The document summarizes Banuazizi's analysis of the Iranian Revolution of 1977-1979. Banuazizi argues that the revolution was a mass-based social revolution involving both modern and traditional forces. It was driven by structural factors like cultural divisions produced by modernization, as well as the unique nature of Shi'ite religion. Banuazizi also critiques views that see Islamic resurgence as extremist, noting the revolution drew on multiple Islamic ideologies and values can adapt to different groups' interests. The revolution shows tradition is not an obstacle to change and modernization does not necessarily lead to secularization.

With no CLERGY or GODS - Confucianism is not a religion in the TRADITIONAL senseETHICAL system provides direction for personal behaviorPracticed mostly in CHINA – about 6.3 million followersBased on the teachings of Chinese scholar CONFUCIUSConfucius (551–479 BC)- teacher, editor, politician, and philosopherBorn at a time of CRISIS and VIOLENCE in ChinaHoped his beliefs and teachings would restore order to society
CONFUCIANISM
Philosophy of Confucius emphasized personal and governmental morality - correctness of social relationships -justice and sincerityConfucius's principles - based on common Chinese tradition and beliefBelieved in: strong family loyalty - ancestor worship -respect of elders by their children and of husbands by their wives His principle "Do not do to others what you do not want done to yourself", an early version of the Golden Rule
CONFUCIUS
Confucius believed order, harmony, good government could be restored if society were organized around the:
FIVE KEY RELATIONSHIPS1. RULER - SUBJECT2. FATHER - SON3. HUSBAND - WIFE4. OLDER BROTHER – YOUNGER BROTHER5. FRIEND - FRIEND
FIVE KEY RELATIONSHIPS
Except for FRIENDSHIPS – none of the relationships were EQUALOLDER superior to YOUNGERMEN superior to WOMEN

FIVE KEY RELATIONSHIPS
FILIAL PIETY is respect for one's parents and ancestors:
*to be good and take care of parents
*show love, respect, courtesy and support
*display sorrow for their sickness and death Filial Piety emphasized in Confucianism because devotion to one's parents was associated with one's devotion to the state; it also meant honoring their parents’ memories after death

Theological underpinnings of creativity that leads to innovation and entrepreneurship. Sociological analysis of n-achievement, and values systems that lead to entrepreneurship.
Improving Our Educational Systems Part 2Asad Zaman
Rejection of Christianity led to a radical change in Western epistemology. Religion was replaced by science as the foundation for knowledge. This involved a shift from study of internal life experience to the external reality. Loss of understanding of character, spirit, heart, lead to a seriously defective education, which provides students with the skills to build bombs, but not the compassion and understanding of human suffering which is the basis for morality. By abandoning Western models, and shifting to the educational methods of the Prophet, we can create dramatic improvements in our educational outcomes.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
Thesis Statement for students diagnonsed withADHD.ppt
The New Modernization Perspective
1.
2. The New Modernization studies
- focus: Third World countries
- analyses: conducted at national level
- aim: to explain that development
occurs mainly through internal factors,
such as cultural values and social
institutions.
3. How is the new modernization studies different
from the classical modernization studies?
1. Avoidance of treating tradition and modernity
as a set of mutually exclusive concepts
2. Change in methodology
3. Do not assume a unidirectional path of
development toward the Western model
4. Lay more emphasis on external (international)
factors than before
5. Wong started with a critique of the classical
modernization theorist’s interpretation of the
traditional Chinese family.
Classical modernization researchers advocated
discarding traditional Chinese family values in
order to promote economic growth in China.
However, Wong demonstrates that the family
does have a positive impact on economic
development.
6. 1. Practice of paternalistic management
The metaphor of the family provides ready-
made cultural rhetoric to legitimate a patron-
client relationship between employer and
employee.
Political consequence: it retards the growth of
class consciousness among workers
When paternalism is working, labor discontent is
expressed more in the form of individual acts,
e.g. absenteeism, resignations, than in
collective acts of bargaining and strikes.
7. 2. Nepotism
Most Chinese will ask relatives for jobs only as a
last resort.
Kin are expected to work harder for less pay
which helps to enhance the competitiveness
of the firm during recession.
Chinese entrepreneurs are generally careful to
equip family members with formal education
and on-the-job training.
8. 3. Family mode of ownership
1978: nearly 60% of small factories in Hong Kong
were owned by individual proprietors and their
families.
Even if family division were to take place, it
would take the form of dividing profits rather
than physical fragmentation of the family
estate.
9. Wong argues for an economically dynamic
ethos of “entrepreneurial familism”, which
involves the family as the basic unit of
economic competition, providing the impetus
toward innovation and risk taking.
10. Three distinguishing characteristics
• High degree of centralization in decision
making, low degree of formalization of
organizational structure
• Autonomy is highly valued, self-employment is
preferred
• Family firms seldom endure, and are
constantly in flux.
