Book excerpt: "This book is 'must read' for scholars, policymakers, service providers, law enforcement, practitioners and the emerging group of student professionals charged with unlocking the complexities of the human trafficking and exploitation problem. It brings much needed clarity to our understanding of human trafficking's definition, history, typology, and policies while offering directions toward potential solutions through a comprehensive examination of the multiplicity of existing roles and perspectives shaping human trafficking including those of victim groups, voluntary/social service providers, religious/faith based groups, health care treatment/service providers, prisons, land use planners, social media and media picture markets as well as the wide range of crime based exploiters pursuing their vested interests to satisfy a growing demand."George L. Amedee, Professor of Political ScienceSouthern University at New Orleans Emmett W. Bashful Endowed ChairHuman bondage and involuntary servitude are illegal throughout the world. The tragedies of sex trafficking and exploitation have taken human suffering and involuntary servitude to all-time heights. Twenty-seven million people are estimated currently ensnared in one of history's oldest social institutions; often committed under our very noses. A must-read for: academia, military personnel, law enforcement, and the general public.A. Wayne Turner, Lt. Colonel, U.S. Army, and former Chief of Police, (Ret.).

Download or read book The New Paradigm written by John O'M. Bockris and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 504 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The New Paradigm begins by extolling Science and what it has done for us. Then, in Chapter 2, the consequences of our short-sighted acceptance of the comforts of the present are shown to make it unlikely that the West can survive this century. Exhaustion of resources and overpopulation are the principal reasons. In Chapters 4 and 5, it is shown that our present beliefs in the foundations of science are ill-based; most of those secure foundations are by now shaking with doubt. Then follows the essence of the book. In Chapters 5, 6, 7 and 8 there is presented evidence for the acceptance of the reality of Telepathy and Precognition; of ghosts of people; of the ability of some to leave the body whilst still alive; of experiences when very near to death which seem to be independent of the experiencer's religion. These involve the experience of an intense feeling of love, of the evaluation of your life, etc. The most frequent beginning to such experiences involves the observation of the patient on the death bed - usually in a hospital operating room - of one's own body from high up near the ceiling. After that, the evidence for Reincarnation in new bodies is given. In Chapter 9 is a detailed discussion of what CONSCIOUSNESS means. In this chapter comes a statement of the evidence for a Biofield to explain the ability of some to show that they can change their surroundings by the power of their mind. In the last chapter, some conclusions are given and an approach to a New Paradigm outlined. Humans exist dualistically, the essence of a human is inside his mortal body. This essence is called Consciousness (or the Soul) and it lives on although we do not yet know for how many generations; nor whether this reincarnation applies to all of us. Acceptance of this vital change of outlook, when it spreads to the general population, will cause many changes including the diminishing of Hate and War and an increase in Peace and Love.

Download or read book NEW PARADIGM ECONOMICS written by TIANYU DAI and published by American Academic Press. This book was released on 2023-06-01 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new era calls for new economics. This book offers a new paradigm of economics with a new perspective and a new fundamental logic system in this new century. The new paradigm originates from a fundamental fact: The main behavioral subjects of socio-economic activities are not individuals, but social organizations composed of individuals, such as families, enterprises, schools, research institutes, government branches, charity organizations and so on. So this book replaces the controversial assumption of "economic man" with the model of "the minimum economic system" abstracted from reality and establishes a new logic analysis framework of "economic unit (the minimum economic system) -- economic flow (the input and output between economic units) -- economic field (the space-time distribution of economic units and their movement)" which is totally different from all existing economics theories. As a result, this book reconstructs economics on a foundation of natural science and systems science and can explain the secret of China's rapid economic growth and other economic puzzles at the level of fundamental logic. This book replaces neoclassical and modern orthodox economics with a new economics meta-theory, making it a fascinating read and providing a valuable reference for researchers, teachers and students majoring in economics.

