This book gives insights on the fact that work in itself is sacred and wholly-addressing a wide range of economic, social, political, cultural and theological imbalances. It was ordained by God from the beginning, before the fall of man. After the Fall, it just got tougher, frustrating, exhausting, sometimes even boring. But work pursued with excellence and integrity is still pleasing to God, a way of honouring Him by serving in the unique ways He has equipped us. Our work often provides the opportunities to proclaim Him to a broken, unredeemed world-----through our examples, as well as by our words. A lot of workers do not see a connection between what they do and what they believe God wants it done in the world, within their circle of influences. We found out that many workers feel unfulfilled and frustrated in their work -including Christians, largely because they probably lack a proper understanding of why they work and its meaning to them. This book gives an overview of the attitude of people regarding work. The big idea is that our attitude towards work might change for good and thereby make considerable impact in our world. Our attitude towards work is characterise by the way people view work While human dignity is not supposed to be regional or racial in discussion, I quite agree with Dr Tanimu on the emphasis in the lives of the very poor people of Africa...Tanimu has laboured extensively to show how through God's perspective, systems in society can be discovered, developed and deployed to enhance the dignity of human life in Africa.----Bishop Michael O.

Thomas Köster formuliert einen Inklusionsbegriff nach den Ideen des Wirtschaftsnobelpreisträgers Edmund S. Phelps und wendet diesen auf die Situation der Langzeitarbeitslosen in Deutschland konkret an. Er nähert sich diesem sensiblen Thema mit wissenschaftlicher Sorgfalt und erarbeitet gleichwohl Reformpolitiken von hoher politischer Relevanz. Das Buch leistet einen Beitrag, ökonomische und soziologische Denkschulen klug zu verbinden. Grundsätzliche Erwägungen wie auch statistische Analysen zum Thema (Langzeit-)Arbeitslosigkeit werden über die Darstellung und Einordnung von Einzelschicksalen erlebbar. Dafür wurden in unterschiedlichen Strukturregionen Deutschlands, Interviews aufgenommen, interpretiert und eingeordnet. Es geht nicht nur, sondern auch um die Frage: sind Sie glücklich?" Ziel ist es, das individuelle Inklusionsempfinden in seiner gesamtgesellschaftlichen - und damit untrennbar verbunden: ökonomischen - Bedeutung ganzheitlich zu erfassen. Diese ganzheitliche Sicht bildet damit auch den Brückenschlag zu einem ordnungsökonomischen Mindset. Denn wie verhalten sich in einer modernen Marktgesellschaft wirtschaftliche Dynamik und Inklusion zueinander? Kurzum: Es ist ein Ansatz, der zwangsläufig Herausforderungen für marktwirtschaftliche Reformpolitiken birgt.

Die sog. Realteilung ist ein praxisrelevantes Problemfeld im Bereich der Ertragsbesteuerung. Im Zentrum steht dabei die mitunternehmerische Personengesellschaft, die in den letzten Jahrzehnten mehrfach gesetzliche Änderungen erfahren hat. Die aktuelle Rechtsgrundlage bildet § 16 Abs. 3 Satz 2 EStG. Die vorliegende Arbeit hat sich zum Ziel gesetzt, auf dem nunmehr durch den BFH gefestigten dogmatischen Fundament die weiterhin offenen Fragen herauszuarbeiten und deren Lösungen zu diskutieren.

Reducing the prevalence of all forms of human trafficking, including sex trafficking, labor trafficking, and child sexual exploitation, is a national priority that puts the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) in a prominent role. Given the scale, evolving nature, and complexity of labor trafficking, combating the problem poses a significant challenge. The DHS Science and Technology Directorate (S&T) anti-human trafficking program is assessing the current state of and future needs for labor trafficking research in the United States. This effort will serve as a starting point for future social science-based S&T anti-human trafficking research and actions focused on labor trafficking. As part of this effort, DHS asked the Homeland Security Operational Analysis Center (HSOAC) to identify a scientifically sound research agenda that would leverage existing U.S. and international efforts to address the growing phenomenon of labor trafficking. HSOAC experts developed a research agenda through an extensive review of the literature and meetings with experts from academia and nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) and with stakeholders from DHS and other parts of the U.S. government (expert interviews). The research agenda identified the barriers that would need to be addressed and the questions that would need to be answered to promote operationally relevant, focused, applied social and behavioral science research that would inform decision- and policymakers and assist operational partners in mitigating the crimes of labor trafficking and human trafficking more broadly. This report describes the authors' methods, findings, and recommendations.

