Book The Social Conscience of Latin American Writing

Download or read book The Social Conscience of Latin American Writing written by Naomi Lindstrom and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A CHOICE Outstanding Academic Book Literature in Latin America has long been a vehicle for debates over the interpretation of social history, cultural identity, and artistic independence. Indeed, Latin American literature has gained international respect for its ability to present social criticism through works of imaginative creation. In this comprehensive, up-to-the-minute survey of research and opinion by leading Latin American cultural and literary critics, Naomi Lindstrom examines five concepts that are currently the focus of intense debate among Latin American writers and thinkers. Writing in simple, clear terms for both general and specialist readers of Latin American literature, she explores the concepts of autonomy and dependency, postmodernism, literary intellectuals and the mass media, testimonial literature, and gender issues, including gay and lesbian themes. Excerpts (in English) from relevant literary works illustrate each concept, while Lindstrom also traces its passage from the social sciences to literature.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How we teach ethics has been an ambiguous instructional area for many years. In religious schools it is left to the work of the religion teacher, and in public schools it is often incorporated into a civics course. Across the curriculum there are multiple points at which we can incorporate the study of ethics in interdisciplinary ways. In this volume we will focus on how educators in high schools (grades 9-12) can incorporate the teaching of ethics effectively across all disciplines (Sciences, Humanities, Arts, Math and Technology). The introduction of the book will be a foundational description of ethics - what it means to study ethics and to be an ethical person.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Building on the premise called the sociology of accounting, this book explores the sociology in the relationship between the market (global) economy and the concept of a caring (or collectivist) society. The author places the 'idea of accounting’ as central to the social conscience in a functioning sense, and revisits topics like globalization, the impact on society of rapid scientific and technological changes, shifting moral and family values, and the role of education. Ending with a message of hope, solutions are developed that involve recognizing the authority of social conscience and giving education the key role in the proposed transformative social action.

Book Fragments of a Social Conscience

Download or read book Fragments of a Social Conscience written by Natasha Stultz and published by Natasha Stultz. This book was released on 2011-03-03 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When a former CA governor's body is found outside of a sleepy little mountain town no one can believe that his body was fed through a log splitter. Beyond shocking is the revelation that this is only the first in a series of unnervingly sadistic murders to come unless Dr. Strickland Dunbar and his team can identify and apprehend the sociopathic serial killer who calls herself "Angel." Fragments of a Social Conscience is a cerebral thriller that defies the limits of human debauchery as it plunges you into a world of corruption, human experimentation and slavery; that forces one to confront the evil lurking beneath the surface. As the bodies begin to pile up, it begs the question; is Angel right? Is this the only fitting punishment for their crimes? A chilling blend of retribution and torture that addresses the dangers of an over medicated, under informed nation being led to slaughter by an elite circle of soulless power brokers. This suspense filled ride careens through the twisted terrain of a young woman's psychosis as she challenges society's definition of justice.

Book The Social Conscience

Download or read book The Social Conscience written by Michel Glautier and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2013-11 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Social Conscience tells of the past, discusses the present, and looks to the future of a caring society that rests of two fundamental but simple principles: the instinct to care and the necessity to share. The book provides a detailed analysis of how these principles define who we are and dictate the decisions we make when determining right from wrong in any situation, whether it concerns the actions of everyday people, government, or individuals holding power in a hierarchical structure. Shedding light on a subject widely discussed but rarely explained, The Social Conscience fully engages readers in a discussion of the nature of the social conscience and its social, political, business, and personal conduct. It explores the ways our decisions impact society, as well as the ways society impacts our decisions. Topics addressed in this highly accessible volume include the social consequences of a market economy, policy objectives and educational goals for empowering a caring society, conflict resolution, and the future of consciousness with respect to the dynamics of change. The 2013 release of The Social Conscience celebrates the revision of the well-received first edition of the title, which was published as a hardback in London in 2007.

Book Conscience and Cognition in Social Research

Download or read book Conscience and Cognition in Social Research written by Zhang Qingxiong and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-04-07 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a critical examination of the different roles of conscience and cognition in social research in China and the West, exploring how the two traditions can enrich each other and help societies navigate through the complex intellectual and moral crises of our time. Drawing on a rich array of primary and secondary sources, this title traces the development of the Confucian conception of conscience, from Confucius and Mencius to Xiong Shili and Mou Zongsan, two representatives of Neo-Confucianism. This primacy of a moral sense is compared and contrasted with the tension within the Western culture between strains that place a premium on understanding and a deep commitment to the search for meaning in such philosophers as Habermas and Heidegger. The author explicates why such a commitment is essential to social research and how the focus on instrumental rationality that has defined modernity may be corrected by recentering the role of conscience on intellectual inquiry in general. To that end, both Chinese and Western cultures have plenty to offer both in terms of substantive insights and research methodologies. The book will be a crucial reference for scholars and students interested in Western philosophy, comparative philosophy and Chinese philosophy.

Book Social Work Values

Download or read book Social Work Values written by Noel Timms and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-10-30 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1983 Social Work Values is a sustained enquiry about the present situation of social work. It describes the treatment of social work values in the social work literature and in research, and pursues three distinct avenues towards an improvement on the present unsatisfactory treatment. First, the book introduces and encourages more philosophical reflection on the customary ‘lists’ of social work values. Second, it investigates three social work controversies: between the Charity Organisation Society and ‘the Socialists’; between the Functionalist and the Diagnostic schools of social work; and between ‘radical’ Marxists and ‘the rest’. Third, and finally it explores the treatment of ‘value’ and ‘values’ in economics, sociology, ordinary usage, and philosophy, in order to establish the distinctive elements to which the term ‘values’ is applied.
