This book argues that neoliberalism is not beneficial to the democratic process. In which it discusses the Middle East and other examples of neoliberal economies, which have not been successful. Neoliberalism has become a term that is more often used than fully understood in academic discussions, popular writings on the economy and/ or the news media. There is a large and growing library of books on the subject, yet still students from undergraduate to PhD level, as well as academics and other commentators, use the term as if we all knew what it meant, and as a catchall prejudicial accusation levelled at any aspect of the contemporary political economy they find unacceptable or malign. Neoliberalism is based on the idea of ignoring fundamental human needs. The success of neoliberal political strategies rests on a mixture of rhetoric and control of democracy¿s major local and global institutions. It is also based on the erosion of the key actors and institutions that are the main underpinnings of contemporary democracies such as pressure groups, civic organizations, and educational institutes.

Augustine considers the Christian scriptures to constitute the touchstone against which philosophy ¿ including political philosophy ¿ must be assayed, his worldview necessarily includes the Christian tenets of the Creation, the Fall of man, and the Redemption. In stark contrast to the pagan philosophers who preceded him ¿ who viewed the unfolding of history as a cyclical phenomenon, Augustine conceives history in strict linear terms, with a beginning and an end. According to Augustine, a perfectly good and just God, who created man, brought the earth into existence ex nihilo. The earth is not eternal; the earth, as well as time, has both a beginning and an end. Man, on the other hand, was brought into existence to endure eternally. Damnation is the just desert of all men because of the Fall of Adam, who, having been created with free will, chose to disrupt the perfectly good order established by God. As the result of Adam¿s fall, all human beings are heirs to the effects of Adam¿s original sin, and all are vessels of pride, avarice, greed and self-interest.

This book discusses of Samuel Huntington¿s Clash of Civilizations and Conservatism as an ideology in the thought of Samuel Huntington. On January 3, 1992 a meeting of Russian and American scholars took place in the auditorium of a government building in Moscow. Two weeks earlier the Soviet Union had ceased to exist and the Russian Federation had become an independent country. As a result, the statue of Lenin, which previously graced the stage of the auditorium, had disappeared and instead the flag of the Russian Federation was now displayed on the front wall. The only problem, one American observed, was that the flag had been hung upside down. After this was pointed out to the Russian hosts, they quickly and quietly corrected the error during the first intermission. The years after the Cold War witnessed the beginnings of dramatic changes in peoples' identities and the symbols of those identities. Global politics began to be reconfigured along cultural lines. Upside-down flags were a sign of the transition, but more and more the flags are flying high and true, and Russians and other people are mobilizing and marching behind these and other symbols of their new cultural identities.

This book, which looks at the way in which earlier philosophical structures, in particular Stoicism and the works of Aristotle, have influenced and contributed to Christian principles of moral value, integrity and the definition of the social order in relation to the universe.Stoicism is a school of philosophy that hails from ancient Greece and Rome in the early parts of the 3rd century, BC. It is a philosophy of life that maximizes positive emotions, reduces negative emotions and helps individuals to hone their virtues of character.Simply put, Stoicism was designed to help people live their best possible lives. At any moment, in any situation, and at any stage of life, Stoicism provides a framework for living well. It reminds people of what is truly important, providing practical strategies to get more of what is valuable. Stoicism was deliberately created to be understandable, actionable and useful. Practicing Stoicism doesn¿t require learning a new philosophical lexicon or meditating for hours a day.

This book discovers on the Malaysian tribe of the Kadazandusuns and how poverty is impacting them. Also to examine the effect of the ethnic self-identity of the Kadazandusun people on their cultural heritage. Kadazandusun has its special traditional rituals and slight differences in the design of their traditional costume, their dialect and their traditional music rhythm. However, we believe all these sub-ethnicities of the Kadazandusun within the Dusunic language family share a broad similarity in terms of their cultural heritage and ways of life. Back in the 1960s, the KadazanDusun made up 40 per cent of the total population of Sabah, but now they only make up 18 per cent and the Murut only three per cent of the State¿s population of more than three million. The focus of this study is the Kadazandusun. In Sabah, there are 32 officially recognized ethnic groups with their own culture; traditional culture still influences the everyday life of most Sabahans. We were interested in examining the effect of ethnic self-identity that we believe may derive from traditional music and traditional costume¿s on the sense of community and its four types of the Kadazandusun community in Sabah.

This book considers this tribe of the Colombian Amazon. Traditional life ways are described alongside contemporary threats to those life ways The Nukak live between the Guaviare and Inírida rivers in southeast Colombia. They are one of six groups known as the ¿Makü peoples, all nomadic hunter-gatherers living in the headwaters of the northwest Amazon basin. Traditionally, the Nukak live in small groups, between nine and thirty people, in the very deep forest away from the rivers. They are One of Colombia's last nomadic peoples, the few hundred remaining people of the Nukak branch of the Maku people, spend several months of each year working for another indigenous group, Tukano. Tukano are among the most politically active of lowland groups, although not all are members of the Regional Council of Vaupés Indians (CRIVA), a federation founded in 1973 with members from some 35 different ethnic groups. Many Tukano are hostile to CRIVA, considering it an organization created by whites, and one which has had little influence. The Tukano language was formerly known as Betoya, today Middle Tukano is called Kubeo.

Ce que nous comprenons du concept d'égalité entre les sexes, c'est que lorsque les personnes de tous les sexes ont les mêmes droits, les mêmes responsabilités et les mêmes opportunités, alors tout le monde est affecté par l'inégalité entre les sexes - les femmes, les hommes, les personnes transgenres et de genre différent, les enfants et les familles. Le PNUD, par exemple, a placé l'égalité des sexes au c¿ur de ses travaux et vous avez peut-être constaté des progrès remarquables au cours des deux dernières décennies. Il y a plus de filles à l'école aujourd'hui qu'il y a dix ans, et la plupart des régions ont atteint la parité des sexes dans l'enseignement primaire. Mais malgré la présence d'un nombre plus important que jamais de femmes sur le marché du travail, il semble que de grandes inégalités subsistent dans certaines régions, notamment parce que les femmes se voient systématiquement refuser les mêmes droits au travail que les hommes. La violence et l'exploitation sexuelles, la répartition inégale des soins non rémunérés et du travail domestique, ainsi que la discrimination dans la fonction publique, sont autant d'obstacles considérables. Ce livre permet de découvrir le droit saoudien, les politiques en matière d'égalité des sexes et les nouvelles réformes dans le royaume.

This book is about the discussion of the similarities between John Locke's philosophy of government and that of Immanuel Kant. Notes that each had very definitive ideas of individual rights and the relation of those rights to law and government. Contends that in practically every respect the John Locke's idea of government can be demonstrated to be fully compatible with Immanuel Kant's thesis in "Idea for a Universal History¿. A government is the system or group of people governing an organized community, often a state, but also other entities, for example, a company. In the case of its broad associative definition, the government normally consists of legislature, executive, and judiciary. Government is a means, by which organizational policies are enforced, as well as a mechanism for determining policy. Each government has a kind of constitution, a statement of its governing principles and philosophy. Typically the philosophy chosen is some balance between the principle of individual freedom and the idea of absolute state authority (tyranny).
