Book Summary and Reflection - Constructing Local Theologies by Robert J. Schreiter

เขียนโดย Eva | 13:42

The book is divided into seven chapters dealing with the definition of local theology, a local theology, cultural studies, theology and its context (religious tradition as a local theologies), and the tradition of Christian identity, popular religion and official religion and syncretism and dual-religious systems.

In the first chapter, the author makes the important shift of perspective in theology in recent years. This shift has been a focus on the role thatCircumstances play in shaping one's response to the gospel, because it was observed that the theology of the older churches of the North Atlantic community is inherited is not well adapted to these very different cultural contexts.

Three major varieties of local theology analyzed (translation, editing and contextual approaches) is not only a relationship between a cultural context, and theology to beat, but also about the relationship between theology and the community in which ittakes place. Local dialectical theology as a dynamic interaction between gospel, church and culture defined.

The second chapter focuses on how the interaction between gospel, church and culture takes place. The author uses a card to the relationships in Ortstheologien table. This serves two purposes, orientation and evaluation.

In the third chapter, the author echoes, no culture is ever so simple that a full explanation and description canbe given, nor is it always so static that all completely uniform. Once the question was found in theological reflection in the culture, is one prepared to start dialogue with the gospel of the great religious traditions. From the perspective of local theologies, there are two dimensions to this dialogue. The first is to determine the right type of discourse. The nature of the theological conclusion that the most sense is discussed for dealing with the situation at hand and makeChapter four, where they are investigating various forms of theology and its relationship to the local conditions. This chapter deals with the Christian tradition in order to facilitate the encounter between the local Christian theology and tradition. The second dimension has to do with the quality of the theological conclusion. The fifth chapter describes eleven questions, highlight the different ways some of the problems, both local and theology and the Christian tradition's face in their mutual encounter andGrowth. The overall purpose of the chapter is to come to a framework wherein a local church better to build with the tradition.

In the penultimate chapter, it is argued strongly that the local theologies are in many ways, the expressions of popular religions. Thus we must listen to people's religion, to find out what moves people in life is. " The author believes that it is only then that the local theologies can be developed, as most of the liberating power of the Gospel, isits full bloom. It should also be noted that the popular religion that developed in a culture (if they are not fully in place) shows a kind of local theology.

The ultimate part (Chapter 7) describes two other kinds of manifestations of religious belief and activity (syncretism and dual religious systems), their effect on the development of local theologies. The importance of these issues for the Christian practice is presented and some practical considerations for the approachthey are proposed.

Reflection

Schreiter is correct in his assertion that "the Christian tradition, too precious to be squandered an inheritance too lightly or easily treated. But without his other incarnations in the municipalities, it will be treasure buried in the ground to produce a profit" (103 ). Undoubtedly, the book is a very good and practical tool that clearly teaches how to understand culture, it suggests that the message of the gospel roots.This is the most important consideration for researchers during the period when he taught a course history of Christianity in West Africa to West Africa Theological Seminary, Lagos, Nigeria. An evaluation of Christianity from the Portuguese discoveries in the fifteenth century to the mid-seventh century, shows that there is a relative failure of the missionaries in the presentation of the Gospel. Although issues such as malaria, the impact of imperialism and the massBaptisms, rivalries, language barriers and finance, to name just a few names could be listed and can not be underestimated, the issue of an understanding of the culture of West Africa. The Catholics demanded monogamy from their show changes but not, as the unwanted women could be located. If so, they are separated from the men when they condemned such customs and practices such as polygamy, human sacrifice, images and shrines, the latter, which they will be ordered destroyedbefore the conversion, rather than later. The writer 'impressive use of illustrations, bibliographical references and index is noteworthy because it makes sense to add the quality of this invaluable text.

Recommendation

This publication is invaluable to be read by all Christians, because everyone has an opportunity, will have to present the gospel to someone from another culture.

Culture Lessons - Handshaking and the American Family

เขียนโดย Eva | 01:37

Many English speakers to leave America and other countries to teach English abroad. We have learned above all Japanese students, but we have also taught a few students from Europe, Latin America, Africa and other Asian countries. American culture fascinates many of these students. These articles are two elements to inform the culture we in Japan handshake and the changing American family. Teachers of English in Japan and other countries, these items can be foundof interest to their students.

