Download or read book From Survival to Fulfilment written by Paul Valent and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-03-31 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1998. Paul Valent sees that the dialectic is not between "life and death" but between "life and trauma". This text theorizes that the big issues of life can now be approached through the science of traumatology. Through communication with, and observation of, people whose lives have been stretched under stress or disrupted by trauma, the fulfilling components of their lives can be defined, oriented and categorized. It introduces the theory on the back of clinical and historical material, examining the current state of such concepts as stress, trauma, defences, memories, post post-traumatic stress disorder, and other illnesses. It should be of interest to those in the healing professions or to those who work with traumatized individuals, lawyers, social workers, clergy and those in the humanities in general.

Download or read book From Self fulfilment to Survival of the Fittest written by Ewa Mazierska and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2015-01-01 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contrary to the assumption that Western and Eastern European economies and cinemas were very different from each other, they actually had much in common. After the Second World War both the East and the West adopted a mixed system, containing elements of both socialism and capitalism, and from the 1980s on the whole of Europe, albeit at an uneven speed, followed the neoliberal agenda. This book examines how the economic systems of the East and West impacted labor by focusing on the representation of work in European cinema. Using a Marxist perspective, it compares the situation of workers in Western and Eastern Europe as represented in both auteurist and popular films, including those of Tony Richardson, Lindsay Anderson, Jean-Luc Godard, Andrzej Wajda, DušanMakavejev, Jerzy Skolimowski, the Dardenne Brothers, Ulrich Seidl and many others.

Book excerpt: First published in 1998, this volume gives an account of personal identity derived from the Butler-Reid position, arguing that from the first person point of view one necessary condition of personal identity is the survival of the Self. Robin Harwood’s claim is that a normal human person is a combination of a Self, a mind and a body, locating the issue of personal identity as stemming from the nature of persons as compound entities.

Download or read book The Economics of Arrival written by Trebeck, Katherine and published by Policy Press. This book was released on 2019-01-15 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What do we want from economic growth? What sort of a society are we aiming for? In everyday economics, there is no such thing as enough, or too much, growth. Yet in the world’s most developed countries, growth has already brought unrivalled prosperity: we have ‘arrived’. More than that, through debt, inequality, climate change and fractured politics, the fruits of growth may rot before everyone has a chance to enjoy them. It’s high time to ask where progress is taking us, and are we nearly there yet? In fact, Trebeck and Williams claim in this ground-breaking book, the challenge is now to make ourselves at home with this wealth, to ensure, in the interests of equality, that everyone is included. They explore the possibility of ‘Arrival’, urging us to move from enlarging the economy to improving it, and the benefits this would bring for all.

Download or read book Colonial Syndrome written by K. Ramakrishna Rao and published by DK Printworld (P) Ltd. This book was released on 2019-02-07 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two centuries of British rule crystallized in the minds of English educated Indians a peculiar mindset that tended to undervalue their native ethos and moorings, and make English culture more attractive. This tendency is called the “colonial syndrome”. This syndrome has infected the modern Indian elite, who abandon their cultural roots and imitating the Western ways. This situation has drained them off their intrinsic creative capabilities and rendered them less likely to make any significant original contributions to nation building. Two centuries of British rule crystallized in the minds of English educated Indians a peculiar mindset that tended to undervalue their native ethos and moorings, and make English culture more attractive. This tendency is called the “colonial syndrome”. This syndrome has infected the modern Indian elite, who abandon their cultural roots and imitating the Western ways. This situation has drained them off their intrinsic creative capabilities and rendered them less likely to make any significant original contributions to nation building. This book, an outcome of Prof. K. Ramakrishna Rao’s work as a National Fellow of Indian Council of Social Science Research (ICSSR), attempts to define and elucidate this syndrome and its ill effects on the modern Indian mindset, and suggests means to contain and overcome it. It alerts people and the leadership about the negative and cascading effects of colonial syndrome, and pleads for Indianization of education, philosophy and psychology, among others in the country. Mahatma Gandhi’s concept of svadeśī is the driving force here. It has no negative attributes, only positive self-assertion for common good. Colonial Syndrome goes on to analyses Gandhi’s concept of svadeśī, and attempts to make clear the difference between education in India and Indian education, Indian philosophy and philosophy in India, and psychology in India and Indian psychology and emphasizes that India had its own unique standing on education, philosophy and psychology which needs to be revived and nurtured for fast social and economic development. About the Author: Professor Koneru Ramakrishna Rao is currently Chancellor of GITAM (deemed to be) University. He has the rare distinction of being National Fellow of the Indian Council of Social Sciences Research and the Indian Council of Philosophical Research, and Distinguished Honorary Professor at Andhra University. His earlier academic appointments include Professor of Psychology and Vice-Chancellor at Andhra University; Executive Director, Foundation for Research on the Nature of Man, USA; Chairman, A.P. State Council of Higher Education, and Advisor on Education, Government of Andhra Pradesh. He published 25 plus books and nearly 300 research papers. Prof. Rao received numerous honours that include the national award Padma Shri from the President of India and Honorary Doctoral degrees from Andhra, Acharya Nagarjuna and Kakatiya universities. He was elected as the President of the US-based Parapsychological Association three times, the only Asian to be so honoured.
Download or read book Addressing Gaps and Advancing Scholarship in the Study of Psychological Contracts written by Sarah Bankins and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-08-09 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book acknowledges the significant changes in the context and contours of the traditional employee-employer relationship over the last several decades and highlights the emergence of exciting new directions for the study of psychological contracts (PC). New technologies and emergent forms of work are extending ‘the temporal and spatial boundaries’ of employment, such as through the rise of the shared economy and ‘gig’ workers, uptake of virtual work and flexible work arrangements, and the use of off-site co-working spaces. Technology use now permeates many aspects of jobs, supported by artificial intelligence and machine learning technology. Factors that motivate work are also changing as new generations of employees embrace their callings and organizations increasingly recognize their responsibilities to society and to employee wellbeing. These changes are altering the traditional employer-employee relationship and are key motivators of this volume. The chapters in this volume chart new directions for PC research over the next decade by widening the theoretical and methodological lenses used to explore PC processes. This book will be valuable to advanced students, researchers, and practitioners in organizational psychology, organization studies, workplace training and human resource management, as well as those interested in improved performance of people and organizations. The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of the European Journal of Work and Organizational Psychology.
Download or read book The Interpersonal Neurobiology of Group Psychotherapy and Group Process written by Bonnie Badenoch and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-05-15 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Might it be possible that neuroscience, in particular interpersonal neurobiology, can illuminate the unique ways that group processes collaborate with and enhance the brain's natural developmental and repairing processes? This book brings together the work of twelve contemporary group therapists and practitioners who are exploring this possibility through applying the principles of interpersonal neurobiology (IPNB) to a variety of approaches to group therapy and experiential learning groups. IPNB's focus on how human beings shape one another's brains throughout the life span makes it a natural fit for those of us who are involved in bringing people together so that, through their interactions, they may better understand and transform their own deeper mind and relational patterns. Group is a unique context that can trigger, amplify, contain, and provide resonance for a broad range of human experiences, creating robust conditions for changing the brain.
