<p>This thesis interprets John Dewey’s theory of the moral life in the global context in order to shed a light on major ethical challenges of the process of globalization. Dewey’s perspective provides an explanation of (1) formation of the individual commitments to particular sets of values,(2) justification of the responsibilities to the distanced peoples as opposed to the responsibilities to the nearest and dearest peoples and (3)the meaning of democratic social arrangements on the global scale.</p><p>In order to find a theoretical basis for justification of democracy in the globalizing worl

Abstract:
The dissertation explores the conflict between interests and values, manifested in the European Union‘s policy in Uzbekistan. EU has sound economic and political interests in Central Asia, however their implementation is often hindered by a dissension on values. The differences in ideologies and political cultures between the EU and Uzbekistan lead to the situation where further unilateral emphasis on values and principles may cause a buildup of tension in relations. Analysis of the EU-Uzbekistan relations implies, that dominant thinking on the EU‘s side is to take the growing tension in relat

Abstract:
This thesis examines the concept of the state in the context of the Indus River Valley, located in northwest India and Pakistan. In the first section, I synthesize several popular trends in state discussion from both inside and outside of archaeological theory. I then apply my synthesized approach to state definition to the archaeological record from the Indus River Valley. The resulting work visits both the concept of the state and the rich cultural history of the Indus Civilization. I determine that there was a state in the Indus River Valley, but that the Indus state was very different from

Abstract:
Frances Wright attempted to reform America between 1825 and 1839. Her activities were unlike any other for a woman of her time. In public lectures to audiences of men and women throughout the East and Midwest, she spoke on the evils of orthodox religion and advocated abolition, equal rights, and universal education for all people regardless of gender or class. In both action and thought, she challenged all notions of nineteenth-century womanhood. Wright's public career helps illuminate the history of antebellum American reform because it reflects the ferment and range of such activity.This stu

Abstract:
Socialinė utopija yra stabiliausia žmonijos svajonė apie tobulą visuomenės būseną. Nematomu siūlu ji susieja tarpusavyje daugumą epochų ir savo šaknimis siekia tolimąją praeitį, atrasdama save žmonijos svajonėse apie „aukso amžių“. Būtent todėl kai kurie tyrinėtojai laiko socialinę utopiją vienu seniausių ir fundamentaliausių mitų. Utopijos esmės apmąstymams skirta daug filosofų, istorikų, sociologų darbų, tačiau iki šiol mokslinėje literatūroje neegzistuoja vieningo viešai pripažinto „utopijos“ sąvokos apibrėžimo.

This creative project is a study of cultural awareness in architecture. The hypothesis states that architecture is one of many cultural manifestations in a society. One seeking contemporary architecture in a society should explore the idea of contemporary culture in that society. This study aims to point out the relationship of living patterns and living spaces (culture and architecture). Living patterns are influenced by their own cultures and, at the same time, the characteristics of living spaces reflect the aspects of living patterns.

Basée sur l’idée de progrès, la science moderne, d’inspiration cartésienne, est perçue par Simone Weil comme la principale cause de la crise moderne des valeurs. Sous-tendue par le mouvement droit, elle a perdu le principe d’analogie et s’est, de la sorte, dessaisie du monde ambiant des réalités quotidiennes. Aussi apparaît-elle non seulement comme à la source du scientisme, de la croyance en une raison scientifique autonome et du culte rendu aux applications techniques, mais aussi à l’origine du capitalisme industriel, du communisme révolutionnaire, du totalitarisme, de l’effondrement de l’or

This thesis is an ethnographic study of the pursuit of kametsa asaiki (‘the good life’) in an Ashaninka village by the Bajo Urubamba River (Peruvian Amazonia). My study centres on Ashaninka social organization in a context made difficult by the wake of the Peruvian Internal War, the activities of extractive industries, and a series of despotic decrees that have been passed by the Peruvian government. This is all framed by a change in their social organization from living in small, separated family-based settlements to one of living in villages. This shift presents them with great problems when

Celui-ci apparaît lié à un rapport spécifique à l'espace et au temps, que les élites brésiliennes reprennent à leur compte, soucieuses de gagner la reconnaissance d'une appartenance au monde civilisé.

Abstract:
In my dissertation Happiness and Superlative Value in the Eudemian Ethics, I analyze dimensions of the Eudemian Ethics (EE) that, as I see it, make the EE a distinctive contribution to ethics. The EE discusses a superlative excellence called kalokagathia, the virtue of being-beautiful-and-good, which does not figure in the Nicomachean Ethics (NE). The agent who possesses kalokagathia is the best agent of Aristotle’s EE. Scholars tend to hold that the practically wise person, the phronimos, or the theoretically wise person, the sophos, are the best agents of the NE. If my reading of the EE is r