Handshaking

The American Handshake has several basic components. The first important element is that the handshake is fast. First, the hand is moved up, then down, and then returns to the starting position. The handshake is not engaged in pumping. It is also an exercise held in the hand. The handshake data back to the extension of your hand so the person that she knows that no weapon operation. The second is that a handshake should be firm, is not carvedCompetition to prove your strength.

Not all Americans have mastered these two concepts. Some Americans pump hands up and down. Others try to prove their strength. Most Americans, however, understand the two basic concepts. Many held abroad, making a negative impression with the Americans, when they shake hands. We teach our students that the handshake can be important for many Americans. The impression they make when shaking hands can influence their future relations.

The handshake --and varieties. Some people use the left hand to the other person while shaking his hand covering his right hand. Many people think this shows more sincerity. The handshake also has some residual gender issues. A long time ago, shaking hands, men, not women. Today, almost all men and women shaking hands.

Read more about the hand can be a little dry and lacking in clarity. If you are teaching abroad, you can try to talk and shaking hands to demonstrate. Then your students havePractice. For teaching ESL in America and other English speaking countries, this may also fundamental for many students. For students just arrived, but can such statements and cultural tips, help with practice.

The new American family

Not so long ago, many thought the typical American family as father, mother and two children in the suburbs. Every morning his father would go to work to keep the mother at home with their children. While manyFamilies were like the picture was more an ideal than a reality or cliché. We often look back through our rose-colored glasses, ignoring many Americans. Not all Americans were living such apparently happy suburban lives. Many women had to work. Many Americans could not afford to live in the suburbs. Not all male workers earn enough to support families. Not all Americans married. Some families were single mothers and grandparents were growing up the children in some families. Single people, gayBeen men, and the color, but they were mentioned only rarely.

America has changed since then. The vast majority of Americans realize that there are many types of families. The image is of a white family with a stay-at-home mother, a working father and two children, has faded. Americans now families with two gay parents, families with single mothers or single fathers, interracial families, and other types of families. You see, many people also live alone. Many Americans havegreater acceptance of other forms of life, and the Americans are with those other forms of life now open about their life patterns. This family diversity appear in movies, television shows, and books. Some people may still have problems accepting them all, but America has a long way since the days when there was the image coming from the S family.

If you teach English abroad, given the reaction of students and their interest in these issues are theirBackground and knowledge. These issues can not be the right ones for your students. If not, your challenge is to find the right one. Almost all English students around the world are interested in culture, which is used in English. English is more than one language, students want to learn the culture.

Create the Right Family Culture and Good Behaviour is Easy

เขียนโดย Eva | 13:34

As an avid football fan, I have the recent debacle with a local football team, that saw two players suspended fascinated by the club until the end of the season. The two players were involved in a car accident after a drinking binge. Then lied about the nature of their participation, which severely embarrassed the club, leading to their suspension.

Since this is not the first time a player from this team have been in dispute, the entire culture that exists in the Club is being called into question.

Poor behavior is endemic in the rule, unless the culture of the group is changed.

The general consensus is that players off-field behavior of the poor do not change until the club culture changes. The leadership group must work hard to create a culture that encourages the right behavior.

The same principle applies to families.

If parents are to promote justice> Culture within their family, then the behavior of children will be generally in line with this culture. This requires the parents to be effective leaders of the family and not only be competent managers of children's behavior.

About what kind of culture we focus on?

There is no question that the family's culture, which has the best outcomes for children, one that promotes the following values:

(1) SharedResponsibility: As a family business will share decisions, responsibilities, joys and problems.
(2) equality: Parents and children have the same rights to be heard and to influence others.
(3) Mutual Respect: We treat each other fairly and respectfully. This occurs when we listen to each other, do not use mine depreciation and take interest in each other.
(4) Self-discipline: It's about personal responsibility. ParentsTeaching children that respect for order, control their impulses, regulate their behavior within certain limits and develop an understanding of the rights of others.
(5) Cooperation: Cooperation is a group-oriented approach and is a two-way thing, considering where the children how their behavior impacts on others. Cooperation is obtained will not be forced or bought.

The challenge for parents, of course, that the board not easy. They work with children, take the L-plates when it comes with one another. They are not small adults. They are children!

