Volume 22, No. 3 Fall 2011 from Our Members Letter from the Editor Welcome to the fall 2011 edition of the ISEE Newsletter. As the length of the newsletter attests, the second half of this year has seen an intense amount of activity. The number of scholars working in environmental ethics and philosophy continues to climb, research is strong, and the job market is steadily improving. If there is a theme to the current issue, it is the state of the profession. On pp. 2-3 you will find an overview of the profession with references to more detailed information in subsequent sections, including an update on graduate programs and certificates, a listing of current job openings, and an extensive end-of-the-year bibliography. Newsletter For this edition we are fortunate to have two contributions Volume 22, No. 3 Fall 2011 from our members.

See you on the other side of 2011. —William Grove-Fanning FALL 2011 1 The State of the Profession Readers wishing for some background on the state of the profession of environmental philosophy should consult the special issue of Ethics & the Environment 12, no. 2 (Autumn 2007), which contains 15 commentaries on the future of environmental philosophy. In a nutshell, the profession is healthy, it is evolving rapidly to meet new challenges, and it is incorporating new voices and approaches. Despite the continued deterioration of the tenure system, the increasing popularity of and new directions in environmental philosophy provide some assurance that specialists will be well-positioned to land tenure-track jobs across academia. This is especially the case for those focused on emerging issues and willing to work interdisciplinarily in environmental studies programs. —Graduate Programs. ISEE and the Center for Environmental Philosophy have periodically tracked graduate programs and graduate certificates in environmental philosophy. Where previously it made sense to list classes in environmental ethics and departments having a single specialist, it is no longer feasible to do so given the relative abundance of introductory classes and the increased number of philosophers with competence in the field. Accordingly, for the current update ISEE has adopted new standards of inclusion: (1) a college/school/program/major/etc. must list in writing environmental philosophy as one of its curricular components; (2) the parent institution must have more than one philosopher actively working in the field. Fourteen programs satisfy the new criteria—2 offer graduate certificates, 9 offer an MA or MS, and 7 offer a Ph.D. A brief description of each program along with their affiliated specialists and web address can be found on pp. 14-17. If your program satisfies the criteria and you would like to have it listed in an upcoming newsletter and on the ISEE website, please contact ISEE at [email protected]. —Jobs. Jobs for Philosophers (JFP), a publication of the American Philosophical Association (APA), is the primary venue for advertising jobs in philosophy in the United States and Canada. While the APA publishes four issues of the JFP per year, the fall edition is the most important as interviews for positions are conducted in December at the meeting of the East Coast Division. Although the number of advertised positions for 2011 is nowhere near pre-2008 levels, the number of job openings is up 33% over last year, from 146 (fall 2010) to 194 (fall 2011). The situation is even better for those working in environmental ethics and philosophy. Consistent with the larger trend, there are 43% more jobs in environmental ethics and philosophy this year (10 advertised positions) than last year (7 advertised positions). More significantly, there has been a considerable uptick of philosophy-friendly jobs in environmental studies programs or departments, a trend that is sure to continue as schools further incorporate the humanities in their programs and degrees. ISEE, for instance, has posted 20 environmental studies jobs, at all ranks, since August 2011. All told, ISEE has posted 36 job openings this fall for which a specialist in environmental ethics and philosophy will be qualified. —Research. As evidenced by the size of the latest bibliography (pp. 53-144), research in environmental philosophy continues at a brisk pace. In addition to the nine journals that ISEE catalogs, more than 25 journal neighbors (http://iseethics.org/journals-of-interest/) regularly 2 ISEE NEWSLETTER publish work of philosophical interest. Since last fall‘s newsletter, there are 61 new books, 34 articles in non-philosophy journals, and 4 special issues of environmental philosophy in non- environmental philosophy journals. Seventy-four new chapters or books of interest were also published. Climate change remains the hottest research area, with 8 new books, 5 anthologies, 16 articles, and 2 special journal issues. Ecotheology follows closely behind with 15 new books, 7 anthologies, and 7 articles in non-philosophy journals. (Offerings in ecotheology are listed in the sections ―Articles in Non-Environmental Philosophy Journals‖ and ―Other Books and Chapters,‖ pp. 99-144.) Another area garnering increased attention is animal studies, the interdisciplinary study of the relationship between humans and other animals. There are 7 new books and 3 anthologies including the just-published, 984 page Oxford Handbook of Animal Ethics. Readers wishing to become familiar with this area of investigation are encouraged to visit the Minding Animals International website as well as Michigan State University‘s animal studies bibliography. Last of all, 2011 saw the release of a spate of introductory textbooks, 7 in all. Two thousand twelve looks to continue this trend with 2 textbooks scheduled for publication the first part of the year and more undoubtedly on the way. —Trends. It is increasingly difficult to conceive of environmental ethics and philosophy as a unified field given that its boundaries are more fluid and its shape more amorphous than ever. This is primarily due to two factors—a greater variety of theoretical commitments and an increasing number of environmental problems. Regarding the former, while the field was created by philosophers trained in classical Western and analytic philosophy in the United States and Australasia in the 1970s, by the mid-to-late 1980s continental environmental philosophy emerged as a second major strand. Where, loosely speaking, classically trained analytic philosophers are amenable to the truth of scientific claims and focus on conceptual clarification, continental philosophers are more wary of scientific abstraction and claims of context-independence. Continental philosophy, moreover, is an umbrella term that encompasses any number of approaches ranging from phenomenology and existentialism to hermeneutics and deconstruction. The last few years has seen a rapid increase in deconstruction and anti-foundationalist approaches to environmental philosophy, resulting in new zones of philosophical enquiry. Increasingly, philosophically interesting environmental material is being conducted by scholars with backgrounds in critical theory, queer studies, postcolonialism, American pragmatism, and so forth. The shape and future direction(s) of environmental philosophy is also determined by problems that environmental philosophers are trying to eliminate. In addition to those addressed by the founders of the field (animal rights, biodiversity loss, land degradation, nuclear energy, pollution and health, population growth, etc.), emerging issues (environmental justice, energy sustainability, climate change, geoengineering, nanotechnology, synthetic biology, food and water issues, etc.) continue to energize the field.

