Criminal justice for human rights abuses committed during periods of political repression or dictatorship is one of the great challenges to post-con?ict societies. In many cases, there has been no justice at all. Sometimes serious political concerns that e?orts at accountability might upset fragile peace settlements have militated in favour of no action and no accountability. In many cases, the outgoing tyrants have conditioned their departure upon a pledge that there be no prosecutions. But thinking on these issues has evolved considerably in recent years. Largely driven by the view that collective amnesia amounts to a violation of fundamental human rights, especially those of the victims of atrocities, attention has increasingly turned to the dynamics of post-con?ict accountability. At the high end of the range, of course, sit the new international criminal justice institutions: the ad hoc tribunals for the former Yugoslavia and Rwanda, the Special Court for Sierra Leone, the various ‘‘hybrid’’ tribunals in Kosovo, East Timor and Cambodia, and the new International Criminal Court. But in terms of sheer numbers, the most signi?cant new institutions are truth and reconciliation commissions. Of va- able architecture, depending upon the prerogatives of the society in question and the features of the past con?ict, they have emerged as a highly popular mechanism within the toolbox of transitional justice. In some cases, the truth commission is held out as an alternative to criminal justice.
This volume critically evaluates more than a century of empirical research on the effectiveness of small, task-performing groups, and offers a fresh look at the costs and benefits of collaborative work arrangements. The central question taken up by this book is whether -- and under what conditions -- interaction among group members leads to better performance than would otherwise be achieved simply by combining the separate efforts of an equal number of people who work independently. This question is considered with respect to a range of tasks (idea-generation, problem solving, judgment, and decision-making) and from several different process perspectives (learning and memory, motivation, and member diversity). As a framework for assessing the empirical literature, the book introduces the concept of 'synergy.' Synergy refers to an objective gain in performance that is attributable to group interaction. Further, it distinguishes between weak and strong synergy, which are performance gains of different magnitude. The book highlights the currently available empirical evidence for both weak and strong synergy, identifies the conditions that seem necessary to produce each, and suggests where the search for synergy might best be directed in the future. The book is at once a high-level introduction to the field, a review of the field's history, and a scholarly critique of the current state-of-the-art. As such, it is essential reading for graduate students, advanced undergraduate students, and researchers interested in group dynamics generally -- and small group performance in particular.
From the vantage point of eighty years, a highly regarded scientist and theologian surveys the full spectrum of critical issues between science and theologyJohn Polkinghorne, an international figure known both for his contributions to the field of theoretical elementary particle physics and for his work as a theologian, has over the years filled a bookshelf with writings devoted to specific topics in science and religion. In this new book, he undertakes for the first time a survey of all the major issues at the intersection of science and religion, concentrating on what he considers the essential insights for each. Clearly and without assuming prior knowledge, he addresses causality, cosmology, evolution, consciousness, natural theology, divine providence, revelation, and scripture. Each chapter also provides references to his other books in which more detailed treatments of specific issues can be found.For those who are new to what Polkinghorne calls "one of the most significant interdisciplinary interactions of our time," this volume serves as an excellent introduction. For readers already familiar with John Polkinghorne's books, this latest is a welcome reminder of the breadth of his thought and the subtlety of his approach in the quest for truthful understanding.
The tensions between Calvinism and Arminianism have perpetuated Christian thought for some 500 years. The concerns from both parties are legitimate. Calvinists are often accused of fatalism along with holding to a troubling view of double-predestination. Arminians are often accused of holding to a human-centered view of salvation that robs God of glory while championing human ability. Could it be that many of the tensions between Calvinists and Arminians are sourced in an often-overlooked issue—monergism and synergism? Could the same be said regarding Protestantism and Roman Catholicism concerning justification? In this volume, Daniel Kirkpatrick explores the specific roles of God and humans in various aspects of salvation to determine whether salvation is a work between God and a person (synergism) or a work of God alone (monergism). Building upon the framework of Aquinas, the Reformers, and Arminians, this book examines the issue of who does the work of salvation in light of cause and effect with hopes of providing new insights on historic doctrines.
