Abstract:
Abstract Forms of Knowledge explores the unity and heterogeneity of knowledge. Human knowledge, as we understand it in the everyday, would appear to make up a complex category, admitting of numerous forms, species, modes, or variations. Reflection on this complexity reveals a whole ecosystem of questions and issues worthy of careful philosophical investigation. Yet contemporary epistemology often tends to downplay the heterogeneity of knowledge, in part through a distinctively narrow focus (familiarly, primarily on ‘receptive’ propositional knowledge) and in part through a tendency to assume,

The most complex part of Chintang morphology is verbal inflection.

Abstract Systems consisting of many interacting constituents often show a collective behavior not predictable from the interaction of the individual constituents—such as the freezing or evaporation of a liquid. The book addresses different forms of such complex behavior, which has only been thoroughly investigated in the past few decades. Although these studies originate in physics, we show that the behavior is found to be very universal, ranging from the structure of the early universe to turbulence, Brownian motion and to the frequency of words in literary texts.

In this commemoration pax was qualified as ‘Augustan’ (pax augusta), and this may be understood as the first step towards pax becoming an imperial virtue. The analysis is then followed by an examin

Abstract:
Action and Interaction is divided into three parts. The first part focuses on the nature of action, starting with questions about action individuation, context, the notion of ?basic action? and the temporal structure of action. The importance of circumstance for understanding action is stressed. These topics lead to questions about intention and the sense of agency and ultimately to the idea that we need to consider action in the social contexts of interaction. The second part looks at the role of interaction in discussions of social cognition, building a contrast between standard theory- of-m

Abstract:
This chapter demonstrates that the mobilization of private desire for consumption and emulation was taken to new heights during the financial revolution. Patenting activities boomed in the early 1690s. The lapse of the Licensing Act gave rise to a deluge of pamphlets promoting joint-stock companies and public subscription schemes; new periodicals reported and commented on them. Equally important was the language of charity and piety that often intersected with the language of empire. Although forms of projecting became more closely aligned with incipient modern stock markets, the moral ambigui

Abstract:
'Experiencing the Frontier and the Frontier of Experience' deals with the Roman Empire’s responses to the threats which were caused by the new geostrategic situation brought on by the crisis of the 3rd century AD, induced by the ‘barbarians’ who – often already part of Roman military structures as mercenaries and auxiliaries – became a veritable menace for the Empire. Rome adopted different strategies: they oscillated between inclusion, warfare and other means of exerting influence. The contributions to this volume explore the archaeological evidence for Roman practice and especially the varyi

Abstract:
This chapter explores the composition of Deuteronomy 28, noting a parallel to the Tell Fakhariyah bilingual inscription. Scholars have developed a textual history for the Tell Fakhariyah inscription, reconstructing a complex compositional process based upon division of this inscription into parts stemming from a West Semitic hand and parts with East Semitic origin. By exploring the translation technique that governed the production of this inscription, this chapter demonstrates that it stems from a single hand who could mediate between traditions of East and West. This new understanding of the

Abstract:
Wildlife trafficking threatens the existence of many plant and animal species and accelerates the destruction of wildlife, forests, and other natural resources. It contributes to environmental degradation, destroys unique natural habitats, and deprives many countries and their populations of scarce renewable resources. The more endangered a species becomes, the greater is the commercial value that is put on the remaining specimen, thereby increasing the incentive for further illegal activities. Preventing and supressing the illegal trade in wildlife, animal parts, and plants is presently not a

Abstract:
Abstract This book analyses why it matters and how it is established that a State, international organisation, or armed group is a party to an armed conflict under international law. International lawyers have spent much time thinking about what constitutes an armed conflict. Yet, wrapped up in the question of whether there is an armed conflict is often a question of who is engaged in that conflict, since States, international organisations, and armed groups tend not to go to war alone. Although ever-present in historical and recent conflicts, that question has received little attention. Again

Abstract:
This new edition provides a guide to the main areas of financial regulation and financial law in Hong Kong. Given the massive changes in financial regulation globally as a result of the 2008 global financial crisis and post-crisis international regulatory reforms, this book addresses these changes in Hong Kong markets and their legal and regulatory frameworks, as well as the implications of these changes to future market development. The book is in five parts. The first part considers the evolution of Hong Kong’s role as a financial centre and the development of its financial regulatory struct

Abstract:
Criminal justice used to be thought of as a field autonomous from politics and the economy, with the management of crime and punishment being seen as essentially the responsibility of government. However, in recent decades, policies have been adopted which blur the institutional boundaries and functions of the public sector with those of for-profit and civil society interests in many parts of the penal/welfare complex. The impact of these developments on society is contested: Proponents of the ‘neo-liberal penality thesis’ argue economic deregulation, welfare retrenchment, individualised choic

Abstract:
Despite an output of only 7 feature films in 20 years, Andrei Tarkovsky has had a profound influence on international cinema. Famous for their spiritual depth and incredible visual beauty, his films have gained cult status among cineastes and are often included in ranking polls and charts dedicated to the best movies ever made. Beginning with the late 1980s, Tarkovsky’s highly complex cinema has continuously attracted scholarly attention by generating countless hermeneutic challenges and possibilities for film critics.

Abstract:
What happens at college parties? Why do students dress and behave the way they do? Who has power, and what kind? And are college students happy overall with party and hookup culture? In response to undergraduates’ skepticism of researchers’ accounts of hookup culture, the author engaged 126 college students as ethnographers to observe and analyze this complex social reality at parties. Part I presents their results, revealing a disillusionment with contemporary sexual and relational norms that challenges benevolent or even neutral views of hookup culture. Part II brings students into conversat
