Jung’s Psychoid Concept Contextualised

Jung’s Psychoid Concept Contextualised

Jung’s Psychoid Concept Contextualised investigates the body-mind question from a clinical Jungian standpoint and establishes a contextual topography for Jung’s psychoid concept insofar as it relates to a deeply unconscious realm that is neither solely physiological nor psychological. Seen as a somewhat mysterious and little understood element of Jung’s work this concept nonetheless holds a fundamental position in his overall understanding of the mind since he saw the psychoid unconscious as the foundation of archetypal experience. Situating the concept within Jung’s oeuvre and drawing on interviews with clinicians about their clinical work this book interrogates the concept of the psychoid in a novel way. Providing an elucidation of Jung’s ideas by tracing the historical development of the psychoid concept Addison sets its evolution in a variety of contexts within the history of ideas in order to offer differing perspectives from which to frame an understanding. Addison continues this trajectory through to the present day by reviewing subsequent studies undertaken by the post-Jungian community. This contextual background affords an understanding of the psychoid concept from a variety of different perspectives both cultural and clinical. The book provides an important addition to Jungian theory demonstrating the usefulness of Jung’s psychoid concept in the present day and offering a range of understandings about its clinical and cultural applications. This book will be of great interest to the international Jungian community including academics researchers and postgraduate students engaged in the study of Jungian or analystical psychology. It should also be essential reading for clinicians.

Goldratt's Rules of Flow

Goldratt's Rules of Flow

Marc Wilson is not giving up. He is determined to turn around the struggling family company and keep it despite his father’s decision to sell. The problem is that they are late on more and more projects and their customers won’t tolerate it anymore. Marc is looking everywhere for a solution when in one of his MBA classes he comes across a unique approach that views operations in terms of flow. The concept of flow is straightforward. It’s easy to visualize the stream of projects going through the system and understand that if something clogs the flow the projects pile up; the lead time gets longer and as a result the reliability of due dates suffers. What is not so easy is to uncover the specific obstacles that obstruct the flow and figure out how to remove them. Goldratt’s Rules of Flow is the book that the great Eli Goldratt author of The Goal wanted to write about his later developments in the field of project management. As he passed away before accomplishing it his daughter Efrat Goldratt a brilliant author in her own right has picked up the mantle.

Concept Analysis in Nursing A New Approach

Concept Analysis in Nursing A New Approach

Concept analysis is an established genre of inquiry in nursing introduced in the 1970s. Currently over 100 concept studies are published annually yet the methods used within this field have rarely been questioned. In Concept Analysis in Nursing: A New Approach Paley provides a critical analysis of the philosophical assumptions that underpin nursing’s concept analysis methods. He argues provocatively that there are no such things as concepts as traditionally conceived. Drawing on Wittgenstein and Construction Grammar the book first makes a case for dispensing with the traditional concept of a ‘concept’ and then provides two examples of a new approach examining the use of ‘hope’ and ‘moral distress’. Casting doubt on the assumption that ‘hope’ always stands for an ‘inner’ state of the person the book shows that the word’s function varies with the grammatical construction it appears in. Similarly it argues that ‘moral distress’ is not the name of a mental state but a normative classification used to bolster a narrative concerning nursing’s identity. Concept Analysis in Nursing is a fresh and challenging book written by a philosopher interested in nursing. It will appeal to researchers and postgraduate students in the areas of nursing health philosophy and linguistics. It will also interest those familiar with the author’s previous book Phenomenology as Qualitative Research. | Concept Analysis in Nursing A New Approach

