Corporate Governance and Whistleblowing Corporate Culture and Employee Behaviour

Whistleblowing is often about disclosing wrongdoings by members of organisations to persons or organisations that may be able to effect action. Media would at times publish stories of whistleblowers who engage in ‘heroic’ acts of exposing wrongdoings at work but the whistlebowers often face significant negative consequences of their whistleblowing efforts. This book examines effects of national and organisational cultures on the whistleblowing decisions of employees. The book provides empirical evidence of association between organisational culture and whistleblowing and there appears to be a lower likelihood of whistleblowing in organisations that focus more on the cultural dimensions of respect for people innovation and stability. It also illustrates how remaining silent or blowing the whistle in response to observed wrongdoings affects employees’ key work-related attitudes. This book would interest those wish to gain better understanding of the relationship between culture and whistleblowing in organisations. | Corporate Governance and Whistleblowing Corporate Culture and Employee Behaviour

Public Relations and Whistleblowing Golden Handcuffs in Corporate Wrongdoing

There is a growing interest in corporate whistleblowing but no comprehensive research has yet focused on public relations practice. Drawing on extensive research on Fortune 1000 and Wilshire 5000 corporations this book reveals executives’ attitudes and relationships toward their organizations and their impact on whistleblowing. Perhaps unsurprisingly it reveals that wrongdoing in corporations and the privileges of power coexist. Top-ranking public relations executives who are mostly white and male are more likely to be aware of wrongdoing but no more likely to blow the whistle fundamentally due to their positive relationship with their employers. Using the new lens of evolutionary theory this study explains whistleblowing retaliation and relationships and in the light of the connection between whistleblowing behavior and executives’ attitudes it proposes a new theory of the phenomenon of Golden Handcuffs. As public attitudes to corporations corporate social responsibility (CSR) and transparency harden these findings have serious implications for companies globally. Researchers scholars and advanced students in public relations organizational communication corporate communication strategic communication corporate reputation and CSR will find this book full of revealing insights. | Public Relations and Whistleblowing Golden Handcuffs in Corporate Wrongdoing

Intelligence Elites and Public Accountability Relationships of Influence with Civil Society

This book provides a definitive overview of the relationships of influence between civil society and intelligence elites. The secrecy surrounding intelligence means that publication of intelligence is highly restricted barring occasional whistle-blowing and sanitised official leaks. These characteristics mean that intelligence if publicised can be highly manipulated by intelligence elites while civil society’s ability to assess and verify claims is compromised by absence of independent evidence. There are few studies on the relationship between civil society and intelligence elites which makes it hard to form robust assessments or practical recommendations regarding public oversight of intelligence elites. Addressing that lacuna this book analyses two case studies of global political significance. The intelligence practices they focus on (contemporary mass surveillance and Bush-era torture-intelligence policies) have been presented as vital in fighting the ‘Global War on Terror’ enmeshing governments of scores of nation-states while challenging internationally established human rights to privacy and to freedom from torture and enforced disappearance. The book aims to synthesise what is known on relationships of influence between civil society and intelligence elites. It moves away from disciplinary silos to make original recommendations for how a variety of academic disciplines most likely to study the relationship between civil society and intelligence elites (international relations history journalism and media) could productively cross-fertilise. Finally it aims to create a practical benchmark to enable civil society to better hold intelligence elites publicly accountable. This book will be of great interest to students of intelligence studies surveillance media journalism civil society democracy and IR in general. | Intelligence Elites and Public Accountability Relationships of Influence with Civil Society

Betrayals And Treason Violations Of Trust And Loyalty

Betrayal and Treason examines betrayals as violations of both trust and loyalty. It offers a typology based on membership in or out of collectives within the contexts of secrecy/non-secrecy. The book shows that betrayals include such categories as espionage whistle-blowing infidelity political turncoating conversions collaboration with occupying forces informers mutinies defections strike-breakers professional intellectual and international betrayals human rights violations surveillance assassinations and state sponsored terror. Each one of the categories is presented with enticing stimulating and appropriate real-life illustrations and narratives. The book focuses on treason examines diverse cultures (European countries Israel Canada the United States) and such periods as World War II the conquest of Mexico and looks at such figures as Benedict Arnold Ezra Pound Edward VIII Malinche Vindkun Quisling Lord Haw Haw Tokyo Rose and a host of others. Since World War II is an excellent period through which one can examine issues of treason and since there has been such an increased interest in World War II this book places a particular emphasis on that period and war. Betrayal and Treason is original in its conceptual framework and in its breadth and depth of coverage. Yet judging by the amount of books published on similar topics in the past there can hardly be a doubt that there has always been a genuine demand and hunger for an inclusive and integrative book such as this one. By offering a new and interpretive framework for betrayals this book can serve both scholars and lay people alike in gaining a much better understanding of such a complex and fascinating behavior as betrayal. | Betrayals And Treason Violations Of Trust And Loyalty

Quantum Reality Theory and Philosophy

As probably the most successful scientific theory ever created quantum theory has profoundly changed our view of the world and extended the limits of our knowledge impacting both the theoretical interpretation of a tremendous range of phenomena and the practical development of a host of technological breakthroughs. Yet for all its success quantum theory remains utterly baffling. Quantum Reality: Theory and Philosophy Second Edition cuts through much of the confusion to provide readers with an exploration of quantum theory that is as authoritatively comprehensive as it is intriguingly comprehensible. The book has been fully updated throughout to include the latest results in quantum entanglement the theory and practical applications of quantum computing quantum cosmology and quantum gravity. Needing little more than a school level physics and mathematics background this volume requires only an interest in understanding how quantum theory came to be and the myriad ways it both explains how our universe functions and extends the reach of human knowledge. Written by well-known physics author and teacher Dr. Jonathan Allday this highly engaging work: • Presents a thorough grounding in the theoretical machinery of quantum physics • Offers a whistle-stop tour through the early part of the 20th century when the founding fathers of quantum theory forever altered the frontiers of human thought • Provides an example-filled interpretation of the theory its applications and its pinnacle in quantum field theory (QFT) so crucial in shaping ideas about the nature of reality • Separates fact from speculation regarding quantum physics’ ability to provide a starting point for philosophical queries into ultimate understanding and the limits of science The world beneath the one that we experience with our senses is profoundly mysterious and while we may never completely unravel that mystery quantum theory allows us to come closer than ever to understanding where the science leaves off and the mystery begins. Quantum Reality: Theory and Philosophy Second Edition makes that understanding accessible to anyone possessing a quest for knowledge and a sense of awe. | Quantum Reality Theory and Philosophy
