Este trabalho analisa o diálogo entre Cass Sunstein e Ronald Dworkin. Enquanto Dworkin desenvolveu uma abordagem da prática jurídica como a continuação de uma grande teoria baseada em valores morais, Sunstein recomenda um caminho supostamente mais modesto, baseado em passos obtidos em acordos que pudessem ser alcançados por pessoas com convicções morais diversas. A escolha por esse caminho é justificada não só por razões institucionais, mas também por razões morais e políticas substantivas. A crítica central de Sunstein a Dworkin é um suposto ponto cego quanto às questões de capacidade institucional. Sunstein pode ser lido de duas maneiras: como um autor essencialmente pragmático (e incompatível com Dworkin) ou como um interpretativista ao modo Dworkiniano. Conforme o caso, os contornos do seu diálogo com Dworkin são diferentes. De acordo com a primeira leitura, o argumento do ponto cego levantado por Sunstein tem o objetivo de desqualificar todo o projeto teórico Dworkiniano, na medida em que o problema das capacidades institucionais seria tomado como fundamento para um tipo específico de ceticismo moral, o que inutilizaria o critério de correção moral que embasa o interpretativismo Dworkiniano. Essa visão considera que o debate entre Sunstein e Dworkin seria um capítulo do debate entre Dworkin e os pragmatistas céticos. Nos termos da segunda leitura, Sunstein não é um cético na verdade, ele pressupõe um interpretativismo Dworkiniano e sua posição é complementar à obra de Dworkin. No capítulo I, analiso alguns trabalhos centrais de Sunstein e concluo que ele é melhor lido como um Dworkiniano, visto sua teoria pressupõe valores independentes. No capítulo II, estudo os principais pontos da teoria do direito de Dworkin e sugiro que o conceito de integridade, entendido como um conceito corretivo que serve para construir um sistema judicial no qual os juízes podem barganhar uma concepção de justiça ideal por outros fatores do mundo real, indica que a teoria Dworkiniana pode sim ser sensível às questões empíricas e de capacidade institucional. No capítulo III, identifico os pontos do confronto direto entre Sunstein e Dworkin e exponho o proveito que pode ser extraído do estudo desse debate. / This dissertation analyzes the dialogue between Cass Sunstein and Ronald Dworkin. While Dworkin developed an approach that sees the legal practice as a continuum of a greater theory based on moral values, Sunstein recommends a supposedly more modest approach, based on steps obtained in agreements which could be achieved by people holding different moral convictions. The choice of this path is justified not only for institutional reasons, but also for moral and political reasons. The central criticism of Sunstein against Dworkin is a \"blind spot\" with respect to the institutional capacities of judges. Sunstein can be read in two ways: as an essentially pragmatist author (and incompatible with Dworkin) or as an interpretative Dworkinian. As the case may be, the contours of his debate with Dworkin are different. Under to the first reading, the \"blind spot\" argument raised by Sunstein aims to disqualify any Dworkinian theoretical project to the extent that the problem of institutional capacities should be taken as the basis for a specific type of moral skepticism, which would deny the claim to moral correctness that supports Dworkinian interpretativism. In this case, that the debate between Dworkin and Sunstein should be seen as a chapter of the debate between Dworkin and the skeptic legal pragmatists. Under the the second reading, Sunstein is not a skeptic - in fact, he presupposes a Dworkinian interpretativism and his position is complementary to Dworkins work. In Chapter I, I analyze Sunsteins central work on legal interpretation and conclude that he is best read as a Dworkinian, as his theory assumes independent values. In Chapter II, I study the main points of Dworkins jurisprudence and I suggest that the concept of integrity, understood as a \"corrective\" concept used to build a judicial system in which judges can bargain an ideal conception of justice by other factors of the real world, indicates that Dworkin´s theory can be sensitive to the empirical institutional capacities raised by Sunstein. In Chapter III, identify the points of direct confrontation between Sunstein and Dworkin and explain the agenda that can be extracted from the debate.

