Exploring the Relevance of Intrapreneurship and Innovation in Mature Organizations
Authors: Almeida Fernando
Published: September 2020

This study intends to explore the phenomenon of intrapreneurship and the relevance of the innovation processes in mature organizations by conducting three case studies on traditional industry sectors such as the textile, metalworking, and electronic components sector. The aim is to explore the role of entrepreneurial teams in such companies, to understand the inhibiting factors of innovation, and to find the essential conditions for these organizations to continuously innovate and promote intrapreneurship within their organizations. The findings reveal that several factors constrain employee participation in this process, including lack of qualifications levels, limited resources, corporate bureaucracy, and reduced time and budget. In the conditions necessary to support the innovation process emerge the support given by the management team, the qualification of individuals and teams, and the existence of an organizational culture that promotes communication, collaboration, and tolerance to risk.
On horospheric limit sets of Kleinian groups
Authors: Falk Kurt , Matsuzaki Katsuhiko
Published: September 2020

In this paper we partially answer a question of P. Tukia about the size of the difference between the big horospheric limit set and the horospheric limit set of a Kleinian group. We mainly investigate the case of normal subgroups of Kleinian groups of divergence type and show that this difference is of zero conformal measure by using another result obtained here: the Myrberg limit set of a non-elementary Kleinian group is contained in the horospheric limit set of any non-trivial normal subgroup.

Published: September 2020

O processo de hominização leva ao desenvolvimento do indivíduo no mundo. Percebe-se que aaliança entre a Psicologia e a Educação promove o desenvolvimento da sociedade ao ampliar esseprocesso. Desde seu reconhecimento enquanto profissão, no Brasil, em 1962, a Psicologia jáassumia a perspectiva da formação para modalidade da Licenciatura, porém com as mudanças naspolíticas educacionais, essa foi sendo esquecida. Não obstante, a partir da LDB de 1996, há aretomada de tal modalidade educacional que passa a ganhar força no avançar do século XXI.Nesse sentido, o presente artigo retoma a evolução da legislação das diretrizes curriculares degraduação de Psicologia que tratam da Licenciatura no curso de Psicologia. A partir da discussãodocumental, realizou-se o levantamento das IES que oferecem a opção de ênfase em licenciatura.Tais dados foram buscados a partir dos respectivos cadastros de oferta de curso no e-MEC, e desseda matriz de cada instituição. Como resultados verificou-se que 543 IES oferecem a graduação empsicologia, dessas, conseguiu-se analisar as matrizes de 470 instituições. Dessas, verificou-se que425 instituições não oferecem a Licenciatura em Psicologia em sua matriz curricular. As 45 queofertam levam a discussão sobre quais as dificuldades e empecilhos para tal implementação, assimcomo a consideração da perda associada para a formação dos profissionais da Psicologia, assimcomo para o desenvolvimento da sociedade em geral, que não tem a oferta de tais discussões naformação de alunos da educação nos mais diversos níveis e modalidades de ensino.
Postcolonial Practice of Interfaith With-ness
Authors: Markose Baiju
Published: September 2020

An attempt to develop the postcolonial practice of interfaith with-ness as a means of radical protest and resistance against the religious fundamentalism and crony capitalism in India has enormous significance today. The postcolonial practice of interfaith with-ness is not only a theoretical postulation but also a radical with-ness (being with) shared with the religious others. The idea proposes a radical politics of recognition, politics of difference, and politics of creative dialogue, rather than an apolitical “practice of tolerance” on which the traditional idea of interreligious dialogue is grounded. As a humble attempt, several Christian expropriations of the idea are being voiced in this essay with a spirit of religious confidentiality. And, the study uses empire criticism and intersectionality as the primary analytical tools.
Reading the Book of Job and Camus's La Peste during COVID-19
Authors: Susanto Erwin
Published: September 2020

