  This is the untold story of an epic theme park mania that roiled East Asia for three decades. 
  Everyone knows the economic version of the story: Japan, Korea, and China industrialized at lightning speed. These export powerhouse developed mighty infrastructure bases and global conglomerates the envy of the world. Their ascent to economic domination was uncannily sequential. 
  But fewer realize that each country's path to prosperity has also involved a meandering, hallucinatory path through a theme park. Beginning in the 1990s, Japan, Korea, and China were gripped by a feverish pursuit of theme park grandeur. Over the next 30 years, some of the largest, most fantastical wonderlands ever conceived were built, destroyed, and dreamed. 
  While all manias reveal human foibles and absurdity, this story is also a deeply human one about unbridled hope and staggering ambition.

  Answer to the Question An: What...

  Immanuel Kant

  "Answering the Question: What Is Enlightenment?" is a 1784 essay by the philosopher Immanuel Kant. In the December 1784 publication of the Berlinische Monatsschrift (Berlin Monthly), edited by Friedrich Gedike and Johann Erich Biester, Kant replied to the question posed a year earlier by the Reverend Johann Friedrich Zöllner, who was also an official in the Prussian government. Zöllner's question was addressed to a broad intellectual public community, in reply to Biester's essay entitled: "Proposal, not to engage the clergy any longer when marriages are conducted" (April 1783) and a number of leading intellectuals replied with essays, of which Kant's is the most famous and has had the most impact. Kant's opening paragraph of the essay is a much-cited definition of a lack of enlightenment as people's inability to think for themselves due not to their lack of intellect, but lack of courage.
  Kant's essay also addressed the causes of a lack of enlightenment and the preconditions necessary to make it possible for people to enlighten themselves. He held it necessary that all church and state paternalism be abolished and people be given the freedom to use their own intellect. Kant praised Frederick II of Prussia for creating these preconditions. Kant focused on religious issues, saying that "our rulers" had less interest in telling citizens what to think in regard to artistic and scientific issues.

  Feminist Philosophy - Rethinking...

  Hector Davidson

  Feminist philosophy has emerged as a critical lens for understanding and deconstructing gender roles, power structures, and the ways in which societal norms shape individual identities. At its core, feminist philosophy challenges traditional, patriarchal systems that often position women and marginalized genders as secondary to men. It is not merely a critique of these systems but an exploration of alternative ways of thinking about power, justice, and equality. Feminist philosophers have sought to unravel the deep-rooted assumptions about gender, questioning how these assumptions limit the full potential of individuals and societies. 
  The intersection of gender, power, and identity plays a pivotal role in feminist thought. Feminist philosophers argue that gender is not a natural or static characteristic but a social construct shaped by historical, cultural, and political forces. This perspective invites us to reconsider the rigid distinctions between what is typically considered "masculine" and "feminine," and challenges the belief that these roles are inherent or unchangeable. It also calls attention to the ways in which power dynamics inform our understanding of gender. Feminism examines how power operates not just in political or economic spheres, but in everyday interactions, personal relationships, and within institutions.
