Dieses historische Buch kann zahlreiche Tippfehler und fehlende Textpassagen aufweisen. Kaufer konnen in der Regel eine kostenlose eingescannte Kopie des originalen Buches vom Verleger herunterladen (ohne Tippfehler). Ohne Indizes. Nicht dargestellt. 1685 edition. Auszug: ... one sticks to the best, and the other to the worst. In all things there is somewhat that is good, and especially in a book, which commonly is made with study. Some are of so aukward a mind, that amongst a thousand perfections, they'll hit upon the onely fault that is to be found, and speak of nothing else, as if they were onely cut out for common sewers of the filth of the will and wit of others: and for keeping a Register of all the faults which they fee. That is rather the punilhment of their bad discerning, than the exercise of their subtiky. They spend their life ill, because they onely feed on naughty things. Happier are they, who amongst a thousand.faults at first discover a perfection that happened to be there by chance. MAXIME CXLI. Not to listen to ones self. It's worth little to be satisfied with ones self, if one content not others. Commonly self-esteem is punished by universal contempt. He that pays himself, remains a debtor to all others. It is misbecoming for one to speak, that he may hear himself. If it be folly to speak to ones self, it is doubly so to listen to himself before others. It is a fault in great men to speak with an imperious tone: and that which stuns those who hear them; at every word they fay, their ears importunately beg applause or flattery. The presumptuous speak also by echo: and since the conversation moves upon the stilts of Pride, every word comes guarded with this impertinent exclamation: Rarely well said! Ah that's a sweet faying. MAXIME CXLII. Never to espouse a bad party in spight to an Adversary yoho bath taken the letter. He that does it, is half overcome, and at length will be constrained wholly to yield. That is never a good way to be...

A vital and underappreciated dimension of social interaction is the way individuals justify their actions to others, instinctively drawing on their experience to appeal to principles they hope will command respect. Individuals, however, often misread situations, and many disagreements can be explained by people appealing, knowingly and unknowingly, to different principles. On Justification is the first English translation of Luc Boltanski and Laurent Thévenot's ambitious theoretical examination of these phenomena, a book that has already had a huge impact on French sociology and is likely to have a similar influence in the English-speaking world. In this foundational work of post-Bourdieu sociology, the authors examine a wide range of situations where people justify their actions. The authors argue that justifications fall into six main logics exemplified by six authors: civic (Rousseau), market (Adam Smith), industrial (Saint-Simon), domestic (Bossuet), inspiration (Augustine), and fame (Hobbes). The authors show how these justifications conflict, as people compete to legitimize their views of a situation. On Justification is likely to spark important debates across the social sciences.

"Mazzone has focused our attention on an important and underappreciated topic; the way hypocrisy suppresses the complaints of the oppressed and poses a particular threat not just to our politics but to democracies as a whole. The topic could hardly be more urgent." -- Ekow N. Yankah, Thomas M. Cooley Professor of Law at the University of Michigan, USA Unconfessed by definition, hypocrisy is one of the most used and abused polemical categories, even today, to denounce the "masked cynicism" of certain social actors, especially when they hold public office. But has hypocrisy always been just that? Should we really always be wary of it and challenge its every manifestation? What forms of hypocrisy can we distinguish? What kind of relationship exists between hypocrisy and the lack of self-critical attitude of those who are used to challenge the conduct of others? And above all: what relationship exists between this common vice, democratic politics and the institutional reproduction of different forms of oppression and domination? These are just some of the questions that inspire this philosophical journey back into the history of one of the most chameleonic concepts of Western culture. In Mazzones conception, democratic hypocrisy includes argumentative strategies used by institutional actors to refuse any kind of responsibility when their decisions, actions or roles are called into question by the protests of citizens in a democratic context. He reveals the relationship that exists between such apologetic narratives and the institutional reproduction of different forms of oppression and domination. Ultimately, the book urges civic vigilance against underhand wannabe authoritarians, who as a group are evolving to find new ways to trick people into opposing democracy. Leonard Mazzone is Research Associate in Social and Political Philosophy at the Department of Social and Political Sciences of the University of Florence, Italy.
