Sinopse

Heirship and Equity explores how inheritance laws and practices impact wealth inequality and social mobility in our world. The book examines the legal concept of heirship, looking at its historical evolution and variations across different legal systems, and also investigates the socio-economic consequences of inherited wealth.

 
Did you know inheritance laws often reinforce existing inequalities, challenging the idea that inheritance is simply about individual property rights? Another interesting aspect is the concentration of wealth globally, making wealth transfer mechanisms a key factor in societal stratification.

 
The book argues that current inheritance laws, often seen as neutral, can exacerbate inequalities. It begins by introducing the legal fundamentals of heirship and various inheritance systems, then delves into the socio-economic implications of inherited wealth on income inequality and social mobility, supported by statistical analyses.

 
Further chapters analyze legal frameworks across different countries, focusing on inheritance tax systems and testamentary freedom. The book concludes with policy reform suggestions to promote more equitable wealth distribution, offering recommendations for policymakers and legal professionals.

Sightings - a collection of poetry

Gillian Bickley

GILLIAN BICKLEY was born and educated in the UK and has lived mainly in Hong Kong since 1970. The poems in Sightings are on Hong Kong, European and personal subjects, accessible to many readers, both young and old. They consider what it is like to be a human being in this modern world, drawing inspiration mainly from the people whom the writer has encountered, especially in Hong Kong.
An academic turned full-time writer, editor and publisher, Gillian invites readers and listeners to share her enjoyment of city and country, simple and complex ideas and events, and her empathy with the largely innocent people she has come across. In her trademark transparent style, she draws on events, happenings, creatures, artefacts and objects she has seen, and on places and people she has experienced in Asia, Europe, North America and Africa, as well as on stimulating and memorable books she has read.
"She has made use of everyday life situations and turned them into life lessons. Sightings inspires us to slow down and taste the sense of the city."— Ma Kwai Hung, Hong Kong.
"The poems in Sightings are witty, poignant, full of memorable images and insights and a total delight." — Professor Ken Pickering
"Sightings conveys playfulness and ironic humour. The writer displays, 'a strong ethical sense and a constant and engaging lyricism'." —Marion Bethel, Bahamian poet
Bickley has, "a talent for turning the stuff of ordinary life into poetry. She continually surprises and delights by making fresh connections between seemingly disparate situations". — Mrs Margaret Clarke, Oxfordshire.
"Gillian Bickley walks around the world with her eyes open, relishing the phenomena she passes".— Harry Guest, Honorary University Fellow, University of Exeter, UK (from his 'Preface' to Sightings).

Learnership - Raising the status...

James Anderson

We don't have a teaching problem in our schools; we have a learning problem.Today, we understand quality teaching better than ever. We have skilful teachers doing a great job in our classrooms. But when we have quality teaching and are still not achieving the results we're looking for, it's a sign that we don't have a teaching problem. What we have is a learning problem.Ultimately, learning is not the product of teaching, it is the product of the activity of learners. Too many of our students are passive learners who avoide challenges, failt ot act on feedback, or who waste effort instead of investing in it. To prepare students to not only succeed in school but also to have the agency they need to succeed in life, we must lead them to become skilful learners. In his fifth book, James Anderson unveils the concept of Learnership, which transforms learning from an act to an art. Within this book, you will learn how to:- evaluate the current level of learnership in your school using the Learnership Diagnostic tool- foster a culture of growth that sets students up for success in both school and life- apply the Mindset Continuum to nurture a growth mindset in your students- harness deep insights into the pivotal role of challenges, Habits of Mind, mistakes, feedback and effort in cultivating Learnershipdrive a Learnership program in your school. If you are ready to show your learners how to get more out of every learning situation, and get better at getting better, it's time to embrace Learnership.

The Classic Collection of Soren...

Søren Kierkegaard

Soren Kierkegaard was a Danish theologian, philosopher, poet, social critic, and religious author who is widely considered to be the first existentialist philosopher.He wrote critical texts on organized religion, Christianity, morality, ethics, psychology, and the philosophy of religion, displaying a fondness for metaphor, irony, and parables. Much of his philosophical work deals with the issues of how one lives as a "single individual", giving priority to concrete human reality over abstract thinking and highlighting the importance of personal choice and commitment.He was against literary critics who defined idealist intellectuals and philosophers of his time, and thought that Swedenborg, Hegel, Fichte, Schelling, Schlegel, and Hans Christian Andersen were all "understood" far too quickly by "scholars".Contents:Fear and TremblingPhilosophical FragmentsSickness Unto Death
