Part 1 of the book explores ways of defining, eliciting and illustrating stereotypes from theoretical standpoints.

Book excerpt: Retrouvez dans cette analyse approfondie de Pierre et Jean de Guy de Maupassant tout ce que vous devez savoir sur cette œuvre classique ! Lorsque Jean est désigné comme unique bénéficiaire de l'héritage d'un ami de la famille Roland, son frère Pierre décide de mener son enquête afin de découvrir pourquoi il a été ainsi mis à l'écart. Ses investigations, qui vont immanquablement faire resurgir du passé des secrets familiaux, bouleverseront à jamais la vie de Pierre... Que contient cette analyse d'oeuvre ? Après avoir détaillé la biographie de Guy de Maupassant, Tina Van Royen nous transporte directement au sein de l'histoire de Pierre et Jean, qu'elle résume fidèlement chapitre par chapitre. Elle se penche ensuite sur le contexte qui a vu naître ce texte, le naturalisme et réalisme du XIXe siècle, l'âge d'or du roman, ainsi que la Normandie natale de l'auteur, qui l'a fortement inspiré. Les personnages du roman, qu'ils soient centraux ou secondaires, sont alors soumis à une analyse rigoureuse. Vient ensuite l'étude des thématiques principales de l'oeuvre : la famille, la société capitaliste du XIXe siècle ou encore le désir d'évasion sont au cœur du roman. L'analyse du style de Maupassant fait l'objet du chapitre suivant, tandis que l'étude de la réception de cette œuvre classique clôt l'analyse littéraire.

Download or read book Building Cross Cultural Competence written by Charles M. Hampden-Turner and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2008-10-01 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: divdivCross-cultural competence is a skill that has become increasingly essential for the managers in multinational companies. For other business people, this kind of competence may spell the difference between surviving and perishing in the new global economy. This book focuses on the dilemmas of these managers and offers constructive advice on dealing with culture shock and turning it to business advantage. Opposing values can be understood as complementary and reconcilable, say Charles Hampden-Turner and Fons Trompenaars. A manager who concentrates on integrating rather than polarizing values will make much better business decisions. Furthermore, the authors show, wealth is actually created by reconciling values-in-conflict. Based on fourteen years of research involving nearly 50,000 managerial respondents and on the authors’ extensive experience in international business, the book compares American cultural values to those of more than forty other nations. It explores six culture-defining dimensions and their reverse images (universalism-particularism, individualism-communitarianism, specificity-diffusion, achieved status–ascribed status, inner direction–outer direction, and sequential time–synchronous time) and discusses them as alternative ways of coping with life’s—and business’s—exigencies. With humor, cartoons, and an array of business examples, the authors demonstrate how the reconciliation of cultural differences can cause whole organizations to grow healthier, wealthier, and wiser. /DIV/DIV

Download or read book The UN Convention on the Rights of Persons With Disabilities written by Oddný Mjöll Arnardóttir and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2009 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The International Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities is the first human rights treaty adopted by the United Nations in the 21st century. It seeks to secure the equal and effective enjoyment of human rights for the estimated 650 million persons with disabilities in the world. It does so by tailoring gerneral human rights norms to their circumstances. It reflects and advances the shift away from welfare to rights in the context of disability. The Convention itself represents a mix between non-discrimination and other substantive human rights and gives practical effect to the idea that all human rights are indivisible and interdependent. This collection of essays examines these developments from the global, European and Scandinavian perspectives and the challenge of transposing its provisions into national law. It marks the coming of age of disabilty as a core human rights concern.
