This work consists of two parts the essay " The Idea of Public Reason Revisited" first published in 1997 & " The Law of Peoples" a major reworking of a much shorter article by the same name published in 1993 Taken together they are the culmination of more than 50 years of reflection on liberalism anon some of the most pressing problems of our times by John Rawls The first essay explains why the constraints of public reason a concept first discussed in " Political Liberalism" (1993) are ones that holders of both religious & non-religious comprehensive views can reasonably endorse it is rawls's most detailed account of how a modern constitutional democracy based on a liberal political conception could & would be viewed as legitimate by reasonable citizens who on religious philosophical or moral grounds do not themselves accept a liberal comprehensive doctrine
- such as that of Kant or Mill or Rawls's own "justice as fairness" presented in "A Theory of Justice" (1971) The second essay extends the idea of a social contract to the society of peoples & lays out the general principles that can & should be accepted by both liberal & non-liberal societies as the standard for regulating their behaviour toward one another In particular it draws a crucial distinction between basic human rights & the rights of each citizen of a liberal constitutional democracy It explores the terms under which such a society may appropriately wage war against an "outlaw society" & discusses the moral grounds for rendering assistance to non-liberal societies burdened by unfavourable political & economic conditions

It's more than six years since the bestselling Lazy Teacher's Handbook was first published & Jim Smith's Lazy Teaching philosophy has developed significantly in that time This new revised edition details Jim's latest thinking on how to be the best lazy but outstanding teacher you can be Every chapter has been revised & some significantly expanded particularly those on planning conducting & reviewing lazy lessons Others have been updated with Jim's latest tried-&-tested techniques which all shift the emphasis away from the teaching & onto the learning Have you ever wondered what would happen in your classroom if you simply stopped teaching? Over the last few decades the demands of countless education initiatives not to mention the pressures good teachers put on themselves have seen so much teaching squeezed into our lessons it must have squeezed out some of the learning Maybe if we spent a little less time teaching & gave students a little more time to learn things would be different Maybe this would allow us more opportunities to build relationships with the class & develop that all-important rapport with the individuals who might just need us most Maybe we could even reclaim our Sunday afternoons from planning & marking? The Lazy Way can help you get more out of your students & at the same time help you to get your life back More than just a series of tricks the Lazy Way is something Jim Smith has put together over years of experience working with all sorts of learners (and teachers) who want their lessons to be different yet still be rewarded with academic success The approach was born out of Jim's frustration with doing a job he loves but being slowly killed by it in the process & as all good psychologists know if necessity is the mother of invention then frustration is the absent father & being knackered the grown-up sibling who just won't leave home If you want your students to learn more & you to work less then The Lazy Teacher's Handbook provides you with all the arguments & evidence you need The new edition is packed full of even more easy-to-apply highly effective strategies (which Ofsted have rated as 'outstanding') all with the seal of approval from real students in real classrooms So next time someone tells you to get a life this book will make it possible Contents include 1 Pass Notes 2 Old Fashioned Teaching with a Lazy Twist 3 The Lazy Approach to Lesson Outcomes 4 Structuring the Lazy Lesson 5 The Prepare Phase
