Описание: This book is an extended argumentfor the critical importance which justice and ethical leadership should have inbusiness ethics education. The book examines the history of ideas and purposesin education, the contemporary role of business schools, and the socialfoundations of moral education to conclude that the pragmatic pursuit of thegood must be a central aim of business strategy. To meet the challenges offacing society today, the masters of business must be moral craftsmen in a justand democratic private property economy that serves the common good. The authorgrounds this vision for business leadership in the centrality of systems ofexchange in human society, in generating prosperity and providing for thegeneral welfare. Business ethics education has focused primarily on moralformation of individual leaders and managers in the context of ethical codes,organizational culture, and legal compliance. Important as this approach is, itfails to generate a sufficient level of business responsibility to satisfylegitimate social concerns regarding the use of natural resources,environmental sustainability, reasonable limitation of systemic risk in capitalmarkets, and fair allocation of goods and services. If the social purpose ofbusiness is not intentionally embraced and diligently pursued, the economy mayenrich a few but impoverish the society, its resources, and its democracy.Hence this book argues for a new vision of business ethics that isgrounded in public accountability of business operations and outcomes for thecommon good, as a matter of justice.

Описание: This book analyses and discusses the use of Islamic terms and symbols in the political party Sri Lanka Muslim Congress (SLMC). It is based on interviews with the leading members of the party and on analyses of the party’s official documents. It describes the history of Muslims in Sri Lanka, presents the analytical framework used, and discusses the official documents and narratives of party members, as well as the details of the Ashraff and Hakeem terms in Parliament. The book provides knowledge about the state of religion and politics in Sri Lanka, and provides insight into how a religious political Muslim party functions as a pragmatic rather than fundamentalist movement. Representing a recent study on the complex relationship between religion and politics, this book greatly advances our understanding of the power of religion and its effect on both individual lives and society.

Описание:
Pragmatic Children's Nursing is the first attempt to create a paediatric nursing theory which argues for the importance of giving children living with illness access to a childhood which is, as far as possible, equal to that of their peers. Set in the historical context of the development of children's nursing, this theory is presented in detail as an educational process, complete with eight outcome measures which allow the practitioner to evaluate its effectiveness.
This book explores the triad relationship between children, carers and nurses within the context of healthcare delivery. Ht analyses the moral and ethical implications of pragmatic children's nursing, which challenges the established ideas of family-centred care. In addition to offering theoretical grounding and debate, Randall presents four practical case studies which model how this theory may work within various hospital and community settings.
Establishing a link between the concepts inherent in pragmatism and our understanding of childhood within society, this accessible book will appeal to a global audience of undergraduate and postgraduate nursing students, researchers and policy makers.

Описание:
This book offers an interactionist perspective on theories of public representation, knowledge and immigration in museum institutions. Examining how a Franco-German museum exhibition represents immigrants and exposes public stereotypes, the analysis follows the process of the production and reception of the exhibition as it travelled from Paris to Berlin. The author proposes a microsociological contextualisation analysis integrating discourse analysis and ethnography to compare formats of museum work, social interaction in the exhibition and mass media debates. Visitor reception of the different exhibition versions reveals the symbolic nature of interactions in museums, for example concerning conflicting political voices and accusations of censorship. Depending on the institutional context, interactions in the museums are geared towards securing immigrants a place in national collective memory, towards carrying out debate on integration, or providing opportunities for personal encounters and reflection beyond national categorisation. This book will appeal to students and researchers interested in work on the intersection of sociology, cultural studies, and discursive psychology, in methods of discourse analysis and ethnography; and to practitioners working in museums.
