DOMINICANO, UNETE A LA LUCHA

  

IMPORTANTE - UNION:

Usuarios de Telefonía Celular de República Dominicana con ORANGE, VIVA, TRICOM 
y CLARO, dejemos de darles de comer por un tiempo, sin trabajo y que se den 
cuenta de que si esto sigue así, nosotros somos los importantes. Pon tu granito 
de arena y lo conseguiremos.

LAS EMPRESAS DE TELEFONÍA CELULAR ESTÁN ABUSANDO Y NOS ESTÁN ROBANDO.
!!!POR FAVOR PRESTA ATENCIÓN A LA EXPLICACIÓN.

En USA una compañía de celulares ofrece a sus clientes 2,000 minutos libres 
(SI, DOS MIL, LEISTE BIEN) por solo US$ 52.20 (@ US$0.026 el min).

¿¿¿Quién gasta 2,000 minutos en un mes??? Usuarios comunes, seguro que no.

Si alguien gastara 2,000 minutos en nuestro país seguro pagaría alrededor de 
6,000.00 a 7,000.00 pesos dominicanos, lo cual es muy superior a los U$S 52.20 
(RD$1,900.00) que se pagan en USA (@ RD$0.94 el minuto).

¿¿¿CÓMO LLEGARON LOS NORTEAMERICANOS A ESTE BENEFICIO??? Mediante la UNIDAD. 
Sí, la unidad de la comunidad; sin hacer huelgas, ni rompiendo, ni quemando 
llantas, ni matando a nadie. Solo de una manera:

NO USANDO EL TELÉFONO durante varios días, las empresas se vieron obligadas a 
BAJAR LAS TARIFAS O QUEBRAR.

PONGÁMONOS LAS PILAS NOSOTROS PARA DEFENDERNOS...

*Datos: En 1999 en Argentina los ciudadanos obligaron a TELECOM y MOVISTAR a 
poner una tarifa reducida a INTERNET por medio de DESCOLGAR los teléfonos 
durante 15 minutos.

En USA actualmente lograron que las compañías proveedoras de Internet 
absorbieran el costo de las llamadas, como comunicarse a un 0800 en vez de a un 
0610.*

¿¿¿Por qué nosotros no lo intentamos con los servicios de celulares

Un paro de los usuarios no les hará quebrar, pero si las obligará a pensar en 
bajar de precio los servicios que prestan.

*LA PROPUESTA**:

**Si estás de acuerdo, envía este e-mail a todos aquellos que conozca para que 
los días 28, 29 y 30 de NOVIEMBRE DEL PRESENTE 2009todos tengamos el celular 
apagado. Y si lo necesitan por cualquier razón, eviten las llamadas que puedan.

Usuarios y clientes convocamos a un paro nacional por 72 horas.

Porque somos los que mantienen el sistema, apagamos los Teléfonos celulares los 
días de fin de mes de NOVIEMBRE.

ES LA ÚNICA FORMA EN QUE PODREMOS EXPLICARLES A: CLARO, TRICOM. VIVA y ORANGE, 
QUE NO SOMOS IGNORANTES NI VAMOS A SEGUIR PERMITIÉNDOLES QUE NOS METAN LA MANO 
EN EL BOLSILLO. ENTRE TODOS LOS OBLIGAREMOS A QUE BAJEN LAS TARIFAS, Y MEJOREN 
EL SERVICIO QUE ES TAN PESIMO.

SI NO NOS DEFENDEMOS NOSOTROS, NADIE MÁS LO VA A HACER. YA LO HEMOS VISTO! 


APAGUEN SUS CELULARES EL MAYOR TIEMPO POSIBLE LOS DÍAS 28, 29 Y 30 DE noviembre 
DEL PRESENTE AÑO.

¡¡¡FECHA HISTORICA!!!

Reenvialo por favor si estás de acuerdo.

This work gives a lot of information on many of the other Soviet
'psychologists' as well as Vygotsky. It's the best profile of Elkonen
I've ever found, albeit very short.

Interesting excerpt:

