Download or read book Accidental Feminism written by Swethaa S. Ballakrishnen and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2021-01-12 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exploring the unintentional production of seemingly feminist outcomes In India, elite law firms offer a surprising oasis for women within a hostile, predominantly male industry. Less than 10 percent of the country’s lawyers are female, but women in the most prestigious firms are significantly represented both at entry and partnership. Elite workspaces are notorious for being unfriendly to new actors, so what allows for aberration in certain workspaces? Drawing from observations and interviews with more than 130 elite professionals, Accidental Feminism examines how a range of underlying mechanisms—gendered socialization and essentialism, family structures and dynamics, and firm and regulatory histories—afford certain professionals egalitarian outcomes that are not available to their local and global peers. Juxtaposing findings on the legal profession with those on elite consulting firms, Swethaa Ballakrishnen reveals that parity arises not from a commitment to create feminist organizations, but from structural factors that incidentally come together to do gender differently. Simultaneously, their research offers notes of caution: while conditional convergence may create equality in ways that more targeted endeavors fail to achieve, “accidental” developments are hard to replicate, and are, in this case, buttressed by embedded inequalities. Ballakrishnen examines whether gender parity produced without institutional sanction should still be considered feminist. In offering new ways to think about equality movements and outcomes, Accidental Feminism forces readers to critically consider the work of intention in progress narratives.
Download or read book Centrist Anti Establishment Parties and Their Struggle for Survival written by Sarah Engler and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2023-10-19 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do parties survive when newness is their only selling point? This scholarly volume explores the most successful group of new political parties in Central and Eastern Europe: centrist anti-establishment parties (CAPs). These parties often claim to be neither 'left nor right', strongly criticize the political establishment, and instead promise 'corruption-free' politics. Initially extremely successful, many CAPs do not survive more than a few consecutive electionswhile others do endure. As the first book-length study on this type of party, Sarah Engler explores this question and focuses on CAPs' electoral strategies after their first elections. It derivesthree strategies of survival that lead to more sustainable electoral support: a reframed protest strategy, an anti-corruption strategy, and a mainstream strategy. Combining quantitative data from an original expert survey with qualitative evidence from elite interviews with MPs, party officials and anti-corruption experts, the author demonstrates that CAPs only survive when they abandon their initial strategy of pure protest. While strategic change is necessary for partysurvival, several failed attempts at transformation show that it is not sufficient. Ideology, seemingly irrelevant to CAPs' initial successes, eventually determines CAPs' fates. Engler also examines howthese findings have implications for other European countries.Comparative Politics is a series for researchers, teachers, and students of political science that deals with contemporary government and politics. Global in scope, books in the series are characterized by a stress on comparative analysis and strong methodological rigour.

Download or read book HE MUST INCREASE I MUST DECREASE A Journey To Restoration Identity And Purpose written by Jeff Cropper and published by Covenant Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-08-10 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Upon calling His twelve disciples, Jesus declared just two words to each: “Follow me.” He gave no explanation as to where or for what reason. Simply an invitation to go, by faith, on a journey with Him. An adventure that would change them forever. One that would restore relationship with their Father, establish true identity in Him, and reveal His purpose for their lives. Our Lord continues to extend that same offer to each and every one of those that have been given to Him by His Father. The words on these pages share such a journey and its life-altering revelations and impact. Come along and witness what Jesus has for each of us who will accept His invite and follow Him. Eleven of the twelve disciples did exactly that, and they were transformed into powerful ambassadors for and servants of the kingdom of God. We can be as well.

Download or read book Competitive Strategy written by Michael E. Porter and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2008-06-30 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now nearing its sixtieth printing in English and translated into nineteen languages, Michael E. Porter's Competitive Strategy has transformed the theory, practice, and teaching of business strategy throughout the world. Electrifying in its simplicity—like all great breakthroughs—Porter’s analysis of industries captures the complexity of industry competition in five underlying forces. Porter introduces one of the most powerful competitive tools yet developed: his three generic strategies—lowest cost, differentiation, and focus—which bring structure to the task of strategic positioning. He shows how competitive advantage can be defined in terms of relative cost and relative prices, thus linking it directly to profitability, and presents a whole new perspective on how profit is created and divided. In the almost two decades since publication, Porter's framework for predicting competitor behavior has transformed the way in which companies look at their rivals and has given rise to the new discipline of competitor assessment. More than a million managers in both large and small companies, investment analysts, consultants, students, and scholars throughout the world have internalized Porter's ideas and applied them to assess industries, understand competitors, and choose competitive positions. The ideas in the book address the underlying fundamentals of competition in a way that is independent of the specifics of the ways companies go about competing. Competitive Strategy has filled a void in management thinking. It provides an enduring foundation and grounding point on which all subsequent work can be built. By bringing a disciplined structure to the question of how firms achieve superior profitability, Porter’s rich frameworks and deep insights comprise a sophisticated view of competition unsurpassed in the last quarter-century.

Download or read book Nonmarket Strategy in Japan written by Eric Romann and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-10-29 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on foreign firms’ nonmarket strategies and lobbying in Japan, in which important readjustments in traditional power configuration have taken place, giving more leeway to various stakeholders. The author analyzes in-depth how firms deploy their influence in a country that used to be dubbed "the castle" due to its difficulty of access, a theme on which minimal information currently exists. As professionals acknowledge, and contrary to what is usually assumed, similarities with the United States or the European Union outweigh local differences that though must still be addressed are no longer insuperable. With globalization and the rise of economic interdependence, it is now easier for foreign players with valuable assets to be part of the game. A significant feature of the country is the weight of collective action and the reluctance towards individual or direct lobbying as reflected in the perceptions and firms’ organization. The consequence for foreign firms is that they are often compelled to circumvent with soft strategies. This book will take the reader over 20 cases that display a striking multiformity and highlight conditions for success for foreign businesses in Japan and will be of interest to scholars as well as practitioners.