12. A Theory of Hurdles
Weber offered a theory of hurdles – treating
development as though it were an extended
obstacle course stretching between the
starting line (traditional societies) and the
finishing line (modern societies).
The runners (developing nations) who succeed
in surmounting all the hurdles are rewarded
with the trophies of “rationality” and modern
civilization.
13. What are these hurdles of development?
• Economic hurdles – must overcome to attain
the basic characteristics of the capitalist
system
• Social-political hurdles
• Psychological hurdles
14. Weber and his followers errors in explaining the
relationship between religion and development:
• They assume a priori that religion is the source of
some “spiritual ethos” or “central value system”.
• They take secularization or disenchantment for
granted as part of the inevitable fate of modern
civilization.
• They fail to deal with other social relations, e.g.
role of individual self-interest, competition,
disloyalty, and conflict.
15. A Theory of Barricades
A – Society
A
B – the barricades: religion,
magic, morality, folk
B traditions
C – economy (embedded)
C
Davis’s Model of Traditional
Society
16. Davis portrays traditional society as consisting of
three concentric rings:
• Inner ring – the economy and its values
• Middle ring – “immunological barricade” that
traditional societies erect against the
economy
• Outer ring – the society and its values, status,
and power relations
17. This model offers a new approach to the
examination of the relationship between
religion and development.
Instead of focusing on the ways that modernizers
leap over hurdles, Davis’s new approach calls
for an analysis of the activities of the defenders
of traditional religion.
18. Rewriting the Religious History of Japan
Davis attempts to reinterpret the relationship
between Japanese religion and development.
He focuses on two aspects:
1. The negative enablements of religion (Why did
Japanese religion fail to obstruct change?)
2. The positive enablements of religion (How did
Japanese religion promote change?)
19. The negative enablements
Davis argues that Japanese religions have
posed no obstruction to change for the ff.
reasons:
1. With respect to Buddhism, it had done nothing
to prevent the rapid development of the
Japanese countryside.
2. Since Shinto had no universal prelates to
enforce its claims, it gave in even more easily
to the modernizing factors.
20. 3. Because of the coexistence of Confucianism,
Buddhism, and Shinto, there is a high degree
of religious tolerance in Japan.
4. Japanese urbanization has promoted a
secularization of religion, leading to a this-
worldly spirit among urban merchants and
Confucian scholars.
5. Davis observes the postwar boom in new
religions, with huge high mass movements
founded by charismatic leaders.
21. 6. Observing the revival of folk religion, Davis
asserts that magic and miracles are perfectly
compatible with the “rationality” of industrial
society.
22. The positive enablements
Religion is often used to enhance economic
production.
The folk religion had developed a set of work
ethics for the common people.
Japanese industry takes pain to transmit this
religious work ethic to workers through various
initiation rites, training sessions, and “spiritual
education”.
23. Work is made part of the values of harmony,
unity, consensus, loyalty, sincerity, and altruistic
service to the individual’s family, company,
and nation.
As there is a mixture of civil religion and work
ethic, there is also a mixture of civil religion and
business ideology.
However, Davis argues that the mixing of civil
religion and business ideology was
unsuccessful.
24. Japan as a Post-Confucian Industrial Society
By the 1980s, little remained of the barricades
that defended traditionalism.
Today, it is industry that asks to be made safe
from society, and new barricades rise up to
protect the economy from the intrusion of
society.
25. C Davis’ Model of Post-Confucian
Industrial Society
B2
Davis three figures merely
highlighted the way in
A which religion sanctifies
society, and the way the
economy has become
“secularized”.
C – economy
B2 – the new barricades: Japan theory,
religious, and moral rationales,
Reaganomics
A – society (embedded)
27. Banuazizi argues for a greater appreciation of
tradition in its own right.
He advocates bringing tradition back, as
tradition can be as reflective, creative, and
responsive to individual and collective needs
as its modern counterpart can, and tradition
has immense potential for social mobilization
and change.
28. He criticizes the classical modernization theorists
for:
1. Evoking an ideal image of contemporary
Western society
2. Defining tradition in residual and negative
terms
3. Arguing that the Third World has to get rid of its
traditional obstacles before modernization
can occur
29. Banuazizi observes the revival of a traditionalist
movement in the form of the “Islamic
resurgence”.
He examines one of the most dynamic outbursts
of the Islamic revival – the Iranian Revolution of
1977-1979. It is the only revivalist movement
that has actually brought a fundamentalist
Islamic regime to power.
30. In the Western media, Islamic resurgence
movements have been portrayed as extremist,
anachronistic, and retrogressive.
Banuazizi argues that these interpretations are
one-sided because they fail to examine
factors such as the structural bases, the
cultural division, etc. that explained the origins
of the Iranian Revolution.
