Abstract:

Silences exist in global health ethics scholarship because of the particular caricatures of Africa that abound in the world, and these silences profoundly impact scholarship in this field. In this paper, I outline three such silences. The first concerns the consequences of representations of Africa as a place of theoretical scarcity, where the only theory seemingly worth mentioning is relational ontology. The second issue I highlight is the impact of dehumanization on global health and ethics. The third concerns the expectation that African science should serve the goal of development, which l

The In Dialogue piece in this issue, brings together Megan Seneque Aggie Kalungu-Banda, Martin Kalungu-Banda and Sharon Munyaka, to explore how different knowledge systems, including science, can be brought into conversation in an effort to democratize knowledge and support transformative societal change. The vehicle for this exploration is the philosophy and practice of Ubuntu, and how this is being brought to life across the African continent in the context of the Ubuntu.Lab and the Ubuntu Institute.

Abstract:

In Africa, refusal of COVID-19 and other vaccines is widespread for different reasons, including disbelief in the existence of the virus itself and faith in traditional remedies. In sub-Saharan countries, refusal is often made worse by opposition to vaccines by the religious establishments. This is a pressing problem, as Africa has the highest vaccine-avoidable mortality rate for children under the age of five in the world. Dialogue between those wishing to promote vaccines and those who resist them is essential if the situation is to be improved. This article argues that Western and other aid

Taking this into account, the author articulates fundamental world-views for the canonical form of design science research, which involves instantiation of the outcomes as a software artifact.

Whether individuals hold static or dynamic worldviews underlies a number of contemporary controversies, including evolution/creationist debates, the reality of climate change, and application of treaty rights by Indigenous cultures. In this last case the debate is often framed in terms of whether or not Indigenous cultures are still using traditional methods when engaged in hunting, fishing, or harvesting. My purpose is to evaluate these issues by arguing that traditional means quite different things in different cultural traditions. In Western cultures, whose roots lie in static worldviews, e

Using Professor Cheng’s method, I claim that in the West there began a humanistic tradition that bears affinities to Confucius and which itself is now being transformed by its encounter with non-European thought.

Since the time when the human race first began to speculate about the origin of the universe there have been two cosmological models that have seemed particularly attractive to its imagination. One has been to derive everything in the world from a single primal origin, out of which the cosmos, in all its apparent complexity, evolves. The other has been to view the history of the universe as a battle between two opposing forces which contradict and undermine each other. The two views can be called monism and dualism. They are not the only possibilities. There have been systems that posit three,

Spirituality in historical and modern traditions has minimally amounted to relating oneself to a larger or higher systemic whole, which confers meaning to particular cases of existence.

The contrast between logical and analogical thinking is illustrated by the representative views of Frege and Nietzsche.

Based on Wittgenstein's philosophy of language, it is argued that neither of the two perspectives is absolute, but that both should complement each other.

The idea of divine justice has shaped religious thought for centuries, offering a way to understand how God deals with right and wrong. In classical theology, scholars like Augustine, Aquinas, Al-Ghazālī, and Maimonides viewed justice as a fixed moral order where God rewards good and punishes evil according to divine wisdom. Today, however, many theologians are rethinking this concept. The aim of this study is to explore how divine justice has been understood in both classical and modern theology, and how those views respond to issues like human suffering, inequality, and pluralism.

The research is devoted to the ethical views of Vladimir Monomakh, reflected in the “Teaching” of the Grand Duke. The author’s reflections concerning such fundamental moral categories as good and evil, virtue and vice, the meaning of life and death, free will, duty, happiness are considered and analyzed. A partial continuity of the Grand Duke’s views concerning the relationship to the categories of good and evil, as well as virtue and vice, with the Byzantine Christian tradition, in particular with regard to the “theory of three small deeds”, which is based on the theory of repentance of John

Abstract:

Ian Markham's contribution to the Cambridge New Studies in Christian Ethics considers plurality rather than pluralism. The distinction is important for Markham. The latter concept is identified with the relationship of Christianity to world religions and with the thought of john Hick. The former is concerned with the fragmentation of culture, both intellectually and morally. Can there be a distinctive, if not exclusive, Christian position in such a world? Plurality is therefore defined phenonemologically: “the reality of differing and conflicting traditions (or world views) arising in differin

Abstract:

Comparing is a base operation in the description of foreigners. Yet, its role in Hellenistic ethnography is still understudied. The paper looks at practices of comparing in the ethnographic texts of Polybius, Posidonius and Strabo in the 2nd and 1st century BC, which served to integrate the (newly discovered) peoples of western Europe into Greek views of the world. It shows both that the conquest of these areas by the Romans changed Greek perceptions of western ‘barbarians’ and that older ethnographic traditions were still retained.

Abstract: In this article, I examine the issue of charity in Matthew's Gospel, and specifically his directives on almsgiving as it is described in the Sermon on the Mount in 6:2–4. While almsgiving was a standard form of piety in Judaism, Matthew's particular version of the practice has significant differences that eventually redefined charity and delineated the Christian practice. Although there has been much discussion on this topic, the role that the Greek world and especially Hellenistic philosophical thought played in the formation of Matthew's views has been ignored. Here I examine Matth

Do all religions worship the same God? Sometimes this question is answered positively, sometimes negatively. Various reasons are given. In the first four sections of this paper we will analyse arguments which affirm or deny that all religions worship the same God. We will see that different types of argument are used. Some authors base their answers to our question on their theological insights (section 1); others defend their thesis with reference to the results of studies in comparative religion (section 2); a third type of argument derives from the philosophy of religion (section 3) and a f

Macro social work is social work. History tells us that the profession was birthed from diverse traditions were grounded in different assumptions, spurring different ways of knowing and doing. This versatility is a hallmark of the field and it will serve macro social work well into the future. A profession that seeks to sustain, advocate and change, with the intent of increasing quality of life, will always need practitioners who can recognize diverse world views, understand multilayered contexts, deal with limitless inter-connections, and be invigorated by conflict.

All the elements that make up the presented world – nature, the town, the protagonists or their behavior – are ideal, beautiful, harmonious, and noble.

The following paper investigates the ways in which European cartography blended with Japanese Buddhist cosmology and created a hybrid form of maps during the period of Japan’s first cultural encounter with Europeans in the second half of the 16th century and the early 17th century. The maps of Dutch cartographers heavily influenced these so-called nanban world-map screens created by Japanese artists. Nevertheless, their companion screens often depicted a local map of Japan in the gyoki tradition deeply embedded in the Buddhist faith system. With a focus on a seventeenth-century pair of folding

Less discussed, however, is the current status of Chinese political thought, which informs, shapes, and formulates the views of Chinese political leaders and the Chinese people.
