Gender Theories

At the beginning of the 21st century, the boundaries between men and women are still present, yet along new dividing lines. A “horizontal segregation” divides them between masculine and feminine professions. Women are paid less than their male colleagues, even when they are equally qualified. A “vertical segregation” on the other hand makes access to prestigious positions more difficult for women than it is for men. How is it possible to explain such differences? Based on the emblematic paradigm of artistic professions the paper comments on the basic analyses developed in the framework of gender studies over the past twenty years. On the basis of the research conducted by the author on French women in jazz music, the paper will analyze key French and Anglo-Saxon gender theories on the gender-work nexus.

The Relationship

Abstract: The feminist model of interpretation developed rapidly at the around the 21st century. The majority of feminist criticized the centrality of men in interpreting Qurán. They argued that the presence of gender bias applied by the interpreters which is still dominated by men. Therefore, it was shaped the understanding paradigm of the Qur'an and Islam in general. On the other hand, secular and Muslim feminists, Muslim feminist scholars are not discarding Islam itself. They refer to the Qur'an and the Sunnah of the Prophet to support their claim that the Qur'an is required to be reinterpreted. This study aims to scrutinize the concept of gender equality in Islam in the perspective of hermeneutic philosophy proposed by Muhammad Syahrur. This study tried to reveal   how the relationship between men and women really is in Islam, whether the views of past scholars are still relevant in placing status of men and women. It employed a hermeneutic analysis approach. Referring to Syahrur's hermeneutics, researcher critically dissect the relationships between men and women in Islam, and utilize contemporary readings on them. Lastly, it is expected that the result of the study is able to produce a new rational about gender in Islam contextually and in accordance with the demand of society.ملخص:من القرن العشرين إلى القرن الحادي والعشرين،تطور نمط التأويل النسوي بسرعة. غالبية المترجمين النسوي، سواء كان ذكرا أو أنثى، تنتقد أغلبية المترجمين النسويين، سواء كانوا ذكوراً أم أنثى، مركزية الرجال في تفسير القرآن الكريم ويؤكدون على الحجة القائلة بأن تفسير التحيز الجنسي لا يزال يهيمن عليه الرجال ، وقد شكل معظمهم نموذج فهم القرآن والإسلام بشكل عام.  بخلاف النسويات العلمانيات، لا ترفض النسويات المسلمات الإسلام نفسه. بدلا من ذلك ، فإنهم يشيرون إلى القرآن والسنة النبوية لدعم ادعائهم بأن القرآن يحتاج إلى إعادة تفسير. يحاول هذا البحث على وجه التحديد دراسة واستكشاف مفهوم المساواة بين الجنسين في الإسلام ، خاصة في منظور التفكير التأويلي) الهرمنيوطيقا (لمحمد شحرور. يحلل هذا البحث العلاقة الحقيقية بين الرجل والمرأة في الإسلام ، وما إذا كانت وجهات نظر الباحثين السابقين لا تزال ذات صلة بتحديد وضع الرجال والنساء. بعبارة أخرى، تحاول هذه الدراسة أن تجعل القراءة المعاصرة لمفهوم المساواة بين الجنسين في الإسلام، والذي يشير بالتحديد إلى التفكير التأويلي) الهرمنيوطيقا (لمحمد شحرور. على هذا الأساس، تستخدم هذه الدراسة نهج التحليل التأويلي من خلال تأويلات شحرور، يقوم الباحثبتشريح العلاقات بين الرجال والنساء في الإسلام ، وإجراء قراءات معاصرة بشأنهم. حتى يكون قادرا على إنتاج تفكير جديد حول الجنس في الإسلام والذي يكون أكثر سياقًا ووفقًا لتطور الزمنAbstrak: Sejak abad ke-20 hingga abad ke-21, model penafsiran feminis berkembang pesat.

AbstractThis paper explores a central paradox in the aims of the archaeology of the contemporary past as they have been articulated by its practitioners. On the one hand, its aim has been expressed as one of making the familiar ‘unfamiliar’, of distancing the observer from their own material world; a work of alienation. On the other hand, it has also aimed to make the past more accessible and egalitarian; to recover lost, subaltern voices and in this way to close the distance between past and present. I suggest that this paradox has stymied its development and promoted a culture of self-justification for a subfield which has already become well established within archaeology over the course of three decades. I argue that this paradox arises from archaeology's relationship with modernity and the past itself, as a result of its investment in the modernist trope of archaeology-as-excavation and the idea of a past which is buried and hidden. One way of overcoming this paradox would be to emphasize an alternative trope of archaeology-as-surface-survey and a process of assembling/reassembling, and indeed to shift away from the idea of an ‘archaeology of the contemporary past’ to speak instead of an archaeology ‘in and of the present’. This would reorient archaeology so that it is seen primarily as a creative engagement with the present and only subsequently as a consideration of the intervention of traces of the past within it. It is only by doing this that archaeology will develop into a discipline which can successfully address itself to the present and future concerns of contemporary societies. Such a move not only has implications for archaeologies of the present and recent past, but concerns the very nature and practice of archaeology as a discipline in its broadest sense in the 21st century.

The draughtsman of a foundation charter in the century after the Norman Conquest had the choice of two distinct diplomatic forms, each of which was a legacy from earlier times. He might cast it in the shape of a letter, authenticated by the seal of the donor, informing the superior lord or the relevant bishop of what had been done: or he might use the more ancient, solemn and pretentious form of the diploma, authenticated not by the seal but by the sign of the cross made by the hands of the witnesses. In either case he would be careful to include a list of witnesses who could prove the grant; and the most obvious difference between them would lie in this—that the letter referred to the act as already past (sciatis me dedisse…), while the diploma described the actual moment of gift (do—ortrado—deo et abbati…). To the latter an exact date was appropriate—hence the elaborate dating of the Anglo-Saxonlandbocs:for the letter, on the other hand, a date was superfluous, since the act was recorded as a thing of the past. Whichever form he chose, his purpose was the same, viz. to supply evidence for the remote future of a grant made verbally. There is no question about this so far as letters or writ charters are concerned: for not only are they often addressed to all men present andfuture, but they sometimes include preambles which leave us in no doubt as to the current conception of the written word.

