Download or read book Desmistificando as Cren as Financeiras O Impacto das Cren as Limitantes na Riqueza written by MAX EDITORIAL and published by Max Editorial. This book was released on 2024-09-07 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As crenças financeiras são convicções profundas que moldam nossa maneira de pensar e agir em relação ao dinheiro. Essas crenças não são meramente opiniões; são percepções enraizadas que orientam nosso comportamento financeiro e, por consequência, impactam significativamente nossas finanças pessoais e riqueza. Definição de Crenças Financeiras Crenças financeiras são ideias que temos sobre o dinheiro e como ele deve ser gerido. Elas podem ser tanto positivas quanto negativas e influenciam diretamente nossas decisões financeiras. Por exemplo, uma crença positiva pode ser "Eu sou capaz de criar riqueza" enquanto uma crença limitante pode ser "O dinheiro é a raiz de todo o mal". Essas crenças moldam nossa abordagem ao dinheiro, desde como gastamos até como investimos e economizamos. Crenças Limitantes vs. Crenças Capacitadoras Crenças Limitantes são pensamentos negativos ou autossabotadores que restringem nosso potencial de alcançar sucesso financeiro. Exemplos incluem "Eu nunca vou ser rico" ou "Dinheiro é difícil de ganhar". Essas crenças muitas vezes surgem de experiências passadas, influências familiares ou sociais, e podem criar barreiras significativas para o sucesso financeiro. Crenças Capacitadoras, por outro lado, são crenças positivas que ajudam a promover a prosperidade e a realização de objetivos financeiros. Exemplos incluem "Eu posso aprender a gerenciar meu dinheiro de forma eficaz" ou "Há oportunidades de crescimento financeiro ao meu alcance". Essas crenças fomentam uma mentalidade de crescimento e abertura para novas possibilidades. Aprenda Muito Mais...

Book Culture and Practical Reason

Download or read book Culture and Practical Reason written by Marshall Sahlins and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2013-11-22 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The main thrust of this book is to deliver a major critique of materialist and rationalist explanations of social and cultural forms, but the in the process Sahlins has given us a much stronger statement of the centrality of symbols in human affairs than have many of our 'practicing' symbolic anthropologists. He demonstrates that symbols enter all phases of social life: those which we tend to regard as strictly pragmatic, or based on concerns with material need or advantage, as well as those which we tend to view as purely symbolic, such as ideology, ritual, myth, moral codes, and the like. . . ."—Robert McKinley, Reviews in Anthropology

Book excerpt: Taking a unique anthropological apprach, Bush Base: Forest Farm explores the management of resources in third would development programmes. The contributors, all distinguished anthropologists with practical experience of development projects, focus on the role of human cultural imagination in the use of environmental resources. They challenge the traditional sharp distinction between human settlement and natual environment (farm or camp, forest or bush), and argue that development programmes should place at their centre an appreciation of people's cosmologies and cultural understandings.

Book Lines in the Water

    Book Details:
  • Author : Ben Orlove
  • Publisher : Univ of California Press
  • Release : 2002-06-13
  • ISBN : 0520935896
  • Pages : 318 pages

Download or read book Lines in the Water written by Ben Orlove and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2002-06-13 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This beautifully written book weaves reflections on anthropological fieldwork together with evocative meditations on a spectacular landscape as it takes us to the remote indigenous villages on the shore of Lake Titicaca, high in the Peruvian Andes. Ben Orlove brings alive the fishermen, reed cutters, boat builders, and families of this isolated region, and describes the role that Lake Titicaca has played in their culture. He describes the landscapes and rhythms of life in the Andean highlands as he considers the intrusions of modern technology and economic demands in the region. Lines in the Water tells a local version of events that are taking place around the world, but with an unusual outcome: people here have found ways to maintain their cultural autonomy and to protect their fragile mountain environment. The Peruvian highlanders have confronted the pressures of modern culture with remarkable vitality. They use improved boats and gear and sell fish to new markets but have fiercely opposed efforts to strip them of their indigenous traditions. They have retained their customary practice of limiting the amount of fishing and have continued to pass cultural knowledge from one generation to the next--practices that have prevented the ecological crises that have followed commercialization of small-scale fisheries around the world. This book--at once a memoir and an ethnography--is a personal and compelling account of a research experience as well as an elegantly written treatise on themes of global importance. Above all, Orlove reminds us that human relations with the environment, though constantly changing, can be sustainable.

