ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Bates, Greg / Common Courage Press, PUBLISHER: Common Courage Press, Why is Ralph running? Why is he doing this to his legacy, to his causes-to his country?

The Benedict Option A strategy for Christians

Vedno libro "The Benedict option A strategy for Christians in a post-christian nation" di Rod Dreher Sentinel, New York, Copertina rigida con sovracopertina Pag. 262 Dimensioni: 15,5 x 23,6 x 3,0 cm circa Come nuovo. Sovracopertina un po' sgualcita Testo in INGLESE In this controversial bestseller, Rod Dreher calls on American Christians to prepare for the coming Dark Age by embracing an ancient Christian way of life. From the inside, American churches have been hollowed out by the departure of young people and by an insipid pseudo-Christianity. From the outside, they are beset by challenges to religious liberty in a rapidly secularizing culture. Keeping Hillary Clinton out of the White House may have bought a brief reprieve from the state's assault, but it will not stop the West's slide into decadence and dissolution. Rod Dreher argues that the way forward is actu­ally the way back--all the way to St. Benedict of Nur­sia. This sixth-century monk, horrified by the moral chaos following Rome's fall, retreated to the forest and created a new way of life for Christians. He built enduring communities based on principles of order, hospitality, stability, and prayer. His spiritual centers of hope were strongholds of light throughout the Dark Ages, and saved not just Christianity but Western civilization. Today, a new form of barbarism reigns. Many believers are blind to it, and their churches are too weak to resist. Politics offers little help in this spiritual crisis. What is needed is the Benedict Option, a strategy that draws on the authority of Scripture and the wisdom of the ancient church. The goal: to embrace exile from mainstream culture and construct a resilient counterculture. The Benedict Option is both manifesto and rallying cry for Christians who, if they are not to be conquered, must learn how to fight on culture war battlefields like none the West has seen for fifteen hundred years.

Educational Yearning: The Journey of the Spirit and

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Oldenski, Thomas / Carlson, Dennis, PUBLISHER: Lang, Peter, Publishing Inc., What room is there for a language of spirituality and the spirit in democratic forms of education? This is the question posed in this collection of essays by a broad range of scholars working in education. Beginning with the premise that postmodernism is associated with a re-spiritualization of culture, the authors seek to explore ways in which this re-spiritualization can be pushed in democratic rather than rightist or fundamentalist directions. What they celebreate is s diversity of progressive traditions and discourses of spritiuality that educators and other cultural workers can draw upon to inform practice, even as they all essentialistic notions of spirituality. Together, these essays move democratic education onto a fundamentally new cultural terrain, and they suggest that the metaphor of the journey of the spirit is one of the most enduring and potentially democratic ways of thinking about what it means to teach and to become educated.

Democratizations: Comparisons, Confrontations, and Contrasts

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Ciprut, Jose V., PUBLISHER: MIT Press (MA), Democracy is not in steady state, and democratizations are open-ended processes; they depend on structures and functions in systemic contexts that idiosyncratically evolve in tone, tenor, direction, and pace over time. They affect and are affected by scores of determinants, both perceived and hypothetical. In interlinked chapters that span a number of disciplines, this volume reexamines the basic traits, the comparable outcomes, and the self-defining dynamics of some of the more widely attempted versions of democracy across the world. It discusses some of the controversies that can speed up or slow democratizations, depending on systemic structures, functions, processes, and contexts at play inside, outside, and across political boundaries. The crucial question these chapters address is whether democratization is possible without an understanding of what is expected from a mode of citizenship inseparable from an ethic of freedom.

Spy on the Roof of the World

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Wignall, Sydney, PUBLISHER: Lyons and Burford Publishers, In Sydney Wignall led the Welsh Himalayan expedition to climb Tibet s highest mountain, Gurla Mandhata. With a rare view of Chinese military operations in Tibet, he and two of his companions were more than mountaineers; they were spies. Not long into their journey they were captured and imprisoned, thus beginning an agonizing ordeal that would draw on their last reserves of psychic strength and physical courage. This is their story. Imprisoned by the People's Liberation Army of the Republic of China, subjected to freezing, rat-infested cells and to near-tortuous interrogation, only Wignall's incredible courage, humor, and ingenuity enabled them to survive. Eventually, international pressure forced the Chinese to release the three men. Hoping that they would not get back alive, the Chinese abandoned them at the foot of one of the highest passes in the Himalayas -- a pass never before climbed in winter -- starving, exhausted, and physically broken. Their journey back is one of mountaineering's great epics. "Spy On the Roof of the World" is a riveting and unforgettable tale.

Top Down Policy Making

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Dye, Thomas R., PUBLISHER: CQ Press, In this brief, eye-opening work, Thomas R. Dye explodes the myth that public policy represents the "demands of people," and that the making of public policy flows upward from the masses. In reality, Dye argues, public policy in America, as in all nations, reflects the values, interests, and preferences of the governing elite."Top Down Policymaking" is a close examination of the process by which the nation's elite goes about making public policy. Focusing on the behind-the-scenes activities of money foundations, policy planning organizations, think tanks, political campaign contributors, special-interest groups, lobbyists, law firms, influence-peddlers, and the national news media, Dye concludes that public policy does not represent the "demands of people."The reality is that public policy is made from the top down.

Restocking Pastoralists: A Manual of Best Practice and

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Heffernan, Claire / Misturelli, Federica / Nielsen, Louise, PUBLISHER: ITDG Publishing, Restocking can be an effective means of poverty alleviation, which enables poor households to be incorporated back into the social and economic fabric of pastoralism. Nevertheless, at present the sustainability of projects is low. Hence the intention of this manual is to offer 'best practice' and decision support tools that can increase the number of positive project outcomes. Further, as many practitioners are new to restocking, the manual offers a background to important concepts and the literature. For those readers to whom the full explanation is not necessary, at the end of each chapter a summary of key points is offered.The manual is the result of a two-year global study on restocking policy and practice. It is based on discussions with over 30 NGOs, donors and governments involved in restocking. More specifically, 85 restocking projects representing a wide range of agencies from donors to Community based organizations (CBO), were analyzed for key design and implementation issues. Overall approximately 700 restocked households participated in the study.

The Power of Kindness: The Unexpected Benefits of Leading a

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Ferrucci, Piero / Ferrucci, Vivien Reid, PUBLISHER: Jeremy P. Tarcher, Piero Ferrucci warns against the dangers of "global cooling." As the pace of living grows faster and the impact of new technologies more insistent, communications become hurried and impersonal. The drive for profit overrides the heart. Warmth and genuine presence fade. "The Power of Kindness" is a stirring examination of a simple but profound concept. Piero Ferrucci, one of the world's most respected transpersonal psychologists, explores the many surprising facets of kindness and argues that it is this trait that will not only lead to our own individual happiness and the happiness of those around us, but will guide us in a world that has become cold, anxious, difficult, and frightening. In eighteen interlocking chapters, Dr. Ferrucci reveals that the kindest people are the most likely to thrive, to enable others to thrive, and to slowly but steadily turn our world away from violence, self-centeredness, and narcissism- and toward love. Writing with a rare combination of sensitivity and intellectual depth, Dr. Ferrucci shows that, ultimately, kindness is not a luxury in our world but rather a necessity for us all.