The pandemic crisis that is COVID-19 has caused unprecedented suffering throughout the world. At such a time, the religious person can legitimately ask why God allows this and how one’s faith might wrestle with such tragedy. In my search of the Scriptures to respond to these questions, I find the Book of Job to be a fruitful dialogue partner—be it in the way it urges one to consider aspects of suffering that are not apparent or in how it resists attempts at oversimplifying God’s character. In this essay, I compare the Book of Job with Albert Camus’s novel La Peste, the latter being set during an epidemic. I argue that both literary works provide space for a theological voice to recognize and articulate suffering in terms of divine justice; both works also enable one to resist any concrete framework for explaining suffering. I then suggest that La Peste complements one’s reading of Job as Scripture by highlighting both the importance of active response to suffering as well as the relational dimension of suffering in the world, which should prove to be helpful in this time of crisis and beyond.
The Acting Person on the U.S.-Mexico Border
Authors: Ludji Irene
Published: September 2020

This article discusses the importance of being a neighbor, as understood through Karol Wojtyla’s idea of “the acting person,” in the context and experience of the migrants and humanitarian volunteers on the U.S.-Mexico border. There are three parts to this article. In the first part, I discuss the reality that migrants and humanitarian volunteers face at the U.S.-Mexico border. Migrants live in a liminal and violent space at the border, and the volunteers choose to enter this space to meet the vulnerable others. In the second part, I examine an idea presented by then-Cardinal Karol Wojtyla in his book The Acting Person. In the book─published in 1969 before he became Pope John Paul II in 1978─Wojtyla addresses the importance of being a neighbor through conscious participation in actions “together with others” for the achievement of the common good. In the third part, I present a critical reflection on the connection between migrants’ context and humanitarian work experience at the U.S.-Mexico border and Wojtyla’s idea of the acting person as a neighbor. By putting the idea of a neighbor in dialogue with the context of the U.S.-Mexico border, I intend to broaden Wojtyla’s thought to address the contemporary circumstances at the border.

Protocolo de mobilização precoce de paciente crítico e reabilitação pós-alta hospitalar na população infantil acometida de COVID-19
Authors: Lanza Fernanda De Cordoba , Aquino Evanirso Silva , Sousa Mayson Laércio de Araújo , Andrade Paulo Douglas De Oliveira
Published: September 2020

Esse documento tem por objetivo apresentar recomendações para mobilização precoce e exercícios terapêuticos em pacientes pediátricos acometidos pela COVID-19, ou em suspeita da doença, no ambiente hospitalar, bem como para reabilitação pós alta. Independente da fase de tratamento, ressalta-se a extrema necessidade do uso de equipamentos de proteção individual pelo fisioterapeuta. Com o objetivo de prevenir/minimizar a fraqueza muscular adquirida na UTI, recomenda-se a utilização de protocolo de mobilização precoce baseado na mobilização funcional segura e progressiva, apropriando atividades ao nível de desenvolvimento neuropsicomotor. A reabilitação hospitalar está indicada aos pacientes na unidade de internação e a avaliação da capacidade funcional poderá ser utilizada nos pacientes mais estáveis, para conduzir a intervenção. Como a reabilitação ambulatorial presencial deve ser evitada durante a pandemia de COVID-19, recomenda-se a Telereabilitação. No entanto, ressalta-se a necessidade da primeira avaliação ser presencial para correta prescrição de treinamento e especial atenção para dispneia e dessaturação durante o telemonitoramento.

Los pequeños y medianos carnívoros (familias Mustelidae, Procyonidae, Canidae y Mephitidae) son uno de los grupos de mamíferos menos conocidos en Colombia, sin embargo, representan un componente importante de la fauna de mamíferos del país (González-Maya et al. 2011). Dentro de estos, algunas especies cuentan con menos información, y a pesar de ser consideradas de amplia distribución para la costa Caribe colombiana, es poco lo que se conoce sobre aspectos puntuales de sus amenazas, estado de conservación, historia natural, ecología, así como su interacción y relación con comunidades humanas (González-Maya et al. 2011, Borón & Payán 2013, Pineda-Guerrero et al. 2013).
Comentarios sobre supuestos registros recientes de la comadreja colombiana (Mustela felipei: Carnivora) en Colombia
Authors: Ramírez-Chaves Héctor E. , Torres-Martínez María M.
Published: September 2020

