Keeping the Soul in Christian Higher Education: A History of Roanoke College
by Robert D. BenneMany colleges with historical church ties experience significant tension between the desire to compete in the secularized world of higher education and the desire to remain connected to their religious commitments and communities. In this history of one such school, Roanoke College, Robert Benne not only explores the school's 175-year tradition of educational excellence but also lays bare its complicated and ongoing relationship with its religious heritage. Benne examines the vision of ten of Roanoke's presidents and how those visions played out in college life. As he tells the college's story, Benne points to specific strengths and weaknesses of Roanoke's strategies for keeping the soul in higher education and elaborates what other Christian colleges can learn from Roanoke's long quest.
Kein Thema bei uns: Eine partizipative Forschung zu Rassismuserfahrungen von Kindern und Jugendlichen aus der stationären Jugendhilfe (Forschungsreihe der FH Münster)
by Ellen BogorinskyDie vorliegende partizipative Forschung nimmt Rassismuserfahrungen, deren Thematisierung bzw. Dethematisierung von Kindern und Jugendlichen, die in Wohngruppen der stationären Jugendhilfe im Ruhrgebiet leben, in den Blick. Hierbei wurde die Forschung nicht nur über Kinder und Jugendliche aus der stationären Jugendhilfe hinsichtlich ihrer Rassismuserfahrungen oder für sie durchgeführt, sondern die Forschung wurde bewusst, systematisch konzipiert und kritisch reflektiert mit ihnen zusammen umgesetzt. So beteiligten sich zwei jugendliche Co-Forscher*innen richtungsweisend am gesamten Forschungsprozess. Es wurde dabei deutlich, dass sich Rassismus den Kindern und Jugendlichen in unterschiedlichen, sich gegenseitig bedingenden Erfahrungsdimensionen zeigt und sich auf diese Weise in ihren Lebenswelten entfaltet. Eine Thematisierung ihrer Rassismuserfahrungen stellt für die Kinder und Jugendlichen im stationären Kontext eher eine Seltenheit als eine Selbstverständlichkeit dar.

Kenosis: The Self-Emptying of Christ in Scripture and Theology
by Edited by Paul T. Nimmo and Keith L. JohnsonSeventeen distinguished scholars from the fields of biblical studies, historical theology, and systematic theology engage with the past and present significance of the doctrine of kenosis—Paul&’s extraordinary claim in Philippians 2 that Jesus Christ emptied and humbled himself in obedience on his way to death upon the cross. In the &“Christ-hymn&” of Philippians 2, the apostle Paul makes a startling claim: that Jesus &“emptied himself&” in order to fulfill God&’s will by dying on the cross. The self-emptying of Christ—theologically explored in the doctrine of kenosis—is a locus within Christology and factors significantly into understandings of the Trinity, anthropology, creation, providence, the church, and even ethics. As such, it has been debated and reflected upon for centuries. The present volume draws together some of the finest contemporary scholars from across the ecumenical spectrum to expound the doctrine of kenosis—its biblical roots, its historical elaborations, and its contemporary implications. With original essays from John Barclay, Beverly Roberts Gaventa, David Fergusson, Katherine Sonderegger, Thomas Joseph White, and more, this indispensable resource offers an extensive overview of this essential affirmation of Christian faith.Contributors:John M. G. Barclay, Matthew J. Aragon Bruce, David Fergusson, Beverly Roberts Gaventa, Kevin W. Hector, Keith L. Johnson, Cambria Kaltwasser, Han-luen Kantzer Komline, Grant Macaskill, John A. McGuckin, Paul T. Nimmo, Georg Pfleiderer, Rinse H. Reeling Brouwer, Hanna Reichel, Christoph Schwöbel, Katherine Sonderegger, and Thomas Joseph White.

Kenzo Tange and the Metabolist Movement: Urban Utopias of Modern Japan
by Zhongjie LinAmid Japan’s political turbulence in 1960, seven architects and designers founded Metabolism to propagate radical ideas of urbanism. Kenzō Tange’s Plan for Tokyo 1960 further celebrated urban expansion as organic processes and pushed city design to an unprecedented scale. Metabolists’ visionary schemes of the city gave birth to revolutionary design paradigms, which reinvented the discourse of modern Japanese architecture and propelled it through the years of Economic Miracle to a global prominence. Their utopian concepts, which often envisaged the sea and the sky as human habitats of the future, reflected fundamental issues of cultural transformation and addressed environmental crises of the postindustrial society. This new edition expands Zhongjie Lin’s pathbreaking account on Tange and Metabolism centered at the intersection of urbanism and utopianism. The thorough historical survey, from Metabolism’s inauguration at the 1960 World Design Conference to the apex of the movement at Expo ’70 and further to the recent demolition of Nakagin Capsule Tower, leads to a definition of three Metabolist urban paradigms – megastructure, group form, and ruins – which continue to inspire experiments in architecture, city design, and conservation. Kenzō Tange and the Metabolist Movement is a key book for architectural and urban historians, architects, and all those interested in avant-garde design, Japanese architecture, and contemporary urbanism.

Key Account Management and Planning: The Comprehensive Handbook for Managing Your Company's Most Important Strategic Asset
by Noel CaponThe vastly increased level of competitive intensity faced by corporations and the increased costs of selling have radically changed the nature of the traditional selling process. Key or "strategic" accounts have now become a company's most important asset, in some cases supplying in excess of 80 percent of a firm's revenues. Here, in one powerful volume, key account management expert Noel Capon provides the most comprehensive treatment of key account management and planning yet published. For the first time, Capon introduces his breakthrough four-part "congruence model" of key account management -- a new, thoroughly researched approach to optimally managing your key account portfolio. First, the author shows how to select and conceptualize the key account portfolio; second, how to organize and manage key accounts; third, how to recruit, select, train, retain, and reward key account managers; and fourth, how to formulate and execute strategy and issues of coordination and control. This congruence model serves as a backdrop as Capon takes the reader step-by-step through the vital functions of key account management including identifying key account criteria, considering the threats and opportunities for the key account, and understanding the roles and responsibilities of critical players. Capon backs up his points with extensive research, real-life stories of successes and failures at a variety of companies, and clarifying figures. Special chapters are devoted to partnering with key accounts and in-depth information on global key account management, an increasingly important weapon for staying ahead of the competition. Timely, important, and essential, Key Account Management and Planning is the only reference handbook those with key account responsibilities will ever need.
