The Tragedy of the Few

In this article I elaborate and defend a rights-based understanding of climate politics, that is, one that takes climate politics to concern the rights to access of natural resources as opposed to people’s economic incentives. The argument contains two parts. The first is negative: to demonstrate that the tragedy of the commons as a story of climate change is inadequate. The second is positive: to suggest a more satisfactory framework, which I call the tragedy of the few. In this view, climate politics is neither primarily mitigation nor economic incentive politics, but one of distributing rights to access natural resources in a fair and environmentally-friendly way. By changing both the narrative and underlying methodological assumptions, my goal is to enable us to accommodate the rights to access natural resources as a key moral issue in climate politics. I begin by sketching the main features of the tragedy of the commons and demonstrate its inadequacy. I then provide an account of the rights-based view of climate change that consists of two arguments. First, I demonstrate the normative side of the argument by highlighting the importance of environmental rights, and second, I outline the empirical side of the argument by discussing recent studies on the properties of natural resources and on the corporate agents who extract the resources that emit greenhouse gasses.

The Appeal of Tragedy: A Terror Management Perspective

The experiment reported in this article assessed the terror management explanation of the appeal of tragedy. From this perspective, vicarious experience of tragedy, such as through film and literature, provides a safe way of approaching the fear associated with one's own mortality. Thus, we hypothesized that reminding participants of their mortality would increase liking for and emotional response to a tragic excerpt from a novel. Participants were randomly assigned to answer open-ended questions about either their own death or a neutral topic and then read two excerpts from Ernest Hemingway novels, one tragic and one nontragic in content. In support of the terror management hypothesis, participants in the mortality salience condition responded more emotionally to, and were more touched by, the tragic excerpt, found the nontragic excerpt less enjoyable, and cared less for the female character in the nontragic passage than did the control participants.

历代名人吟咏镇海寺

~~五台山学智,并有自利利他的行为,而感到欢喜,故名。徘徊:来回行走的意思。这句是说,佛教认为来去今过都是空的,菩萨到了初地时,虽然已得意忘言,发起了中道之智,但还在徘徊犹豫。[6]这句是说,不要因为隐士和神仙所居的沧洲、瀛洲离我们很远,就说和尚就修不成菩萨和佛。[7]宾王:亦或辅佐帝王的高官大臣。灵隐:即杭州市灵隐寺。这句是说,随从乾隆皇帝第五次去五台山的高官大臣,只会认识灵隐寺,吟咏灵隐寺,但他们在观海的话,思想还是潮起潮伏,静不下心来,没有入定,没有解脱。[8]这句是说,镇海寺正院旁边还有一个院落,名叫永乐院,里面盖着三间…     

任永真开创的张良庙道教丛林

茅山元阳观

元阳观为茅山名观之一,历史悠久.唐代诗人顾况(727-815)曾寓居此观读书多年,后作有<题元阳观旧读书房赠李范>诗云:"此观十年游,此房千里宿,还来旧窗下,更取君书读."该观后毁于战乱,南宋时复建.据<金坛县志>和元代刘大彬<茅山志>记载,南宋隆兴初(1163),吴兴道人沈善智穴居于此,自称洞主.时有黑虎随之出入,人皆异之.后韩蕲王夫人茅氏与侍从者来访遗迹,果见黑虎随道人周旋起伏,因号沈善智为伏虎真人,随即资助构建殿堂,名为"冲虚庵".庆元年间(1195-1200),请得观额,仍名元阳观.此后该观又历经风雨,几度兴废.
