    Who Says Pornography Can't Be Art?

    Full text link
    This opening chapter provides the contours of the debate about whether art and pornography are mutually exclusive and is meant as an introduction to the main themes of the book. It begins by looking at some of the classic ways of explaining the difference between art and pornography. Pornography, some have said, is sexually explicit and focuses exclusively on certain body parts, while art possesses emotional and psychological depth and is essentially suggestive. Others have stressed that pornography, unlike art, is inherently formulaic, or that pornography is exploitative in a way that art is not, or that pornography aims for a particular response, sexual arousal, that is incompatible with artistic contemplation or aesthetic experience. Such dichotomies, it is argued, are illuminating insofar as they help us to clarify how typical examples of art differ from typical examples of pornography, yet it would be wrong to see them as absolute distinctions. Whenever one attempts to draw a strict line between the two domains, whether it is on the basis of representational content, moral status, artistic quality, or prescribed response, one can always find examples of art or pornography that would fall on the ‘wrong side’ of the divide. Furthermore, it is argued that a value-neutral definition of pornography is to be preferred over any normative characterisation that stipulates that pornographic works, by definition, lack any significant artistic or aesthetic aspect. Finally, after providing a critical assessment of Christy Mag Uidhir’s incompatibilist account, which contrasts the ‘manner specificity’ of art with the ‘manner inspecificity’ of pornography, Maes highlights some of the practical implications of this philosophical discussion

    Rozpoznanie i ocena ekosystemów i ich świadczeń (MAES): wybrane zagadnienia i niepewności współdziałania nauki i polityki w zakresie bioróżnorodności i świadczeń ekosystemów

    This paper presents a review of the work that has been developed so far under Action 5. It firstly describes the MAES approach to ecosystem assessment. Next the implementation of the MAES process is evaluated at national and EU levels. Finally the paper briefs on how scientific uncertainty and gaps between science and policy related to mapping and assessment can be addressed.Działanie 5 sformułowane w Unijnej Strategii Bioróżnorodności do 2020 r. zobowiązuje kraje członkowskie do rozpoznania i oceny ekosystemów oraz dostarczanych przez nie świadczeń (MAES). Ostatnie analizy wskazują, że działanie to zostało zainicjowane przez prawie wszystkie kraje członkowskie Unii Europejskiej. Oceny na poziomie krajowym są wspierane wytycznymi przygotowanymi przez Grupę Roboczą MAES (raporty techniczne MAES). Podejście MAES jest oparte na modelu “wspólnota praktyk”, zgodnie z którym naukowcy i politycy wypracowują wspólnie wskazania dla państw członkowskich, oparte na ich wiedzy oraz ekspertyzach dotyczących ekosystemów i ich świadczeń. Ocena w skali europejskiej jest prowadzona w oparciu o czteroetapowe postępowanie: rozpoznanie ekosystemów, ocenę stanu ekosystemów, kwantyfikację świadczeń ekosystemów oraz integrację wyników uzyskanych na powyższych etapach w celu wsparcia procesu tworzenia i wdrażania polityk. W artykule zaproponowano trzy podejścia dla rozwiązania wątpliwości, które pojawiają się podczas rozpoznania i oceny ekosystemów oraz w trakcie wykorzystywania tej wiedzy na potrzeby polityki: lepsze rozpoznanie publikowanych dowodów naukowych, porównanie rezultatów procesu MAES w różnych skalach przestrzennych, a także jednoczesne współtworzenie wiedzy przez naukowców i politykó
