The Impact of Aenesidemus Upon Fichte and Schopenhauer

It is of Schopenhauer course in response to this perceived requirement that Fichte constructs a system of transcendental idealism which asserts that the self itself conceived of as primordially an absolute self-reverting activity - should RICHARD FINCHAM be the absolute foundation of all philosophy. This article will show why it is that for Fichte, 'reflective consciousness', which for Kant was the ground of all explanation, becomes conceived of as itself requiring explanation. It will be argued Fichte's reconfiguration of Kantian transcendental idealism is motivated that this is due to an engagement with a sceptical attack upon the by an engagement with two specific 'commentaries' upon it. Firstly, transcendental idealism of Kant and Reinhold named after (and Fichte was clearly convinced by Reinhold's complaint that the Critique's supposedly expounded by) the neo-Pyrrhonean sceptic Aenesidemus, principles can only "become universally binding"l by being grounded [I which was published anonymously in 1792, but was later revealed to be upon a universally valid and indubitable "self-explanatory,,2 foundation, the work of G. -

Journal of Artificial Intelligence Research 10 (1999) 117-167 Submitted 2/98; published 3/99 Modeling Belief in Dynamic Systems Part II: Revision and Update Nir Friedman [email protected] Institute of Computer Science Hebrew University, Jerusalem, 91904, ISRAEL http://www.cs.huji.ac.il/∼nir Joseph Y. Halpern [email protected] Computer Science Department Cornell University, Ithaca, NY 14853 http://www.cs.cornell.edu/home/halpern Abstract The study of belief change has been an active area in philosophy and AI. In recent years two special cases of belief change, belief revision and belief update, have been studied in detail. In a companion paper (Friedman & Halpern, 1997), we introduce a new framework to model belief change. This framework combines temporal and epistemic modalities with a notion of plausibility, allowing us to examine the change of beliefs over time. In this paper, we show how belief revision and belief update can be captured in our framework. This allows us to compare the assumptions made by each method, and to better understand the principles underlying them. In particular, it shows that Katsuno and Mendelzon’s notion of belief update (Katsuno & Mendelzon, 1991a) depends on several strong assumptions that may limit its applicability in artificial intelligence. Finally, our analysis allow us to identify a notion of minimal change that underlies a broad range of belief change operations including revision and update. 1.

Factors Leading to Civil Unrest in the Wake of Police Lethal Use of Force Incidents
CALIFORNIA BAPTIST UNIVERSITY Riverside, California Factors Leading to Civil Unrest in the Wake of Police Lethal Use of Force Incidents: A Tale of Two Cities A Dissertation Submitted in partial fulfillment of the Requirements for the degree Doctor of Public Administration George Richard Austin, Jr. Division of Online and Professional Studies Department of Public Administration April 2019 Factors Leading to Civil Unrest in the Wake of Police Lethal Use of Force Incidents: A Tale of Two Cities Copyright © 2019 by George Richard Austin, Jr. ii ABSTRACT Factors Leading to Civil Unrest in the Wake of Police Lethal Use of Force Incidents: A Tale of Two Cities by George Richard Austin, Jr. Since August 9, 2014, the day Officer Darren Wilson shot and killed Michael Brown in the small city of Ferguson, Missouri, large-scale protests after police-involved lethal use of force incidents have become much more prevalent. While there is much academic and public debate on why civil unrest occurs after these unfortunate incidents, there is very little scholarly literature that explores the structure of civil unrest events or literature that attempts to explain why and how peaceful protests turn violent. This dissertation, through exploratory content analysis of extensive after-action reports, provides insight into two instances of civil unrest in the wake of officer-involved lethal use of force incidents: the Minneapolis, Minnesota, civil unrest in the aftermath of the November 15, 2015 shooting of Jamar Clark and the Charlotte, North Carolina, civil unrest in the wake of the September 16, 2016, shooting of Keith Lamont Scott. The study examines the phenomenon of civil unrest from the theoretical frameworks of representative bureaucracy and rational crime theory and utilizes a case study comparison and content analysis research design. -

Whose Who? the Case for a Kantian Right of Publicity
HAEMMERLI TO PRINTER 01/12/00 11:21 AM Duke Law Journal VOLUME 49 NOVEMBER 1999 NUMBER 2 WHOSE WHO? THE CASE FOR A KANTIAN RIGHT OF PUBLICITY ALICE HAEMMERLI† ABSTRACT Rapidly developing technological opportunities for unauthorized uses of identity—from “virtual kidnapping” to digitalcasting—coin- cide with growing demand for a preemptive federal right of publicity that can replace the existing welter of inconsistent state laws. Progress is impeded, however, by intractable doctrinal confusion and academic hostility to the right as allegedly inimical to society’s cultural need to manipulate celebrity images. Because the right of publicity is tradi- tionally based on Lockean labor theory and analogized to intellectual property in created works, it is vulnerable to such attacks; to date, no serious attempt has been made to elaborate an alternative philosophi- cal justification that can withstand them. In this Article, Dean Haemmerli uses Kantian philosophy to justify an autonomy-based right of publicity. In doing so, she challenges both the traditional approach to the right of publicity and its postmodernist critiques. First, the Article’s proposed reconception of the right of publicity rejects the existing doctrinal bifurcation of publicity and pri- vacy rights and explicitly embraces both the economic and moral fac- ets of the individual’s need to control the use of his identity.

These rights are enshrined in our Constitution. Ideas and movements that changed the course of our history came to the forefront of the American consciousness through assembly and protest. Law enforcement too often has been on the wrong side of history, attempting to suppress the right of the people to assemble. This freedom cannot be suppressed and it must be protected at all costs. Minnesota is no exception. Historically, law enforcement in Minneapolis specifically, and Minnesota more generally, have attempted to suppress the right of its citizens to assemble peacefully. Recently, they have been and are actively suppressing this right by exercising CASE 0:20-cv-01645 Document 1 Filed 07/28/20 Page 2 of 32 unnecessary and excessive force against protesters who gathered to express their outrage at the murder of George Floyd at the hands of the Minneapolis Police Department. -
