The first-person plural - 'we, ourselves' - is the hallmark of a
democracy under the rule of law in the modern age. Exploring the
roots of this 'rule of recognition', Bert van Roermund offers an
in-depth reading of Rousseau's work, focusing on its most
fundamental leitmotif: the sovereignty of the people. Providing an
innovative understanding of Rousseau's politico-legal philosophy,
this book illustrates the legal significance of plural agency and
what it means for a people to act together: What do people share
when using the word 'we'? What makes a people's actions political?
And what exactly is 'bodily' about their joint commitment? Testing
these ideas in three controversial modern debates - bio-technology,
immigrant rights and populism - Van Roermund offers a critical
assessment of 'political theology' in contemporary legal
environments and establishes a new interpretation of joint action
as bodily entrenched. Incisive and cutting-edge, this book is
crucial reading for scholars of jurisprudence and legal and
political philosophy, particularly those with a focus on
Rousseauian theory. Students of jurisprudence and constitutional
theory will also benefit from its philosophical and political
insights, as well as its discussions of pressing real-world issues.
In seven pioneering dialogues, Bert van Roermund resumes the
conversations he has had over the last twenty-five years on
reconciliation after political oppression. Questions of time are
predominant here: How does memory relate to both past and future?
Can one be a victim and perpetrator at the same time? Is
reconciliation ultimately based on an original bond among humans
that enables survivors to forgive their former oppressors? Does
this entail a betrayal of past sufferings? Such questions are
discussed in this book by a group of philosophers from (former)
conflict areas around the globe. Both the characters and the
dialogues are fictional, but at the same time, they are as real as
can be. They originate in conversations with many colleagues and
intensive research within an international network of scholars,
writers, artists, and political activists. Chapters provide
philosophical discussions on the highly relevant topic of law,
time, and reconciliation. The book reaches out to all those who
wish to reflect on the challenges of peace work, restorative and
transitional justice, refugee policies and military interventions,
as well as students and teachers of relevant disciplines including
social ethics, political philosophy, human rights and international
relations.
This timely book explores the likely success or failure of
potential transport innovations. Chapters examine societally
relevant effects of transport transitions, including impacts on the
environment, accessibility, safety and more. It focuses on complex
innovations in which both public and private actors are involved.
Combining insights from innovation sciences with evolutionary
economics, business economics, managerial sciences, psychology and
history, the chapters consider state-of-the-art innovation theories
applied to sustainable transport, with an emphasis on approaches to
understanding behaviour. The book then explores a range of
potential transitions, covering technological innovations such as
vehicle electrification, e-bikes and light electric vehicles in
city logistics, before moving on to look at service innovations
including carsharing, mobility as a service and e-shopping.
Offering coverage of both frameworks and innovation examples
themselves, this book will be an interesting read for transport
studies and innovation scholars. It will also be a useful tool for
policy makers and planners working in the area.
