Full text
Abstract:
This essay takes the risk of a formal adventure – both on and off the page – in order to do justice to the specificity of the event, the particular Saying, named ‘song.’ Written by ear to be (read aloud as) heard it has been explicitly composed for oral presentation to perform the ‘truth’ it tells. Taking Joni Mitchell’s rendering of ‘Answer Me’ as its inspiration and point of departure, reference, and return, and drawing on the work of and intellectual tradition associated with Nietzsche, Heidegger, Merleau-Ponty, Lacan, Irigaray, Nancy, and Derrida, for example, the essay explores the power of popular song in the spirit of song itself. Neither music nor philosophy, neither poetry nor prose, but something in between: mousikē-philosophy/philosophy-mousikē.

Abstract:
AbstractThis article treats ambiguous heterosexual experiences—not quite rape, but not quite “just sex” either—as a form of domination, distinct from both coercion and productive power. It argues that if we wish to make sense of the power dynamics involved in these experiences, it may be useful to view the domination that takes place as a kind of interpellation, understood in the Althusserian sense as a mutually constitutive dynamic in which ideologies create “good subjects,” and subjects reproduce ideology. Considering heterosexual domination as a form of Althusserian interpellation enables us to see the power in question as an embodied, intersubjective relation that demands the complicity of dominated persons, with lasting effects on their subjectivity. This approach avoids positing the dominated as helpless victims or passive objects, while bearing witness to and shedding light on their experiences.

Abstract:
This article discusses the role of the social sciences in the time of COVID-19. The pandemic has led to a renewed appreciation of the social and with this comes the prospect for the social sciences to gain greater relevance. We note the reasons why disasters lead to an increase in sociality and the activities that social scientists are well-placed to undertake: speaking truth to power, calling out lies and sectional advantage, separating fact from opinion, assessing the consequences of political action, predicting social futures (saying how the world will be), assessing public opinion (saying how people would like it to be), and advocating for social justice (saying how the world should be). Social science work shows that another world is possible and that another world is desired. More significantly, it also shows how to bring this world into being.

Abstract:
Developments in the conceptualisation of childhood have prompted a fundamental shift in young people’s position within social research. Central to this has been the growing recognition of children’s agency within the landscapes of power between child participants and adult researchers. Participatory research has rooted itself in this paradigm, gaining status from its principles of social inclusion and reciprocity. While participatory research has benefitted from a growing theoretical analysis, insight can be deepened from reflexive accounts critiquing participation ‘in the field’. This article presents one such account, using the example of an ethnographic study with young people living in a ‘disadvantaged’ housing estate in the UK. It describes how efforts to ‘enable’ young people’s participation were simultaneously embraced, contested, subverted and refused. These, often playful, responses offered rich insight into how the young participants viewed themselves, their neighbourhood, and ‘outsiders’ efforts to give them voice. The article concludes by emphasising the importance of conceptualising participation not simply as a set of methods, but as a philosophical commitment which embraces honesty, inclusivity and, importantly, the humour that can come from this approach to research.

Abstract:
Watching young children build their understandings about such attributes of objects as weight and length is fascinating. As teachers, wc have daily opportunities to see students developing power in linear measurement. Along with most teachers of young children, the author can vividly recall observing young children in the early stages of tuning into the length of objects as they used the classroom materials. One three-year-old was struggling to carry a double-unit kindergarten block, all the while saying to herself. “Heavy. Hea-ea-vey Hea-ea-ea-vey.”

Abstract:
In public health, prevention or a disease is better than cure. This principle is applicable in many aspects of life. However, in recent years, clinical medicine has emphasized cure more than prevention. Power and use of power has something to do with this. Often doctors and other healthcare workers consider the population and patients as ignorant. When a patient question or suggests something related to her/his disease, symptoms or body, often "are you a doctor or I am a doctor" is heard from today's doctors. This attitude in healthcare is prevalent and not limited to doctors. Even nurses could be heard to show such arrogance. This must change. A person knows more about his or her body, how they feel than anyone else, including doctors. The saying "whose body is this" must be respected. Doctors must listen to what the patient is saying and take actions to empower the patient.

Full text
Abstract:
This study proposes and tests a comprehensive theory detailing the motivations behind political apologies. A brief survey of the literature shows a field rich in case studies but lacking in rigorous scientific analysis. The theory presented proposes a three-level examination of political apology at the state, dyadic, and system levels and incorporates the effects of culture, conflict, and the nature of the international system into analysis. This study makes use of a new dataset recording the occurrence of political apologies for interstate conflict atrocities from 1900 to 2006. The results suggest that the existing literature, while rich, does not account for all the motivating factors behind apology. The results also confirm that political apology is a creation of the modern era and a result of the liberalization of the international system. In conclusion, paths for future research are suggested and the advent of a global "age of apology" is confirmed.

