The historiography of physics has reached a great degree of maturity and sophistication, providing many avenues to consider the making of science from a historical perspective. However, the big picture of the making of physics is characterized by a predominant narrative focused on a conception of disciplinary formation through leadership transfers in research among France, Germany, and Britain. This focus has provided the history of physics with a periodization, a geography, and a fundamental goal commonly considered to be conceptual and theoretical unification. In this paper, I suggest the interest of reassessing this picture by analyzing the temporal, national, and epistemological viewpoint from which it is written. I use for this purpose an exemplary case study: Adolphe Ganot’s physics textbooks in France and their translation by Edmund Atkinson in England. In this context, I suggest future avenues for the study of the making of physics as a discipline, which consider the canonical role of textbooks in disciplinary formation beyond the Kuhnian paradigm.

The article revolves around the history of upbringing in Poland as a science discipline. The first historical-pedagogical works appeared in the Renaissance and were continued in Age of Enlightenment. However, it was not until the-19th century when a discipline called ‘history of upbringing’ was created. Its development, by East European standards, took place in difficult social and political circumstances. Poland, at that time annexed by Russia, Prussia and Austria, did not enjoy conditions conducive to scientific development. The annexation was counterbalanced by actions instigated by cultural, educational and scientific institutions. As a result, historical science could develop despite the political situation and the financial shortcomings. Introduction of pedagogy and history of upbringing at the Krakow and Lvov Universities was important to the development of the history of upbringing. Antoni Karbownik’s post-doctoral degree in the history of upbringing obtained in 1905 from the Jagiellonian University and post-doctoral degrees in pedagogy (also the Jagiellonian University) awarded to Leon Kulczyński, Euzebiusz Czerkawski, Aleksander Skórski, Antoni Danysz and Bolesław Mańkowski (Lvov University) were breakthroughs in the history of upbringing. For the areas of study to become disciplines of science, they had to be defined, including their research object and the methodological basis. Władysław Seredyński Franciszek Majchrowicz, Antoni Karbowiak and Antoni Danysz adopted a position on the subject. In the late 19th and the early 20th centuries the history of upbringing was perceived as a discipline of science related to history with respect to the ,methodology and with pedagogy with respect to the content, with its own research, terminology, sources and academic teachers. The history of education was officially a part of culture. In this context, educational matters should be viewed.

Full textAbstract:
This article addresses the question of what might constitute an exegesis for a higher degree by research in journalism, and briefly canvasses issues for journalism as a disciplinary research practice. It starts by considering the craft/profession/discipline dichotomies to clarify the sort of journalism that might qualify as research, typically but not necessarily long form and/or investigative. It identifies the three core elements of the exegesis as a literature review, an exposition of the methodology and an evaluation of the success of the journalism component of the project in answering the research question. It notes that all journalism, like history and other humanities disciplines, is necessarily interdisciplinary, and therefore the journalistic methodology should interface with that of the cognate discipline. It argues that the singularity and value of journalism as a research practice lie in its combination of a reflexive empirical focus, a focus on contemporary phenomena and an intense engagement with the politics of knowledge. It suggests that meta-theoretical debates about reflexivity, space, time and fields are strongly applicable to methodological debates in journalism.

It has not been easy for those in the relatively new field of international relations to find an intellectual niche, and a great deal of ink has been spilled in debates about the nature, sources and role of the discipline. The most basic area of the debate is between the largely British-based historical traditions and the North American behaviourist and ‘scientific’ schools. No doubt many international historians have winced at the vague phrase ‘history shows us that...’, which still appears in some textbooks. And no doubt international relations theorists have despaired of international history monographs in which the author appears to fail to draw any general conclusions after years of painstaking study in the archives. In institutions of higher education the professionals continually struggle to get the balance right between the different elements of an international relations degree, and the paucity of departments devoted solely to international relations is witness to the still ambiguous place of the discipline in the academic world. despite unrelenting student demand—but it also shows that the discipline is very much alive, vigorous, developing and innovative. It is also fairly obvious that intellectual disciplines do not have to be mutually exclusive, and perhaps one of the closest, even symbiotic, relationships is the key one between the study of international history and international relations, particularly foreign policy analysis.

Full textAbstract:
Public history curricula must prepare students for a reflective approach to public historical practice and introduce students to different models of practice. By teaching reflective practice techniques through concrete components assembled in linked course assignments, internships, and capstone projects, programs educate students to become history practitioners. A distinct, robust body of public historical knowledge and reflective practice constitutes a public history degree. Public history programs, as professionally oriented programs, prepare students in the high-order practice of the discipline, grounded in reflective practice techniques appropriate to applied history.

Secondary education is one key area in which academic disciplines build their identity and legitimacy in the public realm. The public image of a science is, of course, constructed by a variety of means and on different platforms, including the generalist media and the lively industry of scientific popularization. However, the school occupies a unique role in representations of science because of its greater degree of formal continuity with the academic environment. The successful institutionalization and maintenance of any discipline depends on it taking root, in some form at least, in the system of public instruction. Because education both fosters and depends on disciplinary reproduction, the concrete shape that school subjects take is of great consequence to the long-term development of related sciences.

The growth in the study of church history in China is one outcome of Deng Xiaoping's policy of ‘reform and opening’, as well as a result of increasing exchanges of scholars and ideas between China and the west during recent years. Since the 1980s Chinese scholars have to a great degree abandoned the Marxist interpretative framework, and gradually developed their own interpretations and methodologies for the study of church history. In consequence, academic studies in the 1990s displayed a fair, honest and objective character which marked the process of maturation in the development of church history as a discipline. In this process Professor Yu Ke played an important role, of inheriting the past and ushering in the future as the real founder of the discipline in China.

