  PhilSci Archive - Why diachronically emergent properties must also be salient
Why diachronically emergent properties must also be salient
In this paper, I criticize Bedau's definition of `diachronically emergent properties' (DEPs), which says that a property is a DEP if it can only be predicted by a simulation (simulation requirement) and is nominally emergent.
I argue at length that this definition is not complete because it fails to eliminate trivial cases.

Religion – Pastors and parishioners meet online to write blogs, share pictures, and stay connected throughout the week in an effort to extend church between Sundays.

  Structuralism -- Facts, Info, and Encyclopedia article   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
Although Saussure was, like his contemporaries, interested in (The study of linguistic change) historical linguistics, in the Course he developed a more general theory of (additional info and facts about semiology) semiology.
This approach focused on examining how the elements of language related to each other in the present ('synchronically' rather than 'diachronically').
He thus focused not on the use of language (parole, or talk) but the underlying system of language (langue) of which any particular utterance was an expression.

 Narratology as a cognitive science by David Herman
The authors focus on how popluation-level phenomena influence individual cognitive processes both diachronically and synchronically, with superindividual phenomena both shaping the ontogenetic and phylogenetic development of cognitive capacities over time and providing them with specific inputs at any given time.
The essay subdivides research in this area into three main categories: cognition in a comparative and evolutionary perspective; culture in an evolutionary and cognitive perspective; and cognition in an ecological, social, and cultural perspective.
From a diachronic perspective, humans and other animals can be viewed as genetically equipped to "instigate exploratory activity that culminates in learning what [their] environment affords for [them]" (6).

By understanding the processes which have affected our biological history over the millennia, we can perhaps devise strategies for coping with disease in the future.
Only through the science of paleopathology are we able to view these processes diachronically and to determine the course of their evolution.
Leprosy research is a prime example of this.
