Showing results for "Emotion" in Politics & Government

The Heartbreak Hotel ist ein Refugium für Frauen mit gebrochenem Herzen. Ein Ort zum Innehalten, um zur Ruhe zu kommen, zum Heilen und Wachsen. Ein Ort, an dem die Hörerin das Gefühl hat, verstanden zu werden, unterstützt und umsorgt. Die meisten Frauen erleben mindestens einmal im Leben den Verlust einer geliebten Person – er trifft sie oft brutal, erschüttert sie in ihren Grundfesten, und es dauert häufig Monate, wenn nicht Jahre, bis sie wieder zu sich und einem stabilen Leben gefunden haben.

The term "resentment" has dominated US news analysis since November 2016. Despite its increased use, this word seems to defy easy categorization. Does "resentment" describe many interlocking sentiments, or is it just another way of saying "anger"? Does it suggest an irrational grievance, as opposed to a legitimate callout of injustice? Does it imply political leanings, or is it nonpartisan by nature? Robert A. Schneider explores these questions and more, moving from eighteenth-century Britain to the aftermath of the French Revolution to social movements throughout the twentieth century.

Ego: The Fall of the Twin Towers and the Rise of an Enlightened Humanity by Peter Baumann and Michael W. Taft is the first book to explore the positive evolutionary potential hidden in one of the most destructive events in history. In their examination of the evolutionary implications of 9/11 and its aftermath, the authors contend we are not falling into the grip of a new dark age at all; rather, we are on the verge of a much brighter one as the Darwinian process of natural selection continues to advance humankind.

Today, we are caught in a shame spiral—a vortex of mutual shaming that pervades everything from politics to social media. We are shamed for our looks, our culture, our ethnicity, our sexuality, our poverty, our wrongdoings, our politics. But what is the point of all this shaming and countershaming? Does it work? And if so, for whom? In Shame, David Keen explores the function of modern shaming, paying particular attention to how shame is instrumentalized and weaponized.

Angesichts der derzeitigen Weltlage - Krieg, Klima und Corona - fällt es zunehmend schwer, hoffnungsvoll in die Zukunft zu blicken. Doch wie können wir in diesen Zeiten für uns selbst Zuversicht entwickeln und damit auch für unsere Kinder? Wie schaffen wir es, den Kopf angesichts eher düsterer Perspektiven über Wasser zu halten? Und ist es wirklich schlimm, wenn wir daran einmal scheitern? Till Raether denkt über all diese Fragen nach und trifft damit den Nerv der Zeit.

Dominique Moïsi, a leading authority on international affairs, demonstrates that our post-9/11 world has become divided by more than cultural fault lines between nations and civilizations. Moïsi brilliantly chronicles how the geopolitics of today is characterized by a "clash of emotions," and how cultures of fear, humiliation, and hope are reshaping the world.

Truth-Driven Thinking is a straightforward examination of human emotion and its impact on everyday life. Emotion impacts healthcare choices, investments, careers, businesses, and virtually every corner of public policy, because it largely defines the nature of public dialogue. Indeed as the old saying goes, conventional wisdom can be more conventional than wise.