In the 1920s, Soviet psychologists quickly destroyed the traditional, 
subjective-empirical psychology which prevailed in Russian science before the 
Revolution. And the same years saw impatient attempts to replace it with a 
new Marxist, materialist and objective psychology. Moreover, psychologists 
were strongly influenced by Pavlov’s physiology of higher neural activity, 
which was seen as a model of scientific objectivity and materialism. Its 
successes were enough to impress any scientist in the early 1920s. Soviet 
psychologists in those years were also greatly influenced by the idea of 
explaining psychological processes in straightforward sociological terms. 
Considering that the Soviet humanities had not yet interpreted and 
assimilated Marxist philosophy with sufficient depth, these ideas were often 
regarded as authentically “Marxist.” Finally, of the psychological schools 
proper, the greatest influence on Soviet psychology was exerted by 
behaviourism, which was attractive because it was seen as an objective, 
materialistic trend.
The influence of these and a series of other circumstances produced a
very complex picture in psychology. Some defined psychology as “the
science of behaviour” (Borovsky, Blonsky), others as “the science of
reflexes” (Bekhterev), others thought that psychology was “the science
of reactions” (Kornilov), and still others described it as a science
“of the systems of social reflexes” (Raisner). Despite the differences
in these formulations their general thrust was undoubtedly directed
against the notion of psychology as “the science of the soul.” Making
psychology objective was the goal of all the trends. To achieve this
aim, psychologists were prepared to forego the study of any subjective
elements in the human psyche. The psyche was reduced either to a
system of behavioural reactions or to a combination of conditional
reflexes or a set of what a modern scholar would describe as “social
positions” or “social roles.”
LEV VYGOTSKY. THE MOZART OF PSYCHOLOGY 37
What did that mean in relation to the problems of consciousness? Many
prominent Soviet psychologists (Blonsky and Borovsky) practically
ignored this problem. They believed it was beyond the scope of
scientific psychology, as it was incapable of being studied by
objective methods. Another group of psychologists headed by Kornilov,
on the contrary, considered consciousness to be the key object of
psychology. And some few psychologists led by Chelpanov still adhered
to the traditional psychology of consciousness.
It would seem that the above three positions exhaust every possible
attitude to the problem of consciousness, but Vygotsky challenged all
of them at once. He broke through the presuppositions to which the
Soviet psychologists of those years had confined themselves without
being aware of it. This arose from a premise which was tacitly and
unconsciously accepted by all: consciousness can only be studied as it
was studied by subjective empirical psychology. Vygotsky managed to
escape this trap because he approached the problem of consciousness
not from a psychological but from a methodological angle. To get a
genuine opportunity to study the essence – genesis, structure,
determinants – of consciousness, he argued, one must adopt a
methodological position whereby consciousness becomes the object of
study per se. That, in turn, makes it necessary to work out a more
general principle of explanation. One must look for a layer of reality
of which consciousness is itself the function. If consciousness could
serve as a principle of explanation – and that was precisely the case
in traditional psychology, which described consciousness as “the
common master of psychic functions,” “the stage on which the psyche
unfolds” – any study of its essence would be automatically impossible,
and only a description of the individual phenomena pertaining to it
would be possible.
To give consciousness a different methodological status (I am
deliberately using the terms of the 1960s and 1970s because this
modernisation helps express Vygotsky’s idea for which there was no
adequate terminology in his time) one had to identify the layer of
reality that determined it. And Vygotsky accomplished that by
representing consciousness as an element in the structure of man’s
labour activity.
The idea that consciousness is determined by labour activity led
Vygotsky to the idea of the “psychological tools” created artificially
by mankind which represented an element of culture. Initially they
were directed “outward,” toward the partner, but then they turned
“inward upon oneself” to become the

And more on the physiologists--Vvedensky, Bekhterev and Pavlov,
including excerpts from Vygotsky's take on them (which brings me to
the conclusion that Vygotsky actually agrees some with Husserl on the
'crisis'). I think Pavlov had the largest impact on American
behaviourists (and remember it was the Americans who helped to get the
Russians going on behaviourism in the first place) probably because of
a couple very good translations and the 'generalizability' of his
methods to experimentation in the US. Bekhterev appears to be the more
expansive thinker. I don't know much about Vvedensky at all.

V, B and P were all physiologists first, but Vygotsky was a 'semiotician'.

Product Description
Vladimir Mikhailovitch Bekhterev was a pioneering Russian neurologist,
psychiatrist, and psychologist. A highly esteemed rival of Ivan
Pavlov, his achievements in the areas of personality, clinical
psychology, and political and social psychology were recognized and
acclaimed throughout the world. Publication of the complete text of
Collective Reflexology brings to the English-speaking world this
brilliant scientist's final theoretical statements on how
reflexological principles, which he had been developing over a quarter
century, can be extended far beyond analysis of the individual
personality.

Bekhterev's work grows out of his interest in group psychology and
suggestion. This concept of the reflex is much broader than Pavlov's.
It is applicable to every variety of life. Bekhterev compared his own
analyses to those of other European thinkers such as Comte, LeBon, and
Sorokin. Such analyses strained against the official Marxist-Leninist
doctrines of the era. Bekhterev died in 1927, allegedly of poisoning
by Stalin's henchman. As with many scientists during the Soviet era,
his legacy was suppressed. In the normal course of events his name
would have been as well known as that of Freud, Pavlov or, more
lately, B.F. Skinner. This first publication of Bekhterev's great work
in English fills a void in the fields of psychology, sociology, and
the history of science.


About the Author
V.M. Bekhterev was director of the Military Medical Academy in St.
Petersburg and founded there its Psychoneurological Institute. Among
his many books are Suggestion: Its Role in Social Life (available from
Transaction) and The Subject Matter and Goals of Social Psychology.
Lloyd H. Strickland is professor of psychology at Carleton University.
He is the author of numerous journal articles and editor of Directions
in Soviet Social Psychology and Soviet and Western Perspectives in
Social Psychology.

