Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. In an era shadowed by pessimism, this book heralds a vibrant statement of optimism for both human and non-human life, grounded in diversity, freedom, and knowledge. It counters the gloom, acknowledging the widespread suffering and threats to our biosphere, yet it is driven by a mission to lessen this pain and enhance lasting human wellbeing. Our collective challenge-the wellbeing problem-is how to not just survive but to thrive. This exploration delves into necessary changes for sustained flourishing, highlighting the urgency of this existential quest. Within our current crises lie seeds of opportunity, the chance to envision and craft a new reality. This isn't a plea to those in power for systemic overhaul or utopian dreams; rather, it's a direct call to individuals. It urges us to fiercely guard our freedoms, recognizing that diversity and liberty fuel the growth of knowledge-our true wealth. The author's hope for life's future hinges on our embracing this responsibility with vigilance.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Though diversity and interconnectedness are inherent and integral to the natural order, they often clash in the social world. To address this, Resilient Democratic Governance: Navigating Unity in Diversity for Sustainable Well-Being proposes a comprehensive framework advocating for the harmonious integration of diversity and interconnectedness in social structures, emphasizing their pivotal role in building resilience and achieving sustainable wellbeing.Girol Karacaoglu's innovative study explores the convergence of various political philosophies and social elements while still maintaining a sense of unity and cohesion in society. Through the perspectives of thinkers like Abd al-Karim al-Jili, Spinoza, Confucius, Alfred North Whitehead, Abraham Maslow, Sir Isaiah Berlin, Ronald Dworkin, Satish Kumar, and Amartya Sen, each chapter delves into how these scholars have conceptualized unity in different domains, spanning nature, creative processes, freedom, value, ecology, and economy. Karacaoglu argues that embracing this diversity-in-unity framework can serve as a guide to governance for sustainable wellbeing. His argument culminates in a reflection on the paths laid out by the Buddha and Lao Tzu, underscoring their profound insights into achieving balance and harmony in our interconnected world.Emerging as a hopeful voice amid increasing ideological polarisation, this thoughtful work reimagines democratic governance to offer a practical guide for deliberate and transformative social and political change.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The focus of this book is the practice of social policy in Aotearoa New Zealand. It is intended to complement and update the fourth and final edition of Cheyne et al.'s Social Policy in New Zealand (2008), which pre-dated the three-term tenure of the conservative Key/English governments and their concomitant approaches to social policy. In the first two decades of the 21st century, both conservative and socialdemocratic governments have had opportunity to conceive and deliver programmes aligned with their fundamental values and concepts. These include the Fifth Labour Government (1999-2008) headed by Helen Clark, the Fifth National Government (2008-17) under John Key and Bill English, and the Sixth Labour Government (2017-) led by Jacinda Ardern. Appraisals of the policy impacts achieved by alternating approaches to government are offered through each of the chapters on specific policy areas. Each chapter also introduces the reader to the background and context to its central topic, as well as key concepts, ideas and influences, and the main alternate views that have been put forward. In addition to assessing recent experiences, each chapter considers A new wide-ranging, multi-author work covering all aspects of social policy in New Zealand Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. 210 pages. How would we design, implement and evaluate public policy if it were based on our love for future generations? For the philosopher Walter Kaufman, 'I love yo u' n'I want you to live the life that you want to live. I will be as happy as y ou if you do; and as unhappy as you if you don't.' nWe have no idea what future generations will value and how they will want to live. Nor do we wish to prescri be how they choose to live, so long as they do not prevent others from living th e lives they value. nWe want to prepare and look after the 'wellbeing garden' - the broader ecosystems - that will provide them with the opportunities and capac ity to survive and thrive, to flourish in safety. As another philosopher, Walter Benjamin, put it, 'We want to liberate the future from its deformation in the p resent.' nWellbeing is about the ability of individuals and communities to live the lives they value - now and in the future. This is their human right. It woul d be unjust to prevent the enjoyment of lives centred on chosen values. Preventi ng such injustice across generations should be the primary focus of a public pol icy that has intergenerational wellbeing as its objective. nThis book examines t he processes by which wellbeing-focused public policy objectives are established , prioritised, funded, implemented, managed, and evaluated, while ensuring that they remain relevant as social preferences change over time.…