Download or read book On the Role of Paradigms in Finance written by Kavous Ardalan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-05-13 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social theory can usefully be conceived in terms of four key paradigms: functionalist, interpretive, radical humanist and radical structuralist. The four paradigms are founded upon different assumptions about the nature of society and each generates distinctive theories, concepts and analytical tools. Finance theory is based on the functionalist paradigm and for the most part finance theorists are unaware of the philosophical tradition to which they belong. By relating finance to the four paradigms, Ardalan's work offers a concise understanding of the multifaceted nature of finance. He recommends theorists adopt a diversity of paradigms and discusses its benefits by application to the following phenomena: the development of academic finance, the mathematical language of academic finance, the mathematics of academic finance, money, corporate governance, markets, technology and education.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Practical Framework for Positive Social Change In 1987, Anne Firth Murray had the idea that funding should go to grassroots women's organizations around the globe and that the recipients themselves should decide how to use that money. From that idea, The Global Fund for Women was born. The organization became a major force for good in the world, embodying a new paradigm of philanthropy. In these pages, Murray shares her wisdom, offering guidelines that demonstrate how anyone can turn a clear vision of a better world into reality.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book Augusto Rodr'guez provides a historical survey of the different paradigms of Christianity in order to understand how and why the church has changed her concept of being the church and of mission. This book will help in understanding how the different paradigms of Christianity, throughout history, have changed the church's self-understanding of being the church and of mission. Rodr'guez's aim is to provide an opportunity for Christians to see the different paradigms the church has gone through and understand the present situation of the church in order to live out as fully as possible the New Testament understanding of its mission and better accomplish the task.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beyond the Marketplace is an interdisciplinary view of the relationship between markets and society. Do individuals behave in markets as neoclassical theory assumes they do? Can other social institutions and processes--e.g., family formation and voting behavior--be analyzed with the same analytic tools we use to study markets? How is economic behavior shaped by institutions beyond the marketplace? Do markets themselves have a social and cultural structure which is not adequately explained by the formal tools of neoclassical analysis? In Beyond the Marketplace, economists, sociologists, political scientists, historians, and anthropologists respond to these, and related, questions.

Download or read book Handbook of Globalization and the Environment written by Khi V. Thai and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-25 with total page 617 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Proponents of globalization argue that it protects the global environment from degradation and promotes worldwide sustainable economic growth while opponents argue the exact opposite. Examining the local, national, and international impacts of globalization, the Handbook of Globalization and the Environment explores strategies and solutions that support healthy economic growth, protect the environment, and create a more equitable world. The book sets the stage with coverage of global environmental issues and policies. It explores international sustainable development, the evolution of global warming policy, transborder air pollution, desertification, space and the global environment, and human right to water. Building on this foundation, the editors discuss global environmental organizations and institutions with coverage of the UN's role in globalization, the trade-environment nexus, the emergence of NGOs, and an analysis of the state of global environmental knowledge and awareness from an international and comparative perspective. Emphasizing the effects of increasingly integrated global economy on the environment and society, the book examines environmental management and accountability. It addresses green procurement, provides an overview of U.S. environmental regulation and the current range of voluntary and mandatory pollution prevention mechanisms in use, explores a two-pronged approach to establishing a sustainable procurement model, and examines a collaborative community-based approach to environmental regulatory compliance. The book concludes with an analysis of controversial issues, such as eco-terrorism, North-South disputes, environmental justice, the promotion of economic growth through globalization in less developed countries, and the ability of scientists to communicate ideas so that policy makers can use science in decision making.

This book was released on 2013-03-04 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paradigm Shifts & Structural Changes - in Pursuit of Progress in the Caribbean Community This publication consists of a significant number of scholarly papers from eminent Caribbean Intellectuals and academics, committed to the advancement of regional integration. It encapsulates articles which represent views on CARICOM, covering a wide spectrum of issues from conception, through current trials and tribulations, into bold peeks into the future. The contribution by the late Hon. Best and Dr. St. Cyr, is particularly interesting as it dares to try to impose paradigm shifts on both the methodology to be used, and on the desirable destination to be sought, if future generations are not to decry the current generation for this myopia.

Download or read book The Rhetorical Turn written by Herbert W. Simons and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2011-02-15 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We have only recently started to challenge the notion that "serious" inquiry can be free of rhetoric, that it can rely exclusively on "hard" fact and "cold" logic in support of its claims. Increasingly, scholars are shifting their attention from methods of proof to the heuristic methods of debate and discussion—the art of rhetoric—to examine how scholarly discourse is shaped by tropes and figures, by the naming and framing of issues, and by the need to adapt arguments to ends, audiences, and circumstances. Herbert W. Simons and the contributors to this important collection of essays provide impressive evidence that the new movement referred to as the rhetorical turn offers a rigorous way to look within and across the disciplines. The Rhetorical Turn moves from biology to politics via excursions into the rhetorics of psychoanalysis, decision science, and conversational analysis. Topics explored include how rhetorical invention guides scientific invention, how rhetoric assists political judgment, and how it integrates varying approaches to meta-theory. Concluding with four philosophical essays, this volume of case studies demonstrates how the inventive and persuasive dimensions of scholarly discourse point the way to forms of argument appropriate to our postmodern age.