Full textAbstract:
The aim of the research is to determine the degree of influence of semantic diffuseness on the strength of the Art History terminology system. This paper examines topical issues of Art History. At the moment, the development of diffuseness of Art History terms can lead to the erosion of the Art History terminology system’s borders and even to the loss of the scholarly style of the language of the entire discipline. In this study, the following linguistic methods are used: semantic analysis, definitional analysis, contextual analysis, as well as elements of semasiological and cognitive analysis. The article reveals the specificity of semantic diffuseness, the reasons for diffuseness; violation of the consequences of the development of diffuseness in the terminology and terminological system of Art History. Scientific novelty of the paper lies in identifying ways to strengthen and structure the terminology system of Art History, taking into account the development of diffuseness in the Art History terminology. As a result, the difference between diffuse Art History terms and diffuse terms related to the terminological systems of other scientific disciplines was revealed, the difference between diffuse Art History terms and lexical units of general literary language was established, and linguistic criteria that allow diffuse terms to function in the Art History terminology system without the threat of blurring the boundaries of the Art History terminology system were highlighted.

In this study, I consider the status of the academic discipline of entrepreneurship as represented in refereed journal articles and citations in the Web of Science database within a broad philosophical framework, developed for this investigative purpose. This dissertation firstly explores an understanding of knowledge as offered by French social theorist, Michael Foucault, identifying two forms of knowledge. Using Foucault’s distinctions, I develop models that position savoir and connaissance knowledge, which I define as practical applications of understanding and academic orientations of explaining, in relation to disciplines and discourses. The strategic apparatus of the episteme is included in my models as a discipline-based method of determining the acceptability of knowledge into the discipline, incorporating the varied roles of gate-keepers, intellectuals and other participants into the models. The roles of epistemology and ontology are discussed and included in the models. Further, drawing on the works of German philosopher, Martin Heidegger, I introduce the concept of an ontological test as a possible means to consider whether an academic discipline clearly understands its ‘meaning of being’ or, alternatively, could be considered to have passed Foucault’s point of epistemologization and be termed a ‘dubious discipline’. Academic thinking on entrepreneurship has come under an array of criticism from within the discipline, including criticism as to a perceived lack of objectivity. The models developed in this dissertation are applied to the discipline of entrepreneurship in order to better understand the development of the discipline of entrepreneurship and the reasons for this criticism. Using the episteme of the Web of Science database, I apply citation analysis to identify those articles and texts which are considered within the entrepreneurship discipline to have the highest gravitas. These high gravitas articles are used to create an archaeological representation or aliran that illustrates the development of the discipline over time and the ontological development of sub-aliran. This aliran is a phenomenological representation of the discipline based upon the episteme to depict the episteme ‘as it is’. This representation is hermeneutically interpreted to discern the development of various sub-aliran, and identify the possible influence of gate keepers with high gravitas in such development. Based upon my survey of high gravitas articles from the aliran, I found there was a general exclusion of practitioner both as an audience for and as a source of savoir knowledge. Admittedly this finding could well be attributed to the nature of the episteme selected for the research. The exception to this general finding was in the Venture Capital sub-aliran. Further findings indicated an apparent feature of the aliran was a higher than expected level of demarcation between the organization and the firm. This demarcation had several features including an increasing trend towards learning by the organization as applied to entrepreneurship. Firms were not perceived to engage in learning but did engage in new ventures and undertook innovation. These functions were not indicated within the aliran to be part of the functions of the organization. Innovation was also not shown to be an activity conducted by individuals but was a preserve of the firm. These findings are consistent with the political structure of the Academy of Management’s Entrepreneurship Division and indicate the influence this body likely has on the discipline. In some instances, as might be expected, there was an overt level of construction of some sub-aliran by those with high gravitas in the discipline. This was most apparent in endeavours to add ‘corporate’ nominations to entrepreneurship, innovation and venturing. In the case of corporate entrepreneurship, such overt construction was perceived to be less than successful. However, the changing orientation offered by such construction is seen to offer a new direction to entrepreneurship which may be realized in the fledgling Strategic Entrepreneurship sub-aliran. Some sub-aliran observed was considered to be more introverted due to restraints imposed by the political structuring of the discipline. While the discipline of entrepreneurship may not to be able to pass Heidegger’s ontological test and could be considered a dubious discipline (doubtless like so many others), this finding should not be deemed to be unduly negative. As with Gadamer’s rehabilitation of prejudice, the term dubious could be rehabilitated to be positive and encourage moves towards greater objectivity, or at least greater rigour, within the discipline of entrepreneurship.

