Abstract

In this remarkable book Jeremy Rifkin tells the dramatic story of the extension of human empathy from the rise of the first great theological civilizations, to the ideological age that dominated the 18th and 19th centuries, the psychological era that characterized much of the 20th century and the emerging dramaturgical period of the 21st century. The result is a new social tapestry-The Empathic Civilization-woven from a wide range of fields. Rifkin argues that at the very core of the human story is the paradoxical relationship between empathy and entropy. At various times in history new energy regimes have converged with new communication revolutions, creating ever more complex societies that heightened empathic sensitivity and expanded human consciousness. But these increasingly complicated milieus require extensive energy use and speed us toward resource depletion. The irony is that our growing empathic awareness has been made possible by an ever-greater consumption of the Earth's resources, resulting in a dramatic deterioration of the health of the planet. If we are to avert a catastrophic destruction of the Earth's ecosystems, the collapse of the global economy and the possible extinction of the human race, we will need to change human consciousness itself-and in less than a generation.

Abstract

Based on research conducted in more than seventy countries over a forty-year span, Cultures and Organizations examines what drives people apart-when cooperationis so clearly in everyone's interest. With major new contributions from Michael Minkov's analysis of data from the World Values Survey, as well as an account ofthe evolution of cultures by Gert Jan Hofstede, this revised and expanded edition:Reveals the "moral circles" from which national societies are built and the unexamined rules by which people think,feel, and act. Explores how national cultures differ in the areas of inequality,assertiveness versus modesty, and tolerance for ambiguity.Explains how organizational cultures differ from nationalcultures-and how they can be managed.Analyzes stereotyping, differences in language, cultural rootsof the 2008 economic crisis, and other intercultural dynamicshttps://www.mhprofessional.com/9780071664189-usa-cultures-and-organizations-software-of-the-mind-third-edition-group

Abstract

Van het Glazen Huis van Studio Brussel tot het fonds van Bill Gates en zijn halve trouwboek: 50 jaar na de onafhankelijkheid van de Afrikaanse landen is de kritiek op de ontwikkelingshulp zeer groot. Ze werkt averechts en in plaats van aan onrechtvaardige structuren te tornen, houdt ze het dikwijls bij liefdadigheid die het geweten sust. Even groot is het contrast tussen de bescheiden millenniumdoelstellingen en de gigantische kapitalen die uit arme landen gesleept worden. Dit boek over ontwikkeling en ontwikkelingssamenwerking is bijzonder omdat het de kritiek au sérieux neemt maar tegelijk pleit voor méér solidariteit tussen Noord en Zuid. Hiervoor zal de sector zich wel moeten hervormen. Er zal ook politieke ruimte moeten komen om structurele veranderingen mogelijk te maken
