Reflections on consciousness society and values may take the individual through myriad of theoretical considerations ranging from purely speculative to the concrete and substantially observable. Such reflections are justified from purely phenomenological perspective and/or from empiricistic and quasi scientific standpoint. Whether consciousness as a property of matter as a property of protoplasm as learning as metaphysical presupposition as emergent evolution as property of behaviour or even as a metaphor it keeps finding place in philosophical and non philosophical discussions. The present volume the result of a seminar on Consciousness Society and Values is a representation (of almost a fractal kind) that is available in the larger debate on the theme. The discussions on consciousness do not immediately bring the normative dimension it does surface at the societal level namely as society having norms. But a full and detailed discussion of the normative aspect of consciousness is possible in juxtaposing consciousness and values. This volume attempts to bring to the forefront the normative and interdisciplinary domains of consciousness. The volume presents papers that deal with consciousness as manifested in the conscious experience brain independent or otherwise and methodologically the contributions represent both the analytic and phenomenological approach on the one hand and an attempt to go beyond the exclusive approaches on the other. Scholarly contributions that deal with consciousness as embodied in one's introspection and reflected in social and moral values constitute the next set of papers. Studies that reflect on consciousness as expressed in collective consciousness as well as resonated in the communities and specific groups find a substantial space in the volume. Studies of moral values reflected both in the philosophical and scientific consciousness of mankind both from the Indian as well as western perspective constitute the last set of papers of the present volume. 310 pp.

The present volume which is a result of a seminar deals with only some issues and debates on the subject and hence does not claim to be a comprehensive compendium of human rights issues in India But several issues have been raised in the volume that at one level are conceptual and at another are specific and applicatory Theoretical foundations of human rights are almost at the centre of all articles contained in the volume This volume is likely to be of interest to research as well as general public interested in human rights discourse and practice in India 400 pp.

This volume on Indian Christianity represents the unique character of Christian belief systems and its practice in the Indian context reflected in the divergent cultural and ethnic expressions that have been theologically justified by various individuals and groups representing diverse Christian denominations. The uniqueness of Christian faith and practice lies in its claim that the religion is based upon love. In a comparative study of religions it is never possible to make such claim in relation to other religions. What is pointed out here is that Christianity in genesis and practice makes love its central reality. The shift that occurred with the message of Jesus vis a vis the message of the old testament is best described in terms of the shift from God of Justice to God of Love as preached by Jesus. Another distinguishing mark of Christian faith and practice is the emphasis on Jesus of Nazareth as a historical person. Besides depending on the references to non biblical texts to authenticate the historicity of Jesus Christians in the later part of the nineteenth and early twentieth century have undertaken critical inquiry into the reliability of the biblical texts composition of the books etc. which gave rise to a distinct method of hermeneutics/exegesis. Most papers in this volume have either commitment to historicity of Jesus or rely upon exegetical/hermeneutical method while establishing the truth. The papers in this volume deal with four different themes the historical the conceptual the theological and the social. As a historical contribution the papers reflect on early Christianity both world wide and in India and spread of Christianity in various parts of the country. As a conceptual contribution the papers reflect on the unique character of Indian Christianity which has its genesis in Indian culture and has retained many of its elements while at the same time asserting its universal character. At the theological level the papers deal with theological aspects of Indian Christianity particularly in the context of Christianity's interaction with other faiths. And finally at the social level.

Zustand: Nuevo. Passado o tempo das revoluções, em que a brutalidade do sangue derramado era o próprio sustento das mudanças [.] estamos a viver uma verdadeira revolução cultural, que é insidiosa, mas persistente e com não menor profundidade. Muitas decisões, com fortíssimas implicações sociais, pessoais e até civilizacionais, são tomadas sem uma reflexão consistente que mobilize a inteligência e a cultura nos limites do possível. Vivemos uma inundação de um relativismo frequentemente imediatista, aceite tantas vezes por inércia ou incapacidade de produzir pensamento. Surgem novas ideologias que rapidamente se tornam moda como que preenchendo um vácuo em tantos que, na correria barulhenta, deixam atrás de si e dentro de si um rasto de quase nada.[.]A ética, mais ainda que o direito que ela própria devia inspirar, tem de continuar a ser o alicerce fundador da cidade. A ética, tantas vezes arredada das decisões, tem de ser convocada sempre. Precisamos de parar. Precisamos de silêncio que permita ouvir a voz do pensa-mento. Este livro é um apelo e um apego lucidez.