At last: a concise, practical guide that shows managers how to create agility at the bargaining table through thoughtful planning and preparation in the weeks, months, and years before formal negotiations begin, and how to do that on top of your regular full-time job.Agility in labor agreement negotiations is the ability to recognize and respond in the moment to threats and opportunities, both anticipated and unexpected. Agility gives you the confidence to talk with a party you may or may not be able to trust and have a conversation the outcome of which will significantly impact your company and future collective bargaining agreements. Agility allows you to pivot.

Global migration movements are also reflected in classrooms. However, the professional re-entry of migrant teachers with and without a refugee background has been neglected for a long time. This publication, which was developed in the European project "International Teachers for Tomorrow's School" (ITTS), is dedicated to this question. In seven country contributions, the opportunities and challenges of returning to work in Belgium, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Poland, Slovenia and Türkiye are examined - for some of the countries, new ground was broken. It is shown which conditions favour, challenge or prevent a new professional start. In addition, the results of the cross-national ITTS study are presented, in which high satisfaction values are reflected among those teachers who succeeded in re-entering the profession despite many hurdles. Finally, the findings of the project are condensed into a Series of hints and recommendations.

This book explores how migrants and refugees can revitalise peripheral regions and communities economically. The extent to which migrants stimulate the economic activities of these regions through labour market participation, entrepreneurship, innovation and consumption is examined theoretically and empirically for the EU as a whole, as well as through empirical case studies that highlight the impact of migration at macro, company, and individual levels. A particular focus is given to the economic consequences of Third Country Nationals to places beyond the cities, i.e. the peripheral and remote regions of Europe.This book aims to provide insight into the role of migrations in low productive and labour-intensive regions. The authors provide innovative policy recommendations to stimulate the positive economic consequences of immigration to places beyond the cities. It will be of interest to students, researchers, and policymakers working within labour economics and migration and integration policies.

This book portrays India as a representative of post-colonial democratic republic states with a parliamentary form of federal-structured government and analyzes the critical challenges faced by such states in generating broadly shared economic well-being and quality of life. The reader is shown how creating and utilizing physical, human, financial, and social assets under the aegis of public policies help achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to provide a global framework to move toward a more equitable, peaceful, resilient, and prosperous society by 2030. It not only addresses how the state¿s capacity has long been linked to the available economic resources, but also unfolds how the political system thus evolves to crucially determine the capacity of the state to implement its programs. The chapters of this book are particularly focused on judging the state¿s capacity amid the neo-liberal ascendancy that has been triggered by the opening up of both the domestic and external economy, significantly initiated since 1991 and popularly known as the economic reforms in India.Examined here is the potency of the public policies of the country in fulfilling the sustainable development agendas, the specificity of which places the state at the heart of its execution, unlike many other versions of development that would be executed in parallel with or without states¿ action. This work book has three principal foci facets within the broad swath of discussions covered by different chapters: (1) It critically examines how successful remains the public policies in mobilizing the population is mobilized to the next orbit of income, employment, education, and health consequent to amid the existing considerable magnitude of social and economic inequalities while achieving ¿equity¿ has always been the declared agenda in the post-reform public policy frameworks; (2) It traces the rationality of the transformation of the public policies and welfare strategies duringthe post-reform period in terms of motives, goals, and coverage to achieve the SDGs; and, (3) It reviews specific post-reform policies in terms of their potency to stimulate the system in addressing sustainable development. and upholding the state¿s dominant and structuring intervention to resolve the existing inequalities and ensure that society develops amidst a harmonious world reconciled with nature.

"Eugene McCormac writes that running away was characteristic of servitude and that it cut into profits." - Liberation Theology Along the Potomac (2011)"In Eugene McCormac's study of indentured servants in Maryland, he notes that in the Assembly of 1637/38 there were fifteen former servants." - Social and Political Disorder in Proprietary Maryland (1970)"From Eugene McCormac in 1904...to Gloria Main...historians have seen the plantation system as inimicable to the interest of free craftsmen." - Colonial Chesapeake Society (2015)Is there any truth to claims that white people were kept as slaves on early colonial American plantations?University of California Professor of American History, Eugene Irving McCormac (1872-1943), answers this question and more in his 85-page book "White Servitude in Maryland, 1634-1820."In introducing his book, McCormac writes:"For a number of years the involuntary emigrants probably outnumbered those who went of their own free wills....The system of servitude thus early established in Virginia was adopted by Lord Baltimore as a means of settling and developing the colony of Maryland. Too poor to send out settlers himself, he induced others to transport servants in return for grants of land in the new colony."

