c_8wkh560fq364 | There was also considerable enmity between Positive punks (known today as goths) and the glamorously dressed New Romantics. In the late 1970s, punks were known to have had confrontations with hippies due to the contrasting ideologies and backlash of the hippie culture. Nevertheless, Penny Rimbaud of the English anarcho... | Punk subculture |
c_jolyljrnx4kr | Rimbaud also said that Crass were heavily involved with the hippie movement throughout the 1960s and 1970s, with Dial House being established in 1967.

c_ejfk2g3fn8qn | The punk scene began to emerge in socialist East Germany in the late 1970s. It shared many similarities with that of the West and was considered by the ruling authorities to be a spread of an international youth sub-culture which had its roots in the U.S. and Western Europe. Indeed, this was an assessment many East Ger... | Punk subculture |
c_ozv1jpeejkxu | According to one, Mario Schulz, "The start was that I liked the music. I did not quite understand the English texts, but this ostentatious experience as an outsider, this capacity to shock, that pleased me. | Punk subculture |
c_ohwpdg33r2tf | I was already- someone else would probably express it differently- an awkward sod." By the authorities, punk was seen as representing a way of life which was contrary in nature to existing social conventions and values.

c_c4n69nqtsj78 | Whilst it is hard to ascertain an exact figure, the punk scene in East Germany in the early 1980s was still relatively small. For example, 'In 1981, the Stasi (secret police) identified 1,000 punks and a broader group of 10,000 sympathisers.' Punks, whether considered as individuals or as groups, were persecuted by bot... | Punk subculture |
c_2bsfervkuobf | More overt methods of persecution by the regular police- such as enforced haircutting, arrest, and physical beatings- were combined unofficially with the more insidious and far-reaching decomposition methods (trans.

c_pa122ionf6z1 | In Peru punk traces its roots to the band Los Saicos, a Lima group that played the unique blend of garage and break dance music that would later be labeled punk as early as the 1960s. The early activity of Los Saicos has led many to claim that punk originated in Lima instead of the UK, as is typically assumed. Though t... | Punk subculture |
c_n9uizommw45b | Throughout the 1970s, the band was completely forgotten. Years later, a plaque that declares "here the global punk-rock movement was born" was placed at the corner of Miguel Iglesias and Julio C. Tello Streets in Lima.By the 1980s the punk scene in Peru was highly active. | Punk subculture |
c_rzuqs3dz0so1 | Peruvian punks call themselves subtes and appropriate the subversive implications of the English term "underground" through the Spanish term subterraneo (literally, subterranean).

c_7rrbnvc8e3cj | A punk subculture originated in Cuba in the 1980s, referred to as Los Frikis. As Cuban radio stations rarely played rock music, Frikis often listened to music by picking up radio frequencies from stations in nearby Florida.

