Paperback. Condition: New. Examines the origin and development of the private property rights system from prehistory to the present dayTraces the origin and development of the private property rights system from prehistory to the present day showing that it was not the product of 'appropriation' and 'voluntary trade' but of a lo…ng history of violent aggressionReviews the long history of contradictory explanations why inequality is supposedly natural and inevitable or an inevitable feature of a free societyUses anthropological evidence to show that some societies have maintained strong equality and extensive freedomAddresses the negative-freedom argument for the market economy by showing that the hunter gatherer band economy has much more extensive negative freedomThis book debunks three false claims commonly accepted by contemporary political philosophers regarding property systems: that inequality is natural, inevitable, or incompatible with freedom; that capitalism is more consistent with negative freedom than any other conceivable economic system; and that the normative principles of appropriation and voluntary transfer applied in the world in which we live support a capitalist system with strong, individualist and unequal private property rights. The authors review the history of the use and importance of these claims in philosophy, and use thorough anthropological and historical evidence to refute them. They show that societies with common-property systems maintaining strong equality and extensive freedom were initially nearly ubiquitous around the world, and that the private property rights system was established through a long series of violent state-sponsored aggressions.

Paperback. Condition: New. The state of nature, the origin of property, the origin of government, the primordial nature of inequality and war - why do political philosophers talk so much about the Stone Age? And are they talking about a Stone Age that really happened, or is it just a convenient thought experiment to illustrate t…heir points?Karl Widerquist and Grant S. McCall take a philosophical look at the origin of civilisation, examining political theories to show how claims about prehistory are used. Drawing on the best available evidence from archaeology and anthropology, they show that much of what we think we know about human origins comes from philosophers' imagination, not scientific investigation.

Rustica (tapa blanda). Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: Nuevo. 01. Desde el momento fundacional de la teoría política moderna, Hobbes y Locke, hasta gran parte del discurso liberal actual, con figuras como Hayek y Nozick, los filósofos han adquirido la mala costumbre de deslizar premisas empíricas para apoyar sus argumento…s normativos, haciéndolas pasar desapercibidas e invitando a los lectores a aceptarlas sin cuestionamiento. De ahí surgen una serie de mitos prehistóricos muy arraigados en nuestro acervo cultural que, precisamente por ello, son difíciles de reconocer y, mucho más, de desmontar. . Confundir así los mitos con la realidad, la especulación con los hechos, tiene el efecto nocivo de oscurecer nuestra capacidad de identificar las creencias con las que justificamos las estructuras de poder y los onerosos deberes ciudadanos de la actualidad. Tanto es así que en los últimos años se ha desarrollado todo un género cuyo objeto es enfrentar esa mitología con la evidencia científica aportada por la antropología y la arqueología. En esta línea se han publicado recientemente trabajos de enorme importancia de autores como David Graeber y David Wengrow, James C. Scott, Guy Standing o Yuval Harari. . Prehistoria de la propiedad privada arremete contra algunos de estos mitos prehistóricos que se utilizan para justificar la desigualdad económica. Fundamentalmente contra la idea de que la propiedad privada es natural y que su origen se remonta al de nuestra especie. De ahí la tradición propietarista ha derivado tres creencias centrales: que la desigualdad es inevitable, que la igualdad es incompatible con la libertad y que la propiedad privada viene acompañada de un principio ético inviolable que impide o limita el poder colectivo para gravarla, regularla o redistribuirla. LIBRO.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. It is little secret that most archaeologists are uneasy with statistics. Thankfully, in the modern world, quantitative analysis has been made immensely easier by statistical software packages. Software now does virtually all our statistical calculations, removing a great burden for researche…rs. At the same time, since most statistical analysis now takes place through the pushing of buttons in software packages, new problems and dangers have emerged. How does one know which statistical test to use? How can one tell if certain data violate the assumptions of a particular statistical analysis? Rather than focusing on the mathematics of calculation, this concise handbook selects appropriate forms of analysis and explains the assumptions that underlie them. It deals with fundamental issues, such as what kinds of data are common in the field of archaeology and what are the goals of various forms of analysis. This accessible textbook lends a refreshing playfulness to an often-humorless subject and will be enjoyed by students and professionals alike. Strategies for Quantitative Research is a concise and readable textbook on the use of statistics in archaeology and a handbook for professionals in the field aimed at answering commonly occurring questions about the goals of analysis and the assumptions of major statistical models. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
