- Postcolonialism and Islam: theory, literature, culture, society and film.GeoffreyNash,Kathleen Kerr-Koch &Sarah E. Hackett (eds.) -2014 - New York: Routledge, Taylor & Francis Group.With a focus on the areas of theory, literature, culture, society and film, this collection of essays examines, questions and broadens the applicability of Postcolonialism and Islam from a multifaceted and cross-disciplinary perspective.Topics covered include the relationship between Postcolonialism and Orientalism, theoretical perspectives on Postcolonialism and Islam, the position of Islam within postcolonial literature, Muslim identity in British and European contexts, and the role of Islam in colonial and postcolonial cinema in Egypt and India. At a time at which Islam (...) continues to be at the centre of increasingly heated and frenzied political and academic deliberations, Postcolonialism and Islam offers a framework around which the debate on Muslims in the modern world can be centred.Transgressing geographical, disciplinary and theoretical boundaries, this book is an invaluable resource for students of Islamic Studies, Cultural Studies, Sociolgy and Literature.

Bookmark - Narratives of Arab Anglophone Women and the Articulation of a Major Discourse in a Minor Literature.Dalal Sarnou -2014 -International Studies. Interdisciplinary Political and Cultural Journal 16 (1):65-81.“It is important to stress that a variety of positions with respect to feminism, nation, religion and identity are to be found in Anglophone Arab women’s writings. This being the case, it is doubtful whether, in discussing this literary production, much mileage is to be extracted from over emphasis of the notion of its being a conduit of ‘Third World subaltern women.’” Building onGeoffreyNash’s statement and reflecting on Deleuze and Guattari’s conceptualization of minor literature and Gloria (...) Anzaldua’s Borderland, we will discuss in this paper how the writings of Arab Anglophone women are specific minor and borderland narratives within minor literature through a tentative localization of Arab women’s English literature into distinct and various categories. By referring to various bestselling English works produced by Arab British and Arab American women authors, our aim is to establish a new taxonomy that may fit the specificity of these works.

- Is attention necessary for object identification? Evidence from eye movements during the inspection of real-world scenes.Geoffrey Underwood,Emma Templeman,Laura Lamming &Tom Foulsham -2008 -Consciousness and Cognition 17 (1):159-170.Eye movements were recorded during the display of two images of a real-world scene that were inspected to determine whether they were the same or not . In the displays where the pictures were different, one object had been changed, and this object was sometimes taken from another scene and was incongruent with the gist. The experiment established that incongruous objects attract eye fixations earlier than the congruous counterparts, but that this effect is not apparent until the picture has been (...) displayed for several seconds. By controlling the visual saliency of the objects the experiment eliminates the possibility that the incongruency effect is dependent upon the conspicuity of the changed objects. A model of scene perception is suggested whereby attention is unnecessary for the partial recognition of an object that delivers sufficient information about its visual characteristics for the viewer to know that the object is improbable in that particular scene, and in which full identification requires foveal inspection.

- Idealism and the Interface Theory.Geoffrey Lee -2024 - In Uriah Kriegel,Oxford Studies in Philosophy of Mind Vol 4. Oxford University Press. pp. 108-143.This paper argues that there is a non-standard but theoretically important notion of “veridicality”, on which perception is only veridical if it does not scramble the objective physical structure of the environment. I argue that non-veridicality in this sense is compatible with veridicality in more familiar senses, and motivate the importance of the notion. For example, I think a certain kind of realism about the scientific enterprise (that it can uncover nature’s natural structure by inference from the manifest image), assumes (...) that perception is veridical in this sense. I think the best reconstruction of Hoffman, Singh and Prakah’s “Interface Theory” is as the view that perception is non-veridical in this non-standard sense – a view that I think is reasonably understood as a kind of transcendental idealism, because it makes the objective structure of the world unknowable to us. They offer debunking arguments against perceptual veridicality (in this special sense). I respond to these arguments, and sketch a realist alternative. (shrink)

- Underqualified—maximal generality in Darwinian explanation: a response to Matt Gers.Geoffrey M. Hodgson &Thorbjørn Knudsen -2012 -Biology and Philosophy 27 (4):607-614.Gers (Biol Philos, 2011) provides a positive and constructive view of the project to generalise Darwinian principles inGeoffrey Hodgson and Thorbjørn Knudsen’s Darwin’s Conjecture. We note considerable overlap with his work and ours, and also with important recent work of Godfrey-Smith ( 2009 ), which Gers cites extensively. But we also note that there are differences in research objectives between Gers and Godfrey-Smith, on the one hand, and ourselves, on the other. Gers and Godfrey-Smith focus on the elucidation (...) of the most general principles possible. Our aim is to derive principles that are sufficiently abstract to span the natural and human social worlds, and then add additional principles to help understand the Darwinian evolution of human society. Furthermore, Gers and Godfrey-Smith critique a replicator concept that is different from ours. Once these points are made apparent, the criticisms are essentially disabled, and we end up in a position with different but complementary and overlapping research projects. (shrink)
- Confluences intercultural journeying in research and teaching: from hermeneutics to a changing world order.DavidGeoffrey Smith -2019 - Charlotte, NC: Information Age Publishing.In this book, Canadian scholar DavidGeoffrey Smith reflects on over thirty years of research and teaching in the human sciences, including education. Written between 1986 and 2018, the essays are organized around three themes: Hermeneutics and the Human Sciences; The Poststructuralist Turn; Globalization and Its Discontents; East/West Encounters and the Search for Wisdom. As a historical guide through the defining discourses in the human sciences, this volume could well serve as an introductory text for graduate students in education (...) and other cognate disciplines like nursing, recreation and cultural studies. The writing can be described as a form of meditative praxis, while the emphasis on interculturality addresses issues in literacy, pedagogy, politics, critical thinking, teacher education, and cultural healing from a geopolitical perspective, drawing on insights from both Western and Eastern traditions and the author's personal experience of being born in China and raised in Central Africa (Northern Rhodesia/Zambia).

