The tr~nscctionalapproach to Lin/3istic behavior focuses on the entire si[;n-9:-ocess rather thn nsti.ficizlly pronoting the ( iv) distinction between n sign, the user of the si~n,and that :!hich is sipified.

It is argued that smlall co-operative cornunities me essentid for the creation znd maintenance of the habits of comion sense, end that uniquely huzlnn manif estatians such 3s 'nind' and 'consciousness' are products of social activity. The second pxt of the thesis outlines the steady rise in ~opulcrityof the ideals of individualism at the same tine as technolocical and econonic ch;:n~es began to erode the I coimunitn~isninstitutions 02 the middle ac;es.

The pessimism goes much deeper and appears to be well rooted in an often expressed feeling that technology has run amuck; that man's technological abilities have by far outstripped his social understanding and that we cast ourselves adrift on a fearful ocean of possibilities without oar or rudder. For perhaps the first time, man's ability with tools has amplified his strengths, and in relation thereby deepened his weaknesses to the point where he is able to do the entire race, even t&e living globe, genuine and lasting harm, We know far better -how to do things than we know -what to do, It seems that the current pessimism has broad roots, and this realization suggests that its causes cannot be understood nor rectified by a little specialized academic chiseling on one rootlet or another, No academic field or discipline seems broad enough in view or methodology by itself to grasp or grapple with such a broad and overwhelming problem. Various disciplines have come up against internal conditions of diminishing return suggesting failures of sense within the fundamental assunptions of the fields themselves, This realization has lead to an interest in the establishment 2, of multi-disciplinary approaches to important practical problems, In turn, the experienced difficulties of coordinntion 2nd communication within such interdisciplinary groups has lead to an interest in highly general theoretical approaches on one hand, and on the other hand, a renewed interest in the fundamental principles of human communication. Unfortunately, although it seems thzt the foundation of successful communication is a common framework of under- standing, it does not follow that efforts at communication necessarily result in better understanding. Fortunately, in large measure, the common practices of survival on the same planet assure a degree of congruence in the languages of ordinary life. Reasonable translations from one language to another are generally possible, although a considerable distortion of sense can occur over things which are not comon between two linguistic groups. But in strictly theoretical undertakings beyond the possibility of reference to actual common experiences, no degree of congruance of usuage is assured even among members of the same lingjuistic group, The sense of specialized jargon depends on the close cooperation and frequent comnunication of those who share an intense practical interest in the specific undertakings , of the field, The recognition that there are structural similarities in the various theoretical frnmeworks of different fields of investigation leads to the consideration that underneath the 3- surface there is a deep structure; a super-general kind of order that, if correctly interpreted, will enable men to tie everything together in a way that will generate sense where now there is only nonsense. Unfortunately, it is equally reasonable to assume that whatever structural similarities exist may simply be artifacts of a reliance on a limited pool of logical and mathematical resources rather than profound reflections of a deep order inherent in the universe itself, The earnest effort to avoid ontological and epistemological constructions, that is, intermediaryfithings" which have no demonstrable existence in the actual world leads a theoretician to positivism, or beyond, to pragmatism which attempts to build the universe of actual things directly onsthe foundations of observable human behaviors? with special attention to the fact that men are social animals whose behavior consists of transac- tions within contributing environment in which change ever present feature. To the extent that the pragmatic viewpoint stresses that the roots of knowing are behavioral and social, it represents an ideal philosophical foundation for an understanding of human coinmunication, It is a viewpoint which revolves around nan as an actor in a participating world, and which places man's sociality at the root of the uniquely human business of tallring. A fundaiiental thrust of this paper is to examine the social matrix communicztion from a pragmatist view and to view soae aspects of the current social scene in the light of sone implications of this view.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This was produced from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material subm itted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)”. If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure you of complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark it is an indication that the film inspector noticed either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, or duplicate copy. Unless we meaht to delete copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed, you will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. If copyrighted materials were deleted you will find a target note listing the pages in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photo­ graphed the photographer has followed a definite method in “sectioning” the material. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete.

