Hvem husker ikke advokat Hermansens spontane turnoppvisning på T-banen eller fakiren El Jucans sang og show? Mange minnes også Sving Deg, Luse-Frantz og Homansbyens Dronning fra 40- og 50-tallets Oslo. Byoriginalene er byens små fargeklatter, personer som tør å stå opp mot normer og retningslinjer både når det gjelder antrekk og væremåte. Boka gir deg historien bak kallenavnene og ansiktene. I tillegg til personene som ble presentert i forrige utgave fra 2008, møter vi denne gangen blant annet Blomster-Ole, Appelsin-Herman, Montgomery og Ole-Bjørn.

Boka er en utvidet og gjennomrevidert utgave av boka med samme tittel som kom i 2008.

The Social Security program pays benefits to retired and disabled workers and their family members, and to family members of deceased workers. The Social Security program is financed primarily through payroll taxes that are deposited in the U.S. Treasury and credited to the Social Security trust fund. Any revenues credited to the trust fund in excess of program costs (benefit payments and administrative expenses) are invested in special U.S. government obligations (debt instruments of the U.S. government). This book examines the basics of how the Social Security program is funded and how the Social Security trust fund works.

Intermediate groups- voluntary associations, churches, ethnocultural groups, universities, and more-can both protect threaten individual liberty. The same is true for centralized state action against such groups. This wide-ranging book argues that, both normatively and historically, liberal political thought rests on a deep tension between a rationalist suspicion of intermediate and local group power, and a pluralism favorable toward intermediate group life,and preserving the bulk of its suspicion for the centralizing state. The book studies this tension using tools from the history of political thought, normative political philosophy, law, and social theory. In the process, it retells the history of liberal thought and practice in a way that moves from the birth of intermediacy in the High Middle Ages to the British Pluralists of the twentieth century. In particular it restores centrality to the tradition of ancient constitutionalism and to Montesquieu, arguing that social contract theory's contributions to thedevelopment of liberal thought have been mistaken for the whole tradition. It discusses the real threats to freedom posed both by local group life and by state centralization, the ways in which those threats aggravate each other. Though the state and intermediate groups can check and balance each other in ways that protect freedom, they may also aggravate each other's worst tendencies. Likewise, the elements of liberal thought concerned with the threats from each cannot necessarily be combined into a single satisfactory theory of freedom. While the book frequentlyreconstructs and defends pluralism, it ultimately argues that the tension is irreconcilable and not susceptible of harmonization or synthesis; it must be lived with, not overcome.