31. 1. Banuazizi points to the structural roots of the
Iranian Revolution.
2. The forces of modernization had produced a
profound cultural division between a small
modern segment of Western-educated elite
and a large traditional segment of peasants.
3. The unique nature of the Shi’ite religion acted
to propel the revolution.
4. The Iranian Revolution was a mass-based
social revolution, involving a coalition of social
forces and political ideologies.
32. On the Islamic side alone, there were four
variants:
• Radical Islam – the ideology of the young
intellectuals
• Militant Islam – the ideology of the ulama, the
petty bourgeoisie, and the dispossessed
• Liberal Islam – the ideology of the bourgeoisie,
and the middle class
• Traditional Islam – the ideology of the old
middle strata
33. Banuazizi also argues that the ideals and values
of Islam could be made so elastic that they
would fit the interests and proclivities of any
particular group.
• Banuazizi points out that modernization does
not necessarily bring about secularization.
• He remarks that traditional actors do not seem
to be hampered by their “traditionalist” traits.
34. • Traditionalist religious movements can also
appeal to those who have extensive exposure
to modernizing institutions as well as to the
marginal social elements.
• He has observed the triumph of a traditionalist
element and the elimination of virtually all
other groups that had participated in the
revolutionary coalition in Iran.
36. Huntington presents a comprehensive review of
the crucial factors relating to the development
of democracy in Third World countries.
He raises the question: Will more countries
become democratic? In researching this
question, he distinguishes two factors: (1) the
preconditions that favor democratic
development, and (2) the political processes
by which democratic development has
occurred.
37. Preconditions of Development
Factor of economic wealth.
• A wealthy economy moderates political
tensions.
• An advanced, complex, industrialized
economy cannot be governed efficiently by
authoritarian means.
• A country with a wealthy economy tends to
have more equally distributed income.
38. • A new concept of the zone of transition: as
countries develop economically, they move
into a zone of transition in which traditional
political institutions become increasingly
difficult to maintain.
39. Factor of social structure.
• Huntington stresses the existence of an
autonomous bourgeoisie as the most
significant intermediate group.
• Another key element that promotes
democracy is the existence of market-oriented
economies. A market economy requires a
dispersion of economic power, thereby
creating a check to state power.
40. Factor of external environment.
• Democratization is the result of diffusion rather
than of development.
• The rise and fall of democracy on a global
state is a function of the rise and decline of the
most powerful democratic states.
• A regional trend may exist.
41. Factor of cultural context.
• Huntington finds that Protestantism has a high
correlation with democracy, that Catholicism
has a moderate and delayed impact on the
growth of democracy, and that Buddhism
have been conducive to authoritarian rule.
• Two types of religious culture: consummatory,
and instrumental.
42. • Consummatory religious culture: where
intermediate and ultimate ends are closely
related, less favorable to democracy
• Instrumental religious culture: characterized by
the separation of intermediate ends from
ultimate ends
43. Process of Democratization
Huntington examines the political processes
through which democratic development has
occurred.
He discusses three models of democratization:
linear, cyclical, and dialectical.
44. • Linear: draws from both British and Swedish
experience
• Cyclical: alternating despotism and
democracy, most common in Latin American
nations
• Dialectical: the development of an urban
middle class leads to growing pressures on the
authoritarian regime for political participation
and contestation
45. Huntington addresses the issue of the best
sequence for democratic development. His
preferred overall process is as follows:
1. Define national identity.
2. Develop effective political institutions.
3. Expand political participation.
46. He stresses that political participation must occur
late in the sequence of change otherwise it
will lead to political instability and violence.
Huntington also emphasizes that democracy
tends to be the result of gradual evolutionary
process with minimum violence, rather than
the result of revolutionary outflow of existing
hegemonies.
47. Lastly, Huntington suggests that the United States
can contribute to the democratic
development of Third World nations in the ff.
ways:
• By assisting their economic development
• By fostering their market economies and the
growth of a vigorous bourgeoisie
• By exercising greater influence than it has in
world affairs
• By helping the elites in these countries enter
the transition zone to democratization
49. The new modernization studies open up new
research agendas and provide a more
sophisticated analysis than the old
modernization studies.
Bringing tradition back in. The new
modernization studies have taken a much
closer look at what tradition is, how it interacts
with Western forces, and what role it has
played in the process of modernization. They
reveal the intricate relationship between
tradition and modernity.
50. Bringing history back in. The new modernization
studies have adopted a different
methodology.
They have brought history back into the picture,
focusing on the unique development of each
case study, and used theory to explain
individual case studies.
51. Toward a more sophisticated analysis. The new
modernization studies have avoided making
simplistic statements or presenting single-
variable analyses.
They pay attention to multi-institutional analysis,
to multilineal paths of development, and to
the interaction between external and internal
factors.
