        Philosophie und Begründung
        September 1987

        Philosophie und Begründung

        Herausgegeben vom Forum für Philosophie, Bad Homburg. Wolfgang R. Köhler, Wolfgang Kuhlmann und Peter Rohs

        by Peter Rohs, Wolfgang R. Köhler, Wolfgang Kuhlmann, Forum für Philosophie Bad Homburg, Wolfgang Kuhlmann

        Das allgemeine Klima ist gegenwärtig für eine Philosophie des Kantischen Typs, sei sie verstanden als Philosophie, die zentriert ist um das Rechtfertigungsproblem und die entsprechenden Disziplinen – Erkenntniskritik, Sprachkritik, Logik, Wissenschaftstheorie –, sei es auch nur begriffen als Philosophie, die dem Rechtfertigungsproblem und den entsprechenden Disziplinen relativ großes Gewicht einräumt, bei weitem nicht mehr so günstig wie noch vor etwa zwanzig Jahren. Sowohl die Möglichkeit wie auch Sinn und Nutzen philosophischer Grundlegungsversuche, philosophischer Begründung oder gar Letztbegründung wurden wirkungsvoll von den an Einfluß ständig gewinnenden Strömungen der Hermeneutik, des Neopragmatismus, des Neokonstrukturalismus, des radikalen Fallibilismus in Frage gestellt und mit alledem zugleich die bisher vorherrschenden Konzeptionen von Philosophie als (z. B. transzendental-philosophischer oder auch formalsemantischer) Grundlagendisziplin, von Philosophie als – der Idee nach – strenger Wissenschaft, oder auch nur von Philosophie als Kritik. Das ist Grund genug, dem Problem »Philosophie und Begründung«, der Frage also nach der Möglichkeit philosophischer Begründung und dem Sinn von Begründung für die Philosophie, ja für den Begriff von Rationalität, gesondert nachzugehen.

        Martin Heidegger: Innen- und Außenansichten
        May 1989

        Martin Heidegger: Innen- und Außenansichten

        Herausgegeben vom Forum für Philosophie Bad Homburg

        by Peter Rohs, Forum für Philosophie Bad Homburg, Siegfried Blasche, Wolfgang R. Köhler, Wolfgang Kuhlmann

        Der hundertste Geburtstag Martin Heideggers im Jahre 1989 wird durch die häufig vordergründig geführten personalisierten Kontroversen um dessen politisches Engagement für die nationalsozialistische Bewegung überschattet. Es hieße, die immer noch, jedenfalls im philosophischen Lebensfalle, zu unterstellende Einheit von personaler Entscheidung und werkimmanenter Aussage zu verletzen, wollte man Heidegger im Zuge einer eingeschränkten Entmündigung allein durch den Hinweis auf seine außer Frage stehende philosophiegeschichtliche Bedeutung gewissermaßen »entlasten«. Das Verständnis und erst recht die Beurteilung seiner »Entscheidung« im Jahre 1933 muß den weitgespannten Ausgang am Werk selbst nehmen, und zwar in dessen Bedingungen, seinen Kerngedanken und an der Relation zu gleichzeitigen, konkurrierenden philosophischen Denkansätzen. – Die Beiträge dieses Bandes vereinigen im Horizont von Heideggers Antwort auf das »Ereignis des Führers« (Ebeling) »Innenansichten« (Gethmann, Kettering, Merker, Mörchen, Seel), Bedingungs- und Rezeptionsanalysen (Apel, Barash, Pöggeler) und Untersuchungen zum Verhältnis der Philosophien Heideggers, Adornos und der Postmoderne (Brunkhorst, Früchtl, Polti).

