GAYA INTERAKSI & INTEGRASI SOSIAL ANAK MUDA RANTAU: Kasus Mahasiswa Kost Di Air Tawar Barat, Kota Padang

Overseas (shoreline) young man (students) interaction style in Air Tawar Barat (ATB) has its own peculiarities. Discussion of interaction refers to patterns of social integration in social system. Patterns of social integration that is most ideal Students Type A, Type B or Type C they are active in religious institutions (AA) and social institutions (AS) as well and have a concern (care) for the social environment in the form of type explorer (PP). However, in this study, the ideal reality of the social integration of students in the social system, namely Student Type A, Type B, and Type C one of them is active in religious institutions (AA) or social (AS) and has concern for the Moderate mode (PM). Stretchable student of religion and social institutions and social norms prevailing in society is an action trigger conflict between students and the community. Involving students in religious activities and sociality, student administrative records, as well as the dissemination of social norms is a form of community efforts to integrate students in the social system and the students respond and participate to it. Based on the results it can be stated that any type of residence status, marital status, student activity form (activists and non-activist) in the social system and the student meets the requirements of social norms and administrative requirements are morality behavior to integration of students in the social system into.

Shining Ideal and Uncertain Reality: Commentaries on the “Golden Rule” in Confucianism and Other Traditions

This paper considers a number of problematic issues underlying the seemingly unassailable truth of moral philosophy expressed in the “Golden Rule” in a variety of cultural spheres. These issues include the place of this teaching within its given religious or philosophical context, the defense of this principle as an inviolable tenet of revealed dogma or as a piece of utilitarian advice for the regulation of social life, the manner in which the precise rhetorical structure of a given formulation reflects the specific intellectual underpinnings of its cultural milieu, claims of universal validity as a statement of moral truth for all men and all time or as a culture-specific value understood to apply exclusively within a particular religious community, and modes of commentarial expansion by scriptural exegetes and textual scholiasts seeking to ground this teaching within the logic of philosophical or theological discourse. After outlining several points of uncertainty that emerge in the context of transferring the ideal of human empathy to the messy reality of concrete existence, we then turn to a number of attempts by leading commentators in the Confucian, rabbinic, and other scholastic traditions to grapple with these contradictions and to reconcile them within the framework of their respective value systems.

Ideal and Flawed Reality of U.S. Caucus System: Implications for Korea

Ideal and Flawed Reality of U.S. Caucus System: Implications for Korea

The Study of Hyper-Reality in Editorial Fashion Photographs - Focused on Vogue Magazine since 2000 -

The advent of various arts and remarkable development of mass media since 1980s accelerate fashion photographs' advancement. The expression of fashion through photographs can represent characteristics of ages, societies, cultures, traits of designers and techniques of photographers. In addition, that is the tool which contains economical role as a product and artistic role as photos. Therefore, this study examines hyprt-reality images in editorial fashion photographs. Hyper-reality means the reproduction which represents the reality of life more actually. Hyper-reality through photographs elevates reality of virtual things and creates the confused situation which haunts the boundary between reality and reproduction. This study classifies the hyper-reality in editorial fashion photographs into three groups by their external traits, ideal reality, collapse of reality, and restoration of reality. First, ideal reality is represented as harmony among fashion, characters, and space, causality of fashion with time and circumstances, positive will, and melting with nature. Second, collapse of reality is expressed as in harmony between fashion and situation, violence, fetishism and symbol of death. Third, restoration of reality is shown as recurrence to nature and images of utopia to express dignity of life.

The Nurse Job Satisfaction - Comparison between Ideal Job and Organizational Reality: A Preliminary Study

The purpose of this article is to present preliminary findings of a research on job satisfaction in relation to a professional profile (the nurse), analyzing aspects of work that can be identified as antecedents according to their correlation with greater satisfaction as a whole. This research has correlated the ideal aspects of working with these issues effectively, and subsequently correlated to the outcome of this comparison (mismatch) with the overall job satisfaction. The survey showed frustration in the expectations of workers that have an impact on satisfaction, particularly as regards their ability to perform work consistent with their skills possessed, being informed of what happens in the company and the opportunity to have an estimated head.

