  • Globalization, Post-Materialism and Threefolding
    id43049218 pdfMachine by Broadgun Software - a great PDF writer! - a great PDF creator! - http://www.pdfmachine.com http://www.broadgun.com GLOBALIZATION, POST-MATERIALISM AND THREEFOLDING http://www.cadi.ph/Features/Feature_11_Post_Mat.htm 07/26/2007 GLOBALIZATION, POST-MATERIALISM AND THREEFOLDING[1] By Nicanor Perlas[2] Abstract The September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks in New York and the Battle of Genoa in July 2001 in Italy captures the present power configuration of the world. Three worldviews are struggling for control over the future of the planet. These three worldviews are characterized and labeled, broadly, as Jihad, McWorld, and Civitas. McWorld is the world of the dominant materialistic modernity that governs the world. Jihad is the fundamentalist response of tradition, not just Islam, to McWorld. The world of Civitas is the world of post-materialism seeking a more spiritual approach, different from McWorld and Jihad, to world challenges. An elite form of globalization associated with McWorld has taken over the planet with disastrous consequences. This elite form of globalization is forcing humanity to ask fundamental questions about the nature and meaning of ’s relationship with it. human existence, about societies and civilizations, and about the nature of nature and humanity The questions of McWorld cannot be answered from the consciousness of McWorld nor Jihad. It requires a post-material consciousness, perspective and action to address the problems spawned by elite globalization today. Fortunately, there is a massive awakening throughout the world today in connection with a more spiritual approach and response to the challenge of McWorld. Ronald Inglehart documents the broad contours of this new awakening.

GeoJournal of Tourism and Geosites, 26(3), 993–1005. https://doi.org/10.30892/gtg.26324-412 Abstract: This article investigates the phenomenon of transmodern tourism in Soweto as it statistically tests the theoretical assumption that Cultural Creatives are a clearly identifiable group of transmodern tourist in general tourists population. The results of ANOVA confirmed a group difference between Cultural Creatives and general tourists, leading to a major finding that Cultural Creatives presence in Soweto (54.8%) is two-times (26.1%) more than the value predicted by the literature. In addition, Walking around the township is identified as Cultural Creatives’ most authentic experience which further validates the recommendation for development of an innovative range of immersive and authentic experiences in Soweto that conforms to Cultural Creative’s transmodern value system. Keywords: Transmodernism, Cultural Creatives, Authenticity, Transformative experience, Conscious consumers, Soweto * * * * * * INTRODUCTION The world out there is changing at an unprecedented rate.

My primary interest, for both personal and academic inquiries, is the investigation of various cultural and sub-cultural groups and their experiences. The rituals and performance customs of particular modern and indigenous communities offers an intriguing glimpse into worlds I have yet to travel. I will briefly discuss my previous adventures with international travel, religious and spiritual quests, and my examination of a multitude of artistic and cultural genres like theatre and dance. Both my previous cultural experiences and the performance elements of cross- cultural studies directly influenced my choreography while in the School of Dance at Ohio University.

  • 1 a Philosophical Analysis of STEM Education Dissertation Presented In
    A Philosophical Analysis of STEM Education Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Jamie Eric Teeple Graduate Program in Educational Studies The Ohio State University 2018 Dissertation Committee Bryan R. Warnick, Advisor Michael J. Glassman Bruce A. Kimball 1 Copyrighted by Jamie Eric Teeple 2018 2 Abstract In this dissertation, I critique STEM education as the educational apotheosis of neoliberal governmentality and reconceptualize it for an egalitarian democracy. Part and parcel of this analysis is considering Wendy Brown’s (2015) contention that the contemporary subject is interpolated by the prevailing norms of neoliberalism as a governing form of political rationality and thus expresses itself not as a political subject, or “homo politicus”, but as a self-investing and economized subject, or “homo oeconomicus”. I hypothesize that students as emergent homo oeconomicus seek out STEM education as the best means for survival within a technocratic marketplace. In this sense, STEM literacy is rendered the paradigmatic form of symbolic capital within the capitalist state. The thrust of my critical response to this milieu figures left-libertarian or social-anarchist thought as the diametrically opposed and thus apposite ideological rejoinder to the right- authoritarian status quo, not only for political activism writ large, but also for educational reform proposals and even the preparation of preservice teachers. In the end, my research is an attempt to explore how students’ narratives can assist critical educators with leveraging pedagogy into a potent means for cultivating within educational systems the social imaginaries and political subjects needed to eschew the aims of a right- authoritarian status quo and embrace the aims of an egalitarian, left-libertarian society-to- be.