Trata-se de pesquisa de mestrado, com o objetivo geral localizar, identificar, reunir, selecionar, sistematizar, analisar e interpretar aspectos da disciplina de Didática no Curso Normal do Instituto Superior de Educação da cidade de Garça-SP (2003-2006). Tal formulação se originou da crença de que, as disciplinas escolares constituem corpos de saberes que elaborados, se tornam próprios para o estudo, a aprendizagem, e por meio da história das disciplinas escolares poderemos perceber a materialização da produção do conhecimento nas instituições escolares. Assim, se justifica a pesquisa cujos resultados ora apresento, centrado na história da disciplina Didática, no extinto Curso Normal Superior do Instituto Superior de Educação de Garça-SP (2003-2006), o qual faz parte de uma política de formação de professores pós LDB 9394/96. O método de análise e de interpretação dos dados e informações privilegiado é o dos “aspectos da configuração textual”, segundo Magnani (1993; 1997) /Mortatti (2000), baseado nos procedimentos de localização, identificação, recuperação, reunião, seleção, ordenação, sistematização e análise do corpus documental. O referencial teórico que subsidiou a análise dos dados e informações obtidos foi constituído pelas formulações de Chervel (1990) sobre o que esse pesquisador denomina de finalidades de objetivo e de finalidades reais, as quais fundamentam os saberes e permitem que eles se materializem nas instituições, por meio de todos os seus processos, dentre os quais, as disciplinas escolares e ou acadêmicas. Dentre as considerações finais tem-se que a as disciplinas de Didática deveria ter assumido no Curso Normal Superior de Garça, segundo o documento da instituição, papel relevante, ao lado da Pesquisa e Prática de Ensino e do Estágio Curricular Supervisionado como elementos integradores dos eixos curriculares. Entretanto, a pesquisa desenvolvida evidenciou que isso ficou apenas nas tentativas.
It is master's research, with the overall objective to locate, identify, gather, select, organize, analyze and interpret aspects of didactics of discipline in the Ordinary Course of the School of Education of the city of Garça SP (2003-2006). Such a formulation stemmed from the belief that school subjects are of knowledge that developed bodies become fit for study, learning, and through the history of school subjects can perceive the materialization of knowledge production in schools. Thus, it justifies the research whose results now present, centered in the history of Teaching discipline, extinct Training Course at the Higher Institute of Garça SP of Education (2003-2006), which is part of a post teacher training policy LDB 9394/96. The method of analysis and interpretation of data and privileged information is the "aspects of textual configuration," said Magnani (1993; 1997) / Mortatti (2000), based on the location of procedures, identification, recovery, meeting, selection, ordering , systematization and analysis of the documentary corpus. The theoretical framework that supported the analysis of the data and information obtained was constituted by Chervel formulations (1990) about what the researcher calls the objective purposes and real purposes, which underpin the knowledge and allow them to materialize in the institutions, through all its processes, among which the school and or academic disciplines. Among the final considerations it has been that the didactics of disciplines should have taken the Superior Normal Course of Garça, the report of the institution, role, next to the Research and Teaching Practice and Curriculum Supervised as the integrating elements of the axes curriculum. However, research carried out showed that it was only in attempts.

Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível SuperiorThe present work has the intention to construct a history of discipline Calculation in the course of Degree in Mathematics of the Federal University of Sergipe, during the period from 1972 to 1990. It examines the historical curse of discipline by means of the workload, of the prerequisite ones, of its contents, its professors and methods of teaching. It analyzes the history of the Calculation in the prism of the history of the disciplines, taking as sources the lesson plans, minutes acts, resolutions, reports, didatic books and verbal stories. We infer that the changes pass the discipline Calculation had went in regards to the workload of great relevance; however, in if treating to prerequisite and summaries, the alterations were smaller. In the case of the movement of contents of each disciplines, we notice that in elapsing of the years the malter of teaching Calculation was configured gradually and before assuming its last formation it pass for different disciplines with reformularizations in its configuration, with distinct signatures, with distinct workload, but with the same contents. We observed although there was renewal of the teaching picture causing significant alterations regarding the profile of the professors of Calculation. We consideed that the method of the lesson was closely connected to the use that the theacher could make of the book and the applications of exercises.
O presente trabalho tem o propósito de construir uma história da disciplina Cálculo no curso de Licenciatura em Matemática da Universidade Federal de Sergipe, durante o período de 1972 a 1990. Examina o percurso histórico da disciplina por meio da carga horária, dos pré-requisitos, de seus conteúdos, seus professores e métodos de ensino. Analisa a história do Cálculo no prisma da história das disciplinas, tomando como fontes os planos de aula, atas, resoluções, relatórios, livros didáticos e relatos orais. Inferimos que as mudanças por que passou a disciplina Cálculo foram no tocante à carga horária de grande relevância; porém, em se tratando de pré-requisitos e ementas, as alterações foram menores. No caso da movimentação dos conteúdos em cada disciplina, notamos que no decorrer dos anos a matéria de ensino Cálculo foi configurada paulatinamente e antes de assumir a sua última formação perpassou por diferentes disciplinas, com reformulações em sua configuração, com assinaturas distintas, com cargas horárias distintas, mas com os mesmos conteúdos. Observamos ainda que o quadro docente ocasionou alterações significativas na disciplina Cálculo. Consideramos que o método da aula estava intimamente ligado ao uso que o professor poderia fazer do livro e das aplicações de exercícios.

