Do Political Convictions Infect Every Fibre of Our Being
Many countries’ constituencies are populated by polarised groups with sharply contrasting political loyalties and convictions, which appear to be becoming more and more extreme. We wish to explore such extreme political convictions with a focus on their place in a supporter’s mind, which underpins their engagement with a political movement. We look at how a political narrative can be internalised within the person as one of their narrative thread…
The Relationship Between Speaker’s Reference and Semantic Reference
The distinction between speaker’s and semantic reference arose in connection with Donnellan’s distinction between the referential use and the attributive use of definite descriptions. The central issue concerning the referential/attributive distinction is whether it is semantic or pragmatic. Kripke favours the pragmatic interpretation and developed the terminology of speaker’s and semantic reference in his explanation. The notion of speaker’s ref…

What is the relationship between sociocultural environment and psychiatric disorder? In particular, what is 'social disintegration', its characteristics, dangers and possible remediation? Alexander Hamilton Leighton and Jane Murphy's interdisciplinary contributions derive from those consuming concerns.

How Can a Symbol System Come into Being
One holistic thesis about symbols is that a symbol cannot exist singly, but only as apart of a symbol system. There is also the plausible view that symbol systems emerge gradually in an individual, in a group, and in a species. The problem is that symbol holism makes it hard to see how a symbol system can emerge gradually, at least if we are considering the emergence of a first symbol system. The only way it seems possible is if being a symbol ca…

Broken Lives? Reflections on the Anthropology of Exile and Repair
This article provides a rethinking of the concept of' exile and promotes its utility regarding both the externally and the internally displaced. It does so from the perspective of Medical Anthropology. A number of variables affecting and shaping the morality, performance, nature and outcomes of exile are identified. Edward Said's views are discussed; but, must exiles always and forever be viewed or be felt as 'broken lives'? The article argues ag…

Darwinian Psychological Anthropology
Psychological anthropology has contributed more to cross-cultural psychology and psychiatry than to its parent discipline. Needed is a biosocial psychological anthropology stressing the analysis of social relationships and focusing on the individual in his natural social context rather than on isolated personality mechanisms or grand culture-and-personality theoretical schemes. Human social relationships and structures may be viewed as having bee…

The Volta River Project
For at least the past 15 years, to the date of Ghana's achievement of Independence as a starting point, the whole issue as to how a newly independent country should allocate its resources so as to foster growth has been one which has lent itself too easily to the making of emotional appeals, and of costly mistakes, in the execution of assorted plans, as the various new nations have attempted to achieve a take off towards Rostow's promised land.
