Cultural Relativity of Moral Precepts
The foundation of most intellectual discourse is Western-centric to the exclusion of other views. This includes ideal patterns of social interaction, preference for aesthetic, accepted norms and values, and the concepts of dignity, respectability, morality and ethics. Such a position is culturally myopic. Western cultural influence colors all of them including moral precepts. The assumption is ...
متن کاملWhat is general relativity?
General relativity is a set of physical and geometric principles, which lead to a set of (Einstein) field equations that determine the gravitational field and to the geodesic equations that describe light propagation and the motion of particles on the background. But open questions remain, including: what is the scale on which matter and geometry are dynamically coupled in the Einstein equation...
متن کاملWhat Is Categorical Relativity?
The categorical relativity is a groupoid category of massive bodies in mutual motions. The relative velocity is defined to be the basis-free and coordinate-free binary morphism. In categorical relativity there is no need to distinguish separately the constant relative velocities (special relativity) from the variable accelerated velocities, hence the categorical relativity goes beyond boundary ...
متن کاملexploring “relativity”
art critique, the analysis of artworks in formal procedure, is the path which connects the public to the art productions; and although its main aim is to judge the piece, right or wrong, delightful or ugly, the main benefit of this effort is to make the subject comprehensible. to achieve this goal, the art critic should interpret the subject thoroughly, relying on the art production as the main...
متن کاملStrong-coupled Relativity without Relativity
GR can be interpreted as a theory of evolving 3-geometries. A recent such formulation, the 3-space approach of Barbour, Foster and Ó Murchadha, also permits the construction of a limited number of other theories of evolving 3-geometries, including conformal gravity and strong gravity. In this paper, we use the 3-space approach to construct a 1-parameter family of theories which generalize stron...