Abstract:
FUNDAÇÃO DE APOIO À PESQUISA DO ESTADO DO RIO DE JANEIRO
Wittgenstein introduz, em seu Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus, sua célebre distinção entre dizer e mostrar. Segundo ele, o inefável é aquilo que se mostra. Denomina-o de o místico. O lugar na arquitetônica da obra das proposições que o concernem é extremamente enigmático. Como as outras passagens são classicamente mais discutidas e aquelas concernentes ao místico costumam ser consideradas mais obscuras, deter-se-á nelas de forma especial na tentativa de que uma melhor compreensão delas ajude a lançar nova luz sobre a referida distinção. Pretende-se mostrar que talvez essas passagens finais do Tractatus não sejam um elemento tão estranho quanto possa parecer. Para isso, será abordada, primeiramente, a crítica da linguagem que Wittgenstein faz no Tractatus de modo a contextualizar a elaboração da distinção entre dizer e mostrar. A seguir, mas ainda no primeiro capítulo, a operação de negação ajudará a apontar os limites entre o que pode e o que não pode ser pensado. Em um segundo capítulo, serão apresentadas algumas questões a respeito da não conformidade entre seu livro e sua teoria semântica, bem como observações sobre a inserção do místico nesta sua obra. Após delinear a proposta do Tractatus e os conflitos envolvidos em sua interpretação, em um terceiro capítulo, se tentará contribuir para o esclarecimento de alguns aspectos obscuros concernentes à referida distinção. Receberá particular atenção, neste momento, a noção de místico e a ética tractatiana.
Wittgenstein introduces, in his Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus, his famous distinction between saying and showing. According to him, the ineffable is what shows itself. He called it the mystical. The place in the architecture of his work of the propositions that concerns it is extremely enigmatic. Since the other passages are classically more discussed and those concerning the mystical used to be considered more obscures, we will focus on them in a special way in the attempt that a better understanding of them help to throw new light upon the mentioned distinction. We intend to show that perhaps these final passages of the Tractatus are not an element as strange as it may seem. In order to accomplish this, we will address first Wittgenstein’s critique of language in the Tractatus, so as to contextualize the development of the distinction between saying and showing. Next, but still in the first chapter, the operation of negation will help to point out the limits between what can and what cannot be thought. In a second chapter, we will present some issues regarding the non-conformity between his book and his semantic theory, as well as comments on the inclusion of the mystical in his work. After outlining the proposal of the Tractatus and the conflicts involved in its interpretation, in a third chapter, we will attempt to contribute to the clarification of some unclear features concerning such distinction. It will receive particular attention in this part the notion of mystical and the ethics of the Tractatus.

Full text
Abstract:
According to the Encoding Model, speakers communicate by encoding the propositions they want to communicate into sentences, in accordance with the conventions of a language L. By uttering a sentence that encodes p, the speaker says that p. Communication is successful only if the audience identifies the proposition that the speaker intends to communicate, which is achieved by decoding the uttered sentence in accordance with the conventions of L. A consequence of the Encoding Model has been the proliferation of underdetermination arguments, each of which concludes against some linguistic theory T, on the grounds that, were T true, audiences would be unable to know what was said by utterances of some particular linguistic form, and therefore unable to know what speakers intended to communicate by these utterance. The result, if we accept the conclusion of these arguments, is radical restriction of the domain of viable linguistic theory. This Thesis defends an alternative model according to which there need be nothing encoded in an uttered sentence – nothing that is said by its utterance – for the audience to retrieve. Rather, there are indefinitely many ways to interpret uttered sentences – indefinitely many routes to the propositions that speaker intend to communicate – which proceed through different interpretations of what is said.

