  • Philosophy and the Professional Image of Philosophy
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by University of Minnesota Digital Conservancy Philosophy and the Professional Image of Philosophy A Dissertation SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Thomas Doyle IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Co-advisors: Alan Love & Doug Lewis May, 2014 Copyright Thomas Doyle, 2014 Acknowledgements The first philosophy course I took was called "The American Pragmatists" (I have never thought of the logic course I took before that as a course in philosophy). It was taught by John Dreher at Lawrence University. Professor Dreher introduced me to philosophy and has continued to be a model for me of what a philosophy teacher should be. He was funny, demanding and caring. It is because of him and that course that I have always thought of John Dewey as an important philosopher, and it was because of him that I wanted to be a philosophy professor. I have known Sandra Peterson and Doug Lewis for more than 20 years now, and they continue to be my teachers. It is because of them that I love the history of philosophy, and it is in comparison to them that I continue to see how much more I have to learn. Sandra opened my eyes to a different way of reading Plato, and her insights and scholarship have emboldened me to question the traditional ways philosophical texts have been read. The many hours Doug spent with me talking about this dissertation, and about his experience as a philosophy professor, and then this year with Yi talking about the history of logic, have been the highlight of my education (and that's saying something, because I've been in school for a long, long time).

Porous Empire: Foreign Visitors And The Post-Stalin Soviet State Abstract “Porous Empire” is a study of the relationship between Soviet institutions, Soviet society and the millions of foreigners who visited the USSR between the mid-1950s and the mid-1980s. “Porous Empire” traces how Soviet economic, propaganda, and state security institutions, all shaped during the isolationist Stalin period, struggled to accommodate their practices to millions of visitors with material expectations and assumed legal rights radically unlike those of Soviet citizens. While much recent Soviet historiography focuses on the ways in which the post-Stalin opening to the outside world led to the erosion of official Soviet ideology, I argue that ideological attitudes inherited from the Stalin era structured institutional responses to a growing foreign presence in Soviet life. Therefore, while Soviet institutions had to accommodate their economic practices to the growing numbers of tourists and other visitors inside the Soviet borders and were forced to concede the existence of contact zones between foreigners and Soviet citizens that loosened some of the absolute sovereignty claims of the Soviet party-statem, they remained loyal to visions of Soviet economic independence, committed to fighting the cultural Cold War, and profoundly suspicious of the outside world.
