Book Misamis Occidental  Historical Vignettes of the Grand Northwest

Download or read book Misamis Occidental Historical Vignettes of the Grand Northwest written by Lhem Naval and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2017-01-31 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A humble endeavour to gather available historical documentary resources, this book does not pretend to be an exhaustive foundation for local history. This book rather aims to be a tool for us to constantly remember our past as we build up our identity for a meaningful future. Rich in history and cultural heritage, Misamis Occidental, the Grand Northwest of Mindanao, reminds us of our human call to reconnect with our historical past as a pilgrim people and learn noteworthy lessons in existence. The ecclesiastical and secular events that intertwined the early history of Misamisnons make us realize that the many aspects of our own historicity are priceless as life itself. The essays, each a product of reflection and historical research, deal with individuals, places and events related to the timeline of the Grand Northwest.

Book The Jesuits and Globalization

Download or read book The Jesuits and Globalization written by Thomas Banchoff and published by Georgetown University Press. This book was released on 2016-05-25 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Society of Jesus, commonly known as the Jesuits, is the most successful and enduring global missionary enterprise in history. Founded by Ignatius Loyola in 1540, the Jesuit order has preached the Gospel, managed a vast educational network, and shaped the Catholic Church, society, and politics in all corners of the earth. Rather than offering a global history of the Jesuits or a linear narrative of globalization, Thomas Banchoff and José Casanova have assembled a multidisciplinary group of leading experts to explore what we can learn from the historical and contemporary experience of the Society of Jesus—what do the Jesuits tell us about globalization and what can globalization tell us about the Jesuits? Contributors include comparative theologian Francis X. Clooney, SJ, historian John W. O'Malley, SJ, Brazilian theologian Maria Clara Lucchetti Bingemer, and ethicist David Hollenbach, SJ. They focus on three critical themes—global mission, education, and justice—to examine the historical legacies and contemporary challenges. Their insights contribute to a more critical and reflexive understanding of both the Jesuits’ history and of our contemporary human global condition.

Book Out of the Shadows

Download or read book Out of the Shadows written by Francisco J. Lara and published by Bugham is. This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Informal and unregulated economic activities remain an important feature of Mindanao's economy. Despite its enduring presence, the informal economy has largely been overlooked in the analysis of Mindanao's conflict dynamics. As a result, little is understood about the informal economy's impact on armed violence, development, and governance. This study, which represents the first attempt to incorporate the informal economy into the broader analysis of the region, argues that one cannot comprehend Mindanao's political and economic challenges, let alone address them, unless these shadow economies are scrutinized further.

Download or read book The Sulu Zone 1768 1898 written by James Francis Warren and published by NUS Press. This book was released on 2007 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "First published in 1981, ""The Sulu Zone"" has become a classic in the field of Southeast Asian History. The book deals with a fascinating geographical, cultural and historical ""border zone"" centred on the Sulu and Celebes Seas between 1768 and 1898, and its complex interactions with China and the West. The author examines the social and cultural forces generated within the Sulu Sultanate by the China trade, namely the advent of organized, long distance maritime slave raiding and the assimilation of captives on a hitherto unprecedented scale into a traditional Malayo-Muslim social system. How entangled commodities, trajectories of tastes, and patterns of consumption and desire that span continents linked to slavery and slave raiding, the manipulation of diverse ethnic groups, the meaning and constitution of ""culture, "" and state formation? James Warren responds to this question by reconstructing the social, economic, and political relationships of diverse peoples in a multi-ethnic zone of which the Sulu Sultanate was the centre, and by problematizing important categories like ""piracy"", ""slavery"", ""culture"", ""ethnicity"", and the ""state"". His work analyzes the dynamics of the last autonomous Malayo-Muslim maritime state over a long historical period and describes its stunning response to the world capitalist economy and the rapid ""forward movement"" of colonialism and modernity. It also shows how the changing world of global cultural flows and economic interactions caused by cross-cultural trade and European dominance affected men and women who were forest dwellers, highlanders, and slaves, people who worked in everyday jobs as fishers, raiders, divers or traders. Often neglected by historians, the response of these members of society are a crucial part of the history of Southeast Asia."--
