Abstract:
In the Introduction I briefly lay out the history of the value terms that I will be considering in my thesis and consider the philosophical relevance of the development of such values in the 5th century. The infiltration of modern ideas of morality into what was considered to be good to the Greeks has a great influence on the literature and philosophy of this period. Plato prioritises these quiet moral virtues, but also tries to hang on to some of what had come before, and thus faces difficulties with his moral theory. I will show that courage presents Plato with an acute difficulty when attem

Platon se sert dans le Lachès du courage comme d'un outil pour accomplir une transvaluation en faveur de la vérité avant de le passer sous silence. Une lecture critique du dialogue fait apparaître cette double opération. Elle permet également de mettre en évidence les fondements d'une alternative au système de la vérité. Le courage devient, plutôt que son auxiliaire, le principe d'une connaissance renonçant à l'essence pour recevoir la chose dans l'intimité d'une peur accueillante. Cette possibilité d'une compréhension intéressée est reprise par Nietzsche qui, repensant dans le cadre de la vol

Abstract:
While the old adage of “it takes a village…” is often stated in reference to raising children, this statement is also extremely applicable in combating social problems such as intimate partner abuse (IPA). All too often society members turn a “blind eye” to abuse occurring within our homes between intimate partners. Although recent research has shown improvement in attitudes condemning IPA, other research has identified that many individuals continue to perceive IPA as largely a private problem (Bethke & DeJoy, 1993; Straus, Kaufman Kantor, & Moore, 1997).

While sanctions proliferated after the Cold War, concerns remain about their effectiveness and humanitarian impact. In addressing these concerns, scholars have offered diverse frameworks generally emphasizing sanctions' design or application.

In fact, lacking political will has been characteristic of sanctions cases and the root of sanctions' failures. Significantly, the cost-benefit calculus informing policymakers' political will has been systematically incomplete. Sanctions are often judged on
