Revolution from Within

Revolution from Within

Patrick H. O’Neil

Edward Elgar Publishing Ltd
1998
sidottu
In this highly original book, Patrick O'Neil analyses the catalysts of the collapse of socialism in Eastern Europe and offers explanations for these events. The exceptional case of Hungary is used to support theoretical concepts regarding the transition in Eastern Europe using new empirical evidence and institutional theory.The Hungarian transition from communism is distinct in that the Hungarian Socialist Workers' Party was the initiator of its own transition but also acted as its own greatest enemy. This book provides a detailed analysis of the internal reform movement within the Hungarian Communist Party and its role in the incremental transition to democracy in the late 1980s. The author utilises party archives and primary interviews with important figures in the Communist Party to examine the effect of institutional relationships on the collapse of the authoritarian order. He also emphasises the role of reform circles in accelerating the disintegration of the Communist Party in Hungary. The book concludes that the way in which an autocratic order perpetuates itself affects the manner of its decline and the new system that takes its place.This authoritative book will be welcomed by academics and students interested in the politics of transition both in Hungary and Eastern Europe and the politics of the demise of communism in general.

WHY ONLY TWO SLICES OF THE BREAD? (Changing how you approach life)

Wazer H Walker; O'Neil B Ankle

Auctorem House LLC

pokkari
Every day, people face challenges they'd overcome if they aligned themselves with the right people when 1they decide to Jesus Christ. Preachers O'Neil B. Ankle and Wazer H. Walker explore how to resist negativity, seek help from the Lord, and find the right people to journey within this inspirational book. They challenge you to look at the bigger picture in reaching for achieving success. As you read, you'll learn how to: - move out of your comfort zone to achieve more; - use a vision board to elevate your life; - find the right mentors to walk and run with; - view failure as a temporary roadblock. The authors also examine how fear can be crippling-and why it is essential to lean on Jesus Christ and follow His leading. A spirit of faith combined with prayer and preparation will lead to success. Why limit your capacity to achieve, when you were created for achieving excellence, success, and victory and having more than enough? You were created to soar even when you may be working against the wind of adversity. "And the Lord shall make you the head, not the tail; and thou shalt be above only, and thou shalt not be beneath" (Deuteronomy 28:13). The process of becoming the head starts within one's mind. Despite working with the concept that says, "If I launch out, something positive can happen," achievements will not come without struggles. Someone holding you back may have been your lot. However, it does not have to be a death sentence. You are better than that. Learn to talk to you and encourage you. The struggle you will face on your way to progress or the top will make you stronger. You will therefore come out of your struggles smiling, knowing that it was worth it. This book is therefore designed to let you understand that purpose is never achieved without some level of setback or failure. Nothing in this life worth having will come without some struggle.

The Retirement Challenge

The Retirement Challenge

Martin Neil Baily; Benjamin H. Harris

OXFORD UNIVERSITY PRESS INC
2023
sidottu
A comprehensive plan from two leading experts on how to fix America's outdated retirement system America's retirement system has serious problems. While it works well for some retirees, millions of others don't have the sound retirement they have worked decades to secure. Roughly 40 percent of today's $4 trillion federal budget is devoted to supporting retirees, which will grow to roughly half over the next decade-imperiling the sustainability of the whole system. The system is out of date. It reflects the America of a bygone age--an era in which company or union pensions provided middle-class families a decent standard of living in retirement. In America today, however, private pensions have mostly disappeared, Social Security is threatened to go insolvent, people are living longer, and health care costs continue to rise. Poorer retirees now must choose between buying enough to eat and their prescription drugs. In The Retirement Challenge, influential former White House economists Martin Neil Baily and Benjamin H. Harris explore America's outdated retirement system and explain how improving retirement requires changes by families, employers, and policymakers alike. Households need to save more, get smarter about their finances, and trade part of their 401(k) balances for insurance products. Companies need to take a more active role in their workers' retirements. And lawmakers need to amend the tax code, Social Security, and a host of other programs. Despite today's wide political divide, policymakers from both parties can come together around changes that will promote a stable retirement. This book shows that these changes do not represent a radical overhaul. If families, businesses, and policymakers do their part, everyone-current retirees and future generations-can enjoy a much more secure and prosperous retirement.

Every day, people face challenges they'd overcome if only they allied themselves with the right people while turning to Jesus Christ. Preachers O'Neil B. Ankle and Wazer H. Walker explore how to resist negativity, seek help from the Lord and find the right to people to journey with in this self-help book. They challenge you to look at the bigger picture as it relates to achieving success. As you read, you'll learn how to: - move out of your comfort zone to achieve more; - use a vision board to elevate your life; - find the right mentors to walk and run with; - view failure as a temporary roadblock. The authors also examine how fear can be crippling-and why it is essential to lean on Jesus Christ and follow His lead. A spirit of faith combined with prayer and preparation will lead to success. If striving for more than two slices of the bread means doing more to achieve goals, then don't settle for two Stop being mediocre and chase the extraordinary. Why not adopt the principle of big thinking, or dreaming big, or above and beyond blessings? Why limit your capacity to achieve, when you were created for achieving excellence, success, and victory and having more than enough? You were created to soar even when you may be working against the wind of adversity. "And the Lord shall make you the head, not the tail; and thou shalt be above only, and thou shalt not be beneath" (Deuteronomy 28:13). The process of becoming the head starts within one's mind. Despite working with the concept that says, "If I launch out, something positive can happen," achievements will not come without struggles. Someone holding you back along with stagnation may have been your lot. However, it does not have to be a death sentence. You are better than that. Learn to talk to you. The struggle you will face on your way to progress will make you stronger. You will therefore come out of your struggle smiling, knowing that it was worth it. Purpose is never achieved without some kind of setback or failure. Nothing in this life worth having will come without some struggle.

Looming Vulnerability

Looming Vulnerability

John H. Riskind; Neil A. Rector

Springer-Verlag New York Inc.
2018
sidottu
This stimulating resource presents the Looming Vulnerability Model, a nuanced take on the cognitive-behavioral conceptualization of anxiety, worry, and other responses to real or imagined threat. The core feature of the model—the perception of growing, rapidly approaching threat—is traced to humans’ evolutionary past, and this dysfunctional perception is described as it affects cognitive processing, executive functioning, emotions, physiology, and behavior. The LVM framework allows for more subtle understanding of mechanisms of and risk factors for the range of anxiety disorders as well as for more elusive subclinical forms of anxiety, worry, and fear. In addition, the authors ably demonstrate how the LVM can inform and refine cognitive-behavioral and other approaches to conceptualization, assessment, and treatment of these often disabling conditions. This important volume: · Introduces the LoomingVulnerability Model in its evolutionary, developmental, cognitive, and ecological contexts. · Unites diverse theoretical strands regarding anxiety, fear, and worry including work on wildlife behavior, experimental cognition and perception, neuroimaging, and emotion. · Defines the looming cognitive style as a core aspect of vulnerability. · Describes the measurement of the looming cognitive style, Looming Maladaptive Style Questionnaire, and measures of looming vulnerability for specific disorders. · Details diverse clinical applications of the LVM across the anxiety disorders. Spotlighting phenomena particularly relevant to current times, Looming Vulnerability, brings a wealth of important new ideas to researchers studying anxietydisorders and practitioners seeking more avenues for treating anxiety in their patients.
