To many outsiders, Fundamentalist speech seems contradictory, irrational, intolerant, and dangerously antidemocratic. To understand the complexity of Fundamentalism, we have to look inside the tensions and the paradoxes. We have to take seriously the ways in which Fundamentalists describe themselves to themselves, and to do that, we must begin by exploring the central role of "the church" in Fundamentalist rhetoric and politics. Edwards blends a complex yet readable treatment of rhetorical and political theory with a sophisticated approach to Fundamentalism that neither dismisses its appeal nor glosses over its irresolvable tensions

Motivated by the ongoing post‐Enron refocusing on corporate governance and the shift by the Financial Services Authority (FSA) in the UK to promoting compliance‐competence within the financial services sector, this paper demonstrates how template analysis can be used as a tool for evaluating compliance‐competence. Focusing on the ethical dimension of compliance‐competence, we illustrate how this can be subjectively appraised. We propose that this evaluation technique could be utilised as a starting point in informing senior management of corporate governance issues and be used to monitor and demonstrate key compliance and ethical aspects of an institution to external stakeholders and regulators.

A oferta de experiências turísticas resulta da cooperação não só entre empresas que operam na mesma indústria, mas também entre empresas que operam em indústrias complementares, como é o caso das indústrias de turismo e de produção de vinho. Este artigo analisa a ocorrência, ou não, da cooperação intersectorial e/ou diagonal entre as empresas que operam nas indústrias de produção de vinho e turismo, tendo como objetivo examinar a situação atual da cooperação na região e compreender o potencial da cooperação entre estas empresas para a oferta de experiências turísticas. Os dados apresentados foram recolhidos através de um questionário baseado em entrevistas face-a-face aplicado aos proprietários/gestores das empresas. Os resultados indicam que a cooperação já é implementada por muitas das empresas inquiridas e que, embora as experiências turísticas não tenham sido claramente indicadas pelos inquiridos como uma das principais razões para cooperar, já a oferta de produtos/serviços e atividades complementares e diversificadas é uma das principais razões para as empresas, sobretudo as turísticas, cooperarem com as empresas produtoras de vinho. Os inquiridos reconheceram, por um lado, uma crescente procura de atividades relacionadas com a participação em vindimas e provas de vinho e, por outro, a necessidade de uma oferta adequada por forma a dar resposta às expectativas dos turistas que visitam a região. Os resultados indicam que há um reconhecimento, por parte dos inquiridos, de que esta oferta resulta da cooperação estabelecida entre as empresas. Desta forma, considera-se que existe um grande potencial para a cooperação entre estas empresas na oferta de experiências turísticas nesta região.
