The Routledge Companion to the Philosophy of Race

The Routledge Companion to the Philosophy of Race

For many decades race and racism have been common areas of study in departments of sociology history political science English and anthropology. Much more recently as the historical concept of race and racial categories have faced significant scientific and political challenges philosophers have become more interested in these areas.

Counter-Terrorist Financing Law and Policy An analysis of Turkey

Counter-Terrorist Financing Law and Policy An analysis of Turkey

Since the 9/11 attacks the world has witnessed the creation of both domestic and international legal instruments designed to disrupt and interdict the financial activities of terrorists. This book analyses the counter-terrorist financing law (CTF) policy and practice at the national level focusing on Turkey. The work examines the limits and capabilities of CTF efforts on terrorism threats and determines the effectiveness of CTF efforts in Turkey a country which has a pivotal role in terms of countering terrorism regionally and internationally. The Turkish case-study is supported by an empirical study involving 37 semi-structured interviews with CTF practitioners and law enforcement experts with different affiliations and backgrounds. The findings illustrate that Turkey’s CTF system has not obtained an adequate level of effectiveness as a result of lack of proper implementation of its policy in the bureaucratic legal and operational spheres. It is evident that the administrative and legal systems in Turkey are established according to the ‘one-size-fits-all’ international CTF standards and thus are compliant with the international CTF benchmarks yet the interviews reveal significant challenges at the implementation level including lack of training and financial security heavy handed bureaucracy inadequate coordination and communication between international and national levels. The book will be an invaluable resource for academics students and policy-makers working in the areas of financial crime and terrorism. | Counter-Terrorist Financing Law and Policy An analysis of Turkey

The Routledge Handbook of Metaphysical Grounding

The Routledge Handbook of Metaphysical Grounding

Some of philosophy’s biggest questions both historically and today are in-virtue-of questions: In virtue of what is an action right or wrong? In virtue of what am I the same person my mother bore? In virtue of what is an artwork beautiful? Philosophers attempt to answer many of these types of in-virtue-of questions but philosophers are also increasingly focusing on what an in-virtue-of question is in the first place. Many assume at least as a working hypothesis that in-virtue-of questions involve a distinctively metaphysical kind of determinative explanation called “ground. ” This Handbook surveys the state of the art on ground as well as its connections and applications to other topics. The central issues of ground are discussed in 37 chapters all written exclusively for this volume by a wide range of leading experts. The chapters are organized into the following sections:I. HistoryII. Explanation and DeterminationIII. Logic and StructureIV. ConnectionsV. ApplicationsIntroductions at the start of each section provide an overview of the section’s contents and a list of Related Topics at the end of each chapter points readers to other germane areas throughout the volume. The resulting volume is accessible enough for advanced students and informative enough for researchers. It is essential reading for anyone hoping to get clearer on what the biggest questions of philosophy are really asking. | The Routledge Handbook of Metaphysical Grounding

The Independent Labour Party 1914-1939 The Political and Cultural History of a Socialist Party

The Independent Labour Party 1914-1939 The Political and Cultural History of a Socialist Party

Historians of political history are fascinated by the rise and fall of political parties and for twentieth-century Britain most obviously the rise of the Labour Party and the decline of the Liberal Party. What is often overlooked in this political development is the work of the Independent Labour Party (ILP) which was a formative influence in the growth of the political Labour movement and its leaders in the late nineteenth century and the early to mid-twentieth century. The ILP supplied the Labour Party with some of its leading political figures such as Ramsay MacDonald and moved the Labour Party along the road of parliamentary socialism. However divided over the First World War and challenged by the Labour Party becoming socialist in 1918 it had to face the fact that it was no longer the major parliamentary socialist party in Britain. Although it recovered after the First World War rising to between 37 000 and 55 000 members it came into conflict with the Labour Party and two Labour governments over their gradualist approach to socialism. This eventually led to its disaffiliation from the Labour Party in 1932 and its subsequent fragmentation into pro-Labour pro-communist and independent groups. Its new revolutionary policy divided its members as did the Abyssinian crisis the Spanish Civil War and the Moscow Show Trials. By the end of the 1930s seeking to re-affiliate to the Labour Party it had been reduced to 2 000 to 3 000 members was a sect rather than a party and had earned Hugh Dalton’s description that it was the ‘ILP flea’. In the following monograph Keith Laybourn analyses the dynamic shifts in this history across 25 years. This scholarship will prove foundational for scholars and researchers of modern British history and socialist thought in the twentieth century. | The Independent Labour Party 1914-1939 The Political and Cultural History of a Socialist Party
