The concept of supranational European citizenship has become one of the core concepts of the EU?s unique polity. It has, however, been one of the most difficult to actualise. This book examines the challenges of, and barriers to, exercising full citizenship rights for European citizens and considers how they might best be overcome. Drawing on cutting-edge research from interdisciplinary areas of study, this book examines the key issues surrounding EU citizenship. Reflecting on the diversity of European societies, it identifies, analyses and compares the many barriers that citizens face to fully exercising their rights. With chapters examining key issues from migration to democratic governance and social rights, Moving Beyond Barriers critically analyzes concepts of citizenship and the way that EU citizenship is politically, legally, economically and socially institutionalised, and elaborates alternatives to the current paths of realising EU citizenship. Citizenship issues feature prominently in the European policy-making agenda and the insights offered by this book will be of benefit to those with an interest in EU law, social and public policy and administration. Policy-makers and practitioners will also benefit from the reflections on citizenship and the practical guidance on how to move beyond current issues regarding EU citizenship.

Twenty-five years after the introduction of European citizenship, it seems as though the EU has overreached itself. In its current state the EU provokes much negative political reaction among its citizens. Conversely, interest in European issues has increased during the crisis, pro-European social movements have emerged and new debates on reforms of the Union?s architecture are flaring up. Through updated and integrated multidisciplinary research this book reconsiders the contradictions and constraints, as well as the promises and prospects, for the future of EU citizenship. With chapters from leading researchers in the field, Reconsidering EU Citizenship is an innovative contribution to the lively debate on European and transnational citizenship. Bringing together policy research and reflections from political theory, this book offers an up-to-date critique of the current state of EU citizenship as well as new insights for its future. As citizenship rights issues become more prominent on the EU policy-making agenda, Reconsidering EU Citizenship will be an invaluable resource to students of EU policy as well as policy-makers and practitioners in the field.

The book investigates the aesthetic theology embedded in the Franciscan artistic tradition. The novelty of the approach is in applying concepts gleaned from Franciscan textual sources to create a deeper understanding of how art in all its sensual forms was foundational to the Franciscan milieu. Chapters range from studies of statements about aesthetics and the arts in theological textual sources to examples of visual, auditory, and tactile arts communicating theological ideas found in texts. The essays cover not only European art and textual sources, but also Franciscan influences in the Americas found in both texts and artifacts.

"GETTING THE RIGHT PEOPLE, IN THE RIGHT PLACE, AT THE RIGHT TIME, WITH THE RIGHT MOTIVATION."

Tom Casey and his collaborators want ALL CEOs to appreciate the imminent "Perfect Storm" of human capital change. As CEOs navigate the unchartered waters of globalization, declining engagement, and shifting demographics, they are seeing a dramatic imbalance between talent needs and talent availability. As well, CEOs are confronted with the difference in work styles and priorities of four generations of employees and need to reconcile their distinct aspirations to ensure maximum productivity. "Talent Readiness" addresses the top ten human capital challenges of the new decade, and provides immediate solutions to harness the unique skills and attitudes of the new labor market.

A beautifully illustrated volume which explores one of the central themes of Christian Art: Christ as the Man of Sorrows, "Passion in Venice: Crivelli to Tintoretto and Veronese" draws on works by some of the of the greatest names in Venetian painting including Veronese, Tintoretto, Crivelli, Giambono and the Bassano family. It creates a new and illuminating context for these great masters by considering their work alongside contemporary works in other media, and from other parts of Western Europe, including Tuscany, France, Spain, Germany and the Netherlands.
An essay by Catherine Puglisi and William Barcham explores the origins of the image of Christ as Man of Sorrows and its emergence as a distinct and central devotional image in the religious life of Venice from about 1300. The authors address the questions of who was the Man of Sorrows and why the figure grew significantly in Venice during the late Middle Ages and the early Renaissance. Xavier Seubert's essay focuses on the appeal of the Man of Sorrows as an image expressing anguish, which encourages the viewer to identify with suffering, and offers hope for deliverance and redemption.
The main catalogue section presents illuminated manuscripts, paintings, sculptures, prints, drawings and liturgical objects from major American and European collections, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, the National Gallery of Canada, the J Paul Getty Center and the National Gallery, London, almost none of which have been linked before through the study of a common artistic theme.

Wir leben in einer Welt, in der die verschiedenen Kulturen und Religionen zunehmend eine gemeinsame Antwort auf die ethischen Fragen unseres Zusammenlebens finden mussen. Dieser Band leistet deshalb zweierlei: Einerseits informiert er uber die ubergreifenden ethischen Traditionen und Paradigmen in den Kulturregionen und in den grosseren und kleineren Religionsgemeinschaften dieser Welt. Andererseits versucht er, die Grundlagen bereitzustellen, die eine volkerubergreifende Verstandigung uber die Grundfragen der Moral ermoglichen konnen. Wer uber den Tellerrand eines ausschliesslich im Westen entwickelten Diskurses hinausblicken und den interkulturellen Dialog fruchtbar fuhren will, findet mit diesem Band das unentbehrliche Hilfsmittel."

Die Wirksamkeit Frederick Winslow Taylors bedeutet einen Markstein in der industriellen Entwicklung der Vereinigten Staaten. Taylor ist der erste Mann der Praxis gewesen, der dort die Aufgaben der Fabrikorganisation in wissenschaftlicher Weise in Angriff genommen hat. Durch die Eigenart des wirtschaftlichen Lebens in der neuen Welt ist das Entstehen mustergiiltiger Fabrikorganisationen lange hintan gehalten worden. Der unerschop Iich scheinende Reichtum des Landes hat von Anfang an eine raubbauartige Ausniitzung der Bodenschatze begiinstigt. Es ist erklarlich, daB die aus solchen Gewohnheiten ent standene Auffassung von der zweckmaBigsten Form geschaftlicher Tatigkeit auch in gewerblichen Unternehmungen Geltung erlangte und sie lange Zeit bewahrte. So ist es gekommep, daB das Land bei ungewohnlicher Ertragsfahigkeit sich durch einen ungewohnlich ge ringen Wirkungsgrad der industriellen Tatigkeit auszeichnet: das Wert verhaltnis des notigen zu dem wirklich aufgewendeten Betriebskapital ist klein, und es ist jetzt noch die Regel, daB dort Gewinne viel mehr durch kaufmannische Wagnisse als durch griindliche Ausniitzung der Betriebsmittel erzielt werden. Das Abnehmen der Rohstoffe zwingt Amerika mehr und mehr dazu, mit den Gaben der Natur sparsamer umzugehen; ebenso erheischt der steigende Wettbewerb in allen Unternehmungen gebieterisch eine Ver ringerung der Selbstkosten."
