Повний текст джерелаABSTRACT Science and religion are two important foundations of human society. They both have a direct or indirect influence on peoples lives. However, in common sense it has been consolidated the idea that there is an irreconcilable conflict installed between reason and faith. Such antagonism has trivial advertising. Sometimes a reductionist approach to the subject is noticed, and thereby harmful images are perpetuated to the progress of these fields of knowledge, and thus a delay for civilization as a whole. When studying the scientific development throughout history, it is inevitable to consider its relationship with religious thought, or systems of religious belief, or even with religious institutions. Therefore, this work has the purpose to discuss the relationship between science and faith, from a historical perspective. Under these terms, this research seeks to understand the possibility of progress in both science and religion , under a reality of relative equilibrium and, perhaps, a more productive exchange between science and religion. The general literature on this subject was researched in order to learn the state of the art of this debate. From reading and systematically selecting the collected data, classifying and organizing it, several views on the subject were gathered to contribute to the reflection of the theme and show how it is a broad discussion. It was possible to conclude that the theory of conflict is not a satisfying explanation for the historical evidence. The relationship between science and religion is complex and multiple-sided, and they have contributed to the development of one another, consciously or not. This study opens up possibilities for a constructive interaction between the areas of knowledge.

American society has been heavily influenced by religion, since before the United States existed as a nation. It has provided a sense of providential guidance and protection that has shaped or influenced internal politics and foreign policy alike. How were attitudes toward expansion and imperialism affected by religion throughout American history? Was the resultant ideology consistent? If not, what changed to cause a shift? The purpose of this thesis is to explore those questions. Using a wide breadth of material including primary and secondary sources, this thesis demonstrates that society was heavily influenced by religious rhetoric, whether spoken from the pulpit or in print. It further demonstrates how political leaders and religious leaders utilized rhetoric of divine causation and justification in addition to more tangible factors such as economics or security for expansionist thought. Significantly, concepts of racism were justified or reviled in religious terms. Ironically, opposing views on these topics both chose to use religion as their weapon to prove their points. Culminating at the time of the Spanish-American War of 1898, and the follow-on Philippine-American War, the imperial debate was heavily influenced by religion and was a milestone in transforming American national policy and thought.

. Epistemic structural realism is a realist position of which proponents claim that the only knowable part of the reality is the structure of it which is expressed by the mathematical equations of our best scientific theories. On the other hand, according to entity realism, the only assured knowledge obtained from scientific theories is the existence of theoretical entities posited by these theories. I argue that a combination of the properly construed versions of these two positions might fulfill the afore-mentioned aim of this thesis.

Why are some countries more technologically innovative than others? The dominant explanation amongst political-economists is that domestic institutions determine national innovation rates. However, after decades of research, the empirical evidence for this relationship remains equivocal. There are simply many countries with "good" institutions that do not innovate at the technological frontier, and many countries with "bad" institutions that have nonetheless built impressive records of technological progress. Therefore, in this dissertation, in order to probe the sources of variance in national innovation rates, I analyze quantitative data on innovation, various domestic institutions, and four types of international relationships. First, I review the National Innovation Systems literature. Second, I test the Varieties of Capitalism theory of innovation. Third, I ask whether decentralized states are better at technological innovation than centralized states. In each case, I find that there exists little empirical evidence for an aggregate relationship between domestic institutions and technological innovation. That is, although a specific domestic institution or policy might appear to explain a particular instance of innovation, they fail to explain national innovation rates across time and space.
(cont.) However, the empirical evidence does suggest that a country's international relationships may be the missing piece to the national innovation rate puzzle. More specifically, the evidence presented in this dissertation suggests that certain kinds of international relationships (e.g. capital goods imports, foreign direct investment, educational exchanges) do affect national innovation rates in the aggregate. And countries which have these kinds of relationships with the lead innovating nations tend to become more innovative than states which do not, almost regardless of their domestic institutions. In other words, explaining national innovation rates may not be so much a domestic institutions story as it is an international story. My empirical evidence includes data on simple patent counts, patents weighted by forward citations, science and engineering publications (both simple counts and citations-weighted), and high-technology exports.

The United States has developed a reputation for consistently failing to respond to mass killing and genocide throughout history. The conventional wisdom is that the United States has the resources and intelligence to act, but fails to do so because of a lack of political will. However, a closer examination of history reveals that although the modal response of the United States is indeed to refrain from devoting significant resources to these crises, at times the United States reverses course to pursue policies aimed at assisting victims of atrocity. Previous analyses have not fully explained the sources this policy variation. Drawing on extensive archival research, this dissertation proposes a theory explaining when these shifts in US policy occur. I suggest that three factors-the level at which dissent occurs within the government, the degree of congressional pressure, and the direction of a variable that I term political liability-are responsible for shifting US policy toward a more robust response. I illustrate the theory with case studies covering US responsiveness to the following cases: the Holocaust (193 8-1945) under presidents Franklin D. Roosevelt and Harry S. Truman; mass killing in Bosnia (1992-1995) under presidents George H.W. Bush and William J. Clinton; and mass killing in Rwanda (1994) under Clinton.

