    Causation in History: Mendel F. Cohen.Mendel F. Cohen - 1987 - Philosophy 62 (241):341-360.
    Following the practice of human beings everywhere historians distinguish the real or most significant cause of an occurrence or state of affairs from ‘less important considerations’, ‘precipitating circumstances’, or ‘mere conditions’. I shall term claims that some phenomenon is most basically to be attributed to some one of the factors causally necessary for its occurrence attributive causal explanations or causal attributions and discuss here the extent to which moral convictions are constitutive of them.

    Motives, causal necessity, and moral accountability.Mendel F. Cohen - 1964 - Australasian Journal of Philosophy 42 (3):322 – 334.
    The author argues, Contra hume, That "the motives of human action are not related to the action in the way in which the causes of the sort of physical behaviour to which hume refers are related to that behaviour." the author contends this because he is opposed to the consequence of hume's theory that "moral appraisal presupposes 'necessity' or determinism." he concludes that we do have to explain morality in terms of human motives, But that a different sort of causality (...)

    Obligation and human nature in Hume's philosophy.Mendel F. Cohen - 1990 - Philosophical Quarterly 40 (160):316-341.
    It is commonly held that moral judgements are implicitly general — or universalizable — in that if anyone is morally obligated to perform or refrain from some action, everyone in relevantly similar circumstances is similarly obligated. I undertake here to show that David Hume fully subscribed to this thesis and that because of the way it is related to his conceptions of obligation and what he terms the practicality of morals he is pushed to insist that the moral sentiments of (...)

    We Lack a Culture: Reflections on Hebrew Education.Emmanuel Levinas, Mendel Kranz & Denis Poizat - 2020 - Levinas Studies 14:1-18.
    he following is an essay by Emmanuel Levinas, newly translated by Mendel Kranz, concerning Jewish culture and education, Hebrew studies, and Zionism. The essay was first published in 1954 in the United States by The Alliance Review, a small journal affiliated with the Alliance israélite universelle, and has since been almost entirely forgotten. In 2011–2012, it was republished in French by Denis Poizat based on the original draft found in the Alliance archives. Preceding Levinas’s essay is a preface by (...)

    On Retroactive Instrumentality.Maria Mendel - 2022 - Educational Theory 72 (3):369-382.
    The topic of instrumentalism has engaged many scholars of contemporary educational thought. One can distinguish the positions of anti-instrumentalism from those that stress noninstrumental values of education, both conceived in the context of neoliberal/neoconservative and consumption-driven reality. In this text, Maria Mendel enters into this engagement from the perspective of the current political consumption of memory. While taking up the problem of the role public pedagogy plays in contemporary nation-states — especially in the current turn toward the past — (...)

Alors, dès le premier pas, l'acte vient à la rencontre de l'action-projet qui agrégeait dans votre tête réflexion, délibération, argumentation, décision, volonté. L'acte est une aventure.

    Parents, crises and beyond. Towards school as a shared place and a more-than-human world.Maria Mendel - 2022 - ENCYCLOPAIDEIA 26 (63):69-82.
    This paper presents an attempt to describe parents’ activities, in which context it is puzzling that – on the basis of a negative assessment of the current reality (current crises, including the privatization of what is public) – parents seem to be searching intensively for new solutions that would make better not only the school but also the world it is a part of. Their focus, in this, is on the local dimension of activities that refer to sustainability and emphasize (...)

    Two Geometrical Examples From Aristotle's Metaphysics.Henry Mendell - 1984 - Classical Quarterly 34 (02):359-.
    The discussion of mathematical knowledge and its relation to the construction of an appropriate diagram in Aristotle's Metaphysics Θ 9. 1051 a21—33 is an important, if compressed, account of Aristotle's most mature thoughts on mathematical knowledge. The discussion of what sort of previous knowledge one must have for understanding a theorem recalls the discussion at An. Post. A 1. 71 a 17–21, where the epistemological point is similar and the examples the same. The first example, that the interior angles of (...)

    A new look at electromagnetic field theory.Mendel Sachs - 1980 - Foundations of Physics 10 (11-12):921-936.
    The most general expression of electromagnetic theory is examined in the light of (1) Faraday's interpretation of the field as a potentiality for the force of charged matter to act upon a test body, and (2) Einstein's view of the field equations as an example of a covariant expression of special relativity. Faraday's original interpretation, in which all physical variables must be expressible as nonsingular fields, implies a particular generalization of the standard forms of the conservation equations and leads to (...)

    A pulsar model from an oscillating black hole.Mendel Sachs - 1982 - Foundations of Physics 12 (7):689-708.
    The first part of this paper examines conditions in accord with Einstein's criterion of regularity on the field solutions everywhere that would correspond to the existence of a black hole star, following from solutions of his (nonvacuum) field equations. ‘Black hole’ is defined here as a star whose matter is so condensed as to correspond to a complete family of spatially closed geodesics. The condition imposed is that the angular momentum of a test body in each of the closed geodesics (...)
