Sunstein Cass R. Title : Republic.com. Cittadini informati o consumatori di informazioni?
Author: Sunstein Cass R.
Publisher: Il Mulino

La personalizzazione dell'informazione risponde sempre più a logiche di marketing, all'individuazione di nicchie di possibili consumatori più che a quelle civiche e politiche della corretta informazione di un'opinione pubblica. Forze centrifughe verso spazi virtuali sempre più frammentati e disconnessi svuotano quel luogo ideale di confronto che è la sfera pubblica, il cuore della democrazia. E come può una società elaborare qualcosa di comune (valori, scelte, visioni del mondo) se ognuno, come al supermercato, può approvvigionarsi di idee come e quanto vuole in una indisturbata solitudine priva di dialogo? L'autore con questo saggio intende 'aprirci gli occhi' su una questione scottante.

Sunstein Cass R. Title : Risk and Reason
Author: Sunstein Cass R.
Publisher: Cambridge Univ Pr

What should be done about airplane safety and terrorism, global warming, polluted water, nuclear power, and genetically engineered food? Decision-makers often respond to temporary fears, and the result is a situation of hysteria and neglect--and unnecessary illness and death. Risk and Reason explains the sources of these problems and explores what can be done about them. It shows how individual thinking and social interactions lead us in foolish directions. Offering sound proposals for social reform, it explains how a more sensible system of risk regulation, embodied in the idea of a 'cost-benefit state,' could save many thousands of lives and many billions of dollars too--and protect the environment in the process. Cass R. Sunstein is the Karl N. Llewellyn Distinguished Service Professor at the University of Chicago. Appointed by President Clinton to serve on the Advisory Committee on the Public Interest Obligations of Television Broadcasters. His many books include Republic.com (Princeton, 2001) and Designing Democracy (Oxford, 2001). He has worked in the United States Department of Justice and advised on law reform and constitution-making in many nations.

Sunstein Cass R. Title : One Case at a Time
Author: Sunstein Cass R.
Publisher: Textstream

Abortion, affirmative action, the 'right to die,' pornography and free speech, homosexuality and sex discrimination: as eagerly as the Supreme Court's rulings on these hot issues are awaited and as intently as they're studied, they never seem to settle anything once and for all. But something is settled in the process--in the incremental approach--as Cass Sunstein shows us in this instructive book.

One of America's preeminent constitutional scholars, Sunstein mounts a defense of the most striking characteristic of modern constitutional law: the inclination to decide one case at a time. Examining various controversies, he shows how--and why--the Court has avoided broad rulings on issues from the legitimacy of affirmative action to the 'right to die,' and in doing so has fostered rather than foreclosed public debate on these difficult topics. He offers an original perspective on the right of free speech and the many novel questions raised by Congress's efforts to regulate violent and sexual materials on new media such as the Internet and cable television. And on the relationship between the Constitution and homosexuality and sex discrimination, he reveals how the Court has tried to ensure against second-class citizenship--and the public expression of contempt for anyone--while leaving a degree of flexibility to the political process.

One Case at a Time also lays out, and celebrates, the remarkable constellation of rights--involving both liberty and equality--that now commands a consensus in American law. An authoritative guide to the Supreme Court, the book offers a new understanding of the American Constitution, and of the relationship between democracy and constitutionalism, and between rights and self-government.

Holmes Stephen; Sunstein Cass R. Title : Il costo dei diritti. Perché la libertà dipende dalle tasse
Author: Holmes Stephen; Sunstein Cass R.
Publisher: Il Mulino

Non è vero che solo i poveri costano. Non è vero, in altre parole, che soltanto i diritti sociali richiedano sforzi finanziari ingenti alla comunità, mentre i cosiddetti 'diritti negativi' sarebbero una sorta di dono di natura, di cui l'individuo si limita a godere senza onere alcuno per la società. Diritti quali il diritto di proprietà, la libertà contrattuale, la libertà di parola e di espressione, di religione, la libertà personale, non si realizzano ad opera esclusivamente del loro titolare. Come potremmo farli valere senza l'intervento pubblico? Senza la protezione fornita dalla comunità, con il denaro pubblico frutto dei tributi di tutti, quei diritti resterebbero diritti di carta.

