David Novak pursues these aims by presenting a theory of rights founded on the covenant between God and the Jewish people as that covenant is constituted by Scripture and the rabbinic tradition. In doing so, he presents a powerful challenge to prevailing liberal and conservative positions on rights and duties and opens a new chapter in contemporary Jewish political thinking.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor Novak, \"covenantal rights\" are rooted in God's primary rights as creator of the universe and as the elector of a particular community whose members relate to this God as their sovereign. The subsequent rights of individuals and communities flow from God's covenantal promises, which function as irrevocable entitlements. This presents a sharp contrast to the liberal tradition, in which rights flow above all from individuals. It also challenges the conservative idea that duties can take precedence over rights, since Novak argues that there are no covenantal duties that are not backed by correlative rights. Novak explains carefully and clearly how this theory of covenantal rights fits into Jewish tradition and applies to the relationships among God, the covenanted community, and individuals. This work is a profound and provocative contribution to contemporary religious and political theory.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"sb-details\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/david-novak-books\"\u003eDavid Novak\u003c\/a\u003e (all their books in stock)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hardback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublished:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2000\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e Princeton University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9780691026800\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Princeton University Press","offers":[{"title":"Poor Condition — £62.08","offer_id":47912591360177,"sku":"SB-0691026807-C4","price":62.08,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0618\/2669\/5345\/files\/0691026807.jpg?v=1789304519"},{"product_id":"taking-people-with-you-the-only-way-to-make-big-things-happen","title":"Taking People With You: The Only Way to Make Big Things Happen","description":"\u003cp\u003e“AN IMPORTANT BOOK ABOUT MOTIVATION FROM A PROVEN MOTIVATOR.” —JACK WELCH\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYum!
