Full textAbstract:
The Oxford Handbook of Positive Psychology studies the burgeoning field of positive psychology, which, in recent years, has transcended academia to capture the imagination of the general public. The book provides a roadmap for the psychology needed by the majority of the population—those who don’t need treatment, but want to achieve the lives to which they aspire. The articles summarize all of the relevant literature in the field, and each is essentially defining a lifetime of research. The content’s breadth and depth provide a cross-disciplinary look at positive psychology from diverse fields and all branches of psychology, including social, clinical, personality, counseling, school, and developmental psychology. Topics include not only happiness—which has been perhaps misrepresented in the popular media as the entirety of the field—but also hope, strengths, positive emotions, life longings, creativity, emotional creativity, courage, and more, plus guidelines for applying what has worked for people across time and cultures.

Full textAbstract:
Socioeconomic position (SEP) refers to the relative place an individual or a social group holds within the structure of society. SEP is determined by a multitude of factors, from individual and household circumstances across the life course to social processes operating at higher levels. Even though a complex construct, it is often operationalized using single person-based indicators and/or subjective measures of an individual’s own perceived position in the social ladder. Furthermore, recognizing that social stratification is geographically defined, area-based measures place a community in the socioeconomic disadvantage continuum and are used to quantify the magnitude of geographically defined social inequalities Data driven approaches have been mostly used to construct socioeconomic deprivation indices, commonly using census-based indicators which reflect the sociodemographical compositions of areas. Increasingly, a wider set of methods are been used to capture features of a community’s environment pertaining to the physical, built and social environment.

Civil society organizations have played various roles in promoting the capture of benefits from and protection against the negative impacts of extractive industries. Payment disclosure is one potentially powerful tool for such organizations to promote greater local benefit capture. Practitioners and academics have noted, however, that transparency alone does not equate to accountability. This is true in the extractive sectors, where political dynamics pose serious obstacles. The cases of Ghana and Peru provide examples of these dynamics. Strategies for overcoming them include strengthening the technical capacity of civil society organizations, providing civic education, targeting interventions better, and learning more deeply from positive examples.

Full textAbstract:
David Burrell uses the image of a transformative pilgrimage to capture what is at issue when the notion of religious understanding is introduced. This chapter challenges the naturalist’s objection to the very idea of there being a journey in this sense, grants with John Cottingham that the transformation is moral and spiritual, and considers what it could mean for such understanding to be theoretical as well as practical. Further questions arise concerning the “fuel” of this transformative journey, and Levinas claims that it is motivated by desire. This chapter considers the merits of his position and concludes that it offers the shape for a model of religious understanding which can genuinely appeal to an expansive, i.e., nonscientistic, naturalist.

