Описание:
Alt werden will jeder. Alt sein nicht nicht unbedingt. Aber was hei en Alter und Altern? Wodurch ist unser Leben im Alter - jenseits von biologischen Faktoren - bestimmt? A. Kruse und H.-W. Wahl, zwei f hrende Alternsforscher, vermitteln in diesem klar geschriebenen Buch anhand der Befunde moderner Forschung die Botschaft: Alter kann, je nach individueller und gesellschaftlicher Weichenstellung, einen erf llten Lebensabend bedeuten und dabei eine wichtige soziale Funktion erf llen. Und selbst bei Pflegebed rftigkeit oder Demenz finden sich noch sehr verschiedenartige Gestaltungsm glichkeiten der individuellen Lebensbedingungen. Wir m ssen die Weichen jetzt richtig stellen, wenn wir gesellschaftlich und individuell die Herausforderungen des Alterns bew ltigen wollen.

Описание:
Das Gesundheitswesen befindet sich im Umbruch. Steigende Anspruche der Patienten stehen restriktiver Ausgabebereitschaft der offentlichen medizinischen Versorgung gegenuber. Kurzfristige budgetorientierte "Gesundheitspolitik" macht vernunftige Reformen zum Wohle Aller beinahe unmoglich. Der Mut zu notwendigen, tief greifenden Veranderungen fehlt sowohl der Politik wie auch den Sozialversicherungstragern und den Arztekammern. Die Folge sind unzufriedene Patienten und uberforderte Arzte. Die "Zweiklassenmedizin" hat sich bereits etabliert, was die immens steigende Anzahl der Wahlarzte beweist. Die Kassenpraxis als "geschutzte Werkstatte" ist passe, Patienten sind zunehmend bereit, trotz sozialer Absicherung Geld fur Gesundheitsdienstleistungen auszugeben. Der niedergelassene Arzt von morgen braucht Strategien, um sich in diesem Umfeld zu behaupten. Die Autoren zeigen auf, wie man auf die Wandlung des Patienten vom Bittsteller zum selbst zahlenden Konsumenten moderner Gesundheitsleistungen reagieren kann.

Описание:
Police who engage in torture are condemned by human rights activists, the media, and people across the world who shudder at their brutality. Stark revelations about torture by American forces at places like Guantanamo Bay have stoked a fascination with torture and debates about human rights. Yet despite this interest, the public knows little about the officers who actually commit such violence. How do the police understand what they do? How do their beliefs inform their responses to education and activism against torture?
Just Violence reveals the moral perspective of perpetrators and how they respond to human rights efforts. Through interviews with law enforcers in India, Rachel Wahl uncovers the beliefs that motivate officers who use and support torture, and how these beliefs shape their responses to international human rights norms. Although on the surface Indian officers' subversion of human rights may seem to be a case of "local culture" resisting global norms, officers see human rights as in keeping with their religious and cultural traditions—and view Western countries as the primary human rights violators. However, the police do not condemn the United States for violations; on the contrary, for Indian police, Guantanamo Bay justifies torture in New Delhi. This book follows the attempts of human rights workers to both persuade and coerce officers into compliance. As Wahl explains, current human rights strategies can undermine each other, leaving the movement with complex dilemmas regarding whether to work with or against perpetrators.

Описание:
William C. Hackett’s English translation of Jean Wahl’s Existence humaine et transcendence (1944) brings back to life an all-but-forgotten book that provocatively explores the philosophical concept of transcendence. Based on what Emmanuel Levinas called “Wahl’s famous lecture” from 1937, Existence humaine et transcendence captured a watershed moment of European philosophy. Included in the book are Wahl's remarkable original lecture and the debate that ensued, with significant contributions by Gabriel Marcel and Nicolai Berdyaev, as well as letters submitted on the occasion by Heidegger, Levinas, Jaspers, and other famous figures from that era. Concerned above all with the ineradicable felt value of human experience by which any philosophical thesis is measured, Wahl makes a daring clarification of the concept of transcendence and explores its repercussions through a masterly appeal to many (often surprising) places within the entire history of Western thought. Apart from its intrinsic philosophical significance as a discussion of the concepts of being, the absolute, and transcendence, Wahl's work is valuable insofar as it became a focal point for a great many other European intellectuals. Hackett has provided an annotated introduction to orient readers to this influential work of twentieth-century French philosophy and to one of its key figures.

Описание: While there is no single hero of the Minnesota women's movement, Rosalie Wahl, the first woman on the Minnesota Supreme Court, changed the way her fellow judges saw the cases they decided. A champion of both women's rights and civil rights, she brought new attention to the problems that faced women impoverished by divorce, women abused by their partners, and others who coped with poverty and discrimination. With sharp intelligence and hard work, Wahl herself had overcome childhood tragedy and a difficult marriage to become a defense attorney, a respected judge, and a mentor to many. As essential backdrop to Wahl's inspiring story, Lori Sturdevant charts the progress of the women's rights movement in Minnesota and showcases notable leaders on both sides of the aisle. Meet Arvonne Fraser and Emily Anne Staples, founders of the Minnesota Women's Political Caucus; Joan Growe, the first Minnesota woman elected to state office; and many more who paved the way for women's rights in Minnesota. Her Honor is both a powerful record of an era and a tribute to a humble leader. Lori Sturdevant, Minneapolis Star Tribune columnist, has written and edited several books of Minnesota history, including The Pillsburys of Minnesota.