La Comadreja Colombiana (Mustela felipei) es quizás la especie de carnívoro más rara de Sudamérica (Schreiber et al. 1989), debido al escaso número de registros conocidos y validados (Ramírez-Chaves et al. 2012, Ramírez-Chaves & Patterson 2014). La especie puede incluirse en la categoría C de rareza, de acuerdo a Arita et al. (1990), debido a que presenta distribución restringida y bajas densidades poblacionales. Aunque se ha mencionado que existen al menos 10 localidades de registros (Emmons & Helgen 2008, Burneo et al. 2009), también se ha demostrado que muchas de ellas carecen de soporte (RamírezChaves & Mantilla-Meluk 2009, Ramírez-Chaves et al. 2012), debido a estas circunstancias se ha hecho un llamado a la prudencia cuando se trata de presentar registros sobre la especie (Ramírez-Chaves et al. 2012).

Fue una experiencia en la que se mezcló, o mejor, reconcilió la técnica, la investigación, la expresión artística y las formas de producción comercial y experimental, con el fin de aportar en la construcción del tejido social; que orientara a los estudiantes a desarrollar un pensamiento crítico relacionado con un tema tan complejo como la guerra en Colombia.
The effect of interactive ozone chemistry on weak and strong stratospheric polar vortex events
Authors: Oehrlein Jessica , Chiodo Gabriel , Polvani Lorenzo M.
Published: September 2020

Abstract. Modeling and observational studies have reported effects of stratospheric ozone extremes on Northern Hemisphere spring climate. Recent work has further suggested that the coupling of ozone chemistry and dynamics amplifies the surface response to midwinter sudden stratospheric warmings (SSWs). Here we study the importance of interactive ozone chemistry in representing the stratospheric polar vortex and Northern Hemisphere winter surface climate variability. We contrast two simulations from the interactive and specified chemistry (and thus ozone) versions of the Whole Atmosphere Community Climate Model, which is designed to isolate the impact of interactive ozone on polar vortex variability. In particular, we analyze the response with and without interactive chemistry to midwinter SSWs, March SSWs, and strong polar vortex events (SPVs). With interactive chemistry, the stratospheric polar vortex is stronger and more SPVs occur, but we find little effect on the frequency of midwinter SSWs. At the surface, interactive chemistry results in a pattern resembling a more negative North Atlantic Oscillation following midwinter SSWs but with little impact on the surface signatures of late winter SSWs and SPVs. These results suggest that including interactive ozone chemistry is important for representing North Atlantic and European winter climate variability.

Abstract. Balloon-borne measurements of cryogenic frost-point hygrometer (CFH) water vapor, ozone and
temperature and water vapor lidar measurements from the Maïdo Observatory on Réunion Island in the southwest Indian Ocean (SWIO) were
used to study tropical cyclones' influence on tropical tropopause layer (TTL) composition. The balloon
launches were specifically planned using a Lagrangian model and Meteosat-7
infrared images to sample the convective outflow from tropical storm (TS)
Corentin on 25 January 2016 and tropical cyclone (TC) Enawo on 3 March
2017. Comparing the CFH profile to Aura's Microwave Limb Sounder's (MLS) monthly climatologies, water vapor anomalies
were identified. Positive anomalies of water vapor and temperature, and
negative anomalies of ozone between 12 and 15 km in altitude (247 to 121 hPa),
originated from convectively active regions of TS Corentin and TC Enawo 1 d before the planned balloon launches according to the Lagrangian
trajectories. Near the tropopause region, air masses on 25 January 2016 were anomalously
dry around 100 hPa and were traced back to TS Corentin's active convective
region where cirrus clouds and deep convective clouds may have dried the
layer. An anomalously wet layer around 68 hPa was traced back to the southeast Indian Ocean where a monthly water vapor anomaly of 0.5 ppmv was observed. In
contrast, no water vapor anomaly was found near or above the tropopause
region on 3 March 2017 over Maïdo as the tropopause region was not
downwind of TC Enawo. This study compares and contrasts the impact of two
tropical cyclones on the humidification of the TTL over the SWIO. It also
demonstrates the need for accurate balloon-borne measurements of water
vapor, ozone and aerosols in regions where TTL in situ observations are sparse.