Full textAbstract:
By observing the authorial intentions on the part of the novelist and the adapted film’s producer, screenwriter, director, and cast, Chapter 11 examines the intratextual process at work in the transformation of Philip Roth’s novella The Dying Animal to the big screen as Elegy. The notion of serial authorship can capture the creative interaction of intentions characteristic of the multi-source nature of film adaptation, whose products serve two texts: the source literary work and the screenplay derived from it. The essay considers the hints of Roth’s personal views and autobiography implied through his narrator, David Kepesh, and this character’s relationships with women, as well as through the implied author’s own position as a writer—a self-conscious status the film does not engage.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter discusses the targeted killing by the US of Osama bin Laden in Pakistan and of Anwar al Awlaki in Yemen, and the capture of Ahmed Abu Kattalah in Libya. It presents the facts and context of the actions, the legal position of the US and other protagonists and reactions in the international community. It proceeds to discuss the arguments for and against the legality of these extra-territorial actions by the US under law regarding use of force (but not under ius in bello). In the final section it is argued that rather than having precedential value the actions and reactions in these cases serve to emphasize the wide gap that exists in the different perceptions of states and scholars regarding the law on the extra-territorial use of force against terrorist groups or other groups of non-state actors.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter examines how the PRI’s candidate selection and recruitment changed from the hegemonic to the democratic era to capture how electoral competition strengthened the governors at the expense the corporatist sectors and other PRI groups. Under hegemony, the president controlled (through choosing or vetoing) which PRI politician appeared on the ballot, and thus could punish or benefit ambitious politicians within the wide-flung coalition. Once competition grew, however, a candidate’s popularity with voters began to weigh on these decisions and governors began to demand control over nominations for subnational and federal posts. Regime leaders had to devolve power over federal candidacies to state executives because of their ability to win votes for the party, decentralizing the party. National party leaders won a good deal of control over the closed-list PR seats for both the Chamber and the Senate. Most party-affiliated unions lost nomination power because they were unable to choose popular candidates or procure electoral victories, weakening their position within the party.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter discusses investment benchmarking and measurement bias in hedge fund performance. A good benchmark should be unambiguous, investible, measurable, appropriate, reflective of current investment opinions, specified in advance, and accountable. Additionally, a good benchmark should be simple, easily replicable, comparable, and representative of the market that the benchmark is trying to capture. Several biases, such as database selection bias, survivorship bias, style classification bias, backfill bias, self-reporting bias, and return-smoothing bias exist that impede the process of creating a benchmark. These biases increase the difficulty of studying hedge fund returns and managerial skill. However, most of the academic research on hedge fund returns report positive alphas for hedge funds.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter provides a comprehensive overview of the ways religion and science have been related to each other since the nineteenth century, taking into account contemporary debates on the role of the church in society and of the professionalization of science. There are at least four different positions on how to conceptualize the relationship: the conflict thesis, the complexity thesis, the dynamism thesis, and the discursive perspective. Most discussions of the relationship between religion and science operate with a conceptual distinction that defines ‘religion’ and ‘science’ as clear, separate categories, which then are related to each other, creating rigid dichotomies. The chapter discusses integrative and discursive approaches that are more suitable to capture the complexity of meanings of ‘religion’ and ‘science’ and that attempt to move beyond problematic dichotomous constructions. Two case studies demonstrate the usefulness of discursive approaches for the study of religion and science.

Zahavi, Dan. Husserl's Legacy. Oxford University Press, 2018. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780199684830.001.0001.
Full textAbstract:
What is ultimately at stake in Husserl’s phenomenological analyses? Are they primarily to be understood as investigations of consciousness, and if so, must they be classified as psychological contributions of some sort? If Husserl is engaged in a transcendental philosophical project, is phenomenological transcendental philosophy then distinctive in some way, and what kind of metaphysical import, if any, might it have? Is Husserlian phenomenology primarily descriptive in character, is it supposed to capture how matters seem to us, or is it also supposed to capture how things really are? Husserl’s Legacy offers an interpretation of the more overarching aims and ambitions of Husserlian phenomenology and engages with some of the most contested and debated questions in phenomenology. Central to its interpretive efforts is the attempt to understand Husserl’s transcendental idealism. The book argues that Husserl was not a sophisticated introspectionist, nor a phenomenalist, nor an internalist, nor a quietist when it comes to metaphysical issues, and not opposed to all forms of naturalism. On a more positive note, Husserl’s Legacy argues that Husserl’s phenomenology is as much about the world as it is about consciousness, and that a proper grasp of Husserl’s transcendental idealism reveals the fundamental importance of facticity and intersubjectivity.

Simon, Gleeson. Part III Investment Banking, 15 Counterparty Risk in the Trading Book. Oxford University Press, 2018. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/law/9780198793410.003.0015.
Full textAbstract:
This chapter sets out rules that result in certain exposures being treated as having a greater degree of risk than their actual mark to market value. In order to explain this, consider a bank which owns 100 of shares in A, but also has a derivative in place with X under which it is entitled to be paid the value of 100 shares in A. Both positions give rise to the same risk as to the future price of A, and both will be valued by reference to the value of the shares in A. However, if the value of the shares in A increases, the bank's credit exposure to X will increase. The rules set out in this chapter seek to capture this extra level of risk by treating the value of the derivative as being slightly higher than its mark to market value; thereby requiring a slightly higher level of capital to be held against it. This is the counterparty credit risk requirement (CCR).

