Reconfiguring Coastal Access: Disability, Relational Participation, and Politic...

Coastal environments are increasingly positioned as sites of innovation through living labs and nature-based solutions. Yet disabled people remain largely excluded from these experimental practices, their participation constrained by technocratic design paradigms and normative assumptions about perception, mobility, and independence. Drawing on empirical research with visually impaired people in UK blue spaces,...

Integrating Co‐Creation and the Leave No One Behind (LNOB) Principle: A Framewo...

This article presents a conceptual framework that integrates the Leave No One Behind (LNOB) principle with co-creation practices in transformative sustainability research. While both LNOB and co-creation are central to international policy agendas, they are often applied separately, limiting their potential to address systemic inequities. To bridge this gap, we developed a framework based on a rapid evidence as...

Anchoring in Strong Currents: Strategies for Reflexivity to Enhance Inter- and ...

Marine research increasingly demands that early career researchers collaborate across disciplines, work with diverse communities including Indigenous peoples, and navigate social-ecological challenges characterised by ambiguity, uncertainty, and contested values. Yet the conceptual tools needed to do this well—chief among them reflexivity—are rarely taught in science training. This commentary argues that reflex...

The Immortality of the Soul in the First Half of Phaedo

In the Phaedo, Plato presents a dual conception of the soul’s fate “ one for the philosophers, whose purified souls ascend toward the Forms (80e-81a, 82c-84b, 114c-115a), and one for non-philosophers, whose impure souls remain trapped in the cycle of reincarnation. However, these two kinds of immortality are not necessarily mutually exclusive. Rather, they are part of a unified, gradual framework in which the s...

Callicles’ Critique & the Argumentative Structure of Plato’s Gorgias

In his great speech in Plato’s Gorgias, Callicles mounts a critique of Socrates’ earlier argument that doing injustice is worse than suffering it. The nature of this critique has not much preoccupied commentators, a neglect that this paper aims to remedy. A second aim of this paper is to address the issue of why Plato returns us, armed with Callicles’ critique, to an earlier argument. I argue that Plato sends u...

Critón 43b10-11: Πλημμελής: afinación y justicia

Para Platón la música era un elemento indispensable en el desarrollo de la persona. A partir de ello, es común hallar en su obra expresiones como desafinado, desordenado o desarmónico al referirse al alma humana. En Critón encuentro que la traducción del vocablo griego πλημμελής ha sido imprecisa a lo largo de la historia de la filosofía. Normalmente traducido como absurdo o desconcertante, esta palabra, de cor...

Second Alcibiades 148c-149c: Amun between Spartan euphemia and Egyptian silence

This study examines an implicit reference to Egyptian ethics in the Second Alcibiades, focusing on the mention of Amun, the Lord of the silent ones. The Egyptian “silent man” parallels the Platonic concept of euphemia, extending ritual silence into ethico-political conduct. While the dialogue contrasts euphemia and blasphemia through Spartan and Athenian behavior, Egyptian texts similarly oppose the “silent” to...

Justice, Koinonia and Unity: Phaedo, Republic and Parmenides

Thus far, scholarly research has paid little attention to the relationship between justice, koinonia and unity in Plato’s works. This is despite the fact that this relationship is already mentioned in Gorgias 507e6–508a3–even though the passage makes no reference to the theory of forms. In what follows, I will attempt to demonstrate how this relationship is established in the realm of forms. First, I examine th...