This dissertation aimed to analyze the history of mathematics as a discipline and its importance in training mathematics professors at the State University of Paraíba (UEPB), the Federal University of Campina Grande (UFCG) and the Federal Institute of Education, Science and Technology of Paraíba (IFPB) located in Campina Grande and the Federal University of Paraíba (UFPB), in João Pessoa. The qualitative research, since it seeks the gist of the phenomenon investigated in all its dimensions and processes, is supported by bibliographical and documentary study. Given the importance of mathematics in teaching practice as the main component for initial teacher´s education, it takes for examination the following documents: the National Curriculum Guidelines, which establish the rules for the creation of the Educational Project Course and in particular cases a Plan Course provided by the lecturer professor of the discipline the history of mathematics. Therefore, the guidelines of the discipline was analyzed in details, but it also caused us to identify in practice the design of teacher educators and students in training on the History of Mathematics discipline and, above all, the importance of the history of mathematics in the development of teachers training. The paper interviewed four teachers and three students of the quoted institutions. From the analysis of interviews, we built two categories that emerged from the conversations: The history of mathematics as a contribution to the training of teachers and the importance of mathematics in history for teacher training. We understand that the discipline is important for the essentiality of bringing the light of the classroom discussions knowledge about what is mathematics from a historical point of view and how it was developed throughout time. The major evidences after the analysis of documents and interviews was the difference between the proposal of the written curriculum and the one implemented in the classroom by teachers, indicating that there is an attempt of students training to work in their future activities practices in which they are linked to the history of mathematics.
Esta dissertação teve como objetivo analisar a disciplina de História da Matemática e sua importância na formação do professor de matemática na Universidade Estadual da Paraíba (UEPB), na Universidade Federal de Campina Grande (UFCG) e no Instituto Federal de Educação, Ciência e Tecnologia da Paraíba (IFPB) todos na cidade de Campina Grande e na Universidade Federal da Paraíba (UFPB), em João Pessoa. A pesquisa de natureza qualitativa, por sua condição de captar a essencialidade do fenômeno investigado em toda a sua dimensão e processo, teve apoio em estudo bibliográfico e documental. Tendo em vista a importância do currículo da Licenciatura em Matemática como componente principal para a formação inicial de professores tomamos para análise os seguintes documentos: as Diretrizes Curriculares Nacionais, que determinam as normas para a criação do Projeto Pedagógico do Curso e em casos particulares o Plano de Curso disponibilizado pelo professor ministrante da disciplina de História da Matemática. Para tanto, a ementa da referida disciplina foi analisada de forma minuciosa, como também nos provocou identificar na prática a concepção de professores formadores e alunos em formação sobre a disciplina de História da Matemática e, sobretudo, a importância da História da Matemática na formação do professor. Participaram das entrevistas quatro professores e três alunos das Instituições pesquisadas. A partir das análises das entrevistas construímos duas categorias que emergiram das falas, que são elas: a História da Matemática como contribuição para a formação do professor e a importância da História da Matemática para a formação do professor. Entendemos que a disciplina é importante pela essencialidade de trazer a luz das discussões em sala de aula um conhecimento sobre o que é matemática do ponto de vista histórico e como ela se desenvolveu ao longo do tempo. As principais evidências após as análises em documentos e nas entrevistas realizadas foi à diferença entre a proposta do currículo escrito e a do currículo implementado em sala de aula pelos professores, indicando que há uma tentativa de alunos em formação trabalhar em suas práticas futuras atividades em que estejam ligadas a História da Matemática.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis examines the development of the New Zealand secondary school history curriculum in the late 20th century and is a case study of the transformation of an academic discipline into a senior secondary school subject. It is concerned with the nature of state control in the development of the history curriculum at this level as well as the extent to which dominant elites within the history teaching community influenced the process. This thesis provides a historical perspective on recent developments in the history curriculum (2005-2008) and argues New Zealand stands apart from international trends in regards to history education. Internationally, curriculum developers have typically prioritised a narrative of the nation-state but in New Zealand the history teaching community has, by and large, been reluctant to engage with a national past and chosen to prioritise English history. Also in the international arena the history curriculum is shaped by government agencies but in New Zealand in the late 20th century, a minority of historians and teachers had a disproportionate influence over the process. They eschewed attempts to liberalise the subject by the Department of Education (and thereby reflect contemporary developments in the parent discipline) and shaped the curriculum to reflect their own professional interests. This thesis puts forward a hypothesis that seeks to explain the nature of continuity and change in the senior history curriculum in the late 20th century with a view to illuminating the origins of recent debates in the history teaching community. It argues that it is the examination prescriptions that dictate what is taught at this level and that there are three key criteria that must be met if a senior curriculum initiative is to be successfully introduced, or an existing area of historical knowledge is to be retained. Firstly, it is necessary that the decision-making elite share a consensus that a particular body of historical knowledge is of higher status than any alternative. Secondly, a successful initiative must reflect the existing scholarly constraints and boundaries of the parent discipline. Finally, advocates of a particular area of knowledge must be able to establish alliances with major stakeholders in a subject community who are sympathetic to their cause. The role of dominant individuals in this process was paramount in the 1980s as Department of Education curriculum committees at this time operated on the ethos of ‘consultation’, with little explicit philosophical direction and no authentic evaluation. This model is examined by considering the examples of women’s history (that was successfully embedded in the 1989 curriculum), Maori history (that was not) and 16th and 17th century English history (that has dominated the history curriculum in New Zealand for over 30 years).

Full textAbstract:
Town planning entails the complex task of studying the habitat in its variegated aspects, with the objective of introducing functional transformations in response to the demands of the community. Since it is an experimental discipline, however, methods of approach and elaboration can be very different. This book represents the synthesis of the degree theses produced in the Department of Town and Territorial Planning of the University of Florence between 2000 and 2004, selected with a view to achieving a significant overview of the various issues and disciplinary areas. The volume thus addresses topical questions such as the protection of the historic identity, the rethinking of the modern city, obsolete areas and urban gaps, relational processes and spaces, sustainable development and planning, and the settlements of developing countries.

This chapter traces French historiography, which counts among the most professionalized in the world, influencing global trends in the interpretation of the Middle Ages, of early modern social and political developments, of the French Revolution, of contemporary history, and of the comparison of civilizations and the history of colonial empires. The ‘professionalization’ of French historiography dates back to the nineteenth century, and included not only the creation of an institutional setting that gave rise to a highly differentiated discipline, but also an intense search for new methods among historians that guaranteed innovation and resistance to the ongoing process of fragmentation. The label ‘Annales School’ reduced a diversity of practices to the straightforward opposition of old-fashioned ‘positivist’ historiography versus a new historiography. Internationally, it influenced the image of French historiography to such a degree that the ‘Annales’ became identified with the most valuable contributions by French historians to the discipline.

