New Studies in Christian Ethics

Duckett Stephen: Healthcare Funding and
Christian Ethics

Healthcare Funding and Christian Ethics

In this book, Adrian Thatcher offers fresh theological arguments for expanding our understanding of gender. He begins by describing the various meanings of gender and depicts the relations between women and men as a pervasive human and global problem. Thatcher then critiques naive and harmful theological accounts of sexuality and gender as binary opposites or mistaken identities. Demonstrating that the gendered theologies of Hans Urs von Balthasar and Karl Barth, as well as the Vatican's "war on gender" rest on questionable binary models, he replaces these models with a human continuum that allows for sexual difference without assuming "opposite sexes" and normative sexualities.&nbsp; Grounded in core Christian doctrines, this continuum enables a full theological affirmation of LGBTIQ people. Thatcher also addresses the excesses of the male/female binary in secular culture and outlines a hermeneutic that delivers justice and acceptance instead of sexism and discrimination.&nbsp;

Gender and Christian Ethics

Ein Buch, das die entscheidenden Fragen stellt und sich heute wieder so aktuell liest wie zum erstmaligen Erscheinen.
 »Ein Unbehagen, eine
 tiefe Verunsicherung
 , eine stille, unterschwellige 
 Wut
 «, das sei das 
 gemeinsame Erbe der letzten Kinder der DDR,
 so Sabine Rennefanz. Als die Mauer fiel, war sie 15 Jahre alt und gehörte damit zur gleichen Generation wie die Mörder des NSU. 2011, unter dem Eindruck der Bekennervideos von Böhnhardt, Mundlos und Zschäpe und angestoßen von den 
 Vorurteilen in der Ost-West-Debatte
 , begibt Rennefanz sich auf eine nachdenkliche Suche nach Spuren, Mustern und Zusammenhängen, nach Heimat und nach der Identität ihrer Generation – den Eisenkindern.&nbsp;

Foreword
In times of peace, nations often grow complacent. In times of crisis, they scramble to react. But the United States now finds itself in a far more dangerous place-caught in a storm where both complacency and crisis coexist. The threats are no longer on the horizon; they are here, intertwined, and multiplying. From shifting global alliances that challenge our economic dominance, to persistent terror threats that test our resolve, to bitter political divisions that erode our unity from within-America stands in a precarious moment. America on the Brink: Military Readiness, Economic Rivalry, and Political Fragmentation is not simply a book about policy, nor is it a detached academic treatise. It is a strategic call to arms for both leaders and citizens. F.L. Hinton Jr., an entrepreneur and author with a track record of confronting the hard truths, lays bare the interconnected vulnerabilities of our military readiness, economic stability, and political cohesion. His analysis is sharp, unflinching, and grounded in both lived experience and rigorous research. Hinton understands that the United States does not have the luxury of treating its challenges in isolation. Weakening defense capabilities affects economic confidence; market instability fuels political extremism; partisan division undermines our ability to respond to external threats. These forces do not act independently- they reinforce one another in a dangerous feedback loop. But this is also a book about solutions. F.L. Hinton Jr. offers a blueprint for how America can rebuild strength-through revitalizing military recruitment, forging smarter economic partnerships, renewing civic responsibility, and rekindling the sense of shared purpose that once defined us. He calls for an era where public and private sectors work hand in hand, where citizens demand more from their leaders and more from themselves, and where strategic foresight replaces reactive politics. The value of America on the Brink lies not only in its urgency but in its clarity. Hinton makes it impossible to ignore the stakes, yet equally impossible to believe that decline is inevitable. This book is a wake-up call, but also a guidepost-pointing toward a future where America can regain its footing and stand once again as a united, secure, and confident nation. The clock is ticking. The threats are real. But so is our capacity to overcome them-if we act now.