Esta é uma pesquisa sobre a identificação de divergências inconciliáveis. Joseph Raz é um dos principais expositores contemporâneos do positivismo jurídico, porém sua tese não apenas é controversa, como também mal compreendida. Nesta pesquisa, defendo o argumento de que a má compreensão deve-se ao fato de ser ignorada uma premissa ontológica adotada por Raz. O filósofo supõe que práticas sociais não se referem a nada mais do que fatos socialmente praticados e, portanto, não as reconhece como fonte de normatividade. Com base nesse pressuposto, a natureza do direito não poderia ser investigada do mesmo modo como se investigaria a natureza de um jogo lúdico: aos olhos de Raz, ambos possuem estruturas lógicas e normativas completamente distintas. Com isso em vista, sustento que a divergência a respeito dessa questão de ordem ontológica gera um impasse insolúvel no debate a respeito da normatividade do direito. Para testar o argumento, examino as críticas que Dennis Patterson, Gerald Postema, Kenneth E. Himma, Nicos Stavropoulos, Ronald Dworkin e Stephen Perry fazem à teoria do direito de Joseph Raz. / This is a research on the grounds of irreconcilable disagreements. Joseph Raz is one of the leading authors of legal positivism, whose theory generated a lot of controversy, matched only by the same degree of misapprehension. This research argues that this is due to the fact that an ontological premise held by Raz has been largely ignored. The philosopher considers that social practices are nothing more than socially practiced facts and, therefore, do not acknowledge them as a source of normativity. Furthermore, on that token, laws nature cannot be known and investigated in the same way games are known: according to Raz, both have completely different logical and normative structures. I sustain that there cannot be any fruitful debate regarding the normativity of law, until this ontological matter is not approached. This thesis was tested on the criticism made to the razian theory by Patterson, Gerald Postema, Kenneth E. Himma, Nicos Stavropoulos, Ronald Dworkin and Stephen Perry.

《魔戒》（The Lord of the Rings）是現代奇幻小說的代表作品，由英國語文學家、牛津大學教授托爾金創作，自二十世紀五十年代中期分三卷出版後，帶動了奇幻小說此一文學類型在英美的興起。現在流行的奇幻小說，不少仿照了托爾金《魔戒》的架構和寫法。 / 現代奇幻小說核心概念之一，是要建構一個令讀者信任的“架空世界。小說家為了創造這種獨立存在的想像世界，各出奇謀，手法不一。托爾金塑造架空世界的技巧，很大程度上來自他愛好並從事研究的領域--語言及其歷史發展。在《魔戒》的架空世界中，托爾金刻意經營了一個獨特的語言系統，本研究稱之為“奇幻語言。這個系統至少涵蓋古語、新創語和命名系統三個層面：古語隱含“中土大地 種族發展的歷史；新創語映現了種族不同而語言各殊的現象；命名系統則是前兩者的集中呈現。三者互有關聯，其相互作用加強了架空世界的内部邏輯。 / 本研究擬從奇幻語言這三個層面入手，結合中國語言及文學的特色，分析四個《魔戒》中譯本的處理手法，藉此探討不同中譯本分別呈現出來的《魔戒》面貌，以及譯文衍生的變異狀況。本研究的分析指出，架空世界的成功變形與再生，有賴譯者對作者奇幻構想的整全掌握，並在譯文中重建一套與作者奇幻構思契合、而又自洽自足的內部邏輯。 / The Lord of the Rings (LOTR) by John Ronald Reuel Tolkien (1892-1973) marked the birth of modern fantasy fiction as a genre when it was published in three volumes in the 1950s. The structure and writing techniques of LOTR have been imitated by many fantasy novels since then. / Constructing a trustworthy “Secondary World is one of the most important aims of modern fantasy novels. To reach that goal, novelists employ various methods to create such an independent existence. Tolkien’s techniques in building his Secondary World come largely from Philology, his specialized research area which studies the histories of, and relationships between, languages. An ingenious language system, named in this thesis as “fantastic language, is designed and embedded into the story of LOTR by Tolkien. It covers at least three aspects, namely archaism, invented languages and nomenclature. Archaism indicates and suggests a long history behind the Middle-earth; invented languages show how languages differ among various races; nomenclature is the intersection of the former two aspects. The interaction between the three aspects of the fantastic language enhances the inner logic of the Secondary World, making it appear to be more consistent and real. / This thesis will analyze and discuss different representations of Tolkien’s Secondary World by exploring four Chinese translations of fantastic language in LOTR with reference to specific features of Chinese language and literature. This thesis points out that the successful transformation and re-creation of a Secondary World depends on a thorough understanding of the author’s imagination, and a re-construction of a self-consistent logic compatible with the author’s design. / Detailed summary in vernacular field only. / Detailed summary in vernacular field only. / Detailed summary in vernacular field only. / 張甜. / "2013年7月". / "2013 nian 7 yue". / Thesis (M.Phil.)--Chinese University of Hong Kong, 2013. / Includes bibliographical references (leaves 194-211). / Electronic reproduction.