c_iqduyvsd8kct | In philosophy, desire has been identified as a recurring philosophical problem. It has been variously interpreted as what compels someone towards the highest state of human nature or consciousness, as well as being posited as either something to be eliminated or a powerful source of potential. In Plato's The Republic, ... | Philosophy of desire |
c_e6cxpwjz2vjn | In Aristotle's De Anima the soul is seen to be involved in motion, because animals desire things and in their desire, they acquire locomotion. Aristotle argued that desire is implicated in animal interactions and the propensity of animals to motion. But Aristotle acknowledges that desire cannot account for all purposiv... | Philosophy of desire |
c_wiaae2xozih1 | In this way reason and desire work together to determine what is a good object of desire. This resonates with desire in the chariots of Plato's Phaedrus, for in the Phaedrus the soul is guided by two horses, a dark horse of passion and a white horse of reason. Here passion and reason, as in Aristotle, are also together... | Philosophy of desire |
c_e0h87k6fifhi | Socrates does not suggest the dark horse be done away with, since its passions make possible a movement towards the objects of desire, but he qualifies desire and places it in a relation to reason so that the object of desire can be discerned correctly, so that we may have the right desire. Aristotle distinguishes desi... | Philosophy of desire |
c_kmce6h5e7wfx | Aristotle makes the distinction as follows: Everything, too, is pleasant for which we have the desire within us, since desire is the craving for pleasure. Of the desires some are irrational, some associated with reason. By irrational I mean those which do not arise from any opinion held by the mind. Of this kind are th... | Philosophy of desire |
c_vgq3zudl1u29 | In Passions of the Soul, René Descartes writes of the passion of desire as an agitation of the soul that projects desire, for what it represents as agreeable, into the future. Desire in Immanuel Kant can represent things that are absent and not only objects at hand. Desire is also the preservation of objects already pr... | Philosophy of desire |
c_87x0u0050rrl | See also, the pleasure principle in psychology. In his Ethics, Baruch Spinoza declares desire to be "the very essence of man," in the "Definitions of the Affects" at the end of Part III. An early example of desire as an ontological principle, it applies to all things or "modes" in the world, each of which has a particu... | Philosophy of desire |
c_1r8cwcgry3tg | Different striving beings have different levels of power, depending on their capacity to persevere in being. Affects, or emotions which are divided into the joyful and the sad, alter our level of power or striving: joy is a passage "from a lesser to a greater perfection" or degree of power (III Prop. 11 Schol. | Philosophy of desire |
c_jnu03sh7bpz8 | ), just as sadness is the opposite. Desire, qualified by the imagination and the intellect, is an attempt to maximize power, to "strive to imagine those things that increase or aid the body's power of acting." (III Prop. | Philosophy of desire |
c_tza08eosi4n6 | 12). Spinoza ends the Ethics by a proposition that both moral virtue and spiritual blessedness are a direct result of essential power to exist, i.e. desire (Part V Prop. | Philosophy of desire |
c_xl5nty9oxrev | 42). In A Treatise on Human Nature, David Hume suggests that reason is subject to passion. Motion is put into effect by desire, passions, and inclinations. | Philosophy of desire |
c_xbjniame8klq | It is desire, along with belief, that motivates action. Immanuel Kant establishes a relation between the beautiful and pleasure in Critique of Judgment. He says "I can say of every representation that it is at least possible (as a cognition) it should be bound up with a pleasure. | Philosophy of desire |
c_gellci7h9ceg | Of representation that I call pleasant I say that it actually excites pleasure in me. But the beautiful we think as having a necessary reference to satisfaction." Desire is found in the representation of the object. | Philosophy of desire |
c_9mnl21y4efj1 | Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel begins his exposition of desire in Phenomenology of Spirit with the assertion that "self-consciousness is the state of desire (German: Begierde) in general." It is in the restless movement of the negative that desire removes the antithesis between itself and its object, "and the object of ... | Philosophy of desire |
c_xhjycg4bl8pm | Stoicism in this view has a negative attitude towards "otherness, to desire, and work." Reading Maurice Blanchot in this regard, in his essay Sade's Reason, the libertine is one of a type that sometimes intersects with a Sadean man, who finds in stoicism, solitude, and apathy the proper conditions. Blanchot writes, "th... | Philosophy of desire |
c_mpm3nwx6gkoy | Apathy in de Sade is opposition not to desire but to its spontaneity. Blanchot writes that in Sade, "for passion to become energy, it is necessary that it be constricted, that it be mediated by passing through a necessary moment of insensibility, then it will be the greatest passion possible." Here is stoicism, as a fo... | Philosophy of desire |
c_kvc6t23u2wxm | Blanchot says, "Apathy is the spirit of negation, applied to the man who has chosen to be sovereign." Dispersed, uncontrolled passion does not augment one's creative force but diminishes it. In his Principia Ethica, British philosopher G. E. Moore argued that two theories of desire should be clearly distinguished. | Philosophy of desire |
c_nujz7prnkrq3 | The hedonistic theory of John Stuart Mill states that pleasure is the sole object of all desire. Mill suggests that a desire for an object is caused by an idea of the possible pleasure that would result from the attainment of the object. The desire is fulfilled when this pleasure is achieved. | Philosophy of desire |
c_8qi7druqggb1 | On this view, the pleasure is the sole motivating factor of the desire. Moore proposes an alternative theory in which an actual pleasure is already present in the desire for the object and that the desire is then for that object and only indirectly for any pleasure that results from attaining it. "In the first place, p... | Philosophy of desire |
c_k4grgm3fc8ci | We may only be conscious of the thing which we desire, and may be impelled to make for it at once, without any calculation as to whether it will bring us pleasure or pain. In the second place, even when we do expect pleasure, it can certainly be very rarely pleasure only which we desire. On Moore's view, Mill's theory ... | Philosophy of desire |
c_4sudb4e8i86i | Moore provides the following example: "For instance, granted that, when I desire my glass of port wine, I have also an idea of the pleasure I expect from it, plainly that pleasure cannot be the only object of my desire; the port wine must be included in my object, else I might be led by my desire to take wormwood inste... | Philosophy of desire |
c_yrwlq5bpepvc | . If the desire is to take a definite direction, it is absolutely necessary that the idea of the object, from which the pleasure is expected, should also be present and should control my activity." For Charles Fourier, following desires (like passions or in Fourier's own words 'attractions') is a means to attain harmon... | Philosophy of desire |
c_jipsootrkbub | Within the teachings of Siddhartha Gautama (Buddhism), craving is thought to be the cause of all suffering that one experiences in human existence. The extinction of this craving leads one to ultimate happiness, or Nirvana. Nirvana means "cessation", "extinction" (of suffering) or "extinguished", "quieted", "calmed"; i... | Philosophy of desire |

