A Plea For Theory In Rethinking Human Rights, Siegfried Van Duffel Jan 2003

A Plea For Theory In Rethinking Human Rights, Siegfried Van Duffel

Siegfried Van Duffel

Edward Rubin has claimed that we should rethink human rights. From his paper, however, it is neither clear why this should be the case, nor what would be involved in rethinking them. I suggest that we need a theory of rights.


Science, Identity, And The Construction Of The Gay Political Narrative, Nancy J. Knauer Jan 2003

Science, Identity, And The Construction Of The Gay Political Narrative, Nancy J. Knauer

Nancy J. Knauer

This Article contends that the current debate over gay civil rights is, at base, a dispute over the nature of same-sex desire. Pro-gay forces advocate an ethnic or identity model of homosexuality based on the conviction that sexual orientation is an immutable, unchosen, and benign characteristic. The assertion that, in essence, gays are "born that way," has produced a gay political narrative that rests on claims of shared identity (i.e., homosexuals are a blameless minority) and arguments of equivalence (i.e., as a blameless minority, homosexuals deserve equal treatment and protection against discrimination). The pro-family counter-narrative is based on a behavioral …


Die Fortwährende Konstruktion Des Computernutzers: Leitbilder In Der Entwicklung Der Mensch-Computer-Kommunikation, Michael Friedewald Jan 2003

Die Fortwährende Konstruktion Des Computernutzers: Leitbilder In Der Entwicklung Der Mensch-Computer-Kommunikation, Michael Friedewald

Michael Friedewald

Der Entwurf interaktiver Computersysteme war vom Ende des 2. Weltkrieges bis zur Gegenwart durch eine Reihe wissenschaftlichen Theorie und bestimmte Vorstellungen über den typischen Nutzer des Computers geprägt. Gemeinsam war den an dieser Entwicklung beteiligten Akteuren die Überzeugung, dass die Frage der Wissensrepräsentation und –vermittlung den Schlüssel eines guten Systementwurfs darstellt. Es wird der Frage nachgegangen, welche Wechselwirkung es zwischen diesen Vorstellungen vom Benutzer eines Informationssystems und den in den vergangenen Jahrzehnten entwickelten Systemen gegeben hat.


Steamboats Of Monmouth County, New Jersey. Lecture Presented At The Atlantic Highlands Historical Society, Atlantic Highlands, Nj, November, 2003., Megan E. Springate Jan 2003

Steamboats Of Monmouth County, New Jersey. Lecture Presented At The Atlantic Highlands Historical Society, Atlantic Highlands, Nj, November, 2003., Megan E. Springate

Megan E. Springate

Steamboats provided a critical commercial link between Monmouth County, New Jersey and New York City from the early nineteenth through the third quarter of the twentieth centuries. Over 200 vessels have been documented as plying Monmouth County's waters, carrying farm goods to market and leisure patrons to the shore. This presentation summarizes the steamboat's history in Monmouth County, and provides several examples of vessels that ran in the area.


Peirce's "Diagrammatic Reasoning" As A Solution Of The Learning Paradox, Michael H.G. Hoffmann Jan 2003

Peirce's "Diagrammatic Reasoning" As A Solution Of The Learning Paradox, Michael H.G. Hoffmann

Michael H.G. Hoffmann

How can we reach “new” levels of knowledge if “new” means that there is something “evolved” that cannot be generated simply by deduction or by induction from what has been given before. The paper’s first goal is to show that two paradigmatic attempts at solving this so-called “learning paradox,” Plato’s apriorism and Aristotle’s inductivism, form two horns of a dilemma: While the inductivist cannot justify any representation of data without assuming a priori given hypotheses, the apriorist cannot justify why a certain application of given ideas is correct without being caught in an infinite regress. The second goal is to …

Material Culture As Memory: Combs And Cremation In Early Medieval Britain, Howard M. R. Williams Jan 2003

Material Culture As Memory: Combs And Cremation In Early Medieval Britain, Howard M. R. Williams

Howard M. R. Williams

This paper argues that mortuary practices can be understood as ‘technologies of remembrance’. The frequent discovery of combs in early medieval cremation burials can be explained by their mnemonic significance in the post-cremation rite. Combs (and other objects used to maintain the body’s surface in life) served to articulate the reconstruction of the deceased’s personhood in death through strategies of remembering and forgetting. This interpretation suggests new perspectives on the elationships between death, material culture and social memory in early medieval Europe.

Two Conceptions Of Relevance, Jonathan Yovel Jan 2003

Two Conceptions Of Relevance, Jonathan Yovel

Jonathan Yovel

Courts use complex modes of relevance judgments in regulating the introduction of information and construction of factual narratives; likewise, common law works both through and around relevance presuppositions in determining doctrine. This study examines different functions of relevance - conceived as different conceptions, at times competing, at times interdependent. The distinctions between these conceptions are arranged on three levels: 1) a normative/"causal" level, arguing for the status of relevance as a requirement for a "meaning-based" conception of entailment and drawing on discussions from relevance logic (RL) and modal logic; 2) a pragmatic/metapragmatic level that explores the ways in which law's …

Consensus, Legitimacy, And The Exercise Of Judgement In Political Deliberation, Cillian Mcbride Jan 2003

Consensus, Legitimacy, And The Exercise Of Judgement In Political Deliberation, Cillian Mcbride

Cillian McBride

Deliberative Democrats have been criticised for promoting an overly consensual style of politics. Agonistic democrats argue that this is because they allow justice to displace ‘the political’ while others make the opposite charge: deliberative democrats pay insufficient attention to justice and the confrontational style of politics which may be necessary to secure social justice. I argue that the deliberative model aims at strengthening democratic legitimacy, not at producing consensus and that it is centrally concerned with stimulating the exercise of citizens’ capacity for judgement. The duty of civility should be regarded as a duty to make impartial judgements, not as …

The Springback: Account Book Binding (German Style), Peter D. Verheyen, Donia Conn Jan 2003

The Springback: Account Book Binding (German Style), Peter D. Verheyen, Donia Conn

Peter D Verheyen

These instructions for making a springback account book are derived from my notes as an apprentice at the Kunstbuchbinderei Klein, with adaptations over time. While my training is in the German tradition, the steps outlined should not be radically different from the English tradition. Although the technique was originally patented in Great Britain in 1799 by John and Joseph Williams,) the authors have found very few descriptions of this method in contemporary English language texts. Alex J. Vaughan describes the technique with great detail in Section II, 'Stationery Binding' of Modern Bookbinding. There is also an historical mention in Bernard …