But this give parents a clear advantage. In the first seven or eight years of life, children are like sponges, soaking up the prevailing values and messages from the significant adults in their lives. To make the most of this opportunity years is the key. The messages get children do not get very meaningful because they move toward adolescence.

The most appropriate parenting positive impact on family life> Culture is the authoritative leadership style. This style usually includes three major aspects:

(1) building relationships and encouraging
(2) limit-setting and accountability
(3) involvement of children in the family business

The third aspect of this list is perhaps the biggest challenge for most modern parents. That children have a voice in the family is a good management principal as children are more likelyStick to decisions that they had a say to make.

But how do parents know that this happens?

Regular Roundtables family is the solution. They provide opportunities for families to share and give the children a regular input in a structured way.

Family Roundtables are brilliant vehicle for parents, strong and vibrant cultures in their families to create. They are best in the Opportunity years (from age 4 to 10) and they take some effortBut the returns in terms of outcomes for children, with a view to creating stronger, harmonious families, and in order to reduce parental stress are massive.

Four Reasons It Is Important To Preserve Iroquois Culture

เขียนโดย Eva | 01:33

It is important to preserve culture and heritage of each heterogeneous group of people, because the story can really shape the future. It is much easier to understand philosophy and current day events when you start a base of understanding from which to. Ancient cultures and past events form the framework, with reference to the here and now. This particularly applies to the examination of the Iroquois culture. There are four main reasons why it is especially importantTo preserve Iroquois culture.

1. The Iroquois were probably the most important Native American tribe on the continent of North America. The United States and Canada, their forms of government modeled after the structure and organization of the Iroquois Confederacy shown.

The first 200 years of American and Canadian history are imbued with a system for a remarkable similarity to the Iroquois-style of management of affairs. Part of the success of the Iroquois' is aligned withtheir organizational skills, as well as by their desire to do the things in unity and with a sense of purpose. The Iroquois were the first group with a method of checks and balances in their leadership style. Can Despite what are widely believed to be true, the Europeans learned more from the Iroquois than vice versa. This is a known fact, since these structure was in place of the Iroquois, before a European connection has been made and share.

2. The United StatesConstitution and the Articles of Confederation are generally structured in accordance with the rules and regulations of the tribe of the Iroquois.

We would not have the documents that we have today or the structure of our society, if not for the future Iroquois people. The documents, which govern the entire United States was created through the efforts of the Iroquois Nation and all of the tribes.

3. The culture of Native Americans in shaping the religious paththe United States.

Through the influence of the Jesuits, French, the Iroquois began the assimilation of their Indian traditions with the Catholic-Christian beliefs and principles that are always dominant with the influx of settlers.

Handsome Lake, a Seneca religious leader and prophet, had three visions - some called it supernatural visualizations. Commitment from these visions, he had to persuade the Iroquois to retain their traditional Native AmericanBeliefs, while the inclusion of some Christian principles as well. This combination was needed for the Iroquois begin to grow again in a culture that had changed in the middle of the influx of so many new citizens.

4. The Iroquois legends are a part of history and should be remembered and told.

There is a legend, the story of how Deganawida hid the sun at any unenthusiastic Iroquois nation, tribe members to convince, says the plan for the formation of the Iroquois to joinLeague. There have been suggestions that may help a solar eclipse at the time Deganawida hide the SO is reported to have been possible, a solar eclipse in upstate New York in 1451, which may have occurred, or may not have set the stage for this spectacle . In any case, it has worked with the founding of the League, the Iroquois tribes had 130 years of peace and prosperity. This is not to say they had no wars against other nations in this time because they did, buteach other, they were united.

Preservation is always an important part of history and the future. For more information about The Code of Handsome Lake and the visions of attending a role in the history of the recovery of the Seneca, please http://www.ad-hoc-productions.com/index.html played.

The Culture Equation - Taking the Mystery Out of Organizational Culture

เขียนโดย Eva | 13:14

Groundbreaking studies such as books, Jim Collins, "The Last and Good to Great John Kotter's book, Corporate Culture and Performance have developed shows that the culture of a company's operating style and form strong positive (or negative) may carry out remedial work groups All arts organizations and was an overly complex and somewhat mysterious topic for most organizations. The Breckenridge Institute ® has identifiedElements of organizational culture and it is formulated in a culture Equation ™ that describes what organizational culture is, in simple, concrete terms (see below).