The chapter provides an overarching perspective on the diverse aspects concerned with social science research (SSR) infrastructure in the Indian universities. The research infrastructure that is relevant for SSR include both physical and academic infrastructure. It covers the number of departments, number of sanctioned posts in the departments, filled posts, vacant posts, books in the department library, computers in the department, etc. The study indicates that highest numbers of departments are in disciplines like economics, education, law, and history. Disciplines like national security, population studies, and strategic studies are least popular disciplines with very few departments and chairs. Discipline-wise distribution of various social science courses shows that economics dominates in offering PhD degrees.

Full textAbstract:
This book queries from three different angles what it means to speak of Homeric poetry together with the word “text.” Scholarship from outside the discipline of classical studies on the relationship between orality and textuality motivates and undergirds the project. Part I uses work in linguistic anthropology on oral texts and oral intertextuality to illuminate both the verbal and oratorical landscapes our Homeric poets fashion in their epics and what the poets were striving to do when they performed. Looking to folkloristics, Part II examines modern instances of the textualization of an oral traditional work in order to reconstruct the creation of written versions of the Homeric poems through a process that began with a poet dictating to a scribe. Combining research into scribal activity in other cultures, especially in the fields of religious studies and medieval studies, with research into performance in the field of linguistic anthropology, Part III investigates some of the earliest extant texts of the Homeric epics, the so-called wild papyri. Written texts of the Iliad and the Odyssey achieved an unprecedented degree of standardization after 150 BCE. By looking at oral texts, dictated texts, and wild texts, this book traces the intricate history of Homeric texts from the Archaic to the Hellenistic period, long before the emergence of standardized written texts. Researchers in a number of disciplines will benefit from this comparative and interdisciplinary study.

Speech science has a history of over 120 years. In addition to the self-image of the discipline, this book focuses on everything that makes the subject so attractive: With its vital research and teaching subject, speaking and people talking to each other, it is both application-oriented and up-to-date. This explains the continuing high level of interest among students, research partners, and practical professional fields in education, art, media, counseling, therapy, and prevention. With study locations in Halle, Jena and Marburg, Speech Science is represented throughout Germany. As an interdisciplinary research and working subject with links to linguistics, medicine, pedagogy, psychology, politics and sociology, among others, there are also diverse collaborations in research, teaching and practice. This volume offers surprising insights into the diversity of speech science – from its history to the present to an outlook on what will be possible in the future. Susanne Voigt-Zimmermann holds a degree in speech science. After scientific, speech-educational, and clinical-therapeutic activities at the universities of Jena, Heidelberg, and Magdeburg, she has been a professor of speech science at the Department of Speech Science and Phonetics at Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg since 2017.

This book is written by Southern African social welfare, social work, social development, social security and social policy academics, practitioners and advocates who have varying degrees of experience. The chapters are examined through different theoretical lenses and historical perspectives. The book focuses on the pre-colonial period – a golden thread running through the chapters. Furthermore, the authors provide a deep and critical reflection of social welfare, social work, and related disciplines during the colonial era when Western countries’ capture and oppression of Africa characterised the continent’s history, and the post-colonial era, characterised by a deliberate move by Africa’s political administrations to focus on nation-building and to attempt making Africa a global player.

AbstractIt will be argued that the dominant form of current academic science is based on ideas and concepts about science and research that date back to philosophy and sociology that was developed since the 1930s. It will be discussed how this philosophy and sociology of science has informed the ideas, myths and ideology about science held by the scientific community and still determines the popular view of science. It is even more amazing when we realize that these ideas are philosophically and sociologically untenable and since the 1970s were declared obsolete by major scholars in these same disciplines. To demonstrate this, I delve deep to discuss the distinct stages that scholars in philosophy, sociology and history of science since 1945 to 2000 have gone through to leave the analytical-positivistic philosophy behind. I will be focusing on developments of their thinking about major topics such as: how scientific knowledge is produced, the scientific method; the status of scientific knowledge and the development of our ideas about ‘truth’ and the relation of our claims to reality. It will appear that the positivistic ideas about science producing absolute truth, about ‘the unique scientific method’, its formal logical approach and its timeless foundation as a guarantee for our value-free, objective knowledge were not untenable. This is to show how thoroughly the myth has been demystified in philosophy and sociology of science. You think after these fifty pages I am kicking a dead horse? Not at all! This scientific demystification has unfortunately still not reached active scientists. In fact, the popular image of science and research is still largely based on a that Legend. This is not without consequence as will be shown in Chap. 10.1007/978-94-024-2115-6_3. These images of science have shaped and in fact distorted the organisational structures of academia and the interaction between its institutes and disciplines. It also affects the relationship of science with its stakeholders in society, its funders, the many publics private and public, and policy makers in government. In short, it determines to a large degree the growth of knowledge with major effects on society.

Full textAbstract:
What is the epistemic significance of reflecting on a discipline’s past for making progress in that discipline? The author assumes that the answer to this question negatively correlates with that discipline’s degree of progress over time. If and only if a science is progressive, then what people have thought and argued in the past in that discipline ceases to be up to date. This chapter distinguishes different dimensions of disciplinary progress and subsequently argue that veritic progress, that is, collective convergence to truth, is the most important dimension for disciplines with scientific ambitions. It then argues that, on the one hand, veritic progress in philosophy is more significant than many current philosophers believe, but that, on the other hand, it also has severe limitations. The author offers an explanation of these limitations that suggests that the history of philosophy should play some role, though only a minor one, in systematic philosophy.

