  • The PACT of Patient Engagement: Unraveling the Meaning Of
    The PACT of Patient Engagement: Unraveling the Meaning of Engagement with Hybrid Concept Analysis Tracy Higgins Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy under the Executive Committee of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2016 © 2016 Tracy Higgins All rights reserved ABSTRACT The PACT of Patient Engagement: Unraveling the Meaning of Engagement with Hybrid Concept Analysis Tracy Higgins Patient engagement has become a widely used term, but remains a poorly understood concept in healthcare. Citations for the term during the past two decades have increased markedly throughout the healthcare-related disciplines without a common definition. Patient engagement has been credited for contributing to improved outcomes and experiences of care. Means of identifying and evaluating practices that facilitate patient engagement in care have become an ethical imperative for patient-centered care. This process begins with a definition of the concept. Concept analysis is a means of establishing a common definition of a concept through identification of its attributes, antecedents and consequences within the context of its use. Concept analysis is a methodology that has been used in social science and nursing as a means to resolve conceptual barriers to theory development in an evolving field. The methodological theory was based in the analytic philosophical tradition and sustained during the 20th century by the strength of philosophical positivism in the health sciences. This concept analysis is guided procedurally by Rogers’ evolutionary approach that incorporates postmodern philosophical principles and well-defined techniques. This dissertation is informed by the expanded and updated perspective of the neo-modern era in nursing research, which advances the concept analysis methodology further.

Merchant of Venice (1.3,97-102) ii PREFACE To Browning*s readers it is perhaps a commonplace that the poet makes extraordinarily frequent use of Scriptural allusion, even when considered in the context of his own Bible-quoting age. But few modern readers understand how Browning used these allusions for rhetorical effect; this lack has "been partially remedied by a few sketchy critical studies, presided over by Mrs, Minnie Machen*s The Bible in Browning» which shows commendable knowledge of the Bible, but little of the poet*s use thereof. It was my desire to elucidate some of the obscurer The Ring and the Book pas­ sages containing Biblical allusions that led me to the pre­ sent subject; but as I began to collect examples, I became aware that Browning*s manipulation of Scripture raised a larger question, that of the poet*s attitudes toward lan­ guage itself— its protean, elusive, impermanent and decep­ tive character.

  • Tonalities of Literature in Transition: the World Of
    1 INTRODUCTION: Literature and “Interregnum”: Globalization, War and the Crisis of Sovereignty in Latin America Literature and “Interregnum” looks at late 20th- and early 21st-century literary responses to neoliberal-administered globalization and its impact on the conceptual vocabularies of political and aesthetic modernity in Latin America’s Southern Cone and Mexico. The book endeavors to establish dialogues between literature and a range of theoretical perspectives, including Continental philosophy (Aristotle, Leibnitz, Kant, Hegel, Nietzsche, Heidegger, Derrida, Nancy, Agamben, Schürmann, Thayer), political thought (Hobbes, Marx, Benjamin, Schmitt, Gramsci, Jameson, Laclau, Rancière, Virno, Galli), psychoanalysis (Freud, Lacan), and sociology of globalization (Harvey, Sassen). Through juxtaposition of the methods and sensibilities proper to these traditions of inquiry I explore two related hypotheses. The first is that the violent impact of neoliberal-administered globalization in Latin America that begins in the 1980s culminates, at the end of the millennium, in the suspension or exhaustion of certain principles of political and aesthetic modernity, foremost among which are the regulatory state, political sovereignty (that of the national state or the People), and the modern conceptualization of the subject as autonomous, self-conscious origin that assigns itself its own laws. I describe this crisis of the conceptual vocabulary of modernity as an interregnum in which, in the words of the Italian political philosopher Antonio Gramsci, “the old [order] is dying and the new cannot be born.” To be perfectly clear, I do not argue that sovereignty and its political manifestations (the state, the nation, the national popular) have disappeared from our contemporary topography. However, what were once the foundations or first principles of modern social organization have more recently been subjugated to new economic and 2 technological rationales and forces that appear to be incapable of serving as new organizing principles.
