Download or read book Healthy Conflict in Contemporary American Society written by Jason A. Springs and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2018-04-12 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: US citizens perceive their society to be one of the most diverse and religiously tolerant in the world today. Yet seemingly intractable religious intolerance and moral conflict abound throughout contemporary US public life - from abortion law battles, same-sex marriage, post-9/11 Islamophobia, public school curriculum controversies, to moral and religious dimensions of the Black Lives Matter and Occupy Wall Street movements, and Tea Party populism. Healthy Conflict in Contemporary American Society develops an approach to democratic discourse and coalition-building across deep moral and religious divisions. Drawing on conflict transformation in peace studies, recent American pragmatist thought, and models of agonistic democracy, Jason Springs argues that, in circumstances riven with conflict between strong religious identities and deep moral and political commitments, productive engagement may depend on thinking creatively about how to constructively utilize conflict and intolerance. The result is an approach oriented by the recognition of conflict as a constituent and life-giving feature of social and political relationships.
Download or read book A Year at the Supreme Court written by Neal Devins and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2004-10-13 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The United States Supreme Court’s 2002–03 term confounded Court watchers. The same Rehnquist Court that many had seen as solidly conservative and unduly activist—the Court that helped decide the 2000 presidential election and struck down thirty-one federal statutes since 1995—issued a set of surprising, watershed rulings. In a term filled with important and unpredictable decisions, it upheld affirmative action, invalidated a same-sex sodomy statute, and reversed a death sentence due to ineffective assistance of counsel. With essays focused on individual Justices, Court practices, and some of last year’s most important rulings, this volume explores the meaning and significance of the Court’s 2002–03 term. Seasoned Supreme Court advocates and journalists from The New Republic, The Los Angeles Times, Newsweek, National Journal, Slate, and Legal Times grapple with questions about the Rehnquist Court’s identity and the Supreme Court’s role in the political life of the country. Some essays consider the role of “swing” Justices Sandra Day O’Connor and Anthony Kennedy within a Court that divides 5–4 more than any other group of Justices in the nation’s history. Others examine the political reaction to and legal context of the Court’s Lawrence v. Texas decision declaring a Texas law criminalizing homosexual sodomy unconstitutional. Contributors analyze the Court’s rulings on affirmative action and reassess its commitment to states’ rights. Considering the Court’s practices, one advocate explores the use and utility of amicus curiae, or “friend of the court” briefs, while another reflects on indications of an increased openness by the Court to public scrutiny. Two advocates who argued cases before the Court—one related to hate speech and the other to a “three strikes and you’re out” criminal statute—offer vivid accounts of their experiences. Intended for general readers, A Year at the Supreme Court is for all those who want to understand the Rehnquist Court and its momentous 2002–03 term.

Download or read book Identity Change after Conflict written by Jennifer Todd and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-11-23 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores everyday identity change and its role in transforming ethnic, national and religious divisions. It uses very extensive interviews in post-conflict Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland in the early 21st century to compare the extent and the micro-level cultural logics of identity change. It widens comparisons to the Gard in France, and uses multiple methods to reconstruct the impact of identity innovation on social and political outcomes in the 2010s. It shows the irreducible causal importance of identity change for wider compromise after conflict. It speaks to those interested in Cultural Sociology, Politics, Conflict and Peace Studies, Nationalism, Religion, International Relations and European and Irish Studies.