Повний текст джерелаFollowing the commencement of the French Revolution in 1789, a debate erupted in the Atlantic world known as the Burke-Paine Debate. This debate was part of a larger Atlantic movement known as "the pamphlet war" of the 1790s, a series of polemical writings concerning the pros and cons of the Revolution. Alarmed at the broad scope of the French Revolutionaries, Englishman Edmund Burke opened the pamphlet war in 1790 with a scathing rebuke entitled Reflections on the Revolution in France. This in turn elicited the response of Thomas Paine, who derisively rebuked Burke in kind in 1791 with Rights of Man, supporting the Revolution's ostensible aim toward republicanism. This thesis examines how the ideas which animated the Burke-Paine Debate influenced the debate over the expansion of democracy in the early American republic. While the Debate influenced political discussion throughout the nineteenth century, it also serves as a paradigm for the creation of a dichotomy between liberal and conservative politics. The thesis provides a comparative analysis of how the ideas of Burke and Paine were received, reported, and repackaged during the nineteenth century, providing as well an intellectual history of the roles of ideas in American history.

How have changes in the elite discussion of reproductive health narratives affected the debate on abortion and influenced state legislation and popular opinion? Using analysis of broadcast transcripts from CNN and FOX News, I examine the arguments articulated by politicians, activists, and members of the media on issues concerning reproductive health. I argue that, beginning in 1996, conservatives used the venue provided by broadcast media to seize on changes to the political climate and frame debate to their advantage. Continually, conservatives forced liberals into reactionary positions through discussion of "partial-birth abortion," expansion of narratives, and-most recently-misinformation. By dictating the terms of the discussion, conservatives lessened the impact of liberal narratives and saw gains in state legislation and public opinion as a result.

Повний текст джерелаThe body’s new frontier is both an esthetic and scientific quest, with the wild dream of reaching an ideal beauty and immortality - or at least living better and longer. In California, the body and its cult are so important therefore we can safely say that it is a religion. This religion of the body is primarily linked to the Divine since in the classical point of view, the body is either linked to sin or is a way to reach God, as the oriental religions believe. From ancient Greece to the oriental influences, not forgetting how the body is perceived in California’s history and its relationship to the Divine, we will slowly become aware that this link is somehow being overshadowed by a personal appropriation of the body both triggered by the 1960’s narcissism and social norms. The typical californian seeks experiment and pushes boundaries using the body as a medium, while striving to reach physical perfection. Of course this cannot go without the growing of a massive market, hence the connexion between the religion of the body and its mercantile aspect. That link not only reflects the amount of products and services as well as the whole industry behind them, it also brings forward the fact that the body is considered as an object one has to invest in and capitalize on both the future and the present moment. As in all types of religion, there is a part of fanaticism and going astray. Its impact cannot be overlooked. The ultimate question is the role of science in the body’s evolution. What has become the new scientific religion of the body slowly replaces the initial link to the Divine, bringing mankind towards more knowledge, mastery, and control over its destiny

Повний текст джерелаAu cours de la dernière décennie, les mécanismes de diffusion des normes internationales aux contextes domestiques ont connu un regain d'intérêt. Il n'en demeure pas moins d'importantes lacunes dans la construction théorique de ces mécanismes. En effet, très peu d'attention a été accordée aux diffusions de ces normes dans des contextes qui n'y sont pas réceptifs, du fait de la valorisation par la société de normes contraires à celles prescrites.En se basant sur l'émergence, croissance, et développement du mouvement anti-crime d'honneur en Jordanie (1980 jusqu'à présent), ce mémoire cherche à expliquer comment les normes internationales des droits des personnes, plus particulièrement « droit à la vie », sont devenues plus saillantes dans ce contexte. Dans ce mémoire, il est soutenu que le succès de la promotion de normes dans un contexte de décalage culturel repose sur la capacité stratégique d'acteurs domestiques fortement motivés. Ces efforts peuvent cependant être entravés par l'existence des institutions qui sont à la base des normes existantes et l'émergence des contre-mouvements qui cherchent à défendre les normes et coutumes déjà établies. Ce mémoire propose en outre que la pression internationale peut avoir des effets diverses et imprévus dans la promotion des nouvelles normes dans les contextes où les normes déjà existantes sont enracinées dans la soiété. Plus spécifiquement, dans les cas où ces instances internationales manque de légitimité au sein la population locale, ces efforts peuvent se retourner et finir par provoquer un retranchement et un rejet de la norme déviante.

This dissertation is an examination of the foreign policy debates during and about the Korean War that played out in America's leading political opinion journals from 1950-1953. From left to right along the ideological spectrum, these journals include The Nation, The New Republic, Commonweal, The New Leader, The American Mercury, and The Freeman. Such an analysis uncovers some of most important ideological currents that ran through American political and intellectual life during the mid-20th century and challenges some long-standing historiographical assumptions about this period in American political and intellectual history. First, the foreign policy debates inspired by the Korean War were much more robust than is typically appreciated. Second, there was consistent and substantive disagreement between different camps of liberals, namely, between left liberals and hawkish liberals, to the point that hawkish liberals often favored positions more aligned with those of conservatives than with those of their fellow liberals. This tension between different strands of liberalism suggests that the notion that a "liberal consensus" reigned supreme in American political and intellectual life during the early years of the Cold War may be in need of qualification or revision. Third, the conservative arguments made in the pages of publications like The Freeman and The American Mercury reveal that the conservative movement was much more coherent and mature in the early 1950s, years before the emergence of William F. Buckley, Jr.'s National Review, than is generally thought. In sum, an examination of the "forgotten debate" about this forgotten war has much to teach us about the political and intellectual history of the United States in the mid-20111 century and beyond.
