Beschreibung

Christianity Today Book Award—Politics and Pubilc Life
Efforts at colorblindness and antiracism have not been very effective in addressing racial tensions in the United States. Colorblindness ignores the realities of race and the history of injustice. On the other hand, antiracism centers racial concerns and in so doing often alienates people who need to be involved in the process. Sociologist George Yancey offers an alternative approach to racial relations where all parties contribute and are mutually accountable to one another for societal well-being. He provides empirical rationale for how collaborative conversations in a mutual accountability model can reduce racial division. History and societal complexity mean that different participants may have different kinds of responsibility, but all are involved in seeking the common good for all to thrive. Avoiding unilateral decisions that close off dialogue, Yancey casts a vision for moving beyond racial alienation toward a lifestyle and movement of collaborative conversation and mutuality.

    Combining the ethical clarity of Jonathan Safran Foer’s Eating Animals with the disquieting vision of Alan Weissman’s bestseller The World Without Us, a thought-provoking, entertaining exploration of a future where animal consumption is a thing of the past. 
     
    Though increasing numbers of people know that eating meat is detrimental to our planet’s health, many still can’t be convinced to give up eating meat. But how can we change behavior when common arguments and information aren’t working? 
     Acclaimed anthropologist Roanne Van Voorst changes the dialogue. In Once Upon a Time We Ate Animals, she shifts the focus from the present looking forward to the future looking back—imagining a world in which most no longer use  animals for food, clothing, or other items. By shifting the viewpoint, she offers a clear and compelling vision of what it means to live in a world without meat. 
    A massive shift is already taking place—everything van Voorst covers in this book has already been invented and is being used today by individuals and small organizations worldwide.  
    Hopeful and persuasive, Once Upon a Time We Ate Animals offers a tantalizing vision of what is not only possible but perhaps inevitable.

    "An Enquiry Concerning the Principles of Morals" is a philosophical treatise written by the Scottish philosopher David Hume. The work was first published in 1751 and is one of Hume's most important works, along with "A Treatise of Human Nature" and "Dialogues Concerning Natural Religion". 
    In "An Enquiry Concerning the Principles of Morals", Hume explores the nature and foundation of morality. He argues that moral judgments are not based on reason, but on sentiment, or a natural feeling of approval or disapproval that we have towards certain actions or behaviors. He maintains that moral distinctions are not objective features of the world, but rather the products of human psychology. 
    Hume also argues that morality is not derived from religion or any other external source, but rather is grounded in human nature and the natural sentiments that we have towards others. He emphasizes the importance of sympathy, or the ability to feel and understand the emotions of others, in the development of moral sentiments. 
    Overall, "An Enquiry Concerning the Principles of Morals" is a significant contribution to the field of moral philosophy and continues to be widely studied and debated by scholars today.
