Enduring Wealth

Being Rich in This World and the Next

A to Z Series

Niki de Saint Phalle loved pseudo-orders, which she used to arbitrarily assemble terms and pictograms on a sheet of paper. Under the heading "I Love," for example, the sign of a snake could be found next to the emblem for justice, an orange spot for the corresponding color next to two stars as a symbol for astrology.

 Niki de Saint Phalle A-Z 
 takes the same liberty and puts the many facets of Niki de Saint Phalle's work into the order of the alphabet. This logical order is deceptive, though. From A as in AIDS to Z as in Zurich Angel, from B as in Bride to V as in Vanitas, a mosaic of concepts emerges that filters out the various levels of meaning in her manifold oeuvre and playfully engages them in mutual commentary.


 
 NIKI DE SAINT PHALLE (1930-2002) was one of the most important artists and sculptors of her generation. Growing up in Paris and New York, she returned to Paris in the 1950s, where she began her artistic career with her legendary "shooting" series. Her sensual female figures, the Nanas, gained her widespread popularity.&nbsp;
 Art scholar KATHARINA SYKORA (*1955) was a professor at the University of Bochum and Braunschweig University of Art from 1994 to 2018. Her fields of research include the construction of authorship, gender and transmediality.

Activate Your Leadership POWER - The Personal Mentor for Young Leaders: How to Lead Your Team Confidently, Purposefully & Competently to Long-Term Success - Including Workbook & Practical Exercises

“An impressive and valuable contribution to multiple fields of study. Dore analyzes and gets to the core of virtually every major Western philosopher from Aristotle to Arendt. He has created a new, unified theory of social justice. It is rare—even breathtaking—to find a work of such ambition, critical insight and social commitment.” —Peter Wogan, Professor of Anthropology and Global Cultural Studies,&nbsp;Willamette&nbsp;University, USAThis book presents a comprehensive theory of justice with a threefold justification. The first&nbsp;justification is a rigorous empirical methodology based on the stark realities of the human&nbsp;condition. It is adapted from the methodology of cultural materialism, which in turn, is founded&nbsp;on the materialist epistemology of Karl Marx, and has a strong anthropological grounding. The second justification is philosophical. The theory is tested against the thought of Aristotle,&nbsp;Thomas Hobbes, Thomas Aquinas, Immanuel Kant, Georg W. F. Hegel, John Finnis, John&nbsp;Dewey, George Mead, Jürgen Habermas, Michel Foucault, Jean-François Lyotard, Axel Honneth,&nbsp;Michael Sandel, Michael Walzer, Martha Nussbaum, John Maynard Keynes, Amartya Sen and&nbsp;Marx. The third justification is moral. The theory presents a step-by-step guide to first securing the&nbsp;minimum moral content of an ethics of survival and subsistence, followed by a non-contractarian&nbsp;"thick" theory for full human flourishing.Isaak Dore is Distinguished Professor of Law and Philosophy Emeritus, St. Louis University School of Law, USA. Formerly a human rights lawyer in the United Nations, he has over fifty years of experience teaching and writing in the areas of law, philosophy, anthropology and multiculturalism, with eight books and scores of articles in these fields.

Taking Japan as a heuristic example, this book explores the significance of neatly kept and classified records and archives to maintain a democratic society. Japan adopted constitutional monarchy as a state system in the nineteenth century and then amended it to become a democracy in the twentieth century. How the evaluation of public and governmental records has and has not changed for almost a century is an indication of the maturity of democracy in Japan. How and to what extent the records of the government are disclosed to and shared with the public are among the fundamental criteria to assess the quality and maturity of democracy in a society. From this point of view, the book examines the current status of records and archives management in several spheres of Japanese society, with some international comparative studies as well. On the one hand, Japan is a society that has attached great importance to written documents, which is evident when one sees how carefully ordinary people kept diverse kinds of documents even in the pre-modern period. On the other hand, the public at large has long been indifferent to the records and archives that serve as fundamental infrastructure to keep the governance of society transparent and accountable. By examining those contradictory aspects of the attitudes toward records and archives in Japanese society, this book provides the key elements of management of critical information for a democratic society.

Governance, Ignorance, and Archives

"This book is an important analysis of how police themselves define and respond to police corruption and wrongdoing. It offers special insights into this hard to research issue because it is based on using similar techniques of study on samples of police over time and in different jurisdictions, all linked by an autoethnographic account by Professor Westmarland — an internationally celebrated expert on the topic — narrating her engagement with the problems of police corruption and culture. This provides a revealing account of variations over time and between places. Clearly and engagingly written this is essential reading for students, scholars, practitioners and policy makers concerned about policing and its legitimacy."

-Robert Reiner, Emeritus Professor of Criminology, LSE

"This is a lively and fascinating book which places our understanding of policing ethics, integrity and police corruption within a long term timeline. The author traces how a particular research technique within policing studies - the use of 'scenario' based surveys of police officers to test officers' attitudes to the seriousness of a series of possible forms of police misconduct and their willingness to report those forms to others - has been utilised in policing research over a 50 plus year history. It begins with US-based pioneering policing research in the 1970s and takes us through the use of, and lessons learnt by, scenario-based research in later decades in the UK and internationally. This includes, by way of an autoethnography, the author's own critical research over the past 20 years, revisiting some earlier published research on the theme. This book is essential reading for those studying police integrity and corruption and the wider field of police cultures."

- Professor Steve Savage, Emeritus Professor of Criminology, University of Portsmouth.


This book outlines over 20 years of in-depth research on police culture and the blue code of silence which is said to protect and perpetuate police misconduct. It discusses the existing literature and draws upon first-hand research with many serving police officers and some police support staff. These studies not only provide evidence of the police code but are also useful for examining why and how to prevent its ill-effects. A recent (post 1950s) history of police cultural research which concentrates on ethics and integrity is provided with reflections on change and a discussion of the College of Policing’s introduction of a code of ethics in 2014. It asks whether anything has changed but mainly analyses the individual studies and what the potential lessons learnt are from the various scandals that have come to light. The questionnaires and research instruments used are included in the text for replication purposes, and alongside this, the ethics of such studies are discussed. This book will speak to police officers including those enrolled on police degrees, policing scholars and students, and criminologists.

Louise Westmarland is Professor of Criminology at The Open University, UK.

Studien zum sozialen Dasein der Person

Am Beispiel der neueren vornehmlich sozialwissenschaftlichen Forschung im Kontext der politischen Programme der Politik gegen Einsamkeit in Deutschland wird das Problem der letztendlichen Unverfügbarkeit des Subjekts dergestalt problematisiert, dass sich die Vorstellung von sozialpolitischen Interventionen als Strategien der Machbarkeit der Veränderung von Lebensformen von einem sozialliberal bzw. linksliberal engagierten Populismus zu einem Humanismus melancholischer Daseinsfreude verschieben muss. Dabei sollen epistemologisch die Kausalitätsmodelle wie auch die philosophischen Defizite und die ontoanthropologischen Lücken einer hinreichenden phänomenologischen Rekonstruktion des Weltverhältnisses von Subjekt und Welt ebenso problematisiert werden.
