Book excerpt: Over time, corporations have engaged in an aggressive campaign to dramatically enlarge their political and commercial speech and religious rights through strategic litigation and extensive lobbying. At the same time, many large firms have sought to limit their social responsibilities. For the most part, courts have willingly followed corporations down this path. But interestingly, corporations are meeting resistance from many quarters including from customers, investors, and lawmakers. Corporate Citizen? explores this resistance and offers reforms to support these new understandings of the corporation in contemporary society.
Download or read book Liberal Politics and Public Faith written by Kevin Vallier and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-06-13 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the eyes of many, liberalism requires the aggressive secularization of social institutions, especially public media and public schools. The unfortunate result is that many Americans have become alienated from the liberal tradition because they believe it threatens their most sacred forms of life. This was not always the case: in American history, the relation between liberalism and religion has often been one of mutual respect and support. In Liberal Politics and Public Faith: Beyond Separation, Kevin Vallier attempts to reestablish mutual respect by developing a liberal political theory that avoids the standard liberal hostility to religious voices in public life. He claims that the dominant form of academic liberalism, public reason liberalism, is far friendlier to religious influences in public life than either its proponents or detractors suppose. The best interpretation of public reason, convergence liberalism, rejects the much-derided "privatization" of religious belief, instead viewing religious contributions to politics as a resource for liberal political institutions. Many books reject privatization, Liberal Politics and Public Faith: Beyond Separation is unique in doing so on liberal grounds.

Download or read book Democratic Authority and the Separation of Church and State written by Robert Audi and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2011-06-01 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Democratic states must protect the liberty of citizens and must accommodate both religious liberty and cultural diversity. This democratic imperative is one reason for the increasing secularity of most modern democracies. Religious citizens, however, commonly see a secular state as unfriendly toward religion. This book articulates principles that enable secular governments to protect liberty in a way that judiciously separates church and state and fully respects religious citizens. After presenting a brief account of the relation between religion and ethics, the book shows how ethics can be independent of religion-evidentially autonomous in a way that makes moral knowledge possible for secular citizens--without denying religious sources a moral authority of their own. With this account in view, it portrays a church-state separation that requires governments not only to avoid religious establishment but also to maintain religious neutrality. The book shows how religious neutrality is related to such issues as teaching evolutionary biology in public schools, the legitimacy of vouchers to fund private schooling, and governmental support of "faith-based initiatives." The final chapter shows how the proposed theory of religion and politics incorporates toleration and forgiveness as elements in flourishing democracies. Tolerance and forgiveness are described; their role in democratic citizenship is clarified; and in this light a conception of civic virtue is proposed. Overall, the book advances the theory of liberal democracy, clarifies the relation between religion and ethics, provides distinctive principles governing religion in politics, and provides a theory of toleration for pluralistic societies. It frames institutional principles to guide governmental policy toward religion; it articulates citizenship standards for political conduct by individuals; it examines the case for affirming these two kinds of standards on the basis of what, historically, has been called natural reason; and it defends an account of toleration that enhances the practical application of the ethical framework both in individual nations and in the international realm.
Download or read book The Rule of Law and the Separation of Powers written by Richard Bellamy and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 596 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rule of law is frequently invoked in political debate, yet rarely defined with any precision. Some employ it as a synonym for democracy, others for the subordination of the legislature to a written constitution and its judicial guardians. It has been seen as obedience to the duly-recognised government, a form of governing through formal and general rule-like laws and the rule of principle. Given this diversity of view, it is perhaps unsurprising that certain scholars have regarded the concept as no more than a self-congratulatory rhetorical device. This collection of eighteen key essays from jurists, political theorists and public law political scientists, aims to explore the role law plays in the political system. The introduction evaluates their arguments. The first eleven essays identify the standard features associated with the rule of law. These are held to derive less from any characteristics of law per se than from a style of legislating and judging that gives equal consideration to all citizens. The next seven essays then explore how different ways of separating and dispersing power contribute to this democratic style of rule by forcing politicians and judges alike to treat people as equals and regard none as above the law.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses human resource management in PSUs. The aim was to explore the Human Resource Policies of the employee separation of employees in PSUs in India. The book consists of a compilation of six chapters and an extended summary. The study in the book is based on a combination of multiple, comparative, and single-case studies of PSUs in India. The core studies were conducted by the author at 29 PSUs in 40 Cities of 18 States, The results indicate central challenges regarding HR Policies on employee separation by Termination, Suspension, Dismissal, Retirement, Voluntary Retirement Scheme, Layoff, Resignations, Non-Promotion, Physical Disability, besides other policies. The increased responsibility and pressured work environment for PSU’s employees/workers. This study was aimed at identifying certain variables related to HR policies on employee separation in PSUs in India. The study determines the effect of HR policies on the satisfaction level of employees as well as legal compliances with the impact of gender, experience, age-wise difference, type of separation. The population of the study was HR Directors, General Managers, HR Managers, and employees working in PSUs in India. There were 14100 male and female PSU employees who responded to the author. The questionnaire instrument was used for data collection from various PSUs, and the HR policies assessment was done. The author used it after getting the formal permissions from the PSUs. The study addressed the following specific objectives; the first was to survey HR Policies of employees of PSUs, the second was to study and determine the different types of HR Policies related to employee separation in PSUs in India, and the third was to survey the behavior of employees towards Voluntary /Non-voluntary Separation. The study specifically discussed the hypothesis of study mainly classified into seven hypothesis such as (1) HR Policies Related - There was no significant difference of perception about HR Policies between PSU regular and separated employee (2) HR Policies and Discrimination/ Harassment related - There was no significant difference of perception between regular and separated employees so far as HR Policies of PSU and Discrimination/ Harassment at PSU (3) Employee Separation related - There was no significant difference between regular and separated employees about HR Policies and employee separation at PSU. The author had used a comprehensive and stratified questionnaire distributed to about 15000 persons consisting of workers, supervisors, officials, and managers of PSUs, out of which, only 14275 were received back duly filled, the remaining didn’t respond in spite of repeated visits. The 175 questionnaires were rejected due to incomplete and wrong answers by respondents. There were 14100 valid questionnaires that were found valid for the purpose of the study. There were total three questionnaires, which were: (1) ESS1 - What employees Say (For regular and separated employees of PSUs) (2) ESS2 - What PSUs Says (For Director/Managers of HR/Legal Dept. of PSU), (3) ESS3 - What Govt. Dept. Says (For Govt. Dept. of Public Enterprise). The statistical tools used for analysis include Frequency, Percentages, Mean, Standard Deviation (S.D.), T-Test, and Chi-Square Test. The author is sure that the study was a fact-finding and pioneer, and motivates and stimulates further researches in this field. I wrote this book especially for Director (Human Resource), Human Resource Managers, which will certainly help them to understand the various legal aspects of HR Policies related to Employee Separation to enhance the productivity and efficiency of performance of employees in the organizations.
