The parallels and differences between current forms of populism early 20th-century fascism have been the focus for much discussion. This article examines relevance today Karl Mannheim’s analysis its relationship to democracy in 1930s. He argued that threat arose from very nature liberal democratic society, rather than being a product external forces. claimed is transitional, stable character, n...

Chia-Hao Cheng, Ching-Ho Chang, and Hwei-yu Chang (2011) Early-stage evolution of the neo-Y chromosome in Drosophila albomicans. Zoological Studies 50(3): 338-349. Numerous theories have specified that an originally autosomal neo-Y chromosome arm is expected to undergo degenerative evolution. Neosex chromosomes of Drosophila albomicans originated from 2 Robertsonian translocation events, one fo...

The “Advanced Propellant/Additive Development for Gas Generator” project is a collaborative effort between General Dynamics Ordnance and Tactical Systems (GD-OTS) and the Naval Air Warfare Center-Weapons Division (NAWCWD). The objectives of this NGP project are to develop new highly efficient, environmentally acceptable, chemically active fire suppressant capabilities based upon solid propellan...

This article critically examines the contemporary resurgence of empiricism (or “neo-empiricism”) in philosophy, psychology, neuropsychology, and artificial intelligence. This resurgence is an important and positive development. It is the first time that this centuries-old empiricist approach to cognition is precisely formulated in the context of cognitive science and neuroscience. Moreover, neo...

Researchers studying Y chromosome evolution have drawn attention to neo-Y chromosomes in Drosophila species due to their resembling the initial stage of Y chromosome evolution. In the studies of neo-Y chromosome of Drosophila miranda, the extremely low genetic diversity observed suggested various modes of natural selection acting on the nonrecombining genome. However, alternative possibility ma...
