Liberty and Solidarity: Living the Vocation to Business: Conference Proceedings

Liberty and Solidarity: Living the Vocation to Business: Conference Proceedings

Marja Walker

There appears to be a decline in confidence in the market economy as the engine of prosperity for all. A renewed focus on solidarity - love of others - in the marketplace could draw more people into the "circle of exchange" (Pope John Paul II, Centesimus Annus, 34), strengthen confidence in the market economy, and drive greater liberty and prosperity. But do the concepts of liberty and solidarity really belong together in commercial activity? An individualistic perspective sees them as opposing one another: solidarity, to the extent that it obliges me to "lose myself " in the service of others, seems to put a limit on my economic freedom. By contrast, the Church teaches that we become more free the more we commit ourselves to the service of others, and also that without solidarity we would not be able to maintain the conditions necessary for the operation of a free market. The CUA School of Business and Economics co-sponsored a conference with The Napa Institute titled, "Liberty and Solidarity: Living the Vocation to Business." Presenter's and participants comprised business and academic leaders who sought to discuss the practical and theoretical aspects of living the vocation to business in 2014. Each of the 16 30-minute presentations focused on answering a key question. The macro questions the conference intended to answer were: (a) What can we do to foster both liberty and solidarity in the contemporary economy?; (b) What ideas should be (re) proposed and what practical steps taken?; and (c) How should one live the vocation to business?

Die Moralisierung der Finanzmärkte als Fiktion

Die Moralisierung der Finanzmärkte als Fiktion

Eva-Maria Walker

Springer vs
2014
nidottu
?Die Frage nach einer „Moralisierung“ der Märkte greift in der wissenschaftlichen, aber auch öffentlichen Diskussion derzeit breit um sich. Beschränkte sich die Diskussion lange Zeit auf die Bereiche des Konsums, ist neuerdings sogar die Rede von einer „Moralisierung“ der Finanzmärkte. Nur: Haben wir es hier tatsächlich mit einer „Moralisierung“ der Märkte zu tun oder nicht eher mit einem analytisch unscharfen Verständnis von „Ökonomie“ und „Moral“? Die Arbeit greift diese Frage auf und entwickelt zunächst ein sozialkonstruktivistisch informiertes Verständnis von „moralischem“ Handeln. Mit Hilfe einer empirischen Fallstudie zum Selbstverständnis „nachhaltiger“ Aktieninvestoren prüft und analysiert sie sodann die Anlagepraxis jener Finanzinvestoren, die gemäß ihres kommunizierten Selbstverständnisses nicht nur ihren Renditezielen Rechnung tragen, sondern ebenfalls ihrer gesellschaftlichen Verantwortung als Aktionäre.

The Walker Brothers And Their Legacy: Three Black Soldiers In World War One

The Walker Brothers And Their Legacy: Three Black Soldiers In World War One

David Gleave; Maria Downer

Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
2017
nidottu
This book tells the story of three Black brothers who enlisted in the British West Indies Regiment and served King and Country in the First World War. It follows them from their birthplace in Barbados, via the colony of British Guiana, to the battlefields of Egypt and Palestine. Only two returned home. The book also tells of a daughter's search for the truth about the part her father and two uncles played in the war. This was truly a 'world war' but the role Black people played in it has often been ignored by the history books. This book seeks to play its part in redressing the balance. The author's search takes her from her birthplace in British Guiana, via a library in South London, to Seaford in Sussex and Marseilles in France where, ninety eight years after he died, she was able to visit the grave of her uncle. In telling the story of the three Walker brothers the book makes a unique contribution to the history of Black participation in the war

Maria Trickett is a child of The Workhouse, having entered the dreaded institution beside her mother. Given a basic education, her superiors soon realise that Maria would be a suitable candidate for a position 'In Service' and she soon finds herself working as a maid for a well-to-do family of The Mews. But life becomes even harder for Maria, as she becomes the victim of another's spite. Wrongly accused of something that she is not allowed to contest, she finds herself isolated, half-starved and alone. Hard-done-by and left with only her thoughts, Maria realises she has no happy memories, at all, and that her time within The Mews would soon be over. She finds herself alone within her despair. But there is hope for Maria - and it appears in the shape of a true friend. Charles-Henry will help Maria move into the future and help her to find her own Special Memories.

Anwendung Der Kartographie Von Sauve Umweltbildung Ströme

Verlag Unser Wissen

pokkari
Diese Studie zielte darauf ab, die Anwendung von Sauves Kartographie der Umweltbildungsstr me auf Gymnasiallehrer einer ffentlichen Schule in der Gemeinde Uirauna - PB zu demonstrieren. Die Studie verwendet als theoretische Annahmen, methodische Untersuchung der bibliographischen Forschung und Feldstudie, durch einen qualitativen und deskriptiven Ansatz, gekennzeichnet durch die Entwicklung und Kl rung von Ideen. Als Instrument zur Datenerhebung wurde ein Fragebogen, bestehend aus 16 Fragen, bei 25 Oberschullehrern der EEEFM Doutor Jose Duarte Filho in der Stadt Uirauna - PB angewendet. Die gewonnenen Daten wurden nach der Kartographie der Str mungen der Umwelterziehung von Sauv analysiert. Die Ergebnisse belegen, wie heterogen das Szenario der Umwelterziehung ist, was auf unterschiedliche Visionen und damit auch auf unterschiedliche Lehrmethoden in Bezug auf die Umwelt hinweist. Die Lehrmethodik, die von den Lehrern in den Disziplinen, die mit Umwelterziehung arbeiten, praktiziert wird, variiert je nach den Vorstellungen von Umwelt, die jeder von ihnen hat, was zeigt, dass der Lehrer nicht einer einzigen Str mung der Umwelterziehung folgt, sondern die bernahme dieser Str mungen ist.

Application of the Cartography of Sauve Environmental Education Currents

Application of the Cartography of Sauve Environmental Education Currents

This study aimed to demonstrate the application of Sauve's cartography of environmental education currents to high school teachers of a public school in the municipality of Uirauna - PB. The study used as theoretical assumptions, methodological investigation of bibliographic research and field study, through a qualitative and descriptive approach, characterized by the development and clarification of ideas. As an instrument for data collection, a questionnaire consisting of 16 questions was applied to 25 high school teachers of the EEEFM Doutor Jose Duarte Filho in the city of Uirauna - PB. The obtained data were analyzed according to the cartography of currents of Environmental Education of Sauve. The results attested how the scenario of Environmental Education is heterogeneous, indicating different visions and, therefore, different teaching methods in relation to the environment. The teaching methodology practiced by teachers in the disciplines that work with Environmental Education varies according to the conceptions of environment that each one has, demonstrating that the teacher does not follow a single current of Environmental Education, being the adoption of these currents.
