The phenomenologists were concerned to show that essential
structures of being, knowable by rational insight, are found far
more abundantly than is commonly thought. In his great monograph
Reinach shows that in the civil law, where one usually thinks that
there are only legal structures of human devising, there are in
fact many essential structures, such as the structure of promising
or of owning. These pre-positive structures, which are something
different from the moral norms relevant to the positive law,
provide the civil law with a foundation that can be known by
philosophical insight. Though the enactments of the civil law are
changeable, these essential foundations are not changeable. Of
particular significance and originality is Reinach's concept of a
social act, that is, of an act that addresses another and has to be
heard by the other in order to be complete. Reinach shows that the
essence of legally relevant acts such as promising, comes to
evidence when they are understood as social acts. The concept of a
social act, in fact, has significance far beyond the part of legal
philosophy in which Reinach first discovers it.
Father-son relationships can be notoriously difficult. Often
fractious, sometimes hostile, and occasionally destructive, the
issue of authority is negotiated by fathers and sons in a range of
styles. In this fascinating new book, John Crosby describes the
filial relationships of 20 historical figures to illustrate the
different ways they related to their fathers, and what this can
tell us about love, authority and the wider family context. Sons
and Fathers is an approach to understanding this son-father
conflict based on early life experience rather than upon
psycho-historian or psycho-biographical material and theorizing.
Each vignette is designed to be read as a biographical account, but
is bookended by a section reflecting on how each man's relationship
to his father can be understood in the context of key developmental
theories, in particular those of Eric Erikson and Murray Bowen's
family system theory. The book also includes an extended
introduction to both theorists for those unfamiliar with their
work, as well as a discussion of the role of corporal punishment as
a method of disciplining children. From Michael Jackson to Bing
Crosby, Joseph Stalin to John F Kennedy, this is a uniquely
accessible but insightful book that will appeal to both general
readers as well as students of Developmental Psychology across the
lifespan, Family Studies, Marriage and Family therapy, and related
subjects. It will also appeal to professionals working in the area,
including social workers, counsellors and therapists.