POI ↔ ↔ COI ROI = Current Results ™

Managers can use this simple equation to simultaneously improve the performance of organizational, work group, and individual employee levels. The terms of the cultural equation ™ are defined as follows:


POI = Pattern ofInteraction (Thu, informal rules, actions, interactions, group-learning)
COI = Context of Interaction (Say, formal rules, structures, systems, location)
ROI = Archives of the interaction (tacit assumptions, belief structure, meaning, history)
Actual Results: The actual results of an organization Gets, but not its targets

The main finding is that organizational culture is, of all four terms in the equation, with each semester a significant (but) interdependentGroup of companies to interact with the other, an organization of financial and non-financial results achieved. It is the combination of the four concepts, the organizational culture and creates many managers experience this interaction as visible Bureaucracy ™ of culture.

The culture of a company is created, consolidated and strengthened described by the strong involvement mechanisms. The strength of this embedding mechanism shows: a)how strong is the culture, b) is as explicit (or implicit), the teaching and / or a message from the culture, and c) and intentional (or unintentional), the actions and interactions of culture.


Primary Embedding Mechanisms: Formal and informal rewards are the most important mechanisms to improve the embedding the culture of a company because they bring what actions and interactions actually established, such as what people should be their time, energy and concentration to defineResources. What does an organization, it is rewarded formally) COI (but what is actually being rewarded POI (informal) and the informal rewards have the strongest impact on job creation, strengthening and maintenance of organizational culture. In fact, the greater the gap between the POI and COI, the stronger is the embedding of its effect.
Secondary Embedding Mechanisms: These include organizational design (structures and systems), geographic location, the physical space, decoration, equipment,Equipment, rules, procedures, formal statements about the core ideology (purpose, core values) and philosophy. These are mainly to strengthen COI, but what do these elements "(ROI) within a given culture, and the actual day-to-day activities to strengthen (POI) in this context, and to embed the concept of COI ™ in the above-mentioned cultural equation.
Tertiary Embedding Mechanisms: The purpose of culture "teach" to see how people "" the world, and the third is the embeddingMechanism is, as has been done, for example, through apprenticeships, training, indoctrination and interpretation of what POI, COI and the latest findings mean in the context of "culture" (that's not how we do it or see it, to here). Organizational rituals, ceremonies, traditions, heroes, stories and important historical events are also tertiary embedding mechanisms. These are primarily ROI, but also to the other conditions in the culture equation ™ application. ROI isthe most difficult mechanism to directly change through education, training, indoctrination, and interpretation of events in organizational life, because the tacit beliefs and assumptions on which ROI is formed naturally (unconsciously) as a result of observation of the interaction of POI within the COI.
Repeat: Over time, the daily repeated experience of POI, COI, ROI, and the current results help to migrate these cultural elements into autopilot operationsand finally they are the organization's reality, as it is, for example, to here.

Most theorists of the cultural focus on one or two terms in the equation Culture ™ as the main factors that define organizational culture, but few systematic consideration of all four concepts and their mutual dependence on each other. For example, Edgar Schein focuses primarily on the tacit beliefs and assumptions (ROI) and the context in which they occur (COI), David Hanna focusesobserved primarily on the work habits and attitudes to explain how the organizational culture really works, for example, the interaction between the POI and COI as producing a company's actual results, and John P. Kotter and James Heskett Focus Shortcut Latest results to the degree of flexibility in the POI as I found in Theory: Strong Cultures, Theory II: Strategic appropriate cultures and theory III: Adaptive cultures.

Culture Equation ™ can be applied allOrganizations of every size in every industry in every country, regardless of their governance structure (for-profit, non-profit, government), the products and / or services produced, the number of sites and corporate life-cycle phase. Organizational culture may consist of two very different but interdependent perspectives that are reflective of the Individual Collective Paradox ™, are analyzed, for example, organizations that are collective, cultural institutions are led, managed and changed on a personTime:

Bottoms up analysis
Tops-Down Analysis

A top-down analysis focuses on culture from the perspective of the collective common pattern of poi, COI and ROI to make powerful that the actions and interactions of managers and employees. From this perspective, the culture of emergent properties, which is the form of patterns, structures and processes to take over that are not directly reducible to the actions, interactions and personalities of individual managers and employeesMembers, although executives and key employees (culture-carriers) a stronger impact on job creation, strengthening and preservation of cultural norms.

