Goldberg, Robert A. | Hooded empire: the Ku Klux Klan in Colorado | The decade of the 1920s conjures up a unique cluster of images. A few broad, organizing conceptions dominate as people and events are filtered through a screen of memories, books, and films. This was the era of "normalcy," prohibition, "flaming youth," and the "golden glow." George Babbitt, Al Capon... | 1981 | |

Francis, Leslie | Eminent domain compensation in the Western states: a critique of the fair market value model | Both the United States Constitution and the constitutions of the states of the intermountain west and the Pacific Coast prohibit the state from taking property without paying just compensation.

Benham, Bryan | Ryle and the para-mechanical | The thesis of this paper is the unconventional claim that Gilbert Ryle is not a logical behaviorist. The popular account of Ryle clearly places his work in The Concept of Mind (1949) in the camp of logical behaviorist.1 The object of this paper, however, will be to illustrate how the conventional in... | Behaviorist; Logical behaviorism | 2000 |

Francis, Leslie | Legitimate expectations, unreasonable beliefs, and legally mandated coverage of experimental therapy | Photographs of patients seeking contributions for expensive bone marrow transplants are an everyday image on supermarket checkout stands.

Millgram, Elijah | Does the categorical imperative give rise to a contradiction in the will? | The Brave New World-style utilitarian dystopia is a familiar feature of the cultural landscape; Kantian dystopias are harder to come by, perhaps because, until Rawls, Kantian morality presented itself as a primarily personal rather than political program. This asymmetry is peculiar for formal reas... | Categorical imperative; Dystopia; Self-refutation | 2003 |

Millgram, Elijah | Harman's hardness arguments | In "Change in View" Gilbert Harman produces arguments of the following pattern: Of two competing methods of belief revision, one is too hard; the other must therefore be the rational method. I will call arguments of this form hardness arguments. Hardness arguments are not, of course, peculiar to Har... | Philosophy;; Rationality; Reason; Cognition | 1991-09 |
