2-Chloro-4-iodo­aniline

The title dihaloaniline, C6H5ClIN, shows no significant hydrogen bonds nor the commonly observed I⋯I inter­actions in the crystal structure, although an amino group and an I atom are available for such contacts. The crystal structure is stabilized by weak inter­actions involving the amine functionality as donor group and N or halogen atoms as acceptors

Untapped Potential: Empowering Teens as Mentors

Fact: high-risk youth are influenced by their peers more than any other factor or person. For this reason, cross-age peer mentoring increases the potential to positively impact youth unlike other programs. During this highly interactive workshop, participants will learn exactly how to implement a research-based, cross-age peer mentoring program in their specific settings

Friends, Enemies, Partisans: Schmitt and Kojève, the Cold War and the End of History

While as early as the second edition of The Concept of the Political (1932), Carl Schmitt had speculated on how the depoliticization of the political may reduce the international state system to a world of “entertainment.” It has been little remarked upon that Schmitt was in direct correspondence with Alexandre Kojève in the mid-1950s. This is unfortunate considering that not only are many of the ideas and issues they discussed novel in Schmitt’s oeuvre, but they would become pronounced in several articles and lectures leading up to and finding fulfillment in his much-neglected work, Theory of the Partisan (1963). This essay will throw light on this insufficiently noticed strand in Schmitt’s later thought, namely, the implications of Kojève’s Hegelian thesis that history was at an end and that they were now living in a stage of post-history. For Schmitt, the optimism generated by this idea had not only contributed to the Cold War being an “intermediate condition between war and peace,” but to the rise of partisan warfare as a central component of geopolitics. While both agreed that the state had come to an end, they disagreed profoundly on what that end entailed. Where Kojève saw Hegel’s Phenomenology as ushering in the end of history and an ensuing “universal and homogenous state,” Schmitt saw instead the concrete and historical-philosophical creation of the partisan, whose very existence is to challenge, and more importantly reject, such a state. This will be shown through their diverging conceptualizations of the state, the political, and history, as well as their opposed understandings of the philosophical-anthropological question of human being

Emporio in Chios Revisited: the Religious Landscape of an Early Iron Age Settlement in the Aegean

This thesis re-assesses the value of legacy sites such as Emporio in Chios in the scholarship of Early Iron Age sanctuaries and religious practice through the synthesis of old and new data and the adoption of an approach shaped by recent scholarship. The concept of a religious landscape forms an analytical frame, within which the research employs data from Emporio and the sanctuaries within its purview, including the Athena sanctuary, the Harbour sanctuary and the important extra-urban sanctuary at Kato Phana, to explore how the physical and cultural dimensions of the religious landscape of the settlement are constituted and interrelated. Analysis of the material remains of the constituent sites is based on datasets from a number of excavations conducted between 1915 and 2006. The experience of ritual action in and between the sites of ritual action is investigated using methods of phenomenological and sensorial archaeology. The conceptual or religious landscape is modelled as a network of interaction. Findings on the spatial organisation, material remains, and ritually experienced environment redefine the sites and their interconnections. The sanctuaries are demonstrated to be multivalent, fulfilling multiple purposes for local and visiting worshippers. Their deities are multivocal, expressing multiple roles and meanings. The relationships between the occupants of Emporio and the sanctuaries are reformulated through the mapping of material, cultural and ideological interconnections in the symbolic landscape at local, regional and broader scales. The case study confirms the potential for re-examination of legacy sites to contribute to wider debates on the role of sanctuaries in the local horizons of ancient Greek religion, and in the broader horizons of regional cultural interconnections and maritime religious networks
