Remarks on Challenging Capitalist Modernity

Remarks on microperiodic multifunctions

It is well known that a microperiodic function mapping a topological group into reals, which is continuous at some point is constant. We introduce the notion of a microperiodic multifunction, defined on a topological group with values in a metric space, and study regularity conditions implying an analogous result. We deal with Vietoris and Hausdorff continuity concepts.Stability of microperiodi...

Interpreted Modernity Weber and Taylor on Values and Modernity

The writings of Weber and Taylor have some strong affinities. Both start from the anthropological idea that man evaluates his position in the world and constitutes the social world by values. Their analyses of values aim at an understanding of those intersubjective meanings that have constituted western modernity. But, at the same time, their anthropological starting point leads to different in...

Remarks on Distance-Balanced Graphs

Distance-balanced graphs are introduced as graphs in which every edge uv has the following property: the number of vertices closer to u than to v is equal to the number of vertices closer to v than to u. Basic properties of these graphs are obtained. In this paper, we study the conditions under which some graph operations produce a distance-balanced graph.
