Chapter Four Synthesis, Apperception And The Opacity Of Consciousness: A Nietzschean Reading Of Kant’S A Deduction And Prelude To A Theoretical Account Of The Relation Between The Two Systems Of Reason, Richard Lara
Richard Louis Lara
In the first and fourth speeches of Zarathustra titled "Three Metamorphoses of the Spirit" and “The Despisers Of The Body,” Nietzsche articulates his own views on themes central to Kant’s theoretical philosophy. In so doing, he articulates two systems of reason: consciousness or "little" reason, which he conceptualizes in the same way that Kant conceptualizes theoretical reason, and "the great reason of the body." The goal of this chapter is to present a faithful reading of Kant’s A deduction of the pure a priori categories of the understanding that will serve as the basis of my effort, in subsequent chapters, …
The Normativity Of Law In Law And Economics, Péter Cserne
The Normativity Of Law In Law And Economics, Péter Cserne
Péter Cserne
This paper is about some theoretical and methodological problems of law and economics. I will use game theoretical insights to address an issue which is relevant both for law and economics and legal philosophy: How should a social scientific analysis of law account for the normativity of law, i.e. the non-instrumental reasons for rule-following while retaining the observer’s (explanatory or descriptive) perspective. My goal is to offer a constructive critique of both traditional law and economics scholarship and mainstream analytical legal philosophy in this respect. I will try to find out how law and economics has to account for the …
Review Of Therapeutic Action An Earnest Plea For Irony By Jonathan Lear, Matthew Pianalto
Review Of Therapeutic Action An Earnest Plea For Irony By Jonathan Lear, Matthew Pianalto
Matthew Pianalto
Jonathan Lear begins Therapeutic Action with a question: "How might a conversation fundamentally change the structure of the human psyche?" That is, how could an exchange of words between analyst and analysand effect a cure to neurosis? To answer such questions would be to uncover the therapeutic action of psychoanalysis. While arguing that a deeper understanding of irony and its possibilities is central to the therapeutic action of psychoanalysis, Lear's book is much more than its "earnest plea for irony." It is an invitation to psychoanalysts (and all those involved in psychological counseling) to return to this fundamental question of …
Jacques Derrida And Alain Badiou: Is There A Relation Between Politics And Time?, Antonio Calcagno
Jacques Derrida And Alain Badiou: Is There A Relation Between Politics And Time?, Antonio Calcagno
Antonio Calcagno
This paper argues that though Derrida is correct to bring to the fore the undecidability that is contained in his political notion of the democracy to come, his account does not extend the aporia of undecidable politics far enough. Derrida himself makes evident this gap. Though politics may be structured with undecidability, there are times when direct, decisive and definitive political interventions are required. In his campaign against capital punishment, the blitzing campaigns in Bosnia and Iraq, and in his call for les villes-refuges, Derrida makes decisive appeals which somehow seem to contradict the undecidability he sees as arch-structuring. Alain …

Gandhi And The Ego Ideal, Michele Gibney
Gandhi And The Ego Ideal, Michele Gibney
Michele Gibney
If the individual self is not equal to the subject self and “agency”, as Wimal Dissanayake defines it, is seen as the link between the two: can the agency of Gandhi be described as utilizing the Freudian mirror stage development to overthrow subjectivity? I believe that, in fact, Gandhi’s reaction to British imperialism projects a reflected ego ideal which is used to combat the subjectivity of colonization and create an Indian “self”.
'Mass Delusion' Or 'True Myth'? Pbs Considers The Question Of God, Stephen Asma
'Mass Delusion' Or 'True Myth'? Pbs Considers The Question Of God, Stephen Asma
Stephen T Asma
The Question of God is a new 4-hour miniseries from PBS. It is based on a long-running course taught by Harvard University psychiatry professor Armand Nicholi that compares the biographies and theories of Sigmund Freud, skeptic, and C. S. Lewis, believer. On balance, the miniseries succeeds as an introduction to complex issues.

