Sinopsis

Celtic Legal Codes explores the sophisticated legal systems of pre-Norman Ireland and Wales, revealing how customary law governed various aspects of life. These systems emphasized restorative justice and communal responsibility, with kinship playing a crucial role in maintaining social order. Intriguingly, these weren't primitive systems but rather nuanced adaptations to their social and environmental contexts, challenging the notion of a single "Celtic" identity. The book delves into the intricacies of land ownership, highlighting the complexities of communal land tenure within kinship frameworks.

 
The book progresses from establishing the historical context to analyzing major themes such as legal procedures, conflict resolution, and the function of kinship. It uniquely interprets these native laws within their own context, avoiding the common pitfall of viewing them through the lens of later English legal concepts. By examining primary sources like early Irish and Welsh law tracts, supplemented by archaeological findings, Celtic Legal Codes provides a balanced and nuanced account of these understudied legal traditions.

    State of the Union 1986

    The 1986 State of the Union Address delivered February 4, 1986, was delayed following the Space Shuttle Challenger disaster which killed its seven crew members. Reagan reports the U.S. is the economic miracle to which the world once again turns, with record economic growth and inflation cut from over 12 to under 4 percent.  
    But the federal budget system is broken. “We do not face large deficits because American families are undertaxed; we face those deficits because the Federal Government overspends.” “We must proceed with Grace commission reforms against waste.” Tax cuts have done more to “help America's economy break free than any program since John Kennedy's tax cut almost a quarter century ago.” 
    We “must redouble our efforts for freer and fairer trade.” We oppose legislation touted as providing protection that raises prices for us all.  
    We see a renaissance in education and support “vouchers that give parents freedom of choice”. Hundreds of billions of dollars in poverty programs have led to a breakdown of the family and deteriorating schools. As Franklin Roosevelt said, “Welfare is a narcotic, a subtle destroyer of the human spirit.” Welfare “should be judged by how many of its recipients become independent of welfare.” 
    Reagan sees technology as the solution to “the greatest problem of the 20th century. A security shield can one day render nuclear weapons obsolete and free mankind from the prison of nuclear terror.”  
    “The American dream is a song of hope… to discover a new universe inside a tiny silicon chip or a single human cell.” “So, let us go forward to create our world of tomorrow in faith, in unity, and in love. God bless you, and God bless America.”

    1.Relationship without image is love 
    Relationship means action and movement. 
    Without understanding the totality of human relationship we live in conflict, however intimate we may be. 
    When there is knowledge as image in relationship there is conflict. 
    2.The meaning of life pleasure and fear 
    "Is life a mere struggle within and without; laborious, painful, anxious, and then death? 
    What place has thought and what is the structure of thinking? 
    Pleasure is the continuance of an incident which is dead, past. Thought pursues that incident which becomes pleasure. 
    3.Order love and death 
    In our life there is very little order. 
    Most of us conform, which is the very essence of disorder. 
    We conform because we want to succeed inwardly or outwardly; success to us is the most important thing in life. 
    Order and virtue come with the understanding of disorder. 
    4.Religion and meditation 
    What part does religion play in one’s life? 
    How do you know that you or anyone has attained enlightenment or reached the highest form of religious thought? 
    How can a mind which is always in conflict within itself find that which has never been in conflict? 
    In inquiring into meditation, do not follow anybody. 
    Meditation is a daily life in which there is no control whatsoever. 
    When dealing with psychological facts, is the observer different from the thing observed? 
    A certain part of the brain can function efficiently only when it has total order, security. 
    The moment you are aware you are silent it is not silence. 
    Silence is the highest order. 
    In silence, parts of the brain which have not been occupied become totally active.