Published: September 2020

Abstract. Aerosol acidity governs several key processes in aerosol physics and chemistry, thus affecting aerosol mass and composition, and ultimately the climate and human health. Previous studies have reported the aerosol pH separately in China and the United States, implying a different aerosol acidity between these two countries. However, underlying mechanisms responsible for the pH difference are not fully understood, limited by the scarcity of simultaneous measurements of aerosol composition and gas species, especially in China. Here we conduct a comprehensive assessment of the aerosol acidity in China and the United States, using extended ground-level measurements and regional chemical transport model simulations. We show aerosol in China is significantly less acidic than that in the United States, with pH values 1–2 units higher. Based on a multivariable Taylor Series method and a series of sensitivity tests, we identify several major factors leading to the pH difference. Compared to the United States, aerosols in China are generally in total ammonia (TNH3 = NH4+ + NH3) rich conditions where particle phase ammonium (NH4+) concentrations are adequate enough to nearly neutralize major acidic inorganic anions such as sulfate, nitrate, and chloride, leading to a higher aerosol pH. Higher relative availability of the stronger acidic component, sulfate, compared with the weaker acidic component, total nitrate (TNO3 = NO3− + HNO3), also contributes to the lower aerosol pH in the United States. As a response to higher aerosol pH, the higher nitrate to sulfate molar ratios in China indicates a nitrate-rich condition, further leading to higher aerosol water uptake which will continually promote nitrate aerosol formation. Considering the historical emissions trends, the difference in aerosol acidity between these two countries is expected to continue as SO2 and NOx emissions are further controlled. The differences in aerosol acidity highlight in the present study imply potential differences in formation mechanisms, physicochemical properties, and toxicity of aerosol particles between China and the United States.
Abundance and viability of particle-attached and free-floating bacteria in dusty and nondusty air
Authors: Hu Wei , Murata Kotaro , Fan Chunlan , Huang Shu , Matsusaki Hiromi , Fu Pingqing , Zhang Daizhou
Published: September 2020

Abstract. Airborne bacteria are widespread as a major proportion of
bioaerosols, and their coexistence with dust particles enables both bacteria
and dust particles to be more active in ice cloud
formation and to be harmful to public health. However, the abundance and
viability of particle-attached and free-floating bacteria in dusty air have
not been quantitatively investigated. We researched this subject based on
the fact that airborne bacterial cells are approximately 1 µm or
smaller in aerodynamic diameter; therefore, particle-attached bacteria
should occur in aerosol samples of particles larger than 1 µm, and
free-floating bacteria should occur among particles smaller than 1 µm.
Our observations at a coastal site in Japan in spring, when the westerlies
frequently transported dust from the Asian continent, revealed that
particle-attached bacteria in dust episodes, at the concentration of 3.2±2.1×105 cells m−3 on average, occupied 72±9 % of the total bacteria. In contrast, the fraction was 56±17 % during nondusty periods, and the concentration was 1.1±0.7×105 cells m−3. The viability, defined as the ratio
of viable cells to total cells, of particle-attached bacteria was 69±19 % in dust episodes and 60±22 % during nondusty periods on
average, both of which were considerably lower than the viabilities of
free-floating bacteria (about 87 %) under either dusty or nondusty
conditions. The presented cases suggest that dust particles carried
substantial amounts of bacteria on their surfaces, more than half of which
were viable, and spread these bacteria through the atmosphere. This implies
that dust and bacteria have important roles as internally mixed assemblages
in cloud formation and in linking geographically isolated microbial
communities, as well as possibly having a synergistic impact on human health.
Topography-based modelling reveals high spatial variability and seasonal emission patches in forest floor methane flux

