Discerning Elements for Socio-economic Ethics.Barbara Paleczny, herself a daughter of garment workers, tugs at the threads of homeworking in the garment industry to reveal a low-wage strategy that rends the fabric of social integrity and exposes global trends. The resurgence of sweatshops affects the working poor in both first- and third-world countries. Paleczny assesses the responsibility of transnational retailers for unacceptable wages and working conditions and describes historic shifts in the global context of garment production. After exploring systemic causes of poverty, relevant policy setting, and ethical foundations, Paleczny introduces both short- and long-range possibilities for transformation, emphasizing the collaborative nature of work. Clothed in Integrity draws on feminist studies, alternative economics, and the ethical foundations proposed by Bernard Lonergan to fashion a constructive work in which Paleczny connects issues of societal meanings and values, moral imperatives, and economic feasibility. With candour, she shares personal stories of engagement in coalition work. Those who dwell on this text will find information, challenges, and inspiration to nurture their reflection, research, dialogue, and action.Etudes sur les femmes et la religion ;no 6.Clothing tradeMoral and ethical aspectsWomen clothing workersOntarioTorontoHome laborOntarioTorontoChristian ethicsFeminist theologyElectronic books.Clothing tradeMoral and ethical aspects.Women clothing workersHome laborChristian ethics.Feminist theology.261.8/5Paleczny Barbara970218Canadian Corporation for Studies in Religion.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910151631103321Clothed in integrity2205240UNINA03195nam 2200529Ia 450 991077965910332120230803020636.01-299-48344-50-300-18525-110.12987/9780300185256(CKB)2550000001020442(EBL)3421206(SSID)ssj0000871514(PQKBManifestationID)12358903(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000871514(PQKBWorkID)10822436(PQKB)10455305(MiAaPQ)EBC3421206(DE-B1597)486392(OCoLC)847002238(DE-B1597)9780300185256(EXLCZ)99255000000102044220121130d2013 uy 0engur|nu---|u||utxtccrFragile empire[electronic resource] how Russia fell in and out of love with Vladimir Putin /Ben JudahNew Haven Yale University Press20131 online resource (402 p.)Description based upon print version of record.0-300-18121-3 Front matter --CONTENTS --LIST OF ILLUSTRATIONS --ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS --INTRODUCTION THE WEAKEST STRONGMAN --1.

Chinese Nightmares --Conclusion: The Ghosts --NOTES --BIBLIOGRAPHY --INDEXFrom Kaliningrad on the Baltic to the Russian Far East, journalist Ben Judah has travelled throughout Russia and the former Soviet republics, conducting extensive interviews with President Vladimir Putin's friends, foes, and colleagues, government officials, business tycoons, mobsters, and ordinary Russian citizens. Fragile Empire is the fruit of Judah's thorough research: a probing assessment of Putin's rise to power and what it has meant for Russia and her people. Despite a propaganda program intent on maintaining the cliché of stability, Putin's regime was suddenly confronted in December 2011 by a highly public protest movement that told a different side of the story. Judah argues that Putinism has brought economic growth to Russia but also weaker institutions, and this contradiction leads to instability. The author explores both Putin's successes and his failed promises, taking into account the impact of a new middle class and a new generation, the Internet, social activism, and globalization on the president's impending leadership crisis. Can Russia avoid the crisis of Putinism? Judah offers original and up-to-the-minute answers.PresidentsRussia (Federation)Russia (Federation)Politics and government1991-Presidents947.086/2Judah Ben711589MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910779659103321Fragile empire1337460UNINA04213nam 2201009 a 450 991078179110332120230518013920.01-283-27820-097866132782030-520-94966-810.1525/9780520949669(CKB)2550000000045414(EBL)745421(OCoLC)755615129(SSID)ssj0000535729(PQKBManifestationID)11332259(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000535729(PQKBWorkID)10546240(PQKB)10187294(MiAaPQ)EBC745421(DE-B1597)518802(DE-B1597)9780520949669(Au-PeEL)EBL745421(CaPaEBR)ebr10492905(CaONFJC)MIL327820(EXLCZ)99255000000004541420110428d2011 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrDeep history[electronic resource] the architecture of past and present /Andrew Shryock and Daniel Lord Smail ; with Timothy Earle ...

Problems and orientations -- pt. 2. Frames for history in deep time -- pt. 3. Shared substance -- pt. 4. Human expansion.Humans have always been interested in their origins, but historians have been reluctant to write about the long stretches of time before the invention of writing. In fact, the deep past was left out of most historical writing almost as soon as it was discovered. This breakthrough book, as important for readers interested in the present as in the past,brings science into history to offer a dazzling new vision of humanity across time. Team-written by leading experts in a variety of fields, it maps events, cultures, and eras across millions of years to present a new scale for understanding the human body, energy and ecosystems, language, food, kinship, migration, and more. Combining cutting-edge social and evolutionary theory with the latest discoveries about human genes, brains, and material culture, Deep History invites scholars and general readers alike to explore the dynamic of connectedness that spans all of human history.With Timothy Earle, Gillian Feeley-Harnik, Felipe Fernández-Armesto, Clive Gamble, April McMahon, John C.