Palfrey, Barnabas Yeo. "Theology as dialogue and fragment : saying God with David Tracy." Thesis, University of Oxford, 2013. http://ora.ox.ac.uk/objects/uuid:112f83cb-3d10-43b5-acc4-e23ba2a4df8a.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis concerns the ideas of ‘dialogue’ and ‘fragment’ in the work of the American liberal Roman Catholic theologian David Tracy (bn. 1939). Dialogue (or ‘conversation’) established itself as a dominant idea for Tracy in the 1980s, whereas the centrality of fragments first emerged for Tracy in the late 1990s, to complicate and refine his earlier thinking. Despite this historical sequence, however, the organisation of this thesis is thematic rather than essentially chronological. The first three chapters focus on how in the later 1970s and 1980s Tracy adapted his ideas of conversation-dialogue from the thought of the German philosopher Hans-Georg Gadamer. Chapter Four examines some serious objections to Tracy’s concept of dialogic reason, before defending his basic choices and gesturing towards his more recent work as perhaps resolving real previous difficulties. Chapter Five explores the ‘ontological`’ thinking of Martin Heidegger, valuable for evaluating Tracy despite the latter’s determination to put his own thinking on a more empirical and pluralistic footing. Chapter Six tackles this theme of Tracy’s ongoingly ‘empirical’ sensibility, as well as the importance he has attached to the experiencing human ‘self.’ Tracy’s ideas of human experience and selfhood owe much to William James and to Bernard Lonergan. Chapter Seven examines ‘correlational’ concepts that Tracy has forged to facilitate Christian theology over the course of his career since Blessed Rage for Order (1975). As Tracy became philosophically and theologically uncomfortable with theism as the supposed essential horizon for theology (around 1990), so the idea of the ‘mystical-prophetic’ emerged to open a door into new horizons of thinking. Chapter Eight highlights an easily overlooked antecedent of the hermeneutical negativity that Tracy’s recent ideas of ‘fragments’ imply: in Gadamer’s sense of the Christina negative ‘sign’ of the Ecce Homo. Chapter Nine then focuses on Tracy’s ideas of thinking through fragments: their adequacy and possible consequences.

Wilde, Marianne. "Seeing & saying : visual imaginings for disease causing genetic mutations." Thesis, Northumbria University, 2012. http://nrl.northumbria.ac.uk/18505/.

Full text
Abstract:
Using practice based research methodologies this thesis, Seeing & Saying: Visual imaginings for disease causing genetic mutations, explores the visual and linguistic narratives that emerge from the explanation of complex genetic diagnosis. The research, funded by the Arts & Humanities Research Council (AHRC), is being carried out in collaboration with the European Network of Excellence for rare inherited neuromuscular diseases (TREAT-NMD), coordinated by the Institute of Genetic Medicine at Newcastle University. TREAT-NMD is an international initiative funded by the European Commission linking leading clinicians, scientists, industrial partners and patient organisations in eleven countries. Located in this complex field of study, between the disciplines of art and science, this research project explores the contextual framework of the social and cultural histories that influence and give agency to the visual and text based metaphors that are used to depict and diagnose the specific genetic disease of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). The use of linguistic metaphors and visual imagery is commonplace when interpreting the how, what, why and where of DNA and it is these types of metaphorical communications that will form the basis of this investigation. This thesis interrogates and extends research methods and processes that develop from studio practice, scientific laboratories and text-based analysis thus creating a synergy between the scientific laboratory and the artist’s studio. This written thesis and the artworks produced are therefore both the narrative and the output of this collaborative relationship that represents a synthesis of the methodologies of art and science. By examining the communication between the network stakeholders of TREAT-NMD and studying how linguistic, visual and artefactual metaphors impact on the construction of technical explanations within this network, this thesis proposes that we can come closer to answering how we see and how we say genetic disease.

Abstract:
AbstractThis chapter investigates Chinese wind power development and concludes that innovation cannot be pushed by the efforts of many, and that when the state clarifies directions and objectives, these can be achieved but with severe and unexpected side effects. Two topics are explored: wind curtailment and low technological development, both examples of unproductive entrepreneurship induced by government policies. The goal of wind power capacity expansion leads to construction (i.e., generation capacity) but little electricity. Examples of failures include low grid connectivity with, some years averaging 15% of generation capacity broken or unconnected to the grid. A key lesson for Europe is that forced innovation often amounts to little and that the old saying holds up: “no plan survives contact with reality.”

