Experiencing the State

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Rudolph, Lloyd I. / Jacobsen, John Kurt, PUBLISHER: Oxford University Press, USA, This provocative volume on the state departs markedly from a conventional analysis that universalizes and standardizes what the state is, does, and means. The writers mean to engage state and stateness as it is encountered in everyday life, ranging from urban and small town life to hospital treatment, cinema attendance and art exhibitions to big dams, war and torture. These essays locate the state in time space, and circumstances so that it becomes contingent and evocative rather than definitive and authoritative. The co-editors frame the volume with an introduction that presents a non- essentialist narrative of state formation in the west and a conclusion that confronts how the state is being experienced in a post-9/11 world. Twelve essays examine how the state has been experienced in the U.S., Western Europe, the former Soviet Union, South Asia and the Far East. Contributors include James Scott, Arundhati Roy, Bruce Cumings, Paul Brass, Sudipta Kaviraj and Philip Oldenburg.

A Relational Paradigm..... Patterns for Change

ISBN: , SKU: , PUBLISHER: Trafford Publishing, A Relational Paradigm..... Patterns for Change contains the basic axioms or premises of a world view. This relational world view can reconcile the differences in conflicting views that exist in our world (between East and West, Democrat and Republican, science and religion). The book provides the basic patterns of how these twofold axioms manifest themselves through the threefold, fourfold, and fifth business into reality. These axioms and patterns are then applied to the real world. The book contains theory and application of the relational paradigm to organizations and computers. In the application to computers RS (Relational Structure) is a theory and technology to handle the storage of data. RL (Root Language) is the generic patterns of language and can be used to handle computer code. A fundamental shift in orientation of the relational paradigm from the existing paradigm is in the relationship between people and systems. In our existing paradigm, systems take precedence over people. We are taught how the system operates, and we learn to adapt. In the relational paradigm, the system can adapt to the individual as well as the individual to the system. The users of the system are in a position to control rather than simply respond to the system. Systems are to be used rather than to be served. In the relational paradigm the injunction changes from, "If you want to know this, do this," to "If you want to understand this, use these."

The Cyclothymia Workbook: Learn How to Manage Your Mood

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Price, Prentiss, PUBLISHER: New Harbinger Publications, Cyclothymia is a mood disorder characterized by cycling periods of hypomania-unusual emotional highs-and periods of mild to moderate depression. The condition is similar to the better known bipolar disorder, but cyclothymics never experience episodes of full mania or deep depression. In order for a therapist to diagnose someone with cyclothymia, the cycling of moods must continue for at least two years. Since the emotional episodes of cyclothymics tend to be more mild, they often go undiagnosed and untreated. Clinical studies have demonstrated, though, that leaving these symptoms untreated carries a particular risk: between 15 and 50 percent of cyclothymia sufferers will eventually develop a diagnosable bipolar disorder. The Cyclothymia Workbook, the first written specifically to cyclothymia sufferers, helps readers learn more about this condition. It explores hereditary and stress-related possible causes of the disorder, as well as the history of the condition and its treatment. The book offers exercises to help readers recognize their emotional cycles and any conditions that might trigger changes from one phase to another. The book introduces readers to cognitive behavioral techniques that are effective at limiting and controlling shifting moods. Later chapters explore treatment options-medical and psychotherapeutic-and offer advice on how to manage relationships when one partner suffers from cyclothymia.

The Executive Guide to Implementing Quality Systems Total

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Mears, Peter / Mears / Voehl, Frank, PUBLISHER: CRC Press, Presenting an unusual and unique system for Continuous Quality Improvement (CQI), this new book is geared for executives who want or need to support quality improvement in their organizations. It is the contributions made by CEO's and upper management that moves the quality process forward, and because of this structure, The Executive Guide to Implementing Quality focuses on the concepts, thinking, and systems necessary for management to operationalize the CQI philosophy. Because quality is not a management problem but rather a problem that involves and requires all people working together at all levels to participate and cooperate, management must engage the organization in the processes that will improve the quality of their goods or services. It is, however, management's job to lead, organize, structure, motivate, and involve the organization in those strategies and systems that will ensure quality improvement. This book explains how to do that. Readers are given a series of exercises and explanations that will help them master the skills and understanding required to identify the management systems they need to support their quality improvement. After reading about a concept, they are asked to contribute to exercises designed to inspire creative and innovative thinking and the exploration of multi-functional options. And because it is the job of management to initiate the quality movement, this book shows how to change defensive thoughts like that won't work for me into what is there that will work here. In addition to showing management how to take the lead in installing CQI in their organization, it also shows how to install the concepts through leadership teams, how to bring out the best in people, how to get top performance from employees and become a world-class organization, and how to reinforce the behaviors necessary to achieve the visions and goals of the organization. This workbook is an easy-and-quick-to-use guide that shows how to identify the support systems that generate desirable outcomes and reinforces them through positive actions.
