(= Chatham House Papers, 37). - "This paper explores how Soviet writers wrestle with the challenge to their ideology that is posed by the threat of nuclear war. What, for example, is the relationship between the values of peace and of socialism? What drives the arm race? Is capitalism inherently militaristic, or is a demilitarized capitalism conceivable? Is the outcome of history predetermined or open? It is shown that the range of permimssible views is wider than often assumed, and that the constraints of Soviet ideology do not exclude evolution towards a more cooperative approach to international security" (Klappentext). - Provenienz: Bibliothek des Journalisten und ZEIT-Herausgebers Theo Sommer (1930-2022; Nachlassexlibris auf der vorderen Umschlaginnenseite). - Der Umschlag etwas berieben; gutes Exemplar.

"William Kent is one of the most important figures in the history of eighteenth-century art. Yet to many people who are otherwise well acquainted with that period he remains a shadowy figure, and the enormous scope and range of his work is little appreciated. Michael Wilson summarizes his life and achievements in a readable style, and has produced an account of Kent's remarkable career which is attractive to the non-specialist and the expert alike." Both book and unclipped dust jacket are in excellent condition. All contents are tight and clean. There are no inscriptions. PLEASE NOTE: Heavyish book so a little extra may be needed for shipping to non-UK customers.

His debt to Hegel extended to drawing the unscientific conclusions of an explanation of history based on the single factor of material production and of the dialectical development that would lead in itself to the liberation of the proletariat. But Marx's economic analysis contradicted these doctrines, and he himself had begun to abandon them, renouncing unequivocally as 'futile speculation' his own dogmatic philosophical approach and adopting a truly scientific analysis of society. However what survived from his own earlier speculative phase was the doctrine of the dialectic, and although Marx had begun to extricate himself from it in stages, his followers adopted the doctrine and made it into a dogma that was to have momentous influence. Marx Against Marxism traces the origins, contradictions and consequences of Marx's teachings on his followers, the author contending that 'only an approach starting from Marx's later work can break the magic circle of fateful dogmatism and recover the humanist and political goals and scientific content of Marx.' He thus uses Marx to speak against the rigid dogmatism inherent in much of Marxism, and concentrates on the interpretations of Marx's work by Max Weber. 'It is my contention that scholars would find the challenge posed by Marx more rewarding if they approached Marx's sociology through Max Weber, who presented Marx's essential and enduring thought stripped of its philosophical dogmatism. By rejecting the monocausal explanation of behaviour, Weber made the very fruitful Marxist doctrine of historical materialism available to empirical studies.' 'Without a doubt there is much in Marx that must be reconsidered and re~examined. In this book I have tried to open a new aspect to the study of Marx, simply by extending the discussion to include Weber. It is my hope that an approach to Marx through Weber ~ an approach free of party doctrine of any kind ~ will be of value to an English~speaking audience.'.

He waged a fierce campaign against the Scots, and his claim to the throne of France started the Hundred Years War, in which the spectacular victories of Sluys, Crecy and Poitiers made the king and his eldest son, the Black Prince, into figures of legend. This was the age of chivalry, symbolized by Edward's founding of the Order of the Garter. It was also the age of the Black Death, the greatest catastrophe of the Middle Ages. No full~scale biography of Edward has appeared since Victorian times, and the standard work has remained that by Dr Joshua Barnes, printed in 1688. The present book is the only complete account of the reign of Edward III, from its violent beginnings as he avenged his father's murder, through the years of splendour, to his lonely old age and solitary death. Michael Packe looks behind the romantic figure depicted by Froissart and presents a darker side to the king's character in telling the story of Edward's seduction of 'the countess of Salisbury'. He convincingly establishes the lady's true identity~long a puzzle to historians ~ and recounts her subsequent tragic fate. At the time of his death Michael Packe had completed the first two books and most of the third, leaving the fourth book in the form of notes. It has been written from these notes by L. C. B. Seaman, who has also edited the rest of the volume.
