Stephen Schneck, characterizing Dallmayr's views of the “civilizing process,” writes: “Not enmity, conflict, and the ‘clash’ cited by so many as the way to a new world arrangement; Dallmayr instead proposes ‘space’ for mutual world- disclosure through dialogue and discursive openness.”Stephen F. Schneck, “Introduction: Dallmayr's ‘letting be,’” in Letting Be: Fred Dallmayr's Cosmopolitical Vision. Edited by Stephen Schneck, 1-29. Notre Dame, Indiana: University of Notre Dame Press, 2006, 23. . Dallmayr refers to cosmopolis as “an emerging global city or community.”Fred Dallmayr, Being in the World: Dialogue and Cosmopolis.

In the twentieth century, the turn towards dialogue can be seen as part and parcel of the so-called linguistic turn. He writes, “Associated prominently with the names of Wittgenstein, Heidegger, Gadamer, and Bakhtin, this turn has placed into the foreground the necessarily ‘relational’ or dialogical character of human thought and conduct.”Fred Dallmayr, Mindfulness and Letting Be: On Engaged Thinking and Acting. London: Lexington Books, 2014, 104. .

An important part of Amish life is Gelassenheit (), yieldedness, letting be, or submission to the will of God (in modern German approximately: composure, tranquility, serenity). This concept derives from the Bible when Jesus said, "not my will but thine be done," thereby making individuality, selfishness, and pride, abhorrent; see humility. "He submits to Christ, loses his own will, and yields (Gelassenheit) himself in all areas."Leonard Gross, Golden Apples in Silver Bowls, Lancaster Mennonite Historical Society, Lancaster, Pennsylvania, 1999, p.

Two key concepts for understanding Amish practices are their rejection of Hochmut (pride, arrogance, haughtiness) and the high value they place on Demut (humility) and Gelassenheit (calmness, composure, placidity), often translated as "submission" or "letting-be". Gelassenheit is perhaps better understood as a reluctance to be forward, to be self-promoting, or to assert oneself. The Amish's willingness to submit to the "Will of God", expressed through group norms, is at odds with the individualism so central to the wider American culture. The Amish anti-individualist orientation is the motive for rejecting labor-saving technologies that might make one less dependent on the community.

Considering the spectrum losses alone, a solar cell has a peak theoretical efficiency of 48% (or 44% according to Shockley and Queisser – their "ultimate efficiency factor"). Thus the spectrum losses represent the vast majority of lost power. Including the effects of recombination and the I versus V curve, the efficiency is described by the following equation: :\eta=t_su(x_g)v(f,x_c,x_g)m(vx_g/x_c) with :x_g=V_g/V_s :x_c=V_c/V_s where , , and are respectively the ultimate efficiency factor, the ratio of open- circuit voltage to band-gap voltage, and the impedance matching factor (all discussed above). Letting be 1, and using the values mentioned above of 44%, 77%, and 86.5% for the three factors gives about 29% overall efficiency.