  • Fire – and the Ecology of Man, by E. V. Komarek, Sr., Pp
    Proceedings: 6th Tall Timbers Fire Ecology Conference 1967 Fire-and the Ecology of Man E. V. KOMAREK, SR. Tall Timbers Research Station As I review the past six Annual Tall Timbers Fire Ecology Conferences, the 77 very competent papers presented, representing a diversity of disciplines from a large segment of the globe and the many stimulating, inspiring and mind-searching dis­ cussions generated thereby, I am reminded of the following statement from Dobzhansky's Mankind Evolving (1962): Science is cumulative knowledge. This makes scientific theories relatively impermanent, especially during the epochs when knowl­ edge piles up something like geometric progression. Scientists should be conscious of the provisional and transient nature of their attainments. Any scientist worth his salt labors to bring about the obsolescence of his own work. Certainly our efforts have added to "cumulative knowledge" in "something like geometric progression." Many of our ideas have grown, changed and continue to evolve, and we all labor to bring about the obsolescence of our own work. Dobzhansky states additionally: Two rival trends vie constantly for influence in science-spe­ cialization and synthesis. The former usually predominates. Scien­ tists are specialists; a good specialist is able to master only some fraction of human knowledge. Attempts to synthesis knowl- 143 Proceedings: 6th Tall Timbers Fire Ecology Conference 1967 E.

    ALEXANDER SCRIABIN (1871-1915): PIANO MINIATURE AS CHRONICLE OF HIS CREATIVE EVOLUTION; COMPLEXITY OF INTERPRETIVE APPROACH AND ITS IMPLICATIONS Nataliya Sukhina, B.M., M.M. Dissertation Prepared for the Degree of DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS May 2008 APPROVED: Vladimir Viardo, Major Professor Elvia Puccinelli, Minor Professor Pamela Paul, Committee Member Graham Phipps, Director of Graduate Studies in the College of Music James C. Scott, Dean of the College of Music Sandra L. Terrell, Dean of the Robert B. Toulouse School of Graduate Studies Sukhina, Nataliya. Alexander Scriabin (1871-1915): Piano miniature as chronicle of his creative evolution; Complexity of interpretive approach and its implications. Doctor of Musical Arts (Performance), May 2008, 86 pp., 30 musical examples, 3 tables, 1 figure, references, 70 titles. Scriabin’s piano miniatures are ideal for the study of evolution of his style, which underwent an extreme transformation. They present heavily concentrated idioms and structural procedures within concise form, therefore making it more accessible to grasp the quintessence of the composer’s thought. A plethora of studies often reviews isolated genres or periods of Scriabin’s legacy, making it impossible to reveal important general tendencies and inner relationships between his pieces. While expanding the boundaries of tonality, Scriabin completed the expansion and universalization of the piano miniature genre. Starting from his middle years the ‘poem’ characteristics can be found in nearly every piece. The key to this process lies in Scriabin’s compilation of certain symbolical musical gestures. Separation between technical means and poetic intention of Scriabin’s works as well as rejection of his metaphysical thought evolution result in serious interpretive implications.

Among the scientists Charles Darwin was lead by his convictions on the evolution of man to a disbelief in God, or at least to agnosticism. “ I think, ” he wrote, “ that generally (and more and more as I grow older) but not always, that an Agnostic would be the more correct description of my state of mind.

  • Man in Noosphere: Evolution and Further Development1
    Man in Noosphere: Evolution and Further Development1 Sergiy Sonko2 Doctor of Geographical Sciences, Professor, National University of Horticulture (Uman, Ukraine) E-mail: [email protected] https://orcid.org/0000-0002-7080-9564 The absence of the paradigm of the socio-natural development of the noospheric level is now confirmed by the almost complete fiasco of the concept of sustainable development (especially after Rio + 20). The main reason for this is the incorrect positioning of the “Homo” species in the biosphere of the planet. “Ecotope” Homo Sapiens goes far beyond the organism level of the species organization and covers the ecosystem level, forming an agroecosystem, as an ecological niche with moving spatial boundaries. The reason for the aggravation of the global ecological problem is the spatial inconsistency of the territorial combinations of the noospheric ecosystems. As close to sustainable, the priority development of agroecosystems as socio-natural systems is proposed and the need to “inscribe” administrative-territorial division into their borders, since just then the content of interaction between nature and society will be approximated to the adaptive content. Keywords: agroecosystem, biosphere, sustainable, ecological, noosphere Received: June 4, 2018; accepted: August 10, 2018 Philosophy and Cosmology, Volume 22, 2019: 51-74. DOI: https://doi.org/10.29202/phil-cosm/22/5 Introduction After a long discussion that has lasted probably since the first reports of the Roman Club the main issue of nature management “Why is the global environmental problem still unresolved?” remains unanswered. Even the recent fundamental works on this problem [Yablokov et al., 2015, 2016, 2017] give a very weak hope for a constructive solution to it.
