  • 1 David Schweickart's “Economic Democracy”
    David Schweickart’s “Economic Democracy” Loyola University Professor David Schweickart has developed a detailed alternative system model he calls “Economic Democracy.” According to Schweickart, our current economic system—capitalism—rests on three kinds of institutions: markets for goods and services; wage labor; and private control over investment. The problem, he argues, isn’t with markets per se, but with the ownership and management of enterprises and the allocation of the surplus as private investment driven by the overriding interest in profitability. Economic Democracy, therefore, would preserve a role for (regulated) markets in goods and services while extending democracy into the workplace and the linked spheres of finance and investment. In place of private ownership of the means of production with markets in capital, labor, goods and services under capitalism, or state ownership and central planning under various real-world variants of socialism and communism, Economic Democracy has a basic economic structure of socially-owned, worker-controlled firms in a competitive market. The model has neither capital markets nor labor markets in the usual sense. Although workers control their own jobs and workplaces, productive resources would become the collective property of society and there is social control over investment through the allocation of the economic surplus at various levels. Economic Democracy seeks to give workers and local communities greater participatory autonomy, allowing them to more fully influence decisions and shape rules that impact their economic lives. Real-world examples of some of the key institutions of Economic Democracy include the Mondragon network of worker cooperatives in Spain, the practice of worker self-management in the former Yugoslavia, and public and cooperative banks in Germany and in North Dakota.

    Summer 2014 Jeani Taylor, Editor ELAINE AUGUSTINE ABOUT THE JURYING PROCESS By Elaine Augustine, PSA Master Pastelist And a Juror for PSA’s 2014 Enduring Brilliance, National Arts Club, NYC. Twenty-five years ago when the last of my four children went off to college, I started painting again. Raised in an artistic family and painting as far back as I can remember, I had all the tools…just hadn’t had the time while raising my children and helping run the family business. And then I discovered pastels. I Pop Rocks got on a plane and flew to Denver for a workshop with Ramon Kelly, came home, and haven’t stopped painting since then. One of my Bucket List goals was to have a painting accepted in the PSA Annual “For Pastels Only” Exhibition. Got to mark that off my list on second try. And now, years later, I am a PSA Master Pastelist. This past November, I received a call from Pastel Society of America’s President, Jimmy Wright, asking if I would consider being part of a three member jury for this year’s 42nd PSA Annual Exhibition “Enduring Brilliance”. The other juror members were Duane Wakeham and Aline Ordman, also Master Pastelists. I was sooo honored. I was told that this would consume at least a week of my life. No problem…I had closed my 47-year-old family business last fall and was ready to be an active part of the pastel world… doing something besides standing at my easel. In preparation for my duties, I was able to go online to the demonstration option for SHOWSUBMIT to familiarize myself with the jurying process.

Category: Culture and Politics: General Culture Category: Culture and Politics: Education Source: Navigator, 10/2002 Free Speech and Postmodernism By Stephen Hicks (This article is adapted from the second of a two-lecture address given by Stephen Hicks at TOC's 2002 Summer Seminar.) In the last lecture, we looked at those arguments that won the debate for free speech. Historically, those arguments were nested in different Subscription philosophical contexts, and they were often tailored to audiences hostile Information in varying degrees to free speech. So let me summarize, in contemporary language, the elements of those arguments that are still Free sample with us: (1) Reason is essential for knowing reality. (2) Reason is a function of the individual. (3) What the reasoning individual needs to pursue his knowledge of reality is, above all, freedom—the freedom to think, to criticize, and to debate. (4) The individual's freedom to pursue War for knowledge is of fundamental value to the other members of his society. Civilization Commentaries A corollary of this argument is that when we set up specialized social and links on institutions to seek and advance our knowledge of the truth—scientific 9/11, the wars, societies, research institutes, colleges and universities—we should take the cultural roots special pains to protect, nurture, and encourage the freedom of of terror, and creative minds. It is therefore surprising that the greatest current Western values. threats to free speech come from within our colleges and universities.

EIDAHL has been approved for the Department of History and the College of Arts and Sciences by Patrick M. Barr-Melej Professor of History Robert Frank Dean, College of Arts and Sciences 3 ABSTRACT EIDAHL, BRAD T., Ph.D., December 2017, History Writing the Opposition: Power, Coercion, Legitimacy and the Press in Pinochet's Chile Director of Dissertation: Patrick M. Barr-Melej This dissertation examines the struggle between Chile’s opposition press and the dictatorial regime of Augusto Pinochet Ugarte (1973-1990). It argues that due to Chile’s tradition of a pluralistic press and other factors, and in bids to strengthen the regime’s legitimacy, Pinochet and his top officials periodically demonstrated considerable flexibility in terms of the opposition media’s ability to publish and distribute its products. However, the regime, when sensing that its grip on power was slipping, reverted to repressive measures in its dealings with opposition-media outlets. Meanwhile, opposition journalists challenged the very legitimacy Pinochet sought and further widened the scope of acceptable opposition under difficult circumstances. Ultimately, such resistance contributed to Pinochet’s defeat in the 1988 plebiscite, initiating the return of democracy.

  • Tara Smith's Ayn Rand's Normative Ethics
    Review Essay: Tara Smith’s Ayn Rand’s Normative Ethics: The Virtuous Egoist Carrie-Ann Biondi Marymount Manhattan College There has been in academic philosophy a resurgence of naturalistic virtue ethics that renders it a viable competitor with deontology and utilitarianism, making the timing opportune for the appearance of Tara Smith’s Ayn Rand’s Normative Ethics: The Virtuous Egoist.1 Indeed, Smith in part situates her book within this trend, but also contrasts her explication of how Rand’s rational ethical egoism intersects with virtue theories that have at best “danced around the edges of egoism” (p. 1). Thus far, Smith’s book has been generally well received in the few reviews it has gotten,2 especially by scholars and advocates of Rand’s Objectivism. However, some attention from mainstream philosophers, even by those who are sympathetic readers,3 reveals that contemporary moral philosophers struggle to understand the nuanced value theory underlying Objectivism and are slow to embrace full-fledged egoism. This is hardly surprising, given that many (if not most) ethics 1 Tara Smith, Ayn Rand’s Normative Ethics: The Virtuous Egoist (New York: Cambridge University Press, 2006). 2 See Stephen Hicks, “Review of Tara Smith’s Ayn Rand’s Normative Ethics: The Virtuous Egoist,” Philosophy in Review 27, no. 5 (October 2007), pp. 377-79; Helen Cullyer, “Review of Tara Smith’s Ayn Rand’s Normative Ethics: The Virtuous Egoist,” Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews (November 12, 2006), accessed online at: http://ndpr.nd.edu/review.cfm?id=8123; Robert Mayhew, “Review of Tara Smith’s Ayn Rand’s Normative Ethics: The Virtuous Egoist,” Philosophical Books 49, no.

A short time later, the discovery of silver in Zacatecas and Guanajuato initiated growing migration and a road had to be built to move carts full of merchandise, mules, horses and cattle. When the Chichimecs, ancient hunting and gathering peoples who inhabited the region, began to suffer the consequences of the de - s truction by the Spanish and their cattle on their resources, they banded together and began what is known as the War of the Chichimecs. The conflict affected the fledgling town, which was attacked by the Chichimecs and abandoned by its surviving inhabitants. Years later, so the legend goes, Friar Juan de San Mi - guel and his indigenous followers from differ - ent ethnic groups moved the town to a more appropriate place. Their dogs located a gener - ous spring at the foot of which the town of San Miguel el Grande developed.