Published: September 2020

Abstract. Boreal forest soils are globally an important sink for methane (CH4), while these soils are also capable to emit CH4 under favourable conditions. Soil wetness is a well-known driver of CH4 flux, and the wetness can be estimated with several terrain indices developed for the purpose. The aim of this study was to quantify the spatial variability of the forest floor CH4 flux with a topography-based upscaling method connecting the flux with its driving factors. We conducted spatially extensive forest floor CH4 flux and soil moisture measurements, complemented with ground vegetation classification, in a boreal pine forest. We then modelled the soil moisture with a Random Forest model using topography, based on which we upscaled the forest floor CH4 flux – this was performed for two seasons: May–July and August–October. Our results demonstrate high spatial heterogeneity in the forest floor CH4 flux, resulting from the soil moisture variability, as well as on the related ground vegetation. The spatial variability in the soil moisture and consequently in the CH4 flux was higher in the early summer compared to the autumn period, and overall the CH4 uptake rate was higher in autumn compared to early summer. In the early summer there were patches emitting high amounts of CH4, however, these wet patches got drier and smaller in size towards the autumn, which was enough for changing their dynamics to CH4 uptake. The results highlight the small-scale spatial variability of the boreal forest floor CH4 flux, and the importance of soil chamber placement in order to obtain spatially representative CH4 flux results. We recommend that a site of similar size and topographical variation would require 15–20 sample points in order to achieve accurate forest floor CH4 flux.
Brief Communication: Mesoscale and submesoscale dynamics in the marginal ice zone from sequential synthetic aperture radar observations
Authors: Kozlov Igor E. , Plotnikov Evgeny V. , Manucharyan Georgy E.
Published: September 2020

Abstract. New possibilities for horizontal current retrieval in
marginal ice zones (MIZs) from sequential Sentinel-1 synthetic aperture
radar (SAR) images are demonstrated. Daily overlapping SAR acquisitions
within 70–85∘ S/N at time intervals < 1 h enable
estimation of high-resolution velocity fields, revealing MIZ dynamics down
to submesoscales. An example taken from the Fram Strait MIZ reveals
energetic eddies and filaments with Rossby numbers reaching O(1) magnitudes.
The SAR-derived velocity estimations at such high spatial resolution can be
critical for monitoring the evolving MIZ dynamics and model validation of
submesoscale processes in polar oceans.
When hypotaxis looks like parataxis: embedding and complementizer agreement in Teiwa
Authors: Sauerland Uli , Hollebrandse Bart , Kratochvíl František
Published: September 2020

Teiwa, an Alor-Pantar language of the Trans-New Guinea family, has been characterized as expressing speech reports not with complementation, but with combinations of two clauses juxtaposed under a single intonation contour with no morphological indication for integration (Klamer 2010: A Grammar of Teiwa, Mouton de Gruyter). We argue, contra Klamer, that speech and attitude reports in Teiwa should be analyzed as embedding (or hypotaxis). We present evidence from intonation, syntax and semantics that speech reports are expressed by a single, monosentential structure in Teiwa with embedding of the speech report. Our results also show that purely morphological diagnostics can be unreliable for distinguishing between a monosentential or bisentential structure of speech reports. We describe several formal experiments from our fieldwork that provide more reliable tests. Our result has implications for both the ongoing theoretical discussions of clausal complementation, complementizer agreement, grammaticalization of complementizers and the historical evolution of complementation.

