Negando la culpabilidad moral y legal SEGUNDA METODOLOGÍA 7. La experimentación, metodología científica y lógica de descubrimiento: Los conceptos de posibilidad real, coincidencia y necesidad 8. La parte ética de la metodología científica
Keywords: Nicolai Hartmann, modalities, ontology, reality, system, experimentation, possibility theory, Diodoros Cronus, dogma, Cotard syndrome, modal realism, thinker, truth, absolute truth, x-ray, injury, radiology, Monsanto, professional ethics, methodology, rehabilitation, Wilhelm Roentgen, color, observation, environment, observer, object, system-thinking, problem-thinking
Resumen
Este artículo presenta ocho metodologías diferentes para dirigir observaciones y análisis de los procesos involucrados en la obtención de conocimiento a través del descubrimiento. El autor comienza aplicando la metodología de la filosofía sistemática a través de análisis comparativos de sistemas opuestos de pensamiento para revelar conceptos y subconceptos útiles para la adquisición de conocimiento. Se hace aplicando dudas sistemáticas y oponiéndose a subconceptos que se equivocan a través del pensamiento de sistema en lugar del pensamiento de problemas. En §7, el método científico se demuestra de forma concisa y se presenta con ejemplos en radiología. Incluye entrevistas y la lógica del descubrimiento en sus aplicaciones y la racionalidad de sus partes en el proceso de las ciencias. En §8.1, el análisis geográfico ético profesional y el análisis PESTLE en la teoría de la gestión empresarial se describen con análisis demográficos y comparativos internacionales, incluyendo los análisis de los mercados blancos, grises y negros relevantes. En §9.1 se presentan tres entrevistas con el técnico radiólogo Salvador Torres Pérez. En §10, se presenta un ejemplo de metodología científica cualitativa sobre la actividad laboral como preparación para cambiar tipos de valores con el fin de reevaluar análisis cuantitativos y metaanálisis. En §11, se demuestra la aplicación del método científico dentro de una metodología sistemática de gradaciones ordenadas de escepticismo con la metodología histórica filosófica aplicable a las ciencias. En §12, se proporciona un marco teórico de observación científica. En §13, la aplicación de dos metodologías presenta el proceso para denunciar las irregularidades en los lugares de trabajo. En §14, la pedagogía crítica intercultural comunicativa se aplica como una adición necesaria al método científico ético para continuar y mejorar la comunidad científica global y la democracia en los lugares de trabajo.
Palabras claves: Nicolai Hartmann, modalidades, ontología, realidad, sistema, pensamiento, teoría de posibilidad, método científico, experimentación, Diodoro Cronos, dogma, síndrome de Cotard, realismo modal, pensador, descubrimiento, verdad, verdad absoluto, rayos X, radiografía, lesión, Monsanto, ética profesional, metodología, rehabilitación, Wilhelm Röntgen, color, observación, observador, objeto, ambiente, pensamiento de sistema, pensamiento de problemas

Los ritos de pasaje son descritos ritualísticamente por los antropólogos. Lo que falta es un análisis sociológico. Con la dominación sexual tribal, los adolescentes frecuentemente no pueden impregnarse las chicas porque ellos tienen las mutilaciones de sus genitales. Los chicos tienen las mutilizaciones de sus genitales por las circuncisiones rituales. Brant proporciona algunos de los detalles y estadísticas involucrados en la reproducción de adolescentes y ejemplos de violencia sexual dirigida a adolescentes. Plantea la hipótesis de que los procesos de selección sexual, incluida la selección intersexual e intrasexual, son causas de violencia y dominación sexuales contra los adolescentes. Sin las habilidades para defender sus propios derechos, requieren que otros alcancen la libertad y escapen de la dominación.
2) Comó se conceptualizan las diferentes teorías de las modalidades
3) Cúal es la importancia de las modalidades
4) Por qué esto es significativo para las teorías de posibilidad, epistemología y los metodos de las ciencias.

Editorial Foreword (Discarded by publisher without reason)
In William A. Brant’s assessment, contributors to jurisprudence converse primarily among themselves, are part of an inbred, intellectual elite, have little understanding of the nations and peoples of the world, and are thus poorly positioned to improve their lot. With his work, Brant sets out to change this take on jurisprudence and its accomplishments. His aim is to reduce violence and augment fairness in the world through an understanding of legal systems and the ways in which they protect people from violence as well as how they promote and cause violence. Brant’s standing to break from the ways of traditional philosophers of law is secure, as he is able to make first-hand observations that we need but don’t get from most scholars of jurisprudence; this work unfolded as Brant lived in, and interacted with broad sectors of the citizenries of, the US, Colombia, Germany, Bulgaria, Mexico, China and several other nations. He sought views about the legal order ranging from those of the mainstream, law-abiding citizen to those who, for one reason or another, hold the law in low regard or have little if any respect for it.
Throughout the work, Brant offers multiple, innovative proposals, including an elevation of the importance of the sociological imagination over the autobiographical and biographical, and a call for a sociological analysis of comedy about the law to gauge audience responses to the varying forms the intended humor might take. Among the more intriguing of Brant’s ideas is his challenge to the legal system to test itself with an eye to identifying problems and implementing improvements. One test might involve the introduction of fictitious bills to the legislative branch. Another involves the use of undercover agents to observe and participate in crimes as they investigate law enforcement. In Brant’s words, “Like the undercover police officer who reveals herself at some point to some people, members of the party who pass the bogus bill could reveal the bill as one that was used to test whether support for the bill is likely to involve favoritism on part of members of the party who introduce it. It could test the legislative system’s process of lawmaking and introduce the flaw in the system thereafter. Lawmakers could be persuaded or required to promote and allow for fake bills to be presented intermittently to bolster support for them, despite their sketchy or maleficent content. Assessments of such cases could be valuable for understanding, improving, and preventing unfairness and injustices in the legislative branch of government.” Likewise, Brant envisions fictitious cases involving actors who test judges and juries on their abilities to make decisions with fairness and justice and adds a component to the testing to maximize its transparency and utility. Says Brant, “Moreover, the public broadcast of such investigative procedures and their results would be thoroughly informative if properly undertaken.”
Founded as Natural Law Studies by Virginia Black, the VIBS special series Studies in Jurisprudence publishes works in all areas of philosophy of law and maintains a special interest in the relationship between values and morality and the laws of nations and peoples. Beyond Legal Minds is a welcome and valuable addition to the investigations of this series.
