Download or read book Power and Principle written by Christopher Rudolph and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2017-04-18 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On August 21, 2013, chemical weapons were unleashed on the civilian population in Syria, killing another 1,400 people in a civil war that had already claimed the lives of more than 140,000. As is all too often the case, the innocent found themselves victims of a violent struggle for political power. Such events are why human rights activists have long pressed for institutions such as the International Criminal Court (ICC) to investigate and prosecute some of the world’s most severe crimes: genocide, war crimes, and crimes against humanity. While proponents extol the creation of the ICC as a transformative victory for principles of international humanitarian law, critics have often characterized it as either irrelevant or dangerous in a world dominated by power politics. Christopher Rudolph argues in Power and Principle that both perspectives are extreme. In contrast to prevailing scholarship, he shows how the interplay between power politics and international humanitarian law have shaped the institutional development of international criminal courts from Nuremberg to the ICC. Rudolph identifies the factors that drove the creation of international criminal courts, explains the politics behind their institutional design, and investigates the behavior of the ICC. Through the development and empirical testing of several theoretical frameworks, Power and Principle helps us better understand the factors that resulted in the emergence of international criminal courts and helps us determine the broader implications of their presence in society.

Book excerpt: “This book is packed with principles and insights for developing your full potential.” —From the foreword by John C. Maxwell A Wisdom PerspectiveThe best chance of real success in business, in government, in the family, in our personal goals—in any realm of life—is to develop a perspective that will enhance and expand upon what we already bring to the table. What we need is a wisdom-driven perspective. Our society is devouring information and knowledge but starving for the critical viewpoint of wisdom. We don’t really have a leadership problem, a financial problem, a relationship problem, or a problem with any other issue—we ultimately have a wisdom problem. And the only solution is a wisdom-driven outlook. Our outlook—how we perceive reality—really does determine our outcome. A Plan for Success Power Principles by Dr. Dale C. Bronner guides you into the countless benefits of the wisdom-driven life. The time-tested principles in this volume, gleaned from four decades of experience, study, and application, lead you step-by-step into foundational wisdom for building a strong and prosperous life and creating a concrete plan for both personal and professional success. A Life of Legacy The life we live is the legacy we leave. Legacy is not only about the future; it’s about what we are doing right now. When we are successful, it adds value to us, but our significance comes when we add value to other people, lifting them to a higher level in life. Power Principles shows you how to build an intentional legacy, bringing prosperity to the lives of others today—and impacting future generations with the wisdom-driven life.

Download or read book Power and Principle written by Joel E. Oestreich and published by Georgetown University Press. This book was released on 2007-06-26 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The UN Secretary-General, Kofi Annan, has instructed all UN specialized agencies and other affiliated organizations to consider how their work might advance the cause of human rights around the world. Many of these bodies have taken this call to heart, with a wide range of intergovernmental organizations (IGOs) trying to play a more active role in promoting human welfare. Power and Principle is a comparative study of how and why IGOs integrate human rights standards into their development operations. It focuses on the process of policy innovation in three UN-related IGOs: the UN Children's Fund (UNICEF,) the World Bank, and the World Health Organization (WHO). In his comprehensive analysis, Joel E. Oestreich uses case studies to demonstrate how their policies have evolved during the past two decades to reflect important human rights considerations. Drawing on interviews with dozens of staffers from IGOs, Oestreich creates a gripping narrative of the inner workings of these large bureaucracies. In each study he describes how the organization first became interested in human rights standards, how these standards were adopted as a priority, how the organization defined rights in the context of their work, and what a rights-based approach has meant in practice. The book argues that IGOs ought to be seen as capable of meaningful agency in international politics, and describes the nature of that agency. It concludes with an examination of these organizations and their ethical responsibilities as actors on the world stage.
Download or read book Power and Principle in the Market Place written by Jacob Dahl Rendtorff and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-08 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the global financial crisis, the need to develop a new kind of economy with a closer relation between ethics and economics has become an important challenge to the international society. This book contributes to this debate by investigating different aspects of global business ethics and corporate social responsibility which are becoming more and more important in the ongoing discussions on the relation between market institutions and democratic governments. The different chapters of the book deal with fundamental philosophical issues of the ethics of the market economy, including discussions of the role of the social sciences and economics in contributing to a sustainable economics and global responsibility in the twenty-first century. In this sense, the book takes up the transnational debate on ethics and economics in order to contribute to a more balanced, fair, just and conscientious development in the world. The book starts with a European perspective on these issues, based on philosophical, sociological and economic views from Europe. These views are further developed in order to share thoughts of how to improve corporate social responsibility, welfare and justice, and the advancement of ethical principles in the international context. It is argued that in the international community, good corporate citizenship as social and environmental responsibility is realized through individual and organizational cosmopolitan responsibility for fostering the common good for humanity. The chapters of the book were originally presented at a conference in Copenhagen, organized together with the German Cultural Institute - the Goethe Institute of Copenhagen, Copenhagen Business School and Roskilde University, Denmark.

Download or read book Principles of Power written by C. Cryss Brunner and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2012-02-01 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Women who seek to be school superintendents or who want to improve their chances for success in the superintendency can clearly benefit from the insights and cultural wisdom of women who have attained the position. Principles of Power shares perspectives from twelve successful women superintendents and puts them in a cultural context that highlights what they can teach us about their methods for success. To illustrate the underlying behaviors that helped them succeed, Brunner uses as a framework the system of beliefs gathered by Carlos Castaneda from Yaqui Indian warrior training. Castaneda calls this system the "riddle of the heart." To understand the riddle of the heart, women must be able to simultaneously comprehend and use two different perceptions of the world: that which is and that which is becoming. To be able to solve the riddle, warriors develop mind set and a discipline that allow them to get the best out of any conceivable situation. This book is the story of these warriors¬—twelve women superintendents—and how they have solved the riddle of the heart.

Let Bob teach you about: CONFIDENCE PERSISTENCE GOALS SUCCESS ATTITUDE COMMUNICATION ACTION DECISION RISK RESPONSIBILITY MONEY CREATIVITY There are a few people who are truly successful and many others who work hard all of their lives attempting to be successful. As a result, the average person believes that success is hard to obtain and that those who do achieve it are either lucky or extremely brilliant. Most people are so busy attempting to make ends meet that they never take the time to really study the highly successful people. Every person who has made such a study has arrived at the same shocking conclusion: success is merely a decision. You must decide what you want and then begin moving toward it. You decide where you are, and you begin with whatever you have. That’s it. "The only limits in our life are those that we impose on ourselves." - BOB PROCTOR
