"In this work, one of Latin America's most renowned legal philosophers conducts a comprehensive survey of the ancient Greek understanding of the law, drawing on texts by poets (Hesiod), philosophers (Anaximander), playwrights (Aeschylus and Sophocles), and historians (Herodotus and Thucydides). The book ends with a finely detailed analysis of the relationship between language and reality in Aristotle, and the emergence of the notion of the system and its subsequent introduction into Roman law. The author's in-depth study of all these aspects makes this volume an essential reference for philosophers, jurists, and historians"--

There has been talk for years about the depletion of energy resources in the world. Interestingly, even in 1914, this issue was discussed and one of the American newspapers wrote that the world's oil reserves had been depleted for a maximum of ten years; Later in 1939, the US Department of the Interior announced that there were only 13 years left to run out of oil reserves. Over the past decade, advances in technology have led to more oil being extracted from oil fields, while high oil prices have made it more cost-effective for companies to search for harder-to-reach reserves. While there is still enough oil in known areas, forecasts show that the depletion of global reserves has led to more oil being discovered. Today, new and renewable energy due to its cleanliness and compatibility with the environment, is of special interest in developed countries, and with a comprehensive and long-term planning, we must pay more attention to the positive functions of the use of these energies. Today, experts believe that the most important consequence of continuing to use fossil fuels is disease and environmental problems, and that the use of clean energy can shape a better future for the people of the world, as well as prevent further energy wastage. It is on the rise and also due to the benefits of using clean energy such as solar energy, the industrial and governmental sectors should be the pioneers in using this energy. New energies are expanding rapidly around the world. Cleanliness and cheapness can be considered as the two main indicators of new energy production, as these energies have been able to fill the gaps in fossil fuels in many places due to their high productivity. Energy experts believe that renewable energy should replace conventional energy sources such as oil and gas in the 21st century to reduce the wasteful use of hydrocarbon products and that future energy use depends on a structure in which carbon-free energy sources such as solar energy. Or wind to be used. A way to overcome the energy crisis and ...

It is difficult to estimate the set of reserves that can ultimately be extracted in the world. Here we mean reserves that have the potential to produce energy and can be extracted at economical prices and without unsolvable extraction problems. However, the world's fossil resources are really limited, and if depletion of fossil resources is the norm, the world has considerable time to reduce its heavy dependence on fossil fuels and move to other alternative sources of energy supply. The main problem is that on the other hand, it takes decades to replace the supply of other types of energy. On the other hand, the time must come now to meet the needs and take appropriate action. One of the great advantages of wind energy and solar cells, especially for landlocked countries like Iran, is that they do not need water to generate electricity. Due to the reduction of water resources in recent years and the water conditions of many provinces in the state of water stress and more provinces benefit from the benefits of sunlight, changing the pattern of energy consumption to more use of new energy sources, especially solar energy should be Be on the agenda.

Until recently, the environment was considered a fantasy topic and beyond the basic human needs. And the result has been a vital and universal issue from the ...

