Download or read book Consumicidio written by Josep Mª Galí and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2013-11 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La conclusion de este trabajo de critica social es que las conductas de consumo en las sociedades de economia capitalista tienen su origen en un caracter social inconsciente y colectivo. Este caracter es el nucleo central de un sistema basado en una estimulacion sistemica del consumo, que conduce a la humanidad hacia una crisis global de sostenibilidad. Esta crisis tendra una gravedad dificil de imaginar, y pondra en jaque nuestro progreso y el bienestar a nivel global. La via mas eficaz para prevenir y amortiguar sus efectos es la desactivacion acelerada del caracter consumista. Esta desactivacion pasa por impulsar con fuerza procesos emergentes de cambio, en el ambito de la ciudadania, de la politica y de la gestion empresarial, cambios que ayudaran a conducir a la sociedad por la via de la liberacion de la alienacion consumista y a devolver a las personas no solo su condicion de ciudadanos eticos, sino tambien el poder politico que el sistema ha puesto en manos de las empresas y los mercados.
Download or read book tica y responsabilidad empresarial written by Ildefonso Camacho Laraña and published by Desclée De Brouwer. This book was released on 2013-12-02 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Muchos ponen en duda que la ética esté presente en la actividad empresarial. Pese a la existencia de cursos de ética en escuelas de negocios y facultades de ciencias de la administración, pese a la aparición de cada vez más revistas especializadas, asociaciones y congresos dedicados a temas de ética empresarial, persiste la sospecha de que la ética esté siendo utilizada para operaciones de lavado de imagen. Y es que esta proliferación del discurso ético empresarial contrasta con los hechos que salen a la luz una y otra vez en los medios de comunicación, con más frecuencia en los periodos de crisis económica. Naturalmente los autores de esta obra están convencidos de que es necesario desarrollar una ética del mundo de la empresa. Ofrecen este manual como base para el aprendizaje de la ética por parte de quienes se preparan para desarrollar su actividad profesional en la empresa y los negocios. No se busque en él un estudio exhaustivo de ningún tema particular, sino una primera aproximación en la que, lejos de intentar someter la realidad empresarial a criterios ajenos a la misma, se trata ante todo de descubrir la dimensión ética inherente a la actividad económica y empresarial. Desde ahí, se abre la discusión a las formas concretas de responsabilidad de la empresa ante los distintos grupos sociales que la afectan o son afectados por ella, sus stakeholders.Detrás de este trabajo está la experiencia de los cuatro autores que han dedicado una buena parte de su actividad universitaria a la docencia de la ética empresarial.Ildefonso Camacho Laraña ha enseñado Ética de la Empresa en la Facultad de Ciencias Económicas y Empresariales de ETEA, Córdoba. José Luis Fernández Fernández imparte la misma materia en la Universidad Pontificia Comillas de Madrid. Raúl González Fabre enseña Ética Empresarial, Ética del Marketing y Ética Financiera también en la Universidad Pontificia Comillas.Josep Miralles Massanés es profesor de Responsabilidad Social Corporativa y Sociología en ESADE, Barcelona.
Download or read book We the Corporations How American Businesses Won Their Civil Rights written by Adam Winkler and published by Liveright Publishing. This book was released on 2018-02-27 with total page 485 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: National Book Award for Nonfiction Finalist National Book Critics Circle Award for Nonfiction Finalist A New York Times Notable Book of the Year A Washington Post Notable Book of the Year A PBS “Now Read This” Book Club Selection Named one of the Best Books of the Year by the Economist and the Boston Globe A landmark exposé and “deeply engaging legal history” of one of the most successful, yet least known, civil rights movements in American history (Washington Post). In a revelatory work praised as “excellent and timely” (New York Times Book Review, front page), Adam Winkler, author of Gunfight, once again makes sense of our fraught constitutional history in this incisive portrait of how American businesses seized political power, won “equal rights,” and transformed the Constitution to serve big business. Uncovering the deep roots of Citizens United, he repositions that controversial 2010 Supreme Court decision as the capstone of a centuries-old battle for corporate personhood. “Tackling a topic that ought to be at the heart of political debate” (Economist), Winkler surveys more than four hundred years of diverse cases—and the contributions of such legendary legal figures as Daniel Webster, Roger Taney, Lewis Powell, and even Thurgood Marshall—to reveal that “the history of corporate rights is replete with ironies” (Wall Street Journal). We the Corporations is an uncompromising work of history to be read for years to come.

Download or read book Looking Reality in the Eye written by Museums Association of Saskatchewan and published by University of Calgary Press. This book was released on 2005 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Museums are often stereotyped as dusty storage facilities for ancient artefacts considered important by only a handful of scholars. Recently there has been effort on the part of some museumologists to reconsider the role and responsibilities of museums, art galleries and science centres as integral social institutions in their communities. The book attempts to point the way towards a sustainable future for museums by examining institutions that have found creative ways to attain a socially responsive model for cultural resource management. Accessible and engaging, the articles presented here are an excellent starting point for any discussion on what museums have been and what they should strive to be.
