The Structure of Genji’s Career
Authors: Tyler Royall 
Published: May 2019

Abstract
The hero of The Tale of Genji is famous or infamous above all as a lover and a seductive master of the courtly arts. The political aspects of his career are not as well recognized, perhaps because they are often difficult to distinguish from his love interests. One goal of this essay is to disentangle in Genji’s case political or personal advantage from erotic enterprise. A second goal is to show that Genji’s overt career follows a political (for want of a better word) trajectory that gives his story an underlying form distinct from simple acknowledgment of passing time. The main issues are the imperial succession, acquisition of decisive influence at court, and hierarchically advantageous marriage. Genji’s trajectory follows the rise of a man who comes against the odds to dominate his world, then overreaches himself and loses all that he holds most dear. Having been forced by external circumstance to favor his lackluster first son (Suzaku) publicly, the Kiritsubo Emperor does all he can to favor his brilliant second son (Genji) privately. Feeling cheated of the honor to which his gifts and his father’s favor should have destined him, Genji maneuvers successfully to overcome those who forced him into this position. Out of pride he then takes a gratuitous step that estranges him from his beloved Murasaki and, by the way, crushes his unfortunate brother. When last seen, he is only the shell of a once great man.
Murasaki’s “Mind Ground”
Authors: McCormick Melissa 
Published: May 2019

AbstractOver the course of its reception history, The Tale of Genji was viewed by many readers and commentators as a Buddhist text relevant to issues of morality and ethics, but also metaphysical questions about the nature of truth, perception of the phenomenal world, and the phenomenal world’s relationship to language. Numerous Genji commentaries promoted the idea that the Tendai Buddhist notion of nonduality formed an underlying structural component of the tale. Writers based this idea on the belief that the Genji’s author, Murasaki Shikibu, had mastered a system of meditation put forth in The Great Calming and Contemplation (Ch. Mohe zhiguan, J. Makashikan) by the sixth-century founder of Tien-t’ai in China, Zhiyi (538–597). This essay examines the commentaries as well as a group of paintings produced alongside them as crucial evidence for the existence of a nascent philosophical theory of the novel. Taking seriously the ideas of historical readers who attempted to understand Genji holistically through the lens of Tendai philosophy may bring us closer to the intellectual foundations of the tale than previously imagined, adding another dimension to our understanding of the relationship between Buddhist philosophy and literature.
Prologue
Authors: Meisner Nadine 
Published: May 2019

Abstract
This chapter serves to set the scene, sketching out cultural Russia at the time of Petipa’s arrival in 1847. It gives a brief history of Russian ballet; it describes the different theatres and the imperial monopoly over them in Moscow and St Petersburg; it provides a glimpse of the process of Westernization and the reliance on foreign talent. Equally, it sets against this the manifestations of national consciousness, particularly during the Napoleonic War; and it covers the uniquely Russian phenomenon of serfdom and serf theatre. Finally, it summarizes the differences between the two capitals and the political and symbolic significance of the Imperial Ballet.
Ballet Wars Real and Imagined
Authors: Meisner Nadine 
Published: May 2019

Abstract
This chapter starts with the arrival of Arthur Saint-Léon as first ballet master and Petipa’s appointment as his deputy. It describes the warring ballet fans, the Petipists and Muravevists, and their respective ballerinas, Maria Petipa and Marfa Muraveva, along with the enduring dichotomy in ballet between technical brilliance and graceful expressiveness. The rivalry between Petipa and Saint-Léon was probably imaginary, but Petipa’s focus on near-exclusive foreign or fantastical subject was not, and was part of the recurring question of Russian versus Western themes in Russian art. The chapter ends with an account of the end of the Petipas’ marriage and a profile of Petipa’s daughter, Marie Petipa, a popular dancer in the Imperial Ballet.
Extended Cognition and Extended Consciousness
Authors: Chalmers David J. 
Published: May 2019

Abstract
Chapter 1 discusses two questions about the extended mind. First, what is the extended mind thesis? Second, can there be extended consciousness, and if not, why not? The chapter answers the first question by arguing that the thesis should be formulated in terms of perception and action: a subject’s cognitive processes and mental states can be partly constituted by entities that are external to the subject, in virtue of the subject’s interacting with these entities via perception and action. The second question is answered by appealing to direct availability for global control as the physical correlate of consciousness: extended processes always involve indirect availability for global control, mediated by perception and action, so there is no extended consciousness.
Supercharged Apes versus Super-Sized Minds
Authors: Barrett Louise 
Published: May 2019

