Holocaust: processing the past through a gendered lens

Liberalism appears to have two meanings; one having an ethical component, which strives to allow individuals to fulfil their capabilities and be full members of society; the other, simply being a market-like relation between consumers. In this thesis I argue that there is a meaning left to liberalism other than enforcing the minimal rules of the competitive arena and that liberalism must encompass the new problems of growing unemployment and poverty in liberal democratic societies. This thesis considers modern liberal thinkers who address the meaning of liberalism and the contemporary crises faced in Western democratic nations. These thinkers, Guy Debord, John Kenneth Galbraith, Norberto Bobbio, and Ralf Dahrendorf, provide a convenient overall perspective on the

in 1994 to pursue a Masters ’ degree in Educational Evaluation and Research (EER), conducting her thesis under the supervision of Prof. Shlomo S. Sawilowsky. Subsequently, she earned her Ph. D. in EER in 1999, with Prof. Sawilowsky serving as her major professor. Dr. Fahoome became an adjunct instructor at WSU in 1999. Her dissertation results appeared in JMASM (2002, Twenty nonparametric statistics and their large-sample approximations, p. 248-268), a massive undertaking that became the definitive source on this topic. In 2003, she co-authored (with Prof. Sawilowsky) Statistics through Monte Carlo Simulation with Fortran

p osterior Analytics (APo) is Aristotle's only thorough treatment of scientific method. This granddaddy of all philosophies of science takes mathematics as its model. Its meta-language--deduction of necessary truths from axioms, hypotheses, and definitions--is close to what we find in Euclid, probably because Peripatetic philosophy of science somehow went into making geometry a 'finished ' science in Hellenistic Alexandria. For Aristotle all genuine sciences (mathematics included) move from establishing that an attribute holds of a subject o finding middle terms that reveal why it holds. These middle terms meet the necessity required for scientific knowledge (episteme) when the con-nection they secure between premises and conclusion is both definitional and explanatory (APo 1.2b19-23). We know why a predication holds when we know what the subject essentially is. We know, for example, why eclipses happen as soon as we learn that n 'eclipse is screening by the earti~ ' (APo 2.8.93b6-7). A sr.rong consensus has held that Aristotle's prolific biological re-