This book was released on 2023-11-18 with total page 819 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Handbook explores the ways in which religion among the African people has been applied in situations of conflict and violence to contribute to sustainable peace and development. It analyzes how peacebuilding inspired and enabled by religion serves as the foundation for sustainable development in Africa, while also acknowledging that religion can also be a tool of destruction, and can be used to fuel violence and underdevelopment. Contributors to this volume offer theoretical discussions from existing literature, as well as experiences of practitioners, to deepen the readers’ understanding on the role of religion and religious institutions in peacebuilding and development in Africa. The Handbook provides reflections on possible future developments as well, thereby aligning with the goals of SDG 16.
Download or read book America in Conflict written by Rogene A. Buchholz and published by University Press of America. This book was released on 2007 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book analyzes the values divide in modern America by examining the different values at stake in major policy areas, such as the war in Iraq where traditional reasons for going to war have been usurped by the Bush doctrine of preemption. The involvement of the religious right in politics also involves value issues including the separation of church and state. Other values concerned in the divide, such as a balance between freedom and security in our response to terrorism on American soil, fairness and equity in our taxation policies, and the values at stake in solving our environmental problems are explored in depth. The final section has a chapter devoted to the revitalization of democracy in America, and a concluding chapter discussing what the second term of the Bush administration means to America.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Democratic Republic of Congo, commonly known as Congo, is a central African country that is rich in natural resources such as coal, cobalt, and copper. It is a country that has been ravaged by colonialism, civil wars, and resource exploitation. It is home to over 80 million people, and despite being one of the most resource-rich countries in the world, the majority of the population lives in poverty. Congo is the second-largest country in Africa, and it shares borders with nine other African countries. Its history is complex, and it has seen colonization by the Belgians, which lasted for over 75 years, and multiple civil wars that have resulted in the loss of millions of lives. Today, the country is still struggling with political instability, corruption, and a struggling economy. However, it has also seen some progress in recent years, with peaceful transitions of power and a growing economy. The challenges in Congo are numerous, but there is also hope that the country can overcome them and fulfill its potential.

Book excerpt: “A fascinating ‘herstory’ of the Divine Feminine, rich in heart, depth and wisdom . . . an empowering message of hope and inspiration.” —Katherine Woodward Thomas, New York Times–bestselling author At the dawn of religion, God was a Woman. The Divine Feminine is known by innumerable names and symbol-rich manifestations across the world’s cultures. Throughout the ages the Goddess has been honored and worshiped as the Virgin Mary, Isis, Inanna, Asherah, Diana, Kuan Yin, Kali, Oshun, Athena, Pele, Sarasvati, Demeter, and White Buffalo Calf Woman, to mention just a few. Goddess Power takes you on a fascinating and, at times, surprising journey into the enduring essence of the Divine Feminine. Inside this book you will learn: • How the Goddess path offers an empowering message and inspiration • The importance of re-establishing a healthy balance and integration of both the “masculine” and the “feminine” archetypes • That the notion of God as archetypal “Sky-Father” is fairly recent in Western culture • Why the wisdom of the Goddess/Sacred Feminine has been ignored, distorted, and oppressed for centuries • How archetypes, mythic narratives, and qualities of Goddesses are alive within you and how they reveal intimate truths about yourself and others • How Goddesses can serve as empowering guides in your personal and professional life • Why especially black Goddesses/dark-skinned Mothers (e.g., Kali or Black Madonna) are a powerful symbol and catalyst for change in our times, both individually and collectively • And much, much more! “An empowering message and inspiration that can be drawn from the Goddess so humanity might evolve toward higher awareness.” —Karen Tate, author of Walking an Ancient Path and Goddess 2.0

Download or read book Truth in the False written by Ashish Chander Gaur and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2019-03-21 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Truth in the False digs deep into the human consciousness which is full of violence, hatred, fear, vanity, greed and so on, resulting from centuries of propaganda and conditioning. The exploration of the mind gives an understanding, which frees the brain from the false. Then one is able to live with dignity and happiness, and there is endless love, which helps us maintain healthy relationships with others. Any effort to free ourselves from the psychological problems created by the mind only makes them more complex. We try various ways to free ourselves but the problems keep recurring. All this prevents us from living life to the full. Explore how the mind, in an effort to free itself, wastes energy in trying to oppose one thing and achieve another, and gets caught in a conflict within itself and remains in a cause-effect chain. It is necessary to observe the complexity of human mind and there is great beauty in understanding its subtle ways and that alone can free ourselves from these problems. It is then that there is intelligence in which there is harmony between body, mind and heart. Such a mind is infinite, and has the quality of silence and is full of energy and happiness. In the freedom of humanity, there is hope for peace on earth. Find the truth in the false and let the light of understanding shine through.
