Beschreibung

In "Freedom and Human Achievement," Jeff Love delivers a passionate, comprehensive treatise on the philosophical underpinnings of liberty and its essential role in human flourishing. Taking readers on a sweeping historical journey from Ancient Greece through the American founding to our present day, Love demonstrates how periods of human advancement have consistently coincided with eras of greater freedom.
 
Love argues that freedom is the primary driver of human achievement, examining how political systems that emphasize individual sovereignty produce prosperity, while collectivist ideologies inevitably lead to stagnation and decline. With meticulous attention to constitutional principles, he dissects modern threats to freedom including government expansion, judicial overreach, excessive taxation, and mounting national debt.
 
Drawing on thinkers from Aristotle and Locke to Jefferson and Madison, "Freedom and Human Achievement" makes a compelling case for limited government and greater personal responsibility. Love doesn't merely diagnose societal problems but offers concrete solutions for restoring America's founding principles, including constitutional amendments, legislative reforms, and civic engagement.
 
At once a scholarly examination of freedom's philosophical basis and an impassioned call to action, this book will challenge readers to reconsider their understanding of liberty's role in human progress and its fragility in the modern world.
 
If you enjoyed "The Road to Serfdom" by F.A. Hayek, "Basic Economics" by Thomas Sowell, and "Liberty Defined" by Ron Paul, you'll love "Freedom and Human Achievement."

    Mill's book Utilitarianism first appeared as a series of three articles published in Fraser's Magazine in 1861 and was reprinted as a single book in 1863. John Stuart Mill was brought up as a Benthamite with the explicit intention that he would carry on the cause of utilitarianism.
    Utilitarianism is a family of consequentialist ethical theories that promotes actions that maximize happiness and well-being for the majority of a population. Although different varieties of utilitarianism admit different characterizations, the basic idea behind all of them is to in some sense maximize utility, which is often defined in terms of well-being or related concepts. Utilitarianism is a version of consequentialism, which states that the consequences of any action are the only standard of right and wrong. Unlike other forms of consequentialism, such as egoism and altruism, utilitarianism considers the interests of all beings equally.
    Famous works of the author John Stuart Mill: A System of Logic, Essays on Some Unsettled Questions of Political Economy, Principles of Political Economy, A Few Words on Non-intervention, On Liberty, Considerations on Representative Government, Utilitarianism, Аutobiography, Three Essays on Religion, Socialism, The Subjection of Women, England and Ireland.

    Awarded by the President of the United States in the name of Congress, the Medal of Honor commemorates those who have shaped our nation's history and continue to inspire its future with their acts of valor, humanity, patriotism, and sacrifice. New Jersey has been credited with ninety-three honors in the state's military history. Robert Augustus Sweeney was the recipient of two non-combatant medals when he jumped into stormy waters to save a fellow sailor twice becoming one of only nineteen double Medal of Honor recipients of all time and the only African American to do so. On the infamous day of December 7, 1941, Peter Tomich, serving on the USS Utah, sprung to action when it became evident his ship would capsize from the two Japanese torpedoes, staying behind to man the fireroom to ensure the boilers were secured to prevent an internal fire and saving countless additional deaths.Author Peter Zablocki reveals the harrowing stories of New Jersey's most valorous moments in the defense of our nation and freedom around the world.

    The Republic is a Socratic dialogue, authored by Plato around 375 BCE, concerning justice, the order and character of the just city-state, and the just man.It is Plato's best-known work, and one of the world's most influential works of philosophy and political theory, both intellectually and historically. 
    In the dialogue, Socrates discusses the meaning of justice and whether the just man is happier than the unjust man with various Athenians and foreigners. He considers the natures of existing regimes and then proposes a series of hypothetical cities in comparison, culminating in Kallipolis , a utopian city-state ruled by a philosopher-king. They also discuss ageing, love, theory of forms, the immortality of the soul, and the role of the philosopher and of poetry in society. The dialogue's setting seems to be the time of the Peloponnesian War
