This lecture was to commemorate the life and work of the late Martin Luther King Jnr. Brother Herman was the founder of `Harambee' in Islington and served the black community in Britain for many years before returning to live in Antigua. He was to have given this lecture, but was not strong enough. Illustrates the theme of selfhelp in the black community by reference to Brother Herman's work. He was drawn towards selfhelp in the mid 1960s by the burgeoning ideas about Black Power and a deep concern about what was happening to young members of the black community.
PurposeThe aim of this paper is to present a macro view of the evolution of innovation for value creation, from the closed to collaborative, open, and now co‐innovation. It reviews several mega trends that have dramatically changed the dynamic nature of the global market place and also several new forces that have made innovation imperative for organizational value creation.Design/methodology/approachThe paper provides a conceptual overview of co‐innovation through some of its basic elements such as convergence revolution, collaboration, and co‐creation with stakeholders.FindingsCo‐innovation is a new innovation paradigm where new ideas and approaches from various internal and external sources are integrated in a platform to generate new organizational and shared values. The core of co‐innovation includes engagement, co‐creation, and compelling experience for value creation. Thus, the practices of co‐innovative organizations are difficult to imitate by competition.Practical implicationsInnovation is imperative for organizational survival in today's turbulent global market. This conceptual paper presents many real‐world examples of co‐innovative firms' strategies that can provide new insights for follower organizations.Social implicationsInnovation is a universal strategy for every organization, be it a firm, non‐profit organization, or even a government agency. The new innovation approaches suggested in the paper can contribute to social reforms such as creating shared value for all stakeholders.Originality/valueThis is an original paper that presents a broad‐stroke direction and vision for new organizational strategies for innovation.
Um 1900 war Großbritannien auf dem Höhepunkt seiner Macht und besaß ein riesiges Empire. Kein anderes Land hatte damals einen ähnlich hohen Grad an Urbanisierung und Industrialisierung erreicht. Auch Konsumgesellschaft und Populärkultur waren deutlich weiter entwickelt. Nirgendwo sonst vollzogen sich aber auch der Rückgang der Industrie und der Aufstieg der Dienstleistungen so früh und so gründlich. Dieser zeitliche Vorsprung Großbritanniens hatte Vor- und Nachteile. Viele Entwicklungen dauerten länger als auf dem Kontinent, wo man auf britische Erfahrungen aufbauen konnte. Zugleich blieb den Briten aber mehr Zeit, sich auf die Veränderungen einzustellen. Das geschah nicht ohne Gewalt, insbesondere in den Kolonien. Doch die gesellschaftlichen Konflikte verliefen deutlich friedlicher als etwa in Deutschland, so dass George Orwell als wichtigste Eigenschaft der Briten hervorhob «einander nicht zu töten». Mit viel Sympathie für seinen Gegenstand porträtiert Franz-Josef Brüggemeier Großbritannien im 20. Jahrhundert und öffnet den Blick für die Vielfalt der britischen Geschichte. Biographische Informationen Franz-Josef Brüggemeier, geb. 1951, ist Professor für Sozial- und Wirtschaftsgeschichte an der Universität Freiburg.

The task of this paper discusses the role of Marx in 20th Century and culture today. An analysis of contemporary political economy Studies works that with the new global crisis of capitalism, a new interest in Karl Marx's works has emerged. Karl Marx—German philosopher, economist, and revolutionary—believed a just world could be achieved only through the evolution of humanity from a capitalist to a socialist economy and society. The new world economic crisis that started is the most obvious reason for the return of the interest in Marx. The paper argues that Marx's Both a scholar and a political activist, Marx addressed a wide range of political as well as social issues, and is known for, among other things, his analysis of history. The interpretations of his theories, particularly those on political economy, have in the course of history generated decades of debate, inspired revolutions and cast him as both devil and deity in political and academic circles.
The Confederate Graves Survey Archive of the Texas Division, Sons of Confederate Veterans consists of surveys of cemeteries throughout Texas, and portions of Oklahoma and New Mexico. The surveys document the interment of Confederate States of America military veterans. United States of America (Union) veterans, as well as able-bodied men at the time of the Civil War, are also documented. 13 boxes entitled "Grave Surveys" contain grave surveys listed county-by-county, 3 boxes of "Unit Files" list surveyed individuals by their military unit. Finally, 17 boxes contain "Veteran Files" that document each veteran by name in "last name, first name, middle initial" format. An index that cross-references each of the collection series (Grave Surveys, Unit Files, and Veteran Files) is included, as are institutions to surveyors on how and what to document while conducting surveys. ; Salado Cemetery #4, Salado, Bell County, Texas | Veterans Interred: Blalock, John C. ; Rose Hill Cemetery #165, Merkel, Taylor County, Texas | Veterans Interred: Childress, Hiram C. ; Knox City Cemetery #608, Knox City, Knox County, Texas | Veterans Interred: Guthrie, Wm.

This project presents a cowritten fictional narrative that evokes questions about schooling. The story depicts future quasi-archeologists interpreting "found" educational artifacts—our data. The process of writing defamiliarized our perspectives on public school teaching and helped us explore the borders of what is valued in social science research. Early on, we established structures and criteria for sharing physical artifacts with one another. Then, we engaged in dialogue from the perspective of our characters using an adapted set of steps for document analysis to guide our interaction with the unfamiliar artifacts. Throughout, our discussions and narrative drafting helped us establish a more complete fictional future for our imagined researchers to inhabit. We identified three themes that we articulate through theory to build our critique of schooling. We have found that fiction writing not only helped us achieve defamiliarization, but our inquiry suggests that fiction writing operates effectively as a rigorous analytic lens.
