Not surprisingly, negation also plays a central role in scientific reasoning in the form of counterfactuals. [...] even if we reject the notion that an absence signaled by a negation could be a cause, we have to contend with the fact that standard analyses of causation are forced to have recourse to negation inasmuch as they suppose that a process or fact can only be a cause if it is not the same as its effect.6 So construed, causation requires a real distinction that is the counterpart of a negation.

The two main versions of the objective theory of justification produce contradictions when applied to a hypothetical case of mutual reasonably mistaken acts of self-defense. If two people each erroneously believe the other is about to attack them, and preemptively attack the supposed attacker, under the objective theory each is simultaneously justified and not justified. The subjective theory of justification avoids this paradox.

Account-making refers to "people's story-like construction of events that include explanations, descriptions, predictions about relevant future [and past] events and affective reaction" (Harvey, Orbuch, Chwalisz, & Garwood, 1991, p. 516). In autoethnographic account-making, personal experiences are delineated, explicated, and communicated to the greater audience of researchers and lay people in order to help them better understand people's actions, reactions, motives, and psychoemotional states of being. In this way, accounts not only serve as sources of social scientific knowledge but also as aids to understanding how others make sense of their own lives. In general, accounts can be developed for different time periods throughout a person's lifetime regarding a number of events, in...

This monograph is a case study of newspaper competition in New Hampshire between the province's official newspaper and an upstart Whig challenger in the period marked by contention over the Stamp Act (1765-1766) and over the tight oligarchical reign of the Wentworth family. The case study is grounded in the civic republican tradition articulated by Bernard Bailyn and Gordon Wood as well as the revisionist scholarship since the 1960s that takes the role of the "little people" seriously. It maintains that the competition between the two newspapers contributed to, and opened up, the public spaces in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, to a wider compass than might have been predicted if one follows the standard Habermasian argument for the develop of a bourgeois public sphere. In part, these more d...
