The Question of Wittgensteinian Thomism
Authors: Hall Michael ,   Southwestern Philosophical Society
Published: March 2024

Wittgensteinian Thomism (WT) proposes a post-Wittgensteinian reading of Aquinas based on the presence of genuine affinities between them in philosophical anthropology, epistemology, philosophy of mind, action theory, and ethics. While this proposal has been historically fruitful in the works of Elizabeth Anscombe, Peter Geach, Anthony Kenny, and Herbert McCabe, there is a significant difficulty in the prima facie incompatibility in the respective attitudes towards metaphysics between Wittgenstein and Aquinas. This calls into question the very coherence of the WT proposal. Against this objection, I will argue that WT is a coherent proposal which can harmonize these seemingly incompatible attitudes towards metaphysics by showing that Wittgenstein’s conception of grammatical observations do not necessarily exclude metaphysics but provides a guide towards it. I will argue that rather than being opposed, grammar and metaphysics are concomitantly joined in Wittgenstein’s later remarks. If this reading of Wittgenstein surmounts that proposed by Hacker, then the incoherence objection to WT simply fails.

Everyday Heritage
Authors: Spoormans Lidwine
Published: March 2024

In improving the sustainability of our built environment, European institutions emphasize the importance of protecting and advancing cultural values. As most of the stock is not listed, nor is its heritage significance assessed, future sustainable developments risk neglecting present attributes, causing the loss of resources and their significance. This problem applies to 1965-1985 Dutch housing, comprising over 30% of the stock, with no clarity on its heritage significance. This thesis aims to reveal significant attributes of residential neighbourhoods, built in The Netherlands between 1965-1985, as identified by involved stakeholders. A research framework integrating attributes, stakeholders and scales, is used to examine case studies in Almere Haven and Amsterdam Zuidoost. The identification of attributes results from open-ended questioning by multiple participatory methods. A process of inductive analysis, classifying and relating attributes revealed categories, chains, and networks of attributes, representing a shared neighbourhood narrative. Results show that attributes can be identified on successive scale levels in tangible and intangible categories. Participants convey significance to attributes originally intended and to attributes added or changed later, to attributes specific to 1965-1985 neighbourhoods and to more generic ones. Different stakeholder groups and individuals do not disagree in their assessments but focus on different attribute categories and scale levels. By combining a broad definition of heritage and participatory methods to identify attributes, this thesis bridges the gap between listed heritage and everyday neighbourhoods. Further developing and applying this approach can support the sustainable development of our built environment, informed by heritage significance, regardless of heritage status.
Towards a new Existenzminimum
Authors: Brysch Sara
Published: March 2024

This thesis brings forward the design dimension, and, more specifically, co-design, to the study of housing affordability. Co-design occurs when end-users and professionals work together towards a common goal. It is a process often applied in collaborative housing, an umbrella concept encompassing different housing forms based on collective self-organisation and collaboration, where residents choose to share certain spaces. The aim of this research is to assess if and how co-design processes applied in collaborative housing may reduce building costs, thereby making these housing projects not only affordable, but even more affordable than mainstream housing. It does so by combining a case study approach with a building costs simulation. Findings indicate that co-design decisions based on a collective self-redefinition of Existenzminimum (minimum dwelling) affect the housing layout and contribute to reduce building costs. By conceptualising housing design through the lenses of affordability, this thesis highlights the understated role of architectural design and building costs as key components in the study and provision of affordable housing solutions; and enriches the existing body of knowledge on affordable collaborative housing. Moreover, it draws attention to the way some outdated building regulations and standards hamper design innovation in housing. This research ends up with a set of general principles for the co-design of affordable collaborative housing. These design principles may assist professionals supporting co-design and, more importantly, people who want to design, build and live in a collaborative manner.
The Intelligent Built-Environment as Cyber-Physical System
Authors: Liu Cheng Alexander
Published: March 2024

