While traditional economic theory generally assumed firms maximize profits, it has long been acknowledged that other factors may be important to understanding firm activities. The role of ethics and spirituality in society is clearly significant, yet economists have traditionally had little to say on these topics and how they intersect with economic activity. Integral Ecology integrates concerns for people and the planet. It sees the world as systemically linked to ecology, economy, equity and justice and accessible through the natural and social sciences, arts and humanities. It links to sustainable business through frugal consumption, acknowledging the intrinsic value of nature, and adopting holistic management practices.This insightful study provides the insights of economists, business scholars, philosophers, lawyers, theologians and practitioners who are working in Europe, North America, and Asia. Their contributions highlight the relationship between integral ecology and sustainable business practices, and explore the meaning of sustainability in relation to both human and non-human life, offering a series of new and invigorating approaches to sustainable business practices and sustainability leadership. 410 0$aContributions to conflict management, peace economics and development ;$vv. 26. 606 $aBusiness & Economics$xDevelopment$xSustainable Development$2bisacsh 606 $aEnvironmentalist, conservationist & Green organizations$2bicssc 606 $aEnvironmental sciences 606 $aSustainable development 606 $aSociology 615 7$aBusiness & Economics$xDevelopment$xSustainable Development. 615 7$aEnvironmentalist, conservationist & Green organizations. 615 0$aEnvironmental sciences. 615 0$aSustainable development. 615 0$aSociology. 676 $a658.4083 702 $aJakobsen$b Ove D. 702 $aZsolnai$b La?szlo? 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910796531203321 996 $aIntegral ecology and sustainable business$93835958 997 $aUNINA LEADER 02888nam 22005413 450 001 9910158769903321 005 20210901202856.0 010 $a9781786252494 010 $a178625249X 035 $a(CKB)3810000000099174 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC4807842 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL4807842 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr11348498 035 $a(OCoLC)974590519 035 $a(BIP)054260556 035 $a(Perlego)3021271 035 $a(EXLCZ)993810000000099174 100 $a20210901d2015 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcnu|||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aOperation Thursday 205 $a1st ed. 210 1$aSan Francisco :$cTannenberg Publishing,$d2015. 210 4$dİ2015. 215 $a1 online resource (42 pages) 225 1 $aThe U.S. Army Air Forces in World War II ;$vv.5 327 $aIntro -- TABLE OF CONTENTS -- OPERATION THURSDAY -- A Continent at War -- "A Hell of a Beating" -- The Allies Take the Initiative -- The "Chindits" in Operation LONGCLOTH -- Support from Churchill and Roosevelt -- The First Aerial Invasion -- The Birth of Project 9 -- Assembling a Volunteer Force -- The Best Aircraft for the Mission -- Specialized Training and Equipment -- Airmen Bound for India -- THURSDAY. -- Final Preparations -- Operation THURSDAY Dawns -- The Gliders Lift Off -- Ongoing Support -- Aerial Invasion: A Proven Concept -- Lessons Learned -- A New Dimension for Air Power. 330 8 $aIncludes 20 IllustrationsOPERATION THURSDAY -- A bold, unconventional use of American air power to support British ground troops in Burma, Operation THURSDAY marked a critical development in the history of modern warfare. On March 5-6, 1944, the Allies conducted an air invasion of Burma, in an attempt to push back the Japanese in the China-Burma-India Theater and re-establish the land route between India and China. U.S. airmen formed a special operations unit--the 1st Air Commando Group--to transport troops to jungle locations and resupply them, often in the line of fire. The remarkable success of this operation lives on, fifty years later, among the elite 1st Air Commando Group--a force committed to meeting the challenge of unconventional warfare any time, any place, anywhere. 410 4$aThe U.S. Army Air Forces in World War II 517 $aU.S. Army Air Forces in World War II 517 $aOperation Thursday 606 $aMilitary campaigns 606 $aCommando troops 615 0$aMilitary campaigns. 615 0$aCommando troops. 676 $a940.54420000000005 700 $aMason Jr$b Herbert A$01352477 701 $aBergeron$b SSgt.
