  • Law and Order
    THE HAMLYN LECTURES Thirty-seventh series Law and Order Ralf Dahrendorf K.B.E., F.B.A. STEVENS Law and Order by Ralf Dahrendorf K.B.E., F.B.A. Professor of Social Science in the University of Constance; formerly Director of the London School of Economics In this book, based on his 1985 Hamlyn Lectures, Professor Ralf Dahrendorf considers the fundamental questions posed for the social order of free countries by the decline in respect for the law. Taking as his point of departure the terrors of our streets and the riots in our football grounds, Professor Dahrendorf discusses the implication for social order and liberty of such issues as unemployment, the cracks in the party system and the growing disorientation of the young. There are four major themes in the book— • The Road to Anomia—crime statistics are but the most dramatic symptoms of a loosening of social ties and norms. • Seeking Rousseau, Finding Hobbes—a widespread dream of goodness has resulted in the dismantling of some of the institutions designed to protect us from badness. • The Struggle for the Social Contract—underlying social changes have led from the class struggle to conflicts about the boundaries of society. • Society and Liberty—most reactions to the new condition involve threats to liberty—we need to reassert the links between law, order and liberty. Professor Dahrendorf has had a most distinguished career, both in his native Germany and in the United Kingdom. In Law and Order he offers a lively and stimulating analysis of a topic of vital importance in the life of every citizen.

    D6192 DR. STRANGELOVE (USA, 1964) (Other titles: Dr. [i.e. Docteur] Folamour; Dottor Stranamore) Credits: director, Stanley Kubrick ; writers, Stanley Kubrick, Terry Southern, Peter George. Cast: Peter Sellers, George C. Scott, Sterling Hayden, Keenan Wynn. Summary: War/science fiction/comedy set in the contemporary U.S. A satire in which the President (Sellers) and his military advisers struggle ineptly to avert a holocaust after two psychotic generals - U.S. Air Force Commander Jack D. Ripper (Hayden) and Chief of Staff "Buck" Turgidson (Scott) - trigger an ingenious, irrevocable scheme to launch a nuclear attack on the Soviet Union because they fear the Russians are poisoning the water supply in the United States. The brains behind the scheme belong to Dr. Strangelove (also Sellers), a wheel-chair bound nuclear scientist who has bizarre ideas about mankind's future. Identified as a Vietnam War film by Robert Cumbow in Vietnam War films: “…this black-comic slap at military-political thinking and warning of the perils of military brinksmanship is an accidentally appropriate beginning to what became known as the Vietnam Era.” Adair, Gilbert.
