Example Sentences
Recent Examples on the Web Yet this approach itself reinforces a particular nationalist teleology. 
Fara Dabhoiwala, The New York Review of Books, 1 July 2021 The various models proposed for the mechanism of evolution, such as Lamarckian evolution, orthogenesis, and use-disuse, all implied some level of teleology, that there was a directionality inherent in the process. Mano Singham, Scientific American, 5 Sep. 2021 His early preoccupation with initial cosmic conditions led Barrow to reinstate in physical science the ancient philosophical concept of teleology, which (in its various guises) takes into account final as well as initial states. Paul Davies, Scientific American, 10 Oct. 2020 The Weberian analysis then offers no relief from that process, only a fatalism without a teleology. George Blaustein, The New Republic, 2 July 2020 Similarly, the transformative forward-thrust of time in Boyne’s narrative, which orders the novel’s very structure — each chapter break accounts for seven years in Cyril’s life — suggests a kind of progressive teleology. Manuel Betancourt, Longreads, 29 Mar. 2018 The question sums up why the hopeful teleology should nag at us: there are still people who’ve been left ashore. Manuel Betancourt, Longreads, 29 Mar. 2018 Which is what, some believe, happened to Thomas Aquinas, the medieval theologian who tried (and largely succeeded) to fit the entire world into a synthesis of Christian revelation and Aristotelian teleology. Andrew Sullivan, Daily Intelligencer, 22 Dec. 2017 What had happened was one story, the story of communism, the teleology of communism had turned out not to be true.
