Development is a consistent element in the implementation of Indonesian policies. However, it has become increasingly challenging, particularly following the decline of the New Order regime and Indonesia’s rejection of certain political practices associated with it. This paper aims to present a reflective analysis of the evolving nature of development, from its initiation under the New Order regime to the present post-Reformation era, and how nationalist development navigates the intricate cultural landscape in Indonesia as well as exploring the possibility of the idea of ecological modernization being an alternative to the obsolete New Order development model.
发展是执行印度尼西亚政策的一贯内容。然而,它已变得越来越具有挑战性,特别是在新秩序政权衰落和印度尼西亚拒绝与之有关的某些政治做法之后。本文旨在反思性地分析发展的演变性质,从新秩序政权下的发展开始到现在的后宗教改革时代,以及民族主义发展如何在印度尼西亚复杂的文化景观中导航,并探索生态现代化理念替代过时的新秩序发展模式的可能性。

Buddhist Environmental Ethics 佛教环境伦理
Q4 Arts and Humanities Pub Date : 2023-01-01 DOI: 10.5840/du202333226
Dilipkumar Mohanta
There is no greater threat today to the security of life on this earth than environmental degradation covering all aspects of Nature—plants, animals and human. It is imperative to take interest in a future which lies beyond the boundary of our short-sighted outlook and self-interests. Non-western and indigenous cultural approaches to environmental issues are relevant today. Following Buddhist Ethics we can extend love, compassion, and non-violence in practice and limit our greed, and also we can take interest in protecting the right to happiness of future generations. In the light of the ethical teachings contained in the texts of Buddhism, I propose two different methodological models, namely the “Honey-Bee Model” and “Mother-Child Model,” for addressing an ideal relation between humans and Nature. The Buddhist approach to environmental issues is based on the law of Dependent Origination and the theory of Not-Self or Relational Self. I shall also argue that Buddha’s teaching integrates all aspects of the ecosphere—individuals and general species—in terms of mutual interdependence, which in a sense an attempt to institutionalize care and welfare ethics beyond the human domain to also reach the animal and plant worlds. This paper is an attempt to address current ecological problems from the moral perspective of Buddhism.
今天,对地球上生命安全的最大威胁莫过于覆盖自然界各个方面——植物、动物和人类的环境退化。我们必须对超越我们的短视和自身利益的未来感兴趣。非西方和土著文化的方法对环境问题是相关的今天。遵循佛教伦理,我们可以在实践中扩展爱、慈悲和非暴力,限制我们的贪婪,我们也可以关心保护后代的幸福权利。根据佛教典籍中包含的伦理教义,我提出了两种不同的方法论模式,即“蜜蜂模式”和“母子模式”,以解决人与自然的理想关系。佛教处理环境问题的方法是基于缘起法和无我或关系自我的理论。我还会说,佛陀的教导结合了生态圈的各个方面——个人和一般物种——相互依存,从某种意义上说,这是一种将关怀和福利伦理制度化的尝试,超越了人类领域,也触及了动植物世界。本文试图从佛教的道德角度来探讨当前的生态问题。

Three Interpretations of the “Ideology” Category. Max Horkheimer’s Conception of Ideology “意识形态”范畴的三种解释。马克斯·霍克海默的《意识形态概念》
Q4 Arts and Humanities Pub Date : 2023-01-01 DOI: 10.5840/du20233316
S. Czerniak
The article consists of the following thematic threads: a) an overview of three interpretations of the term “ideology” in subject literature; b) a reconstruction of Max Horkheimer's ideology conception, presented in the first half of the 1930s in writings published in the Zeitschrift für Sozialforschung [Social Research Journal]; c) an attempt to answer the question to what degree this conception was paradigmatic for the early Frankfurt School (here, for comparative purposes, the author cites writings by Leo Löwenthal and Paul Landsberg, which were also published in the Zeitschrift für Sozialforschung).
本文主要围绕以下几个主题展开:1)对主题文学中“意识形态”一词的三种解释进行综述;b)马克思·霍克海默的意识形态概念的重建,在20世纪30年代上半叶发表在《社会研究杂志》(Zeitschrift fr Sozialforschung)上;c)试图回答这个问题,这个概念在多大程度上是早期法兰克福学派的范例(在这里,为了比较的目的,作者引用了Leo Löwenthal和Paul Landsberg的作品,这些作品也发表在《社会研究》杂志上)。