Military Readiness, Economic Rivalry, and Political Fragmentation

America on the Brink

This book looks at the inter-relationship between the system background of the Chinese family enterprises, information disclosure with the reality of the securities market. The book examines the relationship between family enterprise governance and the information transmission mechanism through theoretical and empirical studies and provides comprehensive results of the investigation on family enterprises. In particular, it constructs a three-dimensional analytical framework constituted by governance of listed family enterprises, information disclosure and enterprise value from the perspective of family enterprise governance (i.e. the ownership structure and features of the board of directors) The book is useful to investors with information on listed family enterprises. The content helps investors to correctly realize the value of such enterprises and reduces the problem of "adverse selection", saving cost on decision-making. The book is also beneficial to securities regulatory authorities to assess the quality of information disclosed by listed companies.

In the age of AI, leadership does not follow technology. It shapes its trajectory.

Artificial intelligence holds extraordinary potential. Yet without thoughtful stewardship,
that promise risks being wasted or misused in ways that erode trust, destabilise systems, and
harm people. The question is not whether AI will transform our world, but how leaders
choose to shape that transformation.

How do we harness AI in ways that are powerful yet people-centred? How do we move at
pace without sacrificing trust, cultural readiness, or Inclusive AI by Design?

Grounded in enterprise experience and lived insight, Jamal D. Sakara Hamidu offers a
practical guide for leaders determined to act with urgency, not haste; to lead with inclusion
by intention, not exception; and to embed ethics, culture, and sustainable value at the core
of AI transformation. Drawing on deeply transformational work with global organisations,
from EY to Deutsche Bank, and on his experience building Barika Intelligence, he presents
a compelling alternative to hype-fuelled manifestos and fear-driven narratives.

At the heart of this book is The RAPP Way®, a future-ready methodology designed to help
organisations confront the real challenges of AI adoption: ethical complexity, evolving regulation,
cultural resistance, workforce readiness, the emotional cost of change that accompanies
transformation, and the short-term pressures that too often derail long-term success.

Realistic Optimism offers a bold and balanced path forward for executives and policymakers
seeking to lead with purpose, foresight, and integrity in the competitive age of AI.

The Greatest Threat in AI Isn't the Technology-It's How We Choose to Adopt It!

Realistic Optimism

Elon Musk ist der mächtigste Mann der Welt. Tesla machte ihn zum dreihundertfachen Milliardär, mit seinem Satellitennetzwerk Starlink beeinflusst er das Kriegsgeschehen in der Ukraine. Sein Social-Media-Netzwerk X nutzt Musk als Bühne für seine persönliche Propaganda. Im Herbst 2024 kaufte er sich auch noch in die US-Regierung ein. 
Musk inszeniert sich als Retter der Zivilisation, doch sein Geniegestus birgt eine erschreckende Kehrseite: Ungewöhnlich viele Arbeitsunfälle in seinen Fabriken, gefährliche Fehler des Tesla-Autopiloten und zahllose gebrochene Versprechen werfen einen dunklen Schatten auf seinen Erfolg. 
Die Investigativjournalisten Sönke Iwersen und Michael Verfürden reißen in diesem Buch Musks Fassade ein. Sie analysieren interne Tesla-Daten, werten Gerichtsakten aus und sprechen mit Kunden, Mitarbeitern und Hinterbliebenen. Ihre Recherchen zeigen einen Konzern außer Kontrolle und einen Chef ohne Skrupel. Sie sind ein Vorgeschmack darauf, was die Welt von Musk als erstem globalen Oligarchen zu erwarten hat. 
'Ich habe kein Problem damit, gehasst zu werden', sagt Elon Musk. Seine Biografie gleicht einer Kaskade von Kämpfen - mit seinen Mitarbeitern, seinen Geschäftspartnern und in seinen privaten Beziehungen. Nun ist er der Schattenpräsident der USA und greift über sein Netzwerk X weltweit in die Politik ein. Musk geriert sich als Schutzpatron für rechte und rechtsextreme Politiker. Die preisgekrönten Investigativjournalisten Sönke Iwersen und Michael Verfürden zeichnen das Porträt eines libertären Techno-Autokraten, der keine Grenzen akzeptiert. Sein Motto: Die Welt gehört ihm, alle anderen leben nur darin.&nbsp;Aktualisierte und leicht überarbeitete Neuauflage nach den sich überschlagenden Ereignissen in der US-Regierung und rund um das Tesla-Werk in der brandenburgischen Gemeinde Grünheide.

