 Official Statistics-A Plaything of Politics?: On the Interaction of Politics, Official Statistics, and Ethical Principles by Reimund Mink English | PDF,EPUB | 2023 | 394 Pages | ISBN : 3031046234 | 42 MB This book describes official statistics as a tool to hold up a mirror to society - but also as an instrument for those who can manipulate this mirror. It addresses the precarious interaction of politics, official statistics, and ethical principles. Three sets of themes can be derived from this relationship, which are the focus of this book: Political systems and guiding principles, official statistics as a science of the state, and ethical issues arising from them. Ultimately, the determining factor is the political system that exists in each case.  Objects and Frontiers in Modern Asia: Between the Mekong and the Indus By Lipokmar Dzüvichü (editor), Manjeet Baruah (editor) 2019 | 232 Pages | ISBN: 1138616079 | PDF | 3 MB Focusing on the geographies between the Mekong and the Indus, this book brings objects to the centre of enquiry in the understanding of modern Asian frontiers. It explores how a range of objects have historically been significant bearers and agents of frontier making. For instance, how are objects connected to aspects of state making, social change, everyday life, diplomacy, political and ecological worlds, capital, forms of violence, resistances, circulations, and aesthetic expressions?This book seeks to interrogate and understand the dynamism of frontiers from the vantage point of objects such as salt, rubber, tea, guns, silk scarves, horses, and opium. It attempts to explore objects as sites of encounter, mediation, or dislocation between the social and the spatial. The book not only locates objects in the specificities of frontier spaces, but it also looks at how they are produced, circulated, and come to be intricately linked to a wide range of people, institutions, networks, and geographies. In the process, it explores how objects traverse and come to inhabit multiple historical, cultural, and geographical scales. This book will be of interest to researchers and academics working in areas of history, social and cultural anthropology, Asian studies, frontiers and borderland studies, cultural studies, political and economic studies, and museum studies.

Salem Press, Robert Carmichael, "Notable Natural Disasters, Second Edition" English | 2017 | ISBN: 1682173321 | PDF | pages: 1196 | 117.8 mb A chronological survey of more than 100 of the worst disasters in history, including such recent events as the 2015 Mount Everest avalanches, 2015 Nepal earthquake, and Super Storm Sandy. Previously published in Salem Press s Magill s Choice series (2007), this edition is updated and expanded.

Some books about disasters focus on the science, using events as examples but without providing detailed narrative descriptions of what happened. Disaster chronologies, on the other hand, describe events in varying degrees of detail, but generally do not offer a look at the underlying scientific principles and other general concerns. This book was conceived to address both aspects in an accessible manner that is scholarly rather than sensationalized. The three-volume set combines clearly explained scientific concepts with gripping narrative details about 163 significant disastrous events from history. Notable Natural Disasters, 2nd edition, is illustrated with ample photographs, maps, tables and diagrams to aid the reader. Volume 1 includes 23 overviews of significant natural events that are frequently involved in disasters: Avalanches Heat Waves Blizzards, Freezes, Ice Storms Hail Hurricanes Typhoons & Cyclones Droughts Icebergs & Glaciers Dust Storms & Sandstorms Land-, Mud-, & Rockslides Earthquakes El Niño Meteorites & Comets Epidemics Smog Explosions Tornadoes Famines Tsunamis Fires Volcanic Eruptions Floods Wind Gusts Fog Each overview focuses on scientific explanation, opening with a few sentences that define the natural phenomena and its importance. Several sections follow, including: Science: explains the science behind the phenomenon in general terms understandable to the layperson; Geography: gives the names and descriptions of the continents, countries, regions, or types of locations where the phenomena occur; Prevention and Preparations: describes measures that can be taken to prevent or predict disasters to avoid or minimize the loss of life and property, including drills, warning systems, and evacuation orders; Rescue and Relief Efforts: explains what is done in the aftermath of disasters to find and treat casualties, including typical wounds received and any special challenges faced by rescue workers. This section also includes efforts of relief organizations and programs; Impact: describes the typical short-term and long-term effects on humans, animals, property, and the environment of these phenomena; Historical Overview: gives a broad sense of the disaster type beginning with the first recorded occurrences and offering highlights of notable events up to the present day; Milestones: a table of major events, such as significant disasters, relevant scientific discoveries, and establishment dates for programs, organizations, and classification systems.

 Marlene Chism, "No-Drama Leadership: How Enlightened Leaders Transform Culture in the Workplace" English | ISBN: 1629560618 | 2015 | 224 pages | EPUB | 2 MB Choice. Power. Speed. Today's leaders continually face these forces. But with too many choices, too much power, and too much speed, leaders often make decisions in a heightened state of emotion (and drama). Hasty decisions are often poor ones and in this climate there is no place to hide. Privacy is a thing of the past; the days of covering up or ignoring a problem are over. In today's transparent culture, the decision making of leaders is more vulnerable then ever-and it is more critical than ever to get it right. Marlene Chism's No-Drama Leadership introduces just the model the corporate world needs. Using case studies, checklists, and examples from various levels of hierarchy in leadership and from a variety of industries, Chism introduces the mindset shifts and practical skills needed to develop enlightened leaders, whose decision making flows from a much more grounded and aligned place. You will learn how to: Identify the signs of misalignment Increase your leadership effectiveness Use four quadrants of change as a catalyst for leadership growth Increase employee engagement Tap into the gifts and talents of your employees Communicate strategically Create a culture of accountability Increase innovation and productivity through empowerment Today's leader needs more than position, power, or business acumen. Today's leader needs more than self-management, communication skills, or emotional intelligence. We need leaders who are aligned, aware, and accountable, who balance choice and power with wisdom and responsibility-leaders who embrace and embody both the inner game of leadership growth with the outer game of business results, modeling both the mindsets and actions that transform the cultures they lead.

 Ninth Art. Bande dessinée, Books and the Gentrification of Mass Culture, 1964-1975 English | 2023 | ISBN: 3031170008 | 284 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 71 MB In France, comics are commonly referred to as the "ninth art". What does it mean to see comics as art? This book looks at the singular status of comics in the French cultural landscape. Bandes dessinées have long been published in French newspapers and magazines. In the early 1960s, a new standard format emerged: large hardback books, called albums. Albums played a key role in the emergence of the ninth art and its acceptance among other forms of literary narrative. From Barbarella in 1964 to La Ballade de la mer salée in 1975, from Astérix and its million copies to Tintin and its screen versions, within the space of just a few years the comics landscape underwent a deep transformation. |
