Institutional Pluralism From The Standpoint Of Its Victims: Calling The Question On Indiscriminate (In)Tolerance, Jose M. Gabilondo Jan 2009

Institutional Pluralism From The Standpoint Of Its Victims: Calling The Question On Indiscriminate (In)Tolerance, Jose M. Gabilondo

Faculty Publications

Borrowing from postmodernity, new Right intellectuals have become adept at plucking core terms from the liberal register, stripping away their history and social context, and making them do the conceptual work of backlash. A recent example is the theme of the 2009 annual meeting of the AALS: institutional pluralism. The phrase has a surface resemblance to traditional liberal values but, in truth, acts as a Trojan horse for discrimination projects that many may find troubling. By putting the phrase in its social context, this essay reveals the ideological interests at work in the idea.

Locating Community, Memory And Meaning-Making In The Performative Gap: An Experiment In Aesthetics, Autoethnography, And The Ethic Of The Unfinished, Rebecca M. Kennerly Jan 2009

Locating Community, Memory And Meaning-Making In The Performative Gap: An Experiment In Aesthetics, Autoethnography, And The Ethic Of The Unfinished, Rebecca M. Kennerly

Iowa Journal of Communication

I perform here a complex triangulation of shifting centers of geography, intellect, and memory as I investigate the practice of marking sites of death on the road with a shrine. This essay introduces a close-to-the-bone layer of sound/experience that emerged while in-field and in memory, as I risk revealing what Pollock (2006) calls "going under," a process which "folds back on the researcher-subject, catching her in . . . processes of transformation" (pp.327-328). Following Bowman (2002), I become "lost in my own back-yard" (p.349), as I chase (listen for) the spectral voices of the dead. Accidentally on purpose, my work …

Reclaiming Paul? Reconfiguration As Reclamation In 3 Corinthians, Benjamin L. White Jan 2009

Reclaiming Paul? Reconfiguration As Reclamation In 3 Corinthians, Benjamin L. White

Publications

This article pursues an alternative approach to situating the historical circumstances and rhetorical strategies of the author of 3 Corinthians. Whereas most scholarship on 3 Corinthians has set out to ascertain the specific opponents lurking behind the polemic of the text (Simon Magus, Saturnilus, Marcion, Valentinus, etc.), I believe that this task is futile and that a close reading of the “Paul” constructed by the text’s author pays more fruitful dividends in situating the text. Specifically, I will argue that 3 Corinthians is a late secondcentury proto-orthodox invocation of the “Pastoral” Paul (i.e. the Paul of the Pastoral Epistles), …


Protection Of Languages And Self-Expressions Under Islamic Law, Liaquat Ali Khan Jan 2009

Protection Of Languages And Self-Expressions Under Islamic Law, Liaquat Ali Khan

Florida State University Journal of Transnational Law & Policy

Islamic law recognizes two distinct divine rights, one applying to speech communities and the other to individuals. The divine right to language allows each speech community to preserve and celebrate its native language free of coercion and disrespect from other speech communities. Native languages are the assets of speech communities. Islamic law prohibits coercive degradation of native languages while at the same time it interposes no barriers in learning other languages. Closely related to the right to language is the divine right to individual self-expression or self-determination. Each human being is unique because God, the Master-Artist, shapes each human being …

The “Babe” Vegetarians: Bioethics, Animal Minds And Moral Methodology, Nathan Nobis Jan 2009

The “Babe” Vegetarians: Bioethics, Animal Minds And Moral Methodology, Nathan Nobis

Attitudes Towards Animals Collection

Here I discuss the role the film “Babe” has played in helping people address these challenges and make this moral progress. It is thought that a significant number of young people (mostly girls, now young women) became vegetarians due to their seeing “Babe.” These people are often called “Babe Vegetarians,” influence by what has been called “The Babe Effect.” Many of their stories are found on the internet.


Understanding Norms Without A Theory Of Mind, Kristin Andrews Jan 2009

Understanding Norms Without A Theory Of Mind, Kristin Andrews

Sentience Collection

I argue that having a theory of mind requires having at least implicit knowledge of the norms of the community, and that an implicit understanding of the normative is what drives the development of a theory of mind. This conclusion is defended by two arguments. First I argue that a theory of mind likely did not develop in order to predict behavior, because before individuals can use propositional attitudes to predict behavior, they have to be able to use them in explanations of behavior. Rather, I suggest that the need to explain behavior in terms of reasons is the primary …


Politics Or Metaphysics? On Attributing Psychological Properties To Animals, Kristin Andrews Jan 2009

Politics Or Metaphysics? On Attributing Psychological Properties To Animals, Kristin Andrews

Sentience Collection

Following recent arguments that there is no logical problem with attributing mental or agential states to animals, I address the epistemological problem of how to go about making accurate attributions. I suggest that there is a two-part general method for determining whether a psychological property can be accurately attributed to a member of another species: folk expert opinion and functionality. This method is based on well-known assessments used to attribute mental states to humans who are unable to self-ascribe due to an early stage of development or impairment, and can be used to describe social and emotional development as well …
