The Farmerfield Mission

A Christian Community in South Africa, 1838-2008

By: Fiona Vernal

In The Famerfield Mission, Fiona Vernal recounts the history of an African Christian community on South Africa's troubled Eastern Cape frontier. Forged in the secular world of war, violence, and colonial dispossession and subjected to grand evangelical aspirations and social engineering, Farmerfield's heterogeneous mix of former slaves and displaced Africans from polities beyond the borders of the Cape Colony entered the powerful ideological arena of anti-slavery humanitarianism and evangelicalism. As a farm, an African residential site amid a white community, and a Christian mission on a violent frontier, Farmerfield was at once a space, a place, and an idea that Africans, missionaries, whites, and colonial authorities competed to mold according to their own visions. Founded in 1838 and destroyed by the apartheid government in 1962, Farmerfield's residents struggled over the meaning and content of a civilized, Christianized lifestyle, deploying a range of tactics from negotiation and dissimulation to deference and defiance. In the process, they vernacularized Christianity, endured the ravages of colonialism and apartheid, used their historical connections to the Methodist Church and South Africa's land reform legislation to regain land, and launched the Farmerfield experiment anew, amid new debates about the meaning of post-apartheid land access and citizenship. Farmerfield's propitious rise, protracted, frustrating decline and fledgling reincarnation reflect epochal chapters in South Africa's colonial, apartheid, and post-apartheid history as Africans attempted to define the terms of their cultural autonomy and economic independence.

Globalization and Regulatory Character

Regulatory Reform after the Kader Toy Factory Fire

By: Fiona Haines

Originally published in 2005. Uniting critical debates on globalization with those on regulation, this book provides an innovative account of the fate of safety regulation in the face of global pressures. The author addresses the key question of whether globalization is making safety standards better or worse. She analyzes the diverse strands of globalization that threaten safety standards and examines the measures that hold potential for beneficial change. Regulatory character, a theoretical model that captures local economic, political and cultural influence developed in the work, sheds light on how and why regulation and safety standards do or do not change in the face of a crisis. The theoretical work is grounded and illuminated by research on the Thai government's response to the Kader fire, set in the rapidly industrializing context of Southeast Asia. Theoretically rigorous and empirically rich, the book has critical contemporary social relevance. It demonstrates a diverse theoretical heritage (embracing Weber, Douglas and Christopher Hood amongst others) that critically and productively engages with research and policy making to raise safety standards.

Organizational Behaviour and Work

A Critical Introduction

By: Fiona M. Wilson

A critical yet accessible introduction to organisational behaviour and work, this book will help you understand the complexities of organisational life and evaluate modern business practices. Classic organisational behaviour topics such as team-working, motivation, and change are complemented by core critical approaches such as power and control, organisational misbehaviour, and health and well-being through a clear three-part structure. Students are encouraged to look beyond a descriptive approach and truly engage with the content. Examples and 'Stop and Think' boxes placed throughout chapters, as well as end-of-chapter case studies with accompanying questions, provide the opportunity for this engagement and show how each chapter's theoretical coverage applies in real-life business situations.

Mein Jahr in Benin. Life is a Story - story.one

By: Fiona Maria Weber

Dieses Buch erzählt aus meinem Jahr in Benin. Von 2018 bis 2019 leistete ich dort mit meiner Mitfreiwilligen Nadja einen entwicklungspolitischen Freiwilligendienst ab. Ich lernte in diesem Jahr eine Menge über eine ganz andere Kultur, aber auch über mich selbst. Gemeinsam mit Nadja verbrachte ich in diesem zauberhaften Land eine unglaubliche Zeit über die ich nur zu gerne, aber mittlerweile leider viel zu selten berichte. Desweiteren handelt es sich bei dem Buch um eine Zusammenfassung meiner Blogeinträge für Verwandte und Freunde. Ich hoffe DIR gefallen sie ebenso gut wie ihnen!

Und warum kann sie Jens Welt plötzlich Farbe einhauchen? *** Dieses Buch ist echt. Liebe. Freundschaft. Schmerz. Depressionen. Panikattacken. Angst. Hoffnung. Träume. Mädchen sein. Erwachsen werden.