Bhatia, Sunil. Stories and Theories. Oxford University Press, 2017. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780199964727.003.0004.
Full textAbstract:
Narrative inquiry is particularly suited to capture how individuals make meaning of their identities as they engage with mutually shifting global–local cultural interactions. This chapter lays out the conceptual framework that examines how globalization shapes the narrative imagination and how it provides insights into understanding the psychology of globalization in urban India. It argues that individuals use narrative and stories as language-based equipment to express their subject positions and give meaning to the uniqueness and singularity of their experiences. Being interpellated by power structures or created through systems of cultural power does not mean there is no room for individual story-making or agency. The urban Indian youth make and remake their identities as they narrate stories of their lives through the lens of their social class; rootedness in history of colonization and postcolonial culture; exposure to discourses of globalization; and embeddedness in social practices of education, employment, and traditions.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter focuses on the boundaries between historical and political argument. It discusses the different ways that British antiquity could be politicized by historical writers of the eighteenth century. However, despite this, Boudica maintained a patriotic detachment from party fracases in prose literature. This is compared to her presentation in Richard Glover’s new play of 1753. Aside from questions of patriotism, Glover’s play brings to the fore drama’s relationship to history, and especially the fidelity to human nature that was demanded of both genres. Glover’s inability to accurately capture the spectrum of human emotions attracted extensive criticism, demonstrating another measure of ‘accuracy’ contemporaries applied to historical writing. With regards to Boudica herself, this chapter begins to consolidate the argument that Boudica’s reputation was rather more durable and positive than previous scholars have allowed.

Garrett, Don. Postscript Shared Attributes and Monism Revisited. Oxford University Press, 2018. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780195307771.003.0006.
Full textAbstract:
Chapter 3 (“Ethics 1p5: Shared Attributes and the Basis of Spinoza’s Monism”) develops replies on Spinoza’s behalf to two objections (the “Hooker-Bennett objection” and the “Leibniz-Bennett objection,” respectively) to his demonstration in Ethics 1p5d that substances cannot share an attribute. Both of these replies appeal to a positive aspect of the priority of substance over its modes: that modes are in and conceived through their substances. In his important 2002 article “Spinoza’s Substance Monism,” Michael Della Rocca develops replies to the objections that appeal instead to a negative aspect of the priority: that substances are not in or conceived through their modes. This postscript argues that neither of the negatively based replies is satisfactory on its own within the argumentative structure of the Ethics and that the positively based replies of Chapter 3 are more likely to capture Spinoza’s own thinking about the impossibility of shared attributes

Tallgren, Immi. The Faith in Humanity and International Criminal Law. Oxford University Press, 2017. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780198805878.003.0015.
Full textAbstract:
International criminal law is at times taken to manifest fundamental consensual boundaries against violence and destruction of the human species. The faith in law is celebrated in a cult with rituals, symbols, and mythologies where law is saving humans from evil. This chapter takes issue with the transcendental reference in ‘humanity’ by situating it within discussions on religion, the non-deist religions in particular. Three French thinkers: Henri Saint-Simon, Auguste Comte, and Emile Durkheim are stimulating intellectual figures—often neglected or caricatured. They developed new visions for society as religions–creating dogmas, symbolism, and ritual practices. Yet they declared the transcendental divinities dead. The human individual and ‘humanity’ were further elevated yet declared ‘positive’, victorious over superstition. Their religions aimed to capture the best of two worlds: secular and religious, rational and affective. But what difference does it make to see ideas, beliefs, faith, or commitment as religious or as something else, such as politics or ideology?

Aquaculture is a solution in providing animal nutrition for humans. Capture fishing and aquaculture are the two main sources of fisheries production in Indonesia. Indonesia is one of the world's top exporters of fisheries products. Fish have a unique growth pattern. Fish use available nutrients for the reproductive process as they get older, but there is still a positive contribution to growth. The requirements for optimum temperature, feed, and growth period for juvenile and adult fish may be different. Reproduction in organism, including aquatic animals, is controlled by hormones. Hormones involved in reproduction such as steroids, FSH, LH, estradiol etc. In aquaculture, the increase in growth and reproduction in fish and crustaceans uses a lot of synthetic hormones, which there are still many weaknesses. The use of natural product is one of the environmentally sustainable options for increasing growth and reproduction. There have been many applications of natural products that have been able to improve growth and reproduction, such as the use of celery, Karamunting, Katuk, Paku Uban and Turmeric. Some of the references to this book are the result of the author's research that has been published in various national and international journals

