An Invitation to Non-Hegemonic World Sociology
Although sociology is present as a discipline or as a social practice in most countries in the world, its future as a not-only Western social science has hardly been addressed before. In this book, a team of interdisciplinary scholars have been working together not so much to offer one single response to the question than to raise important issues at stake for the future of sociology. Is it universal? Can it be indigenous? How is it possible – and is it even desirable – to write its history differently so as to know better about its early world diffusion and gradual Westernization? Do we need to expand or change its canon? This collection brings together essays that are all engaged in in...
Reputation Management
Reputation is the most complex asset of an organization. Despite the call for consistent management of corporate reputation comprehensive approaches to measure and steer a company' s reputation are still in their infancy. Reputation management aims at creating a balance between stakeholder demands, perceptions and corporate reality in order to foster behavior that helps a company achieve its business goals. It needs to be based on thorough research and requires orchestrated execution through management processes across organizational units, communication disciplines, and countries. This calls for a management system to establish a closed cycle of strategic planning, implementation, performance measurement, and reporting. The book gives answers to the following questions: What is reputation and which conceptualizations do exist? What are the state-of-the-art methods and tools to measure corporate reputation? What are best practice examples and future trends in the field of corporate reputation management?
Theories about and Strategies against Hegemonic Social Sciences
This innovative book provides new perspectives on the globalization of knowledge and the notion of hegemonic sciences. Tying together contributions of authors from all across the world, it challenges existing theories of hegemonic sciences and sheds new light on how they have been and are being constructed. Examining more closely the notions of 'human rights' and 'individualization', this much-needed volume offers new and alternative ideas on how to transform the universalization of the Western model of science and can serve as an eye-opener for all those interested in non-hegemonic scientific discourse. This book is published within the Series 'Beyond the Social Sciences'.
The Structure of Scientific Revolutions
Thomas Kuhn’s The Structure of Scientific Revolutions can be seen, without exaggeration, as a landmark text in intellectual history. In his analysis of shifts in scientific thinking, Kuhn questioned the prevailing view that science was an unbroken progression towards the truth. Progress was actually made, he argued, via "paradigm shifts", meaning that evidence that existing scientific models are flawed slowly accumulates – in the face, at first, of opposition and doubt – until it finally results in a crisis that forces the development of a new model. This development, in turn, produces a period of rapid change – "extraordinary science," Kuhn terms it – before an eventual return to ...
The Red Sword of Allah
September 11, 2001 was a wake-up call for the United States. Now, years later, people are getting sick and dying from what seems like any and all processed foods with each victim having differing symptoms. The food supply has been poisoned by an underground army of terrorists who have been working in the country's food industry. The Director of Homeland Security has called in Dr. Bradford Wilson to help head the effort to battle the unknown attackers. Any food that has been processed or handled in the nation's food industry is now becoming a symbolic last meal and Brad must find out the who, what, how and why of the deadly attack. As Brad leads the investigation, the fight becomes personal and draws him into an anger and hatred where he finds that anyone can become a killer. In time, the country finds the answers and begins to turn the tide, only to discover that this attack was but a precursor to the death stroke of the Red Sword of Allah that is now coming straight at them. They are now faced with saving the entire human race. The foretold Islamic Apocalypse is now a reality.
