During this era of cultural change and political polarization, the expansion, bureaucratization, and computerization of population surveillance disrupted the norms that had governed the exchange and use of personal information in earlier decades and gave rise to a set of distinctly postindustrial social conflicts centered on the use of personal information as a means of social governance in the welfare state. Combining vast archival research with a groundbreaking theoretical analysis, this book gives a definitive account of the politics of personal information in West Germany at the dawn of the information society. ![]() Last updated 1/2018 MP4 | Video: h264, 1280x720 | Audio: AAC, 44.1 KHz Language: English | Size: 5.71 GB | Duration: 9h 12m ![]() Published 8/2022 MP4 | Video: h264, 1280x720 | Audio: AAC, 44.1 KHz Language: English | Size: 982.55 MB | Duration: 1h 15m ![]() Personal Finance Magazine - August 2022 English | 68 pages | True PDF | 40.7 MB ![]() Jean Houston PhD Ph.D., Marianne Williamson, "The Hero and the Goddess: The Odyssey as Pathway to Personal Transformation" English | 2006 | ISBN: 0835608786 | PDF | pages: 490 | 3.2 mb All great stories can change our lives, and practically none is more transformational than Homer's The Odyssey, which had a power so great that it launched Greek civilization and has influenced the West ever since. In this fresh approach to self-realization, human potentials leader Jean Houston provides empowering experiential exercises at every key stage of Homer's epic to make The Odyssey our own journey. As we set sail with Odysseus, together we endure loss and suffering, the search for the divine Beloved, and the joy of finally arriving home. "Tapping the power of these archetypes," says Houston, "helps us effect healing in areas that have kept us immobilized and anguished. By raising our own tragic dimension to a mythic level, we awaken to a larger, nobler life." ![]() Practical Pursuits: Religion, Politics, and Personal Cultivation in Nineteenth-Century Japan By Janine Anderson Sawada 2004 | 400 Pages | ISBN: 082482752X | PDF | 8 MB The idea that personal cultivation leads to social and material well-being became widespread in late Tokugawa Japan (1600-1868). Practical Pursuits explores theories of personal development that were diffused in the early nineteenth century by a network of religious groups in the Edo (Tokyo) area, and explains how, after the Meiji Restoration of 1868, the leading members of these communities went on to create ideological coalitions inspired by the pursuit of a modern form of cultivation. Variously engaged in divination, Shinto purification rituals, and Zen practice, these individuals ultimately used informal political associations to promote the Confucian-style assumption that personal improvement is the basis for national prosperity.This wide-ranging yet painstakingly researched study represents a new direction in historical analysis. Where previous scholarship has used large conceptual units like Confucianism and Buddhism as its main actors and has emphasized the discontinuities in Edo and Meiji religious life, Sawada addresses the history of religion in nineteenth-century Japan at the level of individuals and small groups. She employs personal cultivation as an interpretive system, crossing familiar boundaries to consider complex linguistic, philosophical, and social interconnections. ![]() Personal Branding in the Knowledge Economy: The Inter-relationship between Corporate and Employee Brands |
