ARTISTIC INTERPRETATION OF THE ROLE OF ISLAM IN THE NOVEL “A TEMPEST-TESTED FATE” BY FIYUZA GATAULLINA

In regard to the growing interest of the people in religion, the Bashkir literature is changing. Modern writers are passionate about finding new methods and ways to display the values of the Islamic religion. Among them is Fiyuza Gataullina, whose spiritual investigations are determined by ideological and aesthetic content of the works and are inextricably linked to the religious atmosphere of the last century. Life experience and knowledge of Islamic culture traditions helped the author to create an artwork from everyday scenes of people's life. The specificity of her style is expressed in epithets that reveal the spiritual state of the heroes of the story. In her opinion, people even with a traditional family structure can be deeply religious and give their children a religious education based on love. The writer considers religion as a part of the overall spiritual integrity, which becomes the main concept of her creative method. The skill of the author is revealed in the professional interpretation of the precepts of Islam. Her ability to express complex experiences and feelings of the characters through the elements of nature makes a strong impression. She helps the reader to realize the psychological and philosophical role of religion, awakening in man the hope for the future, testing him for morality. The tension and drama of the events are solved in an original way, with an attempt to focus the reader's attention on one of the pillars of Islam - the prayer, through which the character of the Muslim woman is revealed. Thus, the analysis of the novel By F. Gataullina helps to understand that dua, which has firmly entered the life of Muslims, has incredible powers and takes an important place in the religious system of people's views.

Servant leadership effectiveness: do religious atmosphere and housing price matter? social information-processing Perspective

Leadership effectiveness is a result of the interaction between leadership style and the social and organizational environment. We draw on social information-processing theory and analyze how the interaction between servant leadership and the social environment (i.e., religious atmosphere and housing price in one region) influences employee behavior. We likewise measure geographic-proximity-based religious atmosphere and housing price variables on the basis of 25 geographically disparate branches of a company, including a sample of 82 supervisors and 351 employees. Multilevel analyses reveal that the interaction between servant leadership and religious atmosphere has a positive effect on employee helping behavior but not for employee voice behavior. Conversely, the interaction between servant leadership and housing price has a positive effect on employee voice behavior, but does not have such effect on employee helping behavior. We also discuss the theoretical and practical implications on leadership research.

Does religion benefit corporate social responsibility (CSR)? Evidence from China

AbstractCorporate social responsibility (CSR) has been attracting ever considerable attention from practice and academia, but the determinants of CSR remain unclear, especially in transitional economies. Using firm‐level data of listed firms in China and constructing the variable of religion through the geographic proximity method, this study investigates the relationship between religion and CSR and further explores the differences between low‐ and high‐polluting industries. Our empirical results demonstrate that religious atmosphere (Buddhism and Taoism as a whole) in a region can induce managers to be less selfish and to care more about other stakeholders, which is potentially beneficial to a firm's CSR. This effect is stronger in high‐polluting industries and less pronounced in low‐polluting industries. Also, my findings demonstrate that the above conclusions apply only for Buddhism, indicating that different religions have an asymmetric effect on CSR. This work enriches and expands the research on CSR and religion, which has important implications on the value of religion in business practice.

However, the impassive vision of religious education and healthy atmosphere in family relationships make it possible for the student family to do their best educating child in religious life.

Divided Kingdom, 561: Gamification of the Early Middle ages

Gamification has been a growing trend as a tool for pedagogical use. Incorporating game-design elements into a non-game context not only has the potential to amplify student motivation and interaction, but allows for the exploration of a new way to learn, teach, and understand history. Gregory of Tours’ Historia Francorum provides us with an interesting viewpoint into the world of 6th century Frankish Gaul. Understanding the motivations behind the characters in Gregory’s work and their relationship with the religious and political atmosphere of the 6th century can be difficult for modern readers. My project uses elements of role-playing to better engage students in interacting with the text. Students inhabit the role of a historical character from Historia Francorum and play out a narrative ‘campaign’ of multiple sessions as that character. Through research and primary source reading they will develop an understanding for their character, the world they inhabit, and their role within that society. Students engage with other students, prepare and give speeches, all in their prescribed roles. This, along with continual feedback on their actions given by the instructor, will cultivate a unique and more engaging learning atmosphere for students. My goal for this undergraduate research project is to develop an alternative approach to understanding the dynamics of early medieval Frankish society. By turning Gregory’s work into an inhabitable space, the large body of text becomes approachable and engaging to students. The final phase of the project which is underway, is testing it in a third year undergraduate history course.