Published: September 2020

Aim of Study: The complex community of riparian reserve forest has become of great concern for researchers to develop more viable management strategies. The paper aimed to evaluate the current structural diversity of vegetation and its association with the physical environment of low-lying forest for proposing the rehabilitation interventions.  Area of Study: We studied two forests, Chung-Mohlanwal and Dhana-Bheni on both riverbanks along river Ravi in the Jhok riparian reserve forest situated in the southwest of Lahore, Pakistan.Material and Methods: A methodological framework was developed based firstly, on direct comparison of diversity (measured by Hill numbers) and structure of existed vegetation layers (trees, shrubs, herbs, and grasses) and environmental factors (canopy structure, anthropogenic activities, microclimate, and soil characteristics) between the two forests and secondly, on environment-vegetation association using Canonical Correspondence Analysis (CCA) ordination method.Results: Dhana forest was more diverse vegetation layers (Shannon Diversity index 1D < 11) and intact due to plantation of uneven-aged tree stands of varied stand basal area and stem density. Microclimate under this forest could not support the dominant understory positively unlike the monoculture forest. On the contrary, Chung-Mohlanwal forest was under the influence of uncontrolled grazing activities, fuelwood extraction, and invasive species. Multivariate analysis CCA elucidated that most variance was shown by soil characteristics (38.5 %) for understory vegetation in both forests.Research Highlights: Overstory stand structure, species composition, distance to nearby communities, and soil characteristics should be considered for developing forest planting and management strategies.Keywords: Vegetation Structure; Hill Numbers; Grazing; Environment; Management.Abbreviation used: CCA (Canonical Correspondence Analysis); 1D (Shannon Diversity); Ca + Mg (Calcium + Magnesium); Na (Sodium); ECe (Electrical Conductivity); DBH (Diameter at Breast Height); IUCN (International Union for Conservation of Nature); SBA (Stand Basal area); BA (Basal Area); 0D (Richness); 2D (Simpson Index); IVI (Importance Value Index); LU (Livestock Unit); GPS (Global Positioning System); OC (Organic Carbon); OM (Organic matter); SAR (Sodium Adsorption Ratio); N (Nitrogen); P (Phosphorous); K (Potassium); DCA (Detrended Correspondence Analysis); S (Shrub); H (Herb); G (Grass).

Faith, Reason, and the Liberal Order
Authors: Beckwith Francis J. ,   Philosophy Documentation Center
Published: September 2020

Claims of religious conscience that run counter to prevailing cultural trends are increasingly met with bewilderment and disbelief. The author argues that this should not surprise us given the ways in which the rational and liturgical status of religious beliefs and practices (especially those tightly tethered to the Christian faith) are widely misunderstood and misrepresented by jurists and legal philosophers. To make this point the author discusses some recent arguments found in court cases as well as in legal scholarship on religion. He encourages Catholic philosophers—who typically do not work in this area--to enter the fray by contributing to the jurisprudential literature that touches on issues of faith, reason, and religious liberty.

The consensus states that he wavered in his opinion about whether determinate dimensions or indeterminate dimensions serve in the individuation of corporeal substances. I argue that this consensus is mistaken. I focus on early texts of Thomas to argue that he relies on different types of dimensions to answer different problems of individuation. Determinate dimensions resolve a problem in the order of perfection, and indeterminate dimensions resolve a problem in the order of generation. I explain texts that answer the problem of individuation in the order of perfection according to questions about universals, cognition, and science. I then explain texts that answer the problem of individuation in the order of generation. My conclusion argues that, despite abandoning the language, Thomas continues later in his career to rely on indeterminate dimensions to resolve the problem of individuation in the order of generation.

Authors: Bertolino Marco , Costa Gabriele , Bavestrello Giorgio , Pansini Maurizio , Daneri Giovanni
Published: September 2020

Until now, only 177 species of sponges (Porifera) have been reported for Chilean coastal waters. Here we describe recent scuba diving surveys undertaken to improve our knowledge of the diversity of the sponge fauna of the Seno Magdalena, Puyuhuapi Fjord and Jacaf Canal in Chilean Patagonia. Despite these relatively harsh environments, our study yielded 23 species of Demospongiae, nine of which are new to science and described here: Hymerabdia imperfecta Bertolino, Costa & Pansini sp. nov., Axinella cylindrica Bertolino, Costa & Pansini sp. nov., Axinella coronata Bertolino, Costa & Pansini sp. nov., Biemna aurantiaca Bertolino, Costa & Pansini sp. nov., Biemna erecta Bertolino, Costa & Pansini sp. nov., Biemna typica Bertolino, Costa & Pansini sp. nov., Scopalina cribrosa Bertolino, Costa & Pansini sp. nov., Rhizaxinella strongylata Bertolino, Costa & Pansini sp. nov. and Darwinella pronzatoi Bertolino, Costa & Pansini sp. nov. One species, Hymedesmia (Stylopus) lissostyla (Bergquist & Fromont, 1988), is reported for the first time for Chile.

