Book Synopsis The Psychology of Belief by : Nancy S. Kim
Download or read book The Psychology of Belief written by Nancy S. Kim and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2022-11-17 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why do we believe in the views of a political party or leader? How can we better understand vaccine hesitancy or denial of climate change science? What drives extremist or conspiracist beliefs? This vital and timely new text provides a compelling survey of the science behind how people form beliefs and evaluate those of others, and why it is that beliefs are often so resistant to change in the face of conflicting evidence. Bringing together theories and empirical evidence from cognitive, developmental, and social psychology, Nancy S. Kim presents an engaging overview of the field and its implications for a wide range of beliefs – from moral, political, religious, and superstitious beliefs to beliefs about ourselves and our own potential. The intriguing studies discussed demonstrate how many psychological factors contribute to belief, including memory, reasoning, judgment, emotion, personality, social cognition, and cognitive development. With thoughtful questions and a range of cross-cultural case studies, this is an ideal overview for students of psychology and all readers interested in the psychology of belief.

Book Synopsis The Epistemology of Group Disagreement by : Fernando Broncano-Berrocal
Download or read book The Epistemology of Group Disagreement written by Fernando Broncano-Berrocal and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-12-11 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings together philosophers to investigate the nature and normativity of group disagreement. Debates in the epistemology of disagreement mainly have been concerned with idealized cases of peer disagreement between individuals. However, most real-life disagreements are complex and often take place within and between groups. Ascribing views, beliefs, and judgments to groups is a common phenomenon that is well researched in the literature on the ontology and epistemology of groups. The essays in this volume seek to connect these literatures and to explore both intra- and inter- group disagreements. They apply their discussions to a range of political, religious, social, and scientific issues. The Epistemology of Group Disagreement is an important resource for students and scholars working on social and applied epistemology, disagreement, and topics at the intersection of epistemology, ethics, and politics.
Book Synopsis Problems in Epistemology and Metaphysics by : Steven B. Cowan
Download or read book Problems in Epistemology and Metaphysics written by Steven B. Cowan and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2020-02-06 with total page 411 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Problems in Epistemology and Metaphysics takes a pro and con approach to two central philosophical topics. Each chapter begins with a question: Can We Have Knowledge? How are Beliefs Justified? What is the mind? Contemporary philosophers with opposing viewpoints are then paired together to argue their position and raise problems with conflicting standpoints. Alongside an up-to-date introduction to a core philosophical stance, each contributor provides a critical response to their opponent and clear explanation of their view. Discussion questions are included at the end of each chapter to guide further discussion. With chapters covering core questions surrounding religious beliefs, scientific knowledge, truth, being and reality, this is a comprehensive introduction to debates lying at the heart of what we know, how we know it and the nature of the world we live in.
Book Synopsis A Logical Analysis Of Wahhabi Beliefs (3) by : Najm Al-Din Tabassi
Download or read book A Logical Analysis Of Wahhabi Beliefs (3) written by Najm Al-Din Tabassi and published by Rafed Books. This book was released on with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Wahhābī view The Wahhabi sect maintains that repairing graves, constructing buildings and domes on them, and plastering them is prohibited. They also label such acts, polytheism and blasphemy. Moreover they hold that, destroying the graves, the domes on top of graves and buildings situated around them, is obligatory. The following are examples of their rulings: 1. San’ānī states: “The hall of audience (haram) is the same as an idol. This is because the quburīyun[1] carry out the same acts that the people during the Age of Ignorance (Jahilliyah period) carried out for their idols. They (quburīyun) carry out these acts for places they have named grave or the mashhad[2] of a walī[3]. In any case they are the same acts that the people of the Age of Ignorance used to carry out but with a different name. However, it does not stop becoming an idol if the term changes!”[4] 2. Ibn Qayyim (Ibn Taymiyyah’s student) asserts: “Buildings on graves are taken to be idols and are worshipped. Destroying them is obligatory. In addition, if one has the power to destroy them, then allowing them to stay in the same form - for even one day - is not permissible. ...
