Identified by Plato and Aristotle as the worst kind of regime, the concept of tyranny was called into question during the Enlightenment and finally rejected in the 20th century as questions of good and evil were separated from facts-the proper domain for political science. However, in our globally interconnected world, tyrants are no longer dangerous solely to their subjects and neighbors, but to all. Confronting Tyranny brings together distinguished scholars to explore the lessons of classical political philosophy for the present political crisis of understanding and action.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 228mmItem Length: 158mmItem Width: 21mmItem Weight: 390gRelease Year: 2005 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