C. G. Jung’s Archetype Concept Theory Research and Applications

C. G. Jung’s Archetype Concept Theory Research and Applications

The concept of archetypes is at the core of C. G. Jung’s analytical psychology. In this interesting and accessible volume Roesler summarises the classical theory of archetypes and the archetypal stages of the individuation process as it was developed by Jung and his students. Various applications of archetypes in cultural studies as well as in clinical practice are demonstrated with detailed case studies dream series myths fairy tales and so on. The book also explores how the concept has further developed as a result of research and for the first time integrates findings from anthropology human genetics and the neurosciences. Based on these contemporary insights Roesler also makes a compelling argument for why some of Jung’s views on the concept should be comprehensively revised. Offering new insights on foundational Jungian topics like the collective unconscious persona and shadow C. G. Jung’s Archetype Concept is of great interest to Jungian students analysts psychotherapists and scholars. | C. G. Jung’s Archetype Concept Theory Research and Applications

A People's Europe Turning a Concept into Content

A People's Europe Turning a Concept into Content

First published in 1999. The aim of this book is to assess the impact of the rules of Community law or absence thereof of some issues which directly and intimately affect the level and quality of living in the European Union and to concentrate on problems experienced first- hand by a number of ordinary people working and living within the EU. Thus the topics covered range from an attempt to define some key features of the nebulous and controversial concept of ‘citizenship of the Union’ to policy networks and implementation of the Union’s structural funds. Furthermore in assessing and addressing intensity of the integrationist effort needed academic specialists tackle the sex religion and race aspects of discrimination within the Union critically examine the EU immigration and asylum policy and the limited rights and particular treatment that various categories of third country nationals enjoy under Community and/or national law analyse the external dimension of the Community’s Human Rights policy and seek to establish whether or not any common ground exists between the cultural identities of the Member States. | A People's Europe Turning a Concept into Content

The Analytic Field A Clinical Concept

The Analytic Field A Clinical Concept

Until now no book has ever attempted to compare and contrast contributions on analytic field theory and at the same time to explore its clinical and technical implications. This volume is intended for the first time to link together many of these writings and to provide an initial wide-ranging survey of the subject - for it is our contention that a theory of the field in various of its loci can also be inhabited by different theories. A particular aim of this book is to present not only theoretical discussions of field theory but also contributions on clinical work and technique. For this reason we have given preference to articles with a substantial clinical component which exemplify specific underlying technical theory. In the Babel of psychoanalytic languages clinical practice is in our view the most effective way of comparing psychoanalytic models. ' | The Analytic Field A Clinical Concept

The Concept of Property in Kant Fichte and Hegel Freedom Right and Recognition

The Concept of Property in Kant Fichte and Hegel Freedom Right and Recognition

This book provides a detailed account of the role of property in German Idealism. It puts the concept of property in the center of the philosophical systems of Kant Fichte and Hegel and shows how property remains tied to their conceptions of freedom right and recognition. The book begins with a critical genealogy of the concept of property in modern legal philosophy followed by a reconstruction of the theory of property in Kant’s Doctrine of Right Fichte’s Foundations of Natural Right and Hegel’s Jena Realphilosophie. By turning to the tradition of German Rechtsphilosophie as opposed to the more standard libertarian and utilitarian frameworks of property it explores the metaphysical normative political and material questions that make property intelligible as a social relation. The book formulates a normative theory of property rooted in practical reason mutual recognition and social freedom. This relational theory of property inspired by German Idealism brings a fresh angle to contemporary property theory. Additionally it provides crucial philosophical background to 19th-century debates on private property inequality labor socialism capitalism and the state. The Concept of Property in Kant Fichte and Hegel will appeal to scholars and advanced students interested in 19th-century German philosophy social and political philosophy philosophy of law political theory and political economy. | The Concept of Property in Kant Fichte and Hegel Freedom Right and Recognition

