  • Ethological Methods for Observing Small Group Political Decision Making

  • James N. Schubert
  • Published online by Cambridge University Press: 17 May 2016, pp. 3-19

  • Students of biopolitics and others are concerned with the relevance and contribution of this emergent subfield to the traditional or “normal” problems of more established areas in the discipline of political science (Hines, 1982; Blank, 1982). My article addresses this issue by illustrating how ethological methods of inquiry can be applied in research on collective political decision making in small groups. (Watts, 1981). Rather than presenting a final methodology and set of findings fait accompli, my primary purpose is heuristic and developmental-that is, to contribute to critical discussion, awareness, and application of alternative field research methods in political science.

  • New Biotechnology: Potential Problems Likely Promises1

  • Raymond A. Zilinskas
  • Published online by Cambridge University Press: 17 May 2016, pp. 42-52

  • Janus-like, biotechnology, like other high technologies, presents two sides to society. On the one hand, a benign, even benevolent countenance holds forth the promise of virtually unlimited possibilities for doing good. Yet, if proper care is not taken, this same technology can present a specter of chthonic forces, difficult to contain.