  • Prix Fixe and A` La Carte: Avoiding False Multilateral Choices
    Stewart Patrick Prix Fixe and a` la Carte: Avoiding False Multilateral Choices Tremendous forces are eroding the institutional foundations of world politics. Economic power is moving to developing countries (particularly in Asia), transnational security threats from nuclear proliferation to climate change are emerging, and influential malevolent as well as benign non-state actors compete with sovereign states for global influence. Despite these tectonic changes, the superstructure of global cooperation has barely moved. The world thus makes do with creaky institutions that reflect a world that no longer existsÑwith growing risks to global stability and prosperity.1 Recently, however, the ground has begun to shift with Barack Obama’s election as president of the United States. During the campaign, Obama had offered U.S. voters a fresh vision of leadership in the twenty-first century, pledging ‘‘to rebuild the alliances, partnerships and institutions necessary to confront common threats and enhance common security.’’2 The candidate’s first foreign policy address lionized the ‘‘generation of leaders’’ such as Harry Truman and George Marshall, who ‘‘built a system of international institutions that carried us through the Cold War.’’ He also acknowledged that ‘‘today it’s become fashionable to disparage the United Nations, the World Bank, and other international organizations,’’ but the giants of the 1940s ‘‘knew that instead of constraining our power, these institutions magnified it.’’ Today, however, ‘‘reform of these bodies is urgently needed if they are to keep pace with the fast-moving threats we face.’’3 Stewart Patrick is a senior fellow and the director of the International Institutions and Global Governance Program at the Council on Foreign Relations.

    Annual Report 2017 ACG 150 | Advancing the Legacy, Growing Greece A plan to leverage education & re-invigorate the economy Board Chair’s Message The excitement and energy at The American College of Greece continues to be evident in the many accomplishments of our faculty, staff and students. Our graduates also continue to make contributions throughout Greece and the world. It is clear that the education they have received at the College is serving them well. As the new Chair of the Board, I’m delighted to enter my ninth year of service to the College as a trustee. I continue to be impressed by the talent and commitment of the faculty and staff. Dr. Horner has certainly assembled a truly talented team of academic leaders. We will miss the wise counsel of our immediate past chair, Phil Korologos, and remain grateful for the decades of service from the Korologos family. In honor of this service, Phil was awarded an Honorary Doctorate of Law at the Deree Commencement in June. This past spring, we also recognized the service of Nikos Ebeoglou, who completed his term with the ACG Board and played a vital role in the transition of Alba. In addition, we welcomed to the Board Drake Behrakis, who will begin his first three-year term and brings great enthusiasm to advancing Hellenism in America. Finally, we expressed both gratitude and sadness at the departure of our colleague, Olga Julius, who served Pierce for over 40 years, including the last 14 years as its Principal. Perhaps there is no better example of the school motto, “Non Ministari, Sed Ministrare.” Many thanks to our alumni and friends who also continue give generously to the College.

  • Transitions in Crisis by William J
    TRANSITIONS IN CRISIS BY WILLIAM J. ANTHOLIS AND DAVID MARCHICK TRANSITIONS IN CRISIS BY WILLIAM J. ANTHOLIS AND DAVID MARCHICK1 Presidential transitions are intricate, pivotal moments in a democracy. All the more so when the nation is in crisis. A “normal” transition is challenging enough, marked by the power of a democratic mandate and the challenge of starting afresh. The public has just invested its power and trust in its leader, whether that’s a new president or a re-elected incumbent. For a newly elected president, a new White House staff and cabinet are starting their work together – both as a team and as leaders of more than 2 million federal workers. Dramatic change is also commonplace in second terms, where large numbers of senior officials depart and new ones arrive, and the re-elected president can choose to set a new course. Come January 20, fresh starts and fresh stumbles are possible. During crises, the consequences of failure are even more stark.2 While most newly elected presidents enjoy conditions that allow a “honeymoon period,” certain presidents have faced at least two kinds of crises: political and economic. Each introduce unique problems. In political crises, the legitimacy of the newly elected president may be called into question. As a result, the president-elect may be forced directly into partisan fights, unable to enjoy the political benefits of the honeymoon. During economic crises, the months between Election Day and Inauguration Day introduce dangerous uncertainty into economic markets, threatening the livelihoods of millions of Americans. Fragile markets can collapse with lightning speed.
