A modicum of hope for the authorities and its people.

Here are some excellent examples of the authorities and individuals in authority, showing real and valued human qualities: of empathy, understanding, care and, a real attempt, to see the world, not as an absolutist or Authoritarian but as a realist and a human being. The sickening examples, of, not so much modern deceases but modern despair and lost community values in our neighbors and ourselves. Maybe they were never there -and, as the elite feel, 'they' are the philanthropic members of their societies, the real valuers and deliverers of empathy and rights, which are given to man by man -and taken away similarly. Their general view of the individual could be summed up as the Hobbesian view of man, as consisting of predominately, Appetites and Aversions.

Whilst society is wrapped-up in commodious living in general, driven and consumed by capital interests (pursuit of money and the preoccupation in objects to satisfy one's emotional appetites) -and oneself. This collection of short videos speak far clearer and more succinctly than my attempt to describe the successes and failures of society and the state. These videos expose examples of good authority and a real attempt to be part of the community not just authority over that society.

Defining Libertarianism and its components

This video will help to define Libertarian principles. Those who have a loose understanding of this political perspective will gain a reasonable understanding from Dick Clark. He delivers a well defined group of examples which help to define the perspective's or philosophical elements.

As always it should be noted, whilst this information will give you the principles of Liberal thinking, you will need to read something about the history of the Liberal or Whigs to gain an understanding how this perspective expresses itself in political terms and their position in the political system.

Justice briefly described

As justice is a difficult substance to define; words like fairness, equality, liberty and balance, and in general terms ‘just principles,’ all loosely sit together to define the application of justice. However, many philosophers disagree as to the parameters and content of justice, in relation to the need and use of justice by State and Society, verses the individual. The resulting fact is, that we find many variants and conceptions of the subject. Justice only exit whilst individuals see the need to come together and form a collective, and in turn, form a society. It is at this time that the need for justice comes into effect, in the pursuit of equality of those, who form the collective, and the protection given to all who congregate and exchange one right for another, in a just society all should be equal, for a concept of Justice to exist.

I have put further details with various thinker's views on the subject and taking the model set by John Rawls, an American moral and political philosopher.

Democracy its Birth Place

The death of Socrates by Jacques-Louis David

If you were ask the question, where is the Birth place of the term we hear so often espoused in today's society 'Democracy' and what does it stand for, what would your answer be?

I would be extremely interested in the results to that question, if based on a reasonable group being asked in say a city centre. Well, what I'm going to do over the period ahead, is qualify a number of fundamental objects we today hold in great esteem, whilst possibly being unaware of just how fluid these principals are in reality, as well as their fragility.

Words like: Democracy, Justice, Choice, Freedom, Rights, Fairness, Equality and Liberty, just to name a few, are the values held up as the lamp of enlightenment and sophistication of a State or Country. To do any justice to these ideals, if you'll pardon the pun, these principles of a Just and Fair society, must be considered objectively and pragmatically in the approach to their study. If not, the possibility exists, that their rational qualification may continue to be fluid and so diluted.

I'm hopeful that the historical and philosophical journey we will go on, will be both interesting and entertaining. I had the pleasure of studying this subject 10 years ago and could not of guessed how it would impact on my life and character, and more importantly, my inner nature.

I began the process of formal education in my early thirties. I was self-employed in the construction industry. I had a good reputation for my practical skills, but my lack of formal education left me fumbling on many occasions. I was chastised on a number of occasions by those better educated, particularly in contractual and business terms. So I set about equipping myself with tools I felt necessary to take on the activities of business. With four children, my partner and the obvious home to keep, I set out on the path of education.

There was a statement that really struck a cord with my position at that time, it was "He who does not know his past, can not understand the present, so can not control the future."

Later I would find another candle to comfort me through the journey which was "Sweet hope that follows man's wondering purpose, treads by his side, gladdens his heart, and comforts his old age."

I have been restating those two quotes for more than 10 years now and they continue to mature like a great vintage wine. Getting deeper and with more body by each passing year, always making me smile with the regularity they express themselves in the activity of human intercourse. Click for अन्स्वेर
