“What is Philosophy?” by Walter Sinnott-Armstrong Well, what do you think philosophy is? Most people can’t answer this question. It’s too abstract. It’s also controversial. Philosophers themselves can’t agree on any answer. Sure, the name “philosophy” derives from the Greek for “love of wisdom”, but what’s that? There has been a long and glorious history of people called philosophers, but they talk about all kinds of topics in all kinds of ways. It is not clear what, if anything, they have in common that makes them all philosophers. Still, though many philosophers would dispute what I say, I will give you one model of philosophy. For me, philosophy is defined by a goal and a method. Philosophy’s goal is nothing less than a systematic world view. Other fields study particular kinds of things. Philosophy asks how it all fits together. For example, if you want to learn about bodies, take a course in physics or biology. If you want to learn about minds, take a course in psychology. But if you want to learn about how minds are related to bodies, or how physics is related to psychology, then philosophy (of mind) is for you. Similarly, economics, political science, and art and music courses study different values (welfare, justice, and beauty). Then moral philosophers ask how these values are similar or different, when one may be traded off against another, and where any of these values fit into the physical world. Again, historians try to discover knowledge of the past and astronomers try to discover knowledge of stars and planets, but only philosophers ask what makes any of these beliefs knowledge, and how (or whether) we can have any knowledge at all. Such philosophical questions are very abstract, but that is what enables them to cover so many different fields at once. This goal also means that you can study anything under the name of philosophy. Philosophy encompasses subfields called philosophy of religion, of law, of economics, of biology, of physics, of mathematics, of computers, of psychology, of art, of music, of literature, and so on. Any and all of these topics can be studied in a philosophical way when one asks how they are related to each other in an overall world view. When such disparate topics are raised, conflicts and paradoxes are bound to arise. One famous example is the paradox of freedom: Science, including psychology, leads us to believe that (1) Every act is determined by a prior cause. Law and common practices of blaming and punishing wrongdoers then lead us to believe that (2) Some acts are free. But the very definition of “free” suggests that (3) Nothing that is determined is free. Unfortunately, (1)-(3) cannot all be true, so any world view that includes all three of these claims is incoherent. Paradoxes like this are both loved and hated by philosophers. Philosophers love them for their stimulation but hate them for their incoherence, so philosophers try hard to get rid of paradoxes. One prevalent way to resolve paradox.

Classical and Modern Philosophy: Rationalism and Empiricism .pptx

MeiselaHardiantimeis

I am Dr. John Fruncillo and I will be your professor for this on-line course. Let's look at a brief overveiw of Philosophy's Fundamental Questions: The history of western philosophy spans over 2500 years and begins with the questions raised by the Presocratic philosophers. Among the fundamental questions formulated by the Presocratics are: 1) what is the foundation of reality-what is being? The problems of Metaphysics and Ontology 2) what is the nature of the soul?, 3) What can we know, the study of knowledge-epistemology 4) what is the good, what is the life of virtue, 4) what is beauty? Philosophy has been and still is, a search for the conditions for the possibility of experience and reality. In order to tackle this seemigly absract endveour, philosophy must be both historical and critical in its methods. We need to understand what the authors of the past have said so that we can gain a better understanding of where we are today. How did we go from anceint Greece to modern technological society? How do we justify any knowledge claims? What is the difference between opinion and knowledge or appearance and reality? What is the difference between good and evil? Each thinker will approach these questions in a different way depending on the historical context in which they lived. So, for example, Aristotle takes for granted the reality of physical motion (Kinesis) and attempts to explain how things change from one physical state to the next, birth, growth, death while the fundamental ground of reality for Aquinas is God's creative act of bringing all things into being ex-nihilo (out of nothing). As we will see, there is a tremendous ontological gulf between the Greek understanding of nature and time and the Christian understanding in the middle ages.Please don't become worried if my example seems too technical. I'm am only using the Greeks and Christians to illustrate a basic principle underlying the history of philosophy: that the ultimate conditions for what is taken as 'real' change with each historical time-frame. I’d like to describe the fundamental questions of philosophy in relationship to the basic fields of philosophy:a) Epistemology: the theory of knowledge, the standards for justifying knowledge claims, what is truth? What are the limits and sources of our knowledge? From theGrrek words- ‘Epistme’ and ‘logos’ = discourse about knowledge b) Metaphysics: fundamental questions about the nature of reality, is the universe finite or infinite? What is the foundation of reality? Is reality made up of one kind of substance or many? Composed of matter or spirit? Meta/physis = after physics, beyond the sensible world. Is the universe finite or infinite, does God exist, do we have a soul? c) Ethics: what is good? What is evil/wrong? What standards can we use to justify our asserting that certain actions are wrong and others are right? What rational arguments can we give to support a moral argument? These three fields of philosophy do not exhaus.

