BtSHOJ' MOSEtrM INTRODUCTION The following report on crustaceans selected from materia1lwhich has accumulated in Bishop Museum for several years inc1uder (1), new species, (2) known species as new Hawaiian records, an,(i (3) known species rarely recorded in the central Pacific. Recently, valuable collections have been received as a result of the current dredging operations of the M alliin, a boat of the Fi hand Game Division, Territorial Board of Agriculture and Forestry. These collections clearly reveal the presence of a crustacean fauna a ut the Hawaiian Islands. at depths of about 10 fathoms and beyond, which is not seen on the shallow reefs. Many of the unique species taken nearly 50 years ago by the Albatross of the United States Fis Com~ mission have again been brought to view. Other rare crustaceans recorded in the report were receive1 from the Honolulu Aquarium and came from fish traps operated b~ com­ mercial fishermen off the coast of Oahu at depths ranging aro~nd 16 fathoms. These specimens show that fauna at these depths har close affinities with that of the western Pacific and the Indian Ocej. It is well known that many organisms, both land and marine ~orrns, have been introduced into the Hawaiian area within recent I.years, chiefly as a result of war activities. Ocean-going craft returning to Hawaii from forward areas in the Pacific transport on theil' hulls marine organisms not previously recognized among local shore fauna, and some of these inunigrants become established in the new e9viron­ ment.

  • Hans Reichenbach
    Coming to America: Carnap, Reichenbach and the Great Intellectual Migration Part II: Hans Reichenbach Sander Verhaegh Tilburg University Ich habe das Gefühl, dass gerade Amerika mit seinem Sinn für das konkrete und technische mehr Verständnis haben müsste für meine naturwissenschaftliche Philosophie als Europa, wo noch immer die mystisch-metaphysischen Spekulationen als die wahre Philosophie angesehen werden. ⎯ Reichenbach to Sidney Hook, January 31, 1935 II.1. Introduction In the late-1930s, Rudolf Carnap and Hans Reichenbach, arguably the two most prominent scientific philosophers of their time, emigrated to the United States, escaping the increasingly perilous situation on the continent. Once in the U.S., the two significantly changed the American philosophical landscape. In this two-part paper, I reconstruct Carnap’s and Reichenbach’s surprisingly numerous interactions with American scholars throughout the 1920s and 1930s in order to better explain the transformation of analytic philosophy in the years before and after the Second World War. In the first part of this paper, I reconstructed Carnap’s contacts with American philosophers throughout the 1920s and 1930s. In this second part, I focus on Reichenbach’s interactions with the American philosophical community before he moved to the United States. I argue that some of Reichenbach’s work from the mid-1930s⎯ in particular Experience and Prediction (1938)⎯ can be better understood if we take into account the context in which it was written. This paper is structured as follows. After an overview of Reichenbach’s ignorance about Anglophone philosophy in the first stages of his academic career (§II.2), I reconstruct his ‘American turn’ in the early 1930s, focusing especially on the reception of his philosophy by a group of New York philosophers (§II.3).

  • Dancing on Terra -- with Terror: Disciplines Reframing Terrifying
    Alternative view of segmented documents via Kairos 20th March 2004 | Draft Dancing on Terra -- with Terror Disciplines reframing terrifying relationships -- / -- Introduction Since the 9/11 attack on the World Trade Center, the response has been framed in strictly binary logic: " You are either with us, or you are against us". All governments and peoples of the world are urged to engage in the "war against terrorism" -- in defence of the highest values of civilization. The focus of this war, and any response to further attacks, is on how to stop terrorists. Stopping terrorists is framed as a question of capturing any who may be suspect (whatever the evidence), incarcerating them (without trial), or killing them (whether in military action or through covert assassination). The resources devoted to remedy the impoverishment and injustice, which many recognize as a breeding ground for terrorists, have diminished at a rate commensurate with the increase in resources allocated to "security", whether in the form of military equipment, surveillance, or the associated personnel. Very little effort is made, or called for -- by the media, politicians or engaged groups -- to look beyond the immediate action of terrorists to address the conditions that give rise to them. The focus of conceptual and financial resources is on proximate causes of violence and not on the contextual causes which willl continue to ensure that new terrorists emerge. The following explores the possibility that many disciplines, representing the core intellectual achievement of modern civilization, have developed conceptual approaches that reframe the crude simplicity of the current focus on proximate causes of terrifying relationships.