Trade unions have repeatedly been challenged by neoliberal programmes implemented within Member States of theEuropean Union (EU) and at the European level. The twentyseven country chapters at the core of this book chart the features of the neoliberal challenge in the EU Member States and the measures implemented by unions in their attempts to adapt to changed circumstances since 2000. It is clear that union activity, either independently or in conjunction with allies, will be at the centre of revitalization campaigns if the pieces left from the neoliberal challenges are to be picked up and wielded into a coherent response.This book offers a comprehensive comparative overview of the development, structure, and policies of national trade union movements in the EU. It presents an in-depth analysis of the challenges facing these organizations and their strategic and policy responses from 2000 to 2020.

Arbejdsmarkedet bliver mere ulige og mere utrygt – flere bliver fattige. Statistikkerne maler et billede af et samfund, hvor forskellen på top og bund øges, hvor virksomhederne ansætter flere og flere i usikre stillinger uden fast timetal eller rettigheder, og hvor antallet af mennesker i arbejde, som alligevel er fattige (eller ligefrem hjemløse), bliver større og større. Men hvordan har det kunnet ske? Det europæiske samarbejde skulle skabe vækst og velstand, og vores sagnomspundne og gudsbenådede danske model skulle jo beskytte os mod ulighed, utryghed og fattigdom. Går vi en dyster fremtid i møde?Det forsøger Europa-parlamentsmedlem Marianne Vind at give svar på i denne bog. Hun kigger både på den teknologiske udviklings betydning for arbejdsmarkedet, på hvordan EU har omfavnet globaliseringen (og glemt at regulere den) og på, hvordan en svækket arbejderbevægelse har været ude af stand til at yde tilstrækkelig modstand. Men Marianne Vind kigger også fremad og ser på, hvordan vi kan bruge teknologien til fordel for alle, på hvordan vi tager magten tilbage fra markedet i EU, og på hvordan vi igen bliver i stand til at styrke arbejderbevægelsen. Bogen er skrevet til dig, der ser eller oplever uretfærdighederne på arbejdsmarkedet, og til dig, som gerne vil kæmpe imod.Det er en bog, der handler om, hvor altafgørende arbejdsmarkedet er for vores samfundsmodel og for hele Europas velstand. Men også om hvor ødelæggende arbejdsmarkedet kan virke, hvis vi ikke tager os i agt.

This book deals with the economic impact of technological changes and the rise of passenger shipping on social relations on board and ashore in European shipping industries between c.1850 and 2000. The changes in motive power, communication techniques and positioning technologies and the rise of passenger shipping went together with the creation of new tasks and functions and the marginalization or disappearance of traditional jobs and skills. This book presents case-studies on changes in different maritime professions between the middle of the nineteenth century and the end of the twentieth century, covering the shipping industries of a variety of seafaring countries in Europe. The subjects include changes in maritime labour at large, changes in specific groups of deck, catering or engine room personnel, such as captains, cooks, catering personnel, engineers, or radio-operators. A number of chapters employ a prosopographical or micro-historical approach, while others applya spatial perspective, analyze business records, materials from professional associations or distil information from large sets of quantitative data. This book will be of interest to academics and students of economic history, maritime and labour history.

In The Immigrant Superpower, Tim Kane argues that immigration has long been a source of American strength and that exceptional immigrants have been crucial to American exceptionalism. Deftly combining stories of immigrants who have contributed to the American experience with analysis of the effects of immigration on wages and unemployment, Kane's impassioned view of how immigration has made America great stands in contrast to the broken and dysfunctional debate about immigration.

This volume explores one of the most complex labour landscapes of India - the urban daily labour market. These markets form an important sector of the urban informal labour market and contribute significantly to the Indian economy. This book presents an empirical, comparative picture of daily labour markets, in Gujarat, Western India.These markets consist mostly of intra-state and interstate migrant workers who suffer from layered multiple marginalities based on markers of informality, migrant status, caste, ethnicity, gender and poor agency and often live in the peripheries of the cities without any rights and entitlements to their spaces and services. This study, based on an extensive survey of three cities in Gujarat, contains descriptions and analyses of the places of migration and their causes as well as the working and living conditions of the workers along with their spending patterns on food, health, education and leisure. It mirrors the work, life and issues of these workers on the regional level while contributing to a better understanding for future policy interventions.An in-depth study, the book will be of interest to students and researchers of labour economics, labour studies, urban planning, social work, sociology, anthropology, and demography. It will also be useful to NGOs/trade unions working with migrant workers, civil servants in Labour department and other related departments, city planners and policy makers.
