Implementation and Public Policy

Implementation and Public Policy

Daniel A. Mazmanian; Paul A. Sabatier

University Press of America
1989
nidottu
Implementation and Public Policy includes a thorough explication of the implementation process. The framework delineates five distinct stages beginning with formulation through revision and reformulation. Five separate cases of implementation are examined: clean air, school desegregation, new towns, compensatory education, and coastal zone management. Useful at undergraduate, graduate, and professional levels, this book carved an important niche in the field of implementation studies when first published in 1983 by Scott Foresman Publishers. The extensive "Postscript" written for the UPA edition, takes note of new approaches and changing emphases in this field since 1983. In 1997, the book won the Aaron Wildavsky Enduring Contribution Award of the Public Policy Section of the American Political Science Association. This award is reserved for books that are published in the last ten to twenty years that continue to influence the study of public policy.

Renewing Moral Theology – Christian Ethics as Action, Character and Grace

Renewing Moral Theology – Christian Ethics as Action, Character and Grace

Daniel A. Westberg

IVP Academic
2015
nidottu
While ethical issues are being raised with new urgency, Christians are increasingly unfamiliar with the moral grammar of their faith. The need to reengage the deep-down things of the Christian moral tradition has seldom been more urgent. Moral theology has a long history in the Catholic and Anglican traditions. The tradition of theological ethics, influenced by Aristotle by way of Aquinas, offers a distinct emphasis on the virtues and character formation. Now Daniel Westberg infuses this venerable ethical tradition with a biblical confidence in the centrality of the gospel and the role of the Holy Spirit in forming character, while also laying down a sound moral psychology for practical reason and ethical living. Christians—whether of Anglican, Catholic or of other traditions—interested in vigorously retrieving a great moral heritage, will find here common ground for ethical reflection and discipleship.

Extensible Processing for Archives and Special Collections

Extensible Processing for Archives and Special Collections

Daniel A. Santamaria

AMERICAN LIBRARY ASSOCIATION
2014
nidottu
A 2010 OCLC report found that an internet-accessible finding aid existed for only 44 percent of archival collections. Undescribed collections are essentially hidden from users, and much of the blame can be assigned to the strain of processing backlogs. Extensible processing offers an alternative, allowing collection managers to first establish a baseline level of access to all holdings, then conduct additional processing based on user demand and ongoing assessment. Adhering to archival principles and standards, this flexible approach emphasizes decision-making and prioritization. Santamaria, a recipient of the Society of American Archivists' 2013 Coker Award for innovative developments in archival description, has overseen the processing of thousands of linear feet of organizational records and personal papers. Showing how technical services staff can reassert control of collections while improving user experience, this invaluable resource:Lays out the six key principles of extensible processing, from creating a baseline level of access to all collections material and crafting standardized, structured descriptions to managing archival materials in the aggregateProvides a start-to-finish workflow adaptable to any collection, with practical tips such as using collection assessment surveys to reduce backlogAdvises how to limit physical handling and processing through a holistic approachExplains the use of Describing Archives: A Content Standard (DACS) and Encoded Archival Description (EAD)Covers recent developments in the digitization of archives, including alternative strategies like low-resolution scanning and repurposing existing metadataPresents several case studies, ranging from a one person shop to large universities, that include examples of processes, systems, software, and metadataArchivists and special collections librarians will find in this book the tools, confidence, and freedom to improve user experience through extensible processing.

Method and Order in Renaissance Philosophy of Nature

Method and Order in Renaissance Philosophy of Nature

Daniel A. Di Liscia; Eckhard Kessler

Ashgate Publishing Limited
1998
sidottu
The volume results from a seminar sponsored by the ’Foundation for Intellectual History’ at the Herzog August Bibliothek, Wolfenbüttel, in 1992. Starting with the theory of regressus as displayed in its most developed form by William Wallace, these papers enter the vast field of the Renaissance discussion on method as such in its historical and systematical context. This is confined neither to the notion of method in the strict sense, nor to the Renaissance in its exact historical limits, nor yet to the Aristotelian tradition as a well defined philosophical school, but requires a new scholarly approach. Thus - besides Galileo, Zabarella and their circles, which are regarded as being crucial for the ’emergence of modern science’ in the end of the 16th century - the contributors deal with the ancient and medieval origins as well as with the early modern continuity of the Renaissance concepts of method and with ’non-regressive’ methodologies in the various approaches of Renaissance natural philosophy, including the Lutheran and Calvinist traditions.

The Philosophy of Vegetarianism

The Philosophy of Vegetarianism

Daniel A. Dombrowski

University of Massachusetts Press
1984
nidottu
The idea that it is morally wrong to eat animals held sway for about one thousand years among some of the most prominent ancient Greek philosophers, including Pythagoras, Empedocles, Theophrastus, Plotinus, Plutarch, Porphyry, and, perhaps, Plato. The idea then died out for almost seventeen-hundred years. Since the 1970s, however, there has been a resurgence of interest in vegetarianism, marked by lively debates and the emergence of a substantial literature in the form of scholarly books and articles. Daniel A. Dombrowski uses the tools and insights of these contemporary debates in order to better understand the strengths and weaknesses of ancient philosophical vegetarianism. He also uses the wisdom of the Greek vegetarians as an Archimedean point from which to critique both the opponents and the defenders of contemporary philosophical vegetarianism. The book includes an annotated bibliography of the current debates in this burgeoning field of scholarship.

Martinez Celaya

Martinez Celaya

Daniel A. Siedell

Whale Star Press
2007
sidottu
Distributed by the University of Nebraska Press for Whale and Star Press Enrique Martínez Celaya's aesthetic project revives and reinterprets the classic Western metaphysical tradition relating aesthetics to ethics, the Beautiful to the Good and the True. His work embodies his belief that being a certain kind of artist means being a certain kind of person and that in and through art he gains clarity about himself and his relationship to the world. His project is thus profoundly ethical and, in important ways, spiritual. Through art Martínez Celaya reconciles himself to the world as he reconciles his past with his present and projects his future. This volume also participates in the process of reconciliation and projection by interpreting his work through the series, cycles, and projects, which include painting, sculpture, photographs, poetry, and prose that have defined it since the mid-1990s. Curator of the Sheldon Memorial Art Gallery, Daniel A. Siedell, has worked with Martínez Celaya on several projects and offers a radical commentary on his work, arguing that Martínez Celaya's ambitious aesthetic project is best understood as an embodiment of a religious Weltanschauung and as a search for that most elusive of religious virtues: hope. The complex cohesion of Martínez Celaya's work is further explored by other writers, who by placing it in different contexts reveal their own distinctive engagement with it. Art critic Thomas McEvilley, a philologist who writes about art, philosophy, and religion, explores how Martínez Celaya has combined Germanic feeling with a surrealist plastic vocabulary to "present a world." Literary critic and Paul Celan scholar John Felstiner traces the contours of an aesthetic lineage that includes Goya, Eliot, Celan, and Beethoven. Former Washington Post journalist and Hollywood producer and writer Christian Williams adopts the conventional artist's chronology to craft a powerful account of Martínez Celaya's life, which has become intimately entwined with his own.

By reading the word-for-word translation one develops a more intimate feel for the true meanings of the verses.
