Socially Undocumented
Authors: Reed-Sandoval Amy 
Published: January 2020

Abstract
What does it really mean to “be undocumented,” particularly in the contemporary United States? Political philosophers, policymakers and others often define the term “undocumented migrant” legalistically—that is, in terms of lacking legal authorization to live and work in one’s current country of residence. Socially Undocumented: Identity and Immigration Justice challenges such a pure “legalistic understanding” by arguing that being undocumented should not always be conceptualized along such lines. To be socially undocumented, it argues, is to possess a real, visible, and embodied social identity that does not always track one’s actual legal status in the United States. By integrating a descriptive/phenomenological account of socially undocumented identity with a normative/political account of how the oppression with which it is associated ought to be dealt with as a matter of social justice, this book offers a new vision of immigration ethics. It addresses concrete ethical challenges associated with immigration, such as the question of whether open borders are morally required, the militarization of the Mexico-U.S. border, the perilous journey that many Mexican and Central American migrants undertake to get to the United States, the difficult experiences of many socially undocumented women who cross U.S. borders to seek prenatal care while pregnant, and more.
Pregnant and Socially Undocumented
Authors: Reed-Sandoval Amy 
Published: January 2020

Abstract
This chapter employs the tools of ethnography and philosophical analysis to develop a descriptive account of female, socially undocumented embodiment. It explores the first-person narratives of “pregnant border-crossings” offered in ethnographic interviews conducted with many Mexican women who, while living in Mexico, crossed the Mexico-U.S. border to seek prenatal care and give birth in the United States, thereby securing U.S. citizenship for their children. It argues that for pregnant, socially undocumented people, the embodied, class-based elements of socially undocumented identity are particularly (and perhaps even inescapably) pronounced. For even a pregnant, middle-class, socially undocumented body seems indicative of what Bourdieu described as laisser aller—“letting oneself go”—causing pregnant, middle-class socially undocumented women to be “read” by immigration enforcement as belonging to a lower class-bracket. Thus, it is argued that the pregnant, socially undocumented women may be the most “illegalized” of all socially undocumented subjects in the United States.
Lost Voices
Authors: Meizel Katherine 
Published: January 2020

Abstract
Chapter 8 discusses the implications of voice loss. The experience of loss when a professional singing voice is disrupted is entangled not only in the expressive and embodied nature of vocality but also in neoliberalism, in which labor and its value are understood as core components of identity. In a neoliberally grounded music industry, losing a voice can feel like losing one’s value, and like a devastating loss of identity. The chapter focuses on the idea of voice loss as a personal loss of control, through trauma, disability, or illness, and examines the ways in which individual singers negotiate that loss. The author also discusses experiences of chronic illness, including her own, and other singers’ experiences of loss that have impacted their voices.
Should the Mathematical Fictionalist Be a Moral Fictionalist, Too?
Authors: Leng Mary 
Published: January 2020

Abstract
On the face of it, the same motivations that lead some philosophers to adopt mathematical fictionalism seem also to push in the direction of moral fictionalism. In particular, to the extent that mathematical fictionalists are motivated by epistemological concerns about our ability to know truths about abstract mathematical objects, one might expect them to be similarly worried about our ability to know “queer” moral facts. However, the author argues that existing versions of moral fictionalism fare less well than existing versions of mathematical fictionalism in answering two key questions for fictionalists about a domain D, (1) what is it that the D-discourse is being used to do, and (2) why should we expect D-talk to be useful in this way if we do not believe our D-claims to be true? The author closes by presenting considerations that suggest that the combination of mathematical fictionalism with moral realism might be motivated on naturalist grounds.
Folk Stories
Authors: Bourne Craig , Caddick Bourne Emily 
Published: January 2020

Abstract
Close attention to the nature of fiction reveals a number of issues which bear on mental fictionalism, here understood as a view that proposes a fictionalist treatment of folk psychology. After sketching a few such issues, the chapter unearths difficulties for a figurative fictionalist approach, concentrating on Adam Toon’s recent attempt to understand folk psychology in terms of Kendall Walton’s notion of prop-oriented make-believe and its relationship to metaphor. But while attention to the nature of fiction creates obstacles for those sympathetic to mental fictionalism, it also suggests opportunities. Utilizing a distinction between being true in a fiction and being true to a story, the chapter sketches the beginnings of a brand of mental “storyism” that departs from mental fictionalism but may do justice to some fictionalist ambitions. Finally, it is suggested that attention to the nature of fiction offers a potential new solution to the so-called “fictionalist suicide” problem.
Weibo of China
Authors: Sun Huatong 
Published: January 2020