Philosophical Questions about Teaching Philosophy: What's at Stake in High School Philosophy Education?
Authors: Norris Trevor
Published: September 2020

What is at stake in high school philosophy education, and why? Why is it a good idea to teach philosophy at this level? This essay seeks to address some issues that arose in revising the Ontario grade 12 philosophy curriculum documents, significant insights from philosophy teacher education, and some early results of recent research funded by the federal Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC) in Canada. These three topics include curricular disputes, stories of transformation from philosophy student to philosophy teacher, and preliminary research findings. All underscore the importance and complexity of philosophy education, as well as its challenges and benefits, including the cross-curricular benefits philosophy education imparts to the study of other subject areas. Collectively, these serve as a springboard for asking some larger and broader philosophical questions about the teaching and learning of philosophy, and they demonstrate that this is a promising new area of study and of teaching for philosophers of education. I will raise some questions about philosophy that will help frame the next stage in the SSHRC research into the teaching and learning of philosophy in Ontario, and which I contend are new and fundamental questions to ask about philosophy itself.
Unequal Classrooms: Online Higher Education and Non-Cognitive Skills
Authors: Morton Jennifer M.
Published: September 2020

In this paper, I reflect on the changing role of higher education by focusing on the case of online education. I consider the promise of online education as a means to mitigate educational inequalities. Based on the available empirical evidence, I argue that this promise is unlikely to be fulfilled because online education is not well-suited to develop the social and emotional skills needed by students from low-income and minority backgrounds for social mobility. Nonetheless, the changing social, political, and economic role of the university should lead us to revise the classical vision of the university’s aims. I argue that the aim of the university should be sensitive to its new social, political, and economic role without falling prey to coarse pragmatism. This third approach delicately navigates the middle-ground between idealism and pragmatism.
The Epistemology Behind the Educational Philosophy of Montessori: Senses, Concepts, and Choice
Authors: Colgan Andrew D.
Published: September 2020

This article seeks to re-introduce Dr. Maria Montessori’s educational philosophy, which has been absent from modern philosophy of education literature. It describes and analyzes crucial aspects of her epistemology, as best known through her Method. Discussed are the need for early education, the development of the senses, and the exercise of choice by the students. Concept formation is also shown to be an important part of Montessori’s philosophy of instruction. This article concludes with a brief resolution of the “is–ought” objection as framed by Scheffler that might be waged against Montessori’s approach.
Cultivating Identities: The Catholic School as Diverse Ecclesial Space
Authors: McDonough Graham P.
Published: September 2020

I argue that the crisis of identity Catholic schools are experiencing in the 21st century also presents an opportunity for a rediscovery and expanded conversation, both within and beyond the confines of the institutional Church, of what it means to exist separately from the mainstream without restricting internal diversity.  I begin by presenting salient historical, theological, and sociological features Catholicism and Catholic Education during and since the Second Vatican Council (1962-5) to establish the context and substance of its modern identity crisis.  I then provide a review of current controversies within Catholic schools to demonstrate how they are symptomatic of this crisis, but also potential catalysts for exploring new options. The next section argues both for the merits of recognizing multiple Catholic identities, and imagining the Catholic school as an institution that assembles and coordinates them.  I propose that the fact of multiple Catholic identities should be interpreted as differences in kind, rather than by their degree of difference from a narrowly constructed idea of Catholicism.  I also propose that the intersection of these identities at school should be encouraged as a way of nurturing both students’ own identities and their ability to encounter religious difference within their own tradition and community.  The conclusion demonstrates how in practice this model presents a promising means of possibly deepening individual and institutional religious identit(y/ies) in today’s world, and for responding to controversial issues that arise within Catholic schools.
“The Very Unrecognizability of the Other”: Edith Stein, Judith Butler, and the Pedagogical Challenge of Empathy
Authors: Kukar Polina
Published: September 2020

