Free Download Daniel Halliday, "Inheritance of Wealth: Justice, Equality, and the Right to Bequeath"
English | 2018 | ISBN: 0198803354, 0198860005 | PDF | pages: 248 | 1.2 mb
Daniel Halliday examines the moral grounding of the right to bequeath or transfer wealth. He engages with contemporary concerns about wealth inequality, class hierarchy, and taxation, while also drawing on the history of the egalitarian, utilitarian, and liberal traditions in political philosophy. He presents an egalitarian case for restricting inherited wealth, arguing that unrestricted inheritance is unjust to the extent that it enables and enhances the intergenerational replication of inequality. Here, inequality is understood in a group-based sense: the unjust effects of inheritance are principally in its tendency to concentrate certain opportunities into certain groups. This results in what Halliday describes as ‘economic segregation’. He defends a specific proposal about how to tax inherited wealth: roughly, inheritance should be taxed more heavily when it comes from old money. He rebuts some sceptical arguments against inheritance taxes, and makes suggestions about how tax schemes should be designed.

Free Download Giles E.M. Gasper, "Anselm of Canterbury and his Theological Inheritance"
English | ISBN: 0754639118 | 2004 | 224 pages | EPUB | 2 MB
Anselm of Canterbury is one of the most famous of medieval Christian thinkers, who left a considerable political and intellectual inheritance of his own. This book reveals that the theological and intellectual inheritance available to Anselm was more dynamic, broader and deeper than is traditionally thought and Anselm was influenced by more than just the works of St Augustine. Giles Gasper focuses particularly on the part played by the translated works of the Greek Fathers. Demonstrating how widely the writings of the Fathers of the Church were available in western libraries, Gasper goes on to compare key aspects of doctrine in Anselm’s thought with that of the notable Greek Fathers. Questioning the way in which Anselm and other authors have been described, this book moves away from well worn routes of interpretation and provides new perspectives on this most significant figure in the history of the church, the middle ages, and western thought.

Free Download Giles E.M. Gasper, "Anselm of Canterbury and his Theological Inheritance"
English | 2016 | pages: 218 | ISBN: 0754639118 | PDF | 4,1 mb
Anselm is a major figure in theological, philosophical and historical studies. This book provides a fresh approach to the study of this great figure; one which provides critical interaction with current critical thinking whilst arguing in favour of the idea of theological unity in Anselm’s corpus. Exploring the Proslogion, but also more ‘minor’ works, David Hogg interacts with the theological content of Anselm’s writings: showing how Anselm’s ontological argument fits into the wider context of his theology; comparing the holistic approach of Anselm’s thought with that of other medieval personages and fitting him into the wider medieval context; and revealing how Anselm’s theology integrates the atonement and questions of predestination, the fall of the Devil and free will, and other issues. The book concludes with an assessment of the impact of Anselm’s theology during his own time, and the continuing effect his thinking has had on succeeding centuries of theological development.

Free Download Jan Luiten van Zanden, "The Strictures of Inheritance: The Dutch Economy in the Nineteenth Century "
English | ISBN: 0691114382 | 2004 | 416 pages | PDF | 25 MB
A major feat of research and synthesis, this book presents the first comprehensive history of the Dutch economy in the nineteenth century-an important but poorly understood piece of European economic history. Based on a detailed reconstruction of extensive economic data, the authors account for demise of the Dutch economy’s golden age. After showing how institutional factors combined to make the Dutch economy a victim of its own success, the book traces its subsequent emergence as a modern industrial economy.

Free Download Zhitian Luo, "Inheritance within Rupture: Culture and Scholarship in Early Twentieth Century China "
English | ISBN: 9004247793 | 2015 | 451 pages | PDF | 2 MB
In Inheritance within Rupture, Luo Zhitian brings together ten essays to explore the themes of change and continuity, rupture and inheritance from the late Qing through the early Republic (1890s-1940s). Rejecting binaries such as tradition/modernity, conservative/liberal, Luo blurs the divisions between intellectual opponents and clarifies the divergences between scholarly friends. Centering these discussions around some of the most famous intellectual debates in the modern period, Luo challenges our understanding of ideological positions, political affiliation, and scholarly identity in early twentieth-century China. By focusing on the influence of cultural inheritance within the rupture of modernity, we come to understand those concerns shared by all Chinese in their own times and in the present.
