US COVID-19 EXAM FAILURE MAKES WORLD LEERY ABOUT AMERICAN EXCEPTIONALISM AND LEADERSHIP

For a newbie in the USA, heath care, education, science and economy are presented as exceptional; the best of the world, but these nice words are not backed by reality, and it is hard to openly talk about these issues as they turn into an inconvenient truth, and the fact that truth is anti-American and anti-human makes it more difficult to correct the problems, as it turns difficult to openly acknowledge the issues and look for solutions. Trump and revealed a bunch of American truths, removed the of kindness and exceptionalism, and put in the limelight a lot of inconvenient realities of the actual USA, a country ideologically divided and under Lord , a nation sunk in alternate realities and facts, with a political leadership inept for progress. Looking to understand why this aberrant behavior in front of SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, we discovered that the F++ grade USA obtained at this “ecologic” exam, is routed in education of the last 50 years, that produced such population with very low real IQ, but loud arrogant and oblivious of their situation, with little respect for reality and knowledge.
 From the education stand point, the thinks appear even more complicated, because failures in education are routed in society, and the education system produced exactly what society asked and paid for, everything becoming a “chicken or egg” problem, under “what to solve first” dilemma
 The present research was looking to find an answer to this very complex problem, at minimum to openly list the issues, and propose idealistic solutions, looking to become a wake-up moment not only for the USA but for many other nations which are confronted with the same issues, of a decadent democracy and consumerist economy, without pleading for extreme left solution manifested autocratic regimes.

Probleme deschise de fenomenologia lui Husserl prin prisma integrării sale în modelul ontologic informaţional propus de Mihai Drăgănescu

Abstract: May another reality exist so as to generate our physical world? Both Mihai Drăgănescu and Edmund Husserl said yes. But there is a main difference between those two approaches. So, Romanian scholar Mihai Drăgănescu proposed an ontological model with strong phenomenological character in which information and material principles are at the same level. Instead Husserl proposed an idealist (transcendental) solution. In this respect Drăgănescu’s model seems to be more general and consistent. Also Mihai Drăgănescu says that Husserl’s Phenomenology can be integrated in his model. But for this some problems appeared. Our present work is dedicated to identifying such problems. In subsequent material we will analyze how these problems can be solved.

Anthropology and diplomacy

Diplomacy is today undergoing rapid change, shaken by new populisms, seismic shifts in the balance of world powers, the digital revolution, planetary crisis and declining confidence in institutions of world governance that were conceived in a more hopeful era. Far from offering another idealistic solution, this introduction sketches a theorization anchored in the comparison of empirical case studies that lie outside of classic definitions of diplomacy, centred on relations between states. By privileging a pragmatic and interactionalist approach, and through attention to the particular political inventiveness of the vanquished, it aims to identify some commonalities across diverse diplomatic situations, namely a particular relation to violence (not always one of exclusion), the invention of rituals that model, in miniature, the world, and the destabilizing imitation of the other.

The Influence of Organizing Historical Textures on Citizenry Satisfaction in the Old Texture Neighbourhoods of Rasht

Study about historical textures and its values is always one of the most important topics in recent decades of Iran. This research is based on organizing historical textures and its influence on citizenry satisfaction in the old texture neighbourhoods of Rasht. This case, start with recognition the neighbourhood and investigate of its problems and requirements of citizens who live there via codify questionnaire. In this research, it was attempted to organize historical textures, with cite descriptive - analytical method and base on field and library surveys. Also utilize SWOT model, in order to improve vitality situations with idealistic solutions in this historical texture. Results show that, this neighbourhood has physical & spatial weaknesses and it is not proportional with its resident’s requirements. In conclusion, according to investigates with organize historical textures in terms of physical, social, economic and environmental aspects, we're able to return dynamism, vivacity and vitality to the historical textures in addition to their requirements. Also preservation from historical textures, if done with tact and planning, it can create symbols of identity and culture for future generations.

