In order to pursue this goal, it is necessary to clarify the key concepts that inform this paper namely: Education, Quality, Relevance, Critical Thinking, and Critical Thinking Triad. The analytical dimension of critical thinking involves identifying the fundamental structures or elements of any form of thinking. Thought comprises of parts namely: purposes, questions, points of view, information, inferences, concepts, implications, and assumptions. (Paul and Elder, 2001: 50). The evaluative dimension of critical thinking comprises of universal intellectual standards that are useful in assessing the quality of thought. They include: clarity, accuracy, precision, relevance, depth, breadth, logicalness, significance, and adequacy among others (Paul and Elder, 2002:98). Quotes -The conceptual framework that informs the paper is Paul and Elder’s (2002) conception of Critical Thinking. Referenced From Paul, R. 1995.

  • A Critical Concept of Injustice. Trichotomy Critique, Explanation, and Normativity
    http://dx.doi.org/10.5007/1677-2954.2014v13n1p50 A CRITICAL CONCEPT OF INJUSTICE. TRICHOTOMY CRITIQUE, EXPLANATION, AND NORMATIVITY UM CONCEITO CRÍTICO DE INJUSTIÇA. A TRICOTOMIA CRÍTICA, ESCLARECIMENTO E NORMATIVIDADE MAREK HRUBEC1 (Charles University, Czech Republic) ABSTRACT The article deals with an issue of a critical concept of injustice. It concentrates on injustice by focusing on three fundamental elements of Critical theory of society: critique, explanation, and normativity. Firstly, it clarifies the need for critical social criticism to have an internal character. Secondly, it concentrates on relations between individual elements of the above-mentioned trichotomy, and stresses the consequences of such an analysis for a Critical social theory. It shows that only an articulation of all three elements in their mutual constitutive relations will enable to work out a critical concept of in/justice. Keywords: Injustice. Justice. Critical Theory. Critique. Explanation. Normativity. A theory of justice requires a critical concept of injustice2. I will articulate such a concept from the point of view of Critical Theory of Society. I will analyze three fundamental elements of Critical Theory – critique, explanation and normativity – which can be identified already in the initial programmatic documents of the founders of Critical Theory (the Frankfurt School), and consequently mapped in texts of their followers up until today. Although these elements have been present in Critical Theory since its beginning, and their existence was an implicit precondition for Critical Theory, they have been articulated only vaguely in their complex mutual relations. This is because only some of these elements have as a rule been addressed, and because just a few of the relations between them have been discussed.

    GENERIC AFFINITIES, POSTHUMANISMS, SCIENCE-FICTIONAL IMAGININGS SPECULATIVE MATTER: GENERIC AFFINITIES, POSTHUMANISMS AND SCIENCE-FICTIONAL IMAGININGS By LAURA M. WIEBE, B.A., M.A. A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy McMaster University © Copyright by Laura Wiebe, October 2012 McMaster University DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY (2012) Hamilton, Ontario (English and Cultural Studies) TITLE: Speculative Matter: Generic Affinities, Posthumanisms and Science-Fictional Imaginings AUTHOR: Laura Wiebe, B.A. (University of Waterloo), M.A. (Brock University) SUPERVISOR: Professor Anne Savage NUMBER OF PAGES: vi, 277 ii ABSTRACT Amidst the technoscientific ubiquity of the contemporary West (or global North), science fiction has come to seem the most current of genres, the narrative form best equipped to comment on and work through the social, political and ethical quandaries of rapid technoscientific development and the ways in which this development challenges conventional understandings of human identity and rationality. By this framing, the continuing popularity of stories about paranormal phenomena and supernatural entities – on mainstream television, or in print genres such as urban fantasy and paranormal romance – may seem to be a regressive reaction against the authority of and experience of living in technoscientific modernity. Nevertheless, the boundaries of science fiction, as with any genre, are relational rather than fixed, and critical engagements with Western/Northern technoscientific knowledge and practice and modern human identity and being may be found not just in science fiction “proper,” or in the scholarly field of science and technology studies, but also in the related genres of fantasy and paranormal romance.

  • Hermeneutics, the New Historicism ,
    294 Hermeneutics, the New Historicism , and C_parative Literature Studies Rolf J. Goebel Department of Foreign Languages and Literatures, The University of Alabama in Huntsville, Huntsville, Alabama 35899 U.S.A. Inasmuch as Comparative Literature Studies investigate the interrelations between texts from different cultures, they must inevitably address, on the level of methodological self-reflection, the question of how history affects the creation of these texts as well as their critical interpretation. Perhaps this re­ minder is unnecessary because for many members of the discipline, the impor­ tance of history in this sense seems self-evident; on the other hand, Frank Len- triccia, in his impressive history of modern literary criticism, draws our atten­ tion to the fact that one of the prevailing influences of the New Criticism can be seen "in the repeated and often extremely subtle denial of history by a vari­ ety of contemporary theoristsM (xiii). In this situation, it is opportune to reha­ bilitate history as a central category of literary theory and criticism. My essay discusses the role of history in textual interpretation and offers some tentative suggestions as to the significance of recent historical criticism for Comparative Literature Studies. I History enters literary interpretation on at least two dialectically related xix 一 293 levels: the historicity of literature, i.e., the participation of texts in the socio- historical situation of their production and original reception, corresponds to the historicity of the critics (and other readers), i.e., to the dependency of their interpretive discourses on the cultural norms, socio political formations, ideolo­ gies, etc., of their own time.
