Download or read book Serbian Orthodox Fundamentals written by Christos Mylonas and published by Central European University Press. This book was released on 2003-05-01 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a comprehensive exposition of the interaction of a national (the Serbian people) and a religiou (the Orthodox Christian faith) content, in the formation of a distinctive national identity and a mode of being. Its interdisciplinary approach, drawing on sociology, social anthropology, theology, political theory, Balkan historiography, and Serbian folklore, is deployed to provide a powerful and original analysis of how Serbian Orthodoxy has resulted in the sacralisation of the Serbian nation by framing the parameters of its existence. Addresses the following questions: what 'makes' a Serb? Are meaningful assumptions possible by introducing Serbian Orthodoxy as the primal point of reference? Why does religion appear to have an especially strong appeal?

Book Synopsis The Psychology of the Recession on the Workplace by : Cary L. Cooper
Download or read book The Psychology of the Recession on the Workplace written by Cary L. Cooper and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2013-01-01 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Two deep human needs are to master the world and to feel safe and secure. The Great Recession thwarted both needs for millions of people around the world. Cooper and Antoniou's global team of scholars address the psychological, economic, social, and other dimensions of our current crisis while charting paths whereby we can again satisfy these needs. Let us rise above the crisis and follow Aristotle's path to living well and faring well. This book offers a plan for doing so.' James Campell Quick, The University of Texas at Arlington, US An economic recession can affect the aggregate well-being of a population. This highly regarded and timely book shows a significant increase in the mean levels of distress and dissatisfaction in the work place in recent years. In particular, increasing job demands, intrinsic job insecurity and increasingly inadequate salaries make substantial contributions to psychological distress, family conflict and related behaviors. The contributors reveal that the recession has fundamentally altered the way employees view their work and leaders. With employers and employees still facing a continued period of uncertainty, a severe impact on employment relations is a continuing reality. Given the difficult economic times, many people are feeling the pressure to work harder. This book will be valuable for undergraduate students and practitioners in the fields of organizational behavior and human resource management.

Book Synopsis Balkan Family Structure and the European Pattern by : Maria N. Todorova
Download or read book Balkan Family Structure and the European Pattern written by Maria N. Todorova and published by Central European University Press. This book was released on 2006-01-01 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study, which is an updated, extended, and revised version of the out-of-print 1993 edition, reassesses the traditional stereotype of the place of the Balkans in the model of the European family in the nineteenth century on the basis of new source material and by synthesizing existing research. The work first analyzes family structure and demographic variables as they appear in population registers and other sources, and the impact of these findings on theoretical syntheses of the European family pattern. On most features, such as population structure, marriage and nuptiality, birth and fertility, death and mortality rates, family and household size and structure, as well as inheritance patterns, the Balkans show an enormous deal of internal variety. This variability is put in a comparative European context by matching the quantifiable results with comparable figures and patterns in other parts of Europe. The second section of the book is a contribution to the long-standing debate over the
Book Synopsis The Forgotten 500 by : Gregory A. Freeman
Download or read book The Forgotten 500 written by Gregory A. Freeman and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2008-09-02 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The astonishing, never before told story of the greatest rescue mission of World War II—when the OSS set out to recover more than 500 airmen trapped behind enemy lines in Yugoslavia... During a bombing campaign over Romanian oil fields, hundreds of American airmen were shot down in Nazi-occupied Yugoslavia. Local Serbian farmers and peasants risked their own lives to give refuge to the soldiers while they waited for rescue, and in 1944, Operation Halyard was born. The risks were incredible. The starving Americans in Yugoslavia had to construct a landing strip large enough for C-47 cargo planes—without tools, without alerting the Germans, and without endangering the villagers. And the cargo planes had to make it through enemy airspace and back—without getting shot down themselves. Classified for over half a century for political reasons, the full account of this unforgettable story of loyalty, self-sacrifice, and bravery is now being told for the first time ever. The Forgotten 500 is the gripping, behind-the-scenes look at the greatest escape of World War II. “Amazing [and] riveting.”—James Bradley, New York Times bestselling author of Flags of Our Fathers

Book Synopsis Tell It to the World by : Eliott Behar
Download or read book Tell It to the World written by Eliott Behar and published by Dundurn. This book was released on 2014-12-27 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hilary Weston Writers' Trust Prize for Nonfiction — Shortlisted On April 5, 1999, Serbian police found a truck half-submerged in the Danube River. When they looked inside, they found it filled with human bodies. Following orders, they hid the truck and its contents. Two weeks later, on the other side of Serbia, the same thing happened. The full picture would only emerge years later, when the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia investigated and prosecuted the chief architects of the ethnic cleansing of Kosovo. These cases, which formally came to a close in 2014, exposed a secret campaign to hide terrible crimes by transporting and concealing the bodies of the dead. In Tell It to the World, Eliott Behar, a former war crimes prosecutor, tells the true story of what unfolded. He examines the causes and consequences of mass violence, identifying a powerful and disturbing connection between the justice we seek and the injustices we commit.

