Abstract:

In today's turbulent world, ethnic contradictions naturally intensify. They are nourished both by the just desire of ethnic groups for self-determination and ethnic egocentrism. When analyzing the influence of the ethnic factor on the world of federations, it is necessary to take into account both the traditional tools: the theories of primordialism, instrumentalism, constructivism, and the innovative ones proposed by the author's team: ethnolinguistic architecture and the cultural and religious structure of the federation. The publication is intended for students, undergraduates and teachers of legal, political science and historical fields of study, as well as for specialists in the field of public administration and anyone interested in the problems of state studies.

Pitti, Bonaccorso. Ricordi. Edited by Veronica Vestri. Florence: Firenze University Press, 2015. http://dx.doi.org/10.36253/978-88-6655-726-5.

Abstract:

Mercante, uomo politico e ambasciatore cui la Repubblica di Firenze affidò difficili missioni presso i re di Francia e l’imperatore, Bonaccorso Pitti (1354-1432) ha a lungo affascinato studiosi sia italiani sia stranieri. Sedotti dalla sua poliedrica, passionale e spesso egocentrica personalità, molti fra loro hanno visto in Bonaccorso un precursore – fra gli altri – di Benvenuto Cellini e Casanova. La sua abilità nel gioco d’azzardo, ad esempio, o la spinta autobiografica che anima molte delle sue pagine sono state così enfatizzate a scapito di una lettura globale sia dei Ricordi sia del carattere di Bonaccorso. È appunto per invitare i lettori a una riflessione integrale e debitamente contestualizzata che Firenze University Press ha affidato a Veronica Vestri una nuova edizione di questo celebre ‘libro di famiglia’, introdotto da alcune pagine di Stefano U. Baldassarri che lo collocano all’interno del genere cui esso appartiene, mettendone così in risalto motivi e finalità, entrambi caratterizzati da quella prudente e tenace concretezza tipica del Rinascimento fiorentino.

Abstract:

The penultimate chapter explores a major conjunction between literary and music aesthetics in the period. The first section shows how Olson and the New York School of music began to address, in 1950, the problem of the artist’s unwanted presence in the work of art. The following sections reveal that Olson and the composers found similar formal solutions to this problem, foregrounding individual sound units with new forms of spatial notation that relied upon ‘composition by field’. Anxieties about the interfering ‘ego’ were rooted, the chapter suggests, in contemporary critiques of the organizing, Enlightenment intellect and reflected the avant-garde’s commitment to uncertainty and immediacy.

Abstract:

Social networks are ubiquitous. The science of networks has shaped how researchers and society understand the spread of disease, the precursors of loneliness, the rise of protest movements, the causes of social inequality, the influence of social media, and much more. Egocentric analysis conceives of each individual, or ego, as embedded in a personal network of alters, a community partially of their creation and nearly unique to them, whose composition and structure have consequences. This volume is dedicated to understanding the history, present, and future of egocentric social network analysis. The text brings together the most important, classic articles foundational to the field with new perspectives to form a comprehensive volume ideal for courses in network analysis. The collection examines where the field of egocentric research has been, what it has uncovered, and where it is headed.

Full text

Abstract:

Chapter 6 argues that perceived unfairness and feelings of uncertainty are likely to lead to radicalization when combined with people’s tendencies to correct for their self-centered impulses in insufficient ways. The chapter reviews various instances in which people can find it difficult to correct for their egocentric impulses. In this way, the chapter examines how self-interest may influence people’s initial reactions and how insufficient correction processes may play a role in egocentric human behavior, including behavior of radicals, extremists, and even terrorists. Chapter 6 argues that insufficient self-correction plays a role in various processes of human radicalization. Figure 6.5 illustrates this process. The chapter also considers how and when people can do something against insufficient self-correction. This latter insight may be conducive to the possible prevention of radicalization and the initiation of successful deradicalization.

Abstract:

In its milder forms, autism is widespread, but often not considered as an explanation for odd, egocentric, rigid, and/or potentially socially problematic behaviour. The reader is encouraged in this chapter to consider how autism might present in the world in which (s)he works and lives. A series of case vignettes are then used (in this chapter), drawn from ordinary life settings (work, college, neighbourhood, family, etc.) to illustrate and inform awareness, and possible consideration of autism that has been missed earlier in the person’s life. Questions are posed following each case vignette that the reader is asked to try to answer. Care recommendations then follow.

Abstract:

The Introduction starts by discussing the mystery of time. While time as a parameter of the arena of the world seems remote, it states, time is also associated with many features that shape the way we live our lives. It is this juxtaposition between its remoteness and familiarity that makes time one of the great mysteries—and the study of time especially captivating. In philosophy, time has always been a challenging topic. It is hard to separate our egocentric representation of time from a more objective one. This book hopes to have a “prospective” rather than “retrospective” look at the field’s past. It looks as well as at work completed at new work and topics being investigated in the philosophy of time.

