Come Spy The Friendly Skies, Ann Florini
Come Spy The Friendly Skies, Ann Florini
Research Collection School of Social Sciences
Discusses support for Open Skies, a 1955 proposal made by President Dwight Eisenhower and recently resuscitated by President George Bush. The proposal would allow the super powers to make unrestricted flights over each other's territory on short notice
Remote Sensing And Diplomacy, Ann Florini
Remote Sensing And Diplomacy, Ann Florini
Research Collection School of Social Sciences
The advent of a variety of commercial and national remote-sensing satellites has eliminated a long-standing superpower monopoly on a key source of information about global events. As these systems proliferate, it will become increasingly difficult to maintain secrecy about certain sensitive activities. Nations other than the superpowers will be able independently to verify compliance with arms control accords, and to monitor global “hot spots.” These new capabilities both reflect and contribute to an inevitable diffusion of power among nations. Although there will be adjustment costs, particularly for the superpowers, the enhanced global transparency is likely to promote global stability and …

Discourse And Perspective In Daoism: A Linguistic Interpretation Of Ziran, William A. Callahan
Research Collection School of Social Sciences
In Chinese philosophical literature, the term zirana is generally rendered as "spontaneity," "natural," or "self-so" by both Chinese and Western trans- lators. I think that these translations not only miss the point being made in the texts, but actually serve to obscure it

The Opening Skies: Third-Party Imaging Satellites And U.S. Security, Ann Florini
The Opening Skies: Third-Party Imaging Satellites And U.S. Security, Ann Florini
Research Collection School of Social Sciences
Earth observation satellites, long a mainstay of U.S. intelligence-gathering, are now presenting new challenges for U.S. national security. The United States and the Soviet Union have long since reconciled themselves to being spied on by each other from space. Now, however, the advent of imaging satellite systems owned and operated by a variety of third parties, including governments other than the superpowers (France, Canada, the European Space Agency, India, and China) and private companies, is raising new concerns for U.S. peacetime foreign relations and military activities, and for crisis management and war- time operations. These new satellites, primarily civilian remote-sensing …

Conservatism, Liberalism And Ideology, Chandran Kukathas
Research Collection School of Social Sciences
All societies are more or less complex systems of rules, of symbols andsigns directing and constraining individual behavior. The task of thesocial theorist is to analyze and uncover what order may underlie suchstructures. In this regard he faces at least two major problems. First, hehas to determine how far the rules or norms which govern human action define the distribution of power, responsibility and resources, andso determine the relative value placed upon such goods as education, art and scientific inquiry, and how far the existing structure of distribution of power and resources is itself responsible for the prevalence ofparticular rules. …
Does Capitalism Infringe Property Rights: A Reply To Peter Morriss, Chandran Kukathas
Does Capitalism Infringe Property Rights: A Reply To Peter Morriss, Chandran Kukathas
Research Collection School of Social Sciences
In a research note on 'How Capitalism Infringes Property Rights' {PoliticalStudies, XXXI (1983), pp. 656-61), Peter Morriss attempts to demonstratethat a Nozickian version of rights theory is incompatible with that account ofcapitalism which emphasizes the importance (and value) of entrepreneurialrisk-taking and entrepreneurial failure. Because bankruptcy is an acceptedconsequence of entrepreneurial failure, capitalism, which condonesbankruptcy, in fact condones the violations of the rights of creditors. Thusthose who, like Nozick, defend property rights as sacred and inviolable, 'shouldbe in the vanguard of capitalism's opponents' (p. 657) Since the rights-basedargument for capitalism is that rights can never be legitimately violated, 'oncethe rights theorist …
