Full text
Abstract:
This chapter argues that “the Hobbesian hypothesis” (the claim that the Lockean proviso is fulfilled: everyone is better off in a state society with a private property system than they could reasonably expect to be in any society without either of those institutions) plays a large role in contemporary justifications of the state and/or the property rights system. The search turns up few attempts to justify existing states or property rights systems without some version of the hypothesis. Theorists asserting it as an obvious truth in need of little or no supporting evidence include David Gauthier, Jean Hampton, James Buchanan, Gregory S. Kavka, George Klosko, Dudley Knowles, Christopher Heath Wellman, Robert Nozick, Jan Narveson, and many others. Critics include Alan Ryan, Carole Pateman, Charles Mills, Patricia Williams, and others. Yet all this disagreement has produce very little debate or interest in an empirical investigation of the hypothesis.

Abstract:
‘You expected bread, and you have got a stone; break your teeth on it, and don’t shriek…you will have learned the great lesson how to endure without a sob.’ Shirley is Charlotte Brontë’s only historical novel and her most topical one. Written at a time of social unrest, it is set during the period of the Napoleonic Wars, when economic hardship led to riots in the woollen district of Yorkshire. A mill-owner, Robert Moore, is determined to introduce new machinery despite fierce opposition from his workers; he ignores their suffering, and puts his own life at risk. Robert sees marriage to the wealthy Shirley Keeldar as the solution to his difficulties, but he loves his cousin Caroline. She suffers misery and frustration, and Shirley has her own ideas about the man she will choose to marry. The friendship between the two women, and the contrast between their situations, is at the heart of this compelling novel, which is suffused with Brontë’s deep yearning for an earlier time.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter examines two related, but distinct, political concepts — justice and freedom. It first considers various possible constraints on freedom before discussing the degree to which freedom is desirable. It then explores various alternative values that might conflict with freedom, mainly in the context of John Stuart Mill's political thought; these include equality, paternalism, and happiness. The chapter proceeds by analysing the concept of justice and various criteria for determining its meaning in the context of the major competing theories of justice provided by John Rawls and Robert Nozick. Finally, it evaluates alternative theories of justice which challenge the conventional liberal view that theories of justice should focus only on the nation-state and are applicable only to human beings.

Full text
Abstract:
Victorian Liberalism and Material Culture assesses the unexplored links between Victorian material culture and political theory. It seeks to transform understanding of Victorian liberalism’s key conceptual metaphor: that the mind of an individuated subject is private space. Focusing on the environments inhabited by four Victorian writers and intellectuals, it delineates how the commitment of John Stuart Mill, Matthew Arnold, John Morley, and Robert Browning liberalism was shaped by or manifested through the physical spaces in which they worked. The book also asserts the centrality of the embodied experience of actual people to Victorian political thought. Readers will gain new historical and literary understanding and will be introduced to an innovative methodology that links material culture and political theory.

Abstract:
In 1919, rebels seeking to discredit President Carranza kidnapped Jenkins, but once his friends had paid the ransom he found himself jailed for having concocted the episode, a move that outraged hawkish US politicians and almost provoked an armed intervention. As Carranza looked for a successor he might manipulate as his puppet, rebels abducted Jenkins from his mill, targeting him for his wealth and his status as US consular agent. After his release and subsequent jailing, Senator Albert Fall and Secretary of State Robert Lansing tried to use the “insult” as a final-straw pretext for an invasion; the Revolution had seen loss to American life and property and multiple kidnappings. But the plan failed when Carranza had Jenkins released. The affair gave birth to a Machiavellian Jenkins “Black Legend” and marked an evolution in gringophobia, whereby US businessmen rather than politicians were perceived as Mexico’s chief exterior threat.

Attanasio, John. The Principle of Distributive Autonomy. Oxford University Press, 2018. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780190847029.003.0008.

Full text
Abstract:
Modern libertarians regard themselves as ideological opposites to egalitarians. The principle of distributive autonomy is at strong odds with modern conceptions of libertarianism, but perhaps not so much with the original conception of John Stuart Mill. Modern individualistic libertarianism also has strayed from Immanuel Kant's conception of autonomy. This chapter applies Robert Nozick’s widely acclaimed, and richly elaborated, conception of liberty to demonstrate how the new theory of distributive autonomy differs. John Rawls’s principle of equal liberty proceeds from egalitarian starting points. In contrast, the principle of distributive autonomy uses the importance or value of autonomy itself to justify keen attention to its distribution, even in the area of first-order rights. The principle focuses on (but is not limited to) constitutive rights in foundational areas that constitute the government and larger society. The campaign finance cases violate rather than safeguard autonomy by reversing congressional efforts to protect distributive autonomy.

