This book was released on 2004-02-01 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this groundbreaking study, S. Jonathan Wiesen explores how West German business leaders remade and marketed their public image in the aftermath of World War II and the Holocaust. He challenges assumptions that West Germans - and industrialists in particular - were silent about the recent past during the years of denazification and reconstruction, revealing how German business leaders attempted to absolve themselves of responsibility for Nazi crimes while recasting themselves as socially and culturally engaged public figures. Through case studies of individual firms such as Siemens and Krupp, Wiesen depicts corporate publicity as a telling example of postwar selective memory.

Book excerpt: This book presents the website exactphilosophy.net, as of 2016. Written by a Swiss physicist, it contains lots of beautiful novel ideas, inspired by nature and physics, ancient and modern philosophy, as well as by astrology, the I Ching and more... Please note that this book does not yet present these ideas in a way and format suitable for most readers. Instead, it addresses anyone with a mind free enough to think outside of some of the usual ""boxes"", paired with imagination and also a more scientifically critical mind in the end, as implies the ""exact"" in exactphilosophy. In essence, first ""elements"" are tentatively defined from first principles, inspired mostly by Kant, then some correlations between these abstractly defined ""elements"" and the ancient Greek elements, as well as with the 8 trigrams of the Chinese I Ching, are revealed, and finally a simple model of the 12 star signs in terms of transformations of the elements is revealed and explored.

Download or read book exactphilosophy net 2019 written by Alain Stalder and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2019-05-21 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the website exactphilosophy.net in 2019. Written by a Swiss physicist, it contains lots of beautiful novel ideas, inspired by nature and physics, ancient and modern philosophy, as well as by astrology, the I Ching and more... For the first time, this book compiles all web pages and articles in a single printed volume. A real treasure trove for anyone with a mind free enough to ?think outside the tesseract?, about philosophy, science, history, art, and a lot more. Most contributions are related to a new approach to ?elements?, tentatively defined from first principles related to space and time in immediate perception, inspired by Kant, but often going way beyond ancient Greek elements or the trigrams of the Chinese I Ching, considering also how astrology or telepathy could work in ways that would be astonishingly simple everyday physics, even though they would still be ?illusions? in a way. And there is more.

Download or read book Civilising Criminal Justice written by David J. Cornwell and published by Waterside Press. This book was released on 2013 with total page 571 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Probably the best collection there is, Civilizing Criminal Justice is an inescapable resource for anyone interested in restorative justice: truly international and packed with experience while combining history, theory, developments and practical advice.This volume of specially commissioned contributions by widely respected commentators on crime and punishment from various countries is a 'break-through' in bringing together some of the best arguments for long-overdue penal reform. An increasingly urgent need to change outmoded criminal processes, even in advanced democracies, demands an end to those penal excesses driven by political expediency and damaging notions of retribution, deterrence and punishment for its own sake. 'Civilising' criminal justice will make it fairer, more consistent, understandable and considerate towards victims of crime, currently largely excluded from participation. Principles of reparative and restorative justice have become increasingly influential in the quest to provide justice which tackles harm, compensates victims, repairs relationships, resolves debilitating conflicts and calls offenders to account. And in any case, what real justification is there for subjecting more and more people to the expensive but hollow experience of prison, especially at a time of economic stringency. Civil justice - in its various forms - can be swifter, cheaper and more effective, in court or through mediated processes focusing on the harmful consequences of offences rather than inflicting punishment that may satisfy a baying media but come home to haunt the community. This brave and generous book (600 pages) illustrates the many different ways in which criminal justice can be 'civilised' and how lessons can be learned from practical experience across the world and shared expertise. It is a volume that every politician should read, every criminal justice professional should possess, and that every student of criminology and penology will find invaluable. David Cornwell, John Blad and Martin Wright are three of the leading international experts on this topic with many publications to their names individually. Contributors: Serge Gutwirth and Paul De Hert (Belgium), Federico Reggio (Italy), Bas van Stokkom (The Netherlands), Lode Walgrave (Belgium), Susan Easton and Christine Piper (UK), Louis Blom-Cooper QC (UK), Tapio Lappi-Seppälä (Finland), Thomas Trenczek (Germany), Jean-Pierre Bonafé-Schmitt (France), Per Andersen (Norway), Claire Spivakovsky (Australia), Ann Skelton (Republic of South Africa), Borbála Fellegi (Hungary), Judge Fred McElrea (New Zealand); and the editors.