Holmes Stephen, Sunstein Cass R. Title : The Cost of Rights
Author: Holmes Stephen, Sunstein Cass R.
Publisher: W W Norton & Co Inc

The simple insight that all legally enforceable rights cost money reminds us that freedom is not violated by a government that taxes and spends, but requires it—and requires a citizenry vigilant about how money is allocated. Drawing from these practical, commonsense notions, The Cost of Rights provides a useful corrective to the all-or-nothing feel of much political debate nowadays (The Economist).

Cass R. Sunstein Title : Free Markets and Social Justice
Author: Cass R. Sunstein
Publisher: BERTRAMS PRINT ON DEMAND

The newest work from one of the most preeminent voices writing in the legal/political arena today, this important book presents a new conception of the relationship between free markets and social justice. The work begins with foundations--the appropriate role of existing 'preferences,' the importance of social norms, the question whether human goods are commensurable, and issues of distributional equity. Continuing with rights, the work shows that markets have only a partial but instrumental role in the protection of rights. The book concludes with a discussion on regulation, developing approaches that would promote both economic and democratic goals, especially in the context of risks to life and health.

Free Markets and Social Justice develops seven basic themes during its discussion: the myth of laissez-faire; preference formation and social norms; the contextual character of choice; the importance of fair distribution; the diversity of human goods; how law can shape preferences; and the puzzles of human rationality. As the latest word from an internationally-renowned writer, this work will raise a number of important questions about economic analysis of law in its conventional form.

Sunstein Cass R. Title : Democracy and the Problem of Free Speech
Author: Sunstein Cass R.
Publisher: Textstream

Freedom of speech is one of our greatest legal rights and Cass Sunstein is one of our greatest legal theorists. This book is a must read for anyone who wants to think seriously about the free speech issues facing this generation.--

Akhil Amar, Southmayd Professor, Yale Law School

This is an important book. Beautifully clear and carefully argued, Sunstein's contribution reaches well beyond the confines of academic debate. It will be of interest to any citizen concerned about freedom of speech and the current state of American democracy.--

Joshua Cohen, Massachusetts Institute of Technology

How can our constitutional protection of free speech serve to strengthen democracy? Cass Sunstein challenges conventional answers with a remarkable array of lucid arguments and legal examples. There is no better book on the subject.--

Sunstein Cass R. Title : After the Rights Revolution
Author: Sunstein Cass R.
Publisher: Harvard Univ Pr

In the twentieth century, American society has experienced a 'rights revolution': a commitment by the national government to promote a healthful environment, safe products, freedom from discrimination, and other rights unknown to the founding generation. This development has profoundly affected constitutional democracy by skewing the original understanding of checks and balances, federalism, and individual rights. Cass Sunstein tells us how it is possible to interpret and reform this regulatory state regime in a way that will enhance freedom and welfare while remaining faithful to constitutional commitments.

Sunstein vigorously defends government regulation against Reaganite/Thatcherite attacks based on free-market economics and pre-New Deal principles of private right. Focusing on the important interests in clean air and water, a safe workplace, access to the air waves, and protection against discrimination, he shows that regulatory initiatives have proved far superior to an approach that relies solely on private enterprise. Sunstein grants that some regulatory regimes have failed and calls for reforms that would amount to an American perestroika: a restructuring that embraces the use of government to further democratic goals but that insists on the decentralization and productive potential of private markets.

Sunstein also proposes a theory of interpretation that courts and administrative agencies could use to secure constitutional goals and to improve the operation of regulatory programs. From this theory he seeks to develop a set of principles that would synthesize the modern regulatory state with the basic premises of the American constitutional system. Teachers of law, policymakers and political scientists, economists and historians, and a general audience interested in rights, regulation, and government will find this book an essential addition to their libraries.
