The Podium, the Pulpit, and the Republicans

The Podium, the Pulpit, and the Republicans

Frederick Stecker; Charles C. Lemert

Praeger Publishers Inc
2011
nidottu
In this book, the presidential debates of 2000, 2004, and 2008 are analyzed in terms of linguistics, rhetoric, and religious context to offer a unique perspective on the styles, beliefs, and strategies of the two major parties and their candidates.In The Podium, the Pulpit, and the Republicans: How Presidential Candidates Use Religious Language in American Political Debate, a veteran minister analyzes the religious metaphors Republicans use at the podium and alleges that the party deliberately employs blaming tactics, fear metaphors, and coded references to apocalyptic judgment to sway undecided voters.Over the past 40 years, Frederick Stecker charges, the Republican Party has created fear for political expediency. Stecker's book traces the development of the Republican rhetoric of polarization and applies the linguistics-based "nation-as-a-family" political typology of George Lakoff to an analysis of the presidential debates of 2000, 2004, and 2008. He demonstrates how Republican candidates select their language and metaphors to signal adherence to rigid belief systems and simple, black-and-white choices in domestic and foreign policy.

Natural Corporate Management

Natural Corporate Management

William C. Frederick

Greenleaf Publishing
2012
nidottu
This groundbreaking new book by business scholar William C. Frederick presents an innovative, exciting – even revolutionary – view of corporate management and the challenges it confronts in today's world. The author proposes a management paradigm shift transforming the way corporations do business. Management scholarship and research may well be rechanneled from current orientations to new models, concepts, and theories of what it takes to manage corporations in a planetary world confronting climate change, energy crises, and securing the well-being of all global citizens.Natural Corporate Management (NCM) is an awareness and an acceptance by the managers of today's business corporations of the close functional linkage between natural forces and human economic choices. NCM is not a set of techniques or methods but is a growing consciousness by managers of the presence and influence of nature in all managerial decisions. The book's central theme is that business and nature are locked into an evolutionary partnership that defines all aspects of corporate management, including decisions, policy, goal-seeking, organizational design, workplace behavior, and productive operations. This partnership of Nature and Nurture yields economic, social, and ecological dividends for corporations, their stakeholders, and the global community. An "Evolutionary Cascade" depicts the various phases of evolutionary change – physical, organic, genetic, human, neurological, symbolic – beginning with the Big Bang origin of the Universe and continuing to modern times. These evolutionary events collectively influence the operational activities of all business firms. A "Natural Theory of the Firm" summarizes the NCM approach, as well as the mind-set of corporate managers, and the bio-socio-economic consequences of their decisions. This theoretically-innovative book proposes an agenda of corporate actions to promote long-term sustainability and economic well-being of business, its stakeholders, and planetary citizens everywhere. It will be essential reading for managers and researchers at all levels who wish to engage seriously with the challenges of organic life and its long-term sustainability.

Theorie der Wechselströme in analytischer und graphischer Darstellung

Theorie der Wechselströme in analytischer und graphischer Darstellung

Frederick Bedell; A.C. Crehore

Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH Co. K
1895

Die Theorie del' Wechselstrome ist von grosser tech- nischer und wissenschaftlicher Bedeutung. Die Verfasser haben es sich dahel' zur ihrer Aufgabe gemacht, diesen Gegenstand, del' bisher von verschiedenen Schriftstellern nur fragmentarisch behalldelt worden ist, systematisch zu ent- wickeln. Dieselben glauben hiermit einem langgeftihltell Be- dtirfnisse elltgegenzukommen. Die Behandlung der Theorie der Wechselstrome ist streng wissenschaftlich. Dabei haben sich abel' die Verfasser bemtiht, die Resultate in eine solche Form zu bringen, dass sie auch fur denjenigen verstandlich und brauchbal' sind, welcher del' logischen Ableitung derselben nicht folgen kann. Da die graphischen Methoden den Vorzug del' Anschau- lichkeit besitzen, so ist der graphischen Behandlung besondere Beachtung geschenkt worden, besonders bei solchen Fallen, wo sich analytische Methoden als schwerfallig und vel'wickelt erweisen wllrden. - Das Bueh zerfallt in zwei Haupt- abtheilungen, die analytische und die graphische. 1m erst en Kapitel wird die TheOl-ie des Magnetismus und del' Elektricitat in elementarer Weise auf Grundlage del' Experimente von Coulomb, Faraday, Joule und Ohm entwickelt. Die Darstellung dieser elell1entaren Principien ist in sich abgeschlossen, so dass zum Vel'standniss dieses Buches ein eingehenderes Studium del' Elektricitat und des Magnetismus kaum erforderlich sein diirfte. Vorwort. IV Alsdann wird die Energiegleichung aufgesteIlt und daraus werden dann in den folgenden Kapiteln die Differential-und Integralgleichungen des Stromes abgeleitet. Die Wichtigkeit, die bei del' Theorie del' Wechselstrome den harmonischen Funktionen beizumessen ist, hat die Ver- fasser veranlasst, diesem Gegenstande ein besonderes Kapitel zu widmen.
