Ethics In A Capitalistic Society, Stanley I. Garnett

Senior Scholar Papers

The problem of semantics is inherent in any discussion of ethics. The general term "ethics" is itself commonly confused. In addition, systems of ethics must be built upon assumptions, and assumptions are necessarily subject to lengthy debate. These two problems are encountered in my investigation of the ethical practices of the modern business community and to remedy the situation I have taken two steps: the first being an attempt to clarify the meaning of terms used therein;-and the second being a clear description of the assumptions utilized to further my analysis. To satisfy those who would disagree with these assumptions, …

GENERALLY SPEAKING, spring is a non-political season. Certainly, with the snow and ice melting away, the winds of March rattling the windows, and the elm buds burgeoning against the blue sky, political practice and theory seem to belong somewhere else in time and space. But, the news constantly, forceably, shockingly thrusts politics into eye, heart, mind, and viscera every day, whether that news comes from Saigon, Selma, Topeka, or Washington. Your American is first and foremost a political animal. If he isn't he needs to be. John Adams and Tom Jefferson understood this; Henry Thoreau …

Gabriel Marcel, Master Of Mysterious Wisdom., Ronald E. Lane

Philosophy ETDs

The philosophic thought of Gabriel marcel is impossible to categorize. He does indeed employ a phenomenological method of approach to being; and affirms that “today there can be no philosophy worth considering that will not involve an analysis, of a phenomenological type, bearing on the fundamental situation of man.” But his philosophical analysis does not have the character of Husserlian ‘bracketing’ or isolating in eidetic purification. It is an explication of the personal ground of thought, including its relationship to the ‘other’ human or divine, rather than an examination of isolated and purified experiences of consciousness: “By ‘phenomenological analysis’ I …

The Intentionality Structure Of Complementarity, Patrick A. Heelan

Research Resources

In this article Heelan argues that the return to the concrete and empirical implied in Heisenberg's insight on the importance of observables in physics was not, however, in Heisenberg's case, accompanied by a thorough re-thinking of the rationalist presuppositions of classical physics. The effect on Bohr, however, was to lead him to a complete rejection of rationalism and to the adoption of the contrary extreme, empiricism. The profound – though largely implicit – cause of the disagreement between Bohr and Heisenberg as to the correct interpretation of quantum mechanics, was resolved in the sumnler of 1927, by the common acceptance …

Complementarity And The Scientific Method: A Criticism, Patrick A. Heelan

Research Resources

In this chapter "Conplementarity and the Scientific Method" of his Quantum Mechanics and Objectivity, Heelan argues that the philosophy of complementarity, although successful in providing physicists with a common language with which to describe quantum phenomena, also contains a theory about scientific method and about human knowing which is open to criticism. Heelan here criticises the following points arising out of the philosophy of complementarity: psycho-physical parallelism; the view that quantum mechanical properties are to be defined classically; and the perturbation theory of measurement. In the course of the criticism, he elaborates the distinction between two types of concepts …

EVERY laborer, and particularly the editor of such a journal as THE MIDWEST QUARTERLY, is deserving of a little time off. Not only does he need to rest and recruit himself, but more importantly he needs that holiday of the spirit that comes with putting the old routine behind him and sallying into fresh fields, from which, hopefully, he will bring back a rich harvest. There is also, we are bound to add, a very human need of recognition and appreciation, and he will never be more appreciated than when he is missed. Not a …

INITIALLY we had ambitious, even extravagant, plans for this spring number, plans involving a variety of essays from key members of the United States Senate and the House of Representatives as well as a carefully selected covey of candidates for the Republican presidential nomination. Quite obviously, the Congress has been busy of late, although its business is not always as fruitful as many would hope. And that New Hampshire primary on March 10 rather alters calculations regarding the GOP standard-bearer for 1964. In mid-February one of the (then) leading (?) candidates in that primary wrote …
