The rules of the epistemological game are laid down in such a way that it is a priori that the skeptic will lose. [...] contemporary epistemology defines a clear-cut criterion of its success, namely the capacity to address the question whether a given epistemological setting is able to refute skepticism or, at the very least, to obviate its supposedly destructive effects.

From cosmological mythology to fascism, unitary reason, this essay suggests, occupies a position of power; subjugates all other reasoning processes; assumes the rung of a highest generality; subsumes all other forms of reason; formalizes hierarchical differences; perpetuates its position in time; absorbs redefinitions of and within the hierarchy; ritualizes relations within the hierarchy; opposes competing hierarchies; and imposes sanctions for violations of relations within its order. 40 A modest critique of reason is introduced by Charles Taylor who advocates sensitivity to cultural specificity without giving up on such major Enlightenment principles as the dignity of the rational, disengaged individual; pursuit of happiness through labor, sexuality, marriage, family, and ordinary li...

We focus on likely challenges that will be encountered by field researchers investigating managerial decision-making using theoretical frameworks based on the dual systems of reasoning. This decision-making theoretical framework is currently the subject of theory building research in the management literature (e.g. Dane & Pratt, 2007). Future field studies investigating how dual systems of reasoning affect consequential decisions made by entrepreneurs and managers in actual business settings are necessary for further development of this theory. Major issues that challenge the field researcher include choosing the decision or decisions to investigate, deciding on how to operationalize the criterion variable, consideration of alternate normative outcomes resulting from multiple legiti...

'3 Furthermore, despite the absence of set-theory notation and other known Badiouian flourishes, there are obvious points of similarity between teacher and student: the major role for mathematics, including the anointment of Georg Cantor as a pivotal figure for philosophy; the fondness for step-by-step logical argumentation; the absence of any especial interest in Heidegger or the phenomenological tradition.

This paper uses a longitudinal database to examine how family businesses compare with their non-family counterparts in one form of entrepreneurial activity, internationalization. It then evaluates some qualitative data to explore what elements of Lumpkin and Dess' (1996) entrepreneurial orientation - autonomy, innovativeness, risk taking, proactiveness, and competitive aggressiveness - may have been evident when family businesses internationalized. Results indicate that family firms are less likely to be internationally active compared with non-family firms. While the importance of innovativeness for international expansion is highlighted, findings suggest that unless family business managers have the freedom to act autonomously, the ability to benefit internationally from such innovati...

This article explores the idea of value pluralism, the problems it poses for public administration, and how an examination of legal reasoning, as a form of practical reasoning, might help public administrators deal with these problems. It is argued that legal reasoning can be helpful because it is rooted in a process of adversary argument and analogical reasoning that promotes the consideration of conflicting values or conceptions of the good.