Jung's Shadow Concept The Hidden Light and Darkness within Ourselves

Jung's Shadow Concept The Hidden Light and Darkness within Ourselves

This insightful volume is designed as a series of invitations towards living attentiveness examining how we all make the “other” through “projection” (blaming and shaming the other outside ourselves) our enemy with whom we prefer not to dialogue. All of us are faced daily with individual and collective manifestations of the Shadow – all that we fear despise and makes us feel ashamed. Carl Jung’s concept of the Shadow emerging as it did from his personal confrontation with the realms of his unconscious self is one of the most important contributions he made to the understanding of humanity and to depth psychology that realm where the focus is on unconscious processes. The contributors to this book reframe his concept in the context of contemporary Jungian thinking exploring how the Shadow develops in an individual’s infancy and adolescence and its culmination where collective manifestations of the Shadow are addressed. The book offers a voyage through a series of fundamental Shadow concepts and themes including couples relationships disease organizations Evil fundamentalism ecology and boundary violation before ending with a chapter designed to help us integrate the Shadow and hold contra-positions with patience and a tilt towards mutual understanding rather than being locked in polarities. This fascinating new book will be of considerable interest to the general public Jungian analysts trainees scholars and therapists both in training and practice with an interest in the inner world. | Jung's Shadow Concept The Hidden Light and Darkness within Ourselves

The Concept of Monument in Achaemenid Empire

The Concept of Monument in Achaemenid Empire

The aim of this book is to explore the significance of the concept of ‘monument’ in the context of the Achaemenid Empire (550-330 BC) with particular reference to the Royal Ensemble of Persepolis founded by Darius I and built together with his son Xerxes. While Persepolis was built as an ‘intentional monument’ it had already become an ‘historic monument’ during the Achaemenid period. It maintained its symbolic significance in the following centuries even after its destruction by Alexander of Macedonia in 330 BC. The purpose of building Persepolis was to establish a symbol and a common reference for the peoples of the Empire with the Achaemenid Dynasty transmitting significant messages and values such as peace stability grandeur and praise for the dynastic figure of the king as the protector of values and fighting falsehood. While previous research on Achaemenid heritage has mainly been on archaeological and art-historical aspects of Persepolis the present work focuses on the architecture and design of Persepolis. It is supported by studies in the fields of archaeology history and art history as well as by direct survey of the site. The morphological analysis of Persepolis including the study of the proportions of the elevations and the verification of a planning grid for the layout of the entire ensemble demonstrate the univocal will by Darius to plan Persepolis following a precise initial scheme. The study shows how the inscriptions bas-reliefs and the innovative architectural language together express the symbolism values and political messages of the Achaemenid Dynasty exhibiting influence from different lands in a new architectural language and in the plan of the entire site. | The Concept of Monument in Achaemenid Empire

Visual Representations in Science Concept and Epistemology

Visual Representations in Science Concept and Epistemology

Visual representations (photographs diagrams etc. ) play crucial roles in scientific processes. They help for example to communicate research results and hypotheses to scientific peers as well as to the lay audience. In genuine research activities they are used as evidence or as surrogates for research objects which are otherwise cognitively inaccessible. Despite their important functional roles in scientific practices philosophers of science have more or less neglected visual representations in their analyses of epistemic methods and tools of reasoning in science. This book is meant to fill this gap. It presents a detailed investigation into central conceptual issues and into the epistemology of visual representations in science.

The Concept of Genocide in International Criminal Law Developments after Lemkin

The Concept of Genocide in International Criminal Law Developments after Lemkin

This book presents a review of historical and emerging legal issues that concern the interpretation of the international crime of genocide. The Polish legal expert Raphael Lemkin formulated the concept of genocide during the Nazi occupation of Europe and it was then incorporated into the 1948 Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide. This volume looks at the issues that are raised both by the existing international law definition of genocide and by the possible developments that continue to emerge under international criminal law. The authors consider how the concept of genocide might be used in different contexts and see whether the definition in the 1948 convention may need some revision also in the light of the original ideas that were expressed by Lemkin. The book focuses on specific themes that allow the reader to understand some of the problems related to the legal definition of genocide in the context of historical and recent developments. As a valuable contribution to the debate on the significance meaning and application of the crime of genocide the book will be essential reading for students and academics working in the areas of Legal History International Criminal Law Human Rights and Genocide Studies.

