"What a piece of work is a man, how noble in reason, how infinite in faculties, in form and moving how express and admirable, in action how like an angel, in apprehension how like a god: the beauty of the world, the paragon of animals! And yet to me what is this quintessence of dust?" In his angry and depressed state, Hamlet finds no consolation in his fellow human beings, but that's not to say that he doesn't attribute them with many fine qualities. But what are we to make of this 'quintessence of dust'? What a piece of work is a (hu)man? How are we to understand ourselves? What's more to the

This study is an ethnography of Oka-Soiot human-animal relations in the Eastern Saian Mountains of westernmost Buriatia in South Central Siberia. It follows ten herder-hunter households from their winter residences to their summer camps, describing their year-round relations with dogs, reindeer, horses, and wolves. Although known in Russian literature as descendants of the people who first harnessed and saddled reindeer, contemporary Soiot herder hunters have shifted their skills to other species. Yet they continue to share with their Tozhu, Tofa, and Dukha neighbours a heritage of hunting, ai

Abstract:
This thesis addresses the question of whether morality needs to be grounded in theory of human nature. I argue that it does not. Two pressures incline us towards the view that morality must be grounded in such a theory. The first of these is the thought that the absence of belief in a divine law giver creates special problems for the putative authority of moral considerations. If we are to avoid moral scepticism, so this line of thought goes, we must show how moral requirements serve or express our natural purposes. The second pressure is the observation that moral codes vary based on contexts

This research is about improvisation. By applying a compare and contrast view, it examines two successful organizations operating in the same market. Each company chose a different way of structurally coping with market requirements; one applied a traditional structure with a top-down strategy whereas the other relied on a bottom-up improvisational setup. The dissertation discusses the concept of improvisation emerging from behavioural disciplines into organizational and management research and the problems with applying an exclusively positivist measurement on it.

Abstract:
This thesis is the articulation of a doctrine of creation centred on the concept of creation’s praise. It aims to make care for the environment a habitual expression of Christian faith by fostering a kinship between human and non-human. The thesis attempts to achieve this by developing the claim that non-humanity and humanity are united in a joint project of praise. This argument is developed through bringing biblical texts into conversation with voices from the Christian tradition and, in so doing, trusting that Scripture might allow us to know the presence of God in our own context.

The person has in theory been at the center of the law since Gaius divided the private law into persons, things, and actions. In constructing the person, however, the law takes apart and sets aside the human being, replacing it with a legal abstraction that diverges markedly from it. This gap is partly due to the way the law has been structured conceptually, as a set of bounded categories clearly distinguished from each other. Viewing the person as the result of a series of either/or classificatory decisions privileges the liberal model of the person: a partimonialized, transactionalize