Self-Preservation and Coloniality 自我保护和殖民主义
Q4 Arts and Humanities Pub Date : 2023-01-01 DOI: 10.5840/du20233317
J. Chimakonam, Dorothy N. Oluwagbemi-Jacob
In this paper, we will critically examine the notion of rationality and the disabling instinct of self-preservation that play out in human relationships. That “man is a rational animal,” as Aristotle declared is usually taken for granted in social studies. But whether humans act rationally all the time, and in all circumstances remains questionable. Here, we shall investigate this concern from a decolonial perspective by engaging some contradictions thrown up in the context of coloniality within which a section of humanity dehumanizes the rest. The question then is, how rational is the intellectual program of coloniality? Taking a cue from conversational thinking that places the notion of relationship at the center of decolonial analysis, we argue that coloniality fractures the inter and intra-racial relationships due mainly to the instinct of self-preservation that overwhelms human rationality. What has emerged today as the superior/inferior divide, racialism, classism, internal colonialism, ethnic cleansing, apartheid, xenophobia, and genocide are some of the consequences of warped and uncritical thinking driven by an extreme form of the instinct of self-preservation. We argue that the promotion of critical (higher-order) thinking in addition to ordinary (lower-order) thinking could be crucial in a decolonial program.
在本文中,我们将批判性地审视理性的概念和在人际关系中发挥作用的自我保护的残疾本能。亚里士多德所说的“人是理性的动物”在社会研究中通常被认为是理所当然的。但是,人类是否在任何时候、任何情况下都是理性的,仍然是个问题。在这里,我们将从非殖民化的角度来研究这一问题,方法是处理在殖民主义背景下产生的一些矛盾,在殖民主义背景下,一部分人使其余人非人化。那么问题来了,殖民主义的智力计划有多理性?从将关系概念置于非殖民化分析中心的对话思维中得到提示,我们认为殖民破坏了种族间和种族内的关系,主要是由于自我保护的本能压倒了人类的理性。今天出现的优等/劣等之分、种族主义、阶级主义、内部殖民主义、种族清洗、种族隔离、仇外心理和种族灭绝,都是由极端形式的自我保护本能所驱动的扭曲和不批判思维的一些后果。我们认为,除了普通(低阶)思维之外,促进批判性(高阶)思维在非殖民化计划中可能至关重要。

The Impact of Natural Disasters on Intercultural Dialogue and Its Reflection in Dave Egger’s Zeitoun 自然灾害对跨文化对话的影响及其在戴夫·艾格《时代周刊》中的反映
Q4 Arts and Humanities Pub Date : 2023-01-01 DOI: 10.5840/du202333223
Elmira Fakhrudinova, Zhanna Konovalova
The paper addresses the issue of intercultural dialogue and its importance for ecological humanism and how this problem is reflected in American literary nonfiction at the beginning of the 21st century (as exemplified by nonfiction novel Zeitoun by Dave Eggers). The authors of the article come to the conclusion that the successful resolution of modern socio-ecological crises requires practical humanism and the actualization of the principles of ecological philosophy. The most important component of the dialogue among cultures at all levels is the moral component, since it is mutual recognition and respect for norms, customs, traditions, ideals, eternal moral values that are the basis for the mutual enrichment of cultures, as well as the socio-political, environmental and economic stability of society as a whole. The book Zeitoun by Eggers demonstrates the importance of intercultural dialogue especially in situations in which entire nations face global ecological disaster.
本文探讨了文化间对话的问题及其对生态人文主义的重要性,以及这一问题如何在21世纪初的美国非虚构文学中得到反映(以戴夫·埃格斯的非虚构小说《Zeitoun》为例)。本文认为,成功地解决现代社会生态危机需要实践的人文主义和生态哲学原则的实现。各级文化间对话的最重要组成部分是道德部分,因为它是相互承认和尊重规范、习俗、传统、理想、永恒的道德价值的基础,这些是文化相互丰富以及整个社会的社会政治、环境和经济稳定的基础。埃格斯的《Zeitoun》一书展示了跨文化对话的重要性,尤其是在整个国家面临全球生态灾难的情况下。

Instrumental Reason, Technology, and Society 工具理性、技术与社会
Q4 Arts and Humanities Pub Date : 2023-01-01 DOI: 10.5840/du20233314
Cecilia Coronado Angulo
Technological development is accompanied by a paradox: while it often promises enormous benefits for humanity, it can also lead to inconceivable tragedy, including the instrumentalization of the individual, growing social inequality, environmental impact, etc. What causes this paradox? a) Could it be that the nature of technology generates this contradiction? b) Is it the agent that uses it? c) Or is it the circumstances in which technology is used that determine its suitability or disservice? My aim in this paper is to revise nature, causes and political explanations of the paradox. To do so, the first section will give a historical overview of this phenomenon, the second will assess three proposals that attempt to explain its origin, and, finally, the paper will weigh such approaches from the view of the Frankfurt School. Evaluating the paradoxical conditions that surround technology allows us to better understand its role in our societies.
技术发展伴随着一个悖论:虽然它经常给人类带来巨大的利益,但它也可能导致难以想象的悲剧,包括个人的工具化、日益严重的社会不平等、对环境的影响等。是什么导致了这种矛盾?a)会不会是技术的本质造成了这种矛盾?b)是使用它的药剂吗?c)还是技术使用的环境决定了它的适宜性或有害性?本文的目的是修正这一悖论的性质、原因和政治解释。为此,第一部分将对这一现象进行历史概述,第二部分将评估试图解释其起源的三种建议,最后,本文将从法兰克福学派的角度对这些方法进行权衡。评估围绕技术的矛盾条件可以让我们更好地理解它在我们的社会中的作用。