It is this feeling of a system, the sense of a [common] style, the understanding
that each particular statement is linked with and dependent upon the
central idea
of the whole system of which it forms a part, which is absent in the essentially
eclectic attempts at combining the parts of two or more systems that are hetero-
geneous and diverse in scientific origin and composition. Such are,
for instance,
the synthesis of behaviorism and Freudian theory in the American
literature; Freu-
dian theory without Freud in the systems of Adler and Jung; the
reflexological Freu-
dian theory of Bekhterev and Zalkind; finally, the attempts to combine Freudian
theory and Marxism (Luria, 1925; Fridman, 1925). So many examples from the area
of the problem of the subconscious alone! In all these attempts the tail of one
system is taken and placed against the head of another and the space between
them is filled with the trunk of a third. It isn’t that they are
incorrect, these mon-
strous combinations, they are correct to the last decimal point, but
the question
they wish to answer is stated incorrectly. We can multiply the number
of citizens
of Paraguay with the number of kilometers from the earth to the sun and divide
the product by the average life span of the elephant and carry out the whole op-
eration irreproachably, without a mistake in any number, and
nevertheless the final
outcome might mislead someone who is interested in the national income of this
country. What the eclectics do, is to reply to a question raised by
Marxist philosophy
with an answer prompted by Freudian metapsychology.
In order to show the methodological illegitimacy of such attempts, we will first
dwell upon three types of combining incompatible questions and answers, without
2 thinking for one moment that these three types exhaust the variety
of such attempts.

If you will recall--I think JF was referring to previous threads as
well--that we were discussing some of this under the 'Vienna Circle'
threads (which I cite in this post -- scroll down). All this puts me
to mind of Wittgenstein's interest in psychology, which was not simply
a late development in his thinking. First, he was exposed to much this
as part of an educational reform movement in Austria between the wars.
Also he had an expressed but critical interest in Gestalt psychology
(which you could put simplistically as a psychological spin-off the
same lines of inquiry and research that led to the 'Husserlian turn'
in philosophy).

Now I really must learn more about Stumpf's output in phonetics. I
hadn't known about this until this week, which does go to show that
although we seem to go around and around here on M-T, going around and
around can led to a different direction out.

Phenomenological factors in Vygotsky’s mature psychology
Paul S. Macdonald

Murdoch University, Western Australia, pmcdo...@central.murdoch.edu.au

This article examines some of the phenomenological features in Lev
Vygotsky’s mature psychological theory, especially in Thinking and
Speech and The Current Crisis in Psychology. It traces the complex
literary and philosophical influences in 1920s Moscow on Vygotsky’s
thought, through Gustav Shpet’s seminars on Husserl and the inner form
of the word, Chelpanov’s seminars on phenomenology, Bakhtin’s theory
of the production of inner speech, and the theoretical insights of the
early Gestalt psychologists. It begins with an exposition of two
central Husserlian schemas: part-whole theory and the thesis of the
naïve standpoint, both of which Vygotsky was clearly familiar with.
This is followed by an account of the reception of phenomenology in
early Soviet Russia. The article’s central sections are concerned with
a careful unpacking and critique of Vygotsky’s employment of
Husserlian method and analysis in his later doctrine of the ‘inner
plane of speech’, his use of part-whole theory, and his identification
of Husserl’s position with an untenable version of idealism. The
article closes with the contention that Vygotsky misrepresents the
phenomenological analysis of meaning formation and appropriates basic
Husserlian conceptual terms in his elaboration of the ‘inner form of
the word’; but Vygotsky does so in such a way that he enriches our
descriptive access to the individual development of humans’ dynamic
use of language.

small excerpt �61. Psychology in the tension between the
(objectivistic-philosophical) idea of science and empirical procedure:
the incompatibility of the two directions of psychological inquiry
(the psychophysical and that of psychology based on inner
experience).

ALL SCIENTIFIC empirical inquiry has its original legitimacy and also
its dignity. But considered by itself, not all such inquiry is science
in that most original and indispensable sense whose first name was
philosophy, and thus also in the sense of the new establishment of a
philosophy or science since the Renaissance. Not all scientific
empirical inquiry grew up as a partial function within such a science.
Yet only when it does justice to this sense can it truly be called
scientific. But we can speak of science as such only where, within the
indestructible whole of universal philosophy, a branch of the
universal task causes a particular science, unitary in itself, to grow
up, in whose particular task, as a branch, the universal task works
itself out in an originally vital grounding of the system. Not every
empirical inquiry that can be pursued freely by itself is in this
sense already a science, no matter how much practical utility it may
have, no matter how much confirmed, methodical technique may reign in
it. Now this applies to psychology insofar as, historically, in the
constant drive to fulfil its determination as a philosophical, i.e., a
genuine, science, it remains entangled in obscurities about its
legitimate sense, finally succumbs to temptations to develop a
rigorously methodical psychophysical - or better, a psychophysicist's
empirical inquiry, and then thinks that it has fulfilled its sense as
a science because of the confirmed reliability of its methods. By
contrast to the specialists' psychology of the present, our concern -
the philosopher's concern - is to move this sense as a science to
the central point of interest - especially in relation to psychology
as the place of decisions for a proper development of a philosophy
in general - and to clarify its whole motivation and scope. In this
direction of the original aim