Full text
Abstract:
The 20th century witnessed a spectacular progress in uncovering the mysteries of sleep which continues in this 21st century. Concomitantly there is increased awareness about the importance of sleep and its disorders. Gaps, however, remain in many areas, particularly in the neurological aspects of sleep medicine, which is ironic as sleep is of the brain, by the brain, and for the brain. Despite availability of two to three neurologically oriented short books, there is a need for a new text covering the topic in a succinct and lucid manner, emphasizing the practical aspects of sleep neurology. This monograph is basically a clinical compendium but also provides an underlying basic science and technical background. The book should be useful to both the beginners and those advanced in the field, and is primarily directed at neurologists as well as internists, general practitioners, psychiatrists, psychologists, pediatricians, neurosurgeons, otolaryngologists, dentists, intensivists, neuroscientists, and those interested in advancing their knowledge in sleep and its disorders (eg, technologists, nurses and other healthcare professionals). To paraphrase Robert Frost, we still have “miles to go” before we sleep.

Erchinger, Philipp. Artful Experiments. Edinburgh University Press, 2018. http://dx.doi.org/10.3366/edinburgh/9781474438957.001.0001.

Full text
Abstract:
What is the connection between Victorian writing and experiment? Artful Experiments seeks to answer this question by approaching the field of literature and science in a way that is not so much centred on discourses of established knowledge as it is on practices of investigating what is no longer or not yet knowledge. The book assembles various modes of writing, from poetry and sensation fiction to natural history and philosophical debate, reading them as ways of knowing or structures in the making, rather than as containers of accomplished arguments or story worlds. Offering innovative interpretations of works by George Eliot, Robert Browning, Mary Elizabeth Braddon and others, alongside in-depth studies of philosophical and scientific texts by writers such as John S. Mill, Thomas H. Huxley, George H. Lewes and F. Max Müller, Artful Experiments explicates and re-conceives the relations between the arts and the sciences, experience and language as well as practice and theory. For many Victorians, the book argues, experimentation was just as integral to the making of literature as writing was integral to the making of science.

Pool, Robert. Beyond Engineering. Oxford University Press, 1997. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780195107722.001.0001.

Full text
Abstract:
We have long recognized technology as a driving force behind much historical and cultural change. The invention of the printing press initiated the Reformation. The development of the compass ushered in the Age of Exploration and the discovery of the New World. The cotton gin created the conditions that led to the Civil War. Now, in Beyond Engineering, science writer Robert Pool turns the question around to examine how society shapes technology. Drawing on such disparate fields as history, economics, risk analysis, management science, sociology, and psychology, Pool illuminates the complex, often fascinating interplay between machines and society, in a book that will revolutionize how we think about technology. We tend to think that reason guides technological development, that engineering expertise alone determines the final form an invention takes. But if you look closely enough at the history of any invention, says Pool, you will find that factors unrelated to engineering seem to have an almost equal impact. In his wide-ranging volume, he traces developments in nuclear energy, automobiles, light bulbs, commercial electricity, and personal computers, to reveal that the ultimate shape of a technology often has as much to do with outside and unforeseen forces. For instance, Pool explores the reasons why steam-powered cars lost out to internal combustion engines. He shows that the Stanley Steamer was in many ways superior to the Model T--it set a land speed record in 1906 of more than 127 miles per hour, it had no transmission (and no transmission headaches), and it was simpler (one Stanley engine had only twenty-two moving parts) and quieter than a gas engine--but the steamers were killed off by factors that had little or nothing to do with their engineering merits, including the Stanley twins' lack of business acumen and an outbreak of hoof-and-mouth disease. Pool illuminates other aspects of technology as well. He traces how seemingly minor decisions made early along the path of development can have profound consequences further down the road, and perhaps most important, he argues that with the increasing complexity of our technological advances--from nuclear reactors to genetic engineering--the number of things that can go wrong multiplies, making it increasingly difficult to engineer risk out of the equation. Citing such catastrophes as Bhopal, Three Mile Island, the Exxon Valdez, the Challenger, and Chernobyl, he argues that is it time to rethink our approach to technology. The days are gone when machines were solely a product of larger-than-life inventors and hard-working engineers. Increasingly, technology will be a joint effort, with its design shaped not only by engineers and executives but also psychologists, political scientists, management theorists, risk specialists, regulators and courts, and the general public. Whether discussing bovine growth hormone, molten-salt reactors, or baboon-to-human transplants, Beyond Engineering is an engaging look at modern technology and an illuminating account of how technology and the modern world shape each other.