Book Synopsis Religion in International Relations Theory by : Nukhet Sandal
Download or read book Religion in International Relations Theory written by Nukhet Sandal and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-06-19 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a growing realization among international relations scholars and practitioners that religion is a critical factor in global politics. The Iranian Revolution, the September 11 attacks, the ethno-religious conflicts such as the ones in the former Yugoslavia and Sri Lanka are among the many reasons for this increased focus on religion in international affairs. The rise of religious political parties across the world ranging from the Christian Democrats in Europe to Bharatiya Janata Party in India similarly illustrated religion's heightened international profile. Despite all this attention, it is challenging to situate religion within a discipline which has been dominantly secular from its inception. Only a few existent works have ventured to integrate religion into core international relations theories such as Classical Realism, Neorealism, Neoliberalism, Constructivism and the English school. This work is the first systematic attempt to comparatively assess the place of religion in the aforementioned theoretical strands of international relations with contemporary examples from around the world. Written in an accessible and systematic fashion, this book will be an important addition to the fields of both religion and international relations. Nukhet A. Sandal is Assistant Professor in the Political Science Department at Ohio University. Jonathan Fox is Professor in the Department of Political Studies at Bar Ilan University, Israel.

Book Synopsis Thinking Out Loud by : Christopher Gauker
Download or read book Thinking Out Loud written by Christopher Gauker and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2014-07-14 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most contemporary philosophers, psychologists, and linguists think of language as basically a means by which speakers reveal their thoughts to others. Christopher Gauker calls this "the Lockean theory of language," since Locke was one of its early exponents, and he contends that it is fundamentally mistaken. The Lockean theory, he argues, cannot adequately explain the nature of the general concepts that words are supposed to express. In developing this theme, Gauker investigates a wide range of topics, including Locke's own views, contemporary theories of conceptual development, the nature of reference and logical validity, the nature of psychological explanation, and the division of epistemic labor in society. The Lockean theory contrasts with the conception of language as the medium of a distinctive kind of thinking. Gauker explains how language, so conceived, is possible as a means of cooperative interaction. He articulates the possibility and objectivity of a kind of non-conceptual thinking about similarities and causal relations, which allows him to explain how a simple language might be learned. He then takes on the problem of logical structure and gives a formally precise account of logical validity formulated in terms of "assertibility in a context" rather than in terms of truth. Finally, he describes the role that attributions of belief and meaning play in facilitating cooperative interaction. With lucid and persuasive arguments, his book challenges philosophers, psychologists, linguists, and logicians to rethink their fundamental assumptions about the nature of language.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Professor Bandman presents a philosophical argument in answer to the question, How do we justifiably bring up our children? Bandman suggests that the status of children's rights in collusion with the method by which children are raised result in the strength and breadth of our rights as adults. This is an eminently worthwhile study, involving the interests of younger and older people alike, engaging us all in reflective examination of issues right at our doorsteps.
Book Synopsis Shared Beliefs in a Society by : Daniel Bar-Tal
Download or read book Shared Beliefs in a Society written by Daniel Bar-Tal and published by SAGE Publications. This book was released on 2000-07-06 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ...carefully argued, this book will have special appeal to graduate students, faculty, social psychologists (notably those yearning for Lewinian Approaches), and group-oriented sociologists. —Choice What kind of shared beliefs in a society are of importance to social systems? What functions do they fulfill? How are they informed and disseminated? What are the societal consequences of shared beliefs? All of these questions are addressed in this book in which Daniel Bar-Tal develops the notion of societal psychology, which he states can contribute a social-psychological perspective to the study of a wide range of social problems in a society. He shows how societal psychology can fulfill the promise of early social psychologists by directing attention to the societal and cultural contexts in which individuals live and by examining the reciprocal influence between these contexts and individuals. In this comprehensive volume, four themes of societal belief: patriotism, security, siege mentality, and deligitimization, are examined through well-defined examples and systematic analysis. Researchers, students and practitioners in social psychology, sociology, political science and anthropology will be stimulated and engaged by this important contribution to the field.