  • Grace Filled Or Grace Felled? Spirituality in the Workplace, Orientalism at Work, and Values As a Model for Engagement V6.0
    Grace Filled or Grace Felled? Spirituality in the Workplace, Orientalism at Work, and Values as a Model for Engagement V6.0 By Wendy Knowles December 18, 2014 1 All have suffered. All are equally full of nonsense. Therefore, in principle, there must be a new and universal politics—a politics of no praise and no blame. By these means, reconciliation must be achieved—cooperatively, in a disposition of mutual tolerance, trust, and respect. The genetic unity of humankind is inherent. That unity is scientifically known to be so. Yet, the “difference-makers” speak and act as if there were some superior humans and inferior humans, superior nationalisms and inferior nationalisms, and so on—as if merely incidental differences were of immense significance. To make much of incidental differences is merely to argue about old stories. Instead of all that, everyone must be exercised anew—toward (and in, and As) Truth in always present-time. – The World Friend, Adi Da, Not-Two Is Peace 2 Grace Filled or Grace Felled? Spirituality in the Workplace, Orientalism at Work, and Values as a Model for Engagement A spiritual disposition at the individual and global level may be good for the planet. ‘Spirituality in the workplace,’ at first glance, offers an impression of the best of both worlds, a practice that is both individually particular and globally conscious. I assert that, in field application, there are inherent challenges in the execution of spirituality in the workplace. The term ‘spiritual’ is unique to religion in that is does not generally connote the dogma and historical problems associated with religion.

  • Being and Becoming Political in the Classroom
    Andreas Petrik Being and becoming political in the classroom The "foundation of a village-community"-simulation as genetic teaching and research setting The democracy and ideology gap in civic education When reflecting on the future of civic education and its best practices we should keep in mind the most salient similarity between teaching and politics: the gap between programs and practice. This is why we can talk about an important "rejuvenation" of this subject both in the United States and in Germany by the recent empirical turn. Instead of accepting the evidence that many students consider civic education as boring and see no learning effect, we started to examine by surveys and assessments, how civics is being taught and how it might be best taught, including to find explications and solutions for the youthful indifference toward institutional politics (e.g., Niemi & Niemi, 2007, 34- 35). So I will start with real classroom practice to unfold my perspective on the problems and challenges of present teaching and develop theoretical and practical didactical answers. Though my own best practice research refers to German experience, I will link my approach to the recent American didactic discussion to outline common future tasks. As I didn't get a chance yet to do research in American classes, I will inductively develop my didactic starting point using a classroom scene with a 11th or 12th grader published by Nancy and Richard Niemi (2007, 44-45). I have chosen it because the authors see it as typical and we can find here in a nutshell the core of two outstanding teaching and learning problems to be solved both in the U.S.

  • The Political Compass and Why Libertarianism Is Not Right-Wing
    The Political Compass and Why Libertarianism is not Right-Wing J C Lester Abstract The political distinction between left and right remains ideologically muddled. This was not always so, but an immediate return to the pristine usage is impractical. Putting a theory of social liberty to one side, this essay defends the interpretation of left-wing as personal-choice and right-wing as property-choice. This allows an axis that is north/choice (or state-free) and south/control (or state-ruled). This Political Compass clarifies matters without being tendentious or too complicated. It shows that what is called ‘libertarianism’ is north-wing. A quiz gives the reader’s Political Compass reading. Pristine clarity and modern confusion The modern political left/right division is too crude to accommodate many important political positions in a way that makes any sense. Libertarianism (or extreme classical liberalism) is sometimes placed, often implicitly or vaguely, somewhere on the extreme right. But can we say whether it ought to be to the right or left of other „right-wing‟ ideologies? How are we to indicate the extreme tolerance of personal choice (as regards drug use and consenting sexual practices, for instance) that libertarianism entails but which is not normally thought of as being right-wing? Samuel Brittan sees clearly the confusion in the modern left and right (though assuming a libertarian view of liberty): The dilemma of the [classical] liberal is that while Conservatives now use the language of individual freedom, they apply this only—if at all—to domestic economic questions. They are the less libertarian of the two parties—despite individual exceptions—on all matters of personal and social conduct, and are much the more hawk-like in their attitude to „foreign affairs‟.
