Book excerpt: A estratégia da Comunicação Aberta concretiza-se quando o ser humano encontra, em si mesmo, as respostas para os dilemas que o atormentam e o impedem de evoluir; quando o profissional percebe a força empreendedora da sua vocação e incrível potencial para o aperfeiçoamento contínuo; quando a empresa volta-se para o seu corpo funcional, buscando a fonte segura de soluções para o seu crescimento sustentado; quando as lideranças políticas passam a escutar os cidadãos, a fim de fundamentar ações (políticas públicas) e medidas em prol do progresso de todos, sem nenhum tipo de exclusão. É pelo caminho da comunicação que evoluímos, com desenvoltura, no ambiente organizacional, na sociedade e, principalmente, em nosso universo interior. Editora Manole

This book was released on 2013-08-24 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: O medo, estado psicológico e mecanismo natural, está inscrito de forma indelével no mais profundo do nosso ser, mas, por força da aprendizagem e da cultura, pode sofrer alterações nas suas formas de expressão e no seu significado. Quando saudável, pode ser uma chamada para a ação, mas, quando se torna crónico, mesmo que não patológico, afeta a nossa capacidade de desenvolvimento e crescimento pessoal, a nossa relação com os outros e com o mundo. Tendo como base esta preocupação e, como pressupostos, que o homem é um todo, a realidade é múltipla e complexa e a subjetividade é característica essencial do comportamento humano, este trabalho assume e incorpora a necessidade de encarar a pesquisa nas ciências sociais e humanas com um ato criador.

Download or read book The BRICS and the Future of Global Order written by Oliver Stuenkel and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2020-02-03 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The transformation of the BRIC acronym from an investment term into a household name of international politics and into a semi-institutionalized political outfit (called BRICS, with a capital ‘S’), is one of the defining developments in international politics in the past decades. While the concept is now commonly used in the general public debate and international media, there has not yet been a comprehensive and scholarly analysis of the history of the BRICS term. The BRICS and the Future of Global Order, Second Edition offers a definitive reference history of the BRICS as a term and as an institution—a chronological narrative and analytical account of the BRICS concept from its inception in 2001 to the political grouping it is today. In addition, it analyzes what the rise of powers like Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa means for the future of global order. Will the BRICS countries seek to establish a parallel system with its own distinctive set of rules, institutions, and currencies of power, rejecting key tenets of liberal internationalism, are will they seek to embrace the rules and norms that define today’s Western-led order?

Book excerpt: The first time we met was at a party. Your ex arrived to show off the person he'd left you for last month, and you asked me to pretend to be your date. I was more than happy to help. You were attractive, smart and witty--and that kiss we shared? It left me wanting you for days. The second time we met was in my office on campus where we were both surprised to discover you were the new master’s degree student in poetry that I would be working with. You promised to be professional. I did no such thing. The late nights and intense study sessions spent alongside you majorly throw me off my game. I want you, and I fight with myself daily over this fact. I know I'm crass, that my sexual innuendos and dirty mouth annoy you, but I live for those two bright spots of color in your cheeks. If that's the only reaction I can get out of you, I'll gladly take it. You hate Mondays so every Monday I slip an anonymous poem into your bag and your smile gets me through the week. I think I'm falling for you, and I know it's wrong. I know that I'm only supposed to be your adviser and nothing more, but here's the thing. I think you're falling for me too. xo, Zach

Download or read book Internationalism or Extinction written by Noam Chomsky and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-11-27 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his new book, Noam Chomsky writes cogently about the threats to planetary survival that are of growing alarm today. The prospect of human extinction emerged after World War II, the dawn of a new era scientists now term the Anthropocene. Chomsky uniquely traces the duality of existential threats from nuclear weapons and from climate change—including how the concerns emerged and evolved, and how the threats can interact with one another. The introduction and accompanying interviews place these dual threats in a framework of unprecedented corporate global power which has overtaken nation states’ ability to control the future and preserve the planet. Chomsky argues for the urgency of international climate and arms agreements, showing how global popular movements are mobilizing to force governments to meet this unprecedented challenge to civilization’s survival.
