huye, la imprevisibilidad que le niega el autor. Porque m�s all� de la utop�a colectivista siempre est� el ideal de la persona libre.

Book Description
Unfinished at the time of Kolnai's death, The Utopian Mind should be widely welcomed by students of moral and political philosophy. It provides a powerful critique of the Utopian mode of valuation. Kolnai locates utopian thinking in totalitarian systems of the Right and Left and as an unspoken background to much liberal thought and to many of the best known theories of moral philosophy.

Book Description
This book includes revisions of papers originally presented at the inaugural conference of the International Society for MacIntyrean Philosophy, on the theme of Alasdair MacIntyre's Revolutionary Aristotelianism: Ethics, Resistance and Utopia, hosted by the Human Rights and Social Justice Research Institute at London Metropolitan University. The papers selected are by fifteen leading international philosophers and political theorists. Writing from a variety of perspectives, they address MacIntyre's accounts of Aristotelianism, Thomism and Marxism, his virtue ethics and metaethics, the development of his philosophical project, and his critiques of managerialism, capitalism and liberalism. The book concludes with an extensive response by MacIntyre, in which he clarifies his past arguments, his present position, and his relation to rival theories of moral, political and social practice.

Book Description
Human rights offer a vision of international justice that today’s idealistic millions hold dear. Yet the very concept on which the movement is based became familiar only a few decades ago when it profoundly reshaped our hopes for an improved humanity. In this pioneering book, Samuel Moyn elevates that extraordinary transformation to center stage and asks what it reveals about the ideal’s troubled present and uncertain future. For some, human rights stretch back to the dawn of Western civilization, the age of the American and French Revolutions, or the post–World War II moment when the Universal Declaration of Human Rights was framed. Revisiting these episodes in a dramatic tour of humanity’s moral history, The Last Utopia shows that it was in the decade after 1968 that human rights began to make sense to broad communities of people as the proper cause of justice. Across eastern and western Europe, as well as throughout the United States and Latin America, human rights crystallized in a few short years as social activism and political rhetoric moved it from the hallways of the United Nations to the global forefront. It was on the ruins of earlier political utopias, Moyn argues, that human rights achieved contemporary prominence. The morality of individual rights substituted for the soiled political dreams of revolutionary communism and nationalism as international law became an alternative to popular struggle and bloody violence. But as the ideal of human rights enters into rival political agendas, it requires more vigilance and scrutiny than when it became the watchword of our hopes.

Book Description
En el período que transcurrió desde su infancia hasta su muerte, PLATÓN (ca. 428-ca. 347 a.C.) conoció la decadencia de la grandeza ateniense, jalonada por numerosos y señalados episodios históricos que, junto con su reiterado fracaso político en Siracusa, influyeron poderosamente tanto en su actividad política como en su trabajo intelectual. LA REPÚBLICA presenta el modelo de ciudad donde domina la justicia frente al desorden, la confusión y la perversión; sin embargo, como señala Manuel Fernández-Galiano en la introducción al volumen, el diálogo no apunta a la construcción ideal de una sociedad perfecta de hombres perfectos, sino que es un «tratado de medicina política» con aplicación a los regímenes existentes en su tiempo.

Book Description
Plato's Utopia Recast is an illuminating reappraisal of Plato's later works, which reveals radical changes in his ethical and political theory.Christopher Bobonich argues that in these works Plato both rethinks and revises important positions which he held in his better-known earlier works such as the Republic and the Phaedo. Bobonich analyses Plato's shift from a deeply pessimistic view of non-philosophers in the Republic, where he held that only philosophers were capable of virtue and happiness, to his far more optimistic position in the Laws, where he holds that the constitution and laws of hisideal city of Magnesia would allow all citizens to achieve a truly good life. Bobonich sheds light on how this and other highly significant changes in Plato's views are grounded in changes in his psychology and epistemology.This book will change our understanding of Plato. His controversial moral and political theory, so influential in Western thought, will henceforth be seen in a new light.