        Kants transzendentale Deduktion und die Möglichkeit von Transzendentalphilosophie
        March 1988

        Kants transzendentale Deduktion und die Möglichkeit von Transzendentalphilosophie

        by Peter Rohs, Forum für Philosophie Bad Homburg, Siegfried Blasche, Wolfgang R. Köhler, Wolfgang Kuhlmann, Wolfgang R. Köhler

        Man bemüht sich, Kants schwierige Gedankengänge mit den inzwischen gewonnenen begrifflichen Mitteln zu entwirren und ihnen eine überprüfbare Ordnung zu geben, um die dunkle transzendentalphilosophische Denkart gleichsam zu lichten und begrifflich zu domestizieren. Dabei erweist sich für manchen eine mehr oder minder eingreifende »Kant-Transformation« (Apel) als unumgänglich. Kant-Interpretation, Kant-Rekonstruktion und systematisches Denken gehen dabei Hand in Hand. Über den Umfang des Interesses an Kantischer Transzendentalphilosophie informiert die diesem Band beigegebene Bibliographie.

        Handbook of Phytosanitary Risk Management

        Theory and Practice

        by Charles Yoe, Robert Griffin, Stephanie Bloem

        Phytosanitary risk management is essential to the global economy as well as the world's ability to feed itself. This book is about understanding the fundamentals of phytosanitary risk management for trade and non-trade issues, and how to manage those risks in an effective and efficient manner that is consistent with the international regulatory framework. Its purpose is to provide the international phytosanitary community and its principal stakeholders with a strong foundation in risk management concepts and a thorough guide to best practices. Starting with the conceptual background necessary for understanding risk management, this book then covers a risk management model with a detailed description of the structure and processes necessary for best practice risk management in the global economy. This is followed by an in-depth look at the continuum of phytosanitary measures with a laser-like focus on key risk management issues, and the book concludes with a final section devoted to an examination of the most compelling risk management issues of the day. This book is: - A comprehensive exposition of phytosanitary risk management. - Valuable both to the experienced risk manager and to those getting started in the field. - Written by a team of experts with extensive professional phytosanitary work experience and knowledge of plant health. Written for professionals, practitioners and policy makers who work in the international trade of plants and plant products and allied fields, this book provides the global phytosanitary community and its principal stakeholders with a practical guide to best risk management practices.

        Managing Risk in Agriculture

        Managing Risk in Agriculture

        A Development Perspective

        by Ashok K. Mishra, Subal C. Kumbhakar, Gudbrand Lien

        The book addresses and documents farmers' risks in developing and emerging economies. It draws lessons from experimental economics on measuring risk preferences, attitudes, gender differences in managing risks, and risk management strategies in countries across Africa and Asia. It argues policy makers, especially in emerging economies, need a better understanding of farmers' attitudes toward risk and choices of risk management strategies when designing policies to support production agriculture. The book includes chapters on three themes: understanding risk attitudes and preferences; using experimental economics to measure risk, preferences, and risk management strategies; and understanding climate change, risk, and risk management. The book critically examines the currently held beliefs about risk preference, attitudes, and empirical estimation of risk management strategies, emphasizing developing and emerging economies (DEE). "The agricultural development space is an inherently risky one and this welcome collection belatedly helps to plug an important hole." Jock R. Anderson, Emeritus Professor of Agricultural Economics, University of New England, Armidale, Australia "Over time, agricultural production practices have evolved, as have the markets and value chains for food and agricultural products. A constant consideration, however, and one that continues to define agriculture worldwide, is risk. The risks that impinge on agriculture come in all shapes and sizes. Of course, production risks are ubiquitous. But so are market risks. And the same is true for macroeconomic and financial risks and the risks associated with an evolving climate. This book will be a valuable, comprehensive resource for any applied economist desiring to understand the risk management principles relevant to modern food and agricultural systems." Matthew Holt, Prof. and head of the Department of Agricultural and Applied Economics, Virginia Tech University, Blacksburg, VA, USA.

