Just Property: Volume Three: Property in an Age of Ideologies de Christopher Pierson

Just Property: Volume Three: Property in an Age of Ideologies

Autor Christopher Pierson
en Limba Engleză Hardback – mai 2020
This third and concluding volume of Just Property brings critical accounts of property right up to the present. The book is made up of five pairs of chapters located in five major ideological traditions of modernity: liberalism, libertarianism, social democracy, conservatism, and feminism. As before, the focus is on particular thinkers and their daring, puzzling and sometimes outrageous views. The concluding chapter returns to the project's opening questions about property and inequality and about property under the imperative of growth to limits. If we are to confront the enormous challenges that loom in front of us, we have, above all else, to think again, and quite radically, about the place of property in our collective lives.

Notă biografică

Christopher Pierson has been Professor of Politics at the University of Nottingham since 1996. He has held visiting positions at the Australian National University, the University of California, Santa Barbara, Johns Hopkins University (Baltimore), the University of Auckland, and at the Hansewissenschaftskolleg in Lower Saxony. He has published extensively on the themes of the welfare state, the problems of social democracy and, over the last decade, on the politics of property.

Recenzii

Pierson takes the reader through the Greeks, the Romans, the early Christian church, the Medieval World, the early sixteenth-century, the later sixteenth century, natural law and natural right in the seventeenth century, and seventeenth-century radicals. While this list of topics indicates Piersons ambition, it does little to convey the impressive scholarship that he demonstrates throughout this magnificent book.
In sum, the book is an excellent resource in the history of ideas. Not only does Pierson engage directly with the texts -- from which he has drawn ample excerpts -- he is also engaged with later and present-day work interpreting those texts. In this sense the volume is a useful (though not comprehensive) exposition of the "state of the art" in present-day interpretation of a number of figures, not all of whom are household names ... a great service to political philosophers and others working in this field
Just Property amply illustrates, by historical example, why property should be at the core of political theory. The strength of Just Property is in how it combines rigorous scholarship with witty commentary that quietly celebrates Rousseau's 'heroic failure' and sighs at the German Idealists' knack for starting in all the wrong places.