- Hamilton's fear: Republican judicial review and the separation of complicit powers.Geoffrey Sigalet -forthcoming -European Journal of Political Theory.Recent republican debates about judicial review have focused on whether courts deliver legitimate forms of political contestation about rights. These ‘political constitutionalists’ frame the separation of powers as a matter of ‘friction’. The rival approach emphasizes whether the expertise and capacity of courts can ‘efficiently’ get certain jobs done to secure different ends. These rival approaches inform debates about judicial review and bills of rights. This article argues that emphasizing political contestation fails to address the problem of complicity between the (...) branches. Judicial politics in the USA, Canada, the UK and New Zealand suggests that judicial complicity with the political branches lets political actors escape democratic accountability for policy choices related to rights. Courts enable this by abusing the power to interpret law to help political factions protect or reform the status quo. As such, liberty can have something to fear from the judiciary when it does not act alone. (shrink)

- Sensing without seeing in comparative visual search.Adam Galpin,Geoffrey Underwood &Peter Chapman -2008 -Consciousness and Cognition 17 (3):672-687.Rensink [Rensink, R. A. . Visual sensing without seeing. Psychological Science, 15, 27–32] has presented evidence suggesting visual changes may be sensed without an accompanying visual experience. Here, we report two experiments in which we monitored observers’ eye-movements whilst they searched for a difference between two simultaneously presented images and pressed separate response keys when a difference was seen or sensed. We first assessed whether sensing performance was random by collecting ratings of confidence in the validity of sensing and assessing (...) gaze location during sensing. Sensing was not random: fixation position and confidence ratings were different when a difference was present compared to catch trials. Furthermore, the uniformity of objects in the images and the type of difference appear to affect seeing and sensing differently, suggesting that these processes are dissociated. The possibility is discussed of a sensing mechanism that increases vigilance toward unconsciously registered differences, particularly changes to scene layout. (shrink)
- Hobbes's contempt for opinions: Manipulation and the challenge for mass democracies.Geoffrey M. Vaughan -1999 -Critical Review: A Journal of Politics and Society 13 (1-2):55-71.Thomas Hobbes denied both that opinion provides access to truth and that it ought to be protected from political manipulation. Hobbes knew that his contempt for opinion put him at odds with the classical tradition of political philosophy. What he could not have known was that it also would put him at odds with modern, liberal democracy, which protects opinions—the opinions of the public—that it cannot invest with truth value.

- Generalized Darwinism and Evolutionary Economics: From Ontology to Theory.Geoffrey M. Hodgson &Thorbjørn Knudsen -2011 -Biological Theory 6 (4):326-337.Despite growing interest in evolutionary economics since the 1980s, a unified theoretical approach has so far been lacking. Methodological and ontological discussions within evolutionary economics have attempted to understand and help rectify this failure, but have revealed in turn further differences of perspective. One aim of this article is to show how different approaches relate to different levels of abstraction. A second purpose is to show that generalized Darwinism is some way from the most abstract level, and illustrates how it (...) may be used to move towards more specific theoretical applications. Nevertheless, there is a long way to go before these become more evident. (shrink)

- Penelope Rush.* Ontology and the Foundations of Mathematics: Talking Past Each Other.Geoffrey Hellman -2022 -Philosophia Mathematica 30 (3):387-392.This compact volume, belonging to the Cambridge Elements series, is a useful introduction to some of the most fundamental questions of philosophy and foundations of mathematics. What really distinguishes realist and platonist views of mathematics from anti-platonist views, including fictionalist and nominalist and modal-structuralist views?1 They seem to confront similar problems of justification, presenting tradeoffs between which it is difficult to adjudicate. For example, how do we gain access to the abstract posits of platonist accounts of arithmetic, analysis, geometry, etc., (...) including numbers, functions, sets, points, lines, spaces, etc., whether it be such objects themselves or the possibilities of such, as postulated by modal and modal structural accounts?2 What real difference does it make, whether it be the existence of such things or the mathematical possibility of such things? Even fictionalist views seem to confront analogous problems. After all, we rely on mathematics for myriad scientific applications; so such mathematics had better at least be coherent, even if not true. But coherence requires at least formal consistency; so we seem implicitly to be committed to things like formal derivations, viz. the absence of any such having contradictory consequences, framed within the appropriate system of axioms and rules. But derivations are themselves akin to mathematical objects, as derivations are strings of strings of symbols. Moreover, derivations provided by axioms and rules form an infinite class, such that, at any future time, infinitely many will not have been written down. Moreover, such strings, as Gödel famously showed, can be coded as natural numbers. Thus, even fictionalist accounts (such as that of Field in his Science without Numbers [2016]) seem to confront problems very much like those plaguing platonist accounts. (shrink)

- (1 other version)Adam's place in nature: Respect or domination?RogerNash -1990 -Journal of Agricultural and Environmental Ethics 3 (2):102-113.The creation story in Genesis speaks of humankind being given dominion over nature. Does this support the view that nature has solely instrumental value, and is of worth only insofar as it serves the necessities and conveniences of the human species? Does dominion amount to unfettered domination here? An interpretation of the story is advanced employing procedures of practical criticism. Three central images are focussed on: Adam's being given dominion over the other creatures, his naming of them, and his being (...) made in God's likeness. It is argued that these images, in their qualification and enrichment of each other, develop the idea that animals are of worth independently of their usefulness to us. Other key parts of the Bible, that at first may seem to promote unfettered domination, are shown to be more properly read as supporting an animal-benign religious ethics. (shrink)