Critical Mass of Women on Boards and Corporate Environmental Responsibility Disclosure

Although prior research concentrates on women representation on boards of directors and corporate social responsibility, little is known about how women directors affect corporate environmental responsibility. Drawing upon critical mass theory, this study examines how critical mass of women on boards influence corporate environmental responsibility disclosure. Based on a sample of Chinese listed firms during 2010-2015, we find that firms with critical mass of at least three women on boards engage in more corporate environmental responsibility disclosure, embodied in both high quality of corporate environmental responsibility disclosure and high speed of corporate environmental responsibility disclosure. Furthermore, monitoring degree and religious atmosphere as representatives of two kinds of institutions – formal and informal ones – both positively moderate the relationship between critical mass of women on boards and corporate environmental responsibility disclosure. The findings are valuable for policy-makers to increase corporate environmental responsibility disclosure.

A Groundless Clash of Freedoms?: The Religious Freedom of the Religiously Affiliated University and the Freedom of Faculty to Organize Under the NLRA

This article deals with the clash between faculty, especially adjunct faculty, wishing to use the processes of the National Labor Relations Board to organize at religiously affiliated universities and the objection of some of those universities who claim that the NLRB will violate their religious freedom under the Religion Clauses of the First Amendment and/or the Religious Freedom Restoration Act. This objection is based on the Supreme Court’s opinion in NLRB v. Catholic Bishop of Chicago where the Court invoked the “avoidance” doctrine to avoid deciding the First Amendment issues by deciding that Congress did not intend the NLRB to have jurisdiction over high schools operated by a church and where religious authority was pervasive. This objection, supported by two divided Circuits, wants to extend this “avoidance” mechanism to religiously affiliated universities where there is no such church authority and no pervasive religious atmosphere. The NLRB’s Pacific Lutheran University opinion seeks to preserve its jurisdiction in such cases. The effective right of many thousands of professors to organize is at issue. This article criticizes this extension of the avoidance doctrine as an evasion of a court’s duty to say what the law is and examines, on the merits, the constitutional and RFRA claims to show that the exercise of NLRB jurisdiction will in fact neither violate the Religion Clauses nor the RFRA.

Religious atmosphere and the cost of equity capital: Evidence from China

The cost of equity capital (ICC) is a crucial component of investment decisions and corporate performance evaluations. This study explores the effect of a region’s religious atmosphere on ICC and finds that ICC tends to be lower when stronger religious atmosphere is created. We further use the mediation effect method to clarify the specific channel through which religious atmosphere reduces ICC, and find that earnings quality, corporate investment efficiency and corporate social responsibility partially mediate the effect of religious atmosphere on ICC. Moreover, the relationship between religious atmosphere and ICC is more pronounced in firms with stronger external law environments and higher audit quality, indicating that formal institutions and religious tradition complement each other.

Abortion debates in Finland and the Republic of Ireland: textual analysis of experiential thinking and argumentation in parliamentary and layperson discussions

BackgroundThe ethical discussion about abortion has been polarized in Finland and the Republic of Ireland, two European countries with very different abortion legislation (liberal vs. highly restrictive). The aim of the present study was to analyze experiential thinking patterns and argumentative strategies in political and layperson debates regarding induced abortion.MethodsThe content of Finnish and Irish texts (n = 493), consisting of transcripts of parliamentary debates and online texts, such as blogs, was analyzed systematically. The texts were investigated for the aspects of experiential thinking, for selected argumentative moves and for any differences in the prevalence of these features between countries or between political vs. layperson debates.ResultsThe Finnish and Irish discussions about induced abortion relied heavily on experiential thinking patterns and emotionally laden arguments instead of objective research data. This was evident in the very high prevalence of testimonials, narratives, loaded language and appeals to emotion in both political and layperson debates regardless of the country or the debater's position on abortion issue. Research data that did not support the position of the debater were relatively often omitted by confirmation bias. The Irish debaters appealed to popularity more often than the Finnish ones, while magical/religious thinking was mainly observed in the Finnish layperson discussion. The national history and the prevailing cultural and religious atmosphere of the two countries could explain these differences.ConclusionsThe abortion debate mostly reinforces the opinions of one's peer group rather than convinces the opposite party to change their position. The stalemate and continuation of the same arguments being repeated could be associated with experiential thinking and emotional argumentative strategies in both political and layperson debates.

Religious Atmosphere and Agency Conflicts in Corporate Investment:An Empirical Study Based on the Number of Temples around Listed Companies

Economic operation relies on specific social institutions,but it is difficult to explain the rapid development of Chinese economy from the perspective of formal systems.Therefore,this paper explores the role of religion as an informal system in microeconomic operation,and further investigates the effects of the interaction of informal and formal systems on corporate behavior.Using the hand-collected data of the number of temples around listed firms from 2001 to 2012,this paper takes the coefficient of the response of free cash flow to over-investment as a proxy of agency conflicts in corporate investment,and examines whether religious atmosphere affects agency conflicts between owners and managers in corporate investment.It finds that religious atmosphere is significantly negatively associated with agency conflicts between owners and managers,suggesting that religious atmosphere is conducive to the mitigation of agency conflicts in corporate investment.Moreover,it also shows that formal systems attenuate the negative association between religious atmosphere and agency conflicts.