c_n9mkayqrgxdw | Jacques Lacan's désir follows Freud's concept of Wunsch and it is central to Lacanian theories. For the aim of the talking cure—psychoanalysis—is precisely to lead the analysis and or patient to uncover the truth about their desire, but this is only possible if that desire is articulated, or spoken. Lacan said that "it... | Philosophy of desire |
c_w9dp3bbw6q40 | But it is not a question of recognizing something which would be entirely given. In naming it, the subject creates, brings forth, a new presence in the world." | Philosophy of desire |
c_qrgcn8j59u33 | "hat is important is to teach the subject to name, to articulate, to bring desire into existence." Now, although the truth about desire is somehow present in discourse, discourse can never articulate the whole truth about desire: whenever discourse attempts to articulate desire, there is always a leftover, a surplus.In... | Philosophy of desire |
c_ly8u5y0cl6zk | So, even after the need articulated in demand is satisfied, the demand for love remains unsatisfied and this leftover is desire. For Lacan "desire is neither the appetite for satisfaction nor the demand for love, but the difference that results from the subtraction of the first from the second" (article cited). Desire ... | Philosophy of desire |
c_dd3e44vt5fac | Lacan adds that "desire begins to take shape in the margin in which demand becomes separated from need." Hence desire can never be satisfied, or as Slavoj Žižek puts it "desire's raison d'être is not to realize its goal, to find full satisfaction, but to reproduce itself as desire." It is also important to distinguish ... | Philosophy of desire |
c_h6n0ovo8qb9c | Even though they both belong to the field of the Other (as opposed to love), desire is one, whereas the drives are many.

c_vvq4pbtrjxun | In agriculture, postharvest handling is the stage of crop production immediately following harvest, including cooling, cleaning, sorting and packing. The instant a crop is removed from the ground, or separated from its parent plant, it begins to deteriorate. Postharvest treatment largely determines final quality, wheth... | Postharvest |
c_mvfdfu7kuj0b | The most important goals of post-harvest handling are keeping the product cool, to avoid moisture loss and slow down undesirable chemical changes, and avoiding physical damage such as bruising, to delay spoilage.

c_fys2cbz0gjfx | Gifted education (also known as gifted and talented education (GATE), talented and gifted programs (TAG), or G&T education) is a sort of education used for children who have been identified as gifted and talented. The main approaches to gifted education are enrichment and acceleration. An enrichment program teaches add... | Gifted education |
c_weh34zyel56w | An acceleration program advances the student through the standard curriculum faster than normal. This is normally done by having the students skip one to two grades. Being gifted and talented usually means being able to score in the top percentile on IQ exams. The percentage of students selected varies, generally with ... | Gifted education |
c_ll0c3j4dmxv7 | Attempts to provide gifted education can be classified in several ways. Most gifted students benefit from a combination of approaches at different times. | Gifted education |
c_edpl1dvtwbsw | People are advanced to a higher-level class covering material more suited to their abilities and preparedness. This may take the form of skipping grades or completing the normal curriculum in a shorter-than-normal period of time ("telescoping"). Subject acceleration (also called partial acceleration) is a flexible appr... | Gifted education |
c_l09lyx024akx | This type of acceleration is usually based upon achievement testing, rather than IQ.

c_1xxjv80l776x | Acceleration presents gifted children with academic material from established curricula that is commensurate with their ability and preparedness, and for this reason is a low-cost option from the perspective of the school. This may result in a small number of children taking classes targeted at older children. For the ... | Gifted education |
c_59hjbhwyfr2l | Whole grade skipping is considered rapid acceleration.