O virtual de baixa resolução: entre a visibilidade e a ilusão

Dentre as muitas reações que a arquitetura pode ter à influência da Sociedade da Informação, algumas são mais perceptíveis ao mesmo tempo em que demonstram uma aceitação bastante positiva desta influência. Outras, por sua vez, assimilam o digital de maneira mais sutil e trazem consigo uma crítica à dominação puramente tecnológica da era informática. Estas últimas contêm o virtual, mas em lugar de buscar a realidade ideal que proporciona o digital, elas voltam-se ao culto de uma Baixa Resolução - sobre elas discorremos neste artigo.

The Nature of Historia in Leon Battista Alberti's De Pictura

In this article I inquire into Alberti's claim that his treatise, De Pictura (1435), offers a totally new treatment of painting. I argue that the rationale behind Alberti's self-promoting claim derives from his perception of historia, and from his conceptualization of the relationship between this pictorial genre and nature. The historia is not a depiction of the natural, the contingent and the temporal: The nature that Alberti uses for his historia is an ideal nature that cannot, in fact, be observed in nature. Alberti's historia deconstructs natural reality in an attempt to reconstruct the unobservable, fixed principles which lie behind the surface of the visible world. I would also argue, however, that Alberti's historia is neither a mere representation of ideal truths. Rather, it is the means to construct a fixed and ideal social reality. Alberti's historia is not meant to convey a meaning, but rather to create a reality; it is not a representation of an action, but the execution and performance of one. Alberti promotes the use of an artificial system of signs, linear perspective, in order to promote controlled social interactions that in their turn will create an ideal social artifact: a decorous community.

Moral values and career: Factors shaping the image of healthy work for female dentists

Objective. Female unpromoted general practice dentists (GPDs) constitute about one-quarter of all dentists in Sweden. These female dentists suffer from many problems relating to their psychosocial working conditions. There are wide discrepancies between their perception of the ideal job situation and reality. Previously, three factors were found to constitute the ideal job situation. The aim of this study was to analyze patterns in two of these factors, i.e. the moral and the career factors, for understanding how ideal circumstances are conceived, i.e. how “good work” for the dentists could be obtained. Material and Methods. In the year 2000, all female unpromoted GPDs (183 persons) within the Public Dental Health Service (PDHS) in a region in Sweden received a questionnaire; response rate 94%. Four multiple regression models were constructed for two factors of good work and for the differences between the ideal job situation and reality concerning these factors. Results. In all models, the explained variance was high. Those dentists who were committed to moral issues perceived large differences between the ideal and reality concerning moral values. Dentists committed to career issues experienced large differences between the ideal and reality concerning career development. Those dentists – about 60% – who would not want to be a dentist if they were to choose today, perceived large discrepancies concerning moral and career issues. Conclusions. The PDHS organization has failed to convince or engage those whom it ought to engage, that is those with the highest level of commitment. Dentists’ emphasis on moral values confirms the character of dentistry as primarily a human service work.

Mental health in Australia: The ideal versus financial reality and the role of the mental health nurse

The current mental health policy of Australia is based on an assumption that the standard of care available to people experiencing a mental illness should be of comparable standard to those experiencing a physical illness. However, despite this stated aim, a review of government expenditure clearly indicates that the current proportion of health expenditure afforded to mental health is not comparable to the prevalence of mental illness or the related burden of disease. This paper presents an overview of the prevalence and burden of disease imposed by mental illness.These figures are then discussed in light of government spending on mental health. On the basis of the information presented, it is concluded that a substantially higher proportion of health expenditure needs to be devoted to mental health, if the goals of government policy are to be realised. As the largest professional group of the mental health workforce, nurses need to seek out opportunities to influence policy towards a more favourable treatment of mental health issues.

