    233,95 kr.

    In Law and Economic Order Friesen gives us a provocative series of insights by deconstructingthe tension between ‘maintaining order’ and ‘competition’. Requisite Economy helps todeeply understand what is emerging in society by embracing a true holistic perspective. Thisis a rich and compelling call-to-rethink for anyone looking for new ways to deal with societalchallenges. I strongly recommend reading it.—Jan De Visch, Managing Director Connect & Transform, Exec. Prof. Flanders Business School***Law and Economic Order is an enormously challenging and important book to read: bothbrilliant and opaque, traversing abstruse byways that only a handful of people in the worldcan follow, and in single sentences laying bare hidden structures governing the evolutionof law and economies that I will contemplate for years. This book is essential reading forleaders in ethical societies, who are navigating the treacherous waters of an international legaland economic order whose complexity may well exceed human cognitive limits to managehumanely. Friesen has given us a compass that may well save us from disaster.—Christophe Lambert, PhD, Chairman, Golden Helix Inc.***Friesen’s Law and Economic Order has put me to an intense but rewarding work of interpretation...I hope that reading Law and Economic Order may resonate with the reader’sown experiences in the way he or she deliberates over the Common Good (implicit or explicitin his or her social network) and its values. I cannot leave out applying the rich principlesdeveloped by Friesen in this work.—Luc Hoebeke, Belgian consultant, author and lecturer in the field of self-organization,innovation processes and human activity systems

  • - : Organizational Science Examined Philosophically

    On Freedom: Organizational Science Examined PhilosophicallyScientific Freedom, Intellectual Freedom, Moral Freedom, Political Freedom, Spiriitual FreedomA few words about the organization of this book. It follows what can be described as a narrative, in that it moves in stages, each of which combines more than one objective. This is evident, for example, in the first chapter on Scientific Freedom, which endeavors to situate “organization” within a philosophical tradition, the introduction of concepts that have moved organization to science, and the struggle of this science with ethical neutrality—all of which are more confusing to address when treated as separate topics. In an earlier attempt to break this manuscript into topic headings, my impression was that it subtracted from more than added to its clarity. If the narrative, standing alone, could not speak for itself, it probably needed to be reworked. Titles vary with the interest of the intended audience, and I concluded that this book might be of interest to more than one audience—specifically to one interested philosophically in freedom and another interested in a science of organization. - from the author's Preface