Full textAbstract:
En el presente libro se exponen diversas experiencias con sistemas agroforestales en el país, como la utilización del tamarugo y algarrobo para obtención de frutos y follajes para alimentación animal, el uso de especies forrajeras como Atriplex spp. y de uso múltiple como Acacia saligna, de las estepas de Acacia caven con fines forrajeros y producción de leña, en la zona norte; se muestran resultados de la utilización de pino radiata y otras especies como nogal, castaño, pino piñonero y otras, en sistemas silvopastorales en la zona central y centro sur; y sistemas combinados con pino ponderosa o con formaciones nativas de lenga, ñirre y radal, en la Patagonia donde el frío y el viento hacen muy convenientes los sistemas silvopastorales y la incorporación de cortinas cortavientos, por el abrigo que proporcionan al ganado. El libro presenta además, experiencias de uso no tradicional de los bosques, mediante la recolección y aprovechamiento de productos forestales no madereros (PFNM), ya utilizados por los primeros habitantes de Chile como parte de su dieta alimenticia, y se destacan otros efectos positivos de los sistemas agroforestales, como aquellos relacionados con el ambiente, que se expresan en captura de carbono y protección de suelos y aguas, sobre los cuales se presentan también experiencias y resultados

Resumos do I Encontro Brasileiro de Petrofísica de Campos Maduros. Editora Realize, 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.46943/i.ebpcm.2022.01.000.
Full textAbstract:
Nos dias 22, 23 e 24 de março de 2022 ocorreu o I Encontro Brasileiro de Petrofísica de Campos Maduros (EBPCM), no formato virtual, reunindo profissionais de operadores, prestadores de serviço, agências regulatórias e associações profissionais, além de membros da academia. O evento foi organizado pela seção brasileira da Sociedade de Petrofísicos e Analistas de Perfil (SPWLA). O evento nasceu a partir da crescente demanda e interesse de diferentes players do mercado de óleo e gás na revitalização de ativos disponíveis a partir do agressivo plano de desinvestimento implementado pela Petrobras. O baixo fator de recuperação desses campos, quando comparados a média global e o notável histórico de declínio em suas produções, indicam que é crítica a adoção de diferentes técnicas de avaliação de formação, que possam permitir de maneira eficiente e economicamente viável a extensão de sua vida útil. Portanto, O I EBPCM buscou promover o intercâmbio de conhecimento técnico e científico, compartilhando lições aprendidas e divulgando soluções tecnológicas inovadoras e eficientes, com o apoio dos diferentes atores, sejam da indústria ou do meio acadêmico. Ao longo dos 3 dias de evento, contamos com 28 palestras – incluindo 2 em sessão plenária, 3 minicursos e uma mesa redonda. Foram discutidos técnicas de avaliação de formação a poço aberto e poço revestido, estudos de caso de áreas brasileiras, modelagem para recuperação avançada, aspectos de captura e armazenamento de carbono e aspectos econômicos relacionados. A sessão plenária, por Mariana Cavadinha (ANP) e Austin Boyd (UFRJ) reforçou a importância do evento. Mariana apresentou o panorama da exploração dos campos maduros brasileiros e como a ANP está agindo para incentivar o setor. No aspecto técnico, Austin apresentou os muitos desafios relacionados a avaliação petrofísica dos campos maduros – corroborando que o aspecto técnico da avaliação desses reservatórios ainda tem espaço para evolução e discussões. Com foco nos novos rumos da área de petrofísica, uma mesa redonda discutiu a aplicação de inteligência artificial na área, contando com participações de Marcos Amaral e Sylvia Anjos (ABGP), Anna Paula Lougon (Schlumberger), Prof. Cleyton de Carvalho Carneiro (USP), Márcio Martins (Rock Care) e Milena Siqueira (Halliburton). O balanço dos 3 dias de apresentações e discussões foi altamente positivo. Nas próximas páginas deste livro, o leitor encontrará resumos das apresentações que compuseram o I EBPCM. Até a próxima edição!