On Two-Valued and Multiple-Valued Logic and on Paradoxes of Verity 二值逻辑与多值逻辑及其真实性悖论
Q4 Arts and Humanities Pub Date : 2023-01-01 DOI: 10.5840/du20233319
Emilia A. Tajsin
The phenomena of truth, truthfulness, veracity and “truthiness” discussed widely in logic, epistemology as theory of science and gnoseology as general theory of knowledge, have received many interpretations—and not a single one to be generally accepted. Discussions continue not only upon narrow technical, operational questions of the predicate calculus and/or propositions calculus, but also on logic-gnoseological problems, one of which casts doubt on the maxim “logic is the house of truth,” and the other highlights the laxity of the opposition of “truth—falsehood” meanings as the main categories of the two-valued logic. These evaluations of proposition do not in fact oppose each other in the sense of a contradiction. Verity and falsity are controversial (opposite), but not contradictory (antithetical) concepts; it is truth and non-truth that are contradictory. Therefore, there is not only the possibility, but also the reality of the existence of a field, or zone, of transition between the values “true—false.”
在逻辑学、作为科学理论的认识论和作为一般知识理论的灵知学中广泛讨论的真理、真性、真实性和“真性”现象,已经得到了许多解释——但没有一个是被普遍接受的。讨论不仅继续讨论谓词演算和/或命题演算的狭窄的技术、操作问题,而且还讨论了逻辑-灵知学问题,其中一个问题对“逻辑是真理之家”这一格言提出了怀疑,另一个问题突出了“真-假”意义作为二值逻辑的主要范畴的对立的松散性。事实上,这些命题的评价在矛盾的意义上并不相互对立。真与假是有争议的(相反的)概念,但不是矛盾的(对立的)概念;真理和非真理是相互矛盾的。因此,在“真与假”这两个值之间,不仅存在着可能性,而且存在着一个领域或区域的现实。

Politics, Racism, and Environmental (In)justice in the United States 美国的政治、种族主义和环境正义
Q4 Arts and Humanities Pub Date : 2023-01-01 DOI: 10.5840/du202333224

Fairness has long been denied for African-Americans and other people of color when it comes to environmental injustices, or crimes committed by state governments and polluting industries/corporations. Unfortunately, polluting companies often go unpunished for their environmental misdeeds, particularly if what they do is in minority or marginalized communities. Furthermore, environmental biases in American courts, unfortunately, are still prevalent in our society today—that is, when it comes to vulnerable groups, who continue to seek environmental justice, but cannot fight back. Environmental injustice, therefore, should be considered unjust acts when it comes to polluting communities of color. Also, environmental issues are always problematic, especially in regard to climate change. In a certain sense, there is an urgent need to protect these disadvantaged communities of color from polluting corporations. Indeed, can we end this environmental cruelty? More importantly, how can we stop polluters from burying hazardous material in landfills on lands owned by Indigenous people or Native Americans? Polluting industries must also be put on notice, and we must question anyone in the energy business who is deceptive about their nasty pollution. It should be obvious that nothing will change anytime soon regarding the environmental injustice issue if we do not get involved and fight the polluters head-on, and without reservation.
长期以来,当涉及到环境不公正,或州政府和污染行业/公司犯下的罪行时,非洲裔美国人和其他有色人种的公平一直被剥夺。不幸的是,污染企业在环境方面的不当行为往往不受惩罚,尤其是在少数民族或边缘社区。此外,不幸的是,美国法院的环境偏见在我们今天的社会中仍然普遍存在——也就是说,当涉及到弱势群体时,他们继续寻求环境正义,但无法反击。因此,当涉及到污染有色人种社区时,环境不公应该被视为不公正的行为。此外,环境问题一直是个问题,尤其是在气候变化方面。从某种意义上说,迫切需要保护这些处于不利地位的有色人种社区免受污染企业的侵害。的确,我们能结束这种残酷的环境吗?更重要的是,我们如何才能阻止污染者将有害物质埋在土着人民或美洲原住民拥有的土地上的垃圾填埋场?污染行业也必须受到关注,我们必须质疑能源行业中那些在严重污染问题上撒谎的人。很明显,如果我们不参与进来,与污染者正面对抗,毫无保留地对抗,环境不公问题不会很快改变。

