We have added a high precision drift chamber to the Mark II detector at PEP. The design of the device has been optimized for measuring vertex topologies as accurately as possible. This has involved placing wires within 10 cm of the beam line, using a beryllium beam pipe as the inner gas wall of the chamber, and improving the accuracy of the drift-time measurement. The chamber operates reliably ...

3 "I believe that what may be called classic social analysis is a definable and usable set of traditions; that its essential feature is the concern with historical social structures; and that its problems are of direct relevance to urgent public issues and insistent human troubles. "-C. Wright Mills (1959) 4 Acknowledgments I wish to thank my colleagues, particularly Drs. David Newcomb and Lill...

While a considerable secondary literature revolves around the issue of whether Marx believed that the concepts of “justice” and “injustice” – and hence, by implication, other comparable moral terms as well – had any non-relative meaning, there is really no doubt that a strong moral vision, with emphasis on the evil aspects of the capitalist system as a system of exploitation, undergirded all of...

Bruno Bauer replies to them: No one in Germany is politically emancipated. We ourselves are not free. How are we to free you? You Jews are egoists if you demand a special emancipation for yourselves as Jews. As Germans, you ought to work for the political emancipation of Germany, and as human beings, for the emancipation of mankind, and you should feel the particular kind of your oppression and...

The idea of community has lurked in various forms in organization studies since the field’s inception, but its recent prominence as a critical precondition for innovation makes urgent the resolution of two theoretical puzzles. Both puzzles can be stated in the terms suggested by Tönnies’ classic contrast of Gemeinschaft and Gesellschaft, community and association. First, it is difficult to reco...

Este texto apresenta reflexões que fundamentam o debate sobre método materialismo histórico-dialético. O objetivo do trabalho é compreender a produção conhecimento em Marx e suas contribuições para campo epistemológico. Para isso, adota-se pesquisa bibliográfica como metodologia buscando identificar, partir das obras de (Marx, 2013; 2011; 2008; 2004) outros autores (Tonet, Chasin, 2009; Netto, ...
