Religious Free Exercise and Contemporary American Politics

Religious Free Exercise and Contemporary American Politics

Jerold L. Waltman

Continuum Publishing Corporation
2010
nidottu
Using a key religious freedom Act, the book analyzes legislative process, Supreme Court jurisprudence, and discusses the role of religion in public life. "Religious Free Exercise and Contemporary American Politics" explains why the Religious Land Use and Institutionalized Persons Act (RLUIPA) had to undergo a major metamorphosis in order to win approval. The book uses this episode as a window onto the dynamics of modern constitutional politics, specifically the constitutional politics of free exercise. The book argues that, although free exercise of religion remains an important value in American politics, it has been severely buffeted by both liberal individualism and identity politics. The former equates religious "choice" with all other types of choices one makes in life, the latter sees religious identity as equivalent to racial, ethnic, gender, or sexual orientation identities. These two views coalesced in the late 1990s to force major modifications in the proposed Religious Liberty Protection Act, succeeding in limiting its reach only to prisoners and land use disputes. Written in an accessible manner for students of politics and religion as well as constitutional politics and law, the book offers a unique perspective on religious freedom in American politics.

Managerial Economics and Organizational Architecture

Managerial Economics and Organizational Architecture

Brickley James A.; Smith Clifford W.; Zimmerman Jerold L.

McGraw Hill Higher Education
2006
sidottu
With two distinct objectives, this text's approach to managerial economics takes models from recent economics research and applies the research to the internal structure of a firm. After teaching basic applied economics, the authors look inside the firm and apply this analysis to management decision making. Authors Brickley, Smith, and Zimmerman contend that organizational architecture consists of three aspects of corporate organization: the assignment of decision rights within the company; methods of rewarding individuals; the structure of systems to evaluate the performance of both individuals and business units. These three components can be likened to a stool with three legs. If one of the legs is shorter, the stool is out of balance. These three elements must be in balance in the organization as well.

Hurricane Jerald

E Sterling

Independently Published
2018
pokkari
Hurricane Jerald: A Story of Forgiveness, Healing, and Breaking Free "I spent years trapped in a storm I couldn't escape. But I found a way out-through forgiveness." Sterling's childhood was one marked by the unseen scars of abuse-a reality so ingrained that he didn't even recognize it as different from what others experienced. For years, pain was his constant companion, and his suffering seemed as normal as breathing. But at the age of 12, something changed. For the first time, Sterling realized that the world wasn't supposed to feel this way. His life wasn't meant to be a cycle of fear and turmoil. Hurricane Jerald is the gripping and raw autobiography of a man who survived unimaginable hardship and emerged with a message of hope. This is the true story of one boy's struggle to understand his worth, his fight to reclaim his identity, and his powerful journey toward letting go of the past. At its core, this book is about transformation. It's about the choice to stop being defined by pain and start living for the future. Sterling's journey is a testament to the strength of the human spirit, and how it's possible to find peace, not by forgetting the past, but by forgiving it. In Hurricane Jerald, Sterling opens his heart and his history, offering readers an intimate look at the emotional toll of abuse-and the incredible resilience it takes to heal. Through heart-wrenching honesty, he reveals the depths of his anger, the struggles with his own identity, and the long road toward forgiving those who wronged him. But this book is not just about the past. It's about what happens when you decide to break free from it. If you've ever felt trapped in your own pain, if you've ever wondered how to forgive those who hurt you, or if you simply need a reminder that healing is possible-Hurricane Jerald will inspire you to find the courage to let go. Sterling's story is a beacon for anyone who has ever thought, "Can I truly heal? Can I really forgive?" Sterling's courage to share his painful story shows that healing isn't just a dream-it's a choice. And once that choice is made, freedom can follow. The power of forgiveness lies not in excusing the past, but in reclaiming your own future. Sterling's life proves that no matter how broken you feel, healing is possible. Through his story, you'll discover that when you choose to forgive-when you finally let go of the weight that holds you down-you can find peace, joy, and a new beginning.

2010
nidottu
Most of the 2.5 million graduate students in the U.S. are in programs designed for a career in academics. But the unspoken truth is that less than five percent will realize their dream of becoming a professor. The rest have little idea how to begin making a living in the business world. Life After Grad School is for students in all academic disciplines, with or without a Ph.D. This book illuminates the transition from academia to a satisfying and well-paying job with a company, government agency, or not-for-profit organization. Realistic and reassuring, it helps students structure their decision about leaving academics, and orients them to the culture of business. Readers learn how to adapt the knowledge and skills developed in grad school for business applications. Written for intelligent, mature students, the book provides practical tools and generates the confidence to find fulfilling alternative careers. Jerald Jellison, an authority on personal change, presents a clear, concrete roadmap that thoughtfully explains how to: identify "good" starter jobs, move from a CV to a compelling resume, present academic experience as a plus to interviewers, find businesses that are compatible with graduate training, and much, much more. He illustrates how to craft a winning "elevator pitch" (a quick way to advance your cause with business people), create a contact network, locate free job search resources, search and apply for jobs, and handle difficult interview questions. The book includes advice on landing a job, negotiating an optimal work agreement, and positioning yourself for future career advances. The only such book in print, Life After Grad School provides invaluable guidance for graduate students facing this most challenging career move.

Charitable Giving and Government Policy

Charitable Giving and Government Policy

Jerald Schiff

Praeger Publishers Inc
1990
sidottu
Author Jerald Schiff presents a framework within which charitable behavior can be understood from an economist's viewpoint. He stresses the impact of various government fiscal policies on charitable giving, an issue of increasing importance in light of social welfare spending cuts and the Tax Reform Act of 1986.The book begins with an introduction of the issues involved and an explanation of how an economic analysis differs from that of other disciplines. Chapter 2 introduces the basic model of giving employed throughout the book. Using this model, he describes conditions under which government spending will crowd out, or reduce, charitable giving. This analysis is then extended in several different directions in the balance of the book. First, Schiff considers the implications of the fact that much government spending is funneled through charitable organizations, arguing that government support for charities may actually encourage donations. Contending that donors often have poor information about the activities of charities, he analyzes soliciting by charities. Next, the author models the behavior of volunteers, arguing that money and time are often given for very different reasons and so may respond to policy changes in different ways. He offers several alternative explanations for volunteering. These several hypotheses are then tested against data from the National Survey of Philanthropy. The use of time series data from 1930-86 examines the historical relationship between government spending and money donations. In conclusion, the author considers likely future trends in the charitable sector. This book will interest economists and other social scientists working in the areas of charitable giving and the nonprofit sector and public finance. Practitioners--lawyers and fundraisers--in the nonprofit sector will also find this book required reading.
