Consent: A Critical Study of Some of the Postulates in the Social Theory of Locke and KropotkinMonin, Derek Paul January 1971 (has links)
<p>In the course of the last fifteen years political philosophy has undergone momentous changes, induced from without as well as from within. While the behaviourists have been questioning the normative theorists, these theorists themselves have been reassessing their skills and objectives. As a result, from what had been feared to be a situation of irreversible decline there has emerged a new literature, still dynamic, though now more circumspect. Political philosophy has become more careful about its claims and more firmly grounded in the findings of all the empirical social sciences.<br /><br />I hope that this study is in harmony with the mood and demands of the 'new' political philosophy. I must acknowledge a heavy reliance on the work of C. B. Macpherson and Michael Oakeshott, and on the series edited by P.Laslett and W. G. Runciman, for inspiration, material and methodology.</p> / Master of Arts (MA)

The Relevance of Education to National DevelopmentMcConvey, Lynn Mary 05 1900 (has links)
<p>Although development analysts have long stressed that education in the economically underdevelopment countries (E.U.C.'s) must be relevant to the environment and 'practical' in nature, there is a great deal still to be done to determine better 'theory' of the role of education in developing the E.U.C.'s. Values need to be established, terms defined, the significant variables located, and hypotheses and generalizations must be suggested, tested and modified.<br /> With theses limitations in mind, this thesis includes a comparative analysis of the British and French educational policies in three West African colonies. The purpose of this analysis is to obtain some generalizations regarding educational policy which is suitable at the present time for West Africa. The thesis also contains an appendix in which the author looks closely at the traditional social structures in Northern Nigeria. An attempt is made to show the retarding effects of the failure to introduce formal educational institutions in the North, as they were in the South. The author concludes that there would be no point in restoring the Federation (assuming this were possible), once the civil war is finished, unless the approach to education in the North could be immediately revamped, that is, brought into line with the prescriptions for educational policy set out in the body of the thesis.</p> / Master of Arts (MA)

Lawyers and Political ParticipationPasis, Edward Harvey 10 1900 (has links)
<p>This study attempts to ascertain which lawyers "enter politics and why they do so, and why other lawyers neither enter" nor participate. To carry out this study, lawyers in the Hamilton area are divided into two groups: lawyer-politicians and non-politician lawyers. Then, by means of personal interviews, both groups are compared as to their early political background or interest" their personality types or traits, their attitudes, and their goals in life, in order to ascertain if any, or all of these approaches offer an explanation for the problem being studied.</p> / Master of Arts (MA)

The Theory of Natural Law in Relation to the Right of Individual and Collective Resistance Against Unjust GovernmentSpring, John William January 1968 (has links)
<p>The theory of natural law is analysed in relation to the concept of a right to resistance. A Western liberal tradition is posited as identified with Cicero and the Stoics, Aquinas, and Locke. The Lockean doctrine of resistance is particularly noted in connection with the American Revolution. This doctrine is argued as deficient in its failure to emphasise non-violent resistance. The central argument of this paper is therefore that, according to the theory of natural law, resistance to government should initially be expressed in terms of non-violent resistance. Certain objections to this argument are also considered.</p> / Master of Arts (MA)

The Role of Tanzanian Socialist DoctrineJones, Sean 04 1900 (has links)
<p>The Thesis examines the role of the ideology of socialism, as defined by Julius Nyerere, in the post independent years of Tanzania. Theoretical works will be cited. They list the possible roles an ideology can play. In addition, 'factors' that effect the role of an ideology at a specific time will be considered. The thesis will relate these possible roles to the Tanzanian experience.</p> <p>In our investigation the concepts of Tanzanian socialism will be articulated. The relationship between social pressures and the formulation of the ideology, and the influence of that ideology on Tanzanian development will also be observed. Drawing from the Tanzanian experience, some broad conclusions will be made concerning the power of an ideology to aid modernization programmes in under-developed nations.</p> / Master of Arts (MA)
