When embracing the profound wisdom of Taoism and integrating responsible management education into the fabric of our educational systems, we can pave the way for a sustainable, inclusive, and prosperous world for all. This volume is part of a two-volume series, together providing a comprehensive exploration of responsible management, Taoism, and their transformative potential in overcoming challenges in the VUCA era.

In this thought-provoking Volume One of the series, Managing Responsibly for Sustainable Business Development in the VUCA World, We embark on a transformative journey towards sustainable and excellent management practices. As the world grapples with the complexities and uncertainties of the VUCA (volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous) era, it has become imperative to explore new approaches that align with responsible management and Taoist principles. This volume serves as a comprehensive introduction to the 3C Model of Taoism - compassion, conservation, and compliance, which forms the foundation for sustainability and excellence. Through a deep exploration of the relationships among business, management, leadership, sustainability, and excellence, readers gain valuable insights into how these aspects intertwine to shape responsible management in today's dynamic landscape. Furthermore, Volume One explores the adaptive challenges and wicked problems that organizations face in the VUCA world.

When adopting the 3C Model of Taoism, managers and leaders will discover how to manage people with compassion, embracing social responsibility; manage organizations with conservation, fostering ecological sustainability; and manage businesses with compliance, upholding strong business ethics. Volume One is an indispensable resource for managers, leaders, and scholars seeking innovative solutions and a deeper understanding of responsible management practices.

Marxism is not just a Euro-American preoccupation. It has had vibrant articulations around the world, particularly in Latin America, Africa, the Caribbean, and amongst Black diasporas. But South Asia has been relatively neglected in efforts to register the revolutionary theoretical traditions of the Global South. Reinvigorating the study of Marxism within the South Asian context, this volume of Political Power and Social Theory highlights lesser-known thinkers to unsettle the propensity within the Marxist cannon to disproportionately fixate on white male theorists. Forging an anti-imperialist Marxism through dialectical and historical approaches, chapters demonstrate how the South Asian facet of this revolutionary tradition can contribute to and even reenergize global Marxist theory.

The institution of sport has pervasive roots that are steeped in patriarchy. Despite this tradition, sport is at the forefront in making us aware of personal and social issues in global societies. However, sociological attention to family and sport is long overdue and sorely needed. Providing timely knowledge and long-awaited insights into pressing issues, this volume of Research in the Sociology of Sport establishes family and sport as a clearly identified field of study within sociology. Focusing on how families participate in sport in global societies where traditional norms are rapidly evolving, this edited collection presents unique contributions to an under researched area of sociological inquiry. Offering a wide range of perspectives and a multidisciplinary approach, contributors provide applicable solutions to this sociological oversight, and nuanced scholarship that invites future consideration. Divided into three major sections, chapters explore traditional values that are actively challenged by both children and adults, examine the effects of cultural shifts on family relationships, and assess the patriarchal structure of sport participation in global societies. Highlighting the microlevel of the family to grapple with contemporary social issues at the macrolevel of society, Family and Sport: Notable Contributions to Sociology charts new territory to advance a valuable understanding of family and sport issues.