Shorthand, Syntactic Ellipsis, And The Pragmatic Determinants Of What Is Said, Reinaldo Elugardo, Robert J. Stainton
Robert J. Stainton
Our first aim in this paper is to respond to four novel objections in Jason Stanley's 'Context and Logical Form'. Taken together, those objections attempt to debunk our prior claims that one can perform a genuine speech act by using a sub‐sentential expression—where by 'sub‐sentential expression' we mean an ordinary word or phrase, not embedded in any larger syntactic structure. Our second aim is to make it plausible that, pace Stanley, there really are pragmatic determinants of the literal truth‐conditional content of speech acts. We hope to achieve this second aim precisely by defending the genuineness of sub‐sentential speech acts. …

Review Of Autopsy Of A Suicidal Mind By Edwin S. Shneidman, Matthew Pianalto
Review Of Autopsy Of A Suicidal Mind By Edwin S. Shneidman, Matthew Pianalto
Matthew Pianalto
In any other discipline, a gathering of minds with only half the intellectual prowess and experience of the consultants brought together in Edwin Shneidman's Autopsy of a Suicidal Mind would give reason for a celebration. The very nature of suicidology must make even such a momentous reunion as occurs in this book a somber event. In Autopsy, Shneidman rejoins forces with seven suicide specialists, longtime colleague Norman L. Farberow, with whom Shneidman founded the Los Angeles Suicide Prevention Center (the first center of its kind), and Robert E. Litman, chief psychiatrist at the LASPC, Avery Weisman, John T. Maltsberger, David …

When Are Research Risks Reasonable In Relation To Anticipated Benefits?, Charles Weijer, Paul Miller
When Are Research Risks Reasonable In Relation To Anticipated Benefits?, Charles Weijer, Paul Miller
Charles Weijer
The question "When are research risks reasonable in relation to anticipated benefits?" is at the heart of disputes in the ethics of clinical research. Institutional review boards are often criticized for inconsistent decision-making, a problem that is compounded by a number of contemporary controversies, including the ethics of research involving placebo controls, developing countries, incapable adults and emergency rooms. If this pressing ethical question is to be addressed in a principled way, then a systematic approach to the ethics of risk in research is required. Component analysis provides such a systematic approach.

Healing The War Between The Genders: The Power Of The Soul-Centered Relationship (Book Author, Linda Marks; Book Reviewer, Carroy Ferguson), Carroy U. Ferguson
Carroy U "Cuf" Ferguson, Ph.D.
As humanity seeks to understand its next evolutionary journey and to evolve its consciousness, insightful thinkers and writers have emerged to identify where we must first heal and to provide guidance for how to heal. In her book Healing The War Between The Genders: The Power of the Soul-Centered Relationship, Linda Marks adeptly discusses what she calls a “cultural heart wound” as being at the center of the gender struggle. In this context, the struggle actually transcends heterosexual relationships, gender-role conflicts, and particular one-to-one dynamics per se. As each person has what are often called male and female energies, “the …
The Ethical Analysis Of Risk In Intensive Care Unit Research, Charles Weijer
The Ethical Analysis Of Risk In Intensive Care Unit Research, Charles Weijer
Charles Weijer
Research in the intensive care unit (ICU) is commonly thought to pose 'serious risk' to study participants. This perception may be at the root of a variety of impediments to the conduct of clinical trials in the ICU setting. Component analysis offers a promising approach to the ethical analysis of ICU research. Because clinical trials commonly involve a mixture of study interventions, therapeutic and nontherapeutic procedures must be analyzed separately. Therapeutic procedures must meet the requirement of clinical equipoise. Risks associated with nontherapeutic procedures must be minimized consistent with sound scientific design, and be deemed reasonable in relation to the …
Looking For Answers In All The Wrong Places, Earl Spurgin
Looking For Answers In All The Wrong Places, Earl Spurgin
Earl W. Spurgin
In recent years, many business ethicists have raised problems with the "ethics pays" credo. Despite these problems, many continue to hold it. I argue that support for the credo leads business ethicists away from a potentially fruitful approach found in Hume's moral philosophy. I begin by demonstrating that attempts to support the credo fail because proponents are trying to provide an answer to the "Why be moral?" question that is based on rational self-interest. Then, I show that Hume's sentiments-based moral theory provides an alternative to the credo that points toward a more fruitful approach to business ethics. Along the …

This is an unprecedented volume that brings together J. Hillis Miller, Julia Kristeva, Slavoj Zizek, Ernesto Laclau, Alain Badiou, Nancy Fraser, and other prominent intellectuals from five countries in seven disciplines to provide fresh perspectives on the new configurations of law, justice, and power in the global age.