This thesis presents an alternative approach to intelligence in the built-environment, departing from the two established yet divergent branches in the discourse: the Technical, centered around Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs), and represented by Ambient Intelligence (AmI) and Ambient Assisted Living (AAL); and the Architectural, centered around architectural / spatial experiences and considerations, and represented by Interactive Architecture and Adaptive Architecture. The promise of both AmI/AAL and IA/AA is constrained by rigid and increasingly outdated assumptions in their approaches—i.e., AmI’s / AAL’s approach to the built-environment, and IA’s / AA’s approach to ICTs. Moreover, it is impossible to combine them to yield a cohesive system due to disparity in their typical Technology Readiness Levels. That is, the sophistication of a system depends on that of its mutually complementing subsystems; and two or more subsystems may not mutually complement, sustain, and/or support one another if their levels of development do not correspond. Consequently, the presented alternative conceives the intelligent built-environment as a Cyber- Physical System. Under this approach, ICTs and Architectural considerations in conjunction instantiate intelligence fundamentally. The presented approach’s promise is illustrated via its application to a constrained use-case focused on the elderly. Twelve proof-of-concept demonstrators are developed based on key parameters pertaining to Indoor Environmental Quality and Quality of Life. While each demonstrator is presented as a discrete proof-of-concept, all build on the same core System Architecture and technological ecosystem, and are intended to be viewed as a collection of systems and services expressed within a same hypothetical environment.

The Potential of Small, Low- Carbon, Zero- Energy Housing
Authors: Souaid Cynthia
Published: March 2024

This thesis examines the potential of small, low-carbon, (near) zero-energy dwellings as a solution that would both address sustainability challenges and answer to the growing housing shortage in North-West Europe. It adopts a multidimensional outlook that encompasses institutional, social and technical aspects surrounding the dwellings. The institutional aspect is addressed through an investigation of financial, legislative, technical and cultural barriers to the implementation and uptake of small, low-carbon, zero-energy dwellings. A context specific approach is adopted taking into account contextual peculiarities for the formulation of more refined policy suggestions. The social dimension is addressed first from the perspective of market supply through an investigation of the perceptions of housing professionals. The distinction between perceived versus actual barriers identified by housing professionals is made highlighting a potential dyssynchronisation between policy developments and local practice. Accordingly the study calls for innovation in information dissemination between policy and local practice and between housing professionals themselves. The social dimension is then addressed from the perspective of market demand through an investigation of consumers’ current housing preferences. The assumption stating that, due to an increase in smaller, elderly, and lowerincome households, current housing preferences are leaning towards smaller dwellings is refuted underlining the importance of distinguishing between smallest and smaller dwelling sizes. Lastly, the technical dimension is addressed through conducting a partial life cycle assessment that focuses on the embodied carbon of the dwellings. Both downsizing and the use of low-carbon materials such as timber are investigated as embodied carbon reduction strategies. Together, the three dimensions provide a holistic evaluation of the potential of small, low-carbon, zero-energy dwellings as a solution while addressing the complexity in reaching sustainable outcomes.

Power and Distribution in Global Health Governance
Authors: von Achenbach Jelena
Published: March 2024

Since at least the 1980s, private actors and market-based mechanisms have played an increasingly important role in the provision of public goods and services and the pursuit of public policy objectives in general. A market approach is also widely used in the field of public health. In effect, the PPP approach, as illustrated by COVAX, can work to structurally protect the interests of (a majority) of the high-income countries. While PPPs in global health may do a lot of good things, their private law, contractualist nature and structures safeguard formal state sovereignty and voluntarism, predominantly benefitting high-income donor countries
Notes on Freud’s references to Schopenhauer: Trieb and Wille
Authors: Brasiliense dos Santos Brito Aline
Published: March 2024

This article aims to present and analyze Freud’s references to Schopenhauer about the concept of Trieb. Freud always keeps the reticent relationship with philosophy, above all, in terms of texts references, what is justified for his worry in assigning psychoanalysis a founding field (ASSOUN, 1978). Although, there are numberless philosophical references. In relation to Schopenhauer, it is carried specifically in Beyond the pleasure principle (1920), with regard to the concept of Trieb, to which Freud liken the Schopenhauerian will (Wille) and the duality present in it. Will (Wille) refers to the Kantian thing-in-itself, but far from being a transcendent reason, it inaugurates a philosophy of immanence, where the body and sexuality gain primordial relevance that will be taken up again by Freud’s psychoanalysis as a main field of study.

Published: March 2024

This article proposes a framework to promote continuous quality improvement in higher education by bringing performance management and quality assurance together in a single approach. Blending the two systems eliminates the challenges of a two system approach. The study employed a quantitative methodology, with data collected by means of a closed-ended questionnaire administered to academic and administrative staff at four purposely selected public higher education institutions in Zimbabwe’s four major ethnic regions. The questionnaire drew insights from a framework developed by Silimperi et al. (2002) on essential elements for developing quality assurance systems. Fourteen elements were used to determine the possibility of blending the two systems. Of these, nine had a mean score of 4.0, three above 3.5 and two had a mean score of less than 3.5. These results indicate a high likelihood that the systems can be blended.

