Manoscritto / Collezionismo cartaceo Prima edizione
Wraps. Condizione: Fine. 1st Edition. Offered is an essay entitled "The Real Racism" (Libertarian Alliance Political Notes No. 46 ) written by Dennis O'Keeffe and published in 1990 by the Libertarian Alliance out of London, England. A single sheet measuring 8-1/4" by 11-11/16" printed on both sides. Mr. O'Keeffe begins his article by writing, "We have heard much talk in recent years in this country of 'racism.' Most of such talk has been vacuous or pernicious or both. The white British have been accused first of all of overt prejudice, a proposition rather at odds with the astonishing ease with which more than three million non-whites have been absorbed by the British nation, mostly in England, in the last three decades. The other attack accuses the British of a parallel malady known as 'institutionalized' racism. In order to make this different from the other kind, its detectors and critics have to argue what amounts, really, to the view that it is accidental, that white teachers 'inadvertently' cause black children to get bad examination results. We end up here with the nonsense of applying a morally pejorative term (racism) to alleged accidents.".

Wraps. Condizione: Fine. 1st Edition. A left-folded publication measuring 8-1/4" by 11-11/16" and containing four total pages. Mr. O'Keeffe begins, "It seems difficult to deny that in the last decade there has been a profound transformation in the British economy. It is true that the transitional costs have at times been very high, though an enormous shadow economy makes a precise specification of the hardship caused, for example, by unemployment, impossible. There is no doubt, however, that net unemployment has soared; and it remains high now: too high for any humane society.".

Aggiungi al carrelloHardback. Condizione: New. This volume, edited by Dennis O'Keeffe and with a foreword by David Willetts, explores the relationship between virtue, morality and alternative forms of economic organisation. It should be read by anybody who is interested in the relationship between morality and economic order. Despite the obvious success of the market economy in generating wealth, many commentators accept this success only grudgingly, and unthinkingly criticise the moral underpinnings of capitalist societies. "Economy and Virtue" takes such critics on and finds their criticisms wanting. It analyses how a free society both relies on and promotes values. Unless people can choose between good and evil in conditions of freedom, there is no morality in performing an action that helps another person. A market economy promotes cooperation and restrains selfishness because it relies on contracting by consenting parties, and because its legal system protects the property rights of the vulnerable, just as it does the property rights of the powerful.The authors argue that we cannot judge the market economy by observing the obvious process of 'getting and spending', because this process alone tells us nothing about the motives and character of those involved. There is much more to the market economy than material acquisition: the eminent authors in this volume discuss lucidly and convincingly the moral justifications of the market order.

Aggiungi al carrelloCondizione: Bueno. : Este libro, editado por Dennis O'Keeffe y con un prólogo de David Willetts, explora la relación entre la virtud, la moralidad y las formas alternativas de organización económica. Está dirigido a cualquier persona interesada en la relación entre la moralidad y el orden económico. A pesar del éxito obvio de la economía de mercado en la generación de riqueza, muchos comentaristas aceptan este éxito solo a regañadientes y critican irreflexivamente los fundamentos morales de las sociedades capitalistas. "Economy and Virtue" analiza cómo una sociedad libre se basa y promueve los valores. Los autores argumentan que no podemos juzgar la economía de mercado observando el proceso obvio de 'obtener y gastar', porque este proceso por sí solo no nos dice nada sobre los motivos y el carácter de los involucrados.
