      flesch: 43
     summary: The results of this study suggests that ethnic group political exclusion is a key element in the generation of domestic terrorism and, therefore, policies aimed at fostering inclusiveness could be a useful counterterrorism tool. Furthermore, ethnic group political exclusion is a more consistent and substantive predictor of domestic terrorist activity than general political repression or economic discrimination.

     summary: Scientific knowledge is esteemed to be a systematic inquiry, which emphasizes the superiority of human reason over human intuitions, instincts and impulses. As fallout of Nietzsche’s irrationalist doctrines is the contention that the enterprise of science can be more comprehensive in terms of approach and method by acknowledging and adopting the irrational sources of human knowledge.

     summary: However, only a few scientists have shown interest in the methodology of science, as such; thereby leaving the conceptualization and critical evaluation of the idea of scientific method to philosophers of science. It involves how a scientific course of action or research program is being carried out, while scientific method refers to the rules of decision that guide the scientist on which particular technique to employ.

     summary: This is a philosophical position whose basic teaching on its source of knowledge holds that true knowledge can only be gotten through reasoning. Both Plato and Descartes maintain that true knowledge is already within us in the nature of innate ideas, which we do not acquire but are born within (Popkin and Stroll, 1993, p. 203), and the process of learning begins with these basic ideas known as innate.

According to philosophers and those who wrote on political economy in the late 18th century and most of the 19th century, the economic role of the State was limited to compensating for externalities and possible distortions arising from the dysfunction of markets and the provision of public goods.

     summary: Within the Nigerian situation or context, we hope finally to discuss why religion or religious morality cannot solve our problems. Apostles of religious morality (i.e. religion-based morality) maintain that all human actions, judged as moral, have their origin in a divine command and could not have come to be without this divine intervention/command.

Put differently, many have argued that, cultural relativism in its many strands, if allowed to stand will plunge the world into a theatre of intolerance and ultimately, conflict.

     summary: The study concludes that with effective oversight by business regulatory agencies, stricter enforcement of legal requirements for doing business in Nigeria, and corporate adoption of an ethical culture, ethical business practices can be restored in the Nigerian business environment, resulting in economic growth and development for the country. While governments must guarantee that individuals who break laws intended to prohibit unethical business conduct face consistent enforcement action, governments may also take proactive initiatives to promote ethical business behaviour before the occurrence of unethical activities.

Ecofeminism, therefore, as a way of repairing social and ecological injustice, calls on women to work towards creating a healthy environment and ending the destruction of lands that most women, especially rural women rely on to provide for their families (Vareba et al, 2019, p. 18).

     summary: Muzan (2014) opined that the insurgency in northern Nigeria appears to be an outlier among all these security issues and has been gaining power, sophistication, and most significantly, has become highly frightening and tough to combat. For instance, Nwanegbo and Odigbo (2013) stated that “between July 27, 2009 and February 17, 2012, Boko Haram has launched fifty (53) attacks in which 1,157 people were killed and hundreds of people injured in northern Nigeria.”

     summary: Perhaps by separate or independent existence, Plato meant to show us how there could be many individual things that all have one and the same universal or nature or essence while still being individual. The very fact of existence seen in birth; the coming into life and death- passing away from life informed questions not only about personal destiny but longer questions about how persons and things come into existence can be at different times and pass out of existence only to be followed by other things or persons.

     summary: Huffman further argued that “those involved in religious terrorism see violence as an act of sacrament or divine duty carried out in direct response to some theological requests or expectations” (43). According to Omomia, the current spate of religious terrorism in Nigeria is concealed by the perpetrators as a desire to “fight for God”.

     summary: For instance, in The Will to Power, he says that “Life is will to power” and that “the only reality is the will to grow stronger of every center of force – not self-preservation, but the will to appropriate, dominate, increase, grow stronger” (Friedrich Nietzsche, 1967: 367; see also 35-39, 355-356). 27 Nietzschean Will-To-Power In his books and those of his commentators, the will-to-power is expressed in the following terms: the dominating will, an insatiable desire to manifest power, willing to be stronger, the will to outdo, excel and overpower one another, etc. From the foregoing, it can be said that the will-to-power, for Nietzsche, means the will to conquer or to overpower.

