Download or read book The BRICS and the Future of Global Order written by Oliver Stuenkel and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2020-02-03 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The transformation of the BRIC acronym from an investment term into a household name of international politics and into a semi-institutionalized political outfit (called BRICS, with a capital ‘S’), is one of the defining developments in international politics in the past decades. While the concept is now commonly used in the general public debate and international media, there has not yet been a comprehensive and scholarly analysis of the history of the BRICS term. The BRICS and the Future of Global Order, Second Edition offers a definitive reference history of the BRICS as a term and as an institution—a chronological narrative and analytical account of the BRICS concept from its inception in 2001 to the political grouping it is today. In addition, it analyzes what the rise of powers like Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa means for the future of global order. Will the BRICS countries seek to establish a parallel system with its own distinctive set of rules, institutions, and currencies of power, rejecting key tenets of liberal internationalism, are will they seek to embrace the rules and norms that define today’s Western-led order?

This book was released on 2024-09-07 with total page 71 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: O Papel da Psicologia Financeira A psicologia financeira é um campo multidisciplinar que explora como as emoções, pensamentos e comportamentos influenciam a forma como lidamos com o dinheiro. Ela se baseia na premissa de que a maneira como pensamos e sentimos em relação ao dinheiro pode afetar profundamente nossas decisões financeiras e, consequentemente, nossa saúde mental e bem-estar. O dinheiro, muitas vezes visto como um recurso meramente prático, é carregado de significados emocionais e psicológicos profundos. Nossas atitudes em relação ao dinheiro são moldadas por uma combinação de fatores, incluindo nossa educação, experiências passadas e crenças culturais. Esse labirinto mental pode ter um impacto significativo na forma como gerenciamos nossas finanças e enfrentamos desafios econômicos. Como as Crenças Financeiras se Desenvolvem Desde a infância, somos expostos a diversas mensagens sobre dinheiro. Essas mensagens vêm de nossos pais, professores, mídia e cultura. Por exemplo, uma criança que cresce em um ambiente onde o dinheiro é visto como fonte de estresse pode desenvolver uma visão negativa e ansiosa sobre finanças. Da mesma forma, crenças como "dinheiro é a raiz de todos os males" ou "somente pessoas ricas são felizes" podem influenciar a forma como lidamos com nossos próprios recursos financeiros. As crenças financeiras são frequentemente formadas por experiências pessoais e observações. Se alguém experimentou dificuldades financeiras em um período crítico da vida, pode desenvolver uma visão de que o dinheiro é sempre uma fonte de problema e insegurança. Essas crenças, muitas vezes, moldam nosso comportamento financeiro na vida adulta. O Impacto das Emoções nas Decisões Financeiras As emoções desempenham um papel crucial nas nossas decisões financeiras. Sentimentos de ansiedade, medo, culpa e euforia podem influenciar se gastamos, economizamos ou investimos de uma determinada maneira. Por exemplo, alguém que experimenta ansiedade financeira pode adotar um comportamento excessivamente cauteloso, evitando investimentos e economizando em excesso, o que pode limitar o crescimento financeiro e o bem-estar geral. A influência das emoções também é visível em comportamentos como compras impulsivas. Muitas vezes, usamos as compras como uma forma de lidar com o estresse ou a depressão, buscando um alívio temporário através de bens materiais. Esse tipo de comportamento pode levar a problemas financeiros a longo prazo, bem como afetar negativamente nossa saúde mental. O Efeito das Decisões Financeiras na Saúde Mental As decisões financeiras têm um impacto profundo em nossa saúde mental. A gestão inadequada do dinheiro pode resultar em estresse crônico, ansiedade e até depressão. Por outro lado, uma abordagem saudável e bem planejada em relação às finanças pode contribuir para uma sensação de segurança e controle, melhorando o bem-estar mental. Por exemplo, ter um plano financeiro sólido e metas claras pode proporcionar uma sensação de controle e reduzir a ansiedade associada à incerteza financeira. Ter uma abordagem equilibrada em relação aos gastos e economias pode criar uma base sólida para o bem-estar mental, ajudando a prevenir problemas como o estresse financeiro. Conclusão Entender o labirinto da mente financeira é essencial para melhorar tanto nossa saúde financeira quanto nossa saúde mental. A forma como pensamos e sentimos em relação ao dinheiro influencia diretamente nossas decisões e nosso bem-estar geral. Ao explorar e compreender essas dinâmicas psicológicas, podemos desenvolver estratégias mais eficazes para gerenciar nossas finanças e melhorar nossa qualidade de vida. A psicologia financeira oferece uma lente valiosa para entender essas questões e encontrar soluções para criar um equilíbrio saudável entre mente e dinheiro. Aprenda Muito Mais...

