John Locke: Zwei Abhandlungen über die Regierung
No full text„The ABC of Politics“ wurde Lockes politische Philosophie schon von seinen Zeitgenossen genannt. Locke legt nicht nur dar, weshalb man den Naturzustand verlassen soll – der Staat garantiert den Schutz von Leben, Freiheiten und Vermögen – sondern auch, was ein guter Staat konkret zu leisten hat: Der Staat soll die Individuen vor Angriffen ihrer Mitbürger und fremder Mächte schützen, aber auch vor sich selbst. Lockes anti-absolutistische Staatstheorie zeigt auf, wie die Macht politischer Institutionen begrenzt werden kann: durch Gewaltenteilung, feststehende Gesetze, unparteiische Richter und die Abhängigkeit vom Vertrauen der Gesellschaft, dessen Verletzung zum Widerstand berechtigt. Insbesondere die „Zweite Abhandlung über die Regierung“ ist damit nicht nur ein zentrales Dokument politischen Denkens des 17. Jahrhunderts, sie hat etwa die Entstehung der amerikanischen Verfassung geprägt und beeinflusst bis heute die Debatten um Republikanismus und Liberalismus. Dieser Band liefert einen kooperativen Kommentar zu allen wichtigen Themen der „Zwei Abhandlungen“. Die Beiträge folgen im Wesentlichen der Gliederung der wirkungsmächtigeren „Zweiten Abhandlung“ und bieten durch ihre kritischen Analysen wertvolle Anregungen für Studium und Diskussion der Theorie Lockes.

Moral Good, the Beatific Vision, and God’s Kingdom Writings by Germain Grisez and Peter Ryan, S.J.. Edited by Peter J. Weigel
No full textFor close to half a century, the work of Germain Grisez has been highly influential, and his writings continue to receive considerable attention from philosophers and theologians of diverse viewpoints. His co-author for this work is the professor and noted moral theologian Fr. Peter Ryan, S.J., currently the executive director of the Secretariat of Doctrine and Canonical Affairs of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB). These two eminent scholars explore fundamental questions about Christian eschatology, moral theory, the purpose of human life, and the promise of human fulfilment. The authors examine Christian teaching on the final destiny of persons, investigating the meaning of God's kingdom, the hope of the beatific vision, and the centrality of moral goodness and divine grace in one's final end. This work is an ideal source for students, scholars, ministers and lay persons interested in basic questions of Christian theology, the philosophy of religion, ethical theory, and Catholic doctrin

Macrofaunal communities on the continental shelf off Victoria Land (Ross Sea, Antarctica)
No full textIn austral summer 2004 benthic macrofauna was sampled along a latitudinal gradient along the northern Victoria Land coast (Ross Sea). An Agassiz trawl was used for semi-quantitative data collection of macrozoobenthos at depths from 84 to 537 m. Multivariate analysis of abundance of higher taxonomic units discriminated between the four sample sites along the latitudinal gradient. A SIMPROF analysis emphasized these geographical clusters, as the samples showed no significant differences within each cluster. A change in community structure with depth was not observed. The dominant taxonomic groups along the Victoria Land coast were Echinodermata (39%), Arthropoda (24%), Polychaeta (14%), and Mollusca (12%), not accounting for colonial organisms. Thus, the overall structure of the benthic community off the Victoria Land coast is comparable to other Antarctic regions and shows a closer relationship to the eastern Weddell Sea shelf, which may be attributable to the extensive impact of grounded ice affecting both areas

Composition and distribution of the peracarid crustacean fauna along a latitudinal transect off Victoria Land (Ross Sea, Antarctica) with special emphasis on the Cumacea
No full textThe following study was the first to describe composition and structure of the peracarid fauna systematically along a latitudinal transect off Victoria Land (Ross Sea, Antarctica). During the 19th Antarctic expedition of the Italian research vessel “Italica” in February 2004, macrobenthic samples were collected by means of a Rauschert dredge with a mesh size of 500 m at depths between 85 and 515 m. The composition of peracarid crustaceans, especially Cumacea was investigated. Peracarida contributed 63% to the total abundance of the fauna. The peracarid samples were dominated by amphipods (66%), whereas cumaceans were represented with 7%. Previously, only 13 cumacean species were known, now the number of species recorded from the Ross Sea increased to 34. Thus, the cumacean fauna of the Ross Sea, which was regarded as the poorest in terms of species richness, has to be considered as equivalent to that of other high Antarctic areas. Most important cumacean families concerning abundance and species richness were Leuconidae, Nannastacidae, and Diastylidae. Cumacean diversity was lowest at the northernmost area (Cape Adare). At the area off Coulman Island, which is characterized by muddy sediment, diversity was highest. Diversity and species number were higher at the deeper stations and abundance increased with latitude. A review of the bathymetric distribution of the Cumacea from the Ross Sea reveals that most species distribute across the Antarctic continental shelf and slope. So far, only few deep-sea records justify the assumption of a shallow-water–deep-sea relationship in some species of Ross Sea Cumacea, which is discussed from an evolutionary point of view
