Coping with the climate crisis is the greatest challenge we face as a species. We know the main task is to reduce our emissions as rapidly as possible to minimise the harm to the world's population now and for generations to come. What on earth can philosophy offer us?
In this compelling account of a problem we think we know inside out, the philosopher Graham Parkes outlines the climatic predicament we are in and how we got here, and explains how we can think about it anew by considering the relevant history, science, economics, politics and, for the first time, the philosophies underpinning them. Introducing the reality of global warming and its increasingly dire consequences, he identifies the immediate obstructions to coping with the problem, outlines the libertarian ideology behind them and shows how they can be circumvented. Drawing on the wisdom of the ancients in both the East-Asian and Western traditions (as embodied in such figures as Confucius, Laozi, Zhuangzi, Dogen, Plato, Epicurus, Marcus Aurelius and Nietzsche), Parkes shows how a greater awareness of non-Western philosophies, and especially the Confucian political philosophy advocated by China, can help us deal effectively with climate change and thrive in a greener future. If some dominant Western philosophical ideas and their instantiation in politics and modern technology got us into our current crisis, Parkes demonstrates persuasively that expanding our philosophical horizons will surely help get us out.

Описание: Effective Australian history education has never been more important for the development of critically aware and thoughtful young people. History fosters important skills in reasoning, historical consciousness and empathy; and an appreciation of history is crucial to the development of students' understanding of the very nature of our society. This edited collection comprises contributions from leading historians, educators and practising teachers, and surveys Australian history teaching today, from the development of the national curriculum to fostering historical thinking and promoting effective engagement in the history classroom. The book begins with an analysis of the principles underlying the drafting of the national curriculum and features insights from the writers of the curriculum themselves. It focuses on the curriculum from primary- and secondary-school teaching perspectives. Part 2 examines the teaching of historical expertise including historical thinking and value formation, as well as productive assessment and the important role social history can play in the classroom. Part 3 concentrates on specific approaches to history teaching including teacher talk; the use of historical fiction and film; digital technology and the internet; as well as museums as a teaching medium. Part 4 analyses key aspects of Australian history teaching including Indigenous perspectives, teaching citizenship and assisting the pre-service teacher in their transition to becoming a professional. Rich with insights into historical skills, historical concepts and critical thinking, as well as practical guidance on translating principles into engaging classroom approaches, this is an essential reference for both pre-service and in-service history teachers and educators.

Автор: Andrew Parkes Название: Bloomsbury Professional Tax Insight - Withholding Tax ISBN: 152651575X ISBN-13(EAN): 9781526515759 Издательство: Bloomsbury Academic Рейтинг: Цена: 52800.00 T Наличие на складе: Нет в наличии. Описание: UK withholding tax is a method of collecting tax at source from the person who makes a payment instead of raising an assessment on the recipient. It is is an effective way for tax authorities (HMRC) to collect tax. It passes the administrative burden onto the person making the payment (the payer) to:
- withhold the appropriate amount of income tax from the payment
- account for such tax to HMRC
- submit returns to HMRC containing information on the amounts paid and withheld in respect of UK tax, and
issue tax statements or certificates to the recipient informing them of the amount of the payment and the amount of the tax deducted even though the tax is due in respect of income belonging to the recipient.
As a general rule, UK domestic law requires companies making payments of interest to withhold tax at 20%
Withholding tax is an income tax that often affects companies. It doesn’t fit neatly into publications aimed at income tax, where corporation tax practitioners may miss it, or corporation tax, as it is strictly income tax and has relevance for individuals.
Covers the following issues:
- Interest, covering the domestic withholding requirement, then moving on to consider how the recipient may claim a reduction or repayment, considering the role of double taxation treaties and, for now, the EU Interest and Royalties Directive (under UK law, a company may have a duty to withhold tax in relation to the payment of either interest or royalties.
- Royalties; the obligation to withhold , and moving on to consider how the tax to be withheld can be reduced or repaid. The role of double taxation treaties and the EU directive will also be covered here.
- How withholding tax relates to dividends.
- Discussion of the Offshore Receipts in respect of Intangible Property regime. This is not strictly a withholding tax, but the regime has its roots in the royalties withholding tax rules.
- The possible impact of Brexit will be covered where relevant.
The guidance is illustrated by the use of diagrams and flow charts and case studies. Relevant case summaries are referenced throughout.

Описание: In the years prior to publication `cures` for stuttering seemed to appear constantly, but many were of limited value, were poorly evaluated and gave only a temporary alleviation that was not transferred to daily life. First published in 1983, this book aimed to provide such an overview, with a focus on practical intervention rather than on theory.
