Ritual and Systems Thinking Managing an Initial Encounter

To many individuals and organisations situations generated by the world coronavirus pandemic have posed challenges and opportunities. We need to rethink how we interact with each other and with our natural environments. This book offers a way forward by proposing the use of rituals insight: semi-encoded patterns of thinking or actions to help us rebuild a sense of community which integrated with insights of applied systems thinking and in contrast to a dominant pragmatist orientation of thinking and action could help us further cope with work or education situations in which we still want to pursue our authenticity as human beings. This book offers ways to help make sense of how we could systemically and compassionately slow down and cope with work or education during and after the world coronavirus pandemic. It does so by integrating ideas about ritual with current research and practice on applied systems thinking. The author establishes a dialogue for co-existence between individuals and the knowledge disciplines of creativity and applied systems thinking using the mediation of rituals to help us appreciate our world with others. This conversation is much needed given our sense of uncertainty during and after the world coronavirus pandemic and the challenges or opportunities offered by hybrid work and education. Throughout the book the conversation explores new directions for research and practice beyond “futureaction” perspectives or orientations and the inclusion of electronically mediated spaces. The insights provided in this book offer a vital resource for management researchers and upper-level students particularly those researching and studying applied systems thinking and creativity. | Ritual and Systems Thinking Managing an Initial Encounter

Translation and Big Details Part-Whole Thinking as Practice and Theory

In the age of big data evidence keeps suggesting that small elusive and infrequent details make all the difference in our appreciation of humanistic texts—film fiction and philosophy. This book argues from a cross-disciplinary perspective that expertise in humanistic translation is precisely the capacity to capture those details that are bigger than they seem. In humanistic translation the expert handling of big details usually serves audiences and the original but mala fide translation also works the details for subtle manipulation and audience deception. A focus on textual detail is therefore characteristic of humanistic translators but also compatible with central claims of the cultural turn in translation studies. This book written by a scholar and teacher of literary essayistic and audiovisual translation endeavors to articulate a seemingly dual interest—on textual detail and cultural analysis—as a single one. It theorizes connections between micro and macro analysis between translation as detail and translation as culture thus hoping to build bridges between humanistic translators and translation scholars. It acknowledges tensions between practice and theory and proposes a way forward: practitioners and scholars share ways of thinking—varieties of part-whole thinking—that machines can never acquire. | Translation and Big Details Part-Whole Thinking as Practice and Theory

The Zimbabwean Maverick Dambudzo Marechera and Utopian Thinking

This book seeks to unfold the complexity within the works of Dambudzo Marechera and presents scholars and readers with a way of reading his works in light of utopian thinking. Writing during a traumatic transitional period in Zimbabwe’s history Marechera witnessed the upheavals caused by different parties battling for power in the nation. Aware of the fact that all institutionalized narratives – whether they originated from the colonial governance of the UK Ian Smith’s white minority regime or Zimbabwe’s revolutionary parties – appeal to visions of a utopian society but reveal themselves to be fiction Marechera imagined a unique utopia. For Marechera utopia is not a static entity but a moment of perpetual change. He rethinks utopia by phrasing it as an ongoing event that ceaselessly contests institutionalized narratives of the postcolonial self and its relationship to society. Marechera writes towards a vision of an alternative future for the country. Yet it is a vision that does not constitute a fully rounded sense of utopia. Being cautious about the world and the operation of power upon the people rather than imposing his own utopian ideals Marechera chooses instead to destabilize the narrative constitution of the self in relation to society in order to turn towards a truly radical utopian thinking that empowers the individual. | The Zimbabwean Maverick Dambudzo Marechera and Utopian Thinking

A Study of Thinking

A Study of Thinking is a pioneering account of how human beings achieve a measure of rationality in spite of the constraints imposed by bias limited attention and memory and the risks of error imposed by pressures of time and ignorance. First published in 1956 and hailed at its appearance as a groundbreaking study it is still read three decades later as a major contribution to our understanding of the mind. In their insightful new introduction the authors relate the book to the cognitive revolution and its handmaiden artificial intelligence. The central theme of the work is that the scientific study of human thinking must concentrate upon meaning and its achievement rather than upon the behaviorists' stimuli and responses and the presumed connections between them. The book's point of departure is how human beings group the world of particulars into ordered classes and categories-concepts-in order to impose a coherent and manageable order upon that world. But rather than relying principally on philosophical speculation to make its point A Study of Thinking reports dozens of experiments to elucidate the strategies that people use in penetrating to the deep structure of the information they encounter. This seminal study was a major event in the cognitive revolution of the 1950s. Reviewing it at the time J. Robert Oppenheimer said it has in many ways the flavor of conviction which makes it point to the future.

Eco-Friendly and Fair Fast Fashion and Consumer Behaviour

The make-take-waste paradigm of fast fashion explains much of the producer and consumer behavior patterns towards fast fashion. The evolution from a two-season fashion calendar to fast fashion characterized by rapid product cycles from retailers and impulse buying by consumers presents new challenges to the environment workplace and labour practices. This book provides a comprehensive overview of new insights into consumer behaviour mechanisms in order to shift practices toward sustainable fashion and to minimize the negative impacts of fast fashion on the environment and society. Concepts and techniques are presented that could overcome the formidable economic drivers of fast fashion and lead toward a future of sustainable fashion. While the need for change in the fashion industry post-Rana Plaza could not be more obvious alternative and more sustainable consumption models have been under-investigated. The paucity of such research extends to highly consumptive consumer behaviours regarding fast fashion (i. e. impulse buying and throwaways) and the related impediments these behaviours pose for sustainable fashion. Written by leading researchers in the field of sustainable fashion and supported by the Textile Institute this book evaluates fashion trends what factors have led to new trends and how the factors supporting fast fashion differ from those of the past. It explores the economic drivers of fast fashion and what social environmental and political factors should be maintained and business approaches adopted in order for fast fashion to be a sustainable model. In particular it provides consumer behaviour concepts that can be utilized at the retail level to support sustainable fashion. | Eco-Friendly and Fair Fast Fashion and Consumer Behaviour