Abstract This chapter looks at households, which typically consisted of parents and children, amounting often to between four and six members, but variants could include siblings or members of the older generation, or unrelated individuals, most often servants. The inhabitants, or at least the head of the household, decided on the design of houses, which provided a varying degree of comfort. The character of family life depended on the norms and expectations of the church and the adult male heads of households. Expectations of discipline and hierarchy were designed to provide enough labour from household members, and to secure an orderly succession of property.

This chapter examines the connection between the torture inflicted by law enforcement officials in the South during the 1930s and 1940s and the decline in the number of lynching of African Americans during this period. The Scottsboro case displays the racist structure of the justice system and outlines the tradition of violence and pattern of African Americans accused of rape and sexual assault. The illustration of violence further examines black history involving the Reconstruction era in which African American challenged for equality against white supremacy. Emphasized in this chapter is the process of torture by lynching against African American. Lynching aimed to discipline landless blacks and serve as a fear and embed a stereotype of racial difference. The decrease of lynching occurred in the early 1900s as the South questioned their reputation, and the Association of Southern Women for the Prevention of Lynching (ASWPL) promoted anti-lynching campaigns. The case of Ed Brown, Arthur Ellington, and Henry Shields documents the violent dynamics that tended to emerge as state authorities increasingly asserted their monopoly on the use of force in the South.

This chapter considers the Greek debt crisis that began in late 2009, specifically the remarkable degree of debtor compliance in the Greek case in light of the country's long-standing reputation as a “debt-intolerant serial defaulter” that spent nearly half of its history since independence in a state of default. The chapter analyzes the Greek crisis through the lens of the three enforcement mechanisms of debtor discipline identified in the Mexican and Argentine cases in the preceding chapters. While much of the debate on Greece's policy response has centered on the question of the country's Eurozone membership, the chapter digs a little deeper to uncover many of the same power dynamics that had been at play in the Global South in the 1980s and 1990s.

E-learning is still a quite young discipline that undergoes a continuous process of change due to new potentials that technology brings every day. After hardly 10 years of experience, it is difficult to envisage what is the degree of success of such new approaches to learning. Of course, the number of virtual students is increasing day by day because of the flexibility of such new environments that overcome constraints of time and space (Salmon, 2000; Palloff & Pratt, 2003). However, no such effort has been put into evaluating how the process of learning is taking place and comparing e-learning results with traditional distance learning studies, or even presential courses. The present chapter attempts to show some evaluation models for e-learning and how their results may contribute to define future research agenda and new technological implementations. Our experience of coordinating and teaching courses in archaeology and ancient history in the UOC (Open University of Catalonia) may shed some light into such a complex issue.

The coming of the steamship was one of the great watersheds in the history of humankind. For the first time, transport could be powered independently of the elements of animal or human power. The implications were wide-ranging because the assured power of steam permitted a hitherto unprecedented degree of regularity in the scheduling of services. In turn, this regularized all sorts of commercial transactions, including personal travel, and impinged on the experience of vast swathes of the population through a new discipline of time and a broadening of horizons as the new mode of transport shortened distance and permitted the more rapid transport of goods, people and information. The lives of individuals and institutions were transformed by the coming of the steamship, first at a local level, but within decades of the first commercial voyages at regional, national, international and world levels. The steamship was the prime agent of a world economy and the globalization process. Moreover, the transformation wrought by the steamship took place in less than a century....

The field of creative writing studies includes commonly regarded forms of distance education such as online courses, but there is an impressive diversity regarding the opportunities available to creative writers. To illustrate this, the chapter discusses the two tracks available to writers. The first features the university environment, where students enroll in undergraduate and graduate creative writing degree programs. These programs could be full-residency, low-residency, or online. However, not all writers are able or willing to enroll in such programs. For these writers, there are non-academic options that are driven not by colleges and universities but by the publishing community. Non-degree writers might enroll in online workshops or communities. Finally, non-degree seeking writers might work independently through MOOCs, extension classes, iTunesU courses, and how-to texts. This chapter discusses the history of distance education as it is evolving and the potentially overwhelming number of options available to aspiring writers.

Full textAbstract:
The chapter suggests that the dominant architectural history is too logocentric and not speculative enough. As such, its only merit is to translate a coexistence of becomings into a succession of neat logically necessary types. The case will be made for the role of topology as the antidote to the pernicious typological essentialism. Architecture needs to be free from the ideas of epoch and destiny. Following Brian Massumi’s lead, the speculative aspect relates to the contingently obligatory becoming, an event: “intrepidly future-facing, far-rangingly foretracing.” While it would appear logical that space should precede affordance, in fact the inverse holds true. The degree zero of spatial experience occurs at the level of the unconscious and is proto-subjective and sub-representational. As Hayles put it, consciousness is overrated. In terms of architectural thinking everything begins from the sensible. However, the task of speculative thinking is to go beyond the sensible to the potentials that make sensibility possible. After all, the basic medium of the discipline of architecture, as we see it, is the ‘space of experience’. This spatium, which is not to be confused with the ‘experience of space’, does not pre-exist but subsists as a virtuality. According to Deleuze, the plane of composition - as a work of sensation - is aesthetic: "it is the material that passes into the sensation." Once aesthetics is drawn into the context of production its realm expands to become a dimension of being itself. Both subjects and objects come to be seen as derivative. Consequently, the mereological relationship - which is perfectly suitable for the realm of the extensive - needs to be radically revamped in order to become capable of capturing topological transformations. But what we are advocating is not a formalisable model. Quite the contrary, any technological determinism needs to be kept at bay. What is needed instead is heuristics as a practice of material inference. However disadvantageous this may seem to the architect, it will prove not to be so once we fully grasp the Affective Turn and its implications for the discipline. It might become apparent that it is through habit, rather than attention, and collectivity, rather than individualism, that we find the (royal) road to the understanding of ‘space’, or better still, that we take a (minor) apprenticeship in spatialisation.