Writing Requirements Minimum of 2 sources cited (assigned readings/online lessons and an outside scholarly source) APA format for in-text citations and list of references Youtube Video: PHILOSOPHY: Immanuel Kant Please find information related to Immanuel Kant below. Immanuel Kant was born in what is known today as Kaliningrad, Russia. He was known for publishing sixty-nine philosophical publications. Kant was not only a philosopher and teacher; he was also a chair in the field of mathematics. He was a believer in morals and doing what was right. This philosopher was also known for having multiple diseases over the course of his life (Fellin & Ble, 1997). During the course of his life, Immanuel Kant wrote about human socialization and how antagonism can impact humans and society. For instance, Immanuel Kant blames “man’s own absurd natural predispositions” for his own problems (Valdez, 2017, p. 827). Some of these problems consisted of barbaric behavior as well as war. This was difficult for Kant. As a moral philosopher, Immanuel Kant believed in doing the right thing. Similarly, Kant believed in peacebuilding. Thus, building trust was a great way to maintain peace (Yu, 1998). Kant also believed that there were times when individuals were confident in their ability to be among others in society. He also believed that there were times when individuals felt isolated from the same society that they often enjoyed engagement. Moreover, Kant believed that autonomy was a necessary part of human nature (Pirc, 2018). Like, Aristotle, Immanuel Kant believed in respect and dignity for human life. This connectedness stemmed from a common thread that Kant labeled as the formula for humanity. This philosopher furthered believed in two distinct domains as it related to the categorical imperative. One of these was the doctrine of right. The other distinct domain was referred to as the doctrine of virtue (DiCenso, 2019). Kant’s categorical imperative was one method of illuminating this message. In other words, people mattered. According to Ruggiero (2012), they should never be used as a means to someone else’s end. “To treat people “as an end” means, on the most superficial level, treating them well. We must promote their welfare, respect their rights, avoid harming them, and generally “endeavor, so far as we can, to further the ends of others” (Rachels & Rachels, 2019, p. 147). Needless to say, cruelty and evil exists but Kant believed that it was important for people to act morally. At times; however, Kant viewed human beings as animals. Kant argued, “that if we develop a habit of treating animals cruelly this will damage our character and ultimately lead to in.

Writing Requirements Minimum of 2 sources cited (assigned readings/online lessons and an outside scholarly source) APA format for in-text citations and list of references This discussion focuses on shame. Shame can be categorized as an emotion that has been deeply hidden (Bateman & Engel, 2018). Ruggiero (2012) stated that the human condition of shame can have adverse impacts on an individual as well as society. Israeli and Raveh (2018) support this by citing that shame is common to humanity. For instance, shame conditions the way that a person lives in the world. According to Uebel (2009), shame can cause an individual to structure their world in a particular way especially when engaging with others. Shame, like emotivism, deals with emotions or feelings (Rachels & Rachels, 2019). Shame can be defined as humiliation. Furthermore, shame can be viewed as an isolating experience. This term can also be used to communicate how people live out shameful experiences. For example, “Pennebaker (1990) pointed out that many citizens of Dallas felt ashamed of their city for many years after the assassination of President Kennedy, even though there was no sense in which Dallas or its citizens were responsible for what happened. Assassin Lee Harvey Oswald was from New Orleans” (Uebel, 2009, p. 236). Shame has several main functions. The first functions deals with the intuitiveness of shame. Shame is visual. It is considered as being identical to exposure. “Shame is an emotion routed through the eyes and its mise-en-scène is thus specularity and exposure, involving the spatial organization of a spectator who can be external, internal, or both at once” (Uebel, 2009, p. 234). Secondly, shame has been viewed as a function of the spectatorial and spatial dimensions. Uebel (2009) noted that an individual who experiences shame is suspended between what is known verses unknown. Thirdly, shame has dramaturgical or performative meaning. For example, an actor or actress who is unaware of themselves at some point becomes aware. This awakened awareness makes the individual feel like an actor or actress that is engaging in a real life performance before others. In other words, there is a double-ness to shame. This occurs when one can see their behavior. The fourth function of shame is its transformative disruption of what we think we know about ourselves. Shame deals with the experience of an individual’s own limitations. Fifth is shames relationship-seeking quality or ethical significance. Sixth is shame has a moral relevance. Lastly, shame functions as guilt. In brief, Uebel (2009) noted that shame can encompass guilt. Howeve.

