Leading thinkers from a range of disciplines discuss the compatibility of power and care, in conversation with the Dalai Lama.
For more than thirty years, the Dalai Lama has been in dialogue with thinkers from a range of disciplines, helping to support pathways for knowledge to increase human wellbeing and compassion. These conversations, which began as private meetings, are now part of the Mind & Life Institute and Mind & Life Europe. This book documents a recent Mind & Life Institute dialogue with the Dalai Lama and others on two fundamental forces: power and care--power over and care for others in human societies.
The notion of power is essentially neutral; power can be used to benefit others or to harm them, to build or to destroy. Care, on the other hand, is not a neutral force; it aims at increasing the wellbeing of others. Power and care are not incompatible: power, imbued with care, can achieve more than a powerless motivation to care; power, without the intention to benefit others, can be ruthless. The contributors--who include such celebrated figures as Frans B. M. de Waal, Olafur Eliasson, Sarah Blaffer Hrdy, and Jody Williams--discuss topics including the interaction of power and care among our closest relatives, the chimpanzees; the effect of meditation and mental training practices on the brain; the role of religion in promoting peace and compassion; and the new field of Caring Economics.

Dans les arts visuels de la p?riode moderne, d?cor et architecture ne sont pas appr?hend?s s?par?ment mais se compl?tent, voire se recoupent. L’ambition de ce recueil consiste, par des ?tudes in?dites, ? interroger les liens qu’entretiennent ces deux champs dans l’Europe des XVIe, XVIIe et XVIIIe si?cles. La perspective adopt?e est large : les contributions abordent tant les productions princi?res que priv?es ou eccl?siastiques, dans de nombreuses zones g?ographiques. La vari?t? des approches m?thodologiques et l’abondance des sources historiques permettent de mieux cerner les rapports entre th?ories et pratiques, hors de tout syst?me pr?d?fini, et d’explorer les pr?rogatives des nombreux acteurs impliqu?s dans l’?laboration et la conduite d’un chantier.

Описание: In The Catechumenate in Late Antique Africa (4th-6th centuries) Matthieu Pignot explores how individuals became Christian in ancient North Africa. Before baptism, converts first became catechumens and spent a significant time of gradual integration into the community through rituals and teaching. This book provides the first historical study of this process in African sources, from Augustine of Hippo, to canon of councils, anonymous sermons and 6th-century letters. Pignot shows that practices varied more than is generally assumed and that catechumens, because of their liminal position, were a disputed and essential group in the development of Christian communities until the 6th century at least. This book demonstrates that the catechumenate is key to understanding the processes of Christianisation and conversion in the West.

Enron, Arthur Andersen, Parmalat, AIG: business headlines over the last few years have stimulated worldwide interest in accounting responsibilities and standards. Smoke and Mirrors, Inc., is a remarkable introduction to contemporary accounting and its central importance for the operation of modern capitalism. Nicolas V?ron, Matthieu Autret, and Alfred Galichon show how accounting always mirrored the features of contemporaneous financial systems, while remaining intrinsically subject to judgment and uncertainty and thus leaving scope for manipulation that can convert a rotten balance sheet into a picture of robust financial health.
Beginning with the story of the fictional company Smoke & Mirrors Inc., V?ron and his coauthors provide a brief history of accounting's emergence and its key concepts and practices. They then shift their focus to the political economy of the various actors involved in the preparation, auditing, and use of financial information and the new challenges facing regulators as capital markets spread across national boundaries. The authors challenge widespread beliefs that accounting practices are neutral and involve the mere reporting of objective data. They trace how different accounting standards, which alter the calculus of what counts as a "fair representation" of business dealings, can change economic behavior. Along the way they provide numerous examples and case studies, including a detailed account of the tricks with which Enron cooked its books.
For students of corporate finance, practicing accountants and businesspeople, and general readers who have followed a seemingly endless parade of financial scandals with disbelief, Smoke and Mirrors, Inc., provides a clear and concise overview of the use and abuse of accounting and of the underlying changes in today's capital markets.

Описание: This compilation opens with a study that seeks to understand the ways in which various parent involvement behaviors impact Hmong elementary students academic abilities in reading and math, also investigating whether or not Hmong students English proficiency moderates these relationships. The subsequent study focuses on the interrelation between family factors, child-rearing conditions, parents mindset and formation of civic and ethnic identity of teenagers in mono-ethnic and interethnic families of migrants. The authors go on to present the systemic and cultural stressors voiced specifically by Mexican-American youth, providing implications for community-based participatory research, intervention work, and advocacy. Following this, they assess the outcomes of a school intervention program aimed at improving interethnic relations among primary school children in Italy through foreign language learning activities. The academic achievements and educational trajectories of the children of immigrants in Austria are examined. In particular, the experiences of second- and third-generation pupils may provide a clearer indication of the long-term prospects for integration than those of first-generation immigrants. In closing, Immigrant and Migrant Children: Current Issues and Challenges reviews the current literature about the harmful implications of arrest, detention, and deportation on undocumented childrens mental health, discussing the underlying factors of the harmful consequences.

Описание: The Paralegal is a story about one of the most dangerous type of spies who sourced from well-meaning scientists, research librarians, politicians and government stenographers for the purpose of nuclear proliferation. Unknown to the spy is a Paralegal, who works in the New York State Attorney General's office securities division and who was previously his former clerical employee at a Wall Street firm, that has him in her gaze. Overladen with detail work, the checklist reviewer and the least praised workhorse for the lawyer group, this Paralegal emerges as the forefront of responsibility for protecting the public against the demons of subversion and their political allies. Her suspicions and those of her lover surround and affect critical events of evasions and successes that make up the story. Mysteriously emerging from Eastern Europe, with millions in old Mexican bonds apparently obtained by a Soviet Arab officer from Holocaust victims, the espionage agent enters the United States under the fraudulent cover as a Polish refugee. The story pursues this espionage agent from obscure beginnings, to friendships with U.S. Senators, top IRS officials, all in the way of his spying mission that takes him abroad. In the course of his work, he is constantly in fear of unknown principals who seek his elimination and in fear of his disclosure. The Paralegal is based on true events which occurred in my Father's life soon after World War II and involves the spread of technical nuclear information that he was closely associated with. All names, dates and events have been altered for the safety and privacy of those involved.
Three luminary teachers unfold a compelling series of dialogues on inner freedom--what it is and how to cultivate it in ourselves and others.
We are, nearly all of us, writes Matthieu Ricard, the playthings of our whims, conditioning, impulses, inner conflicts, wandering thoughts, and afflictive emotions. This servitude is at the root of much that torments us. How do we free ourselves from the prison of these mental mechanisms, in the face of which we often feel helpless, even resigned? With their acclaimed book In Search of Wisdom, these three gifted friends--a monk, a philosopher, and a psychiatrist--shed light on our universal quest for meaning, purpose, and understanding. Now, in this new in-depth offering, they invite us to tend to the garden of our true nature, freedom. Turn by turn, each shares his own unique perspective on the various obstacles to inner freedom, the "ecology" of freedom, the ways to cultivate it, and the harvest that comes out of it. What emerges is a panoramic vision and roadmap for us to overcome the barriers that hinder our liberation. It is our hope, they write, that this book will provide clarification of the means for freeing ourselves from the causes of suffering. Filled with unexpected insights and specific strategies, Freedom for All of Us presents an inspiring guide for breaking free of the unconscious walls that confine us.
