This is evidenced by the expected impacts on the labor market. • In the Fourth Industrial Revolution, it is necessary that the Czech Republic avoids the developmental delays it has experienced in all previous stages of industrial revolutions. The reason is the effort to approach economically more advanced western economies not only within abstract macroeconomic indicators but also in the realistic living stan- dard of citizens. • Trade unions are, and must continue to be, a key player in the implementation of Society 4.0, i.e. in the implementation of public policies aimed at strengthening or mitigating the effects of the Fourth Industrial Revolution on society. • The trade union movement itself has to respond to changes in the labor market. Consideration should be given to the new potential content of collective negotiation, which is likely to affect also workers’ digital rights, such as personal data protection and control. • A critical moment is to extend collective negotiation to other groups of workers who are presently forced into non-standard forms of employment, such as self-employ- ment in digital platforms. CMKOS, in cooperation with the European Trade Union Confederation, will act and find solutions in the context of the whole EU. • Occupational safety must cover new and increasingly unhealthy working environ- ments, such as the prevention of burnout syndrome, constant online disposition of an employee, etc. • Given that one has to respond quickly to the changes in the Fourth Industrial Revolution and is more likely to have more professional careers than just one, the public adminis- tration shall provide every single citizen with a sufficient network of affordable educa- tion services and give higher priority to lifelong learning. • Similarly, public services shall also ensure other aspects of the transition to the digital economy and focus on frictional (voluntary) and structural (involuntary) unemploy- ment, which can theoretically occur. A sufficient “social pillow”, which is currently underfinanced, will be crucial for trade unions. 5 INTRODUCTION The following information is written by CMKOS primarily with the assumption that the current form and content of social dialogue may soon prove to be outstripped, mainly owing to dynamic and complex transformations triggered by the forthcoming Fourth Industrial Revolution, both on the part of employees and employers. The time to look also in a social dialogue for the corresponding response of both partners heading towards its overall higher efficiency is approaching. The task for creating this document is extremely difficult for each of the tripartite participants, who should inevitably fulfill its task, i.e. defending the legitimate interests of those who have actually nominated them into the tripartite for this very purpose. Yet, the only thing that already seems to be virtually certain is the realization that the ongo- ing changes concern not only the economic system itself (and thus both social partners anchored in opposing positions given by the clash of labor and capital), but practically all systems linked and related to an economy on scales that are more and more transnational. Therefore, in connection with the grasp of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, it makes sense not only to talk closely about the Industry agenda 4.0 or Construction agenda 4.0 (and thus to understand the phenomenon of “4.0” typically only in terms of departments, sectors or unions), but, at the same time, urgently talk also about the Work agenda 4.0, Education agenda 4.0, Healthcare agenda 4.0 or Mobility agenda 4.0, and in the next step, certainly about Institutions 4.0 and, more broadly, about Society 4.0.

  • What Should We Teach Children About Forgiveness?
    What should we teach children about forgiveness? Alonso: But, O, how oddly will it sound, that I Must ask my child forgiveness? Prospero: There sir stop, Let us not burthen our remembrances, with A heaviness that’s gone. (Shakespeare, Tempest, V,I) In 1998 the president of the Bible Society called on the nation to forgive David Beckham for getting himself sent off in England’s World Cup match against Argentina, after it was reported that in a TV poll 40% of fans said they could not forgive his foul (The Guardian, 13 July, 1998).1 In 1999 President Clinton asked God, his wife and the American people for forgiveness for lying about his relationship with Monica Lewinsky. The Pope, perhaps helpfully for Beckham and Clinton, declared 2000 to be a special Holy Year, a year of forgiveness, freeing sinners from time in purgatory (The Guardian, 28 November 1998). We seem to live in a culture of forgiveness in which there is pressure on wrongdoers to seek forgiveness and on others to forgive them. How far should this be reflected in the way we educate children? Should teachers and parents teach children to forgive one another? The Primary and Secondary Handbooks on the National Curriculum both include under the entry about the promotion of moral development across the curriculum the statement that children should ‘learn how to forgive themselves and others’ (Handbook for Primary Teachers, DfEE/QCA, 1999: 19; Handbook for Secondary Teachers, DfEE/QCA, 1999: 21). But what is involved in encouraging forgiveness? Is it an unambiguous notion? Is there even a danger that it could involve fostering in children some ethically questionable attitudes? 1 Forgiveness is one response to having been wronged.

While Wolf’s attitude towards religion was ambiguous, his settings of the “Geistliche Lieder” from both collections are remarkable examples of originality, artistry, and personal expression. The study traces Wolf’s motivation for working with religious-themed verses from two divergent poetic sources in the context of biographical circumstances and examines Wolf’s distinctive musical articulation in selected sacred songs from two representative works: the Mörike volume which initiated the mature period of the composer’s career and artistry, and the Spanisches Liederbuch, which represents his originality in full bloom.

À ma connaissance, celles inscrites dans cet ouvrage correspondent à ce qui a été enregistré à l’époque. Peter Hook La traductrice remercie Gisèle Clark pour sa relecture des rubriques « L’instant geek ». introduction ■ Quand j’ai commencé mon livre sur l’Haçienda, je savais déjà que, si j’en venais à raconter l’histoire de New Order, ce serait la plus difficile de toutes. En vingt-six ans de carrière, on a connu de très beaux moments, mais aussi beaucoup de souffrance et de chagrin, de doutes, de frustration et d’agacement. C’est un miracle qu’on ait tous réussi à s’en sortir. Si Joy Division a défini ma vie, New Order l’a façonnée. C’est un captivant récit de sexe, de drogue et de rock’n’roll (indé) ; d’art, d’argent et de bêtise crasse, de foi aveugle et de chance incroyable, tout ça sur fond de chansons géniales composées par de super musiciens.

Doesn’t really seem like an easy to be, does it? It isn’t all rainbows and butterfl ies as we imagined when we were younger. As we get older we become more honest with ourselves, with who we are, and what we believe. You must stand up for your- self, love yourself and what you create yourself to be. You’ll have peo- ple by your side in this life; in the halls of high school but, I believe the most important one, the one that will always be there is the one looking at you in the mirror. Look at yourself sometime, ask yourself if you’re ok. Find things to love about yourself, everyday. We are all diff erent and that’s what’s beautiful about this world and society. We must understand that we are all diff erent. Next time you’re in the halls, hold your head up high and for goodness sakes, love who you’re becoming.