This discussion focuses on Ayn Rand and self-interest. Kim (2014) stated that the most common definition used for self-interest includes the ability to maximize material resources while decreasing the level of harm caused to an individual. This harm can include a person’s health. It can also include a person’s wealth. Self-interest is considered a powerful motivator. According to Kim (2014), self-interest is the motivation behind humans setting goals. It is also the reason behind individuals achieving them. Kim (2014) also noted that engaging in pleasure that makes an individual feel subjectively good can lead to self-interest. This can happen even if the person does not obtain any monetary gain. Likewise, this can occur even if an individual’s health is not impacted. For example, “the taxpayer who wants to pay taxes simply because it makes him feel good to help society would be self-interested because of the hedonistic benefits he accrues” (Kim, 2014, p. 100). Likewise, an individual who engages in risky sexual behaviors and/or smoking cigarettes both could be interpreted as self-interest. Kim (2014) stated that the pleasure feelings that individuals experience are self-interested even if these feelings coming with expenses to the health of the individual engaging in them. As it relates to the public’s view on self-interest, many American voters in the 1950’s declared self-interest as playing a pivotal role in society (Weeden & Kurzban, 2017). Since the 1950’s; however, researchers have completed studies that reflect the opposite. Voters are now finding self-interest to play less of a role in society. In closing, it is important to know that Alexis de Tocqueville held his own views related to self-interest. These views were no precursor to the views of philosopher Ayn Rand. Tocqueville believed that self-interest could lead a person to support others or it could lead to an individualized focus (Frohnen, 2000). Rand believed in the individualism as well as man’s ability to reason. Moreover, Rand believed “when we describe one person’s action as altruistic and another person’s action as self-interested, we may be overlooking the fact that in each case the person is merely doing what he or she most wants to do ”(p. 69). Attached is a video with more information related to Ayn Rand and self-interest verse altruism (Common Sense Capitalism, 2013). Youtube: Ayn Rand: Self Interest versus Altruism Referen.

Multiculturalism consists of customary behaviors. It represents diverse cultures as well as how societies believe and think. For instance, Western culture holds more of an individualist view of society. Individualism often overlooks the value of group based identities or cultural ties that exists within a community (Goo, 2018). Likewise, multiculturalism is used as a method to examine various cultural views whether it is racial or religious. “Even policies that go well beyond an individual-centered approach—such as Germany’s funding of Islamic faculties at some state universities or France’s state subsidies for mosque construction—are not really multiculturalism but merely a “prolongation of long-established ways of dealing with religious diversity” (Ryan, 2019, p. 155). Additionally, multiculturalism consists of various communication formats among various cultural groups. Wu (2019) stated that language plays a role in preserving a society. For instance, if Mandarin Chinese is the preferred language of a particular cultural group such as in Taiwan and someone speaks Taiwanese Hokkien, they can be punished based on local custom. According to Wu (2019), this was a reason for the discouraged use of vernaculars. Thus, understanding context is highly valued within this culture. Preserving tradition is important for some cultural groups (Wu, 2019). For example, in some cultures, men are viewed as strong or heroic. On the other hand, women are viewed as passive or in need of a husband or savior. This can be viewed in many traditional Western stories where the male character, often characterized as superman, batman, or a prince, saves a female who is in trouble (Goo, 2018). Different countries hold different views of multiculturalism. For instance, Taiwan takes great delight in its status as a multicultural society (Wu, 2019). In Western culture; however, there is still fear of diversity (Goo, 2018). In America, individualism is considered the more acceptable norm (Lois, 1999). Individualism focuses on standing out. It focuses on personal success or fulfillment. Likewise, individualism focuses on a person’s self direction or interest (Carola, 2019). According to Rachels and Rachels (2019), “To call a custom “correct” or “incorrect” would imply that we can judge it by some independent or objective standard of right and wrong” (p. 16). In brief, multiculturali.

