This paper seeks to examine the significance of Derrida's work for an understanding of the basic tenets of phenomenology. Specifically, via an analysis of his understanding of the subject's relation to the future, we will see that Derrida enhances the phenomenological understanding of temporality and intentionality, thereby moving the project of phenomenology forward in a unique way. This, in turn, suggests that future phenomenological research will have to account for an essential (rather than merely a secondary) role for both linguistic mediation and cultural and political factors within the phenomenological subject itself.

This paper examines under which conditions melancholic experiences of time (“Time has stopped, nothing happens”, “I cannot see the future”) are possible. In recent phenomenological research on melancholia, melancholic time experiences are analyzed as disturbances in affectivity. However, it is not always clear how the disturbance of time experience might be structurally interrelated with the disturbance in affectivity. This paper focuses on the interrelatedness of temporal synthesis and affectivity in Husserl’s phenomenology. Husserl’s analyses will be used to explain what role affectivity plays in the constitution of the normal daily world experience, and in particular the time experience. Further, it will be shown how a possibility of the disturbance in time experience is already rooted in the most basic layer of constitution.

For centuries China has been seen as a backward country. It was dominated by the European powers and, since the middle of the last century, by a very doctrinaire communist government. However, in the last 10 15 years China has emerged as an economic giant with an economy growing at 10% + per annum operating in a decidedly capitalistic fashion. Thus, we have the paradox of an anti communistic economic system operating under an anti capitalistic political system. The question for the future is whether this economic miracle will continue into the 21stcentury or is it but a temporary mirage and China will revert back to its previous secondary role on the worlds stage?

Human Chagas disease originated in Latin America, being spread around the world in relation with multiple bioecological, sociocultural, and political factors. The process of the disease production and dispersion is discussed, emphasizing the human migration and correlated aspects, in the context of globalization. Positive and negative consequences concern the future of this trypanosomiasis, mainly in terms of the ecologic and sociopolitical characteristics of the endemic and nonendemic countries.

The Creation

This article explores the creation of the image of a Soviet woman within the Soviet cinematography. The subject of this research is the female image formed by the Russian cinematography at certain stages and its dynamics. The author suggest understanding of the image of woman as a combination of sensible images, which include representations on the place, role, functions, traits that are potentially common to her, but are yet to be formed and realized. Detailed analysis of the films of the early XX century allows examining creation of the female image, the expectations, moods, perceptions of the future presented in the films, as well as tracing the correlation between semantic content and its visualization. Due to the fact that the image was designed gradually, the author considered the key social and political factors that affected its creation and found reflection within it. Special contribution of the author into the research of this topic consists in demonstration of a relatively holistic image of a Soviet woman in cinematography, which was comprise bit by bit and transformed, meeting the challenges, demands and needs of society and the state.

I will inquire into the future of prostitution legislation in Canada, given the recent Supreme Court decision to strike down the Criminal Code provisions restricting practices around the sale and purchase of sex. I will consider three models for Canada’s new laws: criminalization, legalization/regulation and the “Nordic model”. I will outline the features of each system, with a particular focus on the Nordic model which many have proposed as the best avenue for Canadian legislators to take. In both Canada and places where a Nordic Model has been implemented, I will account for the legal provisions regarding prostitution, associated laws related to labour, public health, zoning and public nuisance, political factors including the presence and strength of a social safety net and the sort of government that oversees the administration of said social safety net, and the sorts of people who practice prostitution. I will compare the social factors and demographic information from the Nordic states with the Canadian context, establishing similarities and differences between the situations. Ultimately, I will discuss the implications each system in the Canadian context, addressing the likelihood of each model’s implementation, its efficacy at achieving its stated aims and what sorts of conditions it creates for people engaged in prostitution.

This paper discusses the evolution of fixed and mobile stations during the past two decades and extrapolates trends into the future. It is shown that for the various communications satellite systems discussed, i.e. international, domestic, maritime and direct broadcast, the terminal designs are controlled not only by technical factors but also by economic, organizational and political factors. . The net effect of these combined forces, while yielding less than optimum designs from a technical or economic viewpoint, has made for a remarkable growth in twenty years. From an experimental—operational system of four stations in 1965, which used a satellite with 10 W of effective radiated power, to, by 1990, millions of home television stations using a satellite of 200 kW effective radiated power per channel.

The Way

Religion has in the past, it may be truefully admitted, done more than its share of fostering the spirit of ‘we’ over against ‘they’. Economic and political factors have unfortunately, throughout history, clogged the channels of communication between men of one faith and those of another. The most unhappy aspect of the relation between religion and society has been the way in which the former has fostered the distinction between the insider and the outsider. Typical of this is the fact that most religious communities have a word which describes the religious outsider and the word is never a flattering one. That there should be religious diversity in the first place should occasion no surprise. Diversification is the order of things in the biological realm and we would not expect to find a sudden departure from this, that is, a move towards convergence, in the sphere of religion. But unless diversification is matched with understanding and with communication we face the future at our peril. It is for this reason that the question of inter-religious communication, the ground of its possibility, can be regarded not only as the most pressing of problems for the student of comparative religion (for unless there is prior understanding and communication where indeed are the data to be compared?) but as a matter of pressing urgency for all.