Two directions for teleology: naturalism and idealism

Philosophers of biology claim that function talk is consistent with naturalism. Yet recent work in biology places new pressure on this claim. An increasing number of biologists propose that the existence of functions depends on the organisation of systems. While systems are part of the domain studied by physics, they are capable of interacting with this domain through organising principles. This is to say that a full account of biological function requires teleology. Does naturalism preclude reference to teleological causes? Or are organised systems precisely a naturalised form of teleology? In this paper I suggest that the biology of organised systems reveals several contradictions in the main philosophical conceptions of naturalism. To integrate organised systems with naturalism’s basic assumptions—that there is no theory-independent view for metaphysics, and that nature is intelligible—I propose an idealist solution.

Individuation and Economic Theory

To show briefly how the economic theory now dominant, so-called “Neoclassical Economics” depends on a rationalist or idealistic solution to that problem of the individuation.

Katastrofe i migracije: kritičko-hermeneutički pristup

Departing from Sorokin dualistic (“internal” and “external”) explanations of movement and from an extended critical hermeneutic understanding of the life-world, the article first analyzes some examples of mythologems/ideologems of migration. Furthermore, it discusses the connection between catastrophes and migrations in the animal and human world, the movements of things and ideas, especially the myth of the “migration of souls”. The main (hypo)thesis relates to the contemporary blockade of mass migration of people from the South to the North, which is taken as a result of the collapse of key development projects arising from the ideology of liberalism and socialism, where, as an anti-modernization response, a part of the South reactivates myth of the “migration of souls”. Catastrophic events thus cause (mass) migration, interpreted as a phenomenon of the life-worlds in two ways: firstly, as an object of religious and scientific worldviews that postulate nothingness or disappearance of (individual) species as a precondition for creation (of a new world or new species); secondly, catastrophes are reinterpreted from the perspective of the concept of multiple universes, which is more hermeneutic than analytical. In imperial cosmologies material or ideal element of the monistic assumption of the universe prevails. The prevalence is expressed as the conceptual split between the immortal “migrant” soul and decaying “indigenous” body (idealistic solution) or combined (materialistic solution). The exodus as a motif occurs in many cultures along with the myth of “migration of souls”. Nowadays, the myth is reactivated among populations obsessed by militaristic idea of the “holy war”. The aggression against the life-worlds is thus composed of two long-term processes that undermine (utopian) hope for a better life. One process relates to the expansion of the capitalist markets that leads to the impoverishment of most people in the South. The second process relates to substituting secular migration to safer areas by illusory, i.e. apocalyptic scenarios of survival. The author argues that only rational answer to the destructive threat is translating ideas about the multiple universe into new, yet alternative, global investments into the development of the South (and the North). This way, a potential immigrant participates in the building of his/her local environment, whereby his/her (e)migration becomes unnecessary or the subject to free choice.

Apocalipsis de la madre patria: la decadencia de la Europa de finales del siglo XIX en las “crónicas” de Rubén Darío

The last part of Ruben Dario's literary production was marked by a change in his poetics, that means he increased intimism, civil and political interests. In the chronicles written at the end of the 19th century, the change also concerns the author's statement of European decadence and fall. In this period, in which Spain lost his colonies (1898), Dario focuses on the reasons why Spain (Espana contemporanea, 1901) and to some extent France (Peregrinaciones, 1901; Parisiana, 1908) got into an extensive cultural crisis. In this essay I get evidence of Dario's political thought, pointing out the way in which he recognizes signs of decadence, and the arguments he uses, which imply an idealistic solution to problems.