The Concept of a University

The Concept of a University

Taking on the challenge of the postmodernists of politics Kenneth Minogue argues forcefully and persuasively that the current dominant philosophies of education rest upon a mistake. The fashionable belief that the university is society's handmaiden is confronted by a view of the university as an institution with an independent vitality and function. Minogue at one and the same time reminds us of the sources of admiration for university life in the medieval world and how it rested squarely on its essential autonomy from the very social pressures that have come to define the modern university. The Concept of a University traces many confusions imposed by political ideology to a failure to distinguish academic inquiry from other kinds of intellectual activity such as journalism religious proselytizing and high quality propaganda. Minogue holds that where the university lacks a clear sense of the difference between the academic and the pragmatic its vitality is sapped by conflicting purposes. Much of the present debate about the crisis in universities rests upon a fundamental error of trying to fit them into some scheme of social functions. Minogue's analysis breaks through much muddled thinking on this subject presenting instead a coherent relevant and stimulating approach to higher education. In a new introduction Minogue tells us we have become frightfully tolerant. Anyone can become anything and we all belong to the one practical world of churning problems and solutions. There is no doubt that a new world is being born. It seems to be a world that will have little place for the disinterested pursuit of truth. A great deal of old fashioned scholarship survives-partly by silence cunning and exile' -in the universities' of the present day but little relationship remains between what we used to call universities' and the things called by that name today. Kenneth Minogue is professor emeritus of political science at the London School of Economics. He was born in New Zealand educated in Australia and has made his life and academic career in the United Kingdom. He is the author of The Liberal Mind Nationalism and most recently Democracy and the Moral Life. He is a director of the Centre for Policy Studies and also senior research fellow of the Bruges Group where he remains a member of its academic advisory council.

Jeff Wall and the Concept of the Picture

Jeff Wall and the Concept of the Picture

This book grapples with fundamental questions about the evolving nature of pictorial representation and the role photography has played in this ongoing process. These issues are explored through a close analysis of key themes that underpin the photography practice of Canadian artist Jeff Wall and through examining important works that have defined his oeuvre. Wall’s strategic revival of ‘the picture’ has had a resounding influence on the development of contemporary art photography by expanding the conceptual and technical frameworks of the medium and introducing a self-reflexive criticality. Naomi Merritt brings a new and original contribution to the scholarship on one of the most significant figures to have shaped the course of contemporary art photography since the 1970s and shines a light on the multilayered connections between photography and art. This book will be of interest to scholars in the history of photography art and visual culture and contemporary art history. | Jeff Wall and the Concept of the Picture

The Concept of Care in Curriculum Studies Juxtaposing Currere and Hakbeolism

The Concept of Care in Curriculum Studies Juxtaposing Currere and Hakbeolism

The question at the heart of the book is what might an education with self-care and care-for-others look like? Juxtaposing self-understanding through the method of currere and the historical character of hakbeolism (a concept indigenous to Korea referring to a kind of social status people achieve based on a shared academic background) this book articulates how subjective reconstruction of self in conjunction with historical study can be transformative and how this can be extended to social change. Articulating how having one’s own standard can be a way of making one’s life a work of art the author looks at how Korean schooling exercises coercive care disconfirmation and the whip of love for the children’s own good. Emphasis is given to the internalized status of these practices in both students and teachers and to teachers’ and parents’ culpability not only in exercising but also in reproducing these practices through themselves. Going beyond describing and analysing the educational problem of academic (intellectual) achievement-oriented education based on aggressive competition this book suggests ways to address these issues through autobiography (using the method of currere to reconstruct one’s subjectivity) and an ethic of care. | The Concept of Care in Curriculum Studies Juxtaposing Currere and Hakbeolism

