An argument for idealism Bolender, J (2001-04-01) According to Russell, the intrinsic nature of the physical is the same as or deeply analogous to phenomenal qualities, those properties known through acquaintance in one's subjective experience. I defend his position and argue that it implies a kind of idealism, specifically the view that any intrinsic physical property instance can only exist as an object of acquaintance.

A critique of Inter-American Development Bank's neoliberal discourse of exclusion Menemencioğlu, Rifat Kerim; Bedirhanoğlu Toker, Pınar; Department of International Relations (2009) Exclusion has become a popular term in the recent two decades which is used to designate to the relatively disadvantageous people, groups, parties in different societies. Given the fact that concepts are not innocent, there is a need to think on the question of what “exclusion” as a concept excludes and includes different from other relevant concepts such as poverty, marginalization, and/or underclass. This thesis will try to answer these questions by focusing on the Inter- American Development Bank’s (IDB)...
Yükseköğretimde akademik kendileşme (Academic Inbreeding) ve kurumsal habitusun inşası üzerine bir tartışma Göktürk Ağın, Duygun; Kandemir, Anıl (2019-11-01) This article develops a new framework that explains how academic inbreeding structures and practices produce institutional habitus and generate forms of institutional micro structures and practices at higher education institutions. In this study, we try to map the territory of institutional habitus with tracing its link to academic inbreeding practices and attempt to refine its encounters in diverse spheres of institutional life and higher education. In the first part, we review the current literature...