Download or read book Mente Milion ria Desvendando a Psicologia dos Sucessos e Fracassos Financeiros written by MAX EDITORIAL and published by Max Editorial. This book was released on 2024-09-07 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As decisões financeiras que tomamos ao longo da vida raramente são puramente racionais. Embora a lógica e o cálculo tenham seu papel, nossas escolhas financeiras são frequentemente influenciadas por fatores psicológicos profundos, moldados por experiências passadas, emoções, crenças e até mesmo nossa criação. Para entender completamente por que tomamos certas decisões econômicas, é necessário primeiro explorar as raízes dessas decisões e como elas se formam. As Origens Psicológicas das Decisões Financeiras Desde cedo, somos expostos a uma série de mensagens sobre dinheiro que influenciam nossa relação com ele. Essas mensagens podem vir dos pais, da escola, da mídia, ou da sociedade em geral. Se você cresceu em um ambiente onde o dinheiro era escasso, pode ter desenvolvido uma mentalidade de escassez, que valoriza a segurança e evita riscos. Por outro lado, aqueles que foram criados em ambientes onde o dinheiro era abundante podem desenvolver uma mentalidade mais arriscada, acreditando que sempre haverá mais a ganhar. Essas primeiras experiências moldam nossas crenças sobre o dinheiro e, por extensão, nossas decisões financeiras. Por exemplo, alguém que foi ensinado a poupar desde cedo pode ser avesso ao gasto excessivo, enquanto outra pessoa que viu seus pais constantemente endividados pode ter uma abordagem mais relaxada em relação ao crédito. O Papel das Emoções As emoções desempenham um papel crucial nas decisões financeiras. O medo e a ganância são dois dos principais impulsionadores das decisões financeiras, especialmente no mercado de investimentos. Quando o mercado está em alta, o otimismo pode levar a decisões impulsivas, como investir sem uma análise adequada. Por outro lado, durante períodos de crise, o medo pode levar ao pânico e à venda de ativos em desvalorização, resultando em perdas financeiras significativas. Além disso, a ansiedade financeira é uma emoção comum que pode paralisar a tomada de decisões. Quando nos sentimos ansiosos em relação ao dinheiro, tendemos a evitar enfrentar questões financeiras, como o planejamento para a aposentadoria ou a elaboração de um orçamento, o que pode levar a consequências negativas a longo prazo. Crenças e Comportamento Financeiro As crenças sobre dinheiro, muitas vezes inconscientes, também moldam nosso comportamento financeiro. Por exemplo, se você acredita que "o dinheiro é a raiz de todo o mal", pode sabotar suas próprias chances de sucesso financeiro, afastando oportunidades que poderiam levá-lo à prosperidade. Essas crenças limitantes podem ser profundamente enraizadas e, muitas vezes, exigem um esforço consciente para serem superadas. Por outro lado, aqueles que acreditam que "o dinheiro traz liberdade" podem estar mais inclinados a adotar comportamentos que promovem o acúmulo de riqueza, como investir, poupar e buscar novas fontes de renda. Essas crenças podem servir como motivadores poderosos, impulsionando-nos em direção a nossos objetivos financeiros. Aprenda Muito Mais...