Follow up discussion post Please read and give your comment or additional information one paragraph with proper citation intext and reference I have taken the quiz, and I was categorized as a disaffected Democrat. I am a democrat, but I needed to research exactly what a disaffected one was. Here is what Pew Research had to say: Defining values: Disaffected Democrats strongly believe the economic system unfairly favors powerful interests and that business corporations make too much profit. Relatively few believe their family has achieved the American Dream, and 24% believe it is out of reach for their family. Most say the government should do more to help the needy and that poor people have hard lives because government benefits do not go far enough to help them live decently. In contrast to other Democratic-oriented groups, a majority (63%) characterizes government as “almost always wasteful and inefficient.” Political attitudes: Though less politically engaged, Disaffected Democrats share Solid Liberals’ disapproval of Donald Trump: 91% disapprove of his job performance, including 85% who do so strongly. Just 43% of Disaffected Democrats say voting gives people like them some say about how the government runs things, the lowest percentage of any typology group. Who they are: Over half (56%) of Disaffected Democrats are non-white. Highly financially stressed, they are the least likely to own a home and – along with Devout and Diverse – would have a tougher time than other typology groups if they needed to live off of their savings. Lifestyle notes: Most Disaffected Democrats (55%) say they have lived in or near their local community for their entire life. Most (58%) say they enjoy volunteering “a lot.” My ideological placement would be a Solid Democrat because I would like to stand firm in my beliefs, but also because the quiz defines them as financially comfortable, highly educated, and expressing liberal attitudes on virtually every issue. I do mostly agree with the results, and how the quiz defines me. While it is not completely accurate, it does display most of my beliefs, my lifestyle, and my voting record accurately which is “while support for democracy as a principle is widespread, many citizens have become less satisfied with the way democracy performs” (Klingemann, H., 2015) REFERENCES Klingemann, H.

For almost 30 centuries—from its unification around 3100 B.C. to its conquest by Alexander the Great in 332 B.C.—ancient Egypt was the preeminent civilization in the Mediterranean world. Egypt’s majesty has long entranced archaeologists and historians and created a vibrant field of study all its own: Egyptology. The main sources of information about ancient Egypt are the many monuments, objects and artifacts that have been recovered from archaeological sites, covered with hieroglyphs that have only recently been deciphered. The picture that emerges is of a culture with few equals in the beauty of its art, the accomplishment of its architecture or the richness of its religious traditions. PREDYNASTIC PERIOD (C. 5000-3100 B.C.) Encompassed at least 2,000 years of gradual development of the Egyptian civilization. This took place in the late Stone Age/Neolithic period. 4 Neolithic (late Stone Age) communities in northeastern Africa exchanged hunting for agriculture and made early advances that paved the way for the later development of Egyptian arts and crafts, technology, politics and religion (including a great reverence for the dead and possibly a belief in life after death). Mesopotamia also believe in this religion 5 Around 3400 B.C., two separate kingdoms were established: the Red Land to the north, based in the Nile River Delta and extending along the Nile perhaps to Atfih; and the White Land in the south, stretching from Atfih to Gebel es-Silsila. King Menes would subdue the north and unify the country, becoming the first king of the first dynasty. ARCHAIC (EARLY DYNASTIC) PERIOD (C. 3100-2686 B.C.) The Archaic Period saw the development of the foundations of Egyptian society, including the all-important ideology of kingship. To the ancient Egyptians, the king was a godlike being, closely identified with the all-powerful god Horus. The earliest known hieroglyphic writing also dates to this period. In the Archaic Period, as in all other periods, most ancient Egyptians were farmers living in small villages, and agriculture (largely wheat and barley) formed the economic base of the Egyptian state. The annual flooding of the great Nile River provided the necessary irrigation and fertilization each year; farmers sowed the wheat after the flooding receded and harvested it before the season of high temperatures and drought returned. OLD KINGDOM: AGE OF THE PYRAMID BUILDERS (C. 2686-2181 B.C.) The Old Kingdom began with the third dynasty of pharaohs. Around 2630 B.C., the third dynasty’s King Djoser asked Imhotep, an architect, priest and healer, to design a funerary monument for him; the result was the world’s first major stone building, the Step-Pyramid at Saqqara, near Memphis. Pyramid-building reached its zenith with the construction of the Great Pyramid at Giza, on the outskirts of Cairo. Built for Khufu, who ruled from 2589 to 2566 B.C. Two other pyramids were built at Giza for Khufu’s successors K.

