Servant-Leadership, Feminism, and Gender Well-Being: How Leaders Transcend Global Inequities through Hope, Unity, and Love - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Jiying Song (editor), Joe Walsh (editor), Kae Reynolds (editor), Jennifer Tilghman-Havens (editor), Shann Ray Ferch (editor), Larry C Spears (editor) خلاصه: In a world where leaders and organizations face global pandemics and power conflicts, gender dualism still prevails, and gender stereotyping and the glass ceiling continue to affect humanity's conceptualizations of leadership. How can we integrate the lost aspects of ourselves, often socialized by gender, so as to recover wholeness? How can we discern and develop the feminine and masculine within every leader? Servant-Leadership, Feminism, and Gender Well-Being offers grace, strength, and hope by providing evidence of servant-leaders crossing gender boundaries and integrating gendered traits and behaviors. Feminist ways of knowing, honoring both feminine and masculine giftedness, deepen the holistic foundation of servant-leadership. By integrating female perspectives with male perspectives, a paradigm shift in leadership theory through avenues inherent to servant-leadership can move organizations from hierarchy-driven, rules-based, and authoritative models to value-driven, follower-oriented, and participative models.
Making Space for Justice: Social Movements, Collective Imagination, and Political Hope - Original PDF
Making Space for Justice: Social Movements, Collective Imagination, and Political Hope - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Michele Moody-Adams خلاصه: From nineteenth-century abolitionism to Black Lives Matter today, progressive social movements have been at the forefront of social change. Yet it is seldom recognized that such movements have not only engaged in political action but also posed crucial philosophical questions about the meaning of justice and about how the demands of justice can be met. Michele Moody-Adams argues that anyone who is concerned with the theory or the practice of justice―or both―must ask what can be learned from social movements. Drawing on a range of compelling examples, she explores what they have shown about the nature of justice as well as what it takes to create space for justice in the world. Moody-Adams considers progressive social movements as wellsprings of moral inquiry and as agents of social change, drawing out key philosophical and practical principles. Social justice demands humane regard for others, combining compassionate concern and robust respect. Successful movements have drawn on the transformative power of imagination, strengthening the motivation to pursue justice and to create the political institutions and social policies that can sustain it by inspiring political hope. Making Space for Justice contends that the insights arising from social movements are critical to bridging the gap between discerning theory and effective practice―and should be transformative for political thought as well as for political activism.
Pastoral Care for the Incarcerated: Hope Deferred, Humanity Diminished? - Original PDF
Pastoral Care for the Incarcerated: Hope Deferred, Humanity Diminished? - Original PDF
نویسندگان: David Kirk Beedon خلاصه: This book explores and formulates a response to the question: How best can those held in modern systems of mass incarceration be cared for pastorally when many prisons diminish both hope and humanity? Employing the multi-disciplinary approach of practical theology, this ethnographic enquiry will be a guide for chaplains and all who strive to embody compassion wherever human flourishing is undermined. The book’s structure follows the pastoral cycle method from practical theology, remaining context-based and practice-focused throughout. Pastoral insights are illustrated with personal, poetic and movingly reflective material drawn from the lived experience of indeterminately sentenced men who did not know if or when they would be ever released. The author, a former prison chaplain, remains reflexively and humanely present in the text, modelling the profound humane regard and pastoral presence that is central to this work. This book will take the reader deeply into penal spaces on a journey of both compassion and hope.

The Rebel and the Kingdom: The True Story of the Secret Mission to Overthrow the North Korean Regime - PDF
نویسندگان: Bradley Hope خلاصه: Once his family had moved north to San Diego, Adrian had spent most of his life in Chula Vista just to the city’s south. The area had a distinctly low-key vibe: palm trees, strip malls, and the beach. Adrian had a high-octane personality, but he would occasionally let his SoCal origins slip through, talking in the laid-back, overly familiar manner of a Chula Vista “bro.” “Ah, the glorious life of a bachelor,” he wrote on his Xanga page one afternoon while at Yale. “Sitting on a couch watching dvds alone, eating out of a can sigh.” Those around Adrian back then recall a confidence about him that was offset by a strong sense of empathy. Fellow students would remember for years his ability to notice one person whose voice was being drowned out by louder students, taking them aside afterward and letting them know he heard what they were trying to say. And even from a young age, Adrian had seemed to hunger for something bigger than the chilled-out suburb he called home. Together with his best friend in high school, who would go on to become a key member of Adrian’s clandestine work, he’d speak with fervor about civil rights leaders like Martin Luther King Jr.
Blessed Motherhood, Bitter Fruit: Nelly Roussel and the Politics of Female Pain in Third Republic France - Original PDF
Blessed Motherhood, Bitter Fruit: Nelly Roussel and the Politics of Female Pain in Third Republic France - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Elinor Accampo خلاصه: One of French feminism's most courageous public figures has received relatively little in-depth mention until now: Nelly Roussel's crusade gave women control over their own bodies and sexuality and Blessed Motherhood Bitter Fruit reveals her sacrifices and accomplishments during the process. Roussel was an actress and beauty who defined parameters of the women's movement which would not be realized for over seventy years: she was the first feminist spokeswoman for birth control in Europe and her lectures, essays, and speeches promoted then-radical ways of thinking. Her biographer does an outstanding job of linking Roussel's life and thoughts to her times and the evolving history of the women's movement as a whole, making it a top pick for any definitive women's history collection.

World War II 3_ biographies - Original PDF
نویسندگان: George Feldman خلاصه: World War II: Biographies presents the life stories of thirtyone individuals who played key roles in World War II. The many noteworthy individuals involved in the war could not all be profiled in a single-volume work. Stories were selected to give readers a wide perspective on the war and the people who played a part in it, including political and military leaders, enlisted men, and civilians. World War II: Biographies includes readily recognizable figures such as U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt and Nazi leader Adolf Hitler, as well as lesser-known individuals such as Franz Jaggerstatter, an Austrian conscientious objector killed by the Nazis for refusing to serve in the German army, and Dorothy Thompson, an American journalist who wrote against Hitler’s political and social policies in the years before the war

El estudiante de las hierbas. Diario del botánico Juan Isern Batlló y Carrera (1821-1866). Miembro de la Expedición Científica del Pacífico (1862-1866) - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Juan Isern Batlló y Carrera; Paloma Blanco Fernández de Caleya; Dolores Rodríguez Veiga Isern; Pilar Rodríguez Veiga Isern خلاصه: Es un motivo de alegría y un buen síntoma de preocupación por la ciencia el poder prologar, por fin, el diario del botánico Juan Isern Batlló, miembro destacado de la Comisión Científica del Pacífico (1862-1866) y mártir romántico de la ciencia española. Además, creo que ha sido un acierto de las autoras, dos de ellas descendientes del ilustre naturalista, el dar a conocer dicho diario de forma novelada, aunque ajustada a la realidad de una manera escrupulosa. Resulta conmovedora la imagen que uno puede representarse del botánico, en el último momento de su corta vida, recordando su propia trayectoria vital, desde aquel pequeño pueblo de Setcases hasta los momentos más difíciles e intensos de su viaje por el río de las Amazonas. La tarea que se han propuesto las autoras del libro no era fácil, ya que, según creo recordar, los apuntes de Isern conservados en el Real Jardín Botánico eran algo caóticos, en tanto que los fragmentos del diario eran excesivamente botánicos y escuetos, algo que hace merecedora de elogios la obra emprendida con la publicación que tenemos ante nosotros.