A bottom-up analysis looks at culture from the perspective of the building blocks of culture in groups of 2s, 3s and 4s, to be consistent with the primary themes: a) the fact that over 85% of the sources of performance problems and conflicts in working groups come from countries outside the work group in the structures of the organization,Systems and culture. From this perspective, can the actions, interactions and personalities of individual managers and employees do not "add up" to collective cultural norms are equal, although executives and key employees have (culture carriers) a stronger impact on job creation, strengthening and maintaining the elements of culture.

When a work group or organization is more or less successful at producing revenue and addressing the challenges of the companyEnvironment, is the pattern that the conditions in the culture Equation ™ and is represented on autopilot, as we are talking in the neighborhood. Achieved over time, an organization that the specific configuration of the Culture Equation ™ a state of equilibrium and frozen in a business environment that exerts forces defined on the company. As David Hanna says, all organizations are perfectly matched to the results they get, get! For better or worse, the systemfinds a way of balancing its activities to achieve certain results. When new employees are recruited, they are forced to their own ways of the world from former jobs with what this organization and try to compare significance of this way of working together. Experienced staff have internalized the organization views and working conditions, long ago, so they make on auto pilot and powerful account their decisions. Employees who do not (or not) way to internalize this company View and working in the cultural equation ™ as codified in the rule does not remain in an organization.

Bottom Line: Whether it is a leader of the founder of a new company or an upper or middle manager in a well established company, one of its main tasks is to create, manage and (if necessary) to organizational culture in order to destroy in order to desired outcomes for the organization or work group. The exact definition of culture in the illustrated> Culture Equation ™ and the embedding procedure described above to give executives and managers with a powerful set of tools to do so.

Science, Culture and Society: Understanding Science in the 21st Century Review




Science, Culture and Society: Understanding Science in the 21st Century Feature



Science, Culture and Society: Understanding Science in the 21st Century Overview


What is science? 'Science, Culture and Society' tackles this difficult question. We used to be quite certain about science, and science used to be quite certain about the world: it was the form of knowledge and set of practical activities that would allow us to unravel the 'mysteries of creation' and the 'laws of nature'. Yet despite the important contribution made by science to today's knowledge economies and knowledge societies, it is considered by many to be remote, and even dangerous. As science becomes more important, we have less understanding of what science actually is. 'Science, Culture and Society' attempts to redress this knowledge gap and to provide an alternative framework for making sense of science. The book addresses key questions of what science is and how it is carried out, what the relationship between science and society is, how science is represented in contemporary culture, and how scientific institutions are structured. Drawing on methods from cultural studies and sociology the book locates science in a social and cultural perspective and provides a wide-ranging introduction to the social and cultural dimensions of science.

Designed as a primary text for undergraduates at all levels it will be key reading on courses in the sociology of science, cultural studies of science and technology, philosophy of science, and science and technology studies.

Fun Things to Do in Chicago

เขียนโดย Eva | 01:09

Want to miss Chicago Things to Do - The fun stuff you do not.

Sport plays a very big indeed part of the daily culture played. In addition to the areas and the actual games, the energetic atmosphere of the city enough to want to make any couch potato to get up and hit the batting cages.

Wrigley Field when the Cubs game has a very young and excitable atmosphere, popular with students and avid Cubs fans in equal measure. A trip to Chicago during the season would probably notcomplete without a game and eating hot one of Chicago's famous dogs (ps. no ketchup!).

U.S. Cellular Field where the White Sox play, is a child-friendly park, where kids can watch a football match and in some fun activities, go to the pleasure. It is easier to get tickets to a Sox game instead of the Cubs, and you get discounted tickets on Monday and Tuesday. Thursday is $ 1 hot dog day, yeahh!

Soldier Field is the home field for the Chicago Bears FootballTeam and the United Center is home to the Chicago Bulls basketball team. This center is also home to Blackhawks in the NHL, so that there is to see a load to win.

If you do not want much in the sports side of things to do would be a classic Chicago could sail right for you. A summer afternoon on Lake Michigan is as beautiful as it sounds (as long as we dare not be too far from the sea) famous treacherous under even the most experienced of the sea creatures. If youdo not have a boat, there are many water taxis that you can choose between your destinations, or you can do a water tour through many different ferry companies.