Abstract
This chapter studies the design case of Weibo from China and explores how a local social media service, which at first was regarded as a copycat of a Silicon Valley technology, arose in the Chinese social media market and beat its Western competitor on Wall Street with its culturally sensitive design features. It reviews Weibo’s two stages of development to explore the complicacy of technology design and the dynamic and dialogical structuring process behind the formation of a technological genre for microblogging. Through the case, it unpacks three sensitizing concepts of the culturally localized user engagement and empowerment (CLUE2) framework for coming up with empowering global designs: a genre of technology as normative and performative practice, a dialogic model of communication, and hybridity as creative mixing for empowerment. Together they outline a pathway to connect the macro and the micro in cross-cultural design: A rhetorical genre view helps us to see how a culturally sustaining technology functions as a technological genre, instantiating both normative and performative practice as local uptakes. The local uptake develops and evolves by following a dialogic model of communication in design practices to generate new meanings and produce new practices, and it forms through the process of hybridization as a creative mixing for agency. Various local uptakes make up an open, globally networked technology assemblage with dialogic relations flowing between.
Alien Experience
Authors: Tumulty Maura 
Published: January 2020

Abstract
If I were a better human being, that person’s voice wouldn’t sound so shrill to me. Many of us may have had such thoughts. They give voice to the worrying intuition that if we were less affected by sexism and racism, or better at keeping our tempers, our fellow humans would look and sound differently to us. Alien Experience argues that we should take this sense of unease seriously. It is as philosophically significant as our unease over desires or fears that we disown. Making sense of this unease requires us to re-think the relation between experiences and standing commitments; to re-consider what we mean by self-control; and to attend to empirical questions about perception, attention, and tacit cognition. Alien Experience contests the assumption that while we may be answerable (morally, ethically, legally) for our attitudes and emotions, we are not answerable, at least not in any interesting way, for our perceptions and sensations. That assumption is threaded through debates in the philosophy of mind, moral psychology, and ethics, but it leads to a flattened view of the ways experiences are related to agency. Recognizing that we in fact can be alienated from our experiences leads us to a more nuanced view of agency, and helps us appreciate distinctive opportunities for self-improvement.
Paths to Alienation
Authors: Tumulty Maura 
Published: January 2020

Abstract
We can feel alienated from a perception of another person when we suspect we are somehow failing to perceive that person properly. The connection of alienation to moral self-reproach is easy to see in such cases. But it is also possible to be alienated from experiences of non-human targets, such as buildings or natural landscapes. And it turns out moral self-reproach plays a role in those cases, too. Exploring experiences of non-human targets helps reveal how we can be alienated from experiences in which we aren’t, strictly speaking, misperceiving the target of our experience at all. It also helps clarify the role of distinctively moral self-reproach, as against self-reproach of other types, in driving alienation.
Ambedkar on Political Humility and Challenging Political Arrogance
Authors: Cabrera Luis 
Published: January 2020

Abstract
This chapter situates an initial presentation of humility and arrogance in the context of Ambedkar’s lifelong struggle against the “arrogance and selfishness” of a caste system. It contrasts Gandhi’s calls for the mostly voluntary abolition of practices of untouchability with Ambedkar’s institutional emphasis. Ambedkar sought the establishment of relatively strongly empowered democratic institutions affirming political equality for all persons, and electoral and other reservations for deeply excluded groups such as Dalits. Some recent psychological and philosophical literature is surveyed on personal and political humility, with the latter understood as an acknowledgment of the equal standing of others within political institutions, openness to input and challenge from them, and an intellectual modesty about the finality of one’s own views or judgments. Ambedkar’s own evolving conceptions of political humility are then presented, in ideals of fraternity, Deweyan social endosmosis, and the Buddhist maitri.
Public Ignorance and Democratic Technocracy
Authors: Friedman Jeffrey 
Published: January 2020

Abstract
It is usually thought that the “typical voter’s” well-documented ignorance of public affairs is explained by the low incentive to inform oneself about them, given the high odds against one’s vote making a difference. This theory cannot withstand either logical or empirical scrutiny. A better theory is that citizen-technocrats are unaware that they need much information if they are to make intelligent technocratic decisions, due to a tacit acceptance of a simple-society ontology—according to which social problems are straightforwardly diagnosed and solved by people with good intentions. A politics organized around good intentions, however, is unlikely to recognize unintended consequences, let alone prioritize knowledge of them. The upshot of this chapter, then, in conjunction with Chapter 5, is that we face a Hobson’s choice between rule by well-informed but doctrinaire epistocrats and rule by open-minded but ignorant citizen-technocrats.
Landscape, Feasting, and Ancestors in the Burial Tradition of Mycenaean Rhodes
Authors: Georgiadis Mercourios 
Published: January 2020

