Book Synopsis Disrupting Time by : Stanley Hauerwas
Download or read book Disrupting Time written by Stanley Hauerwas and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2004-08-24 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We are told time after time September 11, 2001 has forever changed our lives. Disrupting Time, however, is not about September 11, 2001. Disrupting Time is about the disruption of time by a time named Jesus. Thus my contention that Christians do not believe that September 11, 2001 changed the world because the world was changed in 33 A.D. We, that is, Christians believe we can only know what happened on September 11, 2001 because God acted decisively on behalf of the world in 33 A.D. --From the Introduction

Download or read book Black and White written by Teesha Hadra and published by Abingdon Press. This book was released on 2019-03-19 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Working against racism is part of what it means to call Jesus Lord and Savior. Most of us don’t need to make speeches. We need to make friends. This is the core message of Black and White: racism can be disrupted by relationships. If you will risk forging friendships with those who do not look like you, it will change the way you see the world, and that could change the world. The authors, Teesha Hadra, a young African American woman, and John Hambrick, a sixty-year-old white man, bring a confident and redemptive tone to this hope because that is exactly what they’ve experienced. Black and White leverages their story, surrounding it with other’s stories, practical advice, and exploration of the systems of racism to motivate you to consider your own role in change. Learn about the various and often subtle ways racism continues to be a part of American culture. Discover how simple (albeit not always easy) it is to get involved in what God is doing to disrupt racism. Become equipped to take faithful, practical, next steps in obedience to God’s call to join the movement against racism. “Awareness creates discontent. A lack of awareness often results in complacency. When it comes to racism there’s no room for complacency. Especially for Christ followers. In Black & White my friends Teesha Hadra and John Hambrick stir our awareness. My hope—their hope—is that having become aware we will become permanently and passionately discontent with racism in all of its insidious forms and expressions.” —Andy Stanley, pastor and founder of North Point Community Church, author of Irresistible

Book Synopsis Disrupting Copyright by : Margery R Hilko
Download or read book Disrupting Copyright written by Margery R Hilko and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-02-09 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New innovations are created every day, but today’s business leaders are focused on finding disruptive innovations which are cheaper and lower performing than upmarket technologies. They create new markets, and challenge the status quo of existing technological thinking creating uncertainty both in the future of the innovation and the outcome of the market upheaval. Disruptive innovation is an influential innovation theory in business, but how does it affect the law? Several of these technologies have brought new ways for individuals to deal with copyright works while disrupting existing market expectations, while their ability to spawn social norms has presented challenges for legislation. Considering disruptive innovation as a class, this book examines innovations that have impacted copyright in the past, what lessons can be learned from how the law interacted with them, and how the law can successfully deal with them going forward. Creating comprehensive guidance that can be used when faced with disruptive innovations with the aim of more successful legislation, it considers whether copyright law itself has been disrupted through these innovations. Exploring whether disruptive innovations as a class have unique properties that necessitate action by legislators and whether these properties have the possibility to disrupt the law itself, this book theorises how the law should deal with disruptive innovations in general, going beyond a discussion of the regulation of specific innovations to develop a framework for how law makers should deal with disruptive innovations when faced by one.
Book Synopsis Disrupting Rape Culture by : Fanghanel, Alexandra
Download or read book Disrupting Rape Culture written by Fanghanel, Alexandra and published by Bristol University Press. This book was released on 2020-08-12 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pussy grabbing; hot mommas; topless protest; nasty women. Whether hypersexualised, desexualised, venerated or maligned, women’s bodies in public space continue to be framed as a problem. A problem that is discursively ‘solved’ by the continued proliferation of rape culture in everyday life. Indeed, despite the rise in research and public awareness about rape culture and sexism in contemporary debates, gendered violence continues to be normalised. Using case studies from the US and UK – the de/sexualised pregnancy, the troublesome naked protest, the errant BDSM player – Fanghanel interrogates how the female body is figured through, and revolts against, gendered violence. Rape culture currently thrives. This book demonstrates how it happens, the politics that are mobilised to sustain it, and how we might act to contest it.