Among the various diseases and nutritional problems that young children are susceptible to, one of them is Stunting. The National Movement to accelerate nutritional improvements or more commonly known as the First 1000 Days of Life (HPK) Movement is a global movement as an effort to prevent malnutrition. The purpose of this article is to provide information and understanding about the need for prevention and early intervention. The research results show that the 1000 HPK Program implemented in Indonesia has played a very big role in reducing stunting, where the stunting rate in Indonesia was initially at 24.4% in 2021 and decreased to 21.6% in 2023 (Kemenkes. 2023 ). This research uses a qualitative method with a literature.

This writing aims to overcome time management problems experienced by students. This paper applies group counseling services with a behavioral approach that aims to change the behavior of students who initially still apply poor time management in their daily lives to become individuals who can apply better time management in their daily lives or be more disciplined. The provision of counseling services was attended by seven group members. Service delivery lasts for approximately one week. Service delivery is divided into three stages, namely the initial stage of identifying the problems experienced by the counselee, the second stage of the counselor explaining the strategies that can be carried out in consultation, and the third stage of the counselee is asked to apply the strategies that have been agreed upon during consultation, the final stage of this activity is the provision of outcome evaluation and process evaluation which aims to measure whether the counselee has changed in time management.

Taller hubs and longer blades make wind turbines more practical and economical than their predecessors because they lower the energy production cost per unit. Nonetheless, these buildings stand out more in the environment because of their larger scale. As wind turbine exposure increases, communities become more concerned about the environment and economy. Thus, a conflict arises between the benefits of increased visibility and reduced wind energy prices as wind turbines become bigger. Most MCDM applications emphasize the significance of wind turbine visibility, which they define as the separation from populated areas, coastal regions, etc. The increased distance from a possible turbine location lessens the influence of visibility, or vice versa. This supposition contributes to the MCDM's visible effects in part. On the other hand, determining visibility may provide more accurate and practical geographic data to be used as a determining factor. This study used an MCDM methodology to show the relationships between wind turbine criteria. The DEMATEL method is an MCDM method used to show wind turbine weights. The DEMATEL method shows the relationships between criteria. There are 12 criteria used in this study. The DEMATEL method was integrated with the single-valued neutrosophic set (SVNS) to overcome uncertainty in the evaluation process.

Published: March 2024

Strategic decision-making in Ecuadorian business management is subject to multifaceted complexity, marked by variability in the influence of internal and external factors. Under a neutrosophic approach, the indeterminacies surrounding these processes are explored, with the overall goal of assessing strategic decision-making for inclusion in the dynamic business environment. The results indicate the necessity of recognizing and incorporating indeterminacies into the changing dynamics of business activity. The conclusions underscore the need for adaptable and resilient strategies that adjust to the variability in the influence of internal and external factors in business management.
AS FERRAMENTAS DA NOVA LEI DE LICITAÇÕES E CONTRATOS (14.133/2021) PARA EVITAR A INADIMPLÊNCIA DAS OBRIGAÇÕES TRABALHISTAS NOS CONTRATOS DE TERCEIRIZAÇÃO NA ADMINISTRAÇÃO PÚBLICA

A terceirização é uma realidade inexorável na Administração Pública. O grande percalço da terceirização na Administração Pública chama-se inadimplência das verbas trabalhistas. Se a empresa terceirizada não arcar com os créditos trabalhistas dos empregados, a Administração Pública, como tomadora dos serviços, pode ser responsabilizada subsidiariamente, caso haja falha na fiscalização do contrato administrativo. Ou seja, o ente público paga dobrado. Por sua vez, o empregado terceirizado, indubitavelmente o vértice mais frágil nessa relação triangular, recebe suas verbas trabalhistas (quando possui êxito) por meio de um processo judicial demorado, via precatório ou requisição de pequeno valor, e ainda com desconto dos honorários advocatícios. Há também a possibilidade de a sociedade ser prejudicada com a interrupção do serviço público. Enfim, trata-se do pior cenário possível. Destarte, com o escopo de evitar esse panorama trágico, a nova Lei de Licitações e Contratos Administrativos (14.133/2021) apresenta um amplo conjunto de ferramentas para aprimorar a fiscalização dos contratos de terceirização na Administração Pública. Apresentar e analisar esses novos instrumentos da Lei nº 14.133/2021, que buscam evitar a inadimplência das obrigações trabalhistas nos contratos de terceirização na administração pública, é o objetivo geral deste artigo, que se utilizou do método dedutivo-bibliográfico para a elaboração.
