Download or read book Eurasian Empires as Blueprints for Ethiopia written by Asnake Kefale and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-02-17 with total page 113 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a contribution to the global history of the transfer of political ideas, as exemplified by the case of modern Ethiopia. Like many non-European nation-states, Ethiopia adopted a western model of statehood, that is, the nation-state. Unlike the postcolonial polities that have retained the mode of statehood imposed on them by their colonial powers, Ethiopia was never successfully colonized leaving its ruling elite free to select a model of ‘modern’ (western) statehood. In 1931, via Japan, they adopted the model of unitary, ethnolinguistically homogenous nation-state, in turn copied by Tokyo in 1889 from the German Empire (founded in 1871). Following the Ethiopian Revolution (1974) that overthrew the imperial system, the new revolutionary elite promised to address the ‘nationality question’ through the marxist-leninist model. The Soviet model of ethnolinguistic federalism (originally derived from Austria-Hungary) was introduced in Ethiopia, first in 1992 and officially with the 1995 Constitution. To this day the politics of modern Ethiopia is marked by the tension between these two opposed models of the essentially central European type of statehood. The late 19th-century ‘German-German’ quarrel on the ‘proper’ model of national statehood for Germany – or more broadly, modern central Europe – remains the quarrel of Ethiopian politics nowadays. The book will be useful for scholars of Ethiopian and African history and politics, and also offers a case in comparative studies on the subject of different models of national statehood elsewhere.
Download or read book Restructuring Representation written by Jeremy Waddington and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2005 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout the industrialised world trade unionists are reforming their organisations as part of a strategy to adjust to new labour market, economic and political circumstances. This volume examines the role of merger activity in this process of reform. The book identifies the pattern of merger activity, the factors that promote its development and its impact on union structure and governance. Most merger activity is shown to originate in some adverse environmental change, such as membership decline. Furthermore, there is little evidence to suggest that mergers have improved union performance in the recruitment, retention and organisation of members, although, in some cases, the reform of systems of membership participation has been facilitated. The shift away from industrial unions has been accelerated by merger involvement, which has also brought into question the role of confederations where the number of affiliated unions has declined markedly. The book comprises two sections. The first section examines the merger process in ten countries (Australia, Austria, Denmark, Germany, Greece, Norway, Portugal, Sweden, UK and US). The second section comprises three 'horizontal' chapters in which authors of the national chapters develop themes that emerge from the national chapters in comparative perspective.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Duet Brinson wrote This Is What Happened to Me to answer people's questions when they see him. People often ask, "What happened to you?" when they see his upper body that is covered in several keloid formations. When Duet explained what happened, he is often met with looks of disbelief and with people thinking he is crazy. Some doctors said that they don't believe what Duet said. But Duet maintains, "It is the truth, so help me God." Duet wants the people of the United States to know what happened to him after completing the superior job of burning missile compartments out of navy submarines at the Puget Sound Naval Shipyard. Duet was the first person to have the experience of completing this job. The job had to be completed within the agreed upon three-month time span. Duet explains how this job has had numerous health-related repercussions not only for him but also for his family.

Download or read book What Unions No Longer Do written by Jake Rosenfeld and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2014-02-10 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From workers' wages to presidential elections, labor unions once exerted tremendous clout in American life. In the immediate post-World War II era, one in three workers belonged to a union. The fraction now is close to one in five, and just one in ten in the private sector. The only thing big about Big Labor today is the scope of its problems. While many studies have explained the causes of this decline, What Unions No Longer Do shows the broad repercussions of labor's collapse for the American economy and polity. Organized labor was not just a minor player during the middle decades of the twentieth century, Jake Rosenfeld asserts. For generations it was the core institution fighting for economic and political equality in the United States. Unions leveraged their bargaining power to deliver benefits to workers while shaping cultural understandings of fairness in the workplace. What Unions No Longer Do details the consequences of labor's decline, including poorer working conditions, less economic assimilation for immigrants, and wage stagnation among African-Americans. In short, unions are no longer instrumental in combating inequality in our economy and our politics, resulting in a sharp decline in the prospects of American workers and their families.

Download or read book Master Keys to Union written by Brother Dominick and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2019-03-19 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Union with God, Theosis, Deification, Enlightenment, Mystical Grace all come to life in your Being and Experience if you have the proper relationship and understanding that God is already Omnipresently everywhere, all you need to do, is to get out of the way and let it happen. The Master Keys within this Book will show you how.Following in the Christian Mystical and Contemplative traditions of the teachings of the Desert Fathers, the Philokalia, and the Eastern Orthodox mysticism, Brother Dominick takes the reader through a journey of instructions that lay out the way and methodology for the Union with God experience to manifest itself within and without.After over a decade of mystical transformations from the indwelling of the Holy Spirit, illumination by the blinding uncreated light, and various expeditions through the Dark Night of the Soul, Brother Dom would eventually receive a set of Master Keys from a South African Christian Mystic Hermit which would help his odyssey into the manifestation of the Union with God experience. The Master Keys eventually became a consolidation of the teachings of the Hermit and were in common with those of St, Francis of Assisi, Teresa of Avila, St. John of the Cross, Meister Eckhart, The Cloud of Unknowing, and various Mystics of Christian antiquity, all of whom had traversed the inner quest to finally sink into the Omnipresent Ocean of God.You are invited to partake in this Inner Journey, which is the birthright of the Soul. The collapsing of all dualities of the mind, resulting in the Nondual Oneness of God.BrotherDominick.org
