Good News for Common Goods : Multicultural Evangelicalism and Ethical Democracy in America
What is the relationship between evangelical Christianity and democracy in America?In Good News for Common Goods, sociologist Wes Markofski explores how multicultural evangelicals across the United States are addressing race, poverty, inequality, politics, and religious and cultural difference in America's increasingly plural and polarized public arena.Based on extensive original research on multicultural evangelicals active in faith-based community organizing, community development, political advocacy, and public service organizations across the country-including over 90 in-depth interviews with racially diverse evangelical and non-evangelical activists, community leaders, and neighborhood residents-Markofski shows how the varieties of public religion practiced by evangelical Christians are not always bad news for non-evangelicals, people of color, and those advancing ethical democracy in the United States. Markofski argues that multicultural evangelicals can and do work with others across race, class, religious, and political lines to achieve common good solutions to public problems, and that they can do so without abandoning their own distinctive convictions and identities or demanding that others do so.Just as ethical democracy calls for a more reflexive evangelicalism, it also calls for a more reflexive secularism and progressivism.

Economics for the Common Good
From Nobel Prize-winning economist Jean Tirole, a bold new agenda for the role of economics in society When Jean Tirole won the 2014 Nobel Prize in Economics, he suddenly found himself being stopped in the street by complete strangers and asked to comment on issues of the day, no matter how distant from his own areas of research.His transformation from academic economist to public intellectual prompted him to reflect further on the role economists and their discipline play in society.The result is Economics for the Common Good, a passionate manifesto for a world in which economics, far from being a "dismal science," is a positive force for the common good. Economists are rewarded for writing technical papers in scholarly journals, not joining in public debates.But Tirole says we urgently need economists to engage with the many challenges facing society, helping to identify our key objectives and the tools needed to meet them. To show how economics can help us realize the common good, Tirole shares his insights on a broad array of questions affecting our everyday lives and the future of our society, including global warming, unemployment, the post-2008 global financial order, the Euro crisis, the digital revolution, innovation, and the proper balance between the free market and regulation. Providing a rich account of how economics can benefit everyone, Economics for the Common Good sets a new agenda for the role of economics in society.

The Common Good Heavyweight LP
The lost 2001 album The Common Good followed quickly on the heels of the release of You Are The Healer. It was part produced by John Leckie and features an allstar cast of performances from drum maestro Steve White, Keyboard legend Mick Talbot, alongside a world class complement of Marco Nelson, Nicola BrightThomas and of course, Paul Weller. Originally released on a limited run of vinyl and CD, it then vanished without a trace for two decades, save for a couple of bootlegs that robbed him of any royalties, and a handful of fans refusing to let it die online. Now it has finally been restored to glory in 24 bit for the first time, for a worldwide release. It is a record that is slightly more electric than the others with standout tracks such as Large As Life, A Saint Coming Home and Finger of Rain perhaps owing something to Matts time with Paul Weller and Oasis, but there are still those haunting acoustic moments that define him, such as Evensong, and The Common Good.The album was remastered in 2020 from the original tapes by Russ HepworthSawyer and then prepared for vinyl by Jason Mitchell.One of this countrys best kept secrets The Huffington Post34A mellow folksoul gem, shamefully overlooked... there039s clearly a sharp, undervalued talent at work.34 Mojo 45

Business, Globalization and the Common Good
Globalization and information technology are driving the world into a new era.Is it the responsibility of business to pursue the common good – and more precisely, to participate in the construction of the global common good?This book brings together contributions from various disciplines, written by scholars who are at the forefront of this debate.It provides multiple insights into a tripartite relationship: business, globalization and the common good.It helps explain why the business sphere will probably not be in a position to ignore the common good much longer, and why this latter concept, widely ignored in today’s management realm, is likely to become part of tomorrow’s corporate policies and practices in the global context.Finally, this work opens up a plethora of avenues for future research, calling for the development of transdisciplinary approaches and for the elaboration of a research program embracing theoretical, empirical and spiritual perspectives to tackle this complex issue.

The Person and the Common Good
The Person and the Common Good, originally published in 1947, presents Jacques Maritain's clearest and most sustained treatment of the person.He asks whether the person is simply the self and nothing more.After more than half a century, Maritain's question still has great validity, given the current inordinate preoccupation with individualism. Presenting with moving insight the relations between man, as a person and as an individual, and the society of which he is a part, Maritain's treatment of a lasting topic speaks to this generation as well as those to come. He makes clear the personalism rooted in the doctrine of St.Thomas and separates the social philosophy centered in the dignity of the human person from every social philosophy centered in the primacy of the individual and the private good.

For a Politics of the Common Good
This volume of conversations between Alain Badiou and Peter Engelmann focuses on the concrete political situation in the world of today.Here the validity and applicability of Badiou’s ideas are tested in relation to the great social and political problems of our time, including terrorism, migration, the surge in support for nationalist and populist parties and the growing gap between rich and poor.Badiou argues that in the age of today’s globalized capitalism, with its division of labour on a global scale and the worldwide interconnection of information through the Internet, there are no longer any national solutions. Because nations and states lose meaning in favour of transnational corporations in globalized capitalism, resistance to capitalism must by definition be global too.Only a politics that defines itself as a politics for all and does not act in the interests of one particular group – whether a nation, religion or community of shared values – can lead the world out of the current crisis of globalized capitalism.
