An investigation of Afrocentric business ethics is long overdue. Attempting to understand the actions and efforts of informal traders and artisans from their own points of view, and analysing how they organise and get by, allows for viable approaches to be identified to integrate them into global urban models and cultures. Using the utu-ubuntu model to understand the activities of traders and artisans in Nairobi's markets, this book explores how, despite being consistently excluded and disadvantaged, they shape urban spaces in and around the city, and contribute to its development as a whole. With immense resilience, and without discarding their own socio-cultural or economic values, informal traders and artisans have created a territorial complex that can be described as the African metropolis. African Markets and the Utu-buntu Business Model sheds light on the ethics and values that underpin the work of traders and artisans in Nairobi, as well as their resilience and positive impact on urbanisation. This book makes an important contribution to the discourse on urban economics and planning in African cities.African Markets and the Utu-buntu Business Model Informal sector (Economics)Informal sector (Economics)330Kinyanjui Mary Njeri719546NjHacINjHaclBOOK9910476794903321African Markets and the Utu-buntu Business Model3364650UNINA04525nam 22008415 450 991097798180332120250530192430.09783031773105303177310110.1007/978-3-031-77310-5(CKB)37447534800041(MiAaPQ)EBC31896260(Au-PeEL)EBL31896260(DE-He213)978-3-031-77310-5(OCoLC)1499721918(EXLCZ)993744753480004120250204d2024 u| 0engur|||||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierWorking with Spirituality in Family Systemic Practice Including Clients' Spiritual Life in Therapeutic Work /by Åse Holmberg, Per Jensen1st ed. 2024.Cham :Springer Nature Switzerland :Imprint: Palgrave Macmillan,2024.1 online resource (233 pages)Palgrave Texts in Counselling and Psychotherapy,2662-91359783031773099 3031773098 1.

A map of spiritual literacy -- 9. Some concluding remarks.Spirituality has offered people across cultures and continents a source of comfort and meaning for millennia and is closely connected to the human body through our emotions, our behaviour and our relationships. The concept today is considered broader than religion and can encompass our innate need for love, hope, values and direction in life. While spiritual belief can foster recovery and resilience in times of crisis, spiritual distress can also contribute to physical, emotional and relational problems. Despite its relevance, most family therapists are not trained to incorporate spiritual and religions issues in therapy. Based on the author’s extensive research on this topic, this book offers an overview of current theory as well as practical elements designed to help practitioners develop their spiritual literacy in their work with clients.