‘Newness which never perishes’? Schoenberg’s ambivalent reception of Haydn

Music Tradition

This paper explores Arnold Schoenberg’s curious ambivalence towards Haydn. Schoenberg recognized Haydn as an important figure in the German serious music tradition, but never closely examined or clearly articulated Haydn’s influence and import on his own musical style and ethos, as he did with many other major composers. This paper argues that Schoenberg failed to explicitly recognize Haydn as a major influence because he saw Haydn as he saw himself, namely as a somewhat ungainly, paradoxical figure, with one foot in the past and one in the future. In his voluminous writings on music, Haydn is mentioned by Schoenberg far less frequently than Bach, Mozart, or Beethoven, and his music appears rarely as examples in Schoenberg’s theoretical texts. When Schoenberg does talk about Haydn’s music, he invokes — with tacit negativity — its accessibility, counterpoising it with more recondite music, such as Beethoven’s, or his own. On the other hand, Schoenberg also praises Haydn for his complex, irregular phrasing and harmonic exploration. Haydn thus appears in Schoenberg’s writings as a figure invested with ambivalence: a key member of the First Viennese triumvirate, but at the same time he is curiously phantasmal, and is accorded a peripheral place in Schoenberg’s version of the canon and his own musical genealogy.

Real Growth

Countries with positive per capita real growth are characterised by positive national savings—including government savings, increases in government investment, and strong increases in private savings and investment. On the other hand, countries with negative per capita real growth tend to be characterised by declines in savings and investment. During the past several decades, Kenya’s emerging economy has undergone many changes and economic performance has been epitomised by periods of stability, decline, or unevenness. This article discusses and analyses the record of economic performance and public finance in Kenya during the period 1960‒2010, as well as policies and other factors that have influenced that record in this emerging economy.

European Migration

This chapter discusses social exclusion in European migration from a gendered and historical perspective. It discusses how from this perspective the idea of a crisis in migration was repeatedly constructed. Gender is used in this chapter in a dual way: attention is paid to differences between men and women in (refugee) migration, and to differences between men and women as advocates and claim makers for migrant rights. There is a dilemma—recognized mostly for recent decades—that on the one hand refugee women can be used to generate empathy, and thus support. On the other hand, emphasis on women as victims forces them into a victimhood role and leaves them without agency. This dilemma played itself out throughout the twentieth century. It led to saving the victims, but not to solving the problem. It fortified rather than weakened the idea of a crisis.

When one hears the term “ground cover,” one immediately thinks of “grasses.” This perception is so deep-seated that paleobotanists even have been overheard to proclaim that “there was no ground cover before grasses.” Today grasses are so predominant in many environments that this perception is perpetuated easily. On the other hand, it is difficult to imagine the absence or lack of ground cover prior to the mid-Tertiary. We tested the hypothesis that different forms of ground cover existed in the past against examples from the Recent and the fossil record (Table 1). The Recent data were obtained from a large number of sources including those in the ecological, horticultural, and microbiological literature. Other data were derived from our knowledge of Precambrian life, sedimentology and paleosols, and the plant fossil record, especially in situ floras and fossil “monocultures.” Some of the data are original observations, but many others are from the literature. A detailed account of these results will be presented elsewhere (Pfefferkorn and LePage, in preparation).

The Church

A strange contrast exists in the status of the Christian Church in the past seventy years. On the one hand the Church has clearly lost some of the ground which once appeared to be safely within its possession. On the other hand it has become more widely spread geographically and, when all mankind is taken into consideration, more influential in shaping human affairs than ever before in its history. In a paper as brief as this must of necessity be, space can be had only for the sketching of the broad outlines of this paradox and for suggesting a reason for it. If details were to be given, a large volume would be required. Perhaps, however, we can hope to do enough to point out one of the most provocative and important set of movements in recent history.

When I agreed to present the article as a vehicle for discussion at a session at the EAA's annual meeting in Zadar, Croatia, I decided to approach the question of a European archaeology from what I considered to be the three organizing pillars of archaeological practice: heritage, theory and publications. Heritage is the dominant organizational/legislative framework for archaeological practice, and it is where most of the money is spent. Theory, on the other hand, organizes most of our interpretations of the past, while publications are still the most common way of presenting the results of both heritage work (mostly excavations) and interpretations of that work. In this way I hoped to have encircled the dominant parameters for a diagnosis of the archaeological landscapes in Europe. I assumed that there might be some correlation between the three, and that such observed common trends within two or more variables would strengthen the argument, to paraphrase processual jargon.

AbstractOn the rise over the past 20 years has been ‘moderate supernaturalism’, the view that while a meaningful life is possible in a world without God or a soul, a much greater meaning would be possible only in a world with them. William Lane Craig can be read as providing an important argument for a version of this view, according to which only with God and a soul could our lives have an eternal, as opposed to temporally limited, significance since we would then be held accountable for our decisions affecting others’ lives. I present two major objections to this position. On the one hand, I contend that if God existed and we had souls that lived forever, then, in fact, all our lives would turn out the same. On the other hand, I maintain that, if this objection is wrong, so that our moral choices would indeed make an ultimate difference and thereby confer an eternal significance on our lives (only) in a supernatural realm, then Craig could not capture the view, aptly held by moderate supernaturalists, that a meaningful life is possible in a purely natural world.
