Internal and External Aspects of Corporate Governance
An effective system of corporate governance has both internal and external aspects that have to be sufficiently responsive if governance is to succeed.In this book, Ahmed Naciri examines these two core aspects or the latest buzzword in business and management theory. Internal aspects include ownership structure, the board of directors and committees, internal control, risk management, transparency and financial reporting.External aspects can either be market-oriented, or can take the form of credit ranking, and/or social requirements.Due to the original orientation of the Sarbanes/Oxley Law, concentrating solely on financial disclosure and given its decisive and tremendous influence on all other similar corporate governance legislations all over the world, most writings on corporate governance have dealt with solely internal corporate governance mechanisms.This book aim is to fill up the gap by using a systemic approach and giving a global picture of the corporate governance theoretical foundations, mainly by putting the emphasis on its double dimension: internal and external.

Caring Democracy : Markets, Equality, and Justice
A rethinking of American democracy that puts caring responsibilities at the centerAmericans now face a caring deficit: there are simply too many demands on people’s time for us to care adequately for our children, elderly people, and ourselves.At the same time, political involvement in the United States is at an all-time low, and although political life should help us to care better, people see caring as unsupported by public life and deem the concerns of politics as remote from their lives.Caring Democracy argues that we need to rethink American democracy, as well as our fundamental values and commitments, from a caring perspective.What it means to be a citizen is to be someone who takes up the challenge: how should we best allocate care responsibilities in society?Joan Tronto argues that we need to look again at how gender, race, class, and market forces misallocate caring responsibilities and think about freedom and equality from the standpoint of making caring more just.The idea that production and economic life are the most important political and human concerns ignores the reality that caring, for ourselves and others, should be the highest value that shapes how we view the economy, politics, and institutions such as schools and the family.Care is at the center of our human lives, but Tronto argues it is currently too far removed from the concerns of politics.Caring Democracy traces the reasons for this disconnection and argues for the need to make care, not economics, the central concern of democratic political life.

The Gardener of Governance : A Call to Action for Effective Internal Auditing
This book builds on the popular GARDENER OF GOVERNANCE article, enjoying amazing traction in the professional community globally, and translated into 25+ languages.The Lenz-Jeppesen (2022) thought-piece introduced the 5 “Ps” as paths for the betterment of internal auditing: People, Public, Performance (Prosperity), Purpose (Profession), and Planet.These main fields of action and focus for the internal audit profession may determine the future role of internal auditing, its legitimacy, relevance, and significance.The book aims to provide practical guidance for performing impactful internal audit assignments.Some readers will no doubt view the authors as unorthodox, and the book may be a stretch for the purist, insisting on adherence to traditional rules. It is pleasing to see that the new Global Internal Audit Standards advocate a pragmatic approach, which should further stimulate internal audit functions moving into uncharted territory that may require from them to become more resourceful in their approach as advocated for by the authors.This book is an inspiration and encouragement for all internal auditors who want to do better and aiming higher, particularly the forthcoming generation of internal auditors who are open-minded and who may sometimes doubt themselves because of opposition or insecurity.We believe that internal auditors who absorb the knowledge and make it their own will benefit from this book on their career trajectory. This easy read is relatable, engaging, and convincing to support internal auditors globally when seeking to widen their repertoire on their journey to become modern and effective internal auditors.This book is relevant and will be insightful to internal auditors, students and lecturers, as well as other stakeholders including senior and executive managers and board members.With Rainer’s rich practical insights also building on his series of publications and Barrie’s hands-on advice benefitting from 30 years of entrepreneurial experience, the authors created an interesting blend of creative authoring that challenges the status quo and advising emerging internal auditors on becoming more impactful and effective. We’re dropping the pebble in the pond. Let’s see how far the ripples spread and to what effect.

This phrase emphasizes the need to address systemic injustices and inequalities in order to achieve true equality. It implies that simply treating everyone the same does not necessarily address the underlying issues of discrimination and oppression. Instead, it calls for prioritizing justice in order to create a more equitable society for all.

Play and Social Justice : Equity, Advocacy, and Opportunity
The importance of play for healthy development is undeniable.Aspects of play have been linked to the development of social skills, health and fitness, motivation, curiosity, innovation, imagination, and problem solving.Both theory and research suggest that play of various types is critical for healthy development and that playfulness is an important quality across the life span.However, opportunities to play and quality of play facilities in schools, after-school programs, childcare centers, community parks, and museums are not equitable by race, socio-economic status, and ability. And racial profiling, immigrant status, illness, and incarceration interfere with child’s play.The first section of the book defines play and social justice and describes disparities in play opportunities in childcare, schools, and communities as well as inequities in how play is interpreted.The next section describes pre-school, elementary, high school, and university programs that use play to liberate, teach, and build community as well as after-school, hospital, and community programs that help to level the playing field of opportunity.The final part of the book discusses ways to ameliorate inequities through research and advocacy.Four research methods are described that are useful for conducting studies on the amount of play children experience, attitudes toward play, and the effect of play on other variables.Finally, a child, a parent, and a teacher describe ways they tried to obtain more recess, using various methods of advocacy.The appendix provides resources indispensable for those convinced that play for all is indeed a social justice issue worthy of advocacy.

G. A. Cohen : Liberty, Justice and Equality
G. A. Cohen was one of the towering political philosophers of the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries.His intellectual career was unusually wide-ranging, and he was celebrated internationally not only for his penetrating ideas about liberty, justice and equality, but also for his method, a highly original and influential combination of analytical philosophy and Marxism. Christine Sypnowich guides readers through the rich body of Cohen’s work.By identifying five paradoxes in his thought, she explores the origins of his interest in analytical philosophy, his engagement with the ideas of right-wing libertarianism, his critique of John Rawls’s work, his late-career turn to conservatism, and the tension between his preoccupation with individual responsibility and the idea of a socialist ethos.Sypnowich acknowledges the strengths of Cohen’s positions as well as their tensions and flaws, and presents him as a thinker of startling insight. This compelling introduction is a go-to resource for students and scholars of modern political philosophy.
