Force Content and the Unity of the Proposition

Force Content and the Unity of the Proposition

This volume advances discussion between critics and defenders of the force-content distinction and opens up new ways of thinking about force and speech acts in relation to the unity problem. The force-content dichotomy has shaped the philosophy of language and mind since the time of Frege and Russell. Isn’t it obvious that for example the clauses of a conditional are not asserted and must therefore be propositions and propositions the forceless contents of forceful acts? But others have recently asked in response how can a proposition be a truth value bearer if it is not unified through the forceful act of a subject that takes a position regarding how things are? Can we not instead think of propositions as being inherently forceful but of force as being cancelled in certain contexts? And what do assertoric but also directive and interrogative force indicators mean? Force Content and the Unity of the Proposition will be of interest to researchers working in philosophy of language philosophical logic philosophy of mind and linguistics.

Disaggregating Diasporas as a Force in Role Contestation Mobilising the Marginalised in Foreign Affairs

Disaggregating Diasporas as a Force in Role Contestation Mobilising the Marginalised in Foreign Affairs

Using a Role Theory lens this book investigates Tamil diaspora mass movements and interest groups as marginalised forces of domestic foreign policy influence. Until now Role Theory has not considered diaspora mass movements as collective action actors nor looked at how marginalised diasporas influence elite foreign policy decision-making. Matthew K. Godwin employs a comparative micro-level decision-making narrative that looks incisively at decisions faced by the British and Canadian governments in 2009 and 2013 towards the Sri Lankan civil war and its aftermath. Through qualitative elite-level interviews and content analysis of other primary source data Godwin convincingly argues that when diaspora interest group elites are leveraging the power of mass movements in concert with credible partisan advocates they can influence role contestation. However international institutional constraints on role behaviour may stymie their preferred role performance especially if states are indispensable to the institutions their behaviour may unravel. Ultimately Godwin concludes that some states can't behave badly even when they want to. This book will be of interest to students and researchers of lnternational Relations Foreign Policy Analysis Comparative Politics Migration Studies and to non-government organisations who seek to influence governments. | Disaggregating Diasporas as a Force in Role Contestation Mobilising the Marginalised in Foreign Affairs

The New Nationalism

The New Nationalism

Nationalism the state of mind in which the individual's supreme loyalty is owed to the nation-state remains the strongest of political emotions. As a historical phenomenon it is always in flux changing according to no preconceived pattern. In The New Nationalism Louis Snyder sees various forms of nationalism and categorizes them as a force for unity; a force for the status quo; a force for independence; a force for fraternity; a force for colonial expansion; a force for aggression; a force for economic expansion; and a force for anti-colonialism. In Snyder's opinion nationalism should be differentiated from Theodore Roosevelt's New Nationalism a phrase he borrowed from Herbert D. Croly's The Promise of American Life. Croly warned that giving too much power to big industry and finance would lead to the degradation of the masses and that state and federal intervention must be pursued on all economic fronts. Roosevelt expanded upon this concept and saw the flourishing of democratic government as a means of reviving the old pioneer sense of individualism and opportunity. Snyder in contrast extends the work of the two major pioneers in the study of modern nationalism Carlton J. H. Hayes and Hans Kohn in exploring this most powerful sentiment of modern times and showing how it relates to the political economic and psychological tendencies of historical development.

Allied Air Attacks and Civilian Harm in Italy 1940–1945 Bombing among Friends

Allied Air Attacks and Civilian Harm in Italy 1940–1945 Bombing among Friends

Tens of thousands of Italian civilians perished in the Allied bombing raids of World War II. More of them died after the Armistice of September 1943 than before when the air attacks were intended to induce Italy’s surrender. Allied Air Attacks and Civilian Harm in Italy 1940–1945 addresses this seeming paradox by examining the views of Allied political and military leaders Allied air crews and Italians on the ground. It tells the stories of a little-known diplomat (Myron Charles Taylor) military strategist (Solly Zuckerman) resistance fighter (Aldo Quaranta) and peace activist (Vera Brittain) – architects and opponents of the bombing strategies. It describes the fate of ordinary civilians drawing on a wealth of local and digital archival sources memoir accounts novels and films including Joseph Heller’s Catch-22 and John Huston’s The Battle of San Pietro. The book will be of interest to readers concerned about the ethical legal and human dimensions of bombing and its effects on civilians to students of military strategy and Italian history and to World War II buffs. They will benefit from a people-focused history that draws on a range of eclectic and rarely used sources in English and Italian.

