His approach to conflict included a belief that means cannot be separated from ends (good goals do not justify bad methods), a belief in the unity of all life, and a willingness to suffer for one's beliefs.
He criticises Sharp's approach of civilian-based defence for being based on a faulty strategic theory (the indirect approach of Liddell Hart, subject of a critique earlier in the book), for relying on a conception of society oriented to elites, and for failing to focus on satisfying human needs.
Robert's approach is principled and revolutionary, and perhaps his sort of principled nonviolence is inevitably revolutionary.

That is to say, I believe that the principled approach may be applied to reconsider the reliability and necessity of the class of statements that are included in a categorical exception to the rule against hearsay.
In adopting the principled approach to hearsay evidence not falling within an established exception, we have chosen this course in the name of the search for truth and because of confidence that juries will be able to accurately weigh the quality of the evidence before them.
I appreciate that under the approach proposed by Iacobucci J., the exceptions are supposed to continue to serve a useful role as, inter alia, "practical manifestations of the principled approach in concrete and meaningful form" (para.

The research showed that the ability to implement a more principled approach was highly dependent on context, both the political and military context and the nature of the humanitarian system in each country.
However, a principled approach has profound implications for the way an organisation works and explicit conceptual and organisational links need to be made between principles and practice.
Principles need to be managed into effect at all levels in an organisation just like any other change in organisational policy priorities; they need to be endorsed by senior management, and strategies developed for their implementation.

 A SURVEY OF POST-METHOD IN EFL
It is the knowledge and principles which makes it possible for teachers as "technicians" in the classroom, to diagnose the needs of learners, to treat learners with successful teaching techniques, and to assess the outcome of those treatments.
An approach to language teaching is not just a number of principles "set in stone." Rather, it is a dynamic "composite of energies" within a teacher that changes with continued experience in learning and teaching (Brown, 2002, p.11).
That is, one can think of more principles including learning style and strategies on the one hand; and on the other, one can, for instance, see how communicative competence as a principle has priority over the other mentioned principles in adopting innovative teaching practice in our classrooms.

 A Principled Economics Approach To Poverty - Essays Toward A Principled Economics - Mose Durst
If Principled Economics seeks to shape and promote the virtuous person and the virtuous society, then giving individuals the opportunities to exhibit their virtues -- hard work, productivity, diligence, prudence, temperance and others -- through ownership of their own enterprises is a high order of virtue.
Principled Economics further emphasizes how economic activity affects not isolated individuals, but rather the individual in the context of work environment, family, community, and the larger social and physical world.
The challenge of a Principled Economics is to focus on the human element of economics, with a value perspective, and then to identify and to promote concrete models that have been successful.

 Principled Technology Development, Now!   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
This article outlines a principled approach to technology development, based on aspects of human nature and aspects of technologies themselves.
It is proposed that by using the approach outlined and explicated, knowledge workers and learning organizations can develop well founded and effective technology plans that avoid market driven hype one the one hand, and stasis on the other.
The way to proceed with technology development in light of this principle is to account for what a given piece of technology represents in terms of transfer-of-function, and to then account for how this changes or enables shifts in our understanding and/or enactment of our own functions.

The fifth principle, openness, is sometimes regarded as a subset of accountability but the Panel believes that it is sufficiently significant in the context of municipal governance to merit separate consideration as a guiding principle.
The Panel concluded that the identified principles adequately reflect the current thinking and perspectives on this subject and provide a structured and objective frame of reference to evaluate the input received on the proposed changes to the Act.
The Panel concluded that the identified principles should be used in a comprehensive and integrated manner to assess the input received and to formulate responses to the recommendations in order to best ensure the development of effective outcomes.

While there are key instructional research principles that are universal such as the information on how the brain works or types of environments that are most conductive to learning, there also exists opportunity to provide diverse settings within those environments.

 Briefing - Principled Choices - July 27, 2004
Feeney began using principles cards when he was the Speaker of the Florida House of Representatives, and the idea has now begun to catch on in Washington, D.C. The Republican Study Committee recently released a Conservative Check Card based on Feeney's Florida cards.
Principled politicians cannot, however, take a position on abortion such as the one held by John Kerry, Feeney said.
Even with a principled approach to legislation, deciding which position to take on an issue can be difficult; however, with a firm set of principles clearly outlined, conservative politicians can remind themselves what they believe in and avoid the pitfall of playing politics instead of pursuing principled legislation.

 Who is the Final Arbiter of Constitutionality in Europe? - IV) The Principled Approach: Liberal Legal Pluralism
The FCC's approach can be understood as employing the familiar conception of the sovereign nation state in as a conceptual shell marshaled in defense of `basic rights' and `democratic self-determination' against unwarranted intrusion by acts of European legislation.
Therefore the principle of the expansion the Rule of Law to the European level is part of the law of the land in Germany.
This principle is realized to a higher degree, if the Member States courts do not have the requisite jurisdiction to subject EC law to constitutional scrutiny.

Policies and laws based on unsound principles will always in the long term be detrimental in their effect, and this will of course be manifest in the nature of the symptoms.
I am of the firm belief that if we understand principles we will not go far astray in what we support and, as principles are universal, we will also be better armed to know the rights and wrongs on other related issues.
So let's look at some principles which I believe are fundamental to our liberties, both now and in the future, and thus to our continued happiness.

