Download or read book Routledge Handbook of Organizational Change in Africa written by Franca Ovadje and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-08-06 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although change management and therefore effective adaptation to environmental complexity is considered a uniquely human cultural activity, the extensive change management literature is largely based on the experiences of organizations in the advanced economies of the West. As the economies of African countries become increasingly open, African organizations will need to be agile in order to adapt and grow in a dynamic, global environment. Currently, there is a dearth of contextualized knowledge on change management within Africa, but this handbook aims to address this by bringing together a wide range of experts to explore organizational change and change management from an African context. The handbook adopts a multidisciplinary (historical, philosophical, processual, and strategic) perspective as well as empirical accounts of change management. It addresses such issues as: What are the external and internal pressures for change? What is the content and process of change management? What are the essentials of effective change management? How can change management be theorized from an African perspective? What sort of leadership can best align with change management demands in an African context? How do organizations build internal change management capability? It is hoped that answers to these questions contained in the handbook will provide a contextualized understanding of change management which African organizations and scholars can leverage to respond to the threats and opportunities inherent in their increasingly dynamic environment. The handbook should constitute an essential reference for academics, researchers, and advanced students of change management, development studies, and African studies, as well as practitioners.

Download or read book Axum written by I︠U︡riĭ Mikhaĭlovich Kobishchanov and published by Penn State University Press. This book was released on 1979 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since its publication in the Soviet Union this work has been highly praised by historians and archaeologists around the world. This English translation now makes it available to a wider audience. The author worked closely with the editor and translator, adding much new material, to make this an expanded and revised edition, not just a translation. It is now the most up-to-date and authoritative work available in any language on the history and culture of the Axumite civilization of highland Ethiopia. The Axumites played a major role in trade between the classical world of the Mediterranean and countries bordering the Red Sea and the Indian Ocean. With its origins in the civilization of South Arabia, the Axumite Kingdom evolved by the fourth century AD, into one of the most powerful states in contact with the classical world. It took a thousand years for the Axumite Kingdom to run its course. Although it collapsed with the onset of the Medieval period, it profoundly affected the more recent history of Ethiopia. Kobishchanov covers such major topics as political history, political and economic organization, ideology, and the social system. The section on political history reveals unexpected and fascinating details regarding relations between Axum and such major powers as Rome, Byzantium, and Persia. He vividly reports the military expeditions which enabled Axum to carve out an empire extending from Nubia to Somalia, and South Arabia to southern Ethiopia--by which Axum secured total hegemony over the southern half of the Red Sea. With a broad anthropological perspective, the author reconstructs from ancient historical texts the structure and functioning of Axumite culture. In addition to adding new material to various parts of the book, the author has prepared a special appendix which critically discusses the documentary sources available to Axumite scholars. A special feature of the volume is Michels's introductory essay on Axumite archaeology which not only summarizes seventy-five years of excavations but also reports the recent efforts at archaeological interpretation. This book will prove to be of major interest to all concerned with Ancient and Near Eastern History, African history, African archaeology, and Black studies.

Download or read book Ethnos of the Earth written by Jaakko Heiskanen and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2024-11-30 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By constructing the first transnational and interlingual conceptual history of ethnicity, Ethnos of the Earth reveals the pivotal role this concept played in the making of the international order. Rather than being a primordial or natural phenomenon, ethnicity is a contingent product of the twentieth-century transition from a world of empires to a world of nation-states. As nineteenth-century concepts such as 'race' and 'civilisation' were repurposed for twentieth-century ends, ethnicity emerged as a 'filler' category that was plugged into the gaps created in our conceptual organisation of the world. Through this comprehensive conceptual reshuffling, the governance of human cultural diversity was recast as an essentially domestic matter, while global racial and civilisational hierarchies were pushed out of sight. A massive amount of conceptual labour has gone into the 'flattening' of the global sociopolitical order, and the concept of ethnicity has been at the very heart of this endeavour.

Download or read book Patria und Patrioten Vor Dem Patriotismus written by Robert von Friedeburg and published by Harrassowitz. This book was released on 2005 with total page 568 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Von Vaterland war bereits im 16. Jahrhundert die Rede gewesen. Seit dem Beginn des 17. Jahrhunderts bezeichneten sich einzelne Personen und Personengruppen mit einem neuen Wort, sie nannten sich 'Patrioten'. Erst seit dem 18. Jahrhundert sprachen die Zeitgenossen von ?Patriotismus'. Um jene Patrioten vor dem Patriotismus geht es in den 16 Beitragen dieses Bandes.Im Zentrum steht die Frage nach den Bedeutungen der Begriffe Vaterland und Patriot, nach ihrer Verflechtung mit dem Hinweis auf die Nation, und nach den Absichten derer, die sich dieser Begriffe bedienten. Die zunehmende Bezeichnung des Neologismus ?Patriot' seit dem fruhen 17. Jahrhundert verweist auf Veranderungen in den europaischen Gesellschaften, in deren Gefuge sich die Natur der Legitimitat der Herrschaftsbezeichnungen veranderte und den Beteiligten nahelegte, sich selbst mit einem neuen Begriff zu bezeichnen, um im eigenen Gemeinwesen Teilhabe an der Herrschaft fordern zu konnen. Der Band untersucht und beschreibt diese Veranderungen.