Executive Talent Developing and Keeping the Best People

Executive Talent Developing and Keeping the Best People

This brilliant up-to-date compendium argues that the most successful factor in company life is good people: individuals who are capable competent and savvy. Can corporate life attract such people? Ginzberg argues that despite demographic dislocations and the challenges to the work ethic the answer to this question is a loud yes. In Executive Talent Ginzberg and his colleagues show how to attract train and promote a superior work force and how to take advantage of the different values in today's employees. Over 25 percent of the population currently graduates from a senior college and the number going for advanced degrees is climbing. Blacks and Hispanics together will soon account for one in every four new native-born job applicants. Women are now nearly as prevalent in the work force as men. Today's employees place more emphasis on family and leisure and less on company loyalty. In the face of these critical changes companies can no longer continue with the same human resource policies. Ginzberg offers new approaches to attract and retain superior talent. In Executive Talent Ginzberg brings together top academics and high level executives to explore the new world of work. They discuss coming trends and changes that will reshape the talent pool how these shifts will impact the individual company and ways to develop and implement a human resource strategy to meet the challenging work force of the future. | Executive Talent Developing and Keeping the Best People

Military Rules Regulations and the Code of War Francis Lieber and the Certification of Conflict

Military Rules Regulations and the Code of War Francis Lieber and the Certification of Conflict

Military commanders from ancient time had set down rules and regulations to discipline their troops. From the Pharaohs on commanders directed the strategy tactics and camp discipline of the often unruly hosts of soldiers under their command. They had one aim: to create an efficient fighting force. Military officers camp-followers and cooks were all expected to perform their services according to mandate and in light of the best interests of the armed force and the fighting soldiery. Modern commanders have exemplified the same passion for military discipline to produce an effective combat machine. Military analyses derived from Roman law contained enough historical examples to fill an encyclopedia. Yet although addressed to the problems of their day they generally remained the private counsel of scholars and had little impact on political and military decisions. While theorists of international law were developing a body of rules to govern warfare practitioners of conflict were largely moved by the motives of military necessity. Under the dual auspices of military necessity and national self-interest the code of the military commander was simple: maintain a disciplined fighting force in order to achieve military victory. To remedy this gap between theory and practice a practical guide was needed which would briefly describe for commanders in the field the rights and obligations of belligerents as custom and theory had developed them. Then political and military policy could be expected to conform to the theoretical law of nations. This was the synthesis that the Lieber code proposed. Originally published in as Lieber's Law and the Code of War this paperback edition bears a new title that more precisely identifies the subjects covered. | Military Rules Regulations and the Code of War Francis Lieber and the Certification of Conflict

Social and Cultural Change in Contemporary Wales

Social and Cultural Change in Contemporary Wales

Social and Cultural Change in Contemporary Wales (1978) draws together recent research specifically on Wales to overcome the overly-English takes on the ‘social structure of modern Britain’. A pattern of relative social deprivation is outlined and such symptoms of this deprivation as second home ownership school closure economic peripheralism and inadequate social services become the marker of Wales’ marginality. The cultural marker of note is the Welsh language several of the papers discussing its erosion and the steps taken to preserve and maintain it. While ethnicity serves as an integrating force there are also divisions based upon class which are discussed.

China's Use of Armed Coercion To Win Without Fighting

China's Use of Armed Coercion To Win Without Fighting

This book analyzes when how why and to what effect China has used its armed forces in recent decades to coerce other actors in the international system. Over the past 20 years China’s international status as a “great power” has become undeniable. China’s “peaceful rise” has included substantial investments in military modernization and an increasingly assertive regional posture. While China has not waged war since 1979 it has frequently resorted to what the U. S. State Department has referred to as “gangster tactics” – threats intimidation and armed confrontation – to advance its strategic aims. This volume illuminates the ways in which China has employed its military and paramilitary tools to coerce other states and examines the motivations and specific foreign policy objectives that China has pursued using force short of war. The study presents new analysis of an original dataset on coercive actions undertaken by China’s armed forces taking into account the political objectives pursued and the environmental contexts in which these operations occurred. It also presents a series of expert case studies addressing the most consequential examples of China using force to coerce in recent decades. The volume contributes to a more historically informed empirically based understanding of great power competition. This book will be of much interest to students of Chinese security and foreign policy strategic studies Asian politics and International Relations. | China's Use of Armed Coercion To Win Without Fighting

