Abstract:
This article sets its investigative goal on determining the medical knowledge of medieval physicians from 1347-8 to 1351 concerning the causes of plague. As the plague killed a third of Europe’s population, the contemporary witness at the time perceived God as the sender of this plague to punish the human society. However, physicians separated the religious and cultural explanation for the cause of this plague and instead seek the answer to this question elsewhere. Developing on traditional medical knowledges, physicians classified the possible range of the plague’s causes into two areas: univ

AbstractThe four Arab Human Development Reports, 2002-2005, sponsored by the United Nations Development Program and written by over one hundred Arab scholars based in the Middle East and elsewhere, have attracted more attention and controversy than any other official studies of development in recent years. The Reports are controversial in at least two respects: First, they adopt a conception of development as freedom that excludes all economic variables. Second, they emphasize three major themes, building a knowledge society; expansion of political freedoms; and women's empowerment, that chall

H.G.Wells’ The Time Machine is a famous scientific fiction, but it is rich in theme. It might be regarded as a political fable or a dystopia as well as one of the first works of science fiction. Since the publication of this novel, studies on The Time Machine have mainly focused on the aspects of its genre and narrative art, and only a few studies were conducted from the linguistic perspective. Through a corpus-based method, this paper focuses on how Wells expresses his concerns about social class division and the degradation of human society in The Time Machine.

Abstract:
Human racial studies in North Korea have been introduced as early as the 1940s. These works have been consolidated to a coherent discipline in the interests of human studies in general. The initial term of human races in North Korea has focused attention on a rather biological aspect. The human races are classified in a morpho-typological sense; these are regarded as biologically diverse units, not arbitrary units. Currently, the term has not only been determined as biological forms, but also been regarded as socio-cultural units. The Northern scholars have deeply considered the racial process

AbstractLike elsewhere in Africa, local forms of Islam are being challenged by a number of new reformist and revivalist forms of Islam, influenced to some degree by a global Islamic revival but shaped by particular local histories and politics.

Central to this struggle are the young men who have studied Islam abroad and who challenge the established truths of the traditional religious authorities; these authorities in turn accuse 'the youth' of bringing foreign, 'Arab' ide

On entry to parliament, parliamentarians go through a period of identity transformation akin to a moral career. Parliamentarians must manage emotion to achieve their occupational identities according to local feeling rules. Based on analysis of in-depth group and individual

These devices have two roles: to promote an ethical connection from consumer to producer and to involve the consumer in the work of fair trade through purchasing behaviour and political action.

Abstract:
This interdisciplinary study of violence in medieval Iceland pursues three intertwined goals. First, it proposes a new cultural history model for understanding violence. The model has three axes: power, signification, and risk. Analysis in instrumental terms, as an attempt to coerce others, focuses on power. Analysis in symbolic terms, as an attempt to manipulate meanings, focuses on signification. Analysis in cognitive terms, as an attempt to exercise agency over imperfectly controlled circumstances, focuses on risk. The axis of risk is the model’s major innovation and is laid out in detail,

Abstract People watch the actions of leaders, and it resonates, says Mr Albanese, the soft-spoken former top gun at the $47.7 billion mining giant Rio Tinto, who completes one year as CEO of Vedanta group an Indian conglomerate in mining sector. In the implementation and measurement of corporate sustainability the ‘Tone from the Top’ is critical, especially while attempting to usher in a fundamental change in the corporate culture of a company, which is perhaps the most reviled in global attempts to manage for sustainability. Over the years, Vedanta has been mauled by civil society campaigns over its human rights record, in India and elsewhere, and has also incurred the wrath of large global investors. According to Albanese, who has issued notes to key levels of management that his two ‘no-compromise positions are safety and integrity’ even as he looks deeper in to the tenets of responsible mining and sustainable development at Vedanta Group. Senior management at Vedanta also recognizes that Vedanta’s social license to operate has been frayed and that it is about time to retrieve the situation. ‘We have been unable to operate at our full capacities,’ says Albanese, underlining the need to regain trust and the societal license. There is indeed a strong business case to be responsible. Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) measures are certainly welcome, but it can only be a small component of an overall approach. While Albanese is deeply appreciative of Vedanta’s CSR programmes, he is clearly uncomfortable with the charity of approach; the idea of creating a ‘dependency relationship’ between a company and communities.

Full text
Abstract:
Turing gave the presentation ‘Intelligent Machinery, A Heretical Theory’ on a radio discussion programme called The ’51 Society. Named after the year in which the programme first went to air, The ’51 Society was produced by the BBC Home Service at their Manchester studio and ran for several years. A presentation by the week’s guest would be followed by a panel discussion. Regulars on the panel included Max Newman, Professor of Mathematics at Manchester, the philosopher Michael Polanyi, then Professor of Social Studies at Manchester, and the mathematician Peter Hilton, a younger member of Newman’s department at Manchester who had worked with Turing and Newman at Bletchley Park. Turing’s target in ‘Intelligent Machinery, A Heretical Theory’ is the claim that ‘You cannot make a machine to think for you’ (p. 472). A common theme in his writing is that if a machine is to be intelligent, then it will need to ‘learn by experience’ (probably with some pre-selection, by an external educator, of the experiences to which the machine will be subjected). The present article continues the discussion of machine learning begun in Chapters 10 and 11. Turing remarks that the ‘human analogy alone’ suggests that a process of education ‘would in practice be an essential to the production of a reasonably intelligent machine within a reasonably short space of time’ (p. 473). He emphasizes the point, also made in Chapter 11, that one might ‘start from a comparatively simple machine, and, by subjecting it to a suitable range of ‘‘experience’’ transform it into one which was more elaborate, and was able to deal with a far greater range of contingencies’ (p. 473). Turing goes on to give some indication of how learning might be accomplished, introducing the idea of a machine’s building up what he calls ‘indexes of experiences’ (p. 474). (This idea is not mentioned elsewhere in his writings.) An example of an index of experiences is a list (ordered in some way) of situations in which the machine has found itself, coupled with the action that was taken, and the outcome, good or bad. The situations are described in terms of features.