        The Heart of Time: The Forgotten Stories

        by Peetz, Monika

        Everything is lost. Lena’s enemies have taken over the invisible city and launched a witch hunt for time travellers. Together with Bobbie, Lena takes refuge in the future and tries desperately to find other rebels. The near future is already very different compared to her present life: in 2031 climate change is undeniable and people pay by using implanted memory chips, which is frightening enough. Then her chronometer picks up a faint signal – from Dante. Lena can hardly wait to see him again. But can she be sure the signal is genuine?  Things take a dark turn when she is visited by a group of time tourists; in a distant future, time travel is big business. But no one seems to care about the chaos and damage this kind of tourism can cause – or even that it could destroy humanity itself.   For Lena, everything is on the line: the existence of the invisible city, the fate of humanity’s forgotten stories – and even her love for Dante.     12+ years The finale of this enthralling fantasy trilogy.

        The King of Trash

        by Donald Willerton

        The plague of homelessness runs through it like a pulsing vein. There is murder―and bodies galore. There is unhesitating genocide. There is an escape from certain death that will haunt you.And yet The King of Trash is a story of tenderness, of ethical struggle, and of deeply bonded humanity.In his latest novel―and his first to move beyond the highly successful Mogi Franklin middle-reader mysteries―author Don Willerton intertwines modern-day themes of transcendent importance through a unique and intriguing tale of mystery, adventure, and courage.Early readers have sometimes had nightmares, but yet The King of Trash is ultimately redeemed by its heart. It begins with a newspaper reporter setting out to interview a former school mate who's now become one of the world greatest scientists―and one of its richest men. Before long, though, we are enmeshed in a web of awful and expedient “facts” building to a twenty-first-century morality tale in which no one can escape the hard and bitter decisions of the “real” world. And yet at the end, we learn, is the one central truth, the only remnant left to sustain Willerton's fascinating and vivid characters―and all the rest of us alive on Earth as well.

        War Train

        by Donald Willerton

        To Mogi Franklin, it simply seemed like a better summer job than stocking supermarket shelves in Bluff, Utah. But the opportunity to help with his sister Jennifer's architectural assessment of the newly refurbished, once-grand-and-glorious hotel and restaurant in Las Vegas, New Mexico, turned out to be much more―the kind of brain-testing mystery he loved and excelled at, along with a heavy serving of adventure and danger.The mystery was more than seventy-five years old: the robbery of a local bank by two gunmen who'd walked out the door with thick stacks of hundred-dollar bills and then simply vanished. The link with the present-day hotel suddenly appeared in an unexpected find hidden in the “ton of junk” from an unknown attic room uncovered during the building's reconstruction. There among the old clothes, books, papers, and other remnants from the early days of World War II, Mogi finds a clue, then another and then more, leading far back in the hotel's unique history.As articles in a sensationalistic local newspaper seem to tie the clues together―and lead as well to false trails and blind alleys―Mogi digs deeper into the fascinating history of the Castañeda Hotel and its storied Harvey House restaurant to unravel the untold tale linking the robbery to a mother's love for the twin sons she was never able to give enough to.

        The Secret of La Rosa

        by Donald Willerton

        It was just a short cross-country ski outing over the Christmas break for Mogi Franklin and his sister, Jennifer–until they find themselves suddenly caught in a vicious blizzard. Near collapse, they ski into a mysterious valley with an ancient hacienda, a busy Spanish family, and a village with no electricity, no plumbing, no cars, no phones, and definitely no Walmart.A vacation that began a few days earlier helping his Granddad clean and decorate for a huge family celebration had now become a mind-boggling mystery. And young Mogi's anguish trying to come to terms with his grandmother's death from cancer the previous Christmas turns to fear and danger when he is accused of stealing a religious icon the town prizes above all others–and which holds the key to solving an ancient legend of missing Spanish gold.It's the latest book of the exciting Mogi Franklin Mysteries–shadowy figures, secret societies, a town like no other. Is this all reality or illusion? Mogi must find the answers, even as he struggles with the memory of his grandmother's death and the mysteries of faith it brought him which he now must answer as well.