Abstract
The number and character of the Mycenaean cemeteries found on Rhodes have allowed a thorough analysis of its burial tradition. The chamber tombs and their contents seem to have been canonical Mycenaean according to the Greek mainland examples, but recent research has highlighted significant regional idiosyncrasies. There is a symbolic interrelation between the tombs’ orientation and the surrounding landscape, which was a regional phenomenon. Furthermore, within the cemeteries the secondary burials appear to be very common and often the dominant practice. In this context the offerings in the tombs are of particular interest since they diverge from others in mainland Greece. The preference for drinking and eating vessels reveals a symbolic role attributed to feasting in relation to the afterlife beliefs. This can be combined with the role of the landscape and the secondary burial tradition within the Rhodian funerary framework. Feasting seems to be symbolically linked through ritual acts in the process of turning the deceased to an anonymous ancestor. The current analysis will trace the messages transmitted through this practice for the afterlife beliefs as much as for the sociopolitical conditions of this period on the island. Hence, a better understanding of the idiosyncratic funerary tradition and the development of the regional character of Mycenaean Rhodes will be demonstrated.
Middle Minoan III—Late Minoan IIIB Tombs and Funerary Practices in South-Central Crete
Authors: Girella Luca 
Published: January 2020

Abstract
This chapter explores the funerary data of South-Central Crete, with particular consideration of Western Mesara, in the Neopalatial, Final, and early Postpalatial period (16th–13th century bc). Previous studies have focused mostly on tomb types and categories of funerary artifacts, while there has been a lack of a broader analysis that explores aspects of mortuary data at different temporal levels. By drawing together the evidence derived from tombs architecture, burial assemblages, and cemeteries distribution, this chapter aims to reconstruct the cultural and political changes that occurred in this part of the island during the period corresponding to the ceramic phases LM I to LM IIIB. In particular, the transformation during the constitution of the second Palatial period and the marginal role of funerary rituals, the introduction of mainland-derived mortuary symbolisms during the hegemony of Knossos, and the decline of mortuary ostentation after the collapse of Knossian power are discussed.
Debating the Nature of the Young Republic in Song
Authors: Lohman Laura 
Published: January 2020

Abstract
Americans used music to disseminate competing concepts of republicanism during Washington’s second term as president. As the unfolding French Revolution accelerated Americans’ engagement with the debate over aristocracy versus equality, Americans increasingly choose the medium of music to voice their political opposition. While Federalists perceived democracy as something to be curtailed, their emerging Republican opponents advocated active public participation in politics and “universal principles” of liberty and equality. Republicans challenged the Federalists’ fundamental premise that the people must defer to the wisdom of elected officials drawn from the elite. In song, Americans voiced their political opposition through a cosmopolitan language of natural rights inspired by Thomas Paine and resisted growing British influence. Federalists launched a counterattack by connecting Republican opposition to unlawful, violent rebellion.
Conclusion
Authors: Lohman Laura 
Published: January 2020

Abstract
This conclusion traces how early American political music was used throughout the nineteenth century. While political music in the early nation was often ephemeral, some of it proved surprisingly durable. Not only were songs from the early national period still performed, printed, and compiled in the following decades, but their melodies were used to carry new lyrics responding to later political developments. At times, early American political music was adapted and repurposed for sectional and election purposes. Focusing on the example of Joseph Hopkinson’s “Hail Columbia,” this conclusion highlights how political music created in the early American republic was circulated in song collections, performed on varied occasions, and used to create new music through the end of the nineteenth century.
The Global Politics of Maternality
Authors: Weissman Anna L. , Hall Lucy B. 
Published: January 2020

Abstract
This chapter emphasizes that motherhood matters in global politics. Beginning from the position that the institution of motherhood is complicated and constructed in diverse ways across diverse settings, the chapter traces the work and influence of feminist contributions to the theorizing of motherhood and maternity to explore the ways in which practices of global politics shape and are shaped by the institution of motherhood. Calling attention to the increasing and at times deadly infringements on women’s reproductive rights across the globe, the chapter explains the role of reproduction as central to the site of maternity and motherhood, negotiating the relationship between women, reproductive bodies, and the state, and how the gendered logics of war frequently rely on maternal imagery, discourse, and representation. The chapter concludes with a description of the volume’s three sections and individual chapter contributions.
Celebrity Global Motherhood
Authors: Bergman Rosamond Annika 
Published: January 2020

