Описание:
Carl Schmitt’s magnum opus, Constitutional Theory, was originally published in 1928 and has been in print in German ever since. This volume makes Schmitt’s masterpiece of comparative constitutionalism available to English-language readers for the first time. Schmitt is considered by many to be one of the most original—and, because of his collaboration with the Nazi party, controversial—political thinkers of the twentieth century. In Constitutional Theory, Schmitt provides a highly distinctive and provocative interpretation of the Weimar Constitution. At the center of this interpretation lies his famous argument that the legitimacy of a constitution depends on a sovereign decision of the people. In addition to being subject to long-standing debate among legal and political theorists in Western Europe and the United States, this theory of constitution-making as decision has profoundly influenced constitutional theorists and designers in Asia, Latin America, and Eastern Europe.
Constitutional Theory is a significant departure from Schmitt’s more polemical Weimar-era works not just in terms of its moderate tone. Through a comparative history of constitutional government in Europe and the United States, Schmitt develops an understanding of liberal constitutionalism that makes room for a strong, independent state. This edition includes an introduction by Jeffrey Seitzer and Christopher Thornhill outlining the cultural, intellectual, and political contexts in which Schmitt wrote Constitutional Theory; they point out what is distinctive about the work, examine its reception in the postwar era, and consider its larger theoretical ramifications. This volume also contains extensive editorial notes and a translation of the Weimar Constitution.

Описание:
We all experience seemingly unimportant events throughout our lives like a dangerous childhood act, the coworker we can't get along with, a promotion we desperately want and worked hard for but didn't receive, a lost love interest, some simple expression a teacher said, the time we hurt someone's feelings, the awful thing we said to someone we care about but can't take back, or something horrible we regretted doing. When we recall them from the perspective of life's rearview mirror, we realize these snippets of memory, "snipories"-perhaps trivial at the time-have profoundly impacted the person we have now become.
The genre of "snipories" is difficult to classify. It is likely best characterized as a mixture of self-help, introspection, invaluable LEDRSHHIP traits and qualities (that isn't spelled incorrectly, but you have to read the book to understand) along with great advice about how to live a happy and successful life.
Snipories contains a powerful, thought-provoking, and compelling message. It is filled with wisdom this country needs to hear. Through Little Stories, the reader is provided sound biblical reasons based on real-life personal experiences they can easily identify with for following the Word of God and living a Spirit-guided life based on Christian tenets.
This book is entertaining, thought-provoking, and humorous. Regardless of your spiritual beliefs, religious persuasion, or lack thereof, you will see yourself and someone you know in this book. This book will make you think, and you will enjoy reading it. Snipories, Little Stories, Big Lessons is an absolute must read for everyone.

She hears from the other animals that "Winter's coming," but who-- or what--is Winter? As Lily learns the ways in which her forest friends prepare for winter's arrival, she becomes more and more worried about what she should be doing. Finally, the brown bear points out that Lily has been preparing without even knowing it: her fur is thickening and turning white to help her camouflage in the changing weather. Complemented by illustrations in a mix of collage, drawing, and digital montage, this story introduces the many ways in which different animals adapt to survive winter.
