A topic of interest in teaching businesscourses is incorporating the practical aspect of the subject matter intoteaching as this helps to bridge theory and real-world practice. Research indicates that students gain a deeperunderstanding of material when theory is contextualized through real-lifepractical examples. However, given thetraditional career-path of academics in finance in countries such as SouthAfrica, a significant proportion of finance lecturers have little or norelevant practical experience in the subject matter. In this paper, we discuss a strategyimplemented in finance courses at sophomore and senior levels in order to linktheory and practice. Guest speakers were invited from industry to contextualize the topics for the students. Students perceptions on the benefit they derived from the speakers were deduced from statistical analyses of student evaluations. The results indicate that the experience waspositive and aided in their understanding of the subject.

<p>The main aim of the article is to present the considerations concerning the issue of introducing mandatory mediation into the Polish legal system within the scope of business lawsuits as well as some other kinds of civil disputes with respect to determining their suitability for mediation and the parties’ concerns regarding the use of mediation. The choice of the subject matter and the aim of these considerations have been mainly inspired by the author’s practical experience of working as a mediator in civil disputes (including business cases) and the relevant statistics concerning mediation proceedings held within the Business Mediation Center (BMC) at the District Chamber of Legal Advisers in Olsztyn. Introducing an obligation to mediate in selected types of disputes into the Polish social-legal system following an appropriate legislative and organizational preparation should, in principle, be considered beneficial as it might lead to popularizing mediation and making the most of its potential and advantages. Furthermore, expanding the citizens’ access to the broadly understood system of justice in its in- and out-of-court formula may result in reducing a backlog of cases in courts of justice and, in consequence, strengthening the idea of diversification in the justice system.</p>

The Way

This article introduces the idea of contextual shift for refining understanding of use and meaning of the concept of violence. Much theoretical work on violence today begins from the recognition that ‘violence’ is inextricably entangled with, and used to contest, the values that form the subject-matter of politics. Making sure that the concept of violence remains responsive to its real-world instances therefore requires tracing the way it is strategically appropriated and used by political actors. This article argues that a focus on contextual shift provides greater analytical purchase on these uses by showing how structural transformations open up new opportunities for using the concept of violence as actors seek to navigate contradictory commitments. The explanatory value of contextual shift is presented through an account of strategic appropriations of ‘violence’ by revolutionary actors during the Long 1960s, with particular attention paid to the uses made by Frantz Fanon and Stokely Carmichael.

The Devil

In the last four years, the number of small self-administered pension schemes has increased from a few dozen to a figure that, if it has not already done so, must shortly pass the 10,000 mark and few major Life Offices, Consulting Actuaries or Pensions Consultants are now without such a weapon in their armoury. Considerable practical experience in the administration of these arrangements has been gained, often somewhat traumatically, over this period by actuaries and other practitioners and, with many schemes having recently had, or just coming up to, their first triennial actuarial report, it seemed a sensible time to consolidate this experience and to highlight some of the more contentious areas for discussion. Certain statements in the paper are based on my understanding of current Inland Revenue practice which is not necessarily consistent either with time or between different examiners. Finally, although the subject matter of the paper applies equally to fully self-administered schemes and to Life Office 'hybrid' schemes, I wish to apologize for any unintentional bias towards the latter that may have crept in. Better the devil you know, I suppose!

Methodological Strategy

In this paper, I argue that the study of crowds provides important lessons for social psychology in four key areas. First, it reveals the political influences which shaped and continue to shape the questions we ask and the answers we provide. Second, it demonstrates the importance of a methodological strategy which attends to real-world phenomena and the ability of theory to make sense of them. Third, it generates new theoretical insights and conceptual paradigms which have relevance to social psychology in general. Fourth, it provides new insights into the way that the social relations which constitute everyday social reality are created, consolidated, and changed. In sum, I suggest that the crowd is uniquely fertile ground in which to investigate the subject matter of social psychology.

The Subject

THE germ of that which follows came into being many years ago in the days of my youth as a university instructor and assistant professor. It was generated by the then quite outspoken attitude of colleagues in the “exact sciences”; the sciences of which the subject-matter can be exactly weighed and measured and the force of its movements mathematically demonstrated. They assured us that the study of languages and literature had little or nothing scientific about it because: “It had no domain of concrete fact in which to work.” Ergo, the scientific spirit was theirs by a stroke of “efficacious grace” as it were. Ours was at best only a kind of “sufficient grace,” pleasant and even necessary to have, but which could, by no means ensure a reception among the elected.

Rigorous Method

After many years of clinical practice, research and the teaching of projective tests, Shentoub and her colleagues (Debray, Brelet, Chabert & al.) put forward an original and rigorous method of analysis and interpretation of the TAT protocols in terms of psychoanalysis and clinical psychopathology. They developed the TAT process theory in order to understand how the subject builds a narrative. Our article will emphasize the source of the analytical approach developed by V. Shentoub in the 1950s to current research; the necessity of marking the boundary between the manifest and latent content in the cards; the procedure for analyzing the narrative, supported by an analysis sheet for understanding the stories' structure and identifying the defense mechanisms; and how developing hypotheses about how the mental functions are organized, as well as their potential psychopathological characteristics; and the formulation of a diagnosis in psychodynamic terms. In conjunction with the analysis and interpretation of the Rorschach test, this approach allows us to develop an overview of the subject's mental functioning, taking into account both the psychopathological elements that may threaten the subject and the potential for a therapeutic process. We will illustrate this by comparing neurotic, borderline, and psychotic personalities.

An outline has been presented in historical fashion of the steps devised to organize the central core of medical information allowing the subject matter, the patient, to define the nature and the progression of the diseases from which he suffers, with and without therapy; and approaches have been made to organize this information in such fashion as to align the definitions in orderly fashion to teach both diagnostic strategy and the content of the diseases by programmed instruction.

This article is aimed to examine the extent of the application of Islamic legal objectives by Sheikh Abdullah bn Fudi in his rejoinder against one of their contemporary scholars who accused them of being over-liberal about the religion. He claimed that there has been a careless intermingling of men and women in the preaching and counselling gathering they used to hold, under the leadership of Sheikh Uthman bn Fudi (the Islamic reformer of the nineteenth century in Nigeria and West Africa). Thus, in this study, the researchers seek to answer the following interrogations: who was Abdullah bn Fudi? who was their critic? what was the subject matter of the criticism? How did the rebutter get equipped with some guidelines of higher objectives of Sharĩʻah in his rejoinder to the critic? To this end, this study had tackled the questions afore-stated by using inductive, descriptive and analytical methods to identify the personalities involved, define and analyze some concepts and matters considered as the hub of the study.
