By “a comparative civilizational perspective” we mean (1) the use of evidence from more than one civilization (the various national traditions of the modern West being regarded, in this respect, as constituents of a single civilization) and (2) a method likely to throw new light either on the origins, processes, or structures of civilizations or on the problems of interpreting civilizations.

  • What Best Explains the Discrimination Against the Chinese in New Zealand, 1860S-1950S?
    Journal of New Zealand Studies What Best Explains the Discrimination Against the Chinese? What Best Explains the Discrimination Against the Chinese in New Zealand, 1860s-1950s? MILES FAIRBURN University of Canterbury Dominating the relatively substantial literature on the history of the Chinese in New Zealand is the story of their mistreatment by white New Zealanders from the late 1860s through to the 1950s.1 However, the study of discrimination against the Chinese has now reached something of an impasse, one arising from the strong tendency of researchers in the area to advance their favourite explanations for discrimination without arguing why they prefer these to the alternatives. This practice has led to an increase in the variety of explanations and in the weight of data supporting the explanations, but not to their rigorous appraisal. In consequence, while researchers have told us more and more about which causal factors produced discrimination they have little debated or demonstrated the relative importance of these factors. As there is no reason to believe that all the putative factors are of equal importance, knowledge about the causes is not progressing. The object of this paper is to break the impasse by engaging in a systematic comparative evaluation of the different explanations to determine which one might be considered the best. The best explanation is, of course, not perfect by definition. Moreover, in all likelihood an even better explanation will consist of a combination of that best and one or more of the others. But to find the perfect explanation or a combination of explanations we have to start somewhere.

  • Sprawiedliwość Społeczna Jako Idea Solidarności I Równości
    ROCZNIKI FILOZOFICZNE Tom LXVI, numer 1 – 2018 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.18290/rf.2018.66.1-7 ANDRZEJ STOIŃSKI * PRZEOBRAŻENIA IDEI SPRAWIEDLIWOŚCI SPOŁECZNEJ CZĘŚĆ III: SPRAWIEDLIWOŚĆ SPOŁECZNA JAKO IDEA SOLIDARNOŚCI I RÓWNOŚCI Ze sprawiedliwością społeczną identyfikowane są nie tylko różne odmia- ny sprawiedliwości, ale także inne idee. Wśród nich znajdują się na przykład równość i solidarność1. Kreują one obraz egalitarnego społeczeństwa2. Zyg- munt Ziembiński podkreśla jednak, że sprawiedliwość społeczna rozumiana jako urzeczywistnienie społecznej równości lub solidarności nie jest w ogóle odmianą sprawiedliwości, ale odrębną od niej ideą3. Podobnie sugeruje H. Pey- ton Young, który uważa, że treść sprawiedliwości społecznej jest jedną z od- powiedzi na pytanie o pożądany kształt organizacji społeczeństwa4.

  • Port Hedland 1860 – 2012 a Tale of Three Booms
    Institutions, Efficiency and the Organisation of Seaports: A Comparative Analysis By Justin John Pyvis This thesis is presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Murdoch University September 2014 I declare that this thesis is my own account of my research and contains as its main content work which has not previously been submitted for a degree at any tertiary education institution. .................................... Justin John Pyvis Abstract Ports form an essential part of a country's infrastructure by facilitating trade and ultimately helping to reduce the cost of goods for consumers. They are characterised by solidity in physical infrastructure and legislative frameworks – or high levels of “asset specificity” – but also face the dynamics of constantly changing global market conditions requiring flexible responsiveness. Through a New Institutional Economics lens, the ports of Port Hedland (Australia), Prince Rupert (Canada), and Tauranga (New Zealand) are analysed. This dissertation undertakes a cross-country comparative analysis, but also extends the empirical framework into an historical analysis using archival data for each case study from 1860 – 2012. How each port's unique institutional environment – the constraints, or “rules of the game” – affected their development and organisational structure is then investigated. This enables the research to avoid the problem where long periods of economic and political stability in core institutions can become the key explanatory variables. The study demonstrates how the institutional pay-off structure determines what organisational forms come into existence at each port and where, why and how they direct their resources. Sometimes, even immense political will and capital investment will see a port flounder (Prince Rupert); or great resource booms will never be captured (Port Hedland); other times, the port may be the victim of special interest pressure from afar (Tauranga).

  • A Comparative Analysis of Nineteenth-Century Californian and New Zealand Newspaper Representations of Chinese Gold Miners
    Journal of American-East Asian Relations 18 (2011) 248–273 brill.nl/jaer A Comparative Analysis of Nineteenth-Century Californian and New Zealand Newspaper Representations of Chinese Gold Miners Grant Hannis Massey University Email: [email protected] Abstract During the nineteenth-century gold rush era, Chinese gold miners arrived spontaneously in California and, later, were invited in to work the Otago goldfi elds in New Zealand. Th is article considers how the initial arrival of Chinese in those areas was represented in two major newspapers of the time, the Daily Alta California and the Otago Witness . Both newspapers initially favored Chinese immigration, due to the economic benefi ts that accrued and the generally tolerant outlook of the newspapers’ editors. Th e structure of the papers’ coverage diff ered, however, refl ecting the diff ering historical circumstances of California and Otago. Both papers gave little space to reporting Chinese in their own voices. Th e newspapers editors played the crucial role in shaping each newspaper’s coverage over time. Th e editor of the Witness remained at the helm of his newspaper throughout the survey period and his newspaper consequently did not waver in its support of the Chinese. Th e editor of the Alta , by contrast, died toward the end of the survey period and his newspaper subsequently descended into racist, anti-Chinese rhetoric. Keywords Gold Rush , Chinese gold miners , Daily Alta California , Otago Witness , content analysis , Chinese in California , Chinese in New Zealand A dramatic change in the ethnic mix of the white-dominated western United States occurred in the middle of the nineteenth century, with the sudden infl ux of thousands of Chinese gold miners.

  • “In the School of Prophets Throws Fresh Light on the Integral Relationship Between Prophecy and Mysticism in Merton's Life A
    “In the School of Prophets throws fresh light on the integral relationship between prophecy and mysticism in Merton’s life and writings. Mining a range of sources sometimes overlooked in Merton studies, Ephrem Arcement ably guides the reader beneath the surface of the many-faceted diamond that is Merton’s paradoxical spirituality of solitude and social engagement, resistance and hope. Especially in Merton’s engagement with poetic visionaries like Blake and Vallejo, Arcement gestures to Christian hope as seeking to cut through the ‘great tangled knot of lies’ in mass society even while recognizing the ‘flowering of ordinary possibilities’ hidden in everyday life. An aptly rich and multilayered study of Merton’s Christ-haunted spirituality, still drawing us in, one hundred years after his birth.” — Christopher Pramuk Associate Professor, Theology Xavier University Author of At Play in Creation: Merton’s Awakening to the Feminine Divine “Ephrem Arcement situates Merton’s prophetic life and witness, most pronounced in the final decade of his life, within a much broader understanding of the prophetic vocation, integrating many seemingly diffuse elements from throughout Merton’s life. In the School of Prophets is a thoughtful, challenging treatise that underscores Merton’s stature as a true man of God, like the prophets of old, calling us forward and challenging us to labor for the fidelity to God to which Merton himself strived. This is a refreshing and vital approach to understanding Merton’s prophetic vocation.” — Dr. Paul M. Pearson Director
