Capili Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, Belgium ABSTRACT: This paper provides an account of Levinas’s contribution to the discourse on multiculturalism. It argues that the recognition of what he calls as the ethical appeal of the other’s face is the necessary starting point in discussions relating to the issue of cultural pluralism. Demands for the recognition of the dignity of each individual can no longer rely on a credible notion of subjectivity and freedom. An individual’s worth is not to be grounded in the idea of autonomy but instead in the ethical signification revealed in the face. However, the Levinasian understanding of the other has been criticized as an abstraction. The paper defends Levinas’s insight by arguing that there is a distinction between the other and the way she manifests herself and that there are different and concrete ways through which Levinas speaks of the other and the self. KEYWORDS: Levinas, multiculturalism, recognition, face, difference, identity Introduction lbert Dondeyne (1963, 166) remarks that our contemporary world is characterized by a growing sense of historicity and solidarity Aprimarily because “the world is becoming one” and that humankind is now faced “with the greatest task ever—the task of building an economic and social world in which there is room for all.” Dondeyne highlights the inescapable character of our time and the formidable challenge that we face. While it is true that the world is coming together as more lines of communication and transaction become available—thanks to modern TAMBARA 30, NO.1 (2013): 1-16 — 1 — © 2013 Ateneo de Davao University Tambara 30 (June 2013) technologies —we also find ourselves in societies that are increasingly characterized by difference and diversity. The existence of differences is not only a fact but a potential source of misunderstandings and conflicts. At the root and at stake in these conditions are those particularities that make us who we are, that is, our identities (Kymlicka 1995, 1-5). Recent decades have seen a great deal of discussions about creating societies in which people of diverse cultural backgrounds, traditions, religious commitments, languages, and so on, can peacefully coexist.

As can be expected, the federative organisation of such states as Germany, Switzerland, the USA, India and Russia will be reflected in their police organisation, though the extremely decentralised approach of Switzerland with hardly any central man- agement structures can hardly serve as a paradigm of ‘the’ federal police organisation.

    From Ideas to Action: a Review of Implementing HELP Principles in River Basins with Limited Resources and Capacity

    From ideas to action: A review of implementing HELP principles in river basins with limited resources and capacity# Declan Hearne1* , Ruth Gamboa2 and Verna Marie Monsanto2 1 HELP Davao, 248 Arayat St., Central Park Phase I, Bangkal, Davao City, Philippines 2 The University of Philippines, Davao, Mindanao, Philippines Abstract Davao City is overlapped by 8 watersheds all flowing into the Davao Gulf. These watersheds exemplify a range of cultural, environmental and economic stresses from the continual conversion of natural habitat for agricultural, urban, and industrial uses. These changes and their consequent pressures have not gone unnoticed and have surfaced through various channels into the political and public arenas. However, despite the awareness and actions from various sectoral initiatives, there is continual deterioration of trends across the ecosystems. Hydrology for Environment, Life and Policy (HELP) is a global initiative which encourages policy makers, water man- agers, scientists, and end-users to work together within a field-oriented context to closely integrate science into government policies and management strategies. Through Davao City’s participation in the HELP Network, the management of water- sheds and water has improved not through the acquisition of additional external funds but by the increase in opportunity for dialogue between ‘water-related’ communities, which resulted to enhanced stakeholder understanding of issues and increased technical capacity of all involved. This paper demonstrates how the HELP principles can be applied in basins with limited resources and how these can posi- tively influence the attitudes and behaviour of stakeholders. It highlights how HELP can act as a catalyst to motivate learning, engage competing sectors, and build collaboration to create science-backed frameworks for good water governance.