There is no standard definition of empathy, but the concept is assumed to be innately pro-social and teachable regardless of factors such as power dynamics or other manifestations of social injustice within a society. Such assumptions in discursive practices, whether academic, popular, or pedagogical, obscure the emergence of two important questions: What does it mean when we cannot empathize with another? And could it be that we may gain greater insight from the examination of empathy’s limits and failures than the hopes we have for its success? Through an exploration of some of Edith Stein’s and Judith Butler’s work on the subject, I propose that discussions of empathy, particularly in education, must be grounded in social context. Once this is done, assumptions about empathy must be continually troubled if one is to have a cogent conversation—whether as a philosopher, social theorist, educator, or policy maker—about what empathy is (or is not) and what it does (or does not) make possible.
The Perfectionist Call of Intelligibility: Secondary English, Creative Writing, and Moral Education
Authors: Belas Oliver
Published: September 2020

This article puts forward moral-philosophical arguments for re-building and re-thinking secondary-level (high-school equivalent) English studies around creative writing practices. I take it that when educators and policy makers talk about such entities as the "well-rounded learner," what we have, or should have, in mind is moral agents whose capacities for moral dialogue, judgement, and discourse are increased as a result of their formal educational experiences. In its current form, secondary English is built mainly, though not exclusively, around reading assessment; around, that is, demonstration of students' "comprehension" of texts. There is little or no sense that the tradition and practice of literary criticism upon which this type of assessment is based is a writerly tradition. By making writing practices central to what it is to do English in the secondary classroom, I argue that we stand a better chance at helping students develop their capacities for self-expression, for articulating their developing webs of belief and for scrutinizing those webs of belief. I thus wish to think about English and Creative Writing Studies in light of Cavell’s moral perfectionism, and to conceive of it as an arts-practical subject and a mode by which one might, in Baldacchino’s sense, undergo a process of "unlearning." My arguments are tailored to the English educational context.
Education in Safe and Unsafe Spaces
Authors: Callan Eamonn
Published: September 2020

Recent student demands within the academy for "safe space" have aroused concern about the constraints they might impose on free speech and academic freedom. There are as many kinds of safety as there are threats to the things that human beings might care about. That is why we need to be very clear about the specific threats of which the intended beneficiaries of safe space are supposed to be relieved. Much of the controversy can be dissolved by distinguishing between "dignity safety," to which everyone has a right, and "intellectual safety" of a kind that is repugnant to the education worth having. Psychological literature on stereotype threat and the interventions that alleviate its adverse effects shed light on how students’ equal dignity can be made safe in institutions without compromising liberty. But "intellectual safety" in education can only be conferred at the cost of indulging close-mindedness and allied vices. Tension between securing dignity safety and creating a fittingly unsafe intellectual environment can be eased when teaching and institutional ethos promote the virtue of civility. Race is used throughout the article as the example of a social category that can spur legitimate demands for "dignity safe space."
The Political as Presence: On Agonism in Citizenship Education
Authors: Tryggvason Ásgeir
Published: September 2020

In recent years, an agonistic approach to citizenship education has been put forward as a way of educating democratic citizens. Claudia W. Ruitenberg (2009) has developed such an approach and takes her starting point in Chantal Mouffe’s agonistic theory. Ruitenberg highlights how political emotions and political disputes can be seen as central for a vibrant democratic citizenship education. The aim of this paper is to critically explore and further develop the concepts of political emotions and political disputes as central components of an agonistic approach. In order to do this, I return to Mouffe’s point of departure in the concept of the political. By drawing on Michael Marder’s (2010) notion of enmity, I suggest how “the presence of the other” can be seen as a vital aspect of the political in citizenship education. By not abandoning the concept of enmity, and with the notion of presence in the foreground, I argue that Ruitenberg’s definition of political emotions needs to be formulated in a way that includes emotions revolving around one’s own existence as a political being. Moreover, I argue that in order to further develop the agonistic approach, the emphasis on the verbalization of opinions in political disputes needs to be relaxed, as it limits the political dimension in education and excludes crucial political practices, such as exodus.
