Hidup berkeluarga dan bermasyarakat di era digital ini memerlukan fondasi spiritual yang kokoh. Itulah kesadaran yang menggerakkan para penulis artikel dalam buku ini. Nilai-nilai spiritual amat diperlukan sebagai kekuatan yang mendorong perjuangan hidup berkeluarga yang saling mengasihi dan rukun sesuai ajaran iman Kristen. Hidup berkeluarga merupakan bentuk kesaksian iman di tengah masyarakat. Dalam kehidupan bermasyarakat, para pemimpin memerlukan model dan teladan yang menginspirasi kepemimpinan yang adil, penuh kasih, bijak dan takwa kepada Allah. Dalam kehidupan bermasyarakat yang berbhinekatunggal ika, Kristus menjadi teladan dalam bersikap empati, saling peduli dan mengasihi. Sikap tersebut menjadi dasar untuk memecahkan persoalan hidup bersama dalam kasih persaudaraan yang damai. Kristus adalah teladan dan kekuatan untuk memperjuangkan hidup dalam iman yang ditandai oleh suasana kasih persaudaraan, kesetiakawanan dan kerelaan untuk saling membantu. Di dalam situasi dunia yang berubah dengan cepat ini, ketaatan iman Abraham menjadi inspirasi untuk menghayati iman dengan tekun dan setia.

Decision making in land management involves preferential selection among competing alternatives. Often, such choices are difficult owing to the complexity of the decision context. Because the analytic hierarchy process (AHP, developed by Thomas Saaty in the 1970s) has been successfully applied to many complex planning, resource allocation, and priority setting problems in business, energy, health, marketing, natural resources, and transportation, more applications of the AHP in natural resources and environmental sciences are appearing regularly. This realization has prompted the authors to collect some of the important works in this area and present them as a single volume for managers and scholars. Because land management contains a somewhat unique set of features not found in other AHP application areas, such as site-specific decisions, group participation and collaboration, and incomplete scientific knowledge, this text fills a void in the literature on management science and decision analysis for forest resources.
This book presents a systematic literature review of 156 published papers on business model innovation (BMI). The aim is to identify and integrate the different theoretical perspectives, analytical levels, and empirical contexts in order to deepen understanding of this complex phenomenon. The authors conduct an inductive thematic analysis based on an informal ontological classification that identifies 56 key themes. Within each theme, discussion focuses on thematic patterns, potential inconsistencies and debates, and future directions and opportunities for research. The book makes a number of significant contributions to the field. First, it offers a deeper understanding of the evolution of research on BMI through an ontological map that identifies the key thematic areas in the literature. Second, a multilevel model is developed that clarifies the concept of BMI by identifying its drivers, contingencies, and outcomes. Third, the authors identify clear and specific directions for further research and offer suggestions on research design, creating an informative road map for the future. The book will be of value both to scholars and researchers and to practitioners.
Entrepreneurial Ecosystems and the Diffusion of Startups addresses, for the first time, the emerging notion of entrepreneurial ecosystems. Chapters from leading scholars in the fields of entrepreneurship and strategy explore new ideas and provoke debate in both academia and practice. Covering the emergence, dynamics and management of entrepreneurial ecosystems and offering conceptual tools, experimental evidence and practical examples, this book will be invaluable to those seeking a greater understanding of entrepreneurship and startup strategies, both practitioners and students.
This book presents a comprehensive exploration of the emerging concept and framework of telecoupling and how it can help create a better understanding of land-use change in a globalised world. Land-use change is increasingly characterised by a spatial disconnect between its main environmental, socioeconomic and political drivers and the main impacts and outcomes of those changes. The authors examine how this separation of the production and consumption of land-based resources is driven by population growth, urbanisation, climate change, and biodiversity and carbon conservation efforts. Identifying and fostering more sustainable, just and equitable modes of land use and intervening in unsusta...
Offering a cutting-edge, transdisciplinary approach to bio-physical and bio-cultural scales of sustainability, this Companion explores diverse understandings of the what, how, why and where questions of sustainability. It examines the key notion of how to optimize human quality of life whilst minimizing environmental suffering. Integrating a range of disciplines through the social sciences, natural sciences and arts and humanities, this Companion focuses on the human component of sustainability, using a place-based and life-scape approach to environmental questions. Chapters analyze critical topics including: urbanization and city life, environmental conservation and rural landscapes, long-t...
Normative analysis in economics usually aims at satisfying individuals' preferences, valuing economic freedom and viewing markets favourably. Behavioural research, however, shows that individuals' preferences are often unstable. Robert Sugden proposes a reformulation of normative economics compatible with psychology of choice.

Based on a seventeen year study of the Australian energy industry, and via the lens of Niklas Luhmann’s systems theory, Meta-Regulation in Practice argues that normative meta-regulatory theory relies on unrealistic assumptions of stakeholder morality and rationality. Meta-regulation in practice appears to be most challenged in a complex and contested environment; the very environment it is supposed to serve best.
