Human ecology
Notes for PhD proposals
Notes and proposals for PhD study.
- Translations between biology and
sociology Re-evaluation of the questions I want to ask. (12/6/99)
- Sociological approaches to ecological
uncertainty (version 2). This PhD proposal attempts to establish
grounds for communication between the sciences and the humanities on
ecological matters. There are also arguments between sciences and
humanities, but in ecological situations, the range of arguments
within science and the the range of arguments within the humanities
are sufficiently large to find a number of parallel approaches. To
ignore the possibility of new insights based on these parallels,
purely from a position that devalues either science or the
humanities in terms of some idealised methodology, seems to be short
sighted. (3/5/99)
- What are the meanings of calcium in
physiology? Experimental hypertext description of the roles of
calcium in physiology - with interrelated ideas of Barthes,
Foucault, Ulrich Beck, and Umberto Eco. (22/5/99)
