Book Synopsis Custom and Confrontation by : Roger M. Keesing
Download or read book Custom and Confrontation written by Roger M. Keesing and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1992-12 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Anthropologists and students of anthropology may read this book because it is a superior ethnography, detailed and enriched by theoretical insights. But at the heart of this book is a moral take, a simple but powerful story about an indigenous people who were wronged, who resisted for more than 100 years, and who may yet prevail. This message, ultimately, lends the book its true meaning and value."—William Rodman, Anthropologica "A major contribution to the ethnography and history of Malaita and Melanesia, and to the growing literature on cultural resistance. But above all, his humane and painful analysis of the meeting of peoples living in different worlds and constructing their agendas and moralities on incommensurate—and apparently equally arbitrary—principles, represents a major contribution and challenge to anthropological thought, addressing the basic issue of what it is to be human."—Fredrik Barth
Book Synopsis The Death of the Big Men and the Rise of the Big Shots by : Keir Martin
Download or read book The Death of the Big Men and the Rise of the Big Shots written by Keir Martin and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2013-03-01 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1994, the Pacific island village of Matupit was partially destroyed by a volcanic eruption. This study focuses on the subsequent reconstruction and contests over the morality of exchanges that are generative of new forms of social stratification. Such new dynamics of stratification are central to contemporary processes of globalization in the Pacific, and more widely. Through detailed ethnography of the transactions that a displaced people entered into in seeking to rebuild their lives, this book analyses how people re-make sociality in an era of post-colonial neoliberalism without taking either the transformative power of globalization or the resilience of indigenous culture as its starting point. It also contributes to the understanding of the problems of post-disaster reconstruction and development projects.
Book Synopsis Handling Verbal Confrontation by : Robert Vincent Gerard
Download or read book Handling Verbal Confrontation written by Robert Vincent Gerard and published by Oughten House Foundation, Inc.. This book was released on 1999 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the major inadequacies of our culture is our inability to verbally confront one another. It kills interpersonal relationships. It is a time bomb within families. It causes low productivity, stress, headaches, and increases our consumption of alcohol, and drugs. Very few even recognize it as a problem, and even fewer know what to do about it. Why? Because we were never taught how to confront properly and effectively. But, our success depends on these skills. The Art of Handling Verbal Confrontation guides the reader in how to approach, verbally address issues, and face others successfully, without fear. These skills belong to the inner tactical strategy of facing yourself, facing the issue, and facing the other person. It is a key to spiritual empowerment.

Book Synopsis Compassionate Confrontation by : James Evans
Download or read book Compassionate Confrontation written by James Evans and published by Xulon Press. This book was released on 2007-07 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Compassionate Confrontation is a compelling look at the cultural challenges facing the twenty-first century Christian. Written in a practical and direct style, the book presents a biblical alternative to the "take back the culture" and "stay out of the culture" agendas that are advocated by well-meaning Christians. It dares Christians to take God's Truth into the public arena where absolutes and Truth have been replaced by speculations and lies. Full of battlefield stories and biblical references, the book presents a balanced look at the American culture and the biblical role of the church within it. The author calls for Christians to compassionately confront a dying world with the life-giving Truth found in God's Word and demonstrated in the lives of true Christians. His passionate, logical exhortation to the church is based on biblical truth, shaped by the teachings of Francis Schaeffer, and tested in the trenches of experience. Jim Evans has been married to his wife, Joan, for thirty-one years. He is the father of four grown children and has two grandchildren. He received his undergraduate degree from Lancaster Bible College and his graduate degree from Palm Beach Atlantic University. He has established two churches, directed a mission to Haiti, and is currently engaged in conference speaking and assisting national preachers in Africa, India, and Eastern Europe. He has also served as a Christian lobbyist in New York, worked as police liaison for the anti-abortion group, Operation Rescue, was imprisoned for opposing abortion, testified in federal courts, and debated with opponents of Christianity on television, radio, and secular university campuses. Over thirty years of ministry experience in the streets, courtrooms, prisons, and churches of America give him an unusual qualification to speak to the issues confronting the church in twenty-first century America.

Book Synopsis Mastering Confrontation by : Robert Hunt
Download or read book Mastering Confrontation written by Robert Hunt and published by . This book was released on 2020-02-20 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Families Spend 50 Minutes Per Day Arguing, Do You Want to Be Wasting Your Life in Conflict? The right tools can help you turn fights into positive learning experiences and even opportunities for growth A new study reveals shocking statistics - we spend an average of 49 minutes per day fighting with family members! In addition, 2.8 hours of work time per week is also dedicated to conflicts. Instead of being focused on something productive, we're wasting energy on interactions that are very often meaningless and sometimes - destructive. Nobody likes conflict, yet we seem to be dedicating an awfully long amount of time to it. We argue with loved ones. We argue at the office. And to top it all off - we argue on social media! Do you know why we engage in conflict? The number one reason people give when being asked about why they'd get in a fight (a digital or in real life) is "they started it!" In other words, most of us never own up to our actions or take responsibility for the things that we do. Society tends to have a pretty negative view on confrontation, which is why most of us will never learn how to disagree in a meaningful way and how to actually start perceiving conflict as a learning opportunity. Conflict, however, can be a truly beneficial thing because: It allows us to learn more about others New ideas can be born during a heated interaction An opportunity is provided to verbalize needs that would have been unaddressed otherwise It can teach many valuable skills: patience, active listening, collaboration and flexibility When done correctly, it can lead to a resolution Which brings us to the next point - learning to manage conflict in the correct way so that a resolution can be achieved. In Dealing with Conflict, you'll discover: Some of the most common causes of arguments, disagreements and conflicts in the workplace, at home or among friends What's active listening and why you need to start practicing it today The importance of accepting responsibility for conflicts and seeing the argument from another perspective The power of acknowledging you're wrong What set of skills and tools every person needs to develop for effective conflict management The strategies for resolving a conflict like a boss Digital conflict, how it came in existence, what can be done about it and how to manage bullying The importance of knowing when the situation can't be salvaged and you need to quit And much more. As a bonus, you'll see real-life example of arguments and conflict situations and the best ways to diffuse those through open and honest communication. Most of us are non-confrontational by nature. This is why we tend to blow the fear of conflict out of proportion. Whether you're fighting with your significant other over work-life balance or you're being approached by an angry coworker who thinks you took all the credit for a joint project, fear could paralyze you and make you act in an irrational way. You need a shift in mindset to start seeing conflict as a healthy opportunity to grow. Mastering Confrontation by Robert Hunt can help you change your mindset gradually using concrete steps.