Victorian caricature and classicism: Picturing the London water crisis

This study assesses Victorian artistic response to the crisis of the poor quality of Victorian London's water supply—a situation exacerbated by comparison of London to the ancient capitals, most notably Rome, and water's classical associations with beauty, purity, and bounty. Two major and distinct responses emerge: Victorian caricature and Victorian classicism. Artists from both camps summoned the classical tradition to allude to the irony of classical ideal versus contemporary reality. In low Victorian art the truth lay in the caricature of the classical image. In high Victorian art the truth lay in the reality that the classical image could only serve to index. To be sure, the classical tradition furnished ample material through which the artist might allow a myth, for example, to allude subtly to a social problem, and through idealization, to suggest a powerful contrast between myth and reality. Thus the artist could “strike” with the requisite decorum and without appearing resistant to the artistic and socio-political establishment.

Policing in a Changing Constitutional Order. By Neil Walker. [London: Sweet & Maxwell. 2000. xxiii, 297 (Bibliography) 25 and (Index) 24 pp. Paperback. £34.95 net. ISBN 0–421–63370–0.

This book rests on what may well seem to most lawyers to be a self-evident truth: that “[a]ll policing systems are profoundly influenced by the constitutional order in which they are situated” (p. 1). But the author states that for many, particularly sociologists, this would be a debatable or false proposition. These would consider either that “occupational culture [was] the primary determinant of police behaviour” or would at any rate stress the discrepancy between the “legal ideal and profane reality” (p. 1, footnote 1). These latter propositions appear to be as self-evident as the first one: we live in a fallen world and so there will always be a gap between “legal ideal and profane reality” and who can doubt that police culture influences police behaviour.

Rule of Law: Lofty Ideal or Harsh Reality?

The Palermo Conference represents an important paradigm of civic responsibility that holds important global lessons for the kind of solidarity and cooperation necessary to transform the harsh reality of private and even public tyranny into the higher ideals of civic decency. It is the predicate that defends the rule of law precept as a stabilising and transformative component of a world order that honours and respects the dignity of all the people. The theme of the symposium where this paper was first presented was, of course, the rule of law in the global village. More specifically, the title here is ‘The Rule of Law: Lofty Ideal or Harsh Reality?’ How then does the UN convention against Transnational Organized Crime, in general, impact on the major themes just specified? What does the convention have to do with the rule of law and the earth‐space community, visualised as a global village?

Opinion paper: access as a substitute for holdings: false ideal or costly reality

Argues that the much‐advocated switch from holdings to access has serious snags where current material is concerned. Libraries should discard most of their stock of older material and provide access to more current material. This requires the existence of a centralized collection of older material available to users.

Crafting Strategy

1. The difference in planning and crafting strategy is the level of involvement in the process. It is the crafting of strategy that requires the involvement of state and local constituencies. 2. Creating vision enables constituencies to clarify and realize what they really want, independently of what presently seems possible at the state or local level. 3. By developing an ideal reality or vision first, a bridge can be built between the current and desired organization without loss of purpose. The purpose of the organization is defined by AAOHN's Mission Statement. 4. The bridge is built by using a decision making process similar to the nursing process.

The meaning of pure mathematics

There are two classical answers to the question what is the meaning of pure mathematics: (1) Formalism. Pure mathematics is a symbolic construction; it becomes meaningful only when it is applied to describe physical reality. (2) Platonism. Pure mathematics describes an ideal reality which exists independently of man. I cannot accept either of those answers. Formalism is unsatisfactory first because it ignores the structures imagined by mathematicians and underlying the symbols and second because many concepts of pure mathematics do not have any physical interpretation nor the slightest chance of getting one in the future (this is clear, e.g., about the cardinal 2!,, a paradoxical decompositions of the sphere, etc.). Platonism is unsatisfactory because it violates our instinctive drive to obey Ockham's principle of parsimony: entia non sunt multiplicanda praeter necessitatem. I propose a third answer which I call intentionalism. Intentionalism says that pure mathematics is a description of finite structures consisting of finitely many individually imagined objects. (The term intentionalism is chosen for its contrast with extensionalism which accepts actually infinite sets and leads naturally to Platonism. The difference between intentionalism and formalism is more subtle, see Remark 4.3 below.) The idea of intentionalism is not new but it is not generally accepted. I think that this is so because hitherto intentionalism had a difficulty with the interpretation of quantifiers. For example the axioms of arithmetic cannot be literally true about any collection of imagined individual integers since man can imagine only finitely many of them. The main result of this paper is a. solution of this problem. Quantifiers will be explained away as a formal trick which mathematicians can but do not have to use. I will try to describe how mathematicians think in reality and I believe that, when they do not mechanically perform formal manipulations, they think in the