Chicago is also where the infamous Al "Scarface" Capone created his headquarters after moving from New York and went from small time crooks to a notorious crime figure. Capone ruled the city until it of tax evasion in the 1930s, not the countless murders they also tried to pin him arrested.

Celebrate the man whoChicago dark and sexy, Untouchable Times and tours offer fun and lighthearted look at Capone, and the prohibition of time to his rule. They will provide you about all sorts of interesting places (murder sites) and you get the dubious shadow world of Chicago in the 1930s to see.

Also on the dramatic side of things, you probably already know that Chicago is world famous for its world-class theater, music and dance performances. Tickets can go for half price if youTitle in the last minute, and there are plenty of places to find a quick bargain, as www.hottix.org. They always find tickets for the hottest musicals, theater, opera, orchestra and ballet in this city, so if you're a culture buff, you probably do not want to ever leave. When you begin to somewhere, (obviously), the Downtown Theater District is where you need to be.

Book Review - The Organizational Culture Perspective by Steven Ott

เขียนโดย Eva | 00:59

This book is more or less a textbook on the organizational culture. It was written with an aim of creating awareness about the nature, structure, elements, approaches, methods, functions, and the manner of thinking of organizational culture. In addition, this book is a "cry after the outbreak of the information systems / logical positivist / quasi-experimental form, that has brought a spiritual and emotional straitjacket of organizational theory and theorists For many years (ix). "As is clear from this statement, this book was written at a time as an organizational culture perspective just begun to gain in importance and organizational theory has only just begun to move on structures.

We divide the book into two halves. First four chapters discuss the general concepts and terminology used in the field of organizational culture. In addition, sources for the origin, development and maintenance of> Culture are also discussed. The second half of the book describes the development of cultural perspectives and methodological approaches to the study of culture in organizations.

Although the concepts associated with this perspective are often used, is the distinction between different concepts is not clear to everyone. Therefore, it would be useful to summarize all the conditions here in one or two sentences. First, "culture of the organization, whichPersonality is the individual or covert unifying theme that provides meaning, direction, and mobilization. "It consists of shared values, beliefs, assumptions, perceptions, norms, symbols, artifacts, and patterns of behavior.

Secondly, we will now define each of these concepts. "Symbols" are evidence that suggests greater importance than they express themselves and a lot more than its actual content. "Embody and combine symbols representing broader patterns of meaning and lead people towith ideas, which in turn provide them with their deeper, richer and often an emotional appeal purposes (21). "Artefacts are tangible and intangible objects and structures (eg, dress code & Annual Meeting Warrant) that communicate, intentionally or unintentionally to general information about the organizational technology, beliefs, values, etc., language, jargon, myths are stories, metaphors, organizational scripts, rites and legends included in the concept ofArtifacts.

Three behavioral patterns relate to routine activities such as rites and rituals that differ communicate through repetition information technology organization, beliefs, values and assumptions. These rituals are so powerful that they are a movement, time, location, language, govern sequence of activities participants answer, artifacts, and use metaphors and symbols that guide responses (36).

Fourth, another way to introduce these concepts is to consider them as three levelsOrganization of Culture (Schein to 54). Artifacts are level 1 They are visible, but not read to. Values and beliefs, level 2, are less visible than artifacts. They are verifiable in the physical environment, but only by social consensus. Basic assumption, Level 3, are the least visible and are taken for granted. These levels are in the shaping of cultural change and the importance of research strategies. A macro-organizational theorists would be located on level 3 and behaviorism at the level1.

Fifth, organizational cultures are not monolithic, which takes place, the concept of sub-cultures. "All institutions of all sizes have subcultures, bags, where the organizational culture varies to some extent by the culture in other pockets of the dominant culture (45)."

Load, sources of origin of the culture come from three categories: the broader social culture, is in the organization, type of business organizationEnvironmental values of the founders or early dominant leaders. Recruitment (or anticipatory socialization), training) (socialization, the removal of deviants and incentives and control structures (reinforcement) are the means to perpetuate the company culture.

