When Lord Harris of High Cross (Ralph Harris) died, in October 2006 at the age of 81, the tributes to him described him as one of the 'men who changed Britain'. Friends and opponents alike acknowledged that Ralph, in his role as General Director of the Institute of Economic Affairs (IEA) and in partnership with his friend, Arthur Seldon, had been instrumental in providing the ideas and the intellectual entrepreneurship that sparked the 'Thatcher revolution' of the 1980s, transforming the British economy from one of the worst performers among developed countries to one of the best.This book selects from Ralph's considerable opus, revealing that economics need not always be a 'dismal science'. Economic analysis was, in the hands of Ralph Harris, deployed to great effect in plain language and with a wit and wisdom that made it fun. Colin Robinson's Introduction places Ralph Harris' work in context and provides an invaluable insight into the author's beliefs and personality. This book will be warmly welcomed and read by academics and researchers of economics, politics and the history of ideas as well as those interested in the work of the Institute of Economic Affairs.

A Conversation with Harris and Seldon

A Conversation with Harris and Seldon

Ralph Harris; Arthur Seldon

Institute of Economic Affairs
2001
sidottu
From the mid 1950s to the late 1980s, Ralph Harris and Arthur Seldon, as general director and editorial director respectively of the IEA, battled against a conventional wisdom which was hostile to markets. Eventually, by force of argument, they overcame much of the resistance to market ideas, and in the process established the Institute's formidable influence in shaping both opinion and policy. This Occasional Paper begins with a transcript of a conversation with Harris and Seldon which provides many insights into how they worked and what obstacles they encountered. Eight distinguished scholars, each familiar with the work of the Institute, then provide commentaries which assess its influence on thinking and the challenge to government which it constituted during the Harris/Seldon years.

Ralph Harris

Come join a story too great to imagine, but a story that's surprisingly yours. Terrific stories have been written about following and meeting with Jesus. They happen on a high place or in a magical land. But what if the meeting didn't happen in a distant or magical place, somewhere you had to go? What if it occurred inside of you-every day, at any moment-and you were God's happiest, most magical place to be? Meet Elliot Samuelson. He's 12 and lives in the little town of Sarx. He has already learned to cope. He copes with his dad's expectations. He copes with his mom's need for a sparkling family image. He copes with his teacher's rules. He copes with the bully's threats. He's a coper. In fact, everyone in Sarx has from a young age learned how to cope-and that's the problem. They all know how to cope. But no one knows how to truly live, until Elliot meets a stranger on the edge of town, who shows him a better way. A Perfect way. And Elliot's life, and the town's, are never the same. Yours won't be, either. "Best-selling author and speaker Ralph Harris knows what it is like to hurt and what it means to trust Jesus. Here, Ralph creatively shares with us the importance of the indwelling Christ, illustrating in clear ways how we can know Jesus as our everything. Whether your struggle is fear or faithfulness, 'Life According to Perfect' will encourage you in ways that only few books do. Get this book to find real answers and discover real healing." Dr. Andrew Farley, best-selling author of The Naked Gospel, and host of "Andrew Farley LIVE" on Sirius XM

Ralph Ellison's Invisible Theology

Ralph Ellison's Invisible Theology

M. Cooper Harriss

New York University Press
2017
sidottu
Examines the religious dimensions of Ralph Ellison's concept of race Ralph Ellison's 1952 novel Invisible Man provides an unforgettable metaphor for what it means to be disregarded in society. While the term "invisibility" has become shorthand for all forms of marginalization, Ellison was primarily concerned with racial identity. M. Cooper Harriss argues that religion, too, remains relatively invisible within discussions of race and seeks to correct this through a close study of Ralph Ellison's work. Harriss examines the religious and theological dimensions of Ralph Ellison's concept of race through his evocative metaphor for the experience of blackness in America, and with an eye to uncovering previously unrecognized religious dynamics in Ellison's life and work. Blending religious studies and theology, race theory, and fresh readings of African-American culture, Harriss draws on Ellison to create the concept of an "invisible theology," and uses this concept as a basis for discussing religion and racial identity in contemporary American life. Ralph Ellison's Invisible Theology is the first book to focus on Ellison as a religious figure, and on the religious dynamics of his work. Harriss brings to light Ellison's close friendship with theologian and literary critic Nathan A. Scott, Jr., and places Ellison in context with such legendary religious figures as Reinhold and Richard Niebuhr, Paul Tillich and Martin Luther King, Jr. He argues that historical legacies of invisible theology help us make sense of more recent issues like drone warfare and Clint Eastwood's empty chair. Rich and innovative, Ralph Ellison's Invisible Theology will revolutionize the way we understand Ellison, the intellectual legacies of race, and the study of religion.
