What We Owe Each Other : A New Social Contract for a Better Society / Minouche SHAFIK / Princeton University Press (2021)
Titre : What We Owe Each Other : A New Social Contract for a Better Society Type de document : e-book Auteurs : Minouche SHAFIK Editeur : Princeton University Press Année de publication : 2021 ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 9780691207643 Note générale : copyrighted Langues : Anglais (eng) Résumé : From one of the leading policy experts of our time, an urgent rethinking of how we can better support each other to thriveWhether we realize it or not, all of us participate in the social contract every day through mutual obligations among our family, community, place of work, and fellow citizens. Caring for others, paying taxes, and benefiting from public services define the social contract that supports and binds us together as a society. Today, however, our social contract has been broken by changing gender roles, technology, new models of work, aging, and the perils of climate change.Minouche Shafik takes us through stages of life we all experience—raising children, getting educated, falling ill, working, growing old—and shows how a reordering of our societies is possible. Drawing on evidence and examples from around the world, she shows how every country can provide citizens with the basics to have a decent life and be able to contribute to society. But we owe each other more than this. A more generous and inclusive society would also share more risks collectively and ask everyone to contribute for as long as they can so that everyone can fulfill their potential. What We Owe Each Other identifies the key elements of a better social contract that recognizes our interdependencies, supports and invests more in each other, and expects more of individuals in return.Powerful, hopeful, and thought-provoking, What We Owe Each Other provides practical solutions to current challenges and demonstrates how we can build a better society—together.

Titre : When Bad Thinking Happens to Good People : How Philosophy Can Save Us from Ourselves Type de document : e-book Auteurs : Steven NADLER Editeur : Princeton University Press Année de publication : 2021 ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 9780691227955 Note générale : copyrighted Langues : Anglais (eng) Résumé : Why the tools of philosophy offer a powerful antidote to today’s epidemic of irrationalityThere is an epidemic of bad thinking in the world today. An alarming number of people are embracing crazy, even dangerous ideas. They believe that vaccinations cause autism. They reject the scientific consensus on climate change as a “hoax.” And they blame the spread of COVID-19 on the 5G network or a Chinese cabal. Worse, bad thinking drives bad acting—it even inspired a mob to storm the U.S. Capitol. In this book, Steven Nadler and Lawrence Shapiro argue that the best antidote for bad thinking is the wisdom, insights, and practical skills of philosophy. When Bad Thinking Happens to Good People provides an engaging tour through the basic principles of logic, argument, evidence, and probability that can make all of us more reasonable and responsible citizens.When Bad Thinking Happens to Good People shows how we can more readily spot and avoid flawed arguments and unreliable information; determine whether evidence supports or contradicts an idea; distinguish between merely believing something and knowing it; and much more. In doing so, the book reveals how epistemology, which addresses the nature of belief and knowledge, and ethics, the study of moral principles that should govern our behavior, can reduce bad thinking. Moreover, the book shows why philosophy’s millennia-old advice about how to lead a good, rational, and examined life is essential for escaping our current predicament.In a world in which irrationality has exploded to deadly effect, When Bad Thinking Happens to Good People is a timely and essential guide for a return to reason.

Titre : Women Don't Ask : Negotiation and the Gender Divide Type de document : e-book Auteurs : Linda BABCOCK Editeur : Princeton University Press Année de publication : 2021 ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 9780691210537 Note générale : copyrighted Langues : Anglais (eng) Résumé : The groundbreaking classic that explores how women can and should negotiate for parity in their workplaces, homes, and beyondWhen Linda Babcock wanted to know why male graduate students were teaching their own courses while female students were always assigned as assistants, her dean said: "More men ask. The women just don't ask." Drawing on psychology, sociology, economics, and organizational behavior as well as dozens of interviews with men and women in different fields and at all stages in their careers, Women Don't Ask explores how our institutions, child-rearing practices, and implicit assumptions discourage women from asking for the opportunities and resources that they have earned and deserve—perpetuating inequalities that are fundamentally unfair and economically unsound. Women Don't Ask tells women how to ask, and why they should.

MILLER / Princeton University Press (2020)
Titre : Analyzing Marx : Morality, Power and History Type de document : e-book Auteurs : Richard W. MILLER Editeur : Princeton University Press Année de publication : 2020 ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 9780691066134 Note générale : copyrighted Langues : Anglais (eng) Résumé : In this book Marx is revealed as a powerful contributorto the debates that now dominate philosophyand political theory. Using the techniques of analyticphilosophy to unite Marx's general statements withhis practice as historian and activist, Richard W. Millerderives important arguments about the rational basisof morality, the nature of power, and the logic of testingand explanation. The book also makes Marx's theoryof change useful for current social science, by replacingeconomic determinist readings with a newinterpretation in which systems of power relations arethe basis of change.Part One discusses Marx's criticisms of the moralpoint of view as a basis for social choice. The outlookthat emerges is humane but antimoral. Part Two arguesthat Marx's concept of the ruling class is a means,of measuring political power that is ignored yet urgentlyneeded by present-day social science. PartThree bases Marx's theory of history on thedynamics of power, challenging both the standard,economic determinist readings of thetheory and standard conceptions of science.
