    Padova Philosophy Summer School Philosophical Controversies about Objectivity in Classical German Philosophy and Contemporary Analytic Philosophy Padova, 12-23 September 2016 What is objectivity? And what is objective? How do we manage to disagree with each other if something is objectively there? What’s more, how can we understand our mutual disagreement? What happens when we disagree? How can we deal with disagreement? The summer school "Philosophical Controversies about Objectivity" intends to offer an in- depth understanding of some important philosophical disputes, both of the past and present, relating to objectivity as well as the necessary analytical tools for a critical investigation of these debates.

  • 55 Portuguese Diaspora Narratives
    ISSN2039Ͳ9340MediterraneanJournalofSocialSciencesVol.3(10)July2012 Portuguese Diaspora Narratives Padrão, Maria Helena (PHd) E-mail: [email protected] Vieira, Célia (PHd) Rio Novo, Isabel (PHd) Oliveira, Clementina (Master) Padrão, Reinaldo (PHd) ISMAI (Instituto Superior da Maia), Portugal. CELCC-CEL (Centro de Estudos de Língua, Comunicação e Cultura (ISMAI) – Centro e Estudos em Letras (UTAD), Department of Communication and Information Sciences) Abstract: This study seeks to understand the consequences of this phenomenon (Diaspora) in the relocation of human resources from other countries to Portugal and to evaluate this impact. With decolonization and later integration into the European Union, some changes occurred in social and cultural identity. Portugal has become a host country. This study examines the narratives of the portuguese settlers of Angola and the fiction narratives about this subject. We created a database with information about individual characteristics of the portuguese settlers of Angola (gender, age, education level, qualification level, occupation, and emotions). We opted for the use of qualitative method for agreeing Stiles (1993, in Gill, 2000), who argues that the purpose of qualitative methods for the condensation of human experience into words isn’t the reduction in its symbolic numbers. In analyzing the content of these interviews we opted for the analysis of narrative research method that has been increasingly used, namely to study specific periods (Farrell, Rosenberg & Rosenberg, 1993, in Zilber et al, 1998), such as migrations. This project aims to re-interpret and re-think the effects of portuguese diaspora, during and after colonialism period by giving voice to those who were categorized as returned people. Moreover, this study also aims to take into account the visions of portuguese writers, in order to consider their perceptions Keywords: diaspora, narratives, fiction, luso-topicalism, homeland.

Building on sustainability performance in universities, this study aimed to: Identify the procedures deployed by universities to measure sustainability; detect the strengths and weaknesses of the Spanish university system (SUS) sustainability practice; analyse the SUS contributions to sustainability-related Research, Development and Innovation (R&D+I); and assess the efficacy of such practices and procedures as reported in the literature. The indicators of scientific activity were defined by applying scientometric techniques to analyse the journal (Web of Science) and European project (CORDIS) databases, along with reports issued by national institutions. The findings showed that measuring sustainability in the SUS is a very recent endeavour and that one of the strengths is the university community’s engagement with the ideal.

  • Manresa and Saint Ignatius of Loyola
    JOAN SEGARRA PIJUAN was born in Tárrega, Spain on June 29, 1926. He joined the Society of Jesus in 1942. Seventeen years later he completed his religious and cultural education. On July 29, 1956 – in the Year of Saint Ignatius – he was ordained at the cathedral in Manresa. He has spent much of his life in Veruela, Bar- celona, Sant Cugat del Vallès, Palma (Majorca), Raimat, Rome and Man- resa and has also lived in a number of countries in Central and South Ameri- ca, Africa and Europe. He has always been interested in spi- ritual theology and the study of Saint Ignatius of Loyola. SAINT IGNA- TIUS AND MANRESA describes the Saint’s sojourn here in a simple, rea- dable style. The footnotes and exten- sive bibliography will be of particular interest to scholars wishing the study the life of St. Ignatius in greater de- tail. This book deals only with the months Saint Ignatius spent in Man- resa, which may have been the most interesting part of his life: the months of his pilgrimage and his mystical en- lightenments. Manresa is at the heart of the Pilgrim’s stay in Catalonia because “between Ignatius and Man- resa there is a bond that nothing can break” (Torras y Bages). A copy of this book is in the Library at Stella Maris Generalate North Foreland, Broadstairs, Kent, England CT10 3NR and is reproduced on line with the permission of the author.
