Careless Mining And Timber Harvesting: Kantian Theory
[ send me this paper ]
6 pages in length. Careless mining and timber harvesting in tropical rain forests can destroy entire species of flora and fauna, create soil problems, and even threaten the existence of primitive people who are reliant on what the forests provide. Yet in a number of countries business entrepreneurs are exploiting the rain forests for profit. Kantian theory addresses just such self-seeking behavior, inasmuch as the philosopher believed that such tremendous devastation is not accomplished for the greater good. According to Kantian duty, those who compromise their ethical responsibilities do so in disrespect for the understanding of universal duty. The writer discusses Kantian theory as it relates to careless mining and timber harvesting. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

Carl L. Becker's "The Heavenly City Of The Eighteenth-Century Philosophers"
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. This paper provides a comprehensive overview of Carl Becker's (2003) argument pertaining to eighteenth-century philosophers and their misguided understanding of their role in perpetuating medieval philosophies rather than those that reflected modern thought. Main points include examining how philosophes supported the very same beliefs as the Christians they toiled to have discredited for their convictions, providing evidentiary support for the argument's validity by citing numerous instances where this interpretive discrepancy is demonstrated during the Enlightenment, the reinforcement his evidence provides the argument, as well as the influences that guided his line of reasoning. No additional sources cited.

Cartesian Mind/Body Dualism
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page research paper/essay that examines what two articles say about dualism and Descartes and then offers the writer's personal observations. Dualism maintains that the mind and the body are distinctly separate entities (Calef). The dualism espoused by Rene Descartes expresses this philosophy in its "most radical form" (Palmer 114). First by looking at what author Donald Palmer has to say about dualism in his text Does the Center Hold? (1996) and then comparing this with further comment by Scott Calef of Ohio Wesleyan University, this examination lays the foundation for formulating personal observations on the validity of this philosophical perspective. Bibliography lists 2 sources.
