Peter Murphy's Existential State. A Long Interview with the ex-Bauhaus Singer and Solo Artist Even if the name Peter Murphy isn't familiar, you're certain to have heard his voice booming through the echoes of his old band Bauhaus's statement of purpose, "Bela Lugosi's Dead." You may also know "Cuts You Up," the hit from his fantastic 1990 solo album, Deep. The former is guaranteed a certain immort
The real Trump Doctrine: Tweet loudly and carry a big golf stick
大学があり授業がある限りはだれかしら雇わないといけないわけで、教えながら哲学の研究をするというポジション自体は残っていくとは思います。ただ、漠然と自分の好きな研究だけしていれば評価されるというわけでもありませんし、どういう人がどういうところに採用されたかみたいなことを見て、早いうちから研究者としての生存戦略を考えるみたいなことは必要になると思います。「そういう小賢しいのがいやだから研究者を目指したのに」という人にとっては大変生きにくい時代になっていると思います。 哲学業界としては優秀な方たちにあとを継いでいただかないと先細りになっていくので、能力のある方には哲学の研究者を目指してほしい反面、とても「どんどんおいでください」と勧誘できる状況でないのも事実で、苦しいところです。
Our emotions often motivate us to do what is right, but they are equally likely to motivate us to do what is wrong. In making ethical decisions, it is our ability to reason – not our ability to feel the pain of others – that should play a crucial role. PRINCETON – Soon after Barack Obama was elected President of the United States, he told a young girl: “We don’t have enough empathy in our world to
Whaling should stop because it brings needless suffering to social, intelligent animals capable of enjoying their own lives. But Western anti-whaling countries will have little defense against charges of cultural bias until they address the needless animal suffering in their own backyards. Thirty years ago, Australian vessels, with the government’s blessing, killed sperm whales off the West Austra
Attempts to ban the burkini in France – not to mention discussion of similar bans in Germany – suggest that demands for cultural assimilation are back in style. The question is to what extent a country that accepts immigrants can – or should – require that they relinquish their traditional practices. MELBOURNE – My parents came to Australia as refugees, fleeing Nazi persecution after Hitler annexe
Amnesty International's appeal in May for governments to decriminalize sex work was met with a storm of protest. But most of the opposition reflects moralistic prejudices, whether based on religion or an idealistic form of feminism, not the best interests of sex workers or the public. PRINCETON – Sex work is, as the saying goes, the world’s oldest profession – except that the saying uses “prostitu
I’ve mentioned this book in another blog about demi-vegetarianism that relates to other books and issues if you want to check it out. Out of all the books that deals with food, this is the must have book to read! I have been trying to find some chapters or segments that I can use to teach to my class about animal rights, food politics, and the environmental concerns dealing with food. I was exp
In April, Germany’s parliament placed limits on the use of genetic diagnosis by insurers and employers. But many of the new law's provisions will be unenforceable in the absence of an international agreement, and some of them, by banning outright embryonic and pre-natal screening for genetic diseases, are ethically absurd. MELBOURNE – In April, Germany’s parliament placed limits on the use of gene
