Cosmopolitanism as Nonrelationism and Relevant Duties of Justice
2021
This chapter clarifies the new concept of cosmopolitanism as nonrelationism and embeds it in the academic debate. In defence of the new concept, it clarifies how personal relationships can be valued without treating them as a basis for justifying special responsibilities between related individuals. The argument distinguishes between different kinds of responsibilities based on a responsibility framework developed from conceptual considerations of Hart and O’Neill as well as Pettit and Goodin. It reveals that not all kinds of responsibilities are equally relevant with regard to matters of justice.
Refuting the Relationist Challenge: Room for Partiality Rather Than Advocating Special Duties
2021
Building on the responsibility framework developed in the previous chapter, this chapter completes the argument. It refutes the relationist challenge that personal relations require special responsibilities qualifying as relevant for matters of justice. The argument focuses Scheffler’s relationist arguments and demonstrates how his critique of nonrelationism can be resolved by differentiating between different types of responsibility.
Argumentativeness and political participation: A cross-cultural analysis in the United States and Turkey
2013
This study is an examination of the relationship between argumentativeness and political participation and the moderating effect of nationality on this relationship. Through a survey analysis of 801 individuals in the United States (592) and Turkey (209), the following was found: Americans are more argumentative than Turks, Turks participate more in politics than Americans, argumentativeness and political participation are not significantly correlated, and nationality does not significantly affect the relationship between argumentativeness and political participation. Cultural differences between the United States and Turkey are discussed as reasons for differences between the two nations i…
Territorialization in Political Discourse: A Pragma-Linguistic Study of Jerzy Buzek’s Inaugural Speeches
2011
The purpose of this study is to review some discursive strategies used to (de)territorialize the European public sphere by the newly elected President of the European Parliament Jerzy Buzek. A corpus of his inaugural speeches (over 7,000 words) is examined in order to identify salient pragma-linguistic devices, such as for example high-frequency references, linguistic markers of identities, values and interests, as well as metaphors and argumentative schemata. These are presumed to have been used by Buzek to territorialize the presidential office: to position himself as its leader, to establish his credibility, to become its agenda-setter. Additionally, the analysis focuses on the way Buzek…

Human Sociability in Antonio Montecatini's (1537–99) Commentary on Aristotle's Politics
2021
The present article delves into the history of political philosophy by discussing human sociability in Antonio Montecatini's (1537–99) commentary on Aristotle's Politics. The focus is on a philosophical analysis of three interrelated ideas that Montecatini discusses: (1) Aristotle's dictum that human beings are political animals by nature; (2) naturalness of the household; and (3) the nature and origin of political communities. Montecatini's views are briefly related to those of John Case (ca. 1546–1600), and they are also contextualized within the late medieval commentary tradition on the Politics, but the main aim is to clarify Montecatini's philosophical position and examine the ways in …
