The Obama administration recently issued a regulation requiring all employers except religious organizations to include contraceptives in their employees' health insurance.

[Introduction To] Plato, Aristotle, And The Purpose Of Politics, Kevin M. Cherry
[Introduction To] Plato, Aristotle, And The Purpose Of Politics, Kevin M. Cherry
Bookshelf
In this book, Kevin M. Cherry compares the views of Plato and Aristotle about the practice, study, and, above all, the purpose of politics. The first scholar to place Aristotle's Politics in sustained dialogue with Plato's Statesman, Cherry argues that Aristotle rejects the view of politics advanced by Plato's Eleatic Stranger, contrasting them on topics such as the proper categorization of regimes, the usefulness and limitations of the rule of law, and the proper understanding of phronēsis.

I shall take the second route here by arguing that recidivism itself is a kind of criminal offense.

This research extends the role incongruity analysis of employment-related gender bias by investigating the role of dispositional and situational antecedents, specifically political ideology and the salience of cues to the traditional female gender role. The prediction that conservatives would show an anti-female candidate bias and liberals would show a pro-female bias when the traditional female gender role is salient was tested across three experimental studies. In Study 1, 126 participants evaluated a male or a female job applicant with thoughts of the traditional female gender role activated or not. Results showed that when the gender role is salient, political ideology …