     summary: Nigeria state is unfortunately ever under the threats of centrifugal forces of ethnicism, fear of religious and cultural domination, which once precipitate a civil war (1960 – 1970). Hence, Nigeria state could borrow a leaf from Hobbes' Leviathan to make for a strong state which could bolster Nigeria statecraft, legitimacy of the government and the confidence of the Nigeria citizens in the Nigeria project.

       title: AN ANALYSIS OF THE KANTIAN FOUNDATION OF HUSSERLIAN TRANSCENDENTAL PHENOMENOLOGY
        date: 2024
       words: 5267
      flesch: 47
     summary: Although, it is possible to interpret Kantian “things in themselves” in a way compatible with Husserl transcendental philosophy, there is still the strong suggestion that they have a causal role in Kant’s epistemology, which Husserl thinks is obscured. With regards to transcendental phenomenology, this paper aims to analyse Kant and Husserl’s similarities and differences, in terms of methodologies and interpretations, with a view to showing that Kant provided the epistemological manure for the fruitful germination of Husserl’s transcendental phenomenology.

      flesch: 67
     summary: Human freedom is seen by Sartre in terms of negation, nihilation and nothingness. 40 Absolutism of Freedom in Sartre’s Existentialism Sartre is usually misunderstood as having an exaggerated view of human freedom, no doubt because of the claims in the “Existentialism and Humanism” lecture that there is no determinism; we are free, we are freedom, we are condemned to be free.

      flesch: 61
     summary: Abstract One of the ideological confusion of our time is the claim that Christianity and Marxism should have come to be regarded as mutually compatible, not only by some members of left-wing organizations and movements, but also within certain sectors of the Church itself. Indeed, some enthusiasts go so far as to say that Christianity and Marxism complement each other, and at the extreme end of the scale, there are a number of pundits who posited that they are fundamentally identical.

     summary: The study establishes that the negative programme of Wiredu’s conceptual decolonization which enjoins African scholars to think effectively using African languages as proposed by him is almost impossible to apply. His positive programme has to do with the judicious exploitation of the enormous “resources” of African conceptual frameworks in philosophical exercises or reflections.

The Notion of Death: African Perspective The African people like other people in other continents of the world, fear or dread the occurrence of death at any time, and the causes of death are normally searched for especially when the explanation is not visible to members of the family, even when it is visible the intension behind it, is sought by the living members of the family.

     summary: The findings of this paper are that international cooperation is fundamental in mitigating the challenges of global warming; nature is an integral part of human beings and sentient beings. In concurrence with Baradat's above theoretical position, Hoffman and Graham (2009, 363-364) further argued that “whereas environmentalists share a post-Enlightenment belief in the uniqueness of the human perspective on the world—that is, they place human beings above, or outside, nature—ecologists challenge that philosophical position, maintaining that human life only has value insofar as it is a 'knot' in the 'net' of life, a net which connects together not only non- human animals, but non-sentient entities, such as trees, rivers and mountains”.

     summary: We shall look at the process of recreating African history and its precursors and look at the periodization of Africa's history and its shortcomings and make potent suggestions on the way forward. Writing African history in general has been challenging and mostly difficult, due to a lack of both comprehensive written records and holistic archaeological evidence that covers all the zones of Africa from past times.

     summary: Instead, he suggests that these debates should be re-conceptualised to reflect a recognition that what propels them is an essentially religious disagreement about the intrinsic value of human life (Shiffrin, 2004, 195).With regard to abortion, John D. Inazu in his 2012 essay, “The Limits of Integrity,” points out that Dworkin identifies three values at issue in the constitutional debate over abortion: (I) law as integrity; (II) the rights and interests of persons; and (III) the sacredness of human life. The last value that Dworkin regards in his interpretation of the problem of abortion is the sacredness of human life.
