Distributive justice and evolution : towards a science of equality
2015
The paper offers reasons why distributive justice scholars should be interested in evolutionary science: it can help us understand, for example, the genetic and subsistence factors influencing our judgements about fair distributions, where our sense of property may come from, why freedom matters to certain creatures, and why we have fraternal and egalitarian sentiments and unequal societies.

La reflexión sobre las carencias del individualismo y del estatalismo, latentes en la cultura jurídicopolítica contemporánea, no pretende relativizar el papel de los derechos sino tratar de reforzarlo a través de un discurso permeable a otras formulaciones de las exigencias de justicia y a otras concepciones del mundo, con el objetivo de fortalecer la conciencia cívica, el tejido social relacional, la asunción responsable de las propias obligaciones y una idea de universalidad má…

The moment marked a historical breakthrough in the area of interreligious dialogue becoming one of the broadest commented interreligious initiatives of the last decades.

Texte der Lade der Greiffenberger Kaufmannssozietät (1748-1945) aus textlinguistischer Perspektive
2020
Taken out of Silesia at the end of World War II and stored in West Germany, the chest of the Greiffenberg Merchant Confraternity contains books and documents from almost 200 years of the Merchant Confraternity’s activity. These texts form the basis for research into the history of the German language in Silesia, in particular in the field of text linguistics. This paper presents historical, economic, social and cultural conditions that had an impact on the production of these texts and presents the results of the diachronic analysis of “receipt report” as text sub-genre, carried out on the “Book of Receipt Reports” from 1756-1944.
