Studies in Oriental culture and history

Festschrift for Walter Dostal

Diese Festschrift für den Ordinarius des Wiener Instituts für Völkerkunde, Univ. Prof. Dr. Walter Dostal, Mitglied der Österreichischen Akademie der Wissenschaften, umfaßt 17 wissenschaftliche Beiträge von Kollegen und Schülern aus Großbritannien, Frankreich, Belgien, Deutschland, Österreich, Rußland und dem Jemen. Darunter befinden sich Beiträge führender Fachgelehrter zur antiken Geschichte Südarabiens, zu sozio-religiösen Entwicklungen der islamischen Gesellschaften des Mittelalters und der Neuzeit und ethnologische Studien. In einem regionalen Querschnitt von Zentralasien bis zur Türkei und von Westafrika bis zur Arabischen Halbinsel werden exemplarisch jene Fragen untersucht, die auch das wissenschaftliche Werk Dostals prägen: Wie sind Weltbild, Sozialstruktur und Herrschaft orientalischer Kulturen miteinander verbunden? Welche kulturhistorischen Voraussetzungen greift der Islam auf?

Wir dürfen aber annehmen , daß der Islam nicht mehr als eine dünne Tünche über den alten Überlieferungen und Praktiken der Stämme war . Mit der Durchsetzung der ismailitischen Mission ( da'wah ) ändert sich das jedoch ebenso radikal ...

Deontic Logic in Computer Science

Normative System Specification

Deontic logic originated from moral philosophy and the philosophy of law as an attempt to formalise normative and legal reasoning. This book draws on the experience of researchers - working in fields as diverse as Artificial Intelligence, linguistics, computer system specification and law - who have discovered the benefits of deontic logic when applied to solving computer science and AI problems. A useful logic in which to specify normative system behaviour, deontic logic has a broad spectrum of possible applications within the field: from legal expert systems to natural language processing, database integrity to electronic contracting and the specification of fault-tolerant software. This book provides a unique and timely assessment of the practical value of deontic logic for computer scientists in AI and law and, more particularly, in such areas as distributed AI and intelligent cooperative information systems.

Beyond the Zeus Principle

Two Hundred Years of Love and Politics in the Novel

Patriarchal rule, termed «Zeus Principle» by Günter Grass, has always been resisted and transcended. A central area for this resistance is the continual change in gender roles. Most notedly, around 1800 the notion of equality revolutionized the concept of love, a process that can be best understood as a complex interrelationship between literature and society. By illustrating the rise and fall of Romantic Love from Romanticism via Realism to Modernism, this book provides the foundation for an examination of how German novels between 1959 and 1989 respond in form and content to «familial allegiances» in a fatherless society. The comprehensive survey of almost one hundred novels, including an in-depth analysis of twelve key novels, is founded in a Critical Social Psychology and supports the central hypothesis of a (re)turn of Romantic Love in contemporary literature.

Economics and the Philosophy of Science

Economists and other social scientists in this century have often supported economic arguments by referring to positions taken by philosophers of science. This important new book looks at the reliability of this practice and--in the process--provides economists, social scientists, and historians with the necessary background to discuss methodological matters with authority. Redman presents an accurate, critical, yet neutral survey of the modern philosophy of science from the Vienna Circle to the present, focusing particularly on logical positivism, sociological explanations of science (Polanyi, Fleck, Kuhn), the Popper family, and the history of science. She then deals with economic methodology in the twentieth century, looking at a wide range of methodological positions, especially those supported by positions from the philosophy of science.

Pursuing Happiness

American Consumers in the Twentieth Century

Whether watching baseball or undergoing heart surgery, Americans have bought a variety of goods and services to achieve happiness. Here is a provocative look at what they have chosen to purchase. Stanley Lebergott maintains that the average consumer has behaved more reasonably than many distinguished critics of "materialism" have suggested. He sees consumers seeking to make an uncertain and often cruel world into a pleasanter and more convenient place--and, for the most part, succeeding. With refreshing common sense, he reminds us of what many "luxuries" have meant, especially for women: increased income since 1900 has been used largely to lighten the backbreaking labor once required by household chores. Originally published in 1996. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These paperback editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.

'Writing with lucidity, wit, and forthrightness... Lebergott argues that the great American shopping spree is not mere self-indulgence but an essential part of what has been a remarkably successful pursuit of happiness.'Jonathan Yardley
