Berkaca pengalaman Orde Baru dan Reformasi yang terjadi disequilibrium antara aspek perkembangan dan konflik;  maka tulisan ini bermaksud menawarkan model empiris manajemen multibudaya. Intinya model ini akan mengarahkan proses refleksi kritis budaya menuju pada upaya peningkatan semangat multikulturalisme secara optimal. Pertimbangan sifat empiris dalam model ini adalah karena melalui tulisan ini diharapkan akan muncul banyak riset tentang manajemen multibudaya di Indonesia. Antara sub budaya di negara kita tidak perlu dipertentangkan; tetapi perlu dibangun komitmen mengoptimumkan multibudaya menjadi kekuatan besar untuk mencapai Bangunan Indonesia Baru. Komitmen bukan hanya sebatas semangat tetapi hendaknya menjadi gerakan nasional efektif. Seperti pada  era pemimpin saat kini yang makin menuntut tindakan nyata bukan hanya slogan. Kunci sukses dari model ini yang merupakan pemikiran Soerjanto Poespowardojo ternyata terletak pada keseimbangan (equilibrium) antara maksimisasi aspek perkembangan (kemajuan) dan minimisasi  aspek konflik. Reflecting on the situation during New Order and the Era of Reformation where disequilibrium between aspects of development and conflict occurred, this paper offers an empirical model of multicultural management. In short, this model directs the process of cultural critical reflection towards an effort to optimally encourage the spirit of multiculturalism. The decision regarding the empirical nature of this model was made because through this paper, it is hoped that this will lead to further research about multicultural management in Indonesia. There is no need for any conflict between the many subcultures of Indonesia; however, there is a need for a commitment to optimize multiculturalism as a major force to achieve the Bangunan Indonesia Baru. Commitment is not mere enthusiasm, but it can serve as an effective national movement as seen in modern leadership today that demand concrete action. The key to success of this model, which is Soerjanto Poespowardojo's idea, lies in the equilibrium between the maximization of developmental aspect (progress) and the minimization of conflict aspect.

- In Spain the recognition of the "repressed memories" has earned a remarkable public presence since the '90s, similarly to what occurred in most of the western world. In the Spanish case the attention focused on the "memory of the defeated" in the Civil War, which had been systematically silenced during the almost forty years of dictatorship and, to a large extent, during the following two decades too. In parallel with that, in the last quarter of the century there has been an outstanding accumulation of historical knowledge on the many and complementary forms of repression. This has demonstrated the magnitude of physic violence - deaths, concentration camps, imprisonment, work exploitation - as well as legal violence - purging, fines, etc. Francoist repression was much stronger than the one practised by other New Order fascist regimes during peace time. These historical studies have also provided concrete background for movements which for many years have asked for re-cognition from the democratic institutions of victims of Francoism. Key words: Spanish Civil War, Francoist repression, Spanish Civil War historical studies, history and memory, memory public policies, physic and legal violence in Spanish Civil War.

The text is based on the scientific research carried out by the author during the many years that she has tried to follow the evolution of mental health at an international level, in Portugal and in the Autonomous Region of Madeira. It is based on the knowledge deepened through critical reflection carried out throughout the training and professional processes in which it has participated. The performance as a professor at the University of Madeira-Health Higher School, the real experience as a provider of specialized nursing care in mental and psychiatric health to population groups living in different communities, the various intervention contexts in which mental healthcare is available, the different circumstances of health and illness observed in people who experience transactional and adaptive processes at various stages of the life cycle are real contributions that have been constituted as a source of essential material for a critical and constructive look at one of the great challenges that health and mental health services and their professionals face in today's societies.

This chapter focuses on the mindset to innovate in a world overcrowded by ideas. Innovation of solutions typically is built on the art of ideation. The more ideas are generated, the better the chance to find a good one. In a overcrowded world, the search for meaningful innovation instead requires the art of criticism. In fact, since the process starts from the inside, we need to be sure that what comes from us is meaningful to other people. We need to challenge our old assumptions; to question how we make sense of the environment; to seriously take in new perspectives. Taking a critical stance does not imply being negative but going deeper, searching for the contrasts, creating tensions, discussing differences, reshuffling things to find a new order. Without a critical reflection on what we believe in and what we search for, we would interpret new insights with old lenses. We would see only what we wanted to see. This principle is a significant departure from the fundaments of creative problem solving. Recent innovation studies have described criticism as being marginal or even deleterious. They are not wrong. They just address a different kind of innovation: the search for novel solutions. But when it comes to breakthrough meaningful directions, these principles are simply turned upside down.

ABSTRACT: Today, humans are always faced with the complexity of the acute world situation. This situation is nothing but an increasingly worsening environmental crisis. This emergency situation is inseparable from the increasingly exalted anthropocentric ego. The assumption that eliminates intrinsic value to other ecosystems and the wrong way of life leads to the separation of relations between humans and the surrounding reality.The interdependent context between all ecosystems is degraded due to the wrong attitude of life from humans. The loss of the relationship brought a variety of environmental damage which caused the destruction of human existence itself. Poverty, hunger, war, global warming, floods and drought are a few of the critical phenomena of nature. For these increasingly emergency natural phenomena, this thesis is written as a critical reflection for humans to re-examine their nature as religious, social and ecological creatures as well as concrete action that must be done to reconstruct relations (reconciliation) with nature, with the surrounding environment and especially reconciliation with his own life through ecological metanoia and a new lifestyle.  KEYWORDS: relation, antrophosentrism ego, ecological exigent, multidimensional perspective, awareness, reconciliation, repentance and new lifestyle.

