Man, the State, and War

Man, the State, and War

Kenneth Waltz; Stephen M. Walt

Columbia University Press
2018
pokkari
What are the causes of war? How might the world be made more peaceful? In this landmark work of international relations theory, first published in 1959, the eminent realist scholar Kenneth N. Waltz offers a foundational analysis of the nature of conflict between states. He explores works by both classic political philosophers, such as St. Augustine, Hobbes, Kant, and Rousseau, and modern psychologists and anthropologists to discover ideas intended to explain war among states and related prescriptions for peace. Waltz influentially distinguishes among three “images” of the origins of war: those that blame individual leaders or human nature, those rooted in states’ internal composition, and those concerning the structure of the international system. With a foreword by Stephen M. Walt on the legacy and continued relevance of Waltz’s work, this anniversary edition brings new life to a perennial international relations classic.

The Post-Racial Church

The Post-Racial Church

Kenneth Mathews; M Sydney Park

Kregel Publications,U.S.
2011
pokkari
In what has arguably been called "post-racial America," how is the church doing at actually being post- racial] Have churches laid aside assumptions and prejudices] How does the church today function in its role of reconciliation] In The Post-Racial Church, Kenneth Mathews and Sydney Park present a scriptural framework for how the church ought to operate as a multiethnic culture. If the church is called to the work of reconciliation, if the universal church is multiethnic, and if every tribe and tongue will praise God together in the end, then shouldn't individual churches reflect that truth today] In this book pastors will find biblical, philosophical, and practical reasons for challenging the local church to become a multiethnic congregation that joins together in worship of the God who calls each of us.
Faith Has Its Reasons – Integrative Approaches to Defending the Christian Faith

Faith Has Its Reasons – Integrative Approaches to Defending the Christian Faith

Kenneth Boa; Robert M. Bowman Jr.

Inter-Varsity Press,US

Ever since the apostle Paul addressed the Stoic and Epicurean philosophers in Athens, relating the Christian worldview to a non-Christian world has been a challenge. And despite Peter's charge to be ready to make a defense to everyone who asks you to give an account for the hope that is in you (1 Peter 3:15), most Christian laypeople have left apologetics—the defense of the faith—to the ecclesiastical pros. Faith Has Its Reasons is a study of four different models of how apologetics should be done, an assessment of their strengths and weaknesses, and a proposal for integrating the best insights of each. Kenneth Boa and Robert Bowman have assembled a wealth of information about what Christians believe and how to present that faith to an unbelieving world. Remarkable both in its depth of content and ease of accessibility, Faith Has Its Reasons gives Christian laypeople the tools to address such critical questions as: Why is belief in God rational despite the prevalence of evil in the world? What facts support the church's testimony that Jesus rose from the dead?Can we be certain Christianity is true? How can our faith in Christ be based on something more secure than our own understanding without descending into an irrational emotionalism?

"The service of social work is directed primarily to freeing and helping individuals to find and fulfill themselves-their own unique selves-within the society of which they are a part." This emphasis on "respect for individual personality, for the significance of the individual as such and in his own right" is the keynote of these writings of the late Dean of the Pennsylvania School of Social Work. Chosen for the most part from the work of the last decade, the writings collected here stress his interest in public welfare and penology, the two fields in which his contributions have been most extensive and consistent. The volume is divided into four parts: I. Earlier Formulations of the Philosophy Underlying Social Work Practice II. Public Welfare Ill. Penology IV. Final Statement of the Philosophy Underlying Social Work Practice This sharing of the wisdom and understanding of a lifetime dedicated to professional service in the field of social work will prove helpful and stimulating to administrators, teachers, and social workers everywhere.
