Beschreibung

Argentinian Time Culture explores the unique ways Argentina perceives and uses time, revealing how deeply ingrained cultural values shape daily life. It highlights how social timing differs significantly from more punctual cultures, influencing everything from late-night dinners to flexible work schedules. One intriguing aspect is the "sobremesa," the lingering at the table after a meal, emphasizing social bonds over strict schedules. The book argues that rather than being about inefficiency, Argentinian time culture reflects a complex system of social prioritization rooted in historical, social, and economic realities.

 
The book examines the historical roots of these customs, influenced by European immigration and indigenous traditions, and how they manifest in contemporary society. It progresses through sections that explore the core concepts of social timing, the historical evolution of Argentinian time perception, and the contemporary manifestations of these values in various settings.

 
Through historical documents, sociological studies, and personal narratives, the book provides a comprehensive portrayal of Argentina's cultural identity and offers valuable insights for cross-cultural communication, international business, and a deeper understanding of Latin American societies.

    This important essay by the French Catholic philosopher articulates the foundation for his influential interpretations of Thomas Aquinas. Known for his influential writings that brought fresh relevance to the work of Thomas Aquinas, Jacques Maritain was one of the most important Catholic philosophers of the twentieth century. Although An Essay on Christian Philosophy is not generally considered to be among his major works, it is, in a sense, the key to unlocking his massive synthesis of modern Thomism. This provocative essay reveals the inner springs of Maritain’s ideas concerning mankind’s relationship to God.  This lucid translation by Edward H. Flannery includes a glossary of technical terms, making it even more accessible for the general reader.

    An action-oriented approach for businesses to solve the world’s most urgent social problems — and benefit from doing so.
    		 
    More than a year into a global pandemic, profit and shareholder value are no longer the primary metric of business success. Customers, shareholders, and communities are demanding that companies do good, do more, and do better. In Change for Good, Paul Klein shows how companies must move beyond what he calls “corporate social responsibility light” and demonstrate how they can help solve social problems that have been defined as UN Sustainable Development Goals.
    		 
    Change for Good is a new system for making social change through business that reflects Paul’s experience over the last 35 years. One of the core principles of Change for Good is including people with lived experience of social problems in identifying promising solutions and collaborating to bring these solutions to life. This methodology can create impactful and sustainable social change in society in ways that aren’t possible when executives make decisions in their boardrooms that are intended to impact the lives of vulnerable people.
    		 
    Through personal experiences, case studies, and practical tools, Change for Good will inspire readers and their organizations to make the shift from a passive social responsibility to taking action to help solve the world’s most pressing social problems.

    Mourning Bands On is an accessible journey into the hypersensitive world of today’s American
     law enforcement. The reader is brought into the law enforcement world through an introduction to the history, function, and development of the American police model. With an understanding of policing’s role in American society, the reader is then immersed into the raucous and 
    contentious cultural upheaval which American policing is currently experiencing.
     
    Using well-known examples, the reader is challenged to consider how American culture is affected by critical incidents and the portrayal of those events in our media intensive world. The reader will review the cases in the deaths of Trayvon Martin, Michael Brown, Breonna Taylor, and George Floyd, as well as others. The cases are presented as a narrative of events supported by the findings and legal conclusions of the U.S. Department of Justice, Federal Bureau of Investigation. Each incident is reviewed with a view of how the incident effected American society and brought change to American culture and thus policing.
