{"title":"Margaret Archer (1943-2023) on Critical Realism and Morphogenesis: Linking Critical Realist Research Models from East and West","authors":"Christopher Adam-Bagley, Mahmoud Abubaker","doi":"10.21111/jocrise.v2i1.46","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.21111/jocrise.v2i1.46","url":null,"abstract":"Critical Realism (CR) is a philosophical approach to social science research, social action, and social change activism. It provides a framework for social scientists whose value commitments leads them to view the construction of social phenomenon in critical ways, which identify the often hidden oppressive elements in social structures. This understanding of a ‘new’ reality underlies the advocacy of change strategies, and the initiation of dialogue between members of disadvantaged and oppressed groups through the process of ‘morphogenesis’  This model of dialogues enabling change and the ‘unmasking of alienation’ stem from the work of Roy Bhaskar, and has been developed by Margaret Archer and other European scholars. An important feature of CR has been the application by the emergence of shared understanding, by social scientists from different value traditions (e.g. Christianity, Secular Humanism, and Islam). The JOCRISE in taking CR understandings of oppressive social forces into new fields, and with fresh CR models, is welcomed. In appraising the new model from JOCRISE, we offer both Cartesian dualism, and Popper’s World 3 model as elements of a new, dynamic focus on social change advocacy.","PeriodicalId":341846,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Critical Realism in Socio-Economics (JOCRISE)","volume":"37 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139313364","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

WM offers a holistic framework that assesses diverse dimensions of public welfare, with a primary focus on the elements of Perception, Participation, and Acceptance (PPA). We have collected data, including respondent identification, PPA evaluation scores, and community input, which are presented in visual formats such as graphs and diagrams. This study aims to explore residents' satisfaction levels regarding various government services and assess the significance of the Perception, Participation, and Acceptance (PPA) variables in shaping overall societal well-being, referred to as the \"Index of Public Well-being\". It addresses crucial research inquiries, bridges existing research gaps, and also solicits community feedback in the form of suggestions, recommendations, and critiques to pinpoint areas ripe for improvement. The collected data will be leveraged to construct a Public Satisfaction Index, facilitating comparisons and discussions across diverse population segments. The data will undergo specific modes of analysis The data scores reveal a final score of 7.26 out of 9.0, indicating a highly positive interpretation. A total of 21 evaluation points were considered, all of which fall within the significant range. However, it's noteworthy that approximately 8% of respondents provided lower scores (ranging from 1 to 4), warranting further investigation. Additionally, this research endeavours to formulate a sustainability plan to ensure the continuous enhancement of community well-being. Through rigorous data analysis and widespread dissemination, this study contributes to a deeper understanding of public sentiment and the effectiveness of local government services, ultimately fostering improvements in governance and public welfare.","PeriodicalId":341846,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Critical Realism in Socio-Economics (JOCRISE)","volume":"2 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139313595","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

His message of anti-racism along with the exposing of government corruption are just part of the impact he made on the American people. While these are the more noble and respectable of his works, there exist other areas in which Dr. King erred in his judgement. The topic to which this paper will be devoted to will be the erroneous beliefs that Dr. King advocated regarding the failures of capitalism and the push for a more democratic socialist type of economic system. It is important that readers of this work not subject themselves to the fallacy of argumentum ad verecundium — the mistake of assuming that because Dr. King was an expert in one area (civil rights), he is therefore an expert in another (economics).","PeriodicalId":341846,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Critical Realism in Socio-Economics (JOCRISE)","volume":"18 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139313511","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The great civilization unexceptionally has excellent environmental health issues as physical and mental care is fundamental to human development. In the peak period of the Ottoman Empire, public healthcare was significantly implemented by the waqf fund as an alternative to hospital financial support. Sulaymaniye complex was an example that consists of two mausoleums, two specialist schools (one of which is for the study of medicine and the other for the study of hadith), a Quranic school for children, a hospital, a hostel, a public kitchen, a public bath, an inn, and few rows of small shops. This medical school was also the introductory formal teaching workspace in the Ottoman era. However, heretofore no in-depth descriptive report on the Ottoman waqf management in the health sector is found. In fact, along with Islamic history, the government, and people both honored a collective role in the development of each appropriate instrument of waqf. This study attempts to analyze systematically the role of waqf in public healthcare facilities during the Ottoman Empire. Detailed data from books, articles, research reports, and archives were captured to support this library study.","PeriodicalId":341846,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Critical Realism in Socio-Economics (JOCRISE)","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132000184","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
