Download or read book Durkheim Reconsidered written by Susan Stedman Jones and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-06-28 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Durkheim is one of the founding fathers of modern sociology and a key figure in the development of social theory. And yet today his work is often misunderstood, since it is commonly viewed through the lens of later authors who used his writings to illustrate certain tendencies in social thought. Durkheim Reconsidered challenges the common views of Durkheim and offers a fresh and much-needed reappraisal of his ideas. Stedman Jones dismantles the interpretations of Durkheim that remain widespread in Anglo-American sociology and then examines afresh his major works, placing them in their historical and political context. She emphasizes Durkheim's debt to the socialist and republican thought of his contemporaries - and especially to Renouvier who, she argues, had a profound influence on Durkheim's approach. This book will be recognised as a major reinterpretation of the work of one of the most important figures in the history of sociology and social thought. It will be of great interest to scholars and students in sociology, anthropology and related disciplines.

Book excerpt: Les médias s’en font l’écho quasi quotidiennement : la vie professionnelle est parfois la source d’une intense souffrance psychique qui peut mener aux pires extrémités. Mises en cause dans de nombreux cas, les relations de travail. Compliquées, insatisfaisantes, parfois inexistantes, elles sont sources de stress et de démotivation au point de paralyser les hommes et les entreprises. Dans ce MiniGuide, les auteurs passent en revue les différentes composantes des relations professionnelles : soi, les autres, la hiérarchie et le management, les conflits, etc., afin de décrypter l’univers professionnel et ses dangers. Ils s’appuient sur des travaux et des recherches en psychologie récents pour fournir au lecteur des outils de compréhension et aussi des stratégies concrètes pour améliorer ses relations avec les autres et sa satisfaction au travail. Le lecteur pourra notamment : - Améliorer sa connaissance et son estime de soi ; - Développer son intelligence sociale ; - Percevoir et évaluer les autres ; - Gérer les perturbations dans la conduite du management ; - Venir à bout des situations professionnelles difficiles, qui vont de la manipulation jusqu’au harcèlement moral. Dans cet ouvrage, les auteurs mettent également en évidence l’intérêt des « compétences douces », soft skills, dans l’univers du travail : empathie, capacité de persuasion, aptitude à communiquer, à travailler en équipe, sont des atouts indispensables aujourd’hui pour vivre bien dans l’entreprise et bien gérer ses relations de travail. A propos des auteurs : Boris von der Linde, psychologue, et Svea Steinweg, psychologue du travail, s’intéressent à un aspect éminemment complexe de la vie professionnelle, les relations de travail et leurs aléas.

Download or read book Edward Conze s The Psychology of Mass Propaganda written by Richard N. Levine and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-03-24 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Edward Conze’s The Psychology of Mass Propaganda presents a commentary on the psychology of propaganda during the rise of fascism in Europe in the 1930s. It discusses the conditions which generate vulnerability to misinformation in human societies, and thus offers insight into how propaganda may be "withstood." Completed in 1939, during the period of Conze’s own inflection from Marxist philosophy to Buddhist studies, the original manuscript was never published and is now in print for the first time. Presenting a unique historical perspective, while also appealing to an acutely topical interest in the conditions under which autocracy and fascism arise, the book examines the psychology of mass propaganda through copious contemporary and historical examples. Conze focuses especially on recent news articles and the statements of the propagandists of many of the governments that would go on to participate in the Second World War, including Germany, Italy, the USSR, USA and UK, all of which he interprets through the lens of recent psychological and historical research. The book has been edited and includes a new introduction by Richard N. Levine and Nathan H. Levine, also featuring a foreword by American legal scholar Laurence H. Tribe, and an afterword by actor, director, writer, and Buddhist priest Peter Coyote. This is a fascinating opportunity for scholars across several disciplines, including political scientists and psychologists, historians and sociologists, to access one of Conze’s previously unpublished works. It will also be of importance to those interested in Conze’s work on Buddhist philosophy, and in the psychology of propaganda more broadly.
Download or read book Creating Healthy Workplaces written by Caroline Biron and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-05-13 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The contributions in Creating Healthy Workplaces include a number of interventions that relate the efforts undertaken by researchers and organizations together, to reduce stress and improve the mental and physical health of employees through positive change initiatives. Those working in the field of occupational stress have received criticism that too much emphasis has been placed on negative issues and that positive initiatives have been largely ignored. With the growing influence of the positive movement, this book explores the implications of using a positive approach as opposed to a stress management one and compares the types of interventions they each require. From a positive perspective, there is a need to understand the characteristics of healthy, thriving, and flourishing people and organizations. This book explores the implications of using a positive approach as opposed to a stress management one. Some of the interventions described in Creating Healthy Workplaces target individuals and their attitudes and behaviours, others target workplace relationships, work units and the wider organization. Outcomes such as reduced occurrences of smoking, obesity, depression, elevated blood pressure, accidents and workplace injuries, presenteeism, absence and staff turnover are reported. The factors associated with the success of these interventions are identified and advice is given as to how interested individuals and organizations might proceed to develop worksite interventions on their own.

Book excerpt: In the late 1990s age is a pressing concern on a scale previously unimaginable in the social sciences and caring professions. The inexorable development of the age pyramid and the quick pace of technological change has brought work and age together as inter-linked areas of study and intervention.; This text introduces current academic thinking on work and age and describes ways in which working methods, the organization of work, and innovative programmes (such as tailored training) can be introduced to reflect more accurately an intrinsic part of human life: ageing. The book encompassing physiological, psychological and social factors.

Their combined effects reveal different signs of ageing on behaviour as well as on strategies to contend with professional requirements at different stages in life.; The style of this text makes it accessible to a non-specialist public but also opens avenues for those who wish to delve deeper into the matter to discover the state-of-the-art questions and issues being addressed in international work and age research.
