    Stephen Darwall

The War Against Authority : From The Crisis Of Legitimacy To A New Social Contract

  • The War Against Authority : From The Crisis Of Legitimacy To A New Social Contract

  • Attribution

    Nicholas N. Kittrie

  • Publication Details

    Book, Johns Hopkins University Press, 1995

  • Description

    The Cold War is over and a New World Order is supposed to have begun. Kittrie shows how the recent scramble between the Republican “Contract with America” and the Democratic “New Covenant” is simply an attempt to reclaim political legitimacy–different and contrasting efforts to recapture the essence of the “American Dream.” Constitution writing and similar efforts at institution and consensus building are vigorously under way throughout the world, clearly pointing to a need to prop up the legitimacy of authority in this pluralistic post-totalitarian era. The War Against Authority is not another fin de siecle documentation of chaos and the world’s woes. As Kittrie reiterates: “Perhaps history is nothing more than the struggle between different concepts of authority.” (automatically summarized from Amazon.com)

The Intimacy Paradox : Personal Authority In The Family System

  • The Intimacy Paradox : Personal Authority In The Family System

  • Attribution

    Donald S. Williamson

  • Publication Details

    Book, Guilford Press, 1991

  • Description

    Williamson’s theory of personal authority in the family system is offered as a synthesizing construct, which reconciles the opposing pulls of differentiation from parents and intimacy with parents. Through hearing the personal narrative of each parent’s life firsthand and exploring the private meanings of significant events and relationships, sons and daughters can both demystify and humanize their parents. The goal is to create a family of former parents and former children who share psychological freedom of action and interaction as adults. (automatically summarized from Amazon.com)