Once the basic concepts concerning the organizational culture, clarified, we turn our attention to the issue of research in this area. If organizational culture as espoused beliefs and values, then definequasi-experimental design with questionnaires, surveys and interviews can be used. However, if the organizational culture as a basic underlying assumptions is defined, and whether significant differences between espoused and operational values are present longitudinal and qualitative research methods or ethnographic paradigm is needed. It is better to collect information from such sources with multiple sources) triangulation (eg, archiving of data. The researchers must be on the lookout for physicalArtifacts, archival records, "Language", myths, tales, legends, etc.

Rest of the book is devoted to discussion of the various theories and schools of the organization and the growth of organizational culture paradigm. Several schools are discussed, including classical school, mentoring, s, human resources, school systems perspective, communication) perspective, bureaucracy and decision-making models (including the power politics paradigm.

Finally, I mustnot to mention the sources of growth of the organizational culture perspective. "The overarching concept of culture seems to be consistent with the classical philosopher Bernard Chester (1938), emerged claiming the importance of norms and moral codes in infusion organizations with value-systems (172). Selznick (1957), McGregor (1960), Schein (1961), Jacques (1952) and Whyte (1956) are other classical thinkers, who gave impetus to the prospect. In addition to dissatisfaction with the structuralApproaches to organizational studies, the external events, which had generated interest in the perspective of "the relative ease with which Chinese brainwashing of U.S. POWs in Korea and led to 1961 note book (177). In the 1970s, however, interest waned in cultural approach. The concept of social construction of reality and meaning (Bolman and Deal, 1984 and others) back part of the interest in the perspective to a certain extent. Periodically, there are studies inOrganization with this perspective. It is not, however, moves to the dominant streams in the organization of research, because they have the organizational studies to learn more about the concerns of the times (such as "learning organization") and partly from methodological limitations. While mainstream perspectives soft to hard with the tangible, quantitative variables, knowledge, perspective focuses more on less tangible and essential variables like implicit beliefs which arequalitative, ethnographic studies of long-term effort and low pay-off, because not many magazines that have an interest in their disclosure. That is not to diminish the value of perspective in any way!

Comic Books - More Than Pretty Pictures

เขียนโดย Eva | 12:57

Gary Phillips is a crime and mystery author. But that would limit to bring the diversity of its efforts and expressed his interest. In this article from the books of the Soul Newsletter discusses Gary writing for comic books and graphic novels.

Right off let me say that writing for comics harder than it looks. It is rather like writing a prose short story or novella. A lot of people figure it's just these crazy panels with word balloons and captions in the way ofcool art, right? To such an extent that is true. Because I am not kidding I am, comics are a visual medium, but a good script is from a mediocre or inappropriate arts suffer. However, it is the art that the script was so alive, unless you are in the ranks of the few who are talented to write and draw their own stuff like Frank Miller or Jim Starling, then you are better writers than they are firmly on marks the page for the artist to work on something, have something to enthusiastic.

The gamebetween writers and artists is the key. Take, for example, RM Guéra dark, moody art on the crime comic series Scalped created and written by Jason Aaron. Can you imagine that cat drawing, a Flash or Batman story? Okay, well, you can imagine him on a certain type of Batman story, but you see where I'm going with this. Conversely, it is not at the present time seems, because all of them and mama blogging and sites like newsarama.com and others in which comics are critical, you canwith a juicy script and cool art. The fans are too demanding and too headstrong to go the okey-doke.

In a standard comic script, the writer describes, economically and clearly what is taking place in this body. You do not have to describe on-set and it comes with too much, and also taking into account your job storytelling, nursing flow and pace and drawing in the reader as Paris Hilton, a camera. For example, panel fairly large, medium shot as Matt Murdock walksIn the courtroom, in a sharp three-piece suit, remove his dark glasses and sees with his blind eyes of the jury - a mixture of different races and clothing. Behind him at the defense table Foggy Nelson wipes his forehead with its customers, which tied up and subdued Mr. Hyde, who was sitting next to him. In the vicinity of Foggy, the windows exploded inwards, the glass waving everywhere. Matt's dialogue be cut off because there is a boom of the exploding window.

The rewrite would be, given the axiomthat a panel has frozen action rather large panel, medium shot as Matt Murdock, a sharp tightening in three, stands before the jury is seated, his dark glasses in his hand as he stared at the jury - a mixture of different body types and races, blind with his eyes. Foggy is behind him at the defense table, wiped his sweating forehead, near the place a handcuffed and subdued Mr. Hyde. Matt began his final arguments.

