Als der Künstler Gregor Schneider im Frühjahr 2008 ein Kunstprojekt ankündigte, bei dem ein Mensch, der im Sterben liegt, im Rahmen einer künstlerischen Performance ausgestellt werden sollte, waren die Reaktionen überwiegend äußerst kritisch. Während Gregor Schneider sein Projekt explizit als einen humanistischen Beitrag verstand, der sich gegen die Tabuisierung des Sterbens richten sollte, sahen die meisten Kommentatoren darin eine pietätslose Preisgabe des Sterbenden an die voyeuristischen Blicke des Publikums. Vor dem Hintergrund dieser Diskussion geht der Aufsatz der Frage nach, was es bedeutet, den Tod eines Menschen wie ein künstlerisches Werk zu inszenieren, und ordnet den Anspruch einer nicht nur ethischen, sondern auch ästhetischen Selbstbestimmung angesichts des Todes in die humanistische Tradition des modernen Werkgedankens ein.<br><br>In the spring of 2008, the artist Georg Schneider announced an art performance with a mortally ill person. Most of the responses to this art project were very critical. While the artist argued that the exhibition of a dying person should be understood as a humanistic intervention against the social taboo of death, commentators often criticized the exhibition as voyeuristic. Based on this discussion, the article explores what it means to stage a dying person as a piece of art and investigates the historical conditions of this project by locating the longing for ethic and aesthetic self-determination within the humanistic tradition of the modern concept of the work of art.

And Control

Autonomy is associated with intellectual self-preservation and self-determination. Shame, on the contrary, bears a loss of approval, self-esteem and control. Being afflicted with shame, we suffer from social dependencies that by no means have been freely chosen. Moreover, undergoing various experiences of shame, our power of reflection turns out to be severly limited owing to emotional embarrassment. In both ways, shame seems to be bound to heteronomy. This situation strongly calls for conceptual clarification. For this purpose, we introduce a threestage model of self-determination which comprises i) autonomy as capability of decision-making relating to given sets of choices, ii) self-commitment in terms of setting and harmonizing goals, and iii) self-realization in compliance with some range of persistently approved goals. Accordingly, the presuppositions and distinctive marks of shame-experiences are made explicit. Within this framework, we explore the intricate relation between autonomy and shame by focusing on two questions: on what conditions could conventional behavior be considered as self-determined? How should one characterize the varying roles of actors that are involved in typical cases of shame-experiences? In this connection, we advance the thesis that the social dynamics of shame turns into ambiguous positions relating to motivation, intentional content,and actors’ roles.

There is sufficient evidence that suggests Student as Partners’ (SaP) practices promote student motivation, engagement, and learning outcomes. This study attempts to understand the underlying mechanism of SaP and its potential to provide the motivational foundation for the students who engage in it and produce quality outcomes. We employ the self-determination theory’s (SDT) framework to explain how the processes of partnership lead to students’ psychological need satisfaction (autonomy, competence, and relatedness) in order to develop and maintain motivation. The data for this proposition was utilised from the two case studies (Author et al 2018; Author et al., 2017) that were conducted in partnership with students. The three constructs, autonomy, competence, and relatedness served as the framework that guided the data analysis. The findings establish that the social contextual factors posited by SDT for students’ need satisfaction fittingly resonate with the principles and practices of SaP. Implications for SaP practitioners are discussed on how SaP can motivate students and sustain engagement

This chapter makes the case that Proust's Recherche offers a way of perceiving how our pleasure in aesthetic objects (novels, septets) can, when viewed from the appropriate angle, reveal the topography of the social world through which we must all necessarily find our way. How might the experience of a particularly social level of reality be communicated in a novel?  The social world can be understood in Bourdieusian terms as a space of immanent tendencies, one in which some people are more likely to follow one kind of social trajectory than another. Proust’s novel shares with Bourdieu’s sociology an interest in how a work of art, being the product of a social world, can on occasion serve as an instrument that reveals something of the immanent structures that contribute to the shape of the social topography around it.  It does so by producing differential effects on its public. The Vinteuil Septet is presented in the Recherche as a work that has this kind of differential social effect:  by producing different effects on different listeners it becomes a diagnostic instrument revealing the social topography around it.

This paper argues for a dilemma: you can accept liberalism or immigration restrictions, but not both. More specifically, the standard arguments for restricting freedom of movement apply equally to textbook liberal freedoms, such as freedom of speech, religion, occupation and reproductive choice. We begin with a sketch of liberalism’s core principles and an argument for why freedom of movement is plausibly on a par with other liberal freedoms. Next we argue that, if a state’s right to self-determination grounds a prima facie right to restrict immigration, then it also grounds a prima facie right to restrict freedom of speech, religion, sexual choice and more. We then suggest that the social costs associated with freedom of immigration are also costs associated with occupational choice, speech and reproduction. Thus, a state’s interest in reducing these costs gives it prima facie justification to restrict not only immigration but also other core liberal freedoms. Moreover, we rebut the objection that, even if the standard arguments for a prima facie right to restrict immigration also support a prima facie right to restrict liberal freedoms generally, there are differences that render immigration restrictions – but not restrictions on speech, religion, etc. – justified all things considered. In closing, we suggest that the theoretical price of supporting immigration restrictions – viz., compromising a commitment to liberal principles – is too steep to pay.

The paper focuses on the results of a qualitative study of lifestyles among young Ulyanovsk workers conducted in 2017. The authors consider in detail how the character and the work schedule structure the daily life of young blue-collar workers and determine their recreation activities. The article examines the modes of adoption and resistance to the established lifestyles and the choice of alternative strategies. The paper challenges the view of young blue-collar workers as a marginalized group in the social hierarchy. The authors argue that the researchers’ moralistic attitude towards the group hinders objective analysis of ongoing changes. The most important of these changes is reassessment of labor’s value and manual occupations and perception of them as a place for self-determination rather than an ultimate life choice.

Purpose Using self-determination theory and individual social responsibility’s (ISRs) association with pure social entrepreneurship, this study aims to answer the following question: How and why have the different actors responded to the crisis caused by the pandemic? Design/methodology/approach Qualitative research (multiple case studies) was adopted, resorting to interviewees with seven economic and non-economic actors in the Portugal context. Findings The results obtained, using MAXQDA software, show that those carrying out actions of social responsibility have a high degree of self-determination and intrinsic motivation, and are true social entrepreneurs, which lets them improve the well-being of those around them. In addition, these individuals feel good about themselves by performing these actions, as they measure their performance by the social impact of their actions on society in general. Practical implications This study suggest there is a high awareness amongst people to exercise that responsibility in a voluntary way, through humanitarian initiatives and campaigns brought about especially by an unprecedented pandemic. In practice, people joining these initiatives motivate many others towards the causes, creating the will to continue in the future and satisfy unmet needs provoked by social crises. Originality/value This study is innovative because it is related to filling the gaps identified, mainly by carrying out an empirical study about ISR, rather than that of firms, where studies are more common.