Download or read book Stevan Dedijer written by Stevan Dedijer and published by Nordic Academic Press. This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stevan Dedijer (19112004) was born as a Serb in Bosnia-Her�egovina by politically active parents. After a childhood marked by the assassination of Arch-duke Frans Ferdinand in June 1914 and the catastrophe of the First World War, Stevan entered a life-long strange odyssey through the ideas and institutions of a turbulent century. As an immigrant in the U.S. during the Great Depression, Stevan joined the Communist Party. With party consent he was recruited by the secret U.S. intelligence service OSS and was trained for sabotage mission in the Nazi-occupied Yugoslavia. Purged from the OSS, he volunteered for the Army, and was assigned to the 101st airborne as a bodyguard for the divisional commander general Maxwell Taylor. Arriving too late for the Normandy landing, he parachuted over Arnhem in the failed Operation Market Garden. Still under party orders, he bailed out yelling, 'Long live Stalin!'. After seeing extensive combat around Bastogne, in the Battle of the Bulge, Stevan was transferred from the US Army to the Tito Partisan movement that he had wanted to join since the beginning of the war. Together with his elder brother Vladimir, Stevan made a lightning career in post-war Yugoslavia, including posts as editor-in-chief of the party newspaper Borba and the directorship of the Yugoslav Atomic Energy Institute, the latter assignment given to him he had studied physics at Princeton in the mid-1930s. After Tito's break with Moscow and the violent crackdown on dissidents in the 1950s, Stevan as several others in the new communist elite became increasingly critical of Tito's dictatorship and the lack of freedom. Purged and put in internal exile, Stevan finally managed to escape Yugoslavia through an invitation to the Niels Bohr Institute in Copenhagen, arranged by the Swedish professor of nuclear physics Torsten Gustafson in Lund. With his assistance and contacts, Stevan was granted political asylum in Sweden and was able to establish himself at Lund University, where he founded what was to become the Research Policy Institute. Leaving nuclear physics behind, Stevan now moved into the field of information and knowledge production, formulating the concept of a coming information explosion decades before it became common knowledge. Formulating a theory of Social Intelligence, Stevan foresaw the coming of an age where individuals and organisations alike would become dependent on their ability to collect, process and use information. Stevan Dedijers work in the field of social intelligence made him one of the pioneers and inspirers of the development of business intelligence, relying on the increased information from open sources. His life-span made a full circle as he after the fall of communism returned to Yugoslavia and the city of Dubrovnik, not far from where his father had been born more than a century earlier. As a twist of fate, Stevan was to experience the third war of his life, My most horrible war' as he writes in this breathtaking, humorous and self-reflecting account of a human life shaped by the horrors and promises of twentieth century history, and a personality characterised by determination, curiosity and an astonishing absence of self-pity.
Book Synopsis Ethnic American Food Today by : Lucy M. Long
Download or read book Ethnic American Food Today written by Lucy M. Long and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2015-07-17 with total page 741 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ethnic American Food Today introduces readers to the myriad ethnic food cultures in the U.S. today. Entries are organized alphabetically by nation and present the background and history of each food culture along with explorations of the place of that food in mainstream American society today. Many of the entries draw upon ethnographic research and personal experience, giving insights into the meanings of various ethnic food traditions as well as into what, how, and why people of different ethnicities are actually eating today. The entries look at foodways—the network of activities surrounding food itself—as well as the beliefs and aesthetics surrounding that food, and the changes that have occurred over time and place. They also address stereotypes of that food culture and the culture’s influence on American eating habits and menus, describing foodways practices in both private and public contexts, such as restaurants, groceries, social organizations, and the contemporary world of culinary arts. Recipes of representative or iconic dishes are included. This timely two-volume encyclopedia addresses the complexity—and richness—of both ethnicity and food in America today.