We will be doing the project in chunks, as we cover the material in class, so tasks may be assigned out of sequence. Preparing to run: SLO #1 1. Know your district. Go to: http://www.fyi.legis.state.tx.us/Home.aspx, and discover the district number, and who represents you in the Texas house or state senate. Which political party is your state house/state senate representative affiliated with? (if you choose to run as a House or Senate representative, check the district that you want to run for.) 2. Go to your current representative’s page, and look at the district analysis documents. 1. What does your district look like (in terms of population, age, education, employment, election results)? 2. What issues arise based on the district’s demographics (this will help you think about your platform) 3. Is your district gerrymandered? http://www.fyi.legis.state.tx.us/Info.as.

*for A-Z answers only* offshoring and its impact of labor and growth within the countries of Sierra Leone and Norway. Throughout our research we will hope to provide substantial details on how offshoring could provide major benefit to its host country but also have adverse unintentional consquences. By exploring the different roles offshoring plays within an undeveloped nation versus developed nation we will provide extensive information in hope to conclude whether or not the opportunity for growth does truly exist. We will also be exploring the political and social environments of both countries and how they interact with regards to offshoring. Finally we will be conducting a direct comparison of the two nations which will include policies and the implications offshoring could have both countries and the world economies. .

For 1-Hour Writer ONLY This author cited, "Allport (1937) refers to these internal factors as psychophysical systems; this term implies that personality composed of both body and mind elements fashioned into heterogeneous, inextricable unity. He maintained that all the traits we apparently share with others are, at base, idiosyncratic and craved to take into account the fact that we not only adjust to our environment by behaving in certain ways, but we also reflect on it. By so doing, we ensure not only survival but growth". What does this mean? Summarize in your own words! [200 word count reference and citation needed] .

Football - A starting point could be headlines 'Premier League suspended indefinitely following Corona virus crisis meeting' What does this mean for fandom? - can you still be a fan if there is no football? How are fans coping without live football? The theoretical underpinnings for this are the sociology of fandom (women or men) - eg Tomlinson, or Stacey Pope Issues around IDENTIT(IES) how has peoples identity changed with the isolation around football - going to the pub to watch the game, drinking culture, how have they adapted? DATA COLLECTION METHODS You can still observe some things - for example your family's reaction to the suspension, then the final decision etc Your story also is important. Observations from the news clips even. Interviews - semi-structured interviews - you still need to retain the ethics code - the consent forms and informed participant information forms - then conduct the iinterviews face to face ONLY in your household, or by Zoom or phone call - obviously get permission to record the conversation. Coding data- into emergent themes - both from the theories and the data you have collected Critical analysis - remember your findings need to be critical - the points you make linked back to the literature you have set up in your review of literature. .

