    Content: Dieses Buch entwickelt ein umfassendes Konzept zur humanitären Theorie und Praxis, welche die Subjektivität und Handlungsfähigkeit der Opfer von Katastrophen in den Mittelpunkt rückt. Während traditionelle humanitäre Ansätze ihr Handeln grundsätzlich auf die Politik des Mitleids stützen, indem sie Opfer als passive Empfänger von Hilfe, als Gegenstände des Mitleids und als Begünstigte externer Hilfe betrachten, zeigt dieses Buch, dass ein solcher Ansatz den Opfern von Katastrophen nicht gerecht wird. Es demonstriert deshalb die Notwendigkeit, über diese traditionellen Ansätze der humanitären Hilfe hinauszugehen und die Würde der Opfer in den Mittelpunkt der humanitären Diskurse und Praktiken zu stellen
    Content: This book provides an insightful view in the philosophical foundation of one the most crucial global practices, namely humanitarian action, in view of current developments in international ethics. Indeed, in a globalized world, the suffering of many people has become more tangible than ever, and therefore also a philosophical and global political puzzle. Since the first phases of the globalization, which include the founding of the Red Cross, humanitarian action in the form of various assistance and support services, emerged as a cross-border concern. After the Second World War, humanitarian actors have significantly expanded their activities and also increased in size. Along with the emergence of this humanitarian practice, an evolving humanitarian theory has emerged which intended to provide the foundations for this commitment and to determine its principles. From a philosophical point of view, it is crucial to investigate which forms of ethical foundations and normative goals underlie this development and how, in view of various philosophical traditions, these developments are to be interpreted

    Series Statement: Perspektiven der Analytischen Philosophie
    Content: Is it permissible to kill an innocent person against her will in order to prevent several other innocent persons from being killed against their will? The answer to which this essay comes after extensive discussion is - under certain conditions and limitations - affirmative. On the way to this answer, the book offers a comprehensive in-depth discussion of so-called deontic restrictions - that is, the idea of an action's being prohibited in circumstances in which performing it once would be the only way to prevent its being performed multiple times. The book's leading question is whether there is a plausible rationale for deontic restrictions. To this effect, a taxonomy and critical discussions of the most important approaches to justify deontic restrictions are provided - where many of these approaches undergo a deeper examination for the first time ever. In addition, the book clarifies some adjoining questions, such as why deontic restrictions are often perceived as being problematic or how the concept of agent-relativity should best be understood and formalized. Put into broader perspective, the conclusions offered should have a bearing on a number of debates in normative ethics, not least on the debate between deontologists and consequentialist

    Content: "This book engages in cross-tradition scholarship, investigating the processes associated with cultivating or nurturing the self in order to live good lives. Both Ancient Chinese and Greek philosophers provide accounts of the life lived well: a Confucian junzi, a Daoist sage and a Greek phronimos. By focusing on the processes rather than the aims of cultivating a good life, an international team of scholars investigate how a person develops and practices a way of life especially in these two traditions. They look at what is involved in developing practical wisdom, exercising reason, cultivating equanimity and fostering reliability. Drawing on the insights of thinkers including Plato, Confucius, Han Fei and Marcus Aurelius, they examine themes of harmony, balance and beauty, highlight the different concerns of scepticism across both traditions, and discuss action as an indispensable method of learning and, indeed, as constitutive of self. The result is a valuable collection opening up new lines of inquiry in ethics, demonstrating the importance of philosophical ideas from across cultural traditions."--Bloomsbury Publishing
    Content: Part 1. Harmony, balance, beauty: understanding conceptions of cultivation -- Part 2. Doubt, predicament, conflict: congnitive, affective, and epistemic difficulties -- Part 3. Here, now, ever-after: how to practise and achieve a good life.
