Adam Smith's Lectures On Jurisprudence-Justice, Law, And The Moral Economy, Walter J. Kendall Lll May 2014

Adam Smith's Lectures On Jurisprudence-Justice, Law, And The Moral Economy, Walter J. Kendall Lll

Walter J. Kendall lll

Adam Smith, a leading thinker of the British Enlightenment, is universally known as the author of the Wealth of Nations and an economic theorist. He is less well known as the author of a Theory of Moral Sentiments and an ethicist. And known almost not at all for his Lectures on Jurisprudence or as a legal theorist. This essay looks at Smith’s thought through the lens of his Lectures on Jurisprudence. It highlights the almost paradoxical positions Smith had on self-interest, markets, government, and economic expansion. Obscured by his reputation and these paradoxes are his views on justice, equality, and …

El magnicidio de Jorge Eliecer Gaitán el día 9 de abril de 1948. La presencia de Fidel Castro en las manifestaciones del caudillo y el interés de líder Cubano por fortalecer los lazos de amistad política y social con Colombia. ¿Qué federales de la CIA estuvieron en Colombia en los días previos al 9 de abril de 1948 ? ¿quién fue el realmente culpable del magnicidio del líder liberal ? Por interpretación sociológica: los oficiales usaban armas largas; por pruebas de balística que reposan en el Museo Gaitán nos quedan dudas razonables con respecto al uso exclusivo de una sola …

The Constitution was written to protect and empower all citizens of the United States, including those who are born with Disorders of Sex Development. The medical community, as a whole, is not equipped with the knowledge required to adequately diagnose or treat intersex babies. Intersex simply means that the baby is born with both male and female genitalia. The current method that doctors follow is to choose a sex to assign the baby, and preform irreversible surgery on them without informed consent. Ultimately the intersex babies are mutilated and robbed of many of their fundamental rights; most notably, the right …