Green Growth and Travelism Concept Policy and Practice for Sustainable Tourism

Green Growth and Travelism Concept Policy and Practice for Sustainable Tourism

The green growth paradigm emerged from evolving global strategies that coherently promote a more socially inclusive low-carbon resource-efficient stable economy with decreasing poverty. Opportunities and challenges associated with the paradigm shift are expected to transform the travel and tourism (travelism) sector in all respects and on a global scale. This involves the transformation of the entire travelism value chain as well as the communities in tourism destinations. However there is a lack of systematic reports on wide-ranging and complex implications of the green growth paradigm for the travelism sector. This book focuses on the twin pillars – green growth and travelism – as key building blocks in exploring an essential multi-decade lifestyle change for planetary and human well-being through the lenses of concept policy and practice. It provides a conceptual discussion of the implications of the new development trend for key players in the travelism system offers case studies from both developed and developing countries that highlight key issues in the transformation towards the green economy and explores the policy settings and frameworks on both the global and national levels that underpin travelism green growth. This book offers tourism industry players academics students policy makers and practitioners a comprehensive discussion of the latest progress in green growth and travelism. | Green Growth and Travelism Concept Policy and Practice for Sustainable Tourism

'Progress' in Zimbabwe? The Past and Present of a Concept and a Country

'Progress' in Zimbabwe? The Past and Present of a Concept and a Country

Zimbabwe's severe crisis - and a possible way out of it with a transitional government and the new era for which it prepares the ground - demands a coherent scholarly response. 'Progress' can be employed as an organising theme across many disciplinary approaches to Zimbabwe's societal devastation. At wider levels too the concept of progress is fitting. It underpins 'modern' 'liberal' and 'radical' perspectives of development pervading the social sciences and humanities. Yet perceptions of 'progress' are subject increasingly to intensive critical inquiry. Their gruesome end is signified in the political projects of Robert Mugabe and ZANU-PF. John Gray's Black Mass: Apocalyptic Religion and the Death of Utopia indicates this. It is expected that participants will engage directly in debates about how the idea of 'progress' has informed their disciplines - from political science and history to labour and agrarian studies and then relate these arguments to the Zimbabwean case in general and their research in particular. This book was published as a special issue of the Journal of Contemporary African Studies. | 'Progress' in Zimbabwe? The Past and Present of a Concept and a Country

Towards a New Concept of the Political A Defence of Universalism and Difference

Towards a New Concept of the Political A Defence of Universalism and Difference

This book addresses the current crisis of democratic politics and its phase of ‘interregnum’ – in which the past finds it hard to die and the future finds it difficult to be born – by proposing a radical redefinition of the concept of the Political. Drawing on the thoughts of Antonio Gramsci and Walter Benjamin among others it explores the meaning of the lemma auctoritas – the opposition between authority and power – and offers a comparison of the Frankfurt School’s radical critique of power with Georges Bataille’s critique of political economy and consumerist productivism demonstrating how the two ultimately converge. Based on an ontology of the present that is critical of ‘identity obsession’ and advances instead a universalism of difference the author proposes a new understanding of politics founded not on ‘vertical’ domination but on a ‘horizontal’ recomposition of subjectivities allowing interaction and acting-in-common between different forms of life. This book will therefore appeal to scholars of social and political theory. | Towards a New Concept of the Political A Defence of Universalism and Difference

Architectural Structures Visualizing Load Flow Geometrically

Architectural Structures Visualizing Load Flow Geometrically

Architectural Structures presents an alternative approach to understanding structural engineering load flow using a visually engaging and three-dimensional format. This book presents a ground-breaking new way of establishing equilibrium in architectural structures using the Modern Müller-Breslau method. While firmly grounded in principles of mechanics this method does not use traditional algebraic statics nor does it use classical graphic statics. Rather it solely uses new geometric tools. Both statically determinate and statically indeterminate structures are analyzed using this graphic method to provide a geometric understanding of how load flows through architectural structures. This book includes approachable coverage of parametric modeling of two-dimensional and three-dimensional structures as well as more advanced topics such as indeterminate structural analysis and plastic analysis. Hundreds of detailed drawings created by the author are included throughout to aid understanding. Architecture and structural engineering students can employ this novel method by hand sketching or by programming in parametric design software. A detailed yet approachable guide Architectural Structures is ideal for students of architecture construction management and structural engineering at all levels. Practitioners will find the method extremely useful for quickly solving load tracing problems in three-dimensional grids. | Architectural Structures Visualizing Load Flow Geometrically