Harvard University Professor Joseph Nye first revealed the concept of "soft power" which he describes as an ability of a state to form preferences of other actors of world policy using its attractiveness for them. This is connected with culture, political values, and the foreign policy of the USA. It is becoming obvious that the efficiency of using military forces is substantially limited, and the need for states to increase their influence cannot fully be realized. Ideas that in their essence are close to "soft power", appeared long before American political scientists started the discussion of the concept. It is necessary to pay attention to the works of G. Morgenthau, E. Carr, the Italian Marxist philosopher A.Gramsci, and others. Such concepts include the "concept of seduction" by J.Baudrillard, as well as the "concept of seduction" by Gilles Lipovetsky. Following John Hiring, researchers from different countries have made "soft power" the subject of their research. However, their positions concerning this concept are far from being unambiguous, and sometimes contradictory. An important rethinkingabout "soft power" is the Chinese school of research of this phenomenon. Chinese researchers point to the historical roots of the idea of "soft power", which can be found in the country's history, and that this concept is harmony and naturalness for Chinese society. ; Հարվարդի համալսարանի պրոֆեսոր Ջոզեֆ Նայը նախ բացահայտեց «փափուկ ուժ» հասկացությունը, որով նա հասկանում էր պետական ակտորի ունակությունը՝ ձևավորելու այլ ակտորների նախապատվություները՝ օգտագործելով իր գրավչությունը նրանց աչքերում: Սա վերաբերում էր ԱՄՆ մշակույթին, քաղաքական արժեքներին և արտաքին քաղաքականությանը: Ակնհայտ դարձավ, որ ռազմական ուժի կիրառումը սահմանափակ է, իսկ սեփական ազդեցությունը մեծացնելու անհրաժեշտությունը մնում է ոչ ամբողջովին իրականանալի: «Փափուկ ուժի» նման գաղափարներն ի հայտ եկան ամերիկյան քաղաքագիտության մեջ այդ հայեցակարգի քննարկումները սկսելուց շատ առաջ: Այս իմաստով պետք է նշել Հ. Մորգենթաուի, Է.Քարի, իտալացի մարքսիստ փիլիսոփա Ա. Գրամշիի և այլոց աշխատանքները: Նման հասկացությունները ներառում են Ժ.Բոդրիարի «գայթակղության հայեցակարգը», ինչպես նաև Ժ.Լիպովեցկիի «հրապուրման հայեցակարգը»: Հետևելով Ջ.Նային՝ տարբեր երկրների հետազոտողները «փափուկ ուժը» դարձրեցին իրենց հետազոտության առարկան: Նրանց դիրքորոշումները միանշանակ չեն: Այս երևույթի ուսումնասիրման չինական դպրոցը կարևոր է՝ մատնանշելով «փափուկ ուժի» գաղափարի պատմական արմատները: Այստեղից էլ թեզը չինական հասարակության համար՝ այս հայեցակարգի ներդաշնակության և բնականության մասին: ; Профессор Гарвардского университета Джозеф Най впервые раскрыл концепт «мягкой силы», под которой он понимал способность государства формировать предпочтения других акторов мировой политики, используя собственную привлекательность в их глазах. Это относилось к культуре, политическим ценностям и внешней политике США. Становилось очевидно, что применение военной силы ограничено, а потребность в увеличении своего влияния оказывается не вполне реализованной. Идеи, схожие по своему действию с «мягкой силой», появились задолго до того, как концепт начал обсуждаться в американской политологии. В этом смысле следует отметить работы Г. Моргентау, Э. Карра, итальянского философамарксиста А. Грамши и др. К подобным концепциям можно отнести «концепцию соблазна» Ж. Бодрийяра, а также «концепцию обольщения» Ж. Липовецки. Вслед за Дж. Наем исследователи разных стран сделали «мягкую силу» предметом своего исследования. Их позиции далеко не однозначны. Важной представляется китайская школа изучения данного феномена, указывающая на исторические корни идеи «мягкой силы». Отсюда - тезис о гармоничности, естественности данного концепта для китайского общества.

Δεν παρατίθεται περίληψη στα ελληνικά. ; Leonidas Kallivretakis, The Greek Dictatorship in the conjuncture ofthe 1973 Middle East War The purpose of this article is to explore a widely­held «urban legend¬, namely, that the Papadopoulos' military regime was overthrown in November 1973 by the Americans, because the Greek dictator refused to assist the United States' supply effort in support of Israel during the Arab­Israeli war in October 1973. This assumption holds a prominent position in the wider realm of various conspiracy theories, which seek simplistic explanations of complicated dramatic events. By following in detail the unfolding of events step­by­step, by thoroughly scrutinizing all available material and highlighting the contradictions they reveal, the author concludes that there is no hard evidence supporting the above theory surrounding Papadopoulos' ouster.
