Cosmopolitanism About Culture: Specifying Individualism
2021
Still drawing on the classical distinction between moderate and extreme cosmopolitanism, this chapter analyses different specifications of the individualism element providing different answers to what it means to respect individuals as moral equals. The analysis eventually presents eight types of specification but rejects all of them as either still too broad or untenable. Only a hybrid type, which is composed of assumptions of different specification types, appears more promising. This defines the new concept of cosmopolitanism: cosmopolitanism as nonrelationism.
Confinement of charged dust particles by a hybrid-type electric curtain
2012
Abstract The hybrid-type electric curtain (HTEC) comprises a planar electric curtain and a perpendicular planar condenser. Serial cylindrical electrodes are supplied with AC voltage, whereas the condenser is fed with DC voltage. HTEC allows for better control of the particle position shift in space. The particle oscillation path within the hybrid curtain has been photographically analysed. The changing particle path was recorded according to a DC changing voltage value and a constant AC voltage value. The aim of the paper is to describe a successful method that enables one to experimentally determine the region where the particle can be stably oscillated.