Rabbinic Reflections on the Barren Wife

A study of rabbinic legal rulings concerning the barren wife reveals the subordinate place of women in rabbinic Judaism's systematic vision of an ideal reality. Yet at the same time, aggadic texts demonstrate that demands of necessity and compassion often prevailed over halachic prescription, illuminating the rift which not infrequently separated rabbinic theory and actual practice. Moreover, a review of aggadic reflections on barren women also yields suggestive insights into the dilemma of suffering, and the efficacy of prayer, as well as examples of the ways in which biblical models could become paradigms and symbols of empowerment in women's lives.

The Centrality of Mathematics in the History of Western Thought

context of mathematics from the hardware store with the rest of the tools and bring it back to the university. To do this, I will discuss some major developments in the history of ideas in which mathematics has played a central role. I do not mean that mathematics has by itself caused all these developments; what I do mean that mathematics, whether causing, suggesting, or reinforcing, has played a key role; it has been there, at center stage. We all know that mathematics has been the language of science for centuries. But what I wish to emphasize the crucial role of mathematics in shaping views of man and the world held not just by scientists, but by everyone educated in the western tradition. Given the vastness of that tradition, I will give many examples only briefly, and be able to treat only a few key illustrative examples at any length. Sources for the others may be found in the bibliography. (See also [26].) Since I am arguing for the centrality of mathematics, I will organize the paper around the key features of mathematics which have produced the effects I will discuss. These features are the certainty of mathematics and the applicability of mathematics to the world. 2. Certainty For over two thousand years, the certainty of mathematics, particularly of Euclidean geometry, has had to be addressed in some way by any theory of knowledge. Why was geometry certain? Was it because of the subject matter of geometry, or because of its method? And what were the implications of that certainty? Even before Euclid's monumental textbook, the philosopher Plato saw the certainty of Greek geometry-a subject which Plato called knowledge of that which always is [41, 527b] -as arising from the eternal, unchanging perfection of the objects of mathematics. By contrast, the objects of the physical world were always coming into being or passing away. The physical world changes, and thus only an approximation to the higher ideal reality. The philosopher, then, to have his soul drawn from the changing to the real, had to study mathematics. Greek geometry fed Plato's idealistic philosophy; he emphasized the study of Forms or Ideas transcending experience: the idea of justice, the ideal state, the idea of the Good. Plato's views were used by philosophers within the Jewish, Christian, and Islamic traditions to deal with how a

La influència de la "Crítica del judici" en l'estètica romàntica

Critical Consciousness is the intellectual point of departure of post-Kantian idealism in all its antagonistic ramifications. It has decisive influence upon the crystallization of the romantic theme -in aspects related to aesthetics, to the philosophy of Nature and to the theory of cognition as well. The Kantian “aesthetic idean”, that well-known representation of the imagination, inaccessible to determining thought, expressed but never completely exhausted by a work of art, is one of the key concepts of philosophical and literary romanticism. According to this conception of romanticism, art is the expression of the inexpressible, the intuitive cognition of what cannot be understood by pure reason. There is no language at all that might render this transcendental and ideal reality which we experience in the intuition of art. The poetic instance is the manifestation of the spirit, the faculty for aesthetic ideas, free and independent of the determination of Nature, but reconciled with her in artistic creation. The identity of subject and object is given in the works of art the very instant beauty is reveaIed in the vast infinity of the human spirit.