Second panel, moved into Foggy, still with a handkerchief as the forehead, now looksagainst the window near him that the explosion towards the inside, the glass everywhere. Mr. Hyde holds up his arms to protect themselves from the flying glass. Matt's dialogue be cut off because there is a boom of the exploding window.

The overall idea, here's the comic script about sequencing, what follows what, and when I need to better isolate an event and when it will go better for the story to cut us directly to the front is?

For more information about this I recommend WillEisner's Comics and Sequential Art and Graphic Storytelling and Visual Narrative, The DC Comics Guide to Writing Comics by Dennis O'Neil and the print version of the game, Charles Fuller, A Soldier's Story, and David Mamet's House of Games and Glengarry Glen Ross -- - What can I say? I'm big on dialogue. And while you're not crazy with the dialogue in a comic book, will you tell your characters, just the right words at the right time. While you're at it, read a couple, WalterMosley's books reveal Ross Macdonald's Lew Archer, and books for their elegance of the use of dialogue and not to disclose any character.

Gary Crime and Mystery Writers Gary Phillips' short stories appeared recently in Los Angeles Noir (Akashic) and Full House "(GP Putnam's Sons). He is a member of PEN and past national board member of Mystery Writers of America. Phillips previously wrote the comic book series from Vertigo, and for Angeltown Shot Callerz and Midnight Moverfor Oni Press, but he is best known for a series of detective novels featuring private eye Ivan Monk. He is also currently writing Citizen Kang, a weekly political thriller prose hosted on the Nation's Web site. High Rollers, a new four-issue comic book series details the creation of a Los Angeles gangster, debut in June 2008 from the boom studios.

เขียนโดย Eva | 00:30

Books have turned into a vehicle for celebrities to advance their careers. The definition of celebrity has become all of a journalist who seems to speak on Sunday at the cover illustration shows President Barack Obama, washed-up 2nd tier movie stars. Large publishing houses chasing book deals with celebrities, because at first glance, it looks like the book could be a gold mine. The myth is created by the celebrity, but the problem is a celebrity does not translate intoSales of books, unless the celebrity has the knowledge about how a book market. Also, most celebrities, of course, very conceited, and not willing to do some of the necessary things in order to market their book.

Just a normal writer, publisher and distributor of his book can only hope to achieve his or her own small network. Today, even large publishers do not invest in new books and marketing. Much of the commercialization of new books from traditional publishersis tied to an old business model, which includes the printing and distribution and warehousing of books offset. Therefore, that marketing can be considered ineffective. When a writer a book tour, for example, not so this type of advertising is not nearly as lucrative as a blog tour to talk ( "your book") on various websites. And the costs are much less for the blog tour.

The fact is, it does not matter who the author is a celebrity or ordinary writer, nothing replaces good marketingfor a book's success in selling. The individual writers are involved in the success of his book.

Large and small publishers will be guided by the media culture in those days. A small stick can press to reach a small niche like poetry, but then not many customers, and the writers are not many readers. Large presses hunt for celebrities and follow outdated business models. Publishers should be leading the American culture, not vice versa. That has always beenbeen the case to take until the mid-1980s, began as a great business publishing.

The way a book that is distributed, a large part of its potential success. The old model meant that books, bookstores were sent out first in hardcover and later in paperback. A new book was about 6 months time to become a hit and then it would come back again. The sale was a very complex process, and publishers control the entire network. These models breakdown fast, thanks to the technology and the Internet. Each book was published, some sell at least enough copies to break and hold, even the network in operation. But publishing is always about finding that 1 book from the 10 a great success, that was. The rare book that is a hit, should not be a celebrity. It is a mystery, which makes the 1 book a hit. But American pop culture does not have any inside knowledge about the answer.

World Audience Publishersis a 21st Century Publishing. In the new publication landscape new avenues for publication should be established. Publishing books by celebrities is not one of these directions. Publishers have to retake the heights, and dictate to the American culture, do not respond, because the publishers are looking for scarf in American culture these days is. This change did not happen overnight. But because of the Internet and print-on-demand technology, and even for ebooksthat matter, new business models are being invented all the time.