Full text
Abstract:
The conversion of heat into mechanical shaft power or electrical energy is still the worldwide most used electric and propulsion energy source. Whether coal, liquid hydrocarbons, natural gas, nuclear or solar heat are used as primary energy source such cycles are continuously improved aiming at better efficiency, at flexible operating conditions or at reducing manufacturing or maintenance cost. The classic thermal power cycle design uses detailed simulation of the cycle fluid’s changes of state (typically represented by averaged pressure and temperature or specific enthalpy) along the flow paths. Components of such a cycle may be ducts, filters, mixers, compressors, combustors, heat exchangers, nozzles, turbine stages etc. The notations of exergy and anergy were invented in the nineteen-fifties but they still play an astonishingly silent role in education. Knowing already the Carnot factor a student can understand the second law of thermodynamics by the simple fact that the exergy part of energy can be converted into any other form of energy while the anergy part cannot be converted into any exergy form of energy. The most used approach via the saying “that the state variable entropy can only grow” is for most students a mental detour because they do not understand the tie of energy conversion and entropy. The exergy loss breakdown of a cycle gives an instructive view to opportunities and challenges. This paper explains methods to calculate a breakdown of the exergy losses with the example of a typical but notional turbofan using commercially confirmed component performance data. The considerations cover exergy losses by heat exchange, by combustion, by heat loss to ambient, by mixing different fluids, by internal pressure losses, by friction and dissipation in turbomachinery and by the bottoming heat discharge as well as in the propulsive process. Quantified exergy losses for such effects make the limitations of technical improvements visible without going into detailed design work. The purpose of this paper is to motivate for teaching and using exergy-based considerations especially in the basic performance simulation. Additionally the context is occasion for an extra plea on replacing the colloquial expression “energy consumption” by “exergy consumption”. The reader of this paper should have basic knowledge of thermodynamic cycle performance simulation methods and of turbomachinery.

Abstract:
SCHWEIGEN (keeping silent/saying nothing) is effective in communication as a speech act and differentiates itself from brakes that do not have communicative functions. We can differ between two forms of being silent (SCHWEIGEN): not saying anything and saying nothing. According to context and/or consituation saying nothing (SCHWEIGEN) has different various functions.

Abstract:
“A la guerra con un tenedor” es una expresión que destaca la asimetría entre medios y fines. Un Alcalde uruguayo la utiliza para ilustrar que el rol del Municipio -lo que éste hace o puede hacer- no se visualiza en la comunidad con claridad y esto se refleja en que las demandas que plantean los vecinos no se condicen con sus competencias y recursos. La experiencia comparada aporta ejemplos desde Europa y América, al respecto de entidades municipales que reflejan una tradición sólida de gobierno y gestión local. Esto no sucede en Uruguay, que recién en 2010 crea los primeros 89 municipios, y así comienza a implementar su tercer nivel de gobierno, con una primera generación de gobiernos locales. Durante décadas el país ha transitado por una serie de reformas relacionadas con la organización territorial del Estado, incluyendo desconcentración de servicios y descentralización del poder de decisión, pero el común denominador que no ha podido resolverse, es hasta el momento el binomio : debilidad – dependencia. Esta ponencia problematiza los procesos de desigualdad y diversidad territorial en los cuales se inscriben las jurisdicciones municipales y agrega información sobre las características organizaciones de los Municipios y sus recursos "To war with a fork" is a saying that emphasizes the asymmetry between means and goals. A Uruguayan Mayor used this expression to illustrate that the role of municipality -what it does or is able to do- is not clearly seen from the perspective of the community. Therefore, demands posed by neighbors do not fit with the skills and resources of the municipality. Comparative experience provides examples of municipalities in Europe and America, which has a strong tradition of local government and local management. This does not happen in Uruguay, where the first 89 municipalities were created in 2010. For decades, the country has transited through several reforms related with the territorial organization of the State, including deconcentration of services and decentralization of decision power, but the common factor has always been the binomial: weak - dependence. In this paper we question about the processes of inequality and territorial diversity and its impact in the municipal jurisdictions. Information on the organizational characteristics of Municipalities and its resources is also provided.

Abstract:
Events such as the failure and rescue of Credit Suisse and the fallout of Silicon Valley Bank re-surfaces the old saying that prudential regulators should always favor banking concentration to improve financial stability, putting monetary authorities in opposition to competition authorities. In this paper, we want to switch gears and propose a framework to analyze monetary authorities' role in fostering competition. Then, we go through the case study of Brazil's financial system regulators and compare them with Brazil's competition authority's role and the importance of inter-agency cooperation.

Abstract:
To say that we—and with “we” I mean humanity as a whole—have big challenges ahead of us would be a massive understatement. The earth’s climate crossed several crucial tipping points this year. Our lives are still overshadowed by a pandemic whose societal repercussions we do not even begin to fathom. And we are at the brink of a new era in which our biggest evolutionary advantage so far—our intellect—will be outrivaled massively by machines. I take it for granted that the only realistic chance to deal with these challenges is science and the technology we build on the basis of scientifc insight. Of course, I am not saying that science alone will be able to save the day. But just like it took a scientifcally engineered vaccine to turn things around with COVID-19, we will need more than thoughts and prayers to preserve a su¡ciently stable biosphere for our children and grandchildren...
