Описание:

My Way is a compilation of 365 daily e-mails Colonel Casado sent his sons, Ben and Alex. He had set a goal of sending them a daily e-mail for 365 days, and after about a month, his wife asked him to stop sending them because the boys werent reading them. He asked his youngest son, Alex, if he wanted him to stop, and Alex said no. Thats when he knew he was on to something.

Looking for a good way to communicate with his boys in our high-speed, super-busy digital world, he thought a daily e-mail might be a great way to at least let them know he was thinking of them and at best share some helpful insights and experiences.

After thirty-six-plus years of leadership and management experience as a group and squadron commander in the military and a senior leader in the civilian world, the daily passages centered on those things Colonel Casado knew bestleadership, motivation, goal setting, etc. My Way is based on his personal values, military and civilian leadership experience, and a desire to help develop current and future leaders.

My Way is Colonel Casados first book but hopefully not his last. After a while, it became apparent that My Way could help others and thus began the journey of turning the passages into a book.

After achieving the 365-day goal, he found he had over 64,000 words on paper. My Way is a fun and very diverse compilation of passages on a variety of issues falling into the realm of self-help, leadership, management, motivation, parenting, advice, etc. and in the hopes of helping others; here you have it

Lead on

Описание:

Citizenship in a Transnational Canada offers a distinct look at the prospect of rethinking citizenship in a contested world of shifting narratives, evolving models, ongoing challenges, and future possibilities. The book’s central theme embodies a critical awareness that we no longer live in a national citizenship world but rather in one reorganized around the emergent realities, discourses, and practices of a postcitizenship world that is reshaping how we think, talk, and do citizenship. A new vocabulary is thus required for thinking, talking, and doing citizenship if there is any hope of formulating a narrative consistent with a world of posts, trans, and isms.

The book is also premised on the assumption that the citizenship concept is experiencing an identity crisis ("what it is?") and a crisis of confidence ("what should it be doing?") in an increasingly diverse, changing, and complex world, disenchanted with the certainties of the past although unsure of what lies in store. New citizenship narratives and practices are emerging that not only challenge the conventional citizenship model of a single nation-state within a territorially bounded framework but also capitalize on the complexities of transmigrant identities across a networked web of transnational linkages, postnational realities, and a postmulticultural world of diverse-diversities. No less salient are the postcolonial politics that accompany the politicization of Indigenous peoples’ citizenship arrangements commensurate with their constitutional status as "the (de facto) sovereigns within."

The paradoxes and possibilities that accompany the conceptual makeover of national citizenship regimes along "postcitizenship" lines are explored as well across the settler domains of Canada and (to a lesser extent) the United States, Aotearoa/New Zealand, and Australia.

Описание: In acknowledging the possibility that as the world changes so too does racism, this book argues that racism is not disappearing, despite claims of living in a post-racial and multicultural world. To the contrary, racisms persist by transforming into different forms whose intent or effects remain the same: to deny and disallow as well as to exclude and exploit. Racisms in a Multicultural Canada is organized around the assumption that race is not simply a set of categories and that racism is not just a collection of individuals with bad attitudes. Rather, racism is as much a matter of interests as of attitudes, of property as of prejudice, of structural advantage as of personal failing, of whiteness as of the "other," of discourse as of discrimination, and of unequal power relations as of bigotry. This multi-dimensionality of racism complicates the challenge of formulating anti-racism and anti-colonialist strategies capable of addressing it. Employing a critical framework that puts politics and power at the centre of analysis, this book focuses on why racisms proliferate, how they work in contemporary societies, and how the way we think and talk about racism changes over time. Specifically, it examines the working of contemporary racisms in a multicultural Canada that claims to abide by principles of multiculturalism and a commitment to a post-racial society.