Book Synopsis Disrupting the Patrón by : Joel E. Correia
Download or read book Disrupting the Patrón written by Joel E. Correia and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2023-04-04 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A free ebook version of this title is available through Luminos, University of California Press’s Open Access publishing program. Visit www.luminosoa.org to learn more. In Paraguay’s Chaco region, cattle ranching drives some of the world’s fastest deforestation and most extreme inequality in land tenure, with grave impacts on Indigenous well‑being. Disrupting the Patrón traces Enxet and Sanapaná struggles to reclaim their ancestral lands from the cattle ranches where they labored as peons—a decades-long resistance that led to the Inter‑American Court of Human Rights and back to the frontlines of Paraguay’s ranching frontier. The Indigenous communities at the heart of this story employ a dialectics of disruption by working with and against the law to unsettle enduring racial geographies and rebuild territorial relations, albeit with uncertain outcomes. Joel E. Correia shows that Enxet and Sanapaná peoples enact environmental justice otherwise: moving beyond juridical solutions to harm by maintaining collective lifeways and resistance amid radical social-ecological change. Correia’s ethnography advances debates about environmental racism, ethics of engaged research, and Indigenous resurgence on Latin America’s settler frontiers.
Book Synopsis Disrupting Sacred Cows by : Garrett B. Gunderson

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the 2008 financial crisis, wealth strategist Garrett Gunderson made his timely debut into the literary world with his ground breaking book, Killing Sacred Cows, where he exposed the ingrained fallacies and destructive myths surrounding money and wealth. This New York Times Bestseller provided a fresh and thoughtful approach to debunking many of our archaic beliefs and misguided traditions within the world of personal finance at a time when our trust and comfort in the status quo had been severely fractured. Now – 13 years later - on the heels of both a global pandemic and technological revolution, he returns with his highly anticipated follow-up, Disrupting Sacred Cows Disruptive events have the power to alter even the most basic assumptions we have about our lives and profoundly change the way we live them. To many, such dramatic and sudden shifts can create chaos, confusion, and fear. However, Garrett asserts that disruption – while sometimes painful in its abruptness – can also be a time rife with opportunity for incredible growth and transformation by allowing it to shake us out of what he calls a “losing game”. When disruption happens, we create a space to play a new game, a “winning game”, one that can create more wealth, deepen relationships, increase contribution to society, and make life more fulfilling. In his thought-provoking book, Garrett reveals: The presence of Sacred Cows not only in your finances but also your relationships, and the sinister role they play in keeping you from reaching your full potential How disrupting those Sacred Cows can unlock your true potential New ways to play the “Game of Life”, and how to move from a losing game (filled with sacrifice) to a winning game Why the Consumer Condition is a “zero-sum game” that enslaves us to the Sacred Cows of our society – and, more importantly, how to break free from it How Blockchain technology is poised to become the next great digital disruption How Cryptocurrency is becoming the greatest wealth accumulation opportunity of our generation, and how to glean insight from the internet revolution as a roadmap to success

Book Synopsis Disrupting the School-to-Prison Pipeline by : Sofía Bahena
Download or read book Disrupting the School-to-Prison Pipeline written by Sofía Bahena and published by Harvard Education Press. This book was released on 2012-12-01 with total page 469 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A trenchant and wide-ranging look at this alarming national trend, Disrupting the School-to-Prison Pipeline is unsparing in its account of the problem while pointing in the direction of meaningful and much-needed reforms. The “school-to-prison pipeline” has received much attention in the education world over the past few years. A fast-growing and disturbing development, it describes a range of circumstances whereby “children are funneled out of public schools and into the juvenile and criminal justice systems.” Scholars, educators, parents, students, and organizers across the country have pointed to this shocking trend, insisting that it be identified and understood—and that it be addressed as an urgent matter by the larger community. This new volume from the Harvard Educational Review features essays from scholars, educators, students, and community activists who are working to disrupt, reverse, and redirect the pipeline. Alongside these authors are contributions from the people most affected: youth and adults who have been incarcerated, or whose lives have been shaped by the school-to-prison pipeline. Through stories, essays, and poems, these individuals add to the book’s comprehensive portrait of how our education and justice systems function—and how they fail to serve the interests of many young people."
