![]() Kant and the Problem of Knowledge: Rethinking the Contemporary World by Luigi Caranti and Alessandro Pinzani English | July 18, 2022 | ISBN: 0367903164 | 150 pages | PDF | 3 MB This book examines Kant's contributions to the theory of knowledge and studies how his writings can be applied to address contemporary epistemological issues. The volume delves into the Kantian ideas of transcendental idealism, space, naturalism, epistemic normativity, communication, and systematic unity. The essays in the volume study Kant's theories from a fresh perspective and offer new arguments for assenting that knowledge cannot account for itself without acknowledging the fundamental role of the cognitive subject. In doing so, they suggest that we reconsider Kant's views as a powerful alternative to naturalism. ![]() Kama Sutra Sex Positions: The Best Manual To Spice Up Your Sexual Life. by Amy Lords English | 2021 | ISBN: N/A | ASIN: B08YX29GCF | 93 pages | EPUB | 2.30 Mb Would you like to have a proven guide that can teach you numerous tips & tricks to revive and spice up your sexual activity, even if you are an insecure or anxious person? ![]() Justice and International Law in Meiji Japan: The María Luz Incident and the Dawn of Modernity by Giorgio Fabio Colombo English | February 10, 2023 | ISBN: 1032249021 | 124 pages | PDF | 1,5 MB This book carries out a comprehensive analysis of the María Luz incident, a truly significant episode in Japanese and world history, from a legal perspective. In July 1872, the María Luz, a barque flying the Peruvian flag, carried Chinese indentured servants from Macau to Peru. After the ship stopped for repairs in Kanagawa Bay, a number of legal issues arose that were destined to change the perception and use of the law in Japan forever. The case had a tremendous impact on the collective imagination, both Japanese and international: it is one of the first occurrences in which an Asian country decided to resist the pressure of a Western nation, and responded using the most refined tools of domestic and international law. Moreover, the final outcome of the case (arbitration in front of the Czar of Russia) marks the debut of Japan on the stage of international arbitration. While historians have written widely on the subject, the legal importance of this event has been relatively neglected. This book uses the case to explore the technical legal issues Japan was facing in its transition from pre-modernity to modernity. These include unequal treaties, extraterritoriality clauses, the need to establish an updated judicial system, and a delicate balance between asserting sovereignty and resorting to diplomacy in solving disputes involving foreigners. Based on original documents, this book is an invaluable resource for researchers and academics in the fields of legal history, dispute resolution, international law, Japanese history and Asian studies. ![]() Join the Zero-Trust Network Today!: Improve your online protection while simplifying your daily digital life by Henri Pidault English | 2022 | ISBN: N/A | ASIN: B0BR1NFDM9 | 121 pages | PDF | 0.58 Mb Zero-Trust Network has become one of the most used buzzwords in Cybersecurity.
