The key value I have to offer is end-to-end integration of information gathering, analyzing systems and requirements, and producing written output in an appropriate format to meet the organization’s needs.

At first glance, a systematic examination of Either/Or apparently yields a clear analysis of its structure. The project is straightforward. There are two words in the title. There are two volumes, each with its principal speaker. In the course of the work a speaker for the ethical perspective follows an aesthetic speaker and comments critically on him and his ideas. As a judge, he clearly has the requisite temporal authority and moral ascendancy to do so. Moreover the judge appeals to (...) eternal authority, embodied in a sermon, as additional support for his position. (shrink)

There are intriguing congruities between Kierkegaard and some recent tendencies in feminism and post-modern thought.1 Neither Kierkegaard, feminists, nor post-modernism are systematic (that's one congruity right there!), so the common points can't be neatly tabulated. But (again typically of all the parties concerned) they tend to lie in three areas: methodology, communicative strategy, and the rejection of procrustean metaphysics. In what follows I will try to assemble some fragments which point out these congruities.

Kierkegaard has consistently been a key figure in discussions of the relation between Christian and secular worldviews. The particular question of the Christian worldview is one of the central facets of his "project," which already presupposes the existence (in Denmark!) of two different ways of seeing the world, "Christianity" and "Christendom.".