In 1922, as the Missionary Secretary of the Student Christian Movement in UK, R. O. participated in the World's Student Christian Federation (WSCF), which gave him a special relationship with China and predestined him for his service in Hong Kong. During the Sino-Japanese War time, R. O. led and participated in many social movements, which strongly supported China to fight for freedom. Among these movements, the Chinese Industrial Co-operation Movement is the most famous one, through which R. O. maintained good relations with both Kuomingtang(KMT) and Chinese Communist Party (CCP). As a far-sighted church leader, he was deeply committed to building up a vigorous Chinese church. He was ahead of his time in ordaining Mok Sau Tseng as the first Chinese assistant bishop in South China in 1935, as well as ordaining Deaconess Florence Li Tim-Oi to be the first woman priest in the world in 1944. In 1956, R. O. visited the New Communist China as the first church leader from Hong Kong; after this visit, he was called "the pink Bishop". Because he then began to promote a positive view on the role of Communism in the development of China. Hong Kong in the 1950s and 1960s faced considerable social pressures. In the meantime, R. O. led the churches in massive response to the millions of refugees and played a significant role as one of the chief architects of the miracle of the post-war years in Hong Kong. Whether in Britain, China or Hong Kong, his concern for China and Chinese people was his expression of God's will in China in practice. / Ronald Owen Hall was an important and remarkable figure in the history of Christianity in China as the seventh Bishop of Hong Kong Anglican Church. He served as bishop of Hong Kong 34 years (1932-1966), which included being the Bishop of South China of Chung Hua Sheng Kung Hui (CHSKH) (1932-1951). / Though he has been well recognized as an influential figure, it is unfortunately that not much has been systematically written on his contribution to the history of Christianity in China. This dissertation therefore focuses on Bishop Hall and his relationship with China, and seeks to shed light on it through research about Bishop Hall, especially how deeply his unique theology influenced his relation to China. The study endeavors to explore how Bishop Hall sought to convey in practice God's will for China in interface between western Christian tradition and Chinese society. The historical data presented in this paper is based on a thorough and broad review of primary materials. The primary resources used in this thesis include the Archives of Bishop R. O. Hall and other relevant and important archives. Through this case study, it hopes to provide new insight on the missionary history in 20 Century. / 吳青. / Source: Dissertation Abstracts International, Volume: 70-06, Section: A, page: 2188. / Thesis (doctoral)--Chinese University of Hong Kong, 2008. / Includes bibliographical references (p. 194-203). / Electronic reproduction.

The work begins with the study of Dworkin s political theory, the cornerstones of which are liberalism not as a principle, but as an actual political structure; equality as a political virtue; and ethics as the source of two principles that base his theory: the principle of intrinsic value and the principle of personal responsibility. Then, it presents the study of the juridical theory of Dworkin, analyzing the importance of hermeneutics and the study of the several concepts of Law in the development of a new concept of Law. Finally, we reach the study of the citizenship, making an analysis of its conceptions, its relation with political rights, democracy and individual rights, as well as the influence of the globalization phenomenon in its concepts, principles and exercise, offering, as a paradigm and solution, Ronald Dworkin s political and juridical theories. / Esta dissertação tem o objetivo de, ao apresentar as teorias política e da justiça de Ronald Dworkin, baseadas no tripé liberalismo, igualdade e ética, torná-las um caminho para o efetivo exercício da cidadania, em um cenário político-jurídico-econômico afetado pelo fenômeno da globalização. O trabalho inicia-se com o estudo da teoria política de Dworkin que tem como alicerces o liberalismo não como princípio, mas como verdadeira estrutura política; a igualdade como virtude política e a ética, fonte de dois princípios basilares à sua teoria: o da igual importância (ou do valor intrínseco) e o da responsabilidade especial. Passa-se ao estudo da teoria jurídica de Dworkin, analisando a importância da hermenêutica jurídica e do estudo das diversas concepções do Direito à elaboração de um novo conceito de Direito. Finalmente, alcançamos o estudo da cidadania, analisando a evolução de suas concepções, sua relação com os direitos políticos, o regime democrático e as liberdades individuais, bem como a influência do fenômeno da globalização em seus conceitos, princípios e exercício, oferecendo, como paradigma e solução, as teorias jurídica e política de Dworkin.

Data obtained through content analysis of articles about or concerning President Reagan in Newsweek, Time and U.S. News & World Report during two time periods indicated that no relationship existed between time and variance of news coverage given to Reagan. Three content analysis measures were used: comparison of favorable and unfavorable statements, amount of coverage and number of quoted words. The study is composed of four chapters: Chapter I introduces the study, Chapter II presents the data, Chapter III evaluates the data and Chapter IV summarizes and makes recommendations.
