While these trappings have vanished from our modern, capitalist age, this sphere, filled now with a new form of emptiness, insists with implacable force. As such, this volume should be of interest to students of international relations, international law, and anthropology. Talks about the Dichotomy of Ownership (Dichotomy of Leadership and Extreme Ownership) and the last section of the book is a summary of The 12 Week Year by Brian Moran. He teaches us to reclaim what we have lost and he does so as one who has battled himself to win himself again. I decided it was about time I read his book, and while I can't say I made a lot of new discoveries, his straightforward, get-to-the-point approach on what men should do to take control of their lives was still a breath of fresh air.

They know that if they mess up, they’ll be mocked, ridiculed, chastised, and even punished for making the wrong choice. His military training, and the life or death stakes he was up against, reinforced the need to take responsibility, duty, and attentiveness extremely seriously. Schuster, focusing on the extreme theatricality and self-satirical comedy of the present, shows how authority reasserts itself at the very moment of distrust and disillusionment in the system, profiting off its supposed decline.Translating Food Sovereignty accompanies activists based in the Pacific Northwest of the United States as they mobilize the claim of food sovereignty across local, regional, and global arenas of governance.

I also caught myself today coaching a coworker in regards to the virtues of mastery and ownership, ceasing to think thoughts that do not serve you, what feelings like anxiety actually represent (mere indicators from the body to the mind), and so forth. In this book you are given the building blocks to forge your own plan, but you must do the work if you are to succeed. Since he was older than me (which seemed very important at the time), I took the book, thanked him, and didn’t read it. This book details all the documents that will help you get on the right path to understanding how the system, which is designed to enslave you, works. My point—if we have eyes to see—is that the tension in which the Bible sets the doctrine of God’s sovereignty is the Bible’s solution to this difficulty.If you’re looking for a book that’s no fluff and full of actionable steps, this is the book for you! It has now become his life’s mission to help men across the planet step more fully into their roles as protectors, providers, and presiders over themselves, their families, their businesses, and their communities. Liberia's history anticipated challenges still faced by developing countries today, and offers a new perspective on the role of power and power relationships in shaping Africa's economic history. Sovereignty and superheroes marks a major new contribution to the emerging field of comic studies and the growing literature on superheroes. This book did initiate change in me, but it took me a considerable amount of time to read because, to be frank, it's dull at times.

In an era where almost universally masculinity reflexively gets bemoaned as inherently toxic, Ryan refreshingly encourages men to be men. In highly erudite fashion, Feldman cites examples from ethnography, but also from philosophy, literature, pop culture, and a wide range of other contexts to support his argument through different historical periods… I found it very refreshing to read a book of such wide historical and intellectual scope. Mazzarella examines the contemporary merger of consumer brand and political brand and the cross-contamination of politics and economics, warning against all too easy laments about the corruption of politics by marketing.Using a range of critical theorists, the book examines superheroes as sovereigns, addressing amongst other things the complex treatment of law and violence, legitimacy and authority. Many men far greater than me have theologized and philosophized about these biblical realities, drawing ever nearer to that horizon of mystery. A powerful addition to a growing body of work aimed at enhancing our understanding of the ways in which, through the vector of finance, a transnational power regime controls the key levers of policy-making in Africa and undermines efforts at winning economic sovereignty.
