This paper offers an analysis of the notion the quest for identity. The discussion emphasizes the importance of communal belonging, but rejects the view that one ought to belong to the community one was born to. It suggests that the quest for identity may lead individuals to follow many avenues: while some individuals might affirm their inherent affiliations and traditions, others may remain within their community of origin and strive to change its ways, or chose to leave their social group and opt for membership in a new one. This analysis suggests that choice, characteristic of the liberal conception of the person, and rootedness, characteristic of the communitarian conception of the person, both play an important role in the formation of personal identity. 相似文献

In this paper I compare the roles that the explicit and implicit educational theories of John Dewey and John Rawls play in
their political works to show that Rawls’s approach is skeletal and inappropriate for defenders of democracy. I also uphold
Dewey’s belief that education is valuable in itself, not only derivatively, contra Rawls. Next, I address worries for any
educational theory concerning problems of distributive justice. Finally, I defend Dewey’s commitment to democracy as a consequence
of the demands of productive public inquiry and education.

This article is a reply to the three reviews of my book What Things Do: Philosophical Reflections on Technology, Agency, and Design (Verbeek 2005) in this symposium. It discusses the remarks made by the reviewers along five lines. The first is methodological and concerns
the question of how to develop a philosophical approach to technology. The second line discusses the philosophical orientation
of the book, and the relations between analytic and continental approaches. Third, I will discuss the metaphysical aspects
of the book, in particular the nature and value of the non-modernist approach it aims to set out. Fourth, I will discuss the
social and political relevance of the book. Fifth, this will bring me to some concluding remarks about how the postphenomenological
perspective developed in the book relates to liberalism, focusing on its suggestions to deliberately design our material environment
in terms of mediation.

After 9/11 there is a general sense of the crisis of liberalism and secularism, and the need for greater security and surveillance.
Diasporic Muslim communities have been increasingly the target of government interventions and investigations, resulting in
various forms of governmentality that in fact constitute a ‘management of Muslims.’ The traditional strategies of benign neglect
have been replaced by periods of intense governmental activity. The idea of ‘managing Muslims’ is often disguised by a more
neutral terminology such as pluralism or multiculturalism. This article examines two versions of the management of religions
from policies of ‘upgrading’ or retraining of Muslims for modernity to more robust policies of containment, rendition and
seclusion. The result of securitisation and globalisation is the rise of a new type of society that I call ‘the enclave society.’
In such societies governments are creating new policies of ‘enclavement’ to quarantine communities that are undesirable or
unwanted or dangerous. The mobility of a global society is now being constrained by encirclement and enclavement through building
walls, ghettoes, catchments and no-go areas. Such policies are likely to be counter productive, requiring an escalation of
draconian interventions. 相似文献

Although skeptics continue to doubt that most people are “ideological,” evidence suggests that meaningful left‐right differences do exist and that they may be rooted in basic personality dispositions, that is, relatively stable individual differences in psychological needs, motives, and orientations toward the world. Seventy‐five years of theory and research on personality and political orientation has produced a long list of dispositions, traits, and behaviors. Applying a theory of ideology as motivated social cognition and a “Big Five” framework, we find that two traits, Openness to New Experiences and Conscientiousness, parsimoniously capture many of the ways in which individual differences underlying political orientation have been conceptualized. In three studies we investigate the relationship between personality and political orientation using multiple domains and measurement techniques, including: self‐reported personality assessment; nonverbal behavior in the context of social interaction; and personal possessions and the characteristics of living and working spaces. We obtained consistent and converging evidence that personality differences between liberals and conservatives are robust, replicable, and behaviorally significant, especially with respect to social (vs. economic) dimensions of ideology. In general, liberals are more open‐minded, creative, curious, and novelty seeking, whereas conservatives are more orderly, conventional, and better organized. 相似文献

Consumer Rights to Informed Choice on the Food Market 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Volkert Beekman 《Ethical Theory and Moral Practice》2008,11(1):61-72
The discourse about traceability in food chains focused on traceability as means towards the end of managing health risks.
This discourse witnessed a call to broaden traceability to accommodate consumer concerns about foods that are not related
to health. This call envisions the development of ethical traceability. This paper presents a justification of ethical traceability.
The argument is couched in liberal distinctions, since the call for ethical traceability is based on intuitions about consumer
rights to informed choice. The paper suggests that two versions of ethical traceability find justification. The first version
of ethical traceability entails that governments ensure that all consumers are provided with foods that respect some threshold
level of, e.g., animal welfare that is supported by an overlapping consensus. The second version of ethical traceability entails
that food producers provide consumers with products, and sufficient information about these products, that are relevant for
reasonable, non-superficial values that are not supported by an overlapping consensus. Governments should facilitate this
in the sense that consumers are not provided with misinformation about characteristics of foods that are relevant for reasonable,
non-superficial values that are not supported by an overlapping consensus.

In this study, the relations among political ideology, exploratory behavior, and the formation of attitudes toward novel stimuli were explored. Participants played a computer game that required learning whether these stimuli produced positive or negative outcomes. Learning was dependent on participants’ decisions to sample novel stimuli and discover the associated valence. Political ideology correlated with exploration during the game, with conservatives sampling fewer targets than liberals. Moreover, more conservative individuals exhibited a stronger learning asymmetry, such that they learned negative stimuli better than positive. Mediational analyses revealed that the differences in learning were due to the extent of exploratory behavior during the game. Relative to liberals, politically conservative individuals pursued a more avoidant strategy to the game, which led to their development of a more pronounced valence asymmetry in learning and attitude formation. 相似文献