Abstract
Clark’s philosophy brings body, brain, and world together again, offering a new conception of both human and nonhuman cognition. This chapter agrees that the predictive processing framework provides our best bet for a species-neutral cognitive science. However, the use of cognitivist, representational language often seems unnecessary, especially when J. J. Gibson introduced a “resonance” metaphor to replace notions of representation, hypothesis, and inference. This chapter is therefore interested to know why Clark resists embracing Gibson, when this seems one of the best ways to embrace evolutionary continuity. The chapter also raises the apparent tension between the predictive processing position and that of the extended mind: Is the brain the principal seat of information-processing activity? Or is it userless tools all the way down? Finally, the chapter raises the issue of epistemic artefacts, and whether these increase or decrease cognitive load.
The Naval Schools and Peter I’s Grand Regulations, 1710s–1730s
Authors: Fedyukin Igor 
Published: May 2019

Abstract
Among our best sources for understanding Peter I’s own take on development of formal schools in Russia are the grand naval regulations, or reglaments, that he himself drafted and edited. A detailed reconstruction of Peter’s personal contribution to the relevant passages in these documents demonstrates that the tsar focused almost exclusively on practical training of naval officers and on prescribing their modes of service. By contrast, he did not feel a need to comprehensively regulate the operations of schools and their curricula, or to codify and delineate the duties of the teachers and administrators. In the absence of a drive to regulate on the ruler’s part, the rationalization and formalization of schooling was often animated by the pragmatic concerns of individual officials and teachers, such as Leontii Magnitskii, the teacher of mathematics and later the head of the Navigation School. These enterprisers drafted regulations and requested instructions from their superiors insofar as it helped them to define and protect their status or to shield themselves from potential blame.
Introduction
Authors: Kieffer Alexandra 
Published: May 2019

Abstract
A reception history of Debussy’s music in the years after the 1902 premiere of Pelléas et Mélisande reveals the many interconnections between musical culture and early-twentieth-century intellectual culture in Paris, including recent developments in the human sciences, and can reorient the broader narrative of musical culture in this period away from comparisons to Symbolist poetry and Impressionist painting. This reception history likewise invites a reconsideration of musical experience in musicological scholarship and its relationship to hermeneutics, offering an alternative to the tendency in recent accounts of aesthetic experience to reify a problematic dualism between live, ephemeral “presence” and the inert historical artifact.
Laloy
Authors: Kieffer Alexandra 
Published: May 2019

Abstract
Louis Laloy, a close friend of Debussy and, along with Jean Marnold, one of his most prolific defenders in the Parisian press, drew from a wide range of intellectual influences in his writing on Debussy, intertwining his account of Debussy’s innovations with interests in musical archaism and exoticism. Like that of Marnold, Laloy’s writing engaged with recent ideas from the human sciences involving acoustics, sensory physiology, psychology, and affective experience; like Marnold, Laloy continually wrestled with questions of historical and cultural difference in his account of Debussy’s music. However, Laloy approached these questions very differently, shrouding Debussy’s music in a mystical haze that served as a rebuke to reductive scientific theorizing—even as Laloy’s account of Debussy had been uniquely enabled by the scientific discourse that was ostensibly under critique.
Significance Quest Theory of Radicalization
Authors: Kruglanski Arie W. , Bélanger Jocelyn J. , Gunaratna Rohan 
Published: May 2019

Abstract
This chapter proposes the 3N theory of radicalization, which happens as a result of three elements coming together: the individuals’ needs, the narrative to which they are exposed, and the networks in which they are embedded. The first N, the need element, pertains to individuals’ quest for personal significance—the desire to matter and to have respect. The second N is the (ideological) narrative to which individuals are exposed and that essentially identifies the means to the end of significance; this is portrayed as extreme violence against perceived enemies of one’s group, which lends the status of heroes and martyrs to individuals who joined the fight. The third N is the social network in which individuals are embedded and that validates the means–ends relations between violence and significance as well as dispenses status and veneration to individuals who implement the ideological injunctions and commit the requisite violence.
Evolution of Cognitive Archaeology through Evolving Cognitive Systems
Authors: Davidson Iain 
Published: May 2019

Abstract
Tom Wynn’s original work that looked at the evolution of stone tool technology using Piaget’s developmental sequence was the beginning of productive research into the evolution of hominin and human cognition. In this chapter, I evaluate those beginnings and discusses recent attempts to provide a more satisfactory understanding of changes in stone tool technologies, including work by Philip Barnard and William McGrew, subsequent work by Tom Wynn, and my own work with various collaborators. It suggests that some of the previous understandings of cognitive evolution were shaped by the fact that approaches to stone tools were largely determined in the nineteenth century. I propose some new ways of looking at stone tools and the sort of story that allows for more productive models of the evolution of human cognition.
Early Convergent Cultural Evolution
Authors: Sharon Gonen 
Published: May 2019