Full text

Abstract:

This chapter provides an account of the spatial perspectival characteristics and the self-presence of remembering from-the-outside. The chapter develops the Constructive Encoding approach, according to which the context of encoding may play a role in the construction of observer perspectives. The Constructive Encoding approach recognizes the multiple and multiperspectival sources of information available during perception, and suggests that observer perspectives may be constructed from non-egocentric information available during perceptual experience. This chapter provides a way of understanding the idea that one need not see oneself from-the-outside in order to have a memory that is recalled from-the-outside. This chapter not only provides a better understanding of observer perspectives but also sheds light on the perspectival mind.

Full text

Abstract:

It is often assumed that experiential reference, in particular the references we make using so-called essential indexicals (I, here, and now), is irreducible to other forms or reference. In focusing on Donnellan’s insights concerning the referential use of definite descriptions and empirical evidence coming from cognitive sciences (in particular Pylyshin’s work on situated vision), Eros Corazza discusses and defends this view. In so doing, he shows how experiential reference rests on a form of egocentric immersion underpinning agent-centered behaviours. It is further argued that our capacity to express de se thoughts (i.e. thoughts about ourselves) supervenes on the ability we have to master viewpoint-dependent thoughts. This constitutes the cognitive grounds upon which philosophical insights concerning the notions of essential indexicals, self-locating beliefs, and self-centered behaviours should be understood.

Abstract:

Research on social networks and voting behavior has been largely limited to long-established democracies. In young democracies with unstable party systems and low levels of mass partisan identification, such networks should be even more important. This chapter examines egocentric political discussion networks in Brazil, where political discussion is plentiful and exposure to disagreement is somewhat more frequent than in the United States. Over the course of campaigns, such conversation affects voting choices and helps citizens learn about candidates and their issue positions; networks are especially important for learning among low-status individuals. The chapter highlights the availability of two important panel data sets incorporating design elements that can improve inference regarding network effects: the 2002–2006 Two-City Brazilian Panel Study and the 2014 Brazilian Electoral Panel Survey.

Abstract:

This chapter examines whether all animals are existential animals to meaningful degree. Drawing on existentialist perspectives, it bridges contemporary research in psychological science with classic work in philosophy, specifically Friedrich Nietzsche’s Genealogy of Morals, and the animated series Masters of the Universe. The chapter first considers Nietzsche’s archetypes of the human essence: the Priestly masters of outwardly vigilant self-control and the Knightly masters of egocentric conquest. It then explores the neurocognitive structures underlying the divergent behaviors, motivations, and values manifested by Nietzsche’s Knights and Priests. The chapter shows how humans accumulate experiences that are modeled by brain structures into associative networks, which are in turn projected onto the environment as expectations for subsequent experiences. It also describes how an approach-oriented mode of being impoverishes our ability to understand others’ mental states (i.e., theory of mind) as our ego-centrism increases.

Full text

Abstract:

Facial expressions are an important source of social communication. But we do not know why they appear the way they do and how they arose. Here we discuss evidence supporting Darwin’s theory that our expressions originated for sensory egocentric function for the expresser, which were then co-opted as signals for allocentric social function. We show that facial expressions of fear and disgust have distinct opposing sensory effects that serve each emotion’s theorized function, regulating the intake of nasal and visual information. Then, we show how such egocentrically adaptive expressive forms may have been socially co-opted for allocentric function, transmitting basic gaze signals and complex mental states adaptively congruent for the receiver as the expresser. Together, the evidence connects the appearance of our expressions from their evolutionary origins to their modern-day communicative role, providing a functional perspective for organizing and understanding expression forms.

Full text

Abstract:

This chapter examines the cognitive, motivational, emotional, and interpersonal characteristics that distinguish hypo-egoic from egoic individuals and speculates about the origins of these differences. Cognitively, hypo-egoic people tend to be more focused on stimuli in the present moment, which they process in an experiential fashion with minimal internal commentary. They also tend to be less egocentric and to have a less individuated identity than people who are more egoic. In terms of motivation and emotion, hypo-egoic people appear motivated to balance their own self-interests with the needs of other people, show less concern with how they are evaluated by others, and display greater emotional equanimity. Interpersonally, hypo-egoicism appears to be associated with an agreeable, attentive, and caring style of relating to other people. In addition, people with these characteristics are probably more likely to experience hypo-egoic phenomena such as flow, awe, compassion, and mystical experiences.

Full text

Abstract:

This chapter tries to reconstruct Smith’s philosophical attitude towards Rousseau almost solely on the basis of the TMS passages on Mandeville. The first section fleshes out the position on human nature and human sociality that Smith attributes to both Mandeville and Rousseau. The second section explicates Smith’s explicit response to Mandeville’s version of this position. The third sections attempts to reconstruct a Smithian response to Rousseau on the basis of this response to Mandeville. Invoking Smith’s sympathy-based account of approval, the chapter argues that his disagreement with Rousseau can be understood as centering on the very nature of our concern with winning sympathy from others. The chapter concludes that we should understand the sincere love of virtue, to which Smith appeals in response to Mandeville’s reduction of such motives to vanity, in terms of a non-egocentric way of loving sympathy that Smith would charge Rousseau with overlooking.
