This article discusses the most famous tools and methods of forming and developing the image of a modern teacher. The image is one of the main elements of management that contributes to increasing ...the efficiency of the organization. In addition, it is an instrument of influence on the public and individual consciousness, which needs constant monitoring. However, the image acts not only as a means of management, but also as an object of management. Therefore, starting from the moment of its formation, it is necessary to carry out purposeful continuous work on the image, while taking into account the characteristics of each target group. All this will help the modern teacher to correctly formulate and develop their image. After all, image is the key to success of a leader.
The article considers the problem of topological descriptors of a philosophical text. Topological descriptors act as discursive points for the localization of the philosophical text, which allow us ...to describe its role and place in the production of modern humanitarian knowledge. Three perspectives of the analysis of the philosophical text in the contemporary sociocultural situation are outlined: the perspective of historical and philosophical research, the perspective of cultural research and the perspective of modern humanitarian knowledge. The historical and philosophical perspective from the point of view of topology is described through genre differences between philosophical texts, and also taking into account the differences between philosophical schools, trends, styles of thinking in intellectual history. The perspective of cultural research includes a philosophical text in a wide context of political, social and cultural transformations of modern society, and it becomes possible to talk about social topology. The perspective of modern humanitarian knowledge is analyzed from the perspective of the rehabilitation of philosophical discourse, the need for detailed textual work for the full inclusion of philosophy in the production process of significant social and cultural knowledge. As an original methodological approach, the article describes topological analytics, which is actively used by modern researchers to solve a whole range of issues of localization, description and understanding of the role of a philosophical text in modern humanities. Conclusions are drawn about the prospects of further research in this direction.
Empire of Humanityexplores humanitarianism's remarkable growth from its humble origins in the early nineteenth century to its current prominence in global life. In contrast to most contemporary ...accounts of humanitarianism that concentrate on the last two decades, Michael Barnett ties the past to the present, connecting the antislavery and missionary movements of the nineteenth century to today's peacebuilding missions, the Cold War interventions in places like Biafra and Cambodia to post-Cold War humanitarian operations in regions such as the Great Lakes of Africa and the Balkans; and the creation of the International Committee of the Red Cross in 1863 to the emergence of the major international humanitarian organizations of the twentieth century. Based on extensive archival work, close encounters with many of today's leading international agencies, and interviews with dozens of aid workers in the field and at headquarters,Empire of Humanityprovides a history that is both global and intimate.
Avoiding both romanticism and cynicism,Empire of Humanityexplores humanitarianism's enduring themes, trends, and, most strikingly, ethical ambiguities. Humanitarianism hopes to change the world, but the world has left its mark on humanitarianism. Humanitarianism has undergone three distinct global ages-imperial, postcolonial, and liberal-each of which has shaped what humanitarianism can do and what it is. The world has produced not one humanitarianism, but instead varieties of humanitarianism. Furthermore, Barnett observes that the world of humanitarianism is divided between an emergency camp that wants to save lives and nothing else and an alchemist camp that wants to remove the causes of suffering. These camps offer different visions of what are the purpose and principles of humanitarianism, and, accordingly respond differently to the same global challenges and humanitarianism emergencies. Humanitarianism has developed a metropolis of global institutions of care, amounting to a global governance of humanity. This humanitarian governance, Barnett observes, is an empire of humanity: it exercises power over the very individuals it hopes to emancipate.
Although many use humanitarianism as a symbol of moral progress, Barnett provocatively argues that humanitarianism has undergone its most impressive gains after moments of radical inhumanity, when the "international community" believes that it must atone for its sins and reduce the breach between what we do and who we think we are. Humanitarianism is not only about the needs of its beneficiaries; it also is about the needs of the compassionate.

Bread from Stones,a highly anticipated book from historian Keith David Watenpaugh, breaks new ground in analyzing the theory and practice of modern humanitarianism. Genocide and mass violence, human ...trafficking, and the forced displacement of millions in the early twentieth century Eastern Mediterranean form the background for this exploration of humanitarianism's role in the history of human rights.Watenpaugh's unique and provocative examination of humanitarian thought and action from a non-Western perspective goes beyond canonical descriptions of relief work and development projects. Employing a wide range of source materials-literary and artistic responses to violence, memoirs, and first-person accounts from victims, perpetrators, relief workers, and diplomats-Watenpaugh argues that the international answer to the inhumanity of World War I in the Middle East laid the foundation for modern humanitarianism and the specific ways humanitarian groups and international organizations help victims of war, care for trafficked children, and aid refugees.Bread from Stonesis required reading for those interested in humanitarianism and its ideological, institutional, and legal origins, as well as the evolution of the movement following the collapse of the Ottoman Empire and the advent of late colonialism in the Middle East.