...Causes and Spaces and Temporalities and Viral Pathologies, extremely difficult for man, for the human being, for humanity in general, for Sapiento-Humanity in all its feelings and expressions, all pathologized by pandemics, by ruins in industries and economies, of immense political and social and military and moral chaos, of climatic and natural social and cultural convulsions, of ethical collapses into injustices and hyper-injustices, of financial collapses, of overwhelms of irrationality and over-irrationality, of avalanches of unnaturalness and tsunamis of immorality, which day by day, täglich und stündlich accentuates the sinking and collapsing negations in Kali Yuga of the multiplied and multimedia evils that have flooded the blue planet lately... ...In this historical hour of disasters accumulated and cumulated and amplified and accelerated for decades and decades, especially after the Second World War, World War Two, WWII (20th Century, Period 1945-2021), in these critical moments of planetary destiny, ErdeSternStunde, in these moments of great questioning of the species Sapiens, Erhebliche Fragezeichen der Menschheit, I try, by my own powers, obviously modest, Selbstverständlich-bescheidendekräfte, to revalue, Umwertung aller Werte, through the triad INFORMATION - INSPIRATION - INTUITION (symbolized in the 3IN triad), with the hope of a retreat or revitalization, even partial, to the overwhelming and threatening realities of the present, from this beginning of the Third Decade of the First Millennium, 2021, the Third Decade, of the First Century of the Third Millennium, 2021… Our Mediology, our Multimedia and MultiMediology, is in its essence a philosophy of the triad INFORMATION - INSPIRATION - INTUITION, so a triad of 3IN, through which any information in the sphere of Human Sapient, becomes both creative and developing inspiration, and distributing intuition, realizing the REVELATION OF SAPIENS, therefore, always relating and correlating to the Great Reality of Species or the Great Reality of Sapiens, revealing it, and self-revealing it, therefore all 3IN being correlated to the Big Reality of Species Sapiens, by revitalizing it, by setting its ontological quantum within the big forces of the Universe oneself, through a triad of SELFNESS, as self-organization, as self-regulation, as self-replication... The philosophy of our Mediology (or MultiMediology), which becomes a kind of galleon book of the catastrophic present in Human Sapient, so MultiMediology of Human Sapient will do everything in correlating Cosmology – Biology and Ontology within the sameness of Species, by revealing it by self – revealing it, as a revelation of biology and intelligibility, of matter and light, of spirit and sensations, Geist und Sinnlichkeit... Please, don’t be scared, I’m not a pessimist or an extra-pessimist, I’m not a desastrionist, or a disastrologist, or a sinistrologist or a catastrophologist, or an apocalyptologist or an armageddonologist, because I’m a realist, a moderate optimist, and I think, just a deep rationalist, but what is happening in the world, in man, in human, in Human Sapient, in these first decades of Millennium Three, MNIII, exceed all the limits of normal, rational and balances of morality, all the limitations of common sense and good human conduct or Human Sapient conduct and behavior... ...We are as an individual and a community, clearly entering the world of evil and darkness, the world of dramatic surrealism, reflected by the Hindu theological concept KALI-YUGA, the world of generalized, viral and moral diseases (Covid is the pandemic of immoral human, a pathology of human in all directions, and, the possible sign of a divine revelation), in the world of bacterial and pathogenic diseases etiological, globalized and generalized of Covido-Human, which is the symmetry of ontogenic and psychogenic diseases, from this human reflected in its maximum Human Sapient, naming here man as the over-exploiter and over-exhauster of all planetary sources and resources, namely them fuel, water, air, soil, subsoil, atmosphere, lithosphere and ionosphere, natural fuel fire extinguisher, natural resources, by reaching to the limit of his own self-extinction, of self-flagellating in vulnerabilities, fragility and co-morbidities, all in endlessly collapsing, at loggerheads of Human with oneself... Human Sapient is hitting by its own himself / herself, Human Sapient is self-suffocating and self-disorganizing, developing a severe pathologizing correspondent of the Entropic Being, EntropicsBeing / EntropischeDasein, becoming now, by far, its own first enemy, Homo homini lupus est... The Human, the Sapient-into-Human, is devouring himself/ herself, as in the tragedies of the ancient worlds, exemplified through Ouroburos Sapientic that bites itself in times and spaces, that develops and expands, both in digitization and virtualization, and in its own DeSapientization... ...We have clearly entered into the battles of the Species, the battles of Sapiens, the Moiria / Fatum destiny of Sapiens, in which the human, the Sapiento-homospheres are fighting, are conflicting with the geological lithospheres, with the biological hydrosphere, with the accompanying and orbiting atmospheres and cosmospheres, but with all, in extreme sharpening against themselves. The human being fights primarily with the Sapiento-Human homosphere, so a struggle of the Sapiens within oneself, which also has heights (few, very few), but especially falls, falls and falls, a cascade of viral wars, of military wars, of migratory wars - pathologies all associated with hurricanes of water and fire and terrorism, with earthquakes and volcanoes, with tornadoes and flashes of anger and cosmological, geological, climatological and biological rages, with human catastrophe, by having in this catastrophic center, the Human Sapient, as trigger, as accelerator and amplifier of biological and ontological self-extinction and, threatening the entire biotope and biorhythm of the planet, but essentially threatening itself, becoming the pathological center Corona of the mutant through Delta-variants and the Omicron super-mutant, numbered by the fateful number 8.1.1.529... Oh! You know! It seems that you have appeared on the stage of the planetary world through yourself, synergizing creation and evolution alike, in these CREVO huge complexities, and possibly disappearing from the stage of the cosmo-planetary world, also through yourself, through your self-extinct dramatic destiny!... God! How you came, that’s how you go!... Right of Sapiens
Synergism For Lasting Success is the true life story of “Don Truly”, the Synergist, whose life was influenced by visitations and consultations of two modern day prophets. These prophecies changed his perspective on life, and led him to make a determined effort to accomplish the world changing goals revealed to him as his future. Although devoid of funds, and having lost all the credibility and trust of his friends and family, Don sought to develop the expertise and make new connections necessary to achieve his near impossible and world changing dreams. His perseverance and visions lead him to discover a single word formula for lasting success, SYNERGISM. In the process he discovers the factors necessary to achieve synergism, and gains a deeper understanding of religions and his role as an instigator of world enhancing ventures. The relationships developed with similarly ambitious associates are described in the book, which provides amazingly new insight and guidelines for success.
What is the value of conversation measured by? Are there more valuable and inferior types of conversation? What role do the contents, the people, and the circumstances play? Do times and epochs shape their own conversations? Conversation norms from handbooks as well as conversations reproduced in texts or reconstructed from texts shed light on these questions. The contributions in this volume are grouped around conceptual questions, specific contexts such as the salon and the table conversation, bring studies on individual literary texts and cover the European cultural history from Plato to the 20th century.
