13. True Development and the Human Person: Transcending Contradiction in Discerning a Sustainable Capitalism

Author

Strickland, Geoffrey and Strickland, Geoffrey

Abstract

This article seeks to discern the foundation of a sustainable capitalism and development through the lenses of language, law, and Catholic social teaching. In identifying confusion in modern understandings of capitalism and sustainability, it argues for the necessity of a transcendent understanding of the human person to achieve a sustainable capitalism and true development. In essence, a capitalism in which the human person is viewed as a nontranscendent regulated commodity is inherently unsustainable and contradictory. In order to transcend contradiction in seeking a sustainable capitalism, mans principal resource, which is man himself, must be cultivated and respected above all others.Geoffrey Strickland, "True Development and the Human Person: Transcending Contradiction in Discerning a Sustainable Capitalism", Journal of Markets and Morality 16, no. 1 (Spring 2013): 157-174

Abstract

UK universities are becoming more and more reliant on the Committee of Vice-Chancellors and Principals and the funding councils. Graduates who want to continue their education and become a member of the academic profession need more funds and luck than those in the same position in the 1950s. There is an obvious social divide within the academic profession. The UK appears to be imitating the worst aspects of US higher education system.

24. CHAPTER 51: GREAT TRADITIONS: THE LOGIC OF THE CANON.

Author

Strickland, Geoffrey

Subjects
CANON (Literature), CRITICISM, LITERARY movements, CLASSICISM, CLASSICAL literature
Abstract

The article presents information about the book "The Great Tradition," by F.R. Leavis. The word canonical mentioned in the book is appropriate to an extent, though there are many kinds of canon and the history of this and other related terms can help to understand them. As used today, it often has a caricatural force deriving from its original scriptural associations. According to writer G.W. Anderson, writing in the Cambridge History of the Bible, it was first used in its modern sense in patristic writings of the fourth century to refer to those texts which orthodoxy had come to regard as the Old and New Testaments. The new term, needless to say, does not altogether correspond to a new concept. It is unlikely today that anyone wishing to recommend the study of literature would use arguments such as these or at least as confidently and unequivocally; or that they would or could have been used at any time in France. The modern term which conveys most simply the general notion of the canonical is the word literature itself, which refers to a canon of works of outstanding value and possibly even interest as well.