Abstract:
El libro constituye la edición parcial y anotada de un manuscrito inédito de Robert Lehmann-Nitsche en el cual el estudioso alemán reunió un conjunto de poemas que se cantaban en el área cultural del Río de la Plata entre fines del siglo XIX y principios del XX. Los textos que integran el manuscrito se corresponden con las versiones grabadas en un fonógrafo por el mismo investigador en la ciudad de La Plata entre los meses de febrero y mayo de 1905. La amplia variedad de géneros poéticos y musicales presentes en este, y la diversidad de registros de escritura, narrativas y personajes que ellos abordan,dan cuenta de la pluralidad de actores, prácticas y representaciones propias de los escenarios urbanos de entresiglos, en el momento en que la cultura criolla de carácter fundamentalmente rural y los estilos de vida de miles de inmigrantes europeos, comenzaban a fusionarse y a plasmar nuevas formas de convivencia. En el pasado, el conjunto de poemas que editamos en este libro eran poseedores de una naturaleza lúdica y transformadora como parte de las expresiones que los habitantes urbanos empleaban para describir, domesticar y comprender el mundo emergente, y para delinear una frontera entre sus peculiares formas de ser y esa otredad amenazante que pugnaba por establecer zonas particulares de familiaridad. En la actualidad, estos mismos poemas testimonian el carácter fundante e inestable de esa realidad, con letras y músicas que operaron como un campo de experimentación en el cual escritores, músicos, lectores y oyentes intentaban reconfigurar y vigorizar sus viejas identidades desterritorializadas. La edición ofrece una caracterización general del manuscrito y nuestro juicio sobre la perspectiva teórico-metodológica desplegada por Lehmann-Nitsche en torno a la recolección de los poemas y a la confección del manuscrito, partiendo desde una coordenada cultural que intenta reanimar en los textos parte de esa profusión de actores sociales y juegos de exotización y reconocimiento, que evita tanto un estricto análisis de tipo estilístico-literario como otro de orden estructural-musicológico. Asimismo, a partir de una selección representativa y anotada del corpus, intentamos establecer relaciones con el fenómeno de la literatura popular impresa en sus vertientes criollistas y europeizantes, dando cuenta de cómo ha sido comprendida la emergencia de dicha literatura por otros investigadores. Si bien en este trabajo está presente una larga tradición de estudios textualistas que afecta al análisis formal y a la exaltación de las figuras del escritor y del lector, intentamos además, un poco en sentido divergente de esa tendencia, poner de relieve el consumo auditivo de estas expresiones llevando a un primer plano al sujeto que no se constituye sólo como un individuo lector fascinado por la flamante adquisición de la tecnología de la lecto-escritura, sino también como un consumidor de esos mismos textos a partir de su condición de oyente. El objetivo último es hacer confluir el desarrollo de todos estos aspectos en una cuestión que ha sido obsesivamente abordada por las ciencias sociales y las humanidades desde el romanticismo: las relaciones entre las llamadas cultura popular y letrada, y entre los medios de comunicación orales y escritos. En este sentido, la edición del manuscrito ha sido casi un pretexto para reflexionar en clave cultural sobre el proceso que atravesaron los centros urbanos rioplatenses en ese período y marcó el rumbo que adoptaron tanto la literatura como la música popular en las décadas siguientes.Con estas expectativas en el horizonte, brindamos, en primer lugar, una descripción del ambiente sociocultural urbano de la época resaltando la incidencia de las inmigraciones interna y externa, el plan modernizador y el proyecto educativo emprendidos por el Estado, la aparición de un circuito de literatura popular impresa y su interacción con el circuito letrado. En segundo término dedicamos un apartado a la figura de Lehmann-Nitsche a fin de comprender cómo operó en su labor eso que Hans-Georg Gadamer (1991) definió como pertenencia a una tradición de pensamiento. Con ese objetivo establecemos un diálogo entre los textos que componen el manuscrito, la colección de literatura popular impresa también reunida por Lehmann-Nitsche, conocida como, las monografías que dedicó a temas y personajes gauchescos, y su libro Textos Eróticos del Río de La Plata (1981). En tercer lugar exponemos nuestras reflexiones sobre aspectos contextuales, literarios y musicales de los poemas para introducir la selección de textos anotados con transcripciones musicales. Un CD con registros sonoros tomados por Lehmann-Nitsche y reproducciones de imágenes de la época pertenecientes a su Legado completan la publicación.
