Updates to Keith E Rice's www.integratedsociopsychology.net - psychological and sociological theory aligned and integrated, pratical applications and academic (A-Level) study. http://www.integratedsociopsychology.net/index.html keith@integratedsociopsychology.net © 2008 Keith E Rice My new Blog 'Just how many homosexuals are there really?' explores this issue from memetic perspectives and considers views as to the 'normality' of homosexuality. http://keitherice.wordpress.com/2009/10/08/pust-how-many-homosexuals-are-there-really/ 08 Oct 2009 21:44:07 GMT keith@integratedsociopsychology.net My latest Blog, ‘Munir Hussain and the wrong messages of Judge John Reddihough’ presents a sociopsychological perspective on how a respectable businessman carried out a brutal attack on a life-threatening intruder into his home. The Blog looks at the kinds of considerations the court should have made when considering an appropriate sentence and the kinds of erroneous messages the judge’s sentencing decision sends out to householders in the UK. http://keitherice.wordpress.com/ 16 Dec 2009 21:30:39 GMT keith@integratedsociopsychology.net The new Blog is stimulated by the Balanced Migration Group's call for upcoming General Election party manifestos to include a commitment to cap immigratiion to prevent the UK population reaching the 70 million-plus level projected for 2029. The blog considers the shifts in values which are at last enabling us to discuss the immigration issue in a rational manner. It also considers the opportunities a restriction on immigration would give us now multi-culturalism is declared 'dead'. http://keitherice.wordpress.com/ 07 Jan 2010 06:21:41 GMT keith@integratedsociopsychology.net My latest Blog explores the significance of Dr Muhammad Tahir-ul-Qadri's fatwa on terrorism of 2 March 2010 and what it means both for the relationship between Islam and terrorism and the West's relationship with Islam. It also asks why the West has largely ignored such a landmark fatwa. http://keitherice.wordpress.com/2010/04/12/why-is-the-west-ignoring-a-leading-moderate-muslim/ 12 Apr 2010 16:22:04 GMT keith@integratedsociopsychology.net A Spiralesque first look at the Tory-Lib Dem coalition which emerged from the chaotic results of the UK's 2010 general election. Is pragmatism winning out over ideological principle to hint at the possibilities of a 2nd Tier force in the new government...? http://integratedsociopsychology.wordpress.com/2010/05/14/liberal-conservatives-new-politics/ 14 May 2010 19:29:20 GMT keith@integratedsociopsychology.net ‘”Lost” in Purgatory?’ is the new Blog in www.integratedsociopsychology.net Inspired by the ‘spiritual’ endings to the ‘Ashes to Ashes’ and ‘Lost’ TV dramas, the Blog considers how religious/spiritual concepts can still be big business in the ‘scientific age’ and how they may actually be growing in popularity. Along the way the Blog considers some of the problems with the way the scientific establishment works and ponders gender differences in belief in the supernatural. ‘”Lost” in Purgatory?’ can be accessed directly from under Key Updates on the home page.