Recruiting opiate users to a randomized controlled trial in primary care: a descriptive study of GP attitudes

Historically, few randomized controlled trials (RCTs) have been conducted in primary care and problems have been experienced applying this methodology in these settings. In 2001, The Leeds Evaluation of Efficacy of Detoxification Study (LEEDS) was developed. This RCT aimed to compare two detoxification drugs to inform best practice for the treatment of opiate users presenting to primary care requesting detoxification. This paper presents descriptive data from a postal survey of 12 general practitioners (GPs) from 10 primary care practices who were involved in the LEEDS trial. The questionnaire was sent out in November 2004, used open and closed questions and was self-administered. It uncovered factors that affected patient recruitment, GPs' views on the trial and their experience of randomizing opiate using patients. Flexible solutions to overcoming recruitment difficulties are presented alongside idealistic solutions to the problems experienced. The implications of our experiences of conducting this RCT in primary care practices are discussed in the light of conducting RCTs in primary care settings. This will benefit other research teams and clinicians who may be planning to use a similar research methodology.

Flexible Standardization: Making Interoperability Accessible to Agencies with Limited Resources

Semantic standardization is an integral part of sharing data for GIS and spatial analysis. It is part of a broader rubric of interoperability or the ability to share geographic information across multiple platforms and contexts. GIScience researchers have made considerable progress towards understanding and addressing the multiple challenges involved in achieving interoperability. For local government agencies interested in sharing spatial data, however, current interoperability approaches based on object-oriented data models represent idealistic solutions to problems of semantic heterogeneity that often exceed the level of sophistication and funding available. They are waiting for the market to decide how interoperability should be resolved. In order to assist in this transition, this paper presents a rule-based Visual Basic application to standardize the semantics of simple spatial entities using several classification systems. We use the example of well-log data, and argue that this approach enables agencies to share and structure data effectively in an interim period during which market and research standards for semantic interoperability are being determined. It contributes to a geospatial data infrastructure, while allowing agencies to share spatial data in a manner consistent with their level of expertise and existing data structures.

Sartre on Mind and World

Being and Nothingness opens with the claim that modern thought has sought to overcome a certain number of dualisms which have embarrassed philosophy in so far as their acceptance provides one with no way of explaining how there can be a relation between mind and world. The dualism of being and appearance is mentioned in this context.1 Sartre contends, however, that modern thought has failed to make good its aim, for the solutions in question have been set out within a framework that presupposes the dualism which was to have been transcended. So, for example, the idealist solution – that being is reducible to appearance – turns out to assume the very conception of appearance implied by the dualistic model (BN 5.iv). By doing so, it fails to provide a genuine alternative to those forms of realism that insist, in similar vein, that there is an insurmountable distinction between being and appearance, and is thus in no better position to explain how there can be a relation between mind and world.

The spatial manifestation of threat: Israelis and palestinians seek a ‘good’ border

Boundary studies in political geography have largely focused on the presentation of empirical case studies. There has been little development of a theory focusing on the multi-faceted nature of both spatial and group boundaries, and the interlinkages between them. An analysis of the boundary concept within the context of the Israeli-Arab conflict points to the importance of understanding both internal and external perceptions of threat. This is reflected in the dual political discourse of physical security and space purification, the former being used as a means of securing territorial boundaries, the latter in an attempt to obtain boundaries between competing national groups. Idealistic solutions to the Israeli-Arab conflict would result from an emphasis on human rights as an alternative to the traditional spatial discourse.

Taking creative leaps

“The creative leap is achieved by imagining idealistic solutions first, then thinking logically backward to solve the problem in the reverse direction.”

Topiques de la question du mal

Many questions never receive an answer because they are badly put or put incompletely . So the difficult andever recurring question ofEvil. The hypothesis put forward and the thesis tested is that the problem of evil should be asked in more radical theological terms thon is usually done. Notwithstanding their relevance, the classical topics ofthe Contra Deum ofthe unbeliever or ofthe Pro Deo of Theodicy are insufficiant . Evil has to be carried as far as in Gbd, In Deo, as a question penetrating through God, carried by God. Ii is only after such a real Theo-logical (question about God) movement, that man can once again pick up the question of evil, as Job did, as a Ad Deum, where the accusation of the He is replaced by the questioning ofthe You. At the end ofthis process, the question ofevil is transformed into a Cum Deo, God unveiling Himselfto man as the one who really is, with him, the adversary of evil. So we corne to an inversion : from evil as objection against God, God becomes the objection towards evil. Far from thus being an idealistic solution, the theological resolve may well appear as the closest to what this problem of man, if there is one, demands.

