  • Accountability and the Promise of Performance: in Search of The
    Accountability and the Promise of Performance: In Search of the Mechanisms Melvin J. Dubnick Professor of Political Science & Public Administration Rutgers University – Newark & Visiting Professor Institute of Governance, Public Policy and Social Research Queen’s University, Belfast [email protected] Prepared for delivery at the 2003 Annual Meeting of the American Political Science Association, August 28-31, Philadelphia, PA & Conference of the European Group of Public Administration (EGPA) September 3-6, 2003, Lisbon, Portugal ver: 8/29/03 Self-evident truths are frequently invoked when scholars and policymakers propose political reforms. We often hear: "It is obvious that X is true, therefore we need to do Y." The implication of this assertion is that common sense dictates our understanding of the problem and the solution. But is it really the case that X is true? And is Y really the best response? The fact that something is widely believed does not make it correct. (Ostrom 2000) Introduction: The Promise of Performance Among the pervasive notions characterizing contemporary public administration rhetoric and scholarship is the idea of accountability as the solution to a wide range of problems. According to proponents of accountability-centered reforms, enhanced accountability will (among other things) result in · greater transparency and openness in a world threatened by the powerful forces of hierarchy and bureaucratization (the promise of democracy) (O'Donnell 1998; Schedler, Diamond, and Plattner 1999); · access to impartial arenas where abuses of authority can be challenged and judged (the promise of justice) (Borneman 1997; Miller 1998; Ambos 2000); · pressures and oversight that will promote appropriate behavior on the part of public officials (the promise of ethical behavior) (Gray and Jenkins 1993; Anechiarico and Jacobs 1994; Morgan and Reynolds 1997; Dubnick 2003c); and · improvements in the quality of government services (the promise of performance).

  • Chapter 4: Answers and Comments
    Chapter 4: Answers and Comments Answers: I. True or False 1. See textbook. 2. False. One of the most common mistakes. The focus should be even if the premise is true, the reasoning is weak. 3. See textbook. 4. True. We could criticize the truth of the premise as well, but this would not be relevant to the focus of a fallacy of relevance. 5. True. There is nothing inherently wrong with loyalty as a behavior or an emotion. The point is there should be good reasons, which we have thought about, for our loyalty commitments. 6. FALSE! Two Wrongs is a fallacy of relevance, so the focus is not on the truth of the premise. The focus should be on the reasoning. Usually the premise is true, but irrelevant to why either item compared should be considered good. 7. See textbook. 8. False. The name-calling is always in the premise. 9. False. In our age many in-group appeals are aimed at sub-cultural groups. People who believe they are more intelligent than most, more cool, more modern, etc. 10. True. 11. True. For a complete argument analysis, these two points must be made. 12. False. It was used as an example for structuring arguments. It will be covered in Chapter 5. We will see that it is a fallacy of relevance and it always has a premise that is relevant to the conclusion. 13. False. There could be very good reasons for a particular act of loyalty. 14. True. In this chapter there will be situations where the difference between one label and another is inconsequential.

  • Chapter 4: INFORMAL FALLACIES I
    Essential Logic Ronald C. Pine Chapter 4: INFORMAL FALLACIES I All effective propaganda must be confined to a few bare necessities and then must be expressed in a few stereotyped formulas. Adolf Hitler Until the habit of thinking is well formed, facing the situation to discover the facts requires an effort. For the mind tends to dislike what is unpleasant and so to sheer off from an adequate notice of that which is especially annoying. John Dewey, How We Think Introduction In everyday speech you may have heard someone refer to a commonly accepted belief as a fallacy. What is usually meant is that the belief is false, although widely accepted. In logic, a fallacy refers to logically weak argument appeal (not a belief or statement) that is widely used and successful. Here is our definition: A logical fallacy is an argument that is usually psychologically persuasive but logically weak. By this definition we mean that fallacious arguments work in getting many people to accept conclusions, that they make bad arguments appear good even though a little commonsense reflection will reveal that people ought not to accept the conclusions of these arguments as strongly supported. Although logicians distinguish between formal and informal fallacies, our focus in this chapter and the next one will be on traditional informal fallacies.1 For our purposes, we can think of these fallacies as "informal" because they are most often found in the everyday exchanges of ideas, such as newspaper editorials, letters to the editor, political speeches, advertisements, conversational disagreements between people in social networking sites and Internet discussion boards, and so on.

  • Nuevos Horizontes En La Investigación Del Arte Prehistórico. Cuestiones
    NUEVOS HORIZONTES EN LA INVESTIGACIÓN DEL ARTE PREHISTÓRICO: CUESTIONES GENERALES Y ESTADO DE LA CUESTIÓN por ANTONIO BELTRÁN Los frecuentes descubrimientos de yacimientos con arte prehistórico en la Península Ibérica han introducido cambios importantes en las ideas gene­ ralmente admitidas, tanto respecto del arte paleolítico como del llamado «le­ vantino», y desde luego en el arte «esquemático». Los esquemas impuestos por la autoridad del abate H. BREUIL, de A. LEROI-GOURHAN y, en cierto modo, por la de E. RIPOLL y nosotros mismos, han provocado que fueran tenidas como excepciones observaciones que contradecían objetivamente los pragmatismos citados de cómodo manejo y que se incorporaban marginal- mente, a lo sumo, a sucesivas puestas al día que, al poco tiempo, quedaban a su vez anticuadas al no modificar la base de los problemas y limitarse a aceptar supuestos «datos anómalos» que al multiplicarse obligan a una revi­ sión de los problemas hasta ahora admitidos como indiscutibles, lo que nos proponemos realizar en este breve artículo. Dado que hemos de exponer nuestras discutibles opiniones, deberá perdo­ nársenos que citemos algunos trabajos nuestros, recientes o todavía en pren­ sa, que han de servirnos como punto de partida para evitar repeticiones inne­ cesarias que extenderían excesivamente las presentes notas. Nos referimos, sobre todo, aparte de las citas que figuran más adelante, a nuestro plantea­ miento del estado de la cuestión sobre el arte paleolítico español presentado al Coloquio de PERIGUEUX-LE THOT, 1984: El arte parietal paleolítico español: Estado de la cuestión según los últimos descubrimientos (a propósito del Coloquio Internacional de Perigueux-Le Thot, 19-22 noviembre, 1984), «Arqueología», Madrid, 1985, VI, 48, p.