Foods deteriorate in quality due to a wide range of reactions including some that are physical, some that are chemical, some enzymatic and some microbiological. The various forms of spoilage and food poisoning caused by microorganisms are preventable to a large degree by a number of preservation techniques, most of which act by preventing or slowing microbial growth. These include freezing, chilling, drying, curing, conserving, vacuum packing, modified atmosphere packing, acidifying, fermenting, and adding chemical preservatives. This is section 13, Chemical food protection. We’ll look at the other food preservation mechanisms in future modules. 1 From the moment a food source is harvested in begins to deteriorate. It is estimated that 25% of the worlds food is lost to microbial decay annually. This equals more than a billion dollars per year. 2 Salting as a means of preserving foods predates written history. The Mesopotamians were known 3000 B.C.E. generally used salt to preserve meat and fish. Early Roman writers such as Cato (234‐149 B.C.E.) clearly explained the need to salt perishable meats and vegetables to preserve them. We have already seen in past chapters that salt binds water reducing water activity and also is toxic to enzymatic and DNA processes in cells. 3 Today, nearly all manufactured foods have different chemical preservatives because it makes financial sense. Food additives maintain or improve freshness, safety, nutritional value, taste, texture, or appearance. Consumers demand and enjoy a food supply that is flavorful, nutritious, safe, convenient, colorful and affordable. 4 No audio. 5 No audio. 6 In the United States, neither the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) nor the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) has labeling claim rules for “natural." The FDA explicitly discourages the food industry from using the term. The Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act prohibits labeling that is false or misleading, but does not give any specifics. The USDA's Agricultural Marketing Service has a standard for organic food, but there is no legal definition for natural foods. Despite no legal U.S. definition for natural foods, there are numerous unofficial or informal definitions, none of which are applied uniformly to foods labeled "natural". 7 So, are food chemical additives safe? 8 In 1958, the US created food additive legislation stating that the FDA must approve all food additives and ingredients that are not generally recognized as safe. The GRAS list contains food additives that have been used historically and have shown no hazards during that time. Easily recognized examples are sodium chloride, sucrose and acetic acid. Less easily recognized are many of the common food preservatives such as sodium benzoate, potassium sorbate, and calcium propionate. 9 The U.S. FDA maintains a list of over 3000 approved, generally recognized as safe, food ingredients including food.

They begin serving between 11:30 and noon, and they serve until they run out of food, usually by 2. A line begins to form soon after the truck arrives at its daily destination, and by noon it’s a dozen people long and stays that way until there’s nothing left to sell, at which time they tweet once more that they’re closed for the day. https://ethiopianfood.wordpress.com/2011/07/21/ethiopian-food-on-wheels/ Table of Contents 1. Introduction a. Nestled in the center of the country,Ethiopia‘s capital city, Addis Ababa, is quickly evolving and growing. Addis captures much of the diversity unique to the country, with over80 distinctive languages and numerous dialects belonging to a variety of religious communities and peoples. The city takes pride in its diversity, which is perhaps best represented by the city’s food culture and lively restaurant scene b. 2. About Company-Laura Located in the bustling area of Addis Abada, Sishu is one of Ethiopia’s most popular and trendiest restaurants. While Sishu serves a variety of sandwiches, the restaurant has become known for the burgers. With homemade sweet buns, delectably seasoned ground meat, tangy homemade sauces, and crisp French fries, both locals and tourists palates go wild when tasting the food at Sishu. Drawn mostly from word of mouth, crowds flock to Sishu throughout the day. Initially established by American expat Mathews Teshome and local Selamawit Deneke, the twosome was able to create a space with delicious food based on both American and Ethiopian cultures. Sourcing as many ingredients locally as possible, the restaurant focuses on food quality and taste. Since the demand for burger places in Addis is extremely high, customers would likely forgive a miss in quality. However, the two partners are very focused on constantly improving and keeping service standards high. To maintain high service standards, the restaurant hires more staff than the minimum requirement and slowly training new employees to avoid mistakes. Moreover, new employees come by referrals, and are often a mix of Ethiopians and expats, so that cultural barriers and differences can be navigated through the different perspectives. Additionally, Sishu keeps productive high and employees happy by paying them double what they would make elsewhere maximizing its limited resources with the formation of revenue .
