Abstract:
What is the highest good? In the ethics of René Descartes, we can distinguish between at least seven different answers to this question: (a) God; (b) the sum of all the different goods that “we either possess . . . or have the power to acquire” (CSMK, 324/AT 5, 82); (c) free will; (d) virtue; (e) love of God; (f) wisdom; and (g) supernatural beatitude. In this paper, I argue that each of these answers, in Descartes’s view, provides the correct particular conception, relative to a distinct sense or concept of the highest good. Just as there are seven different conceptions of the highest good, a

Abstract:
Kant conceives of moral agents as autonomous, capable of motivating themselves to act on a self-given rule of reason, independently of – and even against – their inclinations. Moreover, Kant's moral theory tells agents to realize their autonomy, by striving to do what is right for its own sake. It is because of Kant's emphasis on autonomy that his notion of the highest good has been a topic of controversy. From Kant's time onward, commentators have suspected that the highest good, which promises virtuous agents happiness proportionate to their goodness, introduces heteronomy into morality. The

Tertiary education is the most important form of spending, and most educational spending is performed for individuals 18-23 years old.

Abstract:
n 2005 the National Park Service (NPS) Southeast Coast Network (SECN) Inventory and Monitoring Program began collecting water-quality data in the estuarine waters near Cumberland Island National Seashore (CUIS) as part of the NPS Vital Signs monitoring program. The continuous-monitoring data station is located on the Sea Camp dock. This station collects pH, dissolved oxygen, temperature, salinity, conductivity, turbidity, and water level data every 15 minutes. Southeast Coast Network staff make additional water-quality measurements, which include monthly measurements of water-clarity condition

Abstract:
This Insight Note argues that political will is a decisive factor in explaining both the homogeneity in the expansion of schooling and the heterogeneity in the expansion of learning, and introduces three takeaways as necessary conditions for a meaningful and sustained prioritisation of learning: The highest authorities of a country have the political will to prioritise learning. The highest authorities of a country want to get every child learning (as they define learning goals as universal goals). The highest authorities of a country adopt a long-horizon view to reap the benefits of a learnin

In 2010 the National Park Service (NPS) Southeast Coast Network (SECN) Inventory and Monitoring Program began collecting water-quality data in the estuarine waters near Fort Matanzas National Monument (FOMA) as part the NPS Vital Signs monitoring program. The continuous-monitoring data station is located at the visitors center dock. This station collects pH, dissolved oxygen, temperature, salinity, specific conductance, turbidity and water-level data every 30 minutes. The FOMA fixed-station water-quality monitoring site is part of the SECN estuarine water-quality monitoring program, which rout