This chapter examines the history of the study of medieval art in Great Britain during the period from 1950 to 2000. The British Academy created a separate section for History of Art and Music, but in many quarters art history was still thought of as the province of the amateur art-lover rather than an object of serious study. Only the Courtland Institute continued to be the only institution in England offering undergraduate and graduate degrees. The situation changed in the 1960s and 1970s when all branches of the discipline experienced major growth in the areas of conservation studies and art-book publishing.

By use of a brief historic overview, there is traced the development of the cultural landscape as a scientific notion from its onset to present times. Regulatory postulates of UNESCO are taken into consideration, which explain the meaning of the terms "tradition", "intangible cultural heritage" and "cultural landscape". There are also summed up the practical and applied benefits from studying the discipline: a model for making an ethno-cultural landscape profile of the tourist site as a ground for creating unique tourist products based on traditional culture and turning folklore rituality into a generator of touristic plots.

Full textAbstract:
This address considers relationships between professional and postdisciplinary practices as they relate to practice-led design research. When viewed through territorial lenses, the artefacts and systems that many designers in universities develop can be argued as hybrids because they draw into their composition and contexts, diverse disciplinary fields. Procedurally, the address moves outwards from a discussion of the manner in which disciplinary designations, that originated in the secularisation of German universities during the beginning of the nineteenth century, became the template for how much knowledge is currently processed inside the academy. The paper then examines how these demarcations of thought, that included non-classical languages and literatures, social and natural sciences and technology, were disrupted in the 1970s and 1980s, by identity-based disciplines that grew inside universities. These included women’s, lesbian and gay, and ethnic studies. However, of equal importance during this period was the arrival of professional disciplines like design, journalism, nursing, business management, and hospitality. Significantly, many of these professions brought with them values and processes associated with user-centred research. Shaped by the need to respond quickly and effectively to opportunity, practitioners were accustomed to drawing on and integrating knowledge unfettered by disciplinary or professional demarcation. For instance, if a design studio required the input of a government policymaker, a patent attorney and an engineer, it was accustomed to working flexibly with diverse realms of knowledge in the pursuit of an effective outcome. In addition, these professions also employed diverse forms of practice-led inquiry. Based on high levels of situated experimentation, active reflection, and applied professional knowing, these approaches challenged many research and disciplinary conventions within the academy. Although practice-led inquiry, argued as a form of postdisciplinarity practice, is a relatively new concept (Ings, 2019), it may be associated with Wright, Embrick and Henke’s (2015, p. 271) observation that “post-disciplinary studies emerge when scholars forget about disciplines and whether ideas can be identified with any particular one: they identify with learning rather than with disciplines”. Darbellay takes this further. He sees postdisciplinarity as an essential rethinking of the concept of a discipline. He suggests that when scholars position themselves outside of the idea of disciplines, they are able to “construct a new cognitive space, in which it is no longer merely a question of opening up disciplinary borders through degrees of interaction/integration, but of fundamentally challenging the obvious fact of disciplinarity” (2016, p. 367). These authors argue that, postdisciplinarity proposes a profound rethinking of not only knowledge, but also the structures that surround and support it in universities. In the field of design, such approaches are not unfamiliar. To illustrate how practice-led research in design may operate as a postdisciplinary inquiry, this paper employs a case study of the short film Sparrow (2017). In so doing, it unpacks the way in which knowledge from within and beyond conventionally demarcated disciplinary fields, was gathered, interpreted and creatively synthesised. Here, unconstrained by disciplinary demarcations, a designed artefact surfaced through a research fusion that integrated history, medicine, software development, public policy, poetry, typography, illustration, and film production.

Full textAbstract:
As information resources of all types and disciplines are being stored and retrieved in digital form, libraries are responding to the demands for more effective retrieval of such documents and to provide even more digital access to scholarly and recreational library materials. This has led schools of library and information science to develop special programs, degrees, and certificates in digital librarianship. These programs vary from one school to another, but they all demonstrate the multidisciplinarity of education for librarians who will work specifically with digital librarianship. Library and Information Science education has always had a multidiscipline orientation, with traditional faculty consisting of those with degrees in the fields of sociology, communications, history, public administration, education, engineering, and computer science, as well as advanced degrees in library and information science. But with the advent of special programs in digital librarianship, the curriculum has begun to switch to a multidiscipline curriculum content which may be evolving into a sub-specialization in the field. These trends are examined in this paper and recommendations are made regarding future research needed to determine the advisability and sustainability of this trend.

In this context, the EuLES Network (u-Learning Environments in Higher Education), an interdisciplinary network created in 2010 at the University of Zaragoza (Spain) to foster research, interaction, cooperation and transfer of knowledge and technologies related to learning and open education, has developed two projects oriented to High School Students: “WikinformáticA! en Aragon” and “Women in STEM by EuLES”. WikinformáticA! en Aragón is a competition for student groups in which they develop a wiki on prominent women in the history of Information and Communication Technology (ICT). The objective is the visibility of women involved in technology. The purpose of the Women in STEM project is to offer testimonies of women in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics to encourage scientific vocations, especially in young people and girls. The project consists of conducting video interviews of women who work or study in these disciplines. All the videos, along with a short biography, are posted on the web.