This thesis looks at the question of humanitarianism within a theoretical perspective that refrains from essentialism and the universalist tradition of thought. Humanitarianism is treated as a locale ...where tension, inconsistency, and inequality can be identified. It is a locale where discourses of humanity, suffering, compassion, rescuing, accountability, and right are examined in the course of discussing the current humanitarianism paradox and its practical challenges. By bringing those notions into focus, the thesis argues that humanitarianism should be conceptualised as a politics of life in that it occupies a totalitarian type of thinking. Central to this politics is humanitarianism's call to operationalise and standardise its interventions through adopting the moral, political, and principled horizons of the Western paradigm of "care and rescue". The implication of such a position fixes certain historically, politically, and culturally unequal relations in subjects' positions- namely those of the rescuer and the distant 'Other'- the rescued. This configuration is fuelled by the contemporary notion of aid assistance that conceptualises and restrains the category of 'suffering' to 'bodily human needs'- attributed to the abstract conception of humanity. As such, humanitarianism confines its approach to "one more blanket" or "a bed for the night". Consequently, the identity of the 'victims', 'beneficiaries', and 'rescued' have been transformed from political, historical, social, and cultural beings to the natural universal imagery of the biological self. Related to this is the discussion of the separation of politics and humanitarianism. To overcome these humanitarian trajectories, there is a need to politicise philanthropic humanitarianism through the human rights approach, precisely that of rights-based humanitarianism. Yet, the thesis argues that neither of these should be considered the absolute proper answer to the humanitarianism crises, as both are usually reconfigured through a Western subjectivity embedded in a relationship of power and domination. The thesis concludes with the importance of theorising the politics and practice of humanitarianism, and central to this is the critique of Eurocentrism and the foundationalist embrace of truth, progress, and common humanity.
This thesis is concerned with creative responses to the 2015-16 Calais Jungle and the 'refugee crisis' in Europe. Departing from studies that approach the Jungle as a 'state of exception', it draws ...instead upon the overdetermined notions of 'refugee voice' and 'refugee storytelling' to consider how 'humanity' has been negotiated, granted and revoked in Calais. I argue that creative representations of the Jungle signal a new chapter in refugee humanitarianism: one in which the 'human' of human rights, and the 'human' of humanitarianism, have become discursively entangled. I chart an emergent language of grassroots refugee solidarity through texts, plays, documentaries, films, installations, exhibitions, and visual artworks produced about the Jungle between 2015 and 2020. I demonstrate the ideological role that refugees and asylum seekers have played in shoring up the spatiotemporal boundaries of the European nation during the 'refugee crisis', via a rhetorical process termed here 'the affective economy of hopes and dreams'. Finally, the thesis argues that the Calais Jungle was not the edge, limit or 'other' of Europe. Rather, for British and European citizens, the camp has played a pivotal role in rethinking Europe as a geopolitical construct, and 'Europeanness' as a cultural concept, in the post-Brexit age.
lationships, processes in which a person can not always find its meaning. Extensive financial, technological and information capabilities provide comfort to many people, who lost for the ...understanding of certain values, faith in goodness, altruism, help to people in need. As a result - we become stale, corrupt, or lose faith in God or in humanity that, in fact, can lead to the destruction of human as a top of evolution. What fate awaits humanity in such circumstances? This question has no single answer, but at least one way the researchers Michael Barnett and Janice Gross Stein offer in the collective work Sacred Aid: Faith and Humanitarianism. This work reveals a Humanitarianism phenomenon in the modern world, its correlation with a faith, secular and sacred, the place and role of religious organisations in carrying out humanitarian activities and etc. The book consists of nine chapters, each of which illustrates the study of several prominent scholars from certain aspects of Humanitarianism that is implicit theoretical value and practical significance of this kind of research papers.