Book The Wealth of Nature

    Book Details:
  • Author : Donald Worster
  • Publisher : Oxford University Press
  • Release : 1994-10-27
  • ISBN : 0198023944
  • Pages : 268 pages

Download or read book The Wealth of Nature written by Donald Worster and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1994-10-27 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hailed as "one of the most eminent environmental historians of the West" by Alan Brinkley in The New York Times Book Review, Donald Worster has been a leader in reshaping the study of American history. Winner of the prestigious Bancroft Prize for his book Dust Bowl, Worster has helped bring humanity's interaction with nature to the forefront of historical thinking. Now, in The Wealth of Nature, he offers a series of thoughtful, eloquent essays which lay out his views on environmental history, tying the study of the past to today's agenda for change. The Wealth of Nature captures the fruit of what Worster calls "my own intellectual turning to the land." History, he writes, represents a dialogue between humanity and nature--though it is usually reported as if it were simple dictation. Worster takes as his point of departure the approach expressed early on by Aldo Leopold, who stresses the importance of nature in determining human history; Leopold pointed out that the spread of bluegrass in Kentucky, for instance, created new pastures and fed the rush of American settlers across the Appalachians, which affected the contest between Britain, France, and the U.S. for control of the area. Worster's own work offers an even more subtly textured understanding, noting in this example, for instance, that bluegrass itself was an import from the Old World which supplanted native vegetation--a form of "environmental imperialism." He ranges across such areas as agriculture, water development, and other questions, examining them as environmental issues, showing how they have affected--and continue to affect--human settlement. Environmental history, he argues, is not simply the history of rural and wilderness areas; cities clearly have a tremendous impact on the land, on which they depend for their existence. He argues for a comprehensive approach to understanding our past as well as our present in environmental terms. "Nostalgia runs all through this society," Worster writes, "fortunately, for it may be our only hope of salvation." These reflective and engaging essays capture the fascination of environmental history--and the beauty of nature lost or endangered--underscoring the importance of intelligent action in the present.

Book Anthropology and Anthropologists

Download or read book Anthropology and Anthropologists written by Adam Kuper and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-04-08 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On its first publication in 1973 Adam Kuper's entertaining history of half a century of British social anthropology provoked strong reactions. But his often irreverent account soon established itself as one of the introductions to anthropology. Since the second revised edition was published in 1983, important developments have occurred within British and European anthropology. This third, enlarged and updated edition responds to these fresh currents. Adam Kuper takes the story up to the present day, and a new final chapter traces the emergence of a modern European social anthropology in contrast with developments in American cultural anthropology over the last two decades. Anthropology and Anthropologists provides a critical historical account of modern British social anthropology: it describes the careers of the major theorists, their ideas and their contributions in the context of the intellectual and institutional environments in which they worked.

Book Pederasty and Pedagogy in Archaic Greece

Download or read book Pederasty and Pedagogy in Archaic Greece written by William A. Percy and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 1996 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Combining impeccable scholarship with accessible, straightforward prose, Pederasty and Pedagogy in Archaic Greece argues that institutionalized pederasty began after 650 B.C., far later than previous authors have thought, and was initiated as a means of stemming overpopulation in the upper class. William Armstrong Percy III maintains that Cretan sages established a system under which a young warrior in his early twenties took a teenager of his own aristocratic background as a beloved until the age of thirty, when service to the state required the older partner to marry. The practice spread with significant variants to other Greek-speaking areas. In some places it emphasized development of the athletic, warrior individual, while in others both intellectual and civic achievement were its goals. In Athens it became a vehicle of cultural transmission, so that the best of each older cohort selected, loved, and trained the best of the younger. Pederasty was from the beginning both physical and emotional, the highest and most intense type of male bonding. These pederastic bonds, Percy believes, were responsible for the rise of Hellas and the "Greek miracle": in two centuries the population of Attica, a mere 45,000 adult males in six generations, produced an astounding number of great men who laid the enduring foundations of Western thought and civilization.

Book The Neoliberal City

    Book Details:
  • Author : Jason Hackworth
  • Publisher : Cornell University Press
  • Release : 2014-01-15
  • ISBN : 0801470048
  • Pages : 252 pages

Download or read book The Neoliberal City written by Jason Hackworth and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2014-01-15 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The shift in the ideological winds toward a "free-market" economy has brought profound effects in urban areas. The Neoliberal City presents an overview of the effect of these changes on today's cities. The term "neoliberalism" was originally used in reference to a set of practices that first-world institutions like the IMF and World Bank impose on third-world countries and cities. The support of unimpeded trade and individual freedoms and the discouragement of state regulation and social spending are the putative centerpieces of this vision. More and more, though, people have come to recognize that first-world cities are undergoing the same processes. In The Neoliberal City, Jason Hackworth argues that neoliberal policies are in fact having a profound effect on the nature and direction of urbanization in the United States and other wealthy countries, and that much can be learned from studying its effect. He explores the impact that neoliberalism has had on three aspects of urbanization in the United States: governance, urban form, and social movements. The American inner city is seen as a crucial battle zone for the wider neoliberal transition primarily because it embodies neoliberalism's antithesis, Keynesian egalitarian liberalism. Focusing on issues such as gentrification in New York City; public-housing policy in New York, Chicago, and Seattle; downtown redevelopment in Phoenix; and urban-landscape change in New Brunswick, N.J., Hackworth shows us how material and symbolic changes to institutions, neighborhoods, and entire urban regions can be traced in part to the rise of neoliberalism.