Problems of the Unknowability and Total Unity in the Light of Philosophy of Semyon L. Frank 弗兰克哲学视野下的不可知与整体统一问题
Q4 Arts and Humanities Pub Date : 2023-01-01 DOI: 10.5840/du202333110

The article analyzes the problems of unknowability and total unity in the light of philosophy of Semyon L. Frank, set forth by him in the work The Unknowable. The author of the paper considers all the problems that arise as “icebergs” and tries to find the reasons for the distortion of the vision of the “top of the iceberg” and the “underwater part of the iceberg,” which is often unaware. The author examines the problems of the inadequate perception of reality: a narrow “one’s own little world” of the world perception, passed off as the truth in the final instance; absolutization of the mind, which considers itself able to know everything; the cultivation of negative information and cruelty in society; the role of media forming world perception; antagonistic dichotomy of the world perception; lack of a sense of connection of everything that exists, in particular of a sense of unity of “I” and “Thou;” loss of the “culture of heart” and the ability to love. As a result of the analysis undertaken, the author concludes that only by changing the causes that give rise to the “world of evil and separation” can the lost integrity and harmony of man, society and world civilization be restored. The revival of the earth’s civilization is possible only in total unity.
本文从弗兰克在《不可知》一书中提出的哲学思想出发,分析了不可知性与全统性的问题。本文的作者将所有出现的问题都视为“冰山”,并试图找到“冰山顶部”和“冰山水下部分”的视觉扭曲的原因,这往往是不知道的。作者考察了现实感不足的问题:一种狭隘的“自己的小世界”的世界感知,最终被当作真理;心灵的绝对化,它认为自己能够知道一切;社会中负面信息和残忍行为的滋生;媒介对世界观形成的作用;世界知觉的对抗性二分法;缺乏对存在的一切事物的联系感,特别是“我”和“你”的统一性;失去“心灵的文化”和爱的能力。通过分析,作者得出结论,只有改变造成“恶与分离的世界”的原因,才能恢复人类、社会和世界文明失去的完整与和谐。地球文明的复兴只有在完全统一中才有可能。

The author of the paper considers all the problems that arise as “icebergs” and tries to find the reasons for the distortion of the vision of the “top of the iceberg” and the “underwater part of the iceberg,” which is often unaware. The author examines the problems of the inadequate perception of reality: a narrow “one’s own little world” of the world perception, passed off as the truth in the final instance; absolutization of the mind, which considers itself able to know everything; the cultivation of negative information and cruelty in society; the role of media forming world perception; antagonistic dichotomy of the world perception; lack of a sense of connection of everything that exists, in particular of a sense of unity of “I” and “Thou;” loss of the “culture of heart” and the ability to love. As a result of the analysis undertaken, the author concludes that only by changing the causes that give rise to the “world of evil and separation” can the lost integrity and harmony of man, society and world civilization be restored. The revival of the earth’s civilization is possible only in total unity.","PeriodicalId":36732,"journal":{"name":"Dialogue and Universalism","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71255900","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Do We Really Need a New Enlightenment for the 21st Century? 21世纪我们真的需要新的启蒙吗?

This article is a critical response to the claim advanced by Robert Elliott Allinson in three issues of Dialogue and Universalism that we need a new Enlightenment for the 21st century. In contradistinction to this claim, I argue that what we really need is a new interpretation of the ideals of the European Enlightenment. This assertion is based on the assumption that the basic beliefs and values that constitute the heart and soul of the European Enlightenment are founded in human nature and that this nature is one and the same among all human beings. My discussion is composed of two parts, the first is formal, and the second is analytical. In the first part, I present general observations on the cultural and historical dynamics of the European Enlightenment. In the second part, I advance an analysis and a critical evaluation of the arguments Allinson advances in the editorial he wrote for the three issues of Dialogue and Universalism. The proposition I defend is that we need not a new Enlightenment but an interpretation and a comprehensive, efficacious implementation of the ideals of reason, science, and humanism.
本文是对罗伯特·艾略特·阿林森在《对话与普遍主义》三期中提出的21世纪我们需要新的启蒙运动这一主张的批判性回应。与这种说法相反,我认为我们真正需要的是对欧洲启蒙运动理想的新解释。这一论断是基于这样一种假设:构成欧洲启蒙运动核心和灵魂的基本信仰和价值观是建立在人性之上的,而人性在所有人类中都是一样的。我的讨论由两部分组成,第一部分是形式上的,第二部分是分析性的。在第一部分中,我对欧洲启蒙运动的文化和历史动态进行了一般性的观察。在第二部分中,我对艾林森在他为《对话与普遍主义》的三个问题所写的社论中提出的论点进行了分析和批判性评价。我所捍卫的主张是,我们需要的不是新的启蒙运动,而是对理性、科学和人文主义理想的一种解释和全面有效的实施。
