Описание: In an era of intensive development and globalization, the dynamically changing global economy creates new needs in both the theoretical approach to public management and in the practical discussion related to the perception of public management. According to emerging economic and social phenomena, there is a need for the design and operationalization of innovative solutions for managing public organizations based on trust. Issues dealing with public trust are hardly a novelty. Research to date, however, has failed to address questions on what changes need to be brought about throughout an organization so as to make it capable of creating and restoring trust within public organizations as well as in inter-organizational relationships. The current state in this respect is not known. Our book is an attempt to partially bridge an existing gap. In todays public management, two trends explicitly come to the fore. The first emphasizes creativity in problem solving, whereas the other involves increasing capability to establish relationships not only within the public sector, but also through collaboration with organizations from other sectors. Therefore, an organizational perspective on exploring public trust is gaining prominence. It covers both changes in public organizations themselves in other words, in their internal environment as well as changes spurred by dynamic shifts in the surroundings of the organizations and of the public management system as a whole. The main purpose of the monograph is to demonstrate that shaping relationships based on trust within and between organizations has a significant impact on the efficient functioning of public organizations. The studies presented are important in regards to the systematization of the concepts of public management and organizational change management in relation to effective collaboration between organizations; they arise from the need for management practice in the public sector. Therefore, their practical purpose is defined as formulating recommendations for managers in public organizations. Their accomplishment may foster the improved functioning of the public services. It seems that trust management can support the effectiveness of public organizations and contribute to their stable, sustainable functioning in a difficult, ever-changing environment. This book is addressed to all those interested in the issues pertaining to contemporary public management scholars and students, as well as practitioners in the management of public organizations. The goals of this monograph include: - Defining key trends in the theory and practice of public management, taking into account the aspect of public trust, defining key ontological entities and using them in strategic and operational public management, - presenting the new dimensions of public management, as seen by international authors of individual chapters, and the possibility of applying the solutions contained in the monograph. The editors and the authors hope that the combination of theory and practice presented will satisfy the needs of readers, in particular managers in public organization and public management consultants.

An exploration of the ethics of practical engineering through analyses of eighteen rich case studies
The Ethical Engineer explores ethical issues that arise in engineering practice, from technology transfer to privacy protection to whistle-blowing. Presenting key ethics concepts and real-life examples of engineering work, Robert McGinn illuminates the ethical dimension of engineering practice and helps students and professionals determine engineers' context-specific ethical responsibilities.
McGinn highlights the "ethics gap" in contemporary engineering--the disconnect between the meager exposure to ethical issues in engineering education and the ethical challenges frequently faced by engineers. He elaborates four "fundamental ethical responsibilities of engineers" (FEREs) and uses them to shed light on the ethical dimensions of diverse case studies, including ones from emerging engineering fields. The cases range from the Union Carbide pesticide plant disaster in India to the Google Street View project. After examining the extent to which the actions of engineers in the cases align with the FEREs, McGinn recapitulates key ideas used in analyzing the cases and spells out the main lessons they suggest. He identifies technical, social, and personal factors that induce or press engineers to engage in misconduct and discusses organizational, legal, and individual resources available to those interested in ethically responsible engineering practice.
Combining probing analysis and nuanced ethical evaluation of engineering conduct in its social and technical contexts, The Ethical Engineer will be invaluable to engineering students and professionals.
Meets the need for engineering-related ethics study
Elaborates four fundamental ethical responsibilities of engineers

Описание:
In Core Concepts in Contemporary Psychoanalysis, alongside its companionpiece Core Concepts in Classical Psychoanalysis, Morris N. Eagle asks: of the core concepts and formulations of psychoanalytic theory, which ones should be retained, which should be modified and in what ways, and which should be discarded?
The key concepts and issues explored in this book include:
Are transference interpretations necessary for positive therapeutic outcomes?
Are the analyst's countertransference reactions a reliable guide to the patient's unconscious mental states?
Is projective identification a coherent concept?
Psychoanalytic styles of thinking and writing.
Unlike other previous discussions of such concepts, this book systematically evaluates them in the light of conceptual critique as well as recent research-based evidence and empirical data.
Written with Eagle's piercing clarity of voice, Core Concepts in Contemporary Psychoanalysis challenges previously unquestioned psychoanalytic assumptions and will appeal to psychoanalysts, psychoanalytic psychotherapists, and anyone interested in integrating core psychoanalytic concepts, research, and theory with other disciplines including psychiatry, psychology, and social work.
