Download or read book A Complexity Theory for Public Policy written by Göktuğ Morçöl and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-05-02 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Complexity theory has become popular in the natural and social sciences over the last few decades as a result of the advancements in our understanding of the complexities in natural and social phenomena. Concepts and methods of complexity theory have been applied by scholars of public affairs in North America and Europe, but a comprehensive framework for these applications is lacking. A Complexity Theory for Public Policy proposes a conceptual synthesis and sets a foundation for future developments and applications. In this book, Göktuğ Morçöl convincingly makes the case that complexity theory can help us understand better the self-organizational, emergent, and co-evolutionary characteristics of complex policy systems. In doing so, he discuss the epistemological implications of complexity theory and the methods complexity researchers use, and those methods they could use. As the complexity studies spread more around the world in the coming decades, the contents of this book will become appealing to larger audiences, particularly to scholars and graduate students in public affairs. The unique combination of synthesis and explanation of concepts and methods found in this book will serve as reference frames for future works.

Download or read book Darkest Truths of Black Gold written by Robert Palmer Smith and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2007-06 with total page 518 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over forty years ago the British Government warned the Italian Government; "Don't trust the Russians." The author was there. Today, forty years later, Newsweek echoes the same warning to any country that puts its energy sources at the political whim and fancy of Mr. Putin. And what of the warnings that the United States Government was given over sixty years ago that Mao-Ze-tung was not the 'second coming of the Messiah'? The author was there. And he seethed in rage and torment as he tried to sleep on the steel deck of a United States evacuation LST while he heard the 'Messiah's guns laying siege to Beijing. But all good things come to an end, even the bad ones, and meeting the Queen of England at the Prime Minister's residence, The Temple Trees, in Ceylon and issuing an invitation to His Royal Highness to play polo more than compensated the author for his first evacuation. But the reasons for his second evacuation from Cairo and his family's evacuation from Beirut are not quite as clear as he would like. Hearing about them might give the reader some thoughts about the difficulties faced by their fellow citizens who serve them abroad.
Download or read book Word Art written by Gwendolyn Beth and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2014-12-16 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pondering ? June 22, 2012, 8:15 a.m. What benefit are penned words if they are meaningless? If I am penning simply to promote me, I am dead within. Some books are informative and entertaining, while others are a waste of trees. What have you been moved to read lately? What are you searching for an answer to? What is your burning desire to learn or understand? When you think you have that answer, ask yourself why. Inner conflict is a pretty good indicator of spiritual warfare. Does the preceding statement raise any red flags for you? At times, when I?m experiencing conflict within, it has always resulted from my human nature and Satan battling my spirit. I have penned about much of this; I?ve no doubt there will be more.

Download or read book The Rhetoric of Reaction written by Albert O. Hirschman and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 1991-03-01 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With engaging wit and subtle irony, Albert Hirschman maps the diffuse and treacherous world of reactionary rhetoric in which conservative public figures, thinkers, and polemicists have been arguing against progressive agendas and reforms for the past two hundred years. He draws his examples from three successive waves of reactive thought that arose in response to the liberal ideas of the French Revolution and the Declaration of the Rights of Man, to democratization and the drive toward universal suffrage in the nineteenth century, and to the welfare state in our own century. In each case he identifies three principal arguments invariably used--the theses of perversity, futility, and jeopardy. He illustrates these propositions by citing writers across the centuries from Alexis de Tocqueville to George Stigler, Herbert Spencer to Jay Forrester, Edmund Burke to Charles Murray. Finally, in a lightning turnabout, he shows that progressives are frequently apt to employ closely related rhetorical postures, which are as biased as their reactionary counterparts.

Download or read book Romans written by R. C. Sproul and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2009-10-01 with total page 517 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sproul's sermons at St. Andrew's Chapel are the foundation of these never-before-published expositions on Paul's epistle to the Romans. Chrysostom had it read aloud to him once a week. Augustine, Luther, and Wesley all came to assured faith through its impact. The Reformers saw it as the God-given key to understanding the whole of Scripture. Throughout church history the study of the book of Romans has been pivotal to understanding Christian life and doctrine. Convinced that "Paul's fullest, grandest, most comprehensive statement of the gospel" is just as vital today, R. C. Sproul delivered nearly sixty sermons on Romans from October 2005 to April 2007 at St. Andrew's Chapel, where he has pastored for more than a decade. These never-before-published, passage-by-passage expositions will enrich any study of this weighty epistle. Part of the St. Andrew's Expositional Commentaries series.
Download or read book ATM Sex written by Alan Lord and published by Guernica Editions. This book was released on 2011 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ATM SEX is a furious collection of satirical sketches and fearless social commentary that manages to skewer everyone and everything under the sun, often employing the absurd lingo of advertising. It makes fun of the doomed dysfunctional interplay between the sexes, and kicks the ass of our crackpot lifestyles, hysterical consumerism, and overreliance on technogeekery and media-drooling, which are supposed to solve our pathetic lives dominated by tragic consumerism, arrogant gadget-diddling, and rampant narcissism. In Alan Lord, we have finally found an unapologetic un-Canadian over-the-topper, willing to throttle the myriad squawkboxes of our out-of-control dumbed-down zeitgeist.
