Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In "Conflict, Peace, and Prosperity in the Name of God," Murat Iyigun explores how longer-term developments influenced the spread of monotheistic religions and how these trends affected other societies and religions. He explores with the statistical methods of economics the way religions shaped the development of societies and framed the conflicts between and within them. Specifically, he asks why and how political power and organized religion became so swiftly and successfully intertwined, and then examines the role of religion in conflict historically, as well as the sociopolitical, demographic, and economic effects of religiously motivated conflicts." Conflict, Peace, and Prosperity in the Name of God "breaks exciting new ground in our understanding of religion and societies, and the conflicts between them."

Download or read book Making Democratic Governance Work written by Pippa Norris and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2012-08-27 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is democratic governance good for economic prosperity? Does it accelerate progress towards social welfare and human development? Does it generate a peace-dividend and reduce conflict at home? Within the international community, democracy and governance are widely advocated as intrinsically desirable goals. Nevertheless, alternative schools of thought dispute their consequences and the most effective strategy for achieving critical developmental objectives. This book argues that both liberal democracy and state capacity need to be strengthened to ensure effective development, within the constraints posed by structural conditions. Liberal democracy allows citizens to express their demands, hold public officials to account and rid themselves of ineffective leaders. Yet rising public demands that cannot be met by the state generate disillusionment with incumbent officeholders, the regime, or ultimately the promise of liberal democracy ideals. Thus governance capacity also plays a vital role in advancing human security, enabling states to respond effectively to citizen's demands.

Download or read book Pillars of Prosperity written by Timothy Besley and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2011-08-28 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How nations can promote peace, prosperity, and stability through cohesive political institutions "Little else is required to carry a state to the highest degree of opulence from the lowest barbarism, but peace, easy taxes, and a tolerable administration of justice; all the rest being brought about by the natural course of things." So wrote Adam Smith a quarter of a millennium ago. Using the tools of modern political economics and combining economic theory with a bird's-eye view of the data, this book reinterprets Smith's pillars of prosperity to explain the existence of development clusters—places that tend to combine effective state institutions, the absence of political violence, and high per-capita incomes. To achieve peace, the authors stress the avoidance of repressive government and civil conflict. Easy taxes, they argue, refers not to low taxes, but a tax system with widespread compliance that collects taxes at a reasonable cost from a broad base, like income. And a tolerable administration of justice is about legal infrastructure that can support the enforcement of contracts and property rights in line with the rule of law. The authors show that countries tend to enjoy all three pillars of prosperity when they have evolved cohesive political institutions that promote common interests, guaranteeing the provision of public goods. In line with much historical research, international conflict has also been an important force behind effective states by fostering common interests. The absence of common interests and/or cohesive political institutions can explain the existence of very different development clusters in fragile states that are plagued by poverty, violence, and weak state capacity.

Download or read book Prosperity Has A Purpose written by Rich Brott and published by Rich Brott. This book was released on 2008 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some people teach that we should give to get. Others teach that we should sacrifice and withhold from our family in order to give more. Neither extreme point of view is correct. We must provide for our family. We should not give to get. Our attitude should be one of obedience and liberality. The best way to give to the Lord is to understand all that He has given to us, and then freely give back to Him. Author Rich Brott provides a very balanced perspective in his latest book, Prosperity Has a Purpose. He notes that we gain by giving and we lose by withholding. When we freely give to God, regardless of our own personal need, we allow God to be big in our lives. We allow Him to provide for us. This can only happen as we buy into the principle of freely giving. If we are stingy in our giving and withhold from the Lord, we miss the many blessings and provisions He wants to shower upon us.

Download or read book Abstract Art as a Path Healing Connection and Market Value written by Dóris M. Fabiano and published by Portal dos Deuses. This book was released on with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout my journey, art has been a path of healing and transformation. With each new work, I strive to create effects that go beyond aesthetics, providing a physical, emotional, and spiritual experience for those who come close to this art. Places like Hauser & Wirth, Almine Rech, and the immersive Hidden Gallery have been fundamental to the art world as they evoke art's transformative power. Other notable galleries, such as Gazelli Art House, the London Science Gallery, and the daring Eternal Art, open doors to a new way of thinking and feeling the impact of art, much like the art I create. Moreover, spaces like CAG Vancouver, Galerie Ropac, and The Modern have taught me to view art as a dialogue with the viewer, expanding my understanding of the effects art can have on people. Initiatives like the Affordable Art Fair, Rise Art, and the engaging ICA challenge us to go beyond the conventional, demonstrating how art can be accessible, universal, and profoundly personal. The Saatchi Art platform and the innovative project at Pace Gallery open up opportunities for emerging artists to bring their voices to a global audience. In events like Frieze and Art Dubai, I see true celebrations of contemporary art that inspire me to constantly seek new forms of expression and connection. Other institutions, such as Baltic Art, Wilson Center, Gagosian, and the ever-inspiring Eden Gallery, represent pillars of learning for me. Each of these spaces, from the National Gallery, ICA San Diego, and Creative Growth, to more intimate exhibitions like those at Sultan Gallery, are part of a vast network of support and inspiration that strengthens the art world. Finally, I am profoundly grateful for the movements and collaborations in places like Chihuly, Kala, and the iconic Guggenheim, which remind us of the boundless possibilities within art. Other centers, such as Made4Art, Contemporary Calgary, and the careful curation at Kasmin Gallery, reinforce my commitment to art as a channel for healing and spiritual connection. It is with this deep admiration for spaces like the South London Gallery, Agora Gallery, Van Art Gallery, Monterone Art, and many others that I created this book. It is an expression of my gratitude to these galleries, which, over the years, have been an invaluable source of learning and inspiration. May this work serve as a bridge to new projects of healing and elevation, carrying the same transformative energy that these places promote. According to the report The Art Basel and UBS Survey of Global Collecting in 2024, there has been a surge in interest in emerging artists in 2024, with 52% of HNWIs directing their spending towards emerging artists, highlighting a trend towards investing in new voices. High demand for multi-channel sales: Dealers remain the top choice for HNWIs, with 95% purchasing through galleries, online and social media. Generational wealth transfer and collecting preferences: With an estimated $6 trillion in wealth projected to transfer to younger generations over the next 20 years, many heirs are showing a greater preference for diverse and experience-rich investments, such as transformative and healing art.
