The results of this study are Pusung Village included Middle Disaster Resilient Village with the interaction SO is fulfillment sister village program requirements, the results of WO are disaster simulations be activated and need a balanced allocation, the result of ST is readiness in various aspects that can minimize disaster risk and the result of WT is balancing prevention services.</em></p>

Configurarea Paradigmei Terţului Inclus – Blaga, Bachelard, Lupaşcu1

This paper aims to present the connection and continuity between the implicit principles that configure the transgressive visions of Lucian Blaga, Gaston Bachelard and Ștefan Lupașcu, which inaugurate a paradigmatic change in consensus with the revolutionary ideas circulating in science, philosophy, poetry and art across the 20th century. The subtle paradigmatic axis which crosses implicitly or explicitly the work of Lucian Blaga proves to be the transgressive attempt of integration and overcoming of the antinomies under the sign of the included middle which underlies the transfiguring core of the dogmatic paradox. Thus, the nucleus of Blaga’s epistemological vision, the dogmatic paradox – a synthesis of the antinomies solved not in concrete level, but in transcendent one, creating a paradoxical logics – proves to be close to Gaston Bachelard’s transgressive theoretical constructions – the surrationalism and the philosophy of no –, as well as to Ştefan Lupaşcu’s integrative perspective of the dynamic logics of the contradictory. The subtly related nexus of theoretical ideas developed by Blaga, Bachelard and Lupașcu appear to be essential milestones in the avant-garde of the paradigmatic chain of the included middle, opening it towards the present European episteme.

Assessing operational risk while using the logic of the included middle

From the Solvency II perspective, the capital requirement for operational risk is based on the application of a standard formula. The limitation imposed by this approach as well as the definition of operational risk by establishing certain types of activities (i.e. internal processes, people, systems, etc.) as generating causes does not allow, at least for the time being, the establishment of an effective way of managing the operational risk regardless of the type of strategy chosen. Any human operator involved in the risk identification and evaluation processes, within most of the organizations, would use the logic of the included middle based on Boolean binary values (i.e. true/false, 1/0, etc.). This article attempts to logically analyze the methodological impact that would result from using a logic of the included middle which accepts that an identified operational risk and an unidentified operational risk may coexist at the same time, in a risk profile, provided that the identified one is actual and the unidentified one is potential, reciprocal and alternative but never up to the 100% limit. The included middle in this approach is the transition state, which is perfectly possible in terms of defining the topological properties of the time in which the identified operational risks analyzed are assessed. The novelty of this approach is based on the fact that the logic of the included middle, which we include in research as a concept and as a tool, was one of the nudging factors that underpinned the development of the wave mechanics (e.g. Schrodinger’s Cat Paradox) and some of the quantum physics theories later, and its use has never been tested in risk management.

A New Look at Instersubjectivity and Theology: A Retrieval of Filipino Loob-Kapwa Relationality In Dialogue with Gabriel Marcel and Ludwig Binswanger

Although Marcel and Binswanger are contemporaries both in terms of historical period and intellectual pursuit, it is curious that they are never discussed together. Hence, this essay will attempt to explore some areas of convergences and divergences between these two intersubjective thinkers who are considered to be indispensable interlocutors in the I-thou discourse. In this article, as another attempt to take the discourse on intersubjectivity a little bit further, Marcel and Binswanger are placed in dialogue with the Filipino concept of loob-kapwa, which the author believes provides a hospitable home, when seen against the background of Nicolescu’s “Included Middle”, for the intersubjective relation that they are proposing. The author asserts that loob-kapwa tandem, without turning a blind eye towards its negative tendencies, is a viable answer to the “problem of crossing-over” that remained to be a philosophical baggage for both Marcel and Binswanger courtesy of their Modern upbringing, because the chasm, at least conceptually, is absent in the Filipino estimation of the loob-kapwa intersubjective bond.

