Constitutional Conscience

Constitutional Conscience

H. Jefferson Powell

University of Chicago Press
2008
sidottu
While many recent observers have accused American judges - especially Supreme Court justices - of being too driven by politics and ideology, others have argued that judges are justified in using their positions to advance personal views. Advocating a different approach - one that eschews ideology but still values personal perspective - H. Jefferson Powell makes a compelling case for the centrality of individual conscience in constitutional decision making.Powell argues that almost every controversial decision has more than one constitutionally defensible resolution. In such cases, he goes on to contend, the language and ideals of the Constitution require judges to decide in good faith, exercising what Powell calls the constitutional virtues: candor, intellectual honesty, humility about the limits of constitutional adjudication, and willingness to admit that they do not have all the answers. "Constitutional Conscience" concludes that the need for these qualities in judges - as well as lawyers and citizens - is implicit in our constitutional practices, and that without them judicial review would forfeit both its own integrity and the credibility of the courts themselves.

Conscience Over Mind by Faith to Rule Over the Senses: Conscience Over Mind by Faith to Rule Over the Senses

Stephen H. Sergeant

nidottu
Stephen H. Sergeant's new book is an extensive and scripturally supported mixture of biblical commentary and guide to spiritual growth. It places a special emphasis on New Testament concepts and focuses heavily on the character of God and the personhood of Jesus Christ-and what Jesus's teachings mean for humanity. But at its heart, this book is designed to inspire all those who seek an in-depth understanding of the Christian life and how to live it in the fullness of joy.Part I, "Love, Faith, and Hope," focuses heavily on faith-specifically on trusting, obeying, and surrendering to God by faith. Part II, "Separation of Light and Darkness," speaks to heavier themes of spiritual adultery and the end times. Part III, "Jesus Is the Lord of the Sabbath," discusses the seventh-day Sabbath and the promise of the "New Earth."But one major theme runs throughout Sergeant's book: we must ask God to fill us with compassion for others, because only then will we find true fulfillment.Sergeant promises that following Christ will result in more than just spiritual rebirth-it's the key to a stress-free, healthful life of true joy and contentment.

Conscience Incorporated

Conscience Incorporated

Michael H. Posner

NEW YORK UNIVERSITY PRESS
2024

Category Winner, 2025 PROSE Awards: Business, Finance, and Management Category A guide for business leaders working to create socially conscious, sustainable companies—while pursuing profits Amid growing international concerns about income inequality, labor abuses, racial injustice, and disinformation online, Conscience Incorporated examines the gaps in current corporate social responsibility measures and what more needs be done to address these challenges. The rise of new technologies such as smartphones and social media have made it easier than ever to document and spread awareness of corporate actions. Despite these developments, large corporations often fail to meaningfully address the human rights abuses linked to their business models and practices. In Conscience Incorporated, Michael Posner addresses what lies at the root of these challenges, drawing on his extensive personal experience as a human rights lawyer, State Department official under President Obama, chair of the Fair Labor Association and Director of the Center for Business and Human Rights at NYU Stern School of Business. Drawing from research into the history of business ethics and anchoring his argument with examples of companies publicly accused of human rights abuses—Nike, Coca-Cola, Walmart, Meta, and more—Posner provides a blueprint for global business leaders to navigate human rights challenges and adopt sustainable corporate practices. Conscience Incorporated highlights the need for increased protections for outsourced workers in faraway nations, greater attention to harmful online content, and prioritization of human rights by investors. He argues that growing public awareness has not been enough to enforce ethical practices for global businesses. As a result, governments, especially in Europe, are becoming more involved in regulating global business practices in various industries. Posner proposes a series of concrete reforms and argues compellingly for why businesses need to devote greater time and resources to protecting basic human rights. Conscience Incorporated is a powerful challenge to the status quo and advocates for a fundamental shift in the principles that govern global businesses.

Jews of Conscience

Marc H Ellis

Wipf Stock Publishers

pokkari
Influenced by the Jewish ethical tradition and the dissonance of Jewish life after the Holocaust, Professor Marc H. Ellis has sought to revive the Jewish ethical tradition in the face of the demands of the late-twentieth and twenty-first centuries. In his early career, he examined the ways Holocaust Theology and Liberation Theology facilitated Jewish and Christian ethical engagements with the violent political and economic crises emerging alongside international markets and forms of government. Over the course of his career, Professor Ellis has translated this broad engagement into his own understanding of the Jewish ethical tradition as tethered to and endangered by the increasing identification of Jewishness with politics in the United States and Israel. Within this trajectory, Professor Ellis has developed further insight into the complex ways Jews, Christians, and Muslim relate in the contemporary period. Since then, he has used his position, influence, and writings to further examine these issues, and been welcomed by a wide variety of audiences, from university forums to faith-based groups seeking justice and peace in interfaith settings. He has given endowed and keynote lectures in the United States, Israel, Canada, Taiwan, Korea and the Philippines. Professor Marc H. Ellis has authored and edited more than twenty-five books, including Peter Maurin: Prophet in the Twentieth Century, Ending Auschwitz: The Future of Jewish and Christian Life, Out of the Ashes: The Search for Jewish Identity in the Twenty-First Century, Encountering the Jewish Future with Wiesel, Buber, Heschel, Arendt, and Levinas, and Toward a Jewish Theology of Liberation, now in its third edition.