On the Psychology of Personal Freedom

ON THE PSYCHOLOGY OF PERSONAL FREEDOM HERBERT WEINER, M.D.* I. Introduction In his Republic of Silence, Jean-Paul Sartre commented that under the German occupation ofFrance the meaning offreedom to Frenchmen had never been greater and in consequence they had never been so free. Men could be free either by total engagement in action against the enemy, or in the refuge oftheir minds they could protest, resist, and affirm their freedom . Discussions about freedom have in the past revolved about the polarity ofsubmission to the law, for which the individual is rewarded with freedom , and ofaction against the social and political environment (as during the German occupation) because through rebellion and political or military action more perfect conditions for freedom will be created. Despite various prescriptions for political and social utopias and attempts at making them concrete, the historical fact remains that no society has ever absolutely assured each citizen his freedom. Furthermore, freedom for some has generally been gained at the expense ofanother's freedom. Yet Sartre affirms what history testifies: free men have existed under the most oppressive societies and conditions, and have continued to assert their beliefs, theories, interests, and principles regardless of their field of endeavor . What then are the psychological conditions necessary to provide a man sanctuary within himselfto savor and exercise his freedom in any political or social environment? My thesis in this paper is that personal freedom is not an abstract ideal which continually recedes before man, but an expression of his actions, deliberately chosen, with knowledge ofthe motives which govern them. The assumption in this statement is obviously that he be aware ofall the * AssociateProfessor ofPsychiatry, Albert Einstein College ofMedicine^New York. 479 intentions which guide his conduct, that he be able to reflect on these and in so doing distinguish and choose from amongst them. II. A Definition Personalfreedom defined in this manner clearly becomes a psychological state. The free man is one who is self-aware and prudent (but not made so by fear), master ofhis own motives, freed from external authority and the blind tyranny ofhis moral and instinctual imperatives. Freedom is neither an ethic ofsocial adjustment nor, like health, can it be defined in terms of social convention. It is a condition which may exist in every man, and truly free men may exist in every society [i]. Neither social revolution, idealistic solutions, nor an appeal for the expression ofhis "natural"—i.e., erotic—impulses can assure a man his personal freedom [2], despite many contentions throughout history that they do so. Anyone orany group who has the idea oftransforming society bypolitical or other action must have in mind an order ofpriority—norms and standards ofhuman excellence. But these values, though defining for the would-be reformers their freedom, do not assure the followers or subjects theirs, for the values of the reformer and reformed may not correspond. History has taught us that particular freedoms gained by some are at the expense of others. Asserting that the criterion offreedom is exercise ofa man's instructed will and knowledge ofhimself is thus something quite different. He is more free the more he knows what he is doing, acting with definite and clearly formed intentions. Suppose that a man discovers an obstruction to his achievement. Ifhe is to exercise the choice ofattempting or not to overcome it, he must first find out whether such obstruction stems from within him or from the outside. It would be a total abrogation ofhis freedom either to give in to external demands or to some unknown factor within him. Briefly stated, and following Stuart Hampshire [2]: "Freedom is the exercise of will in practical decisions." By "will" I mean that human faculty which, when instructed by selfknowledge , acts upon thought, feeling, motive, and value before they are translated into action. I will whether to follow Society's rules or not, or to do this or that. This is the faculty which allows men to achieve some detachment from the outer world, in order better to understand, predict, and master it, so that they shall not be restricted by "authoritarian or social 480 Herbert Weiner · On the Psychology ofPersonal Freedom Perspectives in Biology and...