Download or read book Religions in Rio written by João do Rio and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: João do Rio (1881-1921) was a literary journalist before his time, before the term existed, before anyone saw that journalism could be raised to the level of art by infusing it with intellecual insight and sociological analysis. He went wherever necessary to observe life as Rio de Janeiro struggled to enter the 20th century while clinging to its traditional imperial politics and lifestyle. He flaunted his homosexuality a century before it became socially acceptable. Here, for the first time in English, are João do Rio's reports on the bizarre confluence of European, North American, and African religions that found adherents in Rio de Janeiro. Candomblé, Spiritism, Positivism, Satanism, Judaism, the Cult of the Sea, the New Jerusalem, the Physiolaters, the Priestesses, the Evangelicals...they all fell under his scrutiny. Ana Lessa-Schmidt's translation of As Religiões no Rio, brilliant and true to the original, brings João do Rio's insight and revelations to full light. Just as João do Rio took readers down the dark streets of the low-life and into dark houses of worship, Lessa-Schmidt's translation takes readers into one of the world's most glorious and mysterious cities during its post-imperial heyday at the turn of the 20th century. This bilingual edition is in Portuguese and English.

Download or read book Popular and Visual Culture written by Ricardo Campos and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2014-10-02 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Popular and Visual Culture: Design, Circulation and Consumption is a transnational project that fosters a dialogue with multiple origins, both in geographical and academic terms. From the onset, this book questions the concepts of visual and popular culture, terms which are currently applied both to describe scientific fields, as operative concepts in theoretical discourse, and to characterize specific cultural contexts. The book’s analysis and categorization of visual and popular culture pursues discourses and practices which mark different historical eras and shape social orders. Because popular iconic and written productions are the outcome of a network of political, economic, ideological and social circumstances that are often hardly detectable and too taken for granted to be critically recognized, even by those who draw, paint or write (and live) under their influence. That is why visual figurations of popular culture should be studied as the support of a deeply motivated symbolic discourse on the values shared by a community. This book deals, in a way or another, with how popular and visual artefacts and sceneries are socially built, preserved and/or contested. The volume brings together, not only different disciplinary perspectives, but also diverse empirical phenomena, while approaching the wide subject of visuality and popular culture.

Download or read book Brass Bands of the World Militarism Colonial Legacies and Local Music Making written by Suzel Ana Reily and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-15 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bands structured around western wind instruments are among the most widespread instrumental ensembles in the world. Although these ensembles draw upon European military traditions that spread globally through colonialism, militarism and missionary work, local musicians have adapted the brass band prototype to their home settings, and today these ensembles are found in religious processions and funerals, military manoeuvres and parades, and popular music genres throughout the world. Based on their expertise in ethnographic and archival research, the contributors to this volume present a series of essays that examine wind band cultures from a range of disciplinary perspectives, allowing for a comparison of band cultures across geographic and historical fields. The themes addressed encompass the military heritage of band cultures; local appropriations of the military prototype; links between bands and their local communities; the spheres of local band activities and the modes of sociability within them; and the role of bands in trajectories toward professional musicianship. This book will appeal to readers with an interest in ethnomusicology, colonial and post-colonial studies, community music practices, as well as anyone who has played with or listened to their local band.

Download or read book From Here to Diversity written by Clara Sarmento and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2010-08-11 with total page 405 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Here to Diversity: Globalization and Intercultural Dialogues sees interculturalism as movement, transit, travel, and the dynamics between cultures. Contemporary intercultural travel is a global journey, a circumnavigation at the speed of light that underwrites all the comings and goings, the departures and arrivals, the transmissions and receptions that are implicit in this title. Hence, From Here to Diversity examines the motivations, characteristics and implications of cultural interactions in their perpetual movement, devoid of spatial or temporal borders, in a dangerous but stimulating indefinition of limits. In the contemporary intercultural dialogue, new voices are making themselves heard, as valuable sources of study: the voices of women; non-occidentals; the non-powerful; forgotten narratives of a past that was as intercultural as the present (after all, what is colonialism other than a perverse form of interculturality?); global entertainment; tourism; oral literature; diaries; mythical narratives; the cinema; ethnography; and new teachings, among so many others. Because this project is also intercultural at its source and subject, From Here to Diversity: Globalization and Intercultural Dialogues adds to the coherence of the project by including contributions from the most wide-ranging backgrounds and nationalities, without fear of the alterity that, after all, we propose to study.