The principled basis of the hearsay rule, and its exceptions, was thus understood by commentators on the common law of evidence early in this century.
In that case, with no discussion of the principled approach, we stated: "An admission against interest made by the accused is admissible as a recognized exception to the hearsay rule, provided that its probative value outweighs its prejudicial effect."
Reliability under the principled approach is similarly restricted to a threshold inquiry: B.

 Report of a Review Seminar in Stockholm
Participants debated whether the same principles applied to all actors in a conflict situation and reviewed ways in which respect for humanitarian norms could be secured particularly in situations where warfare was designed to harm civilians.
Old humanitarian principles and practices are being taken advantage of and are confounded by relatively new phenomena: the blatant violations of international humanitarian law, the direct targeting of noncombatants and relief personnel, and the incorporation of humanitarian resources into war economies and strategies.
The Aggressive Solidarity approach mirrors the RDD Approach toward capacity-building, but is highly critical of its loose structure, which defies coordination and a commitment to a single over-arching objective such as protecting human rights.

 Review of Robert Burrowes, The Strategy of Nonviolent Defense
Essay review of Robert J. Burrowes, The Strategy of Nonviolence Defense: A Gandhian Approach (Albany, NY: State University of New York Press, 1996).
They justify nonviolence on the basis of its consequences--the pragmatic approach--and they see nonviolent defence primarily as a way to defend society as it exists--the reformist approach.
His argument seems to be that the pragmatic approach is less effective than the Gandhian approach, for example when he says that "recent psychological studies indicate that Gandhi's conception of nonviolence is likely, from the opponent's perspective, to generate the minimum degree of psychological resistance and to increase the rationality of seeking creative outcomes" (p.

Underpinning all of the principles is the understanding that any development would undergo rigorous review, including meaningful intervener funding to ensure that northerners can fully participate.
The principles are being forwarded to the federal government, both territorial governments, Aboriginal governments, and potential producers and developers.

To give an example, question 2 is based on the principle that prior knowledge as the basis for building new knowledge can facilitate, interfere with, or distort the integration of incoming information.
This principle is justified by many researchers, including the work of J.J. Clement and J. Minstrell, which is referenced in the footnote on that question above.
This “scaffolding” is removed as students move through the course so that they internalize this way of organizing an approach to problem-solving (question 3).

Allowing for measurement error - a principled approach to peak bagging
RECENT DEBATE on the latest revision of Munro's Tables has overshadowed the fact that past revisions have tended to be driven by resurveying rather than by subjective judgment on what is deserving of being designated a Munro or Munro Top.
If your objective is to climb Munros, or Corbetts, or some other named list, then fine; but if it is to climb all Scottish 3000ft hills, all English 2000s, or whatever, then a "probabilistic" approach will give a much greater degree of confidence of achieving your aim.

When, however, you begin with principle, and stay with principle, you don’t find yourself in such situations.
When you affirm that the refusal to discipline heretics makes you no longer a church, then the three-thousandth time that refusal is made doesn’t make any difference.
The proper way to phrase it is: "Will staying an X make it difficult for me to become more like Jesus?" This leads us to look critically at a much broader range of values for X—urbanite, government school teacher, metrosexual, social worker, Episcopalian, cynic.

 SSRN-From Harm to Robustness: A Principled Approach to Vice Regulation by James Leitzel
John Stuart Mill's harm principle maintains that adult behavior cannot justifiably be subject to social coercion unless the behavior involves harm or a significant risk of harm to non-consenting others.
It is therefore with respect to vice policy that the harm principle tends to be most constraining, and some current vice controls, including prohibitions on prostitution and drug possession, violate Mill's precept.
The harm and robustness principles cohere in many ways, but the robustness principle offers more scope for policies that try to direct people for their own good, without opening the door to tyrannical inroads upon self-regarding behavior.

I believe that this framework directly contradicts the underlying essence of the principled approach and the thrust of hearsay reform in the common law world over the last thirty years.
In Khan, although McLachlin J. (as she then was) spoke in terms of the complainant not having a reason to lie, in essence, the recognition there was that children of such a tender age do not have a reason to lie about sexual subjects.
Finally, the traditional exceptions may be modified or supplemented as appropriate to conform to the principled approach (on this last point, see Rosenberg, "B.(K.G.) - Necessity and Reliability: The New Pigeon-Holes", supra, at p.

Where hearings are held, any person summonsed to appear is entitled to legal representation, and to be informed of the general scope and purpose of the hearing, unless this would seriously jeopardise the investigation.
In this respect it has been become obvious that the impact of electronic surveillance is considerable, and that the public cross-examination of an officer, who is caught on audio or videotape and who maintains a claim of innocence when first questioned, attracts great attention.
Whichever approach is taken, there needs to be some understanding, or protocol, as to whether an encouraged retirement (which might be viewed in other circumstances as a constructive dismissal) should attract retirement benefits.

 A Principled Approach to the Design and Production of Computer-based Multimedia Learning Materials.   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
Interactive documents can be modified or enhanced either by improving the marked up document and its 'assets', or by changing the functionality which is added by the interpreter.
A consequence of this approach of separating content from functionality is that the development process can proceed along parallel streams, with for example those developing assets working separately from those preparing the marked up text and from those designing the presentation and interaction schemes.
The end-products are interactive documents which may have the simple interactivity of 'electronic books' or the more complex interactivity equivalent to multimedia computer-based learning material.