This chapter recognises that, in the journalism and rhetoric of the new creed, there has not been a single German verbal expression that has not belied its purported content. Among the many neologisms inspired by the upheaval, this is already indicated by “Nazi,” the concept on which a revelation of the World Spirit is supposedly based, together with other phrases that could never have been conceived or formulated before the onset of the new order. What is exceptional, however, is the ability to continue in this creative spirit with true-to-type neologisms that adapt language to the needs of the regime's profound duplicity and accentuate its sanctimonious bent, the tendency to draw a veil over ignominious actions. Virtually every communiqué adds further examples of violence disguised as the norm, as when forcible entry into someone's home is described as “rehabilitation.” Or when failure is presented as imminent success and someone stretches the facts by reporting that a rival militia has been “deconstructed.”

This article sets out to contribute conceptual clarity to the growing recognition of the modern and futural dynamic behind fascist cultural projects by focusing on projects for architectural renewal under the Third Reich. It starts by reviewing the gradual recognition of the futural temporality of the regime’s culture. It then introduces the concept ‘rooted modernism’ and argues for its application not only to the vernacular idioms of some of the Reich’s new buildings, but also to the International Style and machine aesthetic deployed in many Nazi technological and industrial buildings. The article’s main focus is on the extensive use made in the new civic and public architecture under Nazism (and Fascism) of ‘stripped classicism’. This was a form of neo-classicism widely encountered in both democratic and authoritarian states throughout the inter-war period, and which can be understood as an alternative strand of architectural modernism co-existing with more overtly avant-garde experiments in reshaping the built environment. The case is then made for applying a new conceptual framework for evaluating the relationship to modernity and modernism of architectural projects, not just in fascist cultural production, but that of the many authoritarian right-wing regimes of the period which claimed to embrace the national past while striving for a dynamic, heroic future. This opens up the possibility for historians to engage with the complex cultural entanglements and histoires croisées of revolutionary with modernizing conservative states in the ‘fascist era’.

Abstract In this article I address the question of what Martti Koskenniemi refers to in his EJIL Foreword as Hugo Grotius’ legal imagination – the type of values he was trying to convey and the strategies he meant to pursue while constructing his idea of an international legal order. As a matter of fact, focusing on such an apparently narrow aspect is not just relevant to those with a historical interest in Grotius. It also tells us something about the inveterate relationship between international law and historiographic practices. What I want to suggest here is that the history of international law is not just an a posteriori critical reflection on the international legal order – a subgenre for lovers of intellectual escapism in search of a distraction from the many problems of the contemporary world – but, rather, that one of the many successful projects of international law was (and still is) the ambition to order the world through histories.

AbstractThis paper documents a research journey that was initially undertaken to escape the feelings of tension and dissatisfaction that I had experienced as a secondary school teacher. The paper identifies the many influences that have guided the course of my continuing research journey. Philosophically, my research has taken me from viewing the world and my place in it from a narrow and authoritarian Western perspective through to a more inclusive and more democratic non-Western perspective. This shift in perspective initially resulted in changes to my educational theory and practice as manifested in the evolution of an environmental education program in a Melbourne secondary school. More recently my research perspective has again shifted, enabling me to pursue an opportunity to not only teach in, but more importantly also to learn in, a different cultural context. In both Melbourne and Manila, the transformations have come about by sharing ‘new’ ways of seeing and doing.

This chapter analyzes the Irish national movement. It discusses the most striking feature: the clockwork-like actions of republican groups that, while challengers, escalated violence, shunned elections, and denounced negotiated compromise; but after they became the leader or hegemon of the movement (or movement wing), shunned violence, participated in elections, and negotiated compromises. Despite their intense criticism of each other, this is the story of Cumann na nGaedheal (later Fine Gael), Fianna Fáil, the , Official Irish Republican Army/Official Sinn Féin, and the Provisional IRA/Sinn Féin over the course of the twentieth century. In every case in which abstentionism (the refusal to take seats in the government) was ended, what changed was not what the group ideologically said had to change but, rather, the movement structure and that the group would be guaranteed a leading role in the new order.

This paper considers the problems that unconscious racial bias and social sin more broadly pose for moral theology’s concepts of the erroneous conscience and ignorance. It argues that systemic racism prompts us to reimagine the erroneous conscience and individual culpability for ignorance. I argue that the erroneous conscience is useful in protecting human dignity in the face of error and in acknowledging the many ways we err but also problematic because it equates error with concrete action and conscious decisions and does not account for responsibility for social sin. This paper asserts that people of privilege and white persons cannot be morally innocent, but the erroneous conscience as it has been understood in the theological tradition often implies that innocence is the goal of the moral life and only holds us accountable for conscious moral actions.