Population and Development in the Third World

Population and Development in the Third World

Allan and Anne Findlay argue that a nation's human population is a vital resource in the development process. Changes in its composition - increased life expectancy combined with a falling birth rate for example - can have profound effects upon a society. Warfare and mass migration of male workers also have long-reaching effects on those left behind. The rapid growth of Third World populations has often incorrectly been identified as the major force preventing more rapid economic development. Population pressure has been known to generate technological breakthroughs. Their final chapter examines family planning programmes and concludes by asking who benefits most from population policies and questioning the right of developed countries to advocate family planning programmes for Third World nations. | Population and Development in the Third World

Rats Lice and History

Rats Lice and History

When Rats Lice and History appeared in 1935 Hans Zinsser was a highly regarded Harvard biologist who had never written about historical events. Although he had published under a pseudonym virtually all of his previous writings had dealt with infections and immunity and had appeared either in medical and scientific journals or in book format. Today he is best remembered as the author of Rats Lice and History which gone through multiple editions and remains a masterpiece of science writing for a general readership. To Zinsser scientific research was high adventure and the investigation of infectious disease a field of battle. Yet at the same time he maintained a love of literature and philosophy. His goal in Rats Lice and History was to bring science philosophy and literature together to establish the importance of disease and especially epidemic infectious disease as a major force in human affairs. Zinsser cast his work as the biography of a disease. In his view infectious disease simply represented an attempt of a living organism to survive. From a human perspective an invading pathogen was abnormal; from the perspective of the pathogen it was perfectly normal. This book is devoted to a discussion of the biology of typhus and history of typhus fever in human affairs. Zinsser begins by pointing out that the louse was the constant companion of human beings. Under certain conditions to wash or to change clothing lice proliferated. The typhus pathogen was transmitted by rat fleas to human beings who then transmitted it to other humans and in some strains from human to human. Rats Lice and History is a tour de force. It combines Zinsser's expertise in biology with his broad knowledge of the humanities

The Interplay Between Gender Markets and the State in Sweden Germany and the United States

The Interplay Between Gender Markets and the State in Sweden Germany and the United States

This title was first published in 2001. The development of gender relations during the post-war period in Sweden Germany and the US forms the core of this work. It looks at the hierarchical relations between men and women based on economic political social and biological differentiations. The analytical focus is primarily on how actors cultural norms and institutional arrangements interrelate and affect the relative position of men and women to create patterns/forms of gender relations that vary across countries and change through time. The main advantages of a comparative study is that it highlights the differences and similarities of the countries being compared. This book argues that social blocks involving a stable system of relations that have challenged and become embedded into institutional arrangements are the main force creating differences in the patterns of gender relations across the countries. | The Interplay Between Gender Markets and the State in Sweden Germany and the United States

Work and Authority in Industry Managerial Ideologies in the Course of Industrialization

Work and Authority in Industry analyzes how the entrepreneurial class responded to the challenge of creating and later managing an industrial work force in widely differing types of industrial societies: the United States England and Russia. Bendix's penetrating re-examination of an aspect of economic history largely taken for granted was first published in 1965. It has become a classic. His central notion that the behavior of the capitalist class may be more important than the behavior of the working class in determining the course of events is now widely accepted. The book explores industrialization management and ideological appeals; entrepreneurial ideologies in England's early phase of industrialization; entrepreneurial ideologies in eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Russia; the bureaucratization of economic enterprises; and the American experience with -industrialization. This essential text will interest those in the fields of political science industrial relations management studies as well as comparative sociologists and historians. | Work and Authority in Industry Managerial Ideologies in the Course of Industrialization

Experiments in Film and Philosophy

Experiments in Film and Philosophy

Christopher Falzon argues in this book for a new way of understanding film as philosophy. Inspired and informed by the work of Michel Foucault Falzon shows how a motion picture can operate not simply as a thought experiment but as a form of experience-centred experimental reflection. It is film’s ability to show viewers things that challenge their way of thinking giving them experiences that can make them think differently that gives the film its status as philosophy. Through these cinematic experiences not only cultural norms and presuppositions but also cinematic conventions and even established philosophical positions can be interrogated and questioned. Experiments in Film and Philosophy explores three films in the light of this new way of thinking about philosophy and film: Jean-Luc Godard’s Breathless Rubin Ötlund’s Force Majeure and Jonathon Glazer’s Under the Skin. It will be of interest to advanced students and scholars interested in the current debates about the relationship between film and philosophy.