Abstract
This chapter centers on global motherhood, a conceptual label that defines the ethical underpinnings of female celebrities’ undertakings beyond borders. The analysis of global motherhood is located within the ethics of care, noting that global expressions of care ethics are useful for thinking through celebrities’ maternal practices beyond borders. The research focuses on the maternal practices and discourses of Cate Blanchett (United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees [UNHCR] Goodwill Ambassador since 2016) and Angelina Jolie (UNHCR Special Envoy since 2012), in particular their tendency to relate to refugees through their personal experiences as mothers, their sense of cosmopolitan obligation, and the racial implications of their global engagements. The chapter advances the argument that cosmopolitan thought is abstract, is gendered, and prioritizes men’s moral reasoning rather than women’s ethical stories and experiences. Nonetheless, cosmopolitanism can provide fertile ground for studying celebrity humanitarianism because celebrities themselves resort to cosmopolitan-inflected language in describing their activism. Moreover, the study of the other-regarding acts of individual celebrities can reduce the abstraction inherent in cosmopolitanism. These arguments are sustained through a discursive analysis of texts that center on celebrity global motherhood, as performed by Angelina Jolie and Cate Blanchett in the area of refugee policy.
The Kleptocracy Kings
Authors: Gillies Alexandra 
Published: January 2020

Abstract
Chapter 4 traces into the umbilical tie between kleptocratic regimes and their oil and describes how the industry helps keep them alive. The leaders of Angola, Azerbaijan, and Russia used their booming oil industries to strengthen their political positions. Thanks to their long-term horizons and monopolies on power, they nurtured the oil sector while also strategically milking it for political and personal purposes. Above all else, they channeled the oil boom windfall toward their allies, making sure that the riches only fattened the pockets of oligarchs loyal to the regime.
The Parietal Lobes
Authors: Coolidge Frederick L. 
Published: January 2020

Abstract
This chapter discusses the parietal lobes, whose primary function is to gather and integrate sensory information to aid the motor cortex in appropriate movements. Damage to the parietal regions in humans often produces a type of agnosia, where patients misidentify their fingers or body parts. The parietal lobes may have expanded in Homo sapiens compared with Neandertals, and this expansion may have occurred within the last 100,000 years. The intraparietal sulcus has, among its many functions, numerosity, which is an appreciation of numbers. The IPS may have groups of neurons or even single neurons that respond to symbolic and nonsymbolic numbers. The supramarginal gyrus plays a major role in inner speech, phonological storage, and emotional processing. The angular gyrus plays a major role in mathematical operations and may serve an important role in 15 other higher cognitive functions. The precuneus is a critical region for episodic memory, Baddeley’s visuospatial sketchpad, and self- and other-representations. The posterior portion of the cingulate cortex is the retrosplenial cortex, which translates egocentric spatial and allocentric spatial viewpoints. This translational responsibility was critical in evolution of hominin navigation. The constructive simulation hypothesis proposes that the episodic memory system may have evolved not for perfect scenario recall but for the ability to manipulate past events for future successes. The parietal lobes are an important part of the default mode network of the brain. The default mode network is active when a human or nonhuman primate is resting and not engaged in a specific mental activity.
The Temporal Lobes
Authors: Coolidge Frederick L. 
Published: January 2020

Abstract
One of the major adaptations of the temporal lobes is the storage and application of meanings to sounds. With the evolution of primates and later hominins, the temporal lobes became exapted for protolanguage and, later, fully modern recursive language. Language evolved through natural selection for communication. This chapter presents the hypothesis that a recent beneficent genetic event increased working memory and phonological storage capacity, allowing the release of recursive phrasing, a prerequisite for use of the subjunctive mode. The evolution of language may have been influenced by gossip, which served to keep cheaters in check in larger social groups. Freud proposed that jokes may have arisen to relieve aggressive and sexual tensions, and others have proposed that incongruent jokes may have emerged to reduce the probability of being surprised. The evolution of humor may be related to creativity; humor production and receptivity differences have been demonstrated in men and women, which may be correlated to mating strategies.
Paleopsychopathology
Authors: Coolidge Frederick L. 
Published: January 2020

Abstract
Paleopsychopathology is the study of mental problems and mental diseases that may have increased relative fitness in the ancestral environment but do not enhance fitness in the present environment. Some present pathologies (like Huntington’s chorea) may not have had any adaptive value in the ancestral environment, as some genetic disorders’ onset occurred well after what would have been prime reproductive years in the ancestral environment. Some psychopathologies may not have been advantageous in and of themselves, but either their polygenic basis or proximity to important genes may have given rise to successful adaptive phenotypes. For example, the location for the genes for schizophrenia are associated with the coding for immunity genes and creativity. Some personality disorders may have been adaptive in the ancestral environment because of their benefits in navigating social hierarchies. The evolution of an array of emotions may have also benefitted successful navigation in social groups.
Opening the window
