		Value judgements are values attached to subjective judgements which are made from of the perspective of self-centeredness or 'egoism'.
		Operative values are the value choices which are sensed as being advantageous to the organism in the process of development i.e.
		Operative values are value choices made by the human organism as a social organism with an inherent tendency for mature spiritual growth or 'self-actualisation'.

	"Six impossible things before breakfast": A multidimensional approach to measuring the value of libraries.
		One of the difficulties in attempting to measure the value of a library is the near impossibility of measuring its intellect ual output, because that is wholly dependent on the proportionate intellectual input of the library user.
		An essential prerequisite, therefore, is the capacity to demonstrate the value of the library both to the community and to the achievement of the strategic goals of the organisation and the mandated goals of the CEO and other senior officers external to the library.
		Value is a construct that is difficult to explicate and therefore difficu lt to measure.

	Dear Bert
		But if ‘valuable’ means ‘bearing reasons for being desired, fostered, or cherished’ it is implausible that ‘this is valuable’ is equivalent to ‘this is valued by’ or [valued] ‘by Xs’ (as subjectivists used to suggest), or even ‘with the Y valuational framework’.
		The valuers concerned might well actually have their reasons but, given this sense of ‘valuable’, the mere act of valuing on their part, however reasonable, would be insufficient to make the objects of valuation valuable.
		Gaus argues that impersonal value judgements point at an object or state of affairs that might be interesting to explore since it is deemed worthwhile (by relevant experts) in the community.

	Sheffield Hallam Working Papers: Value
		In valuing, the I is constituted as the self that judges and the self that reflects on the judgement and can account for its judgement: in other words, in order to understand itself in these terms, the self must in principle be able to think of itself as transcendent to the world and free.
		Ordinary value judgements, then, may not be value judgements at all, but by passing themselves off as such, they participate in the process by which this fact and its consequences are hidden from view.
		In Kant, aesthetic value judgements operate transcendentally in the following sense: they are part of the constitution of a subject that understands (indeed, feels) itself to be free to value (to allow a cause to be its motive) and is also capable of a deep reflection upon the conditions of this understanding and freedom.

	Discussions - Value Judgments (due Thu, Oct 4)
		As Lish stated these types of judgements are crucial in events such as elections where the voter does not have the chance to get to know the real candidate but instead is forced to judge them based on their appearance and the ideas that they choose to share with the public.
		Judgements are such an essential and constant part of our society that we never really question whether or not the judgements are good or bad.
		But not all judgements are right, like the lady in the movie, she was not right in her judgement of her "lunch date".

		What this amounts to is that the difference between the two kinds of judgement is not between judging objects to have a value or not to have a value; it is between identifying potentially valuable objects and determining what their value is.
		Put very simply: the value of the state of affairs (the object) is, for the perceiver, that which creates the pro or con response he finds himself making to that state of affairs or assumes that some other person or persons would make to that state of affairs.
		Value is intelligible only in terms of individuals' evaluations (pain/pleasure reactions) so, to say that it is in general a bad thing that there are sadists is to make a value judgement about society: more people would have better pain/pleasure balances if nobody deliberately hurt anybody else.

		The criticism is that the educational rationale is value-laden and judgemental, that it is an argument made by an educated elite approving of the leisure options they choose for themselves and that which their education has furnished for them.
		If aesthetic value is entirely a relative phenomenon then it is infeasible that there can be a programme of education into the appreciation of aesthetic value, whatever the artistic form may be.
		The last of the criteria of cultural value relates to the contribution of cultural and artistic activity to the public sphere defined by Habermas as 'a realm of social life in which something approaching public life is communicated'(quoted by Harvey:1997).

	The Language of Morals
		Judgements that I have a feeling of obligation to do X or Y are statements of empirical fact.
		But to say this is to say that if he professes to assent to the moral judgement, but does not assent to the imperative, he must have misunderstood the moral judgement (by taking it to be non-evaluative, though the speaker intended it to be evaluative).
		The moral judgement 'You ought not to smoke in this compartment' has to be made with some general moral principle in mind, and its purpose must be either to invoke that general principle or to point to an instance of its application.

	Frankfurt School: 3. The Concept of Dynamic Justice by Agnes Heller
		In its form, this judgement does not differ from judgements passed within the framework of static-formal justice, such as ‘Act X is unjust’, which is a shorthand formulation of an evaluative sentence deduced from a statement of fact (e.g.
		The two value conflicts discussed by MacIntyre (abortion and taxation) are undoubtedly conflicts between life and freedom (one interpretation of freedom as against life, one interpretation of life as against freedom).
		Thus the concept of ‘right’ (right judgement, right decision) implies the concept of ‘good’, and, as a consequence, the distinction between ‘right’ and ‘wrong’; (as well as between ‘correct’ and ‘incorrect’) includes discriminating between good and evil, even if the norm or rule to be applied ‘rightly’ has nothing whatever to do with morals.

	Sheffield Hallam Working Papers: Value
		About half the conference believed that 'cultural value' referred to the renewal of the question of the aesthetic in contemporary theory, while the other half assumed that what was at stake was precisely the competing political and ethical values of culture and cultures as such.
		But some texts stand in judgement on the reader, as distinct from that kind of valuing leading to 'revaluation', or 'new bearings', where the citadel of letters is levelled for each generation of students to rebuild again from scrupulously sifted and weighed stones.
		He presents aesthetic disinterestedness as an intense awareness of human values, as the recognition of responsibility as such, so that it sends us back into the world morally charged and tuned up, as it were, for action, although the aesthetic experience as such, of course, gives no immediately practical or didactic guidance.

		A normative judgement is prescriptive if to subscribe to it is to be committed, on pain of being accused of insincerity, to doing this action, or, if someone else is required to do it, to willing that he does it.
		Not every judgement which looks like a value judgement on the surface is one on closer examination, and often judgements which seem to be pure statements are in fact value judgements.

	CHAPTER XII
		In the case of value terms, the meaning in one’s value judgment is always one’s value criterion; the definition of a value term is yours, not others.
		Because the meaning of value term varies from one person to another, to understand a value expression depends to a great extent on one’s understanding of a speaker’s value criteria, of certain conventions in a community and so on, which one cannot grasp until a full inference is drawn.
		Since a judgement can be used either as a minor premise or conclusion depending on the context, to start an inference in the case of a value judgment, the first step is to determine what role the given value judgement plays in a syllogism.

	HMIC:A Value Judgement?:A Thematic Report on Best Value within The Police Service in Scotland 2000 : page 2 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
		As a result of the inspection process it was clear to HMIC that, in their first year, forces are making real efforts to address the requirements of the Best Value regime but are at different stages in the process.
		No one force can yet be identified as a 'Best Value organisation' but all are some way down the path in their attempts to achieve this.
		To avoid the burden of duplication and to manage the examination of the Best Value process within forces, HMIC is working with Audit Scotland on a joint approach to the audit/inspection of Best Value within the police service in Scotland.

		No judgement is made about the desireability of the consequences.
		No judgement as to whether the consequences (unemployment) are good or bad.
