They recognized that slavery was a moral issue and not merely an economic interest, and that to recognize it explicitly in their Constitution would be in explosive contradiction to the concept of sovereignty they had set forth in the Declaration of 1776 that `` all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among them are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

Extending the logic of these measures, Green adumbrated a positive and collectivist definition of liberty, a concept of " public freedom " that justified legislative oversight of economic life, especially land ownership and use.

While many socialist currents advocated economic planning as an eventual substitute for the market for factors of production, some define economic planning as being based on worker-self management, with production being carried out to directly satisfy human needs, and contrast this with the concept of a command economy of the Soviet Union, which they characterize as being based on a top-down bureaucratic administration of the economy in a similar fashion to a capitalist firm.

" Mussolini claimed that dynamic or heroic capitalism and the bourgeoisie could be prevented from degenerating into static capitalism and then supercapitalism if the concept of economic individualism were abandoned and if state supervision of the economy was introduced.

He was notable for developing the important economic concept of opportunity cost, and for penning the influential Parable of the Broken Window.

Presently the concept is most often associated with Marxian economics, although it appears as a foundation to earlier classical economic theorists such as Adam Smith and David Ricardo.

The game is named after the economic concept of monopoly, the domination of a market by a single entity.

A comedic " precursor " to this concept occurred in an episode of Monty Python's Flying Circus, in which Terry Jones began performing a striptease while giving a fast-paced rundown of economic news.

Political and economic relations were drastically influenced by these theories as the concept of the guild was subordinated to the theory of free trade, and Roman Catholic dominance of theology was increasingly challenged by Protestant churches subordinate to each nation-state, which also ( in a fashion the Roman Catholic Church often decried angrily ) preached in the vulgar or native language of each region.

Christian socialism is a broad concept involving an intertwining of the Christian religion with the politics and economic theories of socialism.

This is related to the economic concept of economies of scale.

Social security is a concept enshrined in Article 22 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights which states that Everyone, as a member of society, has the right to social security and is entitled to realization, through national effort and international co-operation and in accordance with the organization and resources of each State, of the economic, social and cultural rights indispensable for his dignity and the free development of his personality.

In the study of supply chain management, the concept of centroids has become an important economic consideration.

The concept of sustainable development has in the past most often been broken out into three constituent parts: environmental sustainability, economic sustainability and sociopolitical sustainability.

The Universal Declaration on Cultural Diversity ( UNESCO, 2001 ) further elaborates the concept by stating that "... cultural diversity is as necessary for humankind as biodiversity is for nature ”; it becomes “ one of the roots of development understood not simply in terms of economic growth, but also as a means to achieve a more satisfactory intellectual, emotional, moral and spiritual existence ".

Some consider that naming the concept " Kolmogorov complexity " is an example of the Matthew effect.

Definitions of complexity often depend on the concept of a " system "— a set of parts or elements that have relationships among them differentiated from relationships with other elements outside the relational regime.

They derive this concept from the observation that people seek richness, complexity, and depth within a virtual world.

Evolutionism refers to the biological concept of evolution, specifically to a widely held 19th century belief that organisms are intrinsically bound to increase in complexity.

Hermann Muller, in the early 20th century, discussed a concept similar to irreducible complexity.

A book-length study of a concept similar to irreducible complexity, explained by gradual, step-wise, non-teleological evolution, was published in 1975 by Thomas H. Frazzetta.

Michael Behe's controversial book Darwin's Black Box popularized the concept of irreducible complexity.

Michael Behe developed his ideas on the concept around 1992, in the early days of the ' wedge movement ', and first presented his ideas about " irreducible complexity " in June 1993 when the " Johnson-Behe cadre of scholars " met at Pajaro Dunes in California.

Like intelligent design, the concept it seeks to support, irreducible complexity has failed to gain any notable acceptance within the scientific community.

Some critics, such as Jerry Coyne ( professor of evolutionary biology at the University of Chicago ) and Eugenie Scott ( a physical anthropologist and executive director of the National Center for Science Education ) have argued that the concept of irreducible complexity, and more generally, intelligent design is not falsifiable, and therefore, not scientific.

Professor Behe has applied the concept of irreducible complexity to only a few select systems: ( 1 ) the bacterial flagellum ; ( 2 ) the blood-clotting cascade ; and ( 3 ) the immune system.

* A rigorous mathematical analysis of the concept of irreducible complexity by Mishkin Berteig.

In particular, files of random data cannot be consistently compressed by any conceivable lossless data compression algorithm: indeed, this result is used to define the concept of randomness in algorithmic complexity theory.

Dijkstra wrote his seminal paper, " Go To Statement Considered Harmful ", in 1968 and David Parnas introduced the key concept of modularity and information hiding in 1972 to help programmers deal with the ever increasing complexity of software systems.

Evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins employs the typing monkey concept in his book The Blind Watchmaker to demonstrate the ability of natural selection to produce biological complexity out of random mutations.

He is a proponent of intelligent design, well known for promoting the concept of specified complexity.

The concept of intelligent design involves the argument that an intelligent mind is responsible for the complexity of life and that it can be detected empirically.

Intelligent design — and Dembski's concept of specified complexity — are seen by the scientific community as a form of conservative Christian creationism, attempting to portray itself as science.

Earlier problems of complexity were solved by developers by choosing the right data structures, developing algorithms, and by applying the concept of separation of concerns.

Logistics as a business concept evolved in the 1950s due to the increasing complexity of supplying businesses with materials and shipping out products in an increasingly globalized supply chain, leading to a call for experts called supply chain logisticians.

Thus, complexity is not a special quality of systems, like for instance the concept of " heat ", but simply a label for all systems whose computations are sophisticated.

An important point is that a data structure will return a model of the most general concept that can be implemented efficiently — computational complexity requirements are explicitly part of the concept definition.

This work led to the joint bestowal of the Turing Award on the two, for the introduction of this fundamental concept of computational complexity theory.

The concept that a narrowly defined nuclear family is central to stability in modern society has been promoted by modern social conservatives in the United States, and has been challenged as historically and sociologically inadequate to describe the complexity of actual family relations.
