Summary

Witness the prelude to the trial of Socrates as he encounters a self-assured priest outside the Athenian court, sparking a profound interrogation into the definition of piety. Through a series of incisive questions, the dialogue exposes the contradictions inherent in Euthyphro's reliance on traditional religious authority and divine command. The text is a quintessential example of the Socratic method, stripping away assumptions to reveal the difficulty of defining moral concepts. It remains a foundational text for understanding the tension between religious duty and philosophical ethics.

    The term “blowback,” invented by the CIA, refers to the unintended consequences of American actions abroad. In this incisive and controversial book, Chalmers Johnson lays out in vivid detail the dangers faced by our overextended empire, which insists on projecting its military power to every corner of the earth and using American capital and markets to force global economic integration on its own terms. 
    From a case of rape by US servicemen in Okinawa to our role in Asia’s financial crisis, from our early support for Saddam Hussein to our conduct in the Balkans, Johnson reveals the ways in which our misguided policies are planting the seeds of future disaster. 
    In a new edition that addresses recent international events from 9/11 to the war in Iraq, this now classic book remains as prescient and powerful as ever.

    In Euthyphro, Socrates is on his way to the court, where he must defend himself against serious charges brought by religious and political authorities. On the way he meets Euthyphro, an expert on religious matters who has come to prosecute his own father. Socrates questions Euthyphro's claim that religion serves as the basis for ethics. Euthyphro is not able to provide satisfactory answers to Socrates' questions, but their dialogue leaves us with the challenge of making a reasonable connection between ethics and religion.© Agora Publications