Virtual reality (VR) has achieved an adequate level of development in education and research in higher education The training in Architecture requires a reflection on the incorporation of new design technologies at the Degree and Master’s level, due, in part, to the dissatisfaction of the students with the poor implementation of these technologies. The pedagogical possibilities of VR are very high. The aim of this paper is to propose a transversal methodology for several subjects in the same semester. It consists of the virtual recreation of a work of relevant architecture in the history of contemporary Architecture. The possibilities of implementing VR in the architectonic subjects are analyzed. This methodology takes advantage of the potential of this technology to create a transversal educational activity, for different subjects and areas of knowledge in the same academic year. Subsequently, the different phases for its implementation are described in terms of activities and scenarios. The paper concludes that transversal methodology offers the opportunity to analyze the same building from different disciplines, checking the interrelation between them, and saves time for the student in completing teaching assignments.

Full textAbstract:
The contamination between design and theory of systems as a field of development of new design processes is nowadays consolidated. However, the issue concerning the methodology to apply in teaching systemic design remains an open question. The approach adopted in the Master Degree in Systemic Design at Politecnico di Torino is based on the assumption that the teaching method must itself be systemic. Alongside designers, the degree course has involved from the very beginning experts of different disciplines (i.e. chemistry, physics, mechanics, history, economy and management) as teachers, in order to create a multidisciplinary environment for the development of projects. Born as master degree in academic year 2002-03 at Politecnico di Torino (Italy) from the close collaboration with Gunter Pauli, the course has changed name and form but not the content, until it reached the current title (a.y. 2015-16): master degree “Aurelio Peccei” in Systemic Design. The Open Systems course has enabled students, in previous years, to experiment the design of production processes. This was the case of the systemic project done with NN Europe, a company engaged in manufacturing ball bearings, in which the output management allows a positive economic impact. Over the years the course has shifted its focus from the production process of a product to the wider company context. In 2010, the approach has been applied to the agricultural enterprise Ortofruit: starting from agricultural production, the students have defined the production system and the relationships with the market. Systemic Design, during this course, has experienced the transition from the design of industrial processes that are closely linked to the territory, and then enhance local resources, to the design of the whole territorial system. The work done by the students of the course in recent years has led to the definition of scenarios about fields usually distant from the traditional design world. For example, the definition of the economic model, the corporate model that is built around relationships on cooperation with different disciplines.This transition, from the product to the entire territorial system, allows the exploration of new contexts, but it also puts the designer in a complex and challenging position in according with complex theories.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.4995/IFDP.2016.3353

It also considers the adoption of the theories and methods of the Conzenian School. Urban morphological research in China is carried out in different disciplines: mainly archaeology, geography, and architecture. The earliest significant work was within archaeology, but that has been widely ignored by current urban morphological researchers. As an urban archaeologist whose first degree was in architecture, Zhengzhi Zhao worked on the Studies on the reconstruction of the city plan of Ta-Tu in the Yuan Dynasty in 1957. He uncovered the original city plan of Ta-Tu (now Beijing) in the Yuan Dynasty by applying street pattern analysis. Before the Cultural Revolution, Pingfang Xu recorded and collated the research findings of Zhao, who was by then seriously ill, so that the methods he developed could be continued with the help of other scholars especially archaeologists. His methods of study are still used in studies of urban form in China today. Later, the dissemination of the Conzenian School of thought, aided by two ISUF conferences in China, promoted the development of studies of Chinese urban form. With the help of Jeremy Whitehand, researchers, including the Urban Morphology Research Group of Peking University, applied the theories and methods of the Conzenian School through field work and empirical studies. Taking the opportunity of the 110th anniversaries of the birth of both M.R.G. Conzen and Zhengzhi Zhao, this paper summarizes multidisciplinary urban morphological research in China.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract The degree of fluid compartmentalization has direct implications on the development costs of oil and gas reservoirs, since it may negatively impact gas water contacts (GWC) and fluid condensate gas ratios (CGR). In this case study on the Barik Formation in the giant Khazzan gas field in Block 61 in Oman we demonstrate how integrating independent approaches for assessing potential reservoir compartmentalization can be used to assess compartmentalization risk. The three disciplines that were integrated are structural geology (fault seal analysis, movement and stress stages of faults and fractures, traps geometry over geological time), petroleum systems (fluid chemistry and pressure, charge history) and sedimentology-stratigraphy including diagenesis (sedimentological and diagenetic controls on vertical and lateral facies and reservoir quality variation). Dynamic data from production tests were also analyzed and integrated with the observations above. Based on this work, Combined Common Risk Segment (CCRS) maps with a most likely and alternative scenarios for reservoir compartmentalization were constructed. While pressure data carry significant uncertainty due to the tight nature of the deeply buried rocks, it is clear pressures in gas-bearing sections fall onto a single pressure gradient across Block 61, while water pressures indicate variable GWCs. Overall, the GWCs appear to shallow across the field towards the NW, while water pressure appears to increase in that direction. The "apparent" gas communication with separate aquifers is difficult to explain conventionally. A range of scenarios for fluid distribution and reservoir connectivity are discussed. Fault seal compartmentalization and different trap spill points were found to be the most likely mechanism explaining fluid distribution and likely reservoir compartmentalization. Perched water may be another factor explaining variable GWCs. Hydrodynamic tilting due to the flow of formation water was deemed an unlikely scenario, and the risk of reservoir compartmentalization due to sedimentological and diagenetic flow barriers was deemed to be low.
