Mode Of Production

This article attempts to provide a breakthrough which I call mode of production theory. This theory will be employed to analyze the contemporary phenomenon of radical Islamism. The mode of production theory is meant to bridge the two clashing theoretical paradigms in social sciences and humanities, i.e., Weberian and Marxian. Despite its bridging nature, the paper argues that the two cannot be merged within one single thread. This is because each paradigm has its own epistemological basis which is irreconcilable to one another. Mostly adapted from Marx’s theory, the current theory of the mode of production covers five interrelated aspects, namely social, political, economic, cultural, and symbolic structures. If Marx’s mode of production theory heavily relies on a material and economic basis, the theory used in this paper accommodates cultural and symbolic structures that are Weberian in nature. Although the two paradigms can operate together, the strength of structure (Marxian) overpowers the strength of culture (Weberian). This paper further argues that such cultural-based aspects as ideology, norms, and values play as mobilizing factors under a big schematic dominant structure in the rise and development of the radical Islamist groups.

Chiral Lagrangian

Abstract We apply Hilbert series techniques to the enumeration of operators in the mesonic QCD chiral Lagrangian. Existing Hilbert series technologies for non-linear realizations are extended to incorporate the external fields. The action of charge conjugation is addressed by folding the $$ \mathfrak{su}(n) $$ su n Dynkin diagrams, which we detail in an appendix that can be read separately as it has potential broader applications. New results include the enumeration of anomalous operators appearing in the chiral Lagrangian at order p8, as well as enumeration of CP-even, CP-odd, C-odd, and P-odd terms beginning from order p6. The method is extendable to very high orders, and we present results up to order p16.(The title sequence is the number of independent C-even and P-even operators in the mesonic QCD chiral Lagrangian with three light flavors of quarks, at chiral dimensions p2, p4, p6, …)

Careful Design

The lack of precision of measurements with alternate currents, as compared with those using direct currents, is mainly due to the relative sensitiveness of the instruments available for such tests. The fact that the turning moment acting on the moving system depends in one case on the square of the current and in the other on the first power of the current, readily explains the high ratio between the currents needed to cause the minimum measurable deflection in the two cases, but this ratio is, nevertheless, most striking when a numerical comparison is actually made on some fair basis. The only likely way at present of improving alternate current instruments is to use iron cored electromagnets to increase the strength of the magnetic field. I have found that the difficulties due to varying permeability and hysteresis of the iron can be avoided by exciting the electromagnet in shunt. It proves possible, with careful design, to construct an electromagnet whose flux is connected with the exciting voltage by a strict mathematical law involving no variable physical properties like permeability, etc. Such an electromagnet is eminently suited for measuring purposes. The theoretical and experimental study of instruments constructed on this principle has brought out certain novel points which are set forth in the present paper. The first part discusses the mathematical relations of cyclic quantities having a common fundamental period, and constitutes a development of a method already published. This method is the only one known to me which is independent of assumptions in regard to the wave form of the quantities dealt with. The usual methods, which are based on the erroneous assumptions of sine law wave form, are not any simpler in working, and are most unsatisfactory when the accuracy of new results has to be critically examined. All alternate current measurements refer to mean squares or to mean products, and the natural method of obtaining the connections between such squares and products is to study the properties of quadratic functions of the variables. The earliest instance of this in alternate current theory was in connection with the “three voltmeter method.” Such processes lead to a very simple form of calculus appropriate to cyclic quantities.

Male Care

Explaining the evolution of male care has proved difficult. Recent theory predicts that female promiscuity and sexual selection on males inherently disfavour male care. In sharp contrast to these expectations, male-only care is often found in species with high extra-pair paternity and striking variation in mating success, where current theory predicts female-only care. Using a model that examines the coevolution of male care, female care and female choice; I show that inter-sexual selection can drive the evolution of male care when females are able to bias mating or paternity towards parental males. Surprisingly, female choice for parental males allows male care to evolve despite low relatedness between the male and the offspring in his care. These results imply that predicting how sexual selection affects parental care evolution will require further understanding of why females, in many species, either do not prefer or cannot favour males that provide care.

The Relationship

There is no current theory that explains the process of a fathers’ bonding with their infants born prematurely. Through meta-synthesis of 19 qualitative studies, we developed a conceptual framework to illustrate how fathers perceive the relationship with their premature infant formed over the first 18 months of life. It details the contextual factors that contribute to that process. Findings reveal a complex process comprised of five stages, derived from five core themes and related subthemes. Fathers progress through five sequential stages to establish their role as fathers and form emotional connections with their child. Stages include: (a) feeling alien and lacking emotional connection to the infant, (b) caregiving engagement and claiming the role as a father, (c) claiming the infant as their own, (d) adjusting to having the infant home, and (5) normalizing family life. This conceptual framework can inform future research and clinical interventions designed to foster father−infant bonding.