"Beyond the Paycheck" is a leadership book focused on empowering leaders to create business environments that foster personal and professional growth. Written by Veronica Williams, this book blends her academic background in psychology and public administration with years of leadership experience to offer a powerful guide on building purpose-driven work cultures.

At its core, the book explores how people-centered leadership can transform workplace culture. Williams emphasizes the importance of leadership communication in driving positive change, offering actionable insights on how leaders can shift from traditional, control-focused leadership models to ones that promote trust, empowerment, and autonomy.

The book is particularly focused on helping organizations create a human-centered workplace, where employees are not just viewed as workers but as individuals with potential, dreams, and aspirations. Through practical tools and case studies, Williams demonstrates how leaders can foster employee engagement, create thriving teams, and nurture a culture of meaningful work by aligning professional growth with the organization's goals.

Drawing on the principles of leadership psychology, the book outlines the importance of emotional intelligence leadership. Leaders are encouraged to lead with empathy and to foster relationships that empower employees to take ownership of their work. Through this, leaders can not only meet the basic needs of their employees but also elevate them to higher levels of fulfillment and self-actualization, creating a purpose-driven work environment.

With an emphasis on team empowerment strategies, Williams highlights how leaders can shift from micromanagement to coaching, creating space for autonomy and growth. The book aims to inspire leaders to embrace a modern leadership approach, where the human side of leadership is central to organizational success.

In addition to employee engagement, thriving teams, and purpose-driven work, the book offers deep insights into the importance of meaningful work culture and the role of leaders in cultivating such an environment. It calls on leaders to embrace the holistic development of their teams, which ultimately leads to long-term organizational success.

Whether you're a seasoned leader or an aspiring one, "Beyond the Paycheck" offers a practical guide to transforming your leadership approach and your workplace. With a focus on people first leadership and human-centered workplace strategies, this book is an essential read for anyone committed to creating a thriving, engaged, and empowered workforce.

Beyond the Paycheck

The 'fresh start' that is afforded individual debtors through the discharge doctrines of American bankruptcy law has, to date, defied justification by a single normative principle or theoretical paradigm. The justificatory accounts that have been advanced either fail to explain core doctrines that have long defined the right of discharge or invite theoretical challenges that suggest that their descriptive virtues are swamped by their normative or conceptual shortcomings. This book presents a taxonomy of traditional justifications of bankruptcy and subjects them to critical evaluation. It then seeks to offer a new justification of bankruptcy's 'fresh start' doctrines-one that takes its inspiration from a quite different moral tradition than those that have informed past efforts to justify and explain our enduring societal willingness to release people from onerous financial obligations. The book argues that personal debt relief is fully vindicated not by a utilitarian theory, nor by a distributive justice theory, nor by a retributive theory, nor by any other rights- or duties-based theory that is preoccupied with moral claims that particular creditors or debtors might proffer. Rather, the long-standing institution of discharge in bankruptcy is best explained by an aretaic, or virtue-based, theory that concerns itself with the obligations that the rest of us have to be charitable towards those who are unable to repay their debts. The fresh start that bankruptcy gives to those who have been shackled by overwhelming debt is justified not by its effects on creditors, debtors, or future market actors, but by its satisfaction of the demands of individual charity to which all citizens are subject. Bankruptcy's discharge of the debts of those who have become financially desperate is best thought to be an institution that aggregates others' demands of good character so as to permit citizens for whom debt-forgiveness is a personal virtue to live in a society that fulfils that virtue.

Why should debtors who default on their obligations be forgiven? Focusing on this central question at the heart of bankruptcy, this book challenges the theoretical foundations of insolvency law, exploring the economic and moral rationales for the law's decision to wipe the slate clean.
