Extractions: Search our website Tread Lightly! Australia is a non profit, community driven organisation which seeks to balance the use of public and private land and waterways for outdoor recreational pursuits, with conservation of the land and waterways. We seek to achieve this through developing awareness, education and training; not through barricades and total exclusion from outdoor recreational areas. The Tread Lightly objective is to reach the point where all Australians have an awareness of the potential for their recreation to create impacts and to therefore behave responsibly and apply low impact principles in the pursuit of their particular outdoor activity. Our method to bring about the adoption of Minimal Impact Practices, and Codes of Ethics for all recreational pursuits in Australia's Great Outdoors. The organisation acts like a hub on a wheel and works in "Partnership" with Industry, the User Groups and Land Managers. By so doing Tread Lightly! Education Modules and Projects will contain user specific material, which will not be imposed, but rather developed, evaluated and modified, in consultation with the User Groups. Tread Lightly! is the catalyst; all those involved in supplying or participating in outdoor recreation will be the winners. Through facilitation, workshops and conferences, publications, information and communication and many other services, Tread Lightly! Australia en

Extractions: The visiting Committee appointed by U.G.C to asses the development schemes of this University during the Sixth Plan Period observed with surprise that although the University of Mumbai is one of the oldest in the country, there is as yet no development of philosophy in the University (p.16) and recommended that only one new department that of philosophy should be started, not on a large scale but on such a scale as to more or less self sufficient in running a modest teaching programme (p.18) three Posts, one post of professor and two posts of lecturers were sanctioned.

Extractions: Home Site Map "With the philosophy of Nicolai Hartmann we once again enter a world of sober, objective and impartial inquiry, which presses beyond man's self and seeks to grasp the universe of being so far as it is revealed to our limited capacity to know. The basic mood of Existence philosophy, as might be expected, is altogether missing from this universal way of viewing matters. (...). The true concern of his philosophy is to discover the structural laws of the real world, of the world of being, not of some `world of mere appearances' set out in front of the real world. Traditional philosophy, according to Hartmann, has sinned a great deal in this connection and in a double manner. First, it has always believed that it faced two basic alternatives - to accept an absolute knowledge of being, or else to assume the total unknowability of the `things in themselves'. The latter course means rejecting the possibility altogether of objective knowledge of being, the former results in closed metaphysical systems that dismiss the irrational aspects of being and hold that the whole of being may in principle be grasped rationally. What has been overlooked is the middle possibility, namely, that being may be partially comprehensible conceptually despite the irrationality of the infinite portion that remains. The second error of traditional philosophy is the propensity, stemming from the monistic need for unity, to transfer the categories or principles of one province to another that differs from it in kind. Illustrations are the application of mechanistic principles to the sphere of the organic, of organic relationships to social and political life, and, conversely, of mental and spiritual structures to the inanimate world. This infringement of categorial boundaries, as Hartmann calls the theoretical encroachment of one province of being upon another, must be eliminated by rigorous critical analysis; yet the categories must preserve their relative validity for the domain from which they were taken originally. From the standpoint of a critical ontology, the totality of beings then turns out to be a far more complicated structure than finds expression in the traditional metaphysical formulas of unity.

Extractions: This is a list of important publications in philosophy , organized by field. Some reasons why a particular publication might be regarded as important: Dialogues of Plato Author: Plato Publication data: 427 BC 347 BC The Collected Dialogues of Plato (Bollingen Series LXXI), edited by Edith Hamilton and Huntington Cairns, 1961. Online version: plato-dialogues.org http://plato-dialogues.org/links.htm Description: These classic dialogues are sometime considered to be the beginning of philosophy. The dialog had impact in various other ares. Plato's Republic deals with political philosophy (presented, stylistically, via the concept of a Utopia ethics , and his theory of universals the 'forms' )among other things.

Extractions: What is the nature of our mathematical knowledge? The great 19th century German philosopher/mathematician, Gottlob Frege, famously attempted to show that the fundamental laws of classical arithmetic and analysis are theorems of pure logic. If this were true, mathematical knowledge would be of a piece with knowledge of logic. Notoriously, Frege's programme failed, his system collapsing into inconsistency. He himself then renounced the whole approach and three generations of philosophers agreed that he was right to do so. The publication in 1983 of Crispin Wright's Frege's Conception of Numbers as Objects (FCNO), marked the start of a period of active reappraisal of Frege's attempt. Wright argued that, at least as far as number-theory (the theory of the finite cardinals) is concerned, important formal and philosophical insights can be salvaged from the wreckage of Frege's account. In view of the increasing interest in the main philosophical ideas in FCNO and growing recognition of their technical potential, we now launch a five-year collaborative project to explore the prospects of extending the neo-Fregean approach to real and functional analysis and to classical set theory, and to examine its philosophical significance and problems in greater depth. The neo-Fregean thesis about arithmetic is that knowledge of the basic arithmetical laws (essentially, the Dedekind-Peano axioms)-and hence of the existence of a range of objects which satisfy them-may be based

The Scientific Philosophy Of Mario Bunge A complete bibliography of Mario Bunge s publications for the period 19391989 Exact philosophy. Problems, tools and goals. Edited by Bunge Mario. http://www.formalontology.it/bungem.htm
Extractions: Home Site Map "The Treatise encompasses what the author takes to be the nucleus of contemporary philosophy, namely semantics (theories of meaning and truth), epistemology (theories of knowledge), metaphysics (general theories of the world), and ethics (theories of value and of right action). Social philosophy, political philosophy, legal philosophy, the philosophy of education, aesthetics, the philosophy of religion and other branches of philosophy have been excluded from the above quadrivium either because they have been absorbed by the sciences of man or because they may be regarded as applications of both fundamental philosophy and logic. Nor has logic been included in the Treatise although it is as much a part of philosophy as it is of mathematics. The reason for this exclusion is that logic has become a subject so technical that only mathematicians can hope to make original contributions to it. We have just borrowed whatever logic we use. The philosophy expounded in the Treatise is systematic and, to some extent, also exact and scientific. That is, the philosophical theories formulated in these volumes are
