Business Negotiations On Web: Experiences At Iimb, T R Madanmohan, Gregory Kersten, Sunil J Noronha

Working Papers

Both policy makers and managers in developing countries are passing through new challenges in many a fields: labor management, international affairs, business relationships and environmental regulations. Government, Judiciary and public are learning new grounds in decisions related to environment, ecology and policy making (Zartman, 1994). Negotiation and bargaining are one of the most common forms of making decisions and resolving conflicts at every organizational level, between countries and small and large organizations and between individuals. It is well known to every culture but the negotiation processes significantly vary among cultures. The old colonialist tradition was that it was up to …

Adowa: Funeral Dance Of Asante As A Vehicle To Express Ethnic Identity, Katherine Moss

African Diaspora ISPs

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the role of Adowa as a vehicle to express ethnic identity in Asante society. First, background information regarding African music is presented, bringing to light the concept of African music as an integrated, 'total art' and highlighting the distinction between traditional and contemporary African music. Traditional music is discussed in terms of its defining features, continuity through enculturation, and imitation of natural patterns of African speech. Based on such conceptions of African music as both 'total' and traditional (as the section heading suggests), Adowa as a socio-music form is introduced and detailed …

Religion, Theology And Film In A Postmodern Age: A Response To John Lyden, Clive Marsh

Journal of Religion & Film

This paper engages in a critical, creative conversation with John Lyden's article in JR & F 1.2. Though affirming the basic tenor of Lyden's approach, this paper presses Lyden to consider that a "commending and critiquing" approach to the task of film interpretation requires greater attention to the ideological basis upon which such a stance is possible. In particular, the theological particularity of discrete religious traditions has to be respected by the scholar of religion. This respect must be shown despite all the attendant institutional complexities which accompany it. The consequences of this need for religious interpreters of film to …

Review Of Native American Verbal Art: Texts And Contexts By William M. Clements, Paul G. Zolbrod

Great Plains Research: A Journal of Natural and Social Sciences (through 2013)

In addressing what its author calls "The Ethnopoetics Movement," this sensible, well-researched volume demonstrates that recording Native American verbal art is not a new enterprise, tracing it back to seventeenth-century Jesuit records and following it through the present-day. Nor has the task of converting tribal discourse to literature ever been easy. Along with the inevitable hazards of translation, cultural barriers intrude, especially in the transfer of oral performance to the silent page.

William Clements lays a clear foundation for a reasonable perspective. Earlier commentators, he writes, "uncritically assumed" that printed records of orally-based tribal material "provide absolutely reliable information about …

Technocentrism In The Law School: Why The Gender And Colour Of Law Remain The Same, Margaret Thornton

Osgoode Hall Law Journal

Despite valiant endeavours by feminist, critical race, and Queer scholars to transform the legal culture, the transformative project has been limited because of the power of corporatism, a phenomenon deemed marginal to the currently fashionable micropolitical sites of critical scholarship. However, liberal, as well as postmodern scholarship, has largely preferred to ignore the ramifications of the "new economy," which includes a marked political shift to the right, the contraction of the public sphere, the privatization of public goods, globalization, and a preoccupation with efficiency, economic rationalism, and profits. I argue that technical reasoning, or "technocentrism," has enabled corporatism to evade …
