“…this is especially clear with principles that require varied implementation in different cases (such as "teachers should set work which is adjusted to each student's level of ability"). 15 as we will see, particularists nonetheless argue that, even allowing the need for judgment, relying on principles in deliberation is often a hindrance to acting well.…”

Most of us are brought up to think that stealing is wrong, that you should keep your promises, that morality requires us not to hurt others, and so on. We recognize that moral principles like these may need to be made a bit sharper to deal with exceptions, such as its being morally permissible to hurt someone to defend yourself from them. But it is commonplace to think that there are correct moral principles at least in their vicinity. Moral particularism, as it figures in the past few decades of moral philosophy, is a family of views united by an opposition to giving moral principles a fundamental or important role in morality. 1 particularism challenges the project of ambitious moral theory in the traditional style of Kant, Mill, and most other major figures in the history of moral philosophy. Moral generalism is, likewise, not a single sharply defined position but a family of views united by the thought that moral principles do play some such fundamental or important role.this chapter first distinguishes two central roles that moral principles have traditionally been asked to play in moral theory and three different forms which opposition to principles playing either of those roles has taken. It then surveys some of the leading arguments for and against thinking that principles play these central roles and notes various questions that remain live.

“…Also, with recent advances in communication and information technology, enterprises have the opportunity to reduce operating costs by coordinating planning and scheduling across stages in the supply chain. Concepts like Quick Response, Accurate Response, Integrated Supply Chain Management, Agile Scheduling, Virtual or Extended Enterprise (see, for instance, [Ross 1996], [Fisher 1994], [Fox 1993], [Rabelo 1996] and[O'Neill 1996], respectively), are being used to describe management models for cooperative supply chain networks. For instance, in the Extended Enterprise (EE) paradigm [O'Neill 1996], [Sackett 1994], a group of interdependent highly specialized enterprises agree in cooperating to make available, at the right times, the demanded quantities of fmal products.…”

In this scenario, the entire business process (including production, storage, transportation) of a product is performed by a network of geographically distributed business units, owned and managed by enterprises.…”

Form and Context: An Essay in the History of Narratology

This essay compares two distinct traditions of narrative theory: on the one hand, that of structuralist narratology as it emerged in the 1960s and in its various subsequent manifestations; on the other, that of German-languageErzähltheorie as codified in the 1950s, with a prehistory dating back to German classicism. Having mapped the connections between these traditions, this essay then concentrates on exploring how narratology, unlike German narrative theory, has come to broaden its project exponentially since its first critical incarnation as a strictly formalist poetics. While the German tradition has concentrated on rhetoric and voice (with reception theory constituting a largely separate area of inquiry), narratology, which frames the text within a symmetry of real, implied, and fictional intelligences, has always had the potential to pose questions about how narrative functions in relation to a surrounding world of ideas. Of the two only narratology can therefore theorize both authorship and reading. In specific terms, this essay argues that the controversial narratological abstraction of implied authorship represents the only point at which a negotiation between textual and contextual worlds can logically take place. Evidence of how crucial such theorization has been in the development of contextualist narratology is sought in the examination of a test case, namely the much-disputed project of feminist narratology.