Abstract
Convergent evolution is the independent evolution of similar traits in different species, resulting from adaptation to separate ecosystems. Two Acheulean giant core methods, discussed in this chapter, illustrate this mechanism in an early stage of human cultural evolution. Victoria West core method was used only in central South Africa, while the Tabelbala-Tachenghit method is confined to the Western Sahara Desert of North Africa. Although the Victoria West and Tabelbala-Tachenghit core methods differ to a degree in their technological character and in the morphology of their resulting products, they bear great resemblance. These core methods were decidedly similar solutions to the same needs experienced by different groups of Acheulean large flake makers. The fact that core methods closely resembling one another in technology and design were developed by different Acheulean populations in remote and disconnected geographical regions provides us with a very early example of convergent cultural evolution.
Cultural Transmission from the Last Common Ancestor to the Levallois Reducers
Authors: Lycett Stephen J. 
Published: May 2019

Abstract
Given the gap between ape and human cultural capacities, the question of what we can infer about evolving cultural capacities during the course of human evolution presents itself. Tom Wynn has stressed the importance of a comparative (cross-species) approach and the idea of inferring only the minimal capacities required to explain archaeological phenomena in cognitive terms. In this chapter, these principles are applied to infer what can reasonably be determined about cultural transmission capacities in extinct hominins from the last common ancestor to the producers of Levallois. Although much remains to be learned, and a provisional model must caution against false negatives and false positive attributions, the approach yields reasonable inferences regarding our evolving cultural capacities over the long stretch of time from the end of the Miocene through to the later Middle Pleistocene. This situation also leads to a position where possible avenues of future enquiry might usefully be identified.
The Evolution of Social Transmission in the Acheulean
Authors: Shipton Ceri 
Published: May 2019

Abstract
Human social transmission is unrivalled in its precision and complexity. High-fidelity social transmission ensures each generation does not have to reinvent the wheel, while the sharing of knowledge and skills enables the extraordinary feats of technology and artistry. This chapter explores the evolutionary foundations of our high-fidelity social transmission during the Acheulean period. Archaeological evidence is presented for the trait of over-imitation: the tendency of humans to copy all purposeful actions when imitating, regardless of whether they are causally opaque, or even redundant. By the Late Acheulean, the causal opacity and physical subtlety of some knapping actions were such that they were likely difficult to transmit without some form of verbal teaching. Despite high-fidelity social transmission, cumulative culture does not seem to have begun building up in earnest during the Acheulean, perhaps because Acheulean hominins did not share our cognitive capacities for hierarchical organization, recursion, and generativity.
Ensnaring the Mind
Authors: Wadley Lyn 
Published: May 2019

Abstract
Apart from their economic implications, snares and traps embody far-reaching implications for the cognition of people using them, as discussed in this chapter. They rely on unseen action, obliging the hunter to imagine the remote-capture scenario. Furthermore, the hunter must strategize before the deed and then be content with delayed gratification. Only minds like our own can plan unseen action that involves delayed gratification. Consequently, when snares and traps first appeared, we have clear evidence of people who behaved and thought like us. The archaeologist’s dilemma is that the remains of snares and traps are elusive. Circumstantial evidence must therefore be sought—for example, the presence of species that may have been caught accidentally in snares. At Sibudu, in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa, mongoose remains seem to provide such evidence.
Nationalizing Sex
Authors: Togman Richard 
Published: May 2019

Abstract
Over the past three hundred years there have been countless attempts by governments of all types to control fertility and reproduction. Currently, more than 170 countries representing over 85 percent of humanity are actively trying to engineer how many children a person will have. Democratic, authoritarian, religious, secular, Western, Eastern, and African states have all tried with little success to control individual fertility decisions. This presents a series of interesting puzzles. Why do governments want to control childbearing decisions? What are they trying to achieve? Moreover, almost all attempts to control fertility have failed. Policies rarely, if ever, achieve government objectives. Accordingly, why do policies so routinely fail? Why do governments of all shapes and sizes continue to create policies that have a robust record of failure? What accounts for such unusual cross-national trends in government attempts to instill a sexual duty to the state? This book fills the gap by analyzing the origins, growth, and development of fertility as a national and international political issue; the rise and fall of the discourses used to ascribe meaning to natality; and the global proliferation of isomorphic policies adopted by widely dissimilar states. It proposes an explanation for the widespread failure of hundreds of years of policy.
Socialism in the Bedroom
Authors: Togman Richard 
Published: May 2019

Abstract
Chapter 8 seeks to explain the evolution of postwar natalist thought in the Soviet Union and its Eastern European allies. While its approach to the developing world came to mirror many aspects of the Western approach to population politics in the Third World, the Soviet Union began to pioneer a new understanding of fertility for developed world populations and gave birth to a new neo-mercantilist discourse on fertility. Perceiving threats stemming from an aging population, a declining labor force, growing obligations to elderly populations, and ethnic others, notably Islamic peoples, the Soviets began to reintegrate pro-natalist policies into the core of state policy. Tracing how this new discourse spread from its home in academic journals to state policy, this chapter demonstrates how government came to reinhabit the wombs of the people by positing a direct relationship between threats to the health of the state and the fertility of the people.
Babies Hurt Development, Except When We’re Modern (Developing World 1980–Present)
Authors: Togman Richard 
Published: May 2019

