involved. SCMOs are said to represent life-style alternatives and forms of resistance to the traditional marketplace and the ‘bedrock’ within Social Solidarity Economy. They include a “broad range of organizations that are distinguished from conventional for-profit enterprise, entrepreneurship, and informal economy as they have explicit economic, social and environmental objectives.” There is also the more general issue of how SCMOs relate to capitalism and the market. “SCMOs are alternative organizations which, while contesting around capitalism and markets, experiment with alternative ways of organizing. This is done in the attempt to revamp moral principles (such as equality, democracy, and sustainability) within society and to contrast growing extremism and populism sentiments.” There is though little, if anything, in this collection on how SCMOs relate to capitalism or to markets. Hence, questions of the financing of SCMOs and their ownership are not addressed, nor the possibilities that profits are sought by the controllers of SCMOs which may be disguised as additional salary payments and benefits in kind; or the evolving of SCMOs into capitalist organisations (consider the fate of UK building societies). SCMOs are largely viewed in terms of their internal organisation but rather little is said of how they relate to other organisations and people in general through what may be termed market type relationships. There is though mention of Alternative Exchange Networks (AENs) that are solidarity-based exchanges and cooperative structures founded on principles of social and ecological values, participation and cooperation.

ABSTRACT In his critique of Modernity and the modern Gnosis, the prominent Italian Catholic philosopher Augusto Del Noce was particularly influenced by Eric Voegelin’s use of the two concepts in his political theory. The aim of this article is to present the various aspects of the idea of history proposed by Voegelin followed by Del Noce’s response and interpretation of them in order to show the similarities and differences between their views. More specifically, the comparison between Voegelin and Del Noce centers on the question of the eidos or “form” of history and on the difference, important for Del Noce, between ancient and modern Gnosis.

argued, but they did so by making people see ordinary objects differently. Duchamp exhibited a snow shovel. He did not frame his writings and exhibit them. This point brings me to an aspect of Danto’s analysis that underlies much that is said in the conversations but is never made explicit. One of the major implications of the break that Duchamp and Warhol introduced was to question the relationship between art and craft. I mean by craft the complex power to make, to fashion objects out of raw material. The British sculptor Antony Gormley once described making as “physical thinking” (I saw this comment at an exhibition of his works at the Tate Britain gallery in 2018). But the sort of conceptual art that followed in the wake of the separation of artworks and aesthetic criteria opened the field of art to artists who had no talent for making things from paint or clay. On one level that opening of the field of artistic practice to new forms and styles is consistent with the history of human creativity. If art is the highest and freest expression of that creativity then it can never remain confined to a few canonical forms. On the other hand, one might worry that too wide an opening of artistic practice to include anything anyone recognized as an artist decides to present as art threatens Danto’s definition of artworks as “embodied meanings.” As he says: “Formalism cannot define art. You need meaning . . . and embodiment” (62). If both sides are essential, then the collapse of the sensuous materiality of artworks into ideas would prove to be a loss for art and the human sensorium it enlivens and challenges.

dants do not have the same rights as the Danish-speaking majority for permanent residency, education, and work opportunities. Deep down, this is rooted in the fact that language is a critical means of government manipulation, and thus that language planning is ideologically-driven and politically-motivated. With more immigrants dwelling in Denmark, Faingold calls for re-evaluating “the view that language rights of indigenous minorities necessarily supersede the language rights of minority immigrants” (119). In Chapter 6, Faingold recapitulates the significant research findings and proposes directions for future research. He points out that as time goes by, the potential impacts of Brexit on the development of regional minority languages are also worth investigating. Faingold offers a thorough understanding of linguistic minorities’ language rights in the EU by situating his analyses in various legal, political and social settings. However, his study would have been more effective if he had incorporated other EU member states besides Spain and Denmark into a more comprehensive discussion of language policies. Besides, since the EU member states are given the exclusive right to determine the rights of national minorities, the protections of minority language speakers are subject to political considerations, social factors, and historical circumstances. In other words, proper contextualization is a prerequisite for conceptualizing language rights of indigenous and immigrant minorities in the EU. Despite some imperfections, the book provokes thoughts about possible solutions to address LPP issues in a context of linguistic diversity, such as the author’s own suggestion of making cautious adjustments to language laws and policies to help facilitate the linguistic integration of minorities into the EU.

ABSTRACT The aim of this article is neither to challenge nor to defend Isaiah Berlin’s thought but rather to identify the main influences on his concept of liberalism. Berlin’s justification for liberalism is distinctive in that it reflects influences of Romanticism and Augustinianism. Unlike some liberals, his liberalism does not reflect unambiguous confidence in the products of the Enlightenment. Berlin valued the freedom of expression and identity, yet he feared that these freedoms faced potential threats from both left and right. These considerations led Berlin to found his liberalism on the notion of limited government, as is reflected in his bias towards negative, rather than positive, liberty. Negative liberty implies restraint on the part of the state in order to limit anything that might act as an impediment to individual freedom. In contrast, positive liberty implies that the state may have to be active even to the point of imposing restrictions on individual freedom in order to ameliorate effective limits on liberty imposed as a consequence of societal inequities. Berlin is justly deemed to have been one of the great political theorists of the twentieth century. Few, even among his critics, would deny this, and even those who disagree with Berlin’s conclusions would acknowledge that his framing of the questions and his references to history have elevated and enriched the debate on liberalism.
