Friedrich Nietzsche. Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche (/ˈniːtʃə/[1] or /ˈniːtʃi/;[2] German: [ˈfʁiːdʁɪç ˈvɪlhɛlm ˈniːt͡sʃə]; 15 October 1844 – 25 August 1900) was a German philosopher, cultural critic, poet, composer and Latin and Greek scholar. He wrote several critical texts on religion, morality, contemporary culture, philosophy and science, displaying a fondness for metaphor[3] and irony.
Nietzsche's key ideas include perspectivism, the will to power, the death of God, the Übermensch and eternal recurrence. One of the key tenets of his philosophy is "life-affirmation", which embraces the realities of the world in which we live over the idea of a world beyond. Nietzsche began his career as a classical philologist—a scholar of Greek and Roman textual criticism—before turning to philosophy. In 1869, at age 24, he became the youngest-ever occupant of the Chair of Classical Philology at the University of Basel. As his caretaker, his sister assumed the roles of curator and editor of Nietzsche's manuscripts. Werner Heisenberg. Philosophy of Mind. Political Philosophy. John Locke. Thomas Hobbes.

Elected posts won Officially registered Active, unregistered pirate party No pirate party Member of Pirate Parties International Active Pirate Party, but not PPI member Pirate Parties International (PPI) is a not for profit international non governmental organisation with its headquarters in Brussels, Belgium.[1] Formed in 2010 it serves as a worldwide organisation for Pirate Parties, currently representing members from 42 countries.
The Pirate Parties are political incarnations of the freedom of expression movement, trying to achieve their goals by the means of the established political system rather than through activism. Aims[edit] The PPI statutes[2] give its purposes as: to help establish, to support and promote, and to maintain communication and co-operation between pirate parties around the world. The name "Pirates" itself is a reappropriation of the title that was given to internet users by the representatives of the music and film industry, and do not refer to any illegal activity.
Pirate Party. OpenContent. Can Social Software Change the World? Loomio Just Might. Let's face it. After nearly fifty years of development and roughly twenty years of mass adoption, the Internet hasn't created many truly useful tools for groups. We may live in the age of "ridiculously easy group formation," but if you've spent any time as part of a group, you know that all the most popular internet tools --email, list-servs, blogs, chats, and wikis --basically suck at group coordination.
None of these tools are built to make it easy for large groups to make decisions together. It's not a coincidence, I think, that most of us rarely, or never, experience working in a group where everyone actually gets a meaningful chance to participate in the decisions that group makes. Or, to look at it from the converse, most of us belong to groups where we actually don't have that much of a say in what the group does. Our most popular technological tools (see sidebar, below) generally have the effect of making this situation worse. Why Can't We All Get Along?
Liquid Democracy. PirateTimes. {t} Themes. {t} Analytics. Systems analysis. Systems analysis is the study of sets of interacting entities, including computer systems analysis. This field is closely related to requirements analysis or operations research. It is also "an explicit formal inquiry carried out to help someone (referred to as the decision maker) identify a better course of action and make a better decision than he might otherwise have made.
"[1] Overview[edit] The terms analysis and synthesis come from Greek where they mean respectively "to take apart" and "to put together". Information technology[edit] The development of a computer-based information system includes a systems analysis phase which produces or enhances the data model which itself is a precursor to creating or enhancing a database (see Christopher J.

Anarchism. Anthony Stafford Beer. Stafford Beer (25 September 1926 – 23 August 2002) was a British theorist, consultant and professor at the Manchester Business School. He is best known for his work in the fields of operational research and management cybernetics. Biography[edit] Beer was born in London in 1926. He started a degree in philosophy at University College London, but left in 1944 to join the army. He joined United Steel and persuaded the management to found an operational research group, the Department of Operations Research and Cybernetics, which he headed. In mid-1971, Beer was approached by Fernando Flores, then a high-ranking member of the Chilean Production Development Corporation (CORFO) in the newly elected socialist government of Salvador Allende, for advice on applying his cybernetic theories to the management of the state-run sector of the Chilean economy.
Beer was a visiting professor at almost 30 universities and received honorary doctorates from the University of Leeds, the University of St. Sociology Central. Tragedy of the commons. The tragedy of the commons concept is often cited in connection with sustainable development, meshing economic growth and environmental protection, as well as in the debate over global warming. It has also been used in analyzing behavior in the fields of economics, evolutionary psychology, anthropology, game theory, politics, taxation, and sociology. However the concept, as originally developed, has also received criticism for not taking into account the many other factors operating to enforce or agree on regulation in this scenario.
Lloyd's pamphlet[edit] In 1833, the English economist William Forster Lloyd published a pamphlet which included an example of herders sharing a common parcel of land on which they are each entitled to let their cows graze. In English villages, shepherds had sometimes grazed their sheep in common areas, and sheep ate grass more severely than cows.
Garrett Hardin's article[edit] [edit] As a metaphor, the tragedy of the commons should not be taken too literally.