Abstract
Chapter 10 traces the dramatic and sustained burst in anti-natalist activity within the developing world over the last forty years. Between 1976 and 2011 the number of least-developed states that expressed a need to reduce the fertility of their citizens leapt from 31 to 92 percent. This chapter explores the many mechanisms the population giants of the developing world have used to try to control the procreative practices of their citizens and craft policies believed to best address the common problems of underdevelopment, poverty, and state weakness. Moreover, counterfactual cases, such as the Palestinians, are explored to highlight the discursive, nonobjective nature of state reactions to demographic realities. This chapter adds to the debate concerning the merits and boundaries of efforts to shape the reproductive outcomes of millions of individuals living in the global South.
Conclusion
Authors: Togman Richard 
Published: May 2019

Abstract
Chapter 11 concludes the book and reflects on the lessons that can be learned from a holistic overview of the past three hundred years of governments’ attempts to manipulate the fertility of their populations. Reiterating the fundamentally discursive nature of the meaning of birth, fertility, and population growth to our societies allows for reflective insight into the nature of state attempts to manipulate the decision by millions of individuals about whether to reproduce. The global comparative perspective in both time and space, the identification and typologization of the five main discursive frames, and the rooting of the analysis in the discursive terrain allow the major questions of who, what, when, where, and why regarding government efforts to control the reproductive powers of the population and the creation of a sexual duty to the state to be answered.
Gamblers and Gentlefolk
Authors: Lacey Nicola 
Published: May 2019

Abstract
This essay examines the wide range of conceptions of money and its legal and social significance in the novels of Anthony Trollope—a writer whose nostalgia for the world of land sits alongside an increasingly sharp critique of the power of money—considering what his novels can tell us about the rapidly changing economic, political, and social world of mid-Victorian England. The essay concentrates in particular on Orley Farm (1861–2)—the novel most directly concerned with law among Trollope’s formidable output—and The Way We Live Now (1875)—the novel most directly concerned with the use and abuse of money in the early world of financial capitalism.
Kohlberg’s Theory
Authors: Gibbs John C. 
Published: May 2019

Abstract
Given this cognitive-developmental concern with superficiality-to-depth in moral judgment or understanding, Kohlberg was particularly concerned to discover and articulate an age trend and possible sequence of developmental advances or stages that may be universal. Our critique of Kohlberg’s theory notes that, although his specific stage typology was misguided, he almost single-handedly put cognitive moral development on the map of American psychology. He encouraged attention to the continued development of moral judgment beyond the childhood years. Finally, he speculated from case studies of mature moral thinkers in existential crisis that there may be a deeper reality (“cosmic perspective”), one that underlies profound moral perception and can support the moral life. Building from Kohlberg’s and others’ contributions, we propose in this chapter a new view of life-span sociomoral development.
Treating Antisocial Behavior
Authors: Gibbs John C. 
Published: May 2019

Abstract
If multiple limitations contribute to antisocial behavior, then an adequate treatment program must be correspondingly multi-componential. Adequate social perspective-taking—perspective-taking that is profound or mature; rationalization-busting, adequately informed, and hence discerning; reciprocally ideal and balanced; and socially expansive or inclusive—should be a basic theme pervasive across the components of any effective treatment program. This chapter focuses on a multicomponent treatment program that incorporates a wide variety of social perspective-taking opportunities pertaining to the remediation of moral developmental delay, social cognitive distortions, and social skill deficiencies, namely, the EQUIP program. High-fidelity implementations of EQUIP can stimulate a positive synergy through EQUIP’s integration of mutual help (motivation, culture) and cognitive behavioral (curriculum) approaches. Chapter 8 concludes with a discussion of adaptations and outcome evaluations, and illustrates social perspective-taking treatments available for severe offenders.
Conclusion
Authors: Gibbs John C. 
Published: May 2019

Abstract
The final chapter concludes our use of Kohlberg’s, Hoffman’s, and Haidt’s theories to ponder the moral domain and explore growth beyond the superficial in morality. We recap our critique of Haidt’s theory. We culminate our argument for a coprimacy in moral motivation by relating Kohlberg’s and Hoffman’s theories to motivationally and qualitatively distinct categories of knowledge (logico-mathematical, empirical). We relate logical-moral ideals to an analysis of adaptation and evolution (Piaget, Singer) that is less reductionistic than the pragmatic version offered by Haidt and others. We conclude with some final thoughts on moral development, perception, and behavior vis-à-vis a deeper reality of human connection.