Bridging Bateson, Deleuze and Guattari Through Metamodelisation: What Brian Massumi Can Teach Us About Animal Politics

This chapter turns to the seminal work of the English anthropologist/ cyberneticist, Gregory Bateson (1904-80) as a crucial ecological and ludic foundation not only for the work of Deleuze and Guattari – the pair coined the term ‘plateau’ as a continuous, self-vibrating region of intensities from Bateson’s study of Balinese culture – but also Brian Massumi’s more recent exploration of the supernormal tendency in animal play as a metacommunicative model for a new form of political metamodelisation based on Guattari’s advocacy of an ethico-aesthetic paradigm. Drawing heavily on Bateson’s 1955 essay, ‘A Theory of Play and Fantasy’, Massumi stresses how, for example, a play fight between wolf cubs entails the staging of a paradox, whereby a cub bites and at the same time says ‘This is not a bite, this is not a fight, this is a game,’ whereby the ludic stands in for the suspended analogue: real combat. Massumi calls this level of abstraction game’s ‘-esqueness,’ its metacommunicative level which self-reflexively mobilizes a vitality affect that generates a trans-situational process that moves across and between intersecting existential territories. The latter entails the construction of a third dimension, the ‘included middle’ of play and combat’s mutual influence, which Massumi calls ‘sympathy’.

Monstrous hermeneutics: Learning from diagrams

This paper addresses a theory/practice nexus represented by a semiotic system of Tarot pictures as iconic signs. Tarot will be analyzed from the perspective of Charles S. Peirce’s and Gilles Deleuze’s philosophies. Tarot functions as a diagram or the included third between “self” and “other,” which are traditionally taken as binary opposites. It thus partakes of the “monster” as a grotesque and ambiguous category that betrays a strict boundary between habitual dualisms, such as mind and world, consciousness and the unconscious, human and divine. While Tarot is usually perceived as irrational and illogical if not altogether “monstrous,” it is the logic of the included middle that enables its functioning. Genuine signs have a triadic structure that includes interpretants crossing over human and non-human natures. The process of reading and interpreting Tarot signs represents specific hermeneutics and constitutes exopedagogy as an alternative form of education partaking of a posthuman dimension. As indices, Tarot pictures refer to the whole gamut of human experiences, and the hermeneutics of Tarot allows us to evaluate experience and to learn from it.

Scientists and Theologians in Front of the Mystery

SCIENCE AND THEOLOGY have their own distinct languages and modes of representing reality. These must be clearly distinguished in order to avoid na¨ıve concordism. However, it is interesting to explore how the methods and logic used in one field can be applicable to the other, taking into account the specific constraints of each. The aim of this paper is to show how the incompleteness of both the scientist and the theologian in their own field is a new way to consider the dialog between science and theology today. We will see that Christian dogmas- Trinity and Incarnation, as well as the biblical notion of Covenant-can, be fruitfully explored through the logic of the “included middle” as applied to quantum physics. This application of methods from one field to another emphasizes that deep, common human attitudes enable both physicists and believers to explore the nature of reality without any confusion between the fields of science and theology. Common attitudes derive from the study of the logic of the included middle and its role in science and theology. Such a field of pursuit is called “moral philosophy” because it is related to critical analysis of the ethical principles involved in comparative epistemologies in science and theology. Taking into account the different domains of science, metaphysics, and theology, we will show how moral philosophy can be a new foundation for the dialog between scientists and people of faith. Such a dialog can perhaps be helpful in promoting quality in education and in supporting peace in the modern world

Discussion on Calculation to Equal Step Distance Different Cycle Time Flow Project Period with Intermission in Multiple Construction Storey

When there are storey-to-storey relationships or construction storey by storey, to discuss the flow construction cycle time with technology intermission or organizing intermission time. When the category of the construction sections can meet the requirements of formula, i.e. , has included middle storey intermission in construction period calculation formula, there is not single item; When the category of the construction sections can not meet the requirements of formula, i.e. or , there should make single item in middle storey intermission in construction period calculation, at that time, the working team can not be continuous and the working surface can make maximum connection.
