Divided into two parts, the book first contains several studies of Bu?ar?s arguments. As Bu?ar applied his system theory to a variety of issues, so too the conglomerate of scholars and issues critically assessed is interdisciplinary, ranging from political science and economics, to law and philosophy, as well as to natural sciences. The contributors and the questions of their essays in the edited volume are as follows. Peter Verovsek (University of Sheffield) examines different branches of Critical Theory and classifies Bu?ar within them. Mark Hamilton (Inter-American Defense College) discusses system dynamics of Bu?ar?s system theory. Ur?ka Velikonja (Georgetown University) applies Bu?ar?s system theory to the question of the ethics, rules, and regulations in financial economics. Finally, Matej Drev (Georgia Institute of Technology) connects Bu?ar to the issue of artificial intelligence and inequality. The second part is the English translation of Bu?ar?s book At A New Crossroads, which addresses the role of ethics in society. Bu?ar normatively redefines national identity as the crux of his novel understanding of ethics. Using system theory, he addresses the problems of globalization and governance, presenting a post-modern synthesis of the logic of free flow of capital and global citizenship, with national and cultural identity. Speaking to contemporary society, he shows how society and ethical life are reproduced. Bu?ar provides the reader with new tools to think about national identity and global politics. Bringing an important work on ethics, government, and identity to an entirely new readership, this book will appeal to a broad academic audience, namely students and practitioners in the fields of economics, social sciences, and humanities. . 606 $aPolitical theory 606 $aEthics 606 $aEurope?Politics and government 606 $aPolitical science 606 $aPublic policy 606 $aPolitical Theory$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911010 606 $aEthics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/E14000 606 $aEuropean Politics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911130 606 $aGovernance and Government$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911220 606 $aPublic Policy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911060 615 0$aPolitical theory. 615 0$aEthics. 615 0$aEurope?Politics and government. 615 0$aPolitical science. 615 0$aPublic policy. 615 14$aPolitical Theory. 615 24$aEthics. 615 24$aEuropean Politics. 615 24$aGovernance and Government. 615 24$aPublic Policy. 676 $a320.01 702 $aKova?$b Igor$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910392743003321 996 $aAt His Crossroad$92518897 997 $aUNINA
