Merumuskan Ulang Jaminan Sosial

Kembali ke Prinsip-prinsip Dasar

Buku ini ditulis untuk membela integritas lembaga jaminan sosial terkait program perlindungan sosial. Dalam buku yang menggugah pemikiran ini, Vladimir Rys berpandangan bahwa kecenderungan ke arah kaburnya peran jaminan sosial dan bantuan sosial harus diperjelas kembali. Sebelum terjadi krisis keuangan baru-baru ini, tren global perlindungan sosial dalam masyarakat industri menunjukkan semakin meningkatnya ketidakterikatan negara untuk mendukung program-program perlindungan sosial melalui dana pajak. Kecenderungan ini menjadikan negara gagal menjamin warganya untuk memenuhi kebutuhan hidup dasar mereka secara layak. Bermodal pengalaman internasional yang panjang di bidang jaminan sosial, Vladimir Rys menganjurkan agar penyelenggaraan jaminan sosial kembali kepada prinsip-prinsip dasar, misalnya dengan mengurangi besaran redistribusi pendapatan, meningkatkan transparansi arus uang, dan mengembangkan saluran informasi bagi warga. Ia juga mengingatkan terkait hal-hal yang mesti dijaga dalam perekonomian nasional untuk membentengi lembaga-lembaga jaminan sosial dari terpaan badai ekonomi di masa depan. Buku ini sangat menarik dan penting terutama bagi para mahasiswa, peneliti, dosen, pembuat kebijakan, aktivis sosial, kalangan profesional yang berurusan dengan lembaga jaminan sosial, serta kelompok masyarakat sipil sekalipun.

Red Light Women of the Rocky Mountains

Throughout the development of the American West, prostitution grew and flourished within the mining camps, small towns, and cities of the nineteenth-century Rocky Mountains. Whether escaping a bad home life, lured by false advertising, or seeking to subsidize their income, thousands of women chose or were forced to enter an industry where they faced segregation and persecution, fines and jailing, and battled the hazards of disease, drug addiction, physical abuse, pregnancy, and abortion. They dreamed of escape through marriage or retirement, but more often found relief only in death. An integral part of western history, the stories of these women continue to fascinate readers and captivate the minds of historians today. Expanding on the research she did for Brothels, Bordellos, and Bad Girls (UNM Press), historian Jan MacKell moves beyond the mining towns of Colorado to explore the history of prostitution in the Rocky Mountain states of Arizona, Idaho, Montana, New Mexico, Utah, and Wyoming. Each state had its share of working girls and madams like Big Nose Kate or Calamity Jane who remain celebrities in the annals of history, but MacKell also includes the stories of lesser-known women whose role in this illicit trade nonetheless shaped our understanding of the American West.

The Importance of Assent

A Theory of Coercion and Dignity

The view that persons are entitled to respect because of their moral agency is commonplace in contemporary moral theory. What exactly this respect entails, however, is far less uncontroversial. In this book, Van der Rijt argues powerfully that this respect for persons’ moral agency must also encompass respect for their subjective moral judgments – even when these judgments can be shown to be fundamentally flawed. Van der Rijt scrutinises the role persons’ subjective moral judgments play within the context of coercion and domination. His fresh, original analysis of Kant’s third formulation of the Categorical Imperative reveals how these judgments are intimately connected to a person’s dignity. The result is an insightful new account of coercion, a novel Kantian reformulation of the republican notion of non-domination and a compelling, innovative argument in favour of retributive justice. "In this admirably clear and insightful work, Van der Rijt develops an original account of coercion and dignity. On the basis of his analysis of the relation between these two concepts, he also provides an intriguing new angle on the nature of republicanism. I recommend this book to anyone interested in freedom and power and their roles in normative political theory." Ian Carter - University of Pavia "In this carefully argued and original study Jan-Willem van der Rijt offers an analysis of coercion, a broadly Kantian argument that coercion is an affront to dignity, and an illuminating contrast with Philip Pettit's republicanism. A most welcome contribution." Thomas E. Hill, Jr. - University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill "Jan-Willem van der Rijt has written a well argued, original book that will prove to be extremely helpful for the philosophical inquiry of the relationship between coercion and human dignity as well as for the assessment of republicanism and its consequences." Ralf Stoecker - University of Potsdam

The soldier in The Soldier I would also much prefer that the enemy general just
rounded up his troops and departed, leaving him in possession of the hilltop; and
in Chess B would much prefer A left him another option, but this does not make it
a case of coercion.27 Zimmerman's proposed account of coercion is an attempt
to develop a non-moralised account that pays attention to both the role of the
coercer and the situation of the coerced. It runs into problems, however, because

The SAGE Handbook of Social Marketing

For the first time, this benchmark handbook brings together a systematic framework and state-of-the-art thinking to provide complete coverage of the social marketing discipline. It presents a major retrospective and prospective overview of social marketing, helping to define and shape its current and future developments by: - examining the defining elements of social marketing, their intellectual origins, evolution, current status and direction of travel; - discussing how these have been used in practice, emphasising emerging areas and recent innovations; and - setting the agenda for future research and development in the discipline. For academics, this book will fill the gap in comprehensive social marketing literature, while being of interest to policymakers and post-graduate marketing and health studies students alike as it explores the idea that tools used to market fast-moving consumer goods and financial services can also be applied to pressing social problems.
