Elements of Moral Experience in Clinical Ethics Training and Practice: Sharing Stories with Strangers is a philosophical and professional memoir of the education, training, and professional development of becoming a clinical ethics consultant. Utilizing a phenomenological and narrative lens, this book offers a fresh and energizing window into the field of healthcare ethics by pairing compelling clinical narratives of what it is like to do clinical ethics consultation with clear reflections and accessible introductions to key philosophical, professional, and humanistic roots for responsible practice. Each chapter contains a firsthand account of a clinical ethics encounter – with vivid detail, verbatim dialogue, and internal monologues that reveal the consultant’s reflections throughout the consultation. Following or at times woven into the clinical story, each chapter explores elements of practice by highlighting philosophical, professional, and humanistic resources that connect to and shape meaning in everyday clinical ethics work, drawing from phenomenologically and narratively oriented ethicists (Richard Zaner, Andrea Frolic, Mark Bliton, and Stuart Finder), influential thinkers in adjacent fields (Alfred Schutz, Kurt Wolff, and Pierre Bourdieu), and creative writers and artists (Barry Lopez, Joe Henry, Audre Lorde, Robert M. Pirsig, and Dar Williams). The innovative structure signposts and illustrates distinct elements of clinical ethics experience and practice, inviting the reader to move through the book in different ways, according to their own learning goals, as graduate students, advanced trainees, practicing clinical ethicists, or ethics educators. By focusing on themes identified in the unique instances or experiences of first-hand accounts, or by tracing the philosophical reflections on grounding and orienting texts from the field, readers can access different elements of clinical ethics practice while the book as a whole models a process for considering and interrogating these elements. Elements of Moral Experience in Clinical Ethics Training and Practice: Sharing Stories With Strangers invites readers to articulate, reflect on, share, and ultimately learn from their own experiences in clinical ethics consultation.

Anticipatory Grief: A Time to Grow Spiritually

Anticipatory Grief is different from the grief that is felt when a loved one passes quickly and unexpectedly. Sometimes our loved ones take the long road to leave this earth and pass to their Heavenly home. This time frame creates a period of time called Anticipatory Grief. The death is anticipated, but time moves slowly and the long sad grieving period makes life difficult for all involved. Emotions run the gambit from being thankful they are still alive, to wishing it were all over. The guilt, the emotional pain, the fear of not having the loved one in the future all takes its toll on family and close friends. The purpose of this book is to turn this time frame from something that is a negative on the surface to a positive that can serve you for the rest of your life. The anticipatory grieving time is a perfect time to grow spiritually as you learn more about and practice love, compassion, harmony and service to others. As the title suggests, using this time to grow spiritually can turn this time into a blessing and the skills learned can make the time easier after the death does occur. Many other good books focus on the time frame after death that can help you to work through the grief that still happens after the death does occur. This book focuses on the time before, while one is anticipating the death that is taking a long time to happen. This information is presented for everyone and for all different religious persuasions.How would you benefit by putting the suggestions in this book into practice? At the very least, it will make you a nicer person. At the very most, it will help you to grow more spiritual. That is a win-win situation for you, your loved ones and our planet. If all of humanity would find a way to become nicer it would raise the spiritual energy level exponentially and the whole world would benefit. It starts with one person at a time... You.

A key factor in the failure of the intelligence community is the resistance to information sharing. Organizational culture is an essential link in understanding the resistance to information sharing. Using Edgar Schein's organizational culture model, this paper analyzes the organizational culture of the Department of Homeland Security and the Federal Bureau Investigation with an eye toward how organizational cultures of the Department of Homeland Security and the Federal Bureau impact information sharing. The Department of Homeland Security must identify, understand, and work through the barriers of organizational cultures within the intelligence community. Part of creating a culture of information sharing involves changing the way people value information sharing and collaboration by encouraging behaviors that foster sharing and discouraging those that do not. The Department of Homeland Security lacks several key characteristics in building an organizational culture such as a stable membership and shared history. The Department of Homeland Security is a newly structured organization with multiple agencies and departments with diverse missions. The creation of a unified organizational culture within the Department of Homeland Security will take time to develop because of the magnitude and complexity of the organization. In comparison, the Federal Bureau of Investigation was established in 1908 as a law enforcement-centric organization. However, the Federal Bureau of Investigation's Director, Robert Mueller, changed the organization to threat-based and intelligence driven organization after the events of 9/11. The Federal Bureau of Investigation has maintained its organizational culture while undertaking reorganization. The Department of Homeland Security and the Federal Bureau of Investigation have an opportunity to bridge the information sharing gap through the development of joint threat assessments.

The Novels of Zsigmond Móricz in the Context of European Realism
Virginia L. Lewis
PETER LANG PUBLISHING INC
2022
sidottu
The Novels of Zsigmond Móricz in the Context of European Realism is the first English-language monograph on one of Hungary’s—and Central Europe’s—most important modern authors. Using a thematic approach that privileges literary characters as stand-ins for real human beings, Virginia L. Lewis investigates Móricz’s thematization of individual agency in seven realist novels that form the foundation of the author’s reputation as a major twentieth-century novelist. Lewis does an outstanding job of showcasing the research results of the many Hungarian scholars who have studied Móricz’s narrative output over the past century, while also bringing decidedly new perspectives to the table in introducing the author to an English-speaking audience. Utilizing the theoretical impulses of scholars such as Horst and Ingrid Daemmrich, Margaret Archer, Jean-Paul Sartre, and Ibrahim Taha, among others, Lewis forges a new and productive path in Móricz scholarship, while also making his oeuvre accessible to a global audience. Any reader with an interest in Hungarian and Central European narrative will find this study enormously useful for the revelations it brings regarding Móricz’s poignant and brilliant critique of the corrosive influence of commodification and greed on human agency in modern society. "Informed by theory and grounded in a critical understanding of Hungarian social history in the first half of the twentieth century, Lewis’s engaging study of the realist novels of Zsigmond Móricz compels readers to think in new ways about questions of human agency amongst Hungary’s lower and middle classes as this played out against the backdrop of capitalist transformation and pronounced social conflicts and injustices in the decades leading up to World War II. Skillfully structured around succinct analyses of seven of Móricz’s key texts, Lewis’s book addresses a sizable gap in the English-language scholarship on one of Hungary’s greatest writers, and will be a welcome addition to the libraries of literary scholars and social and intellectual historians alike." —Steven Jobbitt, Associate Professor of Central and Eastern European History, Lakehead University, Thunder Bay, Canada
