The 1886 abstract prepared by William H. Hall of a report he would write on the question of irrigation in California.

José María Arguedas, Etnógrafo: Campo Cultural Y Mestizaje, Enrique E. Cortez

World Languages and Literatures Faculty Publications and Presentations

En la actualidad, es imposible trazar una historia de la etnología en el Perú sin tomar en cuenta las contribuciones de José María Arguedas. Sin embargo, la antropología de su época atribuyó escasa importancia a su trabajo. El propósito de este artículo es identificar los motivos del reconocimiento tardío y póstumo del aporte de Arguedas. El argumento central es que el concepto de mestizo manejado por la etnografía de Arguedas implicaba una crítica profunda de las prácticas deshistorizantes de la antropología dominante. Interviniendo de manera decisiva en un debate clave en la historia intelectual latinoamericana, Arguedas cuestionó la ideología hispanista …

Assyriology At The Liberal Arts College: A Report From The Field, Alan Lenzi

College of the Pacific Faculty Presentations

There is an ideal in American Assyriology that active scholars will work at a research university, where they will teach Akkadian and/or Sumerian and lead philological seminars on selected texts from their sub-specialty. Although such an Assyriologist may teach an undergraduate course or two each year, their most important pedagogical efforts will be directed at graduate students. The reality of the academic job market makes this career path available to relatively few scholars. Those who remain in academia often find employment teaching undergraduates in a department of history, religious studies, art history, or comparative literature. The present paper shares my …

Utilitarianism Generalized To Include Animals, Yew-Kwang Ng

Animal Sentience

In response to the seventeen commentaries to date on my target article on reducing animal suffering, I propose that the term “welfarism” (when used pejoratively by animal advocates) should be qualified as “anthropocentric welfarism” so as to leave “welfarism” simpliciter to be used in its generic sense of efforts to improve conditions for those who need it. Welfarism in this benign sense — even in its specific utilitarian form (maximizing the sum total of net welfare) with long-term future effects and effects on others (including animals) appropriately taken into account — should be unobjectionable (even if not considered sufficient by …
