Decadence - Wikipedia

Decadence

The word decadence, which at first meant simply "decline" in an abstract sense, is now most often used to refer to a perceived decay in standards, morals, dignity, religious faith, honor, discipline, or skill at governing among the members of the elite of a very large social structure, such as an empire or nation state.

The word decadence, which at first meant simply "decline" in an abstract sense, is now most often used to refer to a perceived decay in standards, morals, dignity, religious faith, honor, discipline, or skill at governing among the members of the elite of a very large social structure, such as an empire or nation state. By extension, it may refer to a decline in art, literature, science, technology, and work ethics, or (very loosely) to self-indulgent behavior.

Usage of the term sometimes implies moral censure, or an acceptance of the idea, met with throughout the world since ancient times, that such declines are objectively observable and that they inevitably precede the destruction of the society in question; for this reason, modern historians use it with caution. The word originated in Medieval Latin (dēcadentia), appeared in 16th-century French, and entered English soon afterwards. It bore the neutral meaning of decay, decrease, or decline until the late 19th century, when the influence of new theories of social degeneration contributed to its modern meaning.

In literature, the Decadent movement—late nineteenth century fin de siècle writers who were associated with Symbolism or the Aesthetic movement—was first given its name by hostile critics. Later it was triumphantly adopted by some of the writers themselves. The Decadents praised artifice over nature and sophistication over simplicity, defying contemporary discourses of decline by embracing subjects and styles that their critics considered morbid and over-refined. Some of these writers were influenced by the tradition of the Gothic novel and by the poetry and fiction of Edgar Allan Poe.

It’s Time for Grown-Ups to Grow Up | #Character #Moral #ETHICS

It’s Time for Grown-Ups to Grow Up | #Character #Moral #ETHICS | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it

Kids do crazy things, but we expect more from grown-ups, don’t we? Unfortunately, that’s not always the case. Folks scream obscenities at ballgames, bully people on social media, and treat others with total disrespect. If you think this behavior is rude, insensitive, and tasteless, you’re right. But why is it so prevalent? The truth is, some people behave this way for personal gain; some folks don’t know better; and others know they’ll get away with it — because they have in the past. Some grown-ups never grow up.

While some indiscretions were once considered outlandish, we’ve become desensitized to these actions. It’s troubling that some of this behavior could have been avoided, but too many of us didn’t speak up. Instead, we closed our eyes to the poor behavior and waited for others to make the first move. The consequence is that wrongs committed by enough people become the norm over time. We have no one to blame except ourselves.

As leaders, role models, and parents, we must utilize every opportunity to reinforce the values that we hold dear.

What Values Do You Cherish?
Are polite manners a thing of the past? Should people honor their word? Is it Pollyanna to expect people to do what’s right? I think not! But if we don’t promote good values, don’t be surprised when bad ones become the norm. “How do we improve the situation?” you ask.

First, we must modify our criterion of excellence. It’s not what you have but who you are that counts. Moral character matters!

Compromise: Redefining Winning | #WinWin #Character #Ethics #Moral #Adapting | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it
If you define winning as getting the upper hand, backing your opponent into a corner, and winning at any expense, you’ve got it all wrong. You may win in the short term, but think about the relationship going forward. Do those actions build trust, teamwork, and respect? I think not. You’ve probably created enough animosity, distrust, and jealousy to last a lifetime. In other words, you may have won the battle, but lost the war. There’s a better way…winning doesn’t have to be at someone’s expense.

Compromise: A Win-Win Strategy

Some people need to win at all costs because their ego won’t accept anything less. They’d rather win personally than accomplish something meaningful. Compromise isn’t a synonym for surrender; it’s a winning battle plan.

Jealousy - Wikipedia | #Moral #Character 

Jealousy - Wikipedia

Jealousy is an emotion, and the word typically refers to the thoughts and feelings of insecurity, fear, concern, and anxiety over an anticipated loss of status or something of great personal value, particularly in reference to a human connection. Jealousy often consists of a combination of emotions such as anger, resentment, inadequacy, helplessness and disgust.

Jealousy is often reinforced as a series of particularly strong emotions and constructed as a universal human experience; it has been a theme of many artistic works. Psychologists have proposed several models of the processes underlying jealousy and have identified factors that result in jealousy. Sociologists have demonstrated that cultural beliefs and values play an important role in determining what triggers jealousy and what constitutes socially acceptable expressions of jealousy.

 

Biologists have identified factors that may unconsciously influence the expression of jealousy. Artists have explored the theme of jealousy in photographs, paintings, films, songs, plays, poems, and books. Theologians have offered religious views of jealousy based on the scriptures of their respective faiths.

For People to Trust You, Reveal Your Intentions

For People to Trust You, Reveal Your Intentions | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it
In our last blog, we discussed the importance of competence for fostering the trust you need as a manager to influence others.

 

We stressed that management competence includes not just technical knowledge of the work but operational and political know-how as well.

 

Here we want to focus on the other great component of trust — character — but by taking a different approach.

 

So far we've argued that intentions — character — are the foundation of trust, that they must be supported by competence, and that you must take pains to reveal them. But we haven't addressed the question of your intentions themselves. Does it matter what your intentions are?

 

Yes, of course it does. We don't trust anyone simply because they have clear intentions. Otherwise, we'd trust Hannibal Lector and other villains.

 

===> People trust us because we have the right intentions, which are those intentions people accept and agree with. What are "the right" intentions? <===

 

That's not an easy question to answer, especially for a boss, and it's the subject of our next blog.

 

Read more, very interesting...

Bonnes mœurs — Wikipédia

Bonnes mœurs

Sur les autres projets Wikimedia : Les bonnes mœurs sont les habitudes, les usages conformes à la moralité, à la religion et à la culture d'un pays ou d'un peuple. Elles constituent un ensemble de normes, le plus souvent coutumières, en partie formulées dans les traités de civilité et dans les règles de droit civil et pénal.

Les bonnes mœurs sont les habitudes, les usages conformes à la moralité, à la religion et à la culture d'un pays ou d'un peuple. Elles constituent un ensemble de normes, le plus souvent coutumières, en partie formulées dans les traités de civilité et dans les règles de droit civil et pénal. Elles varient selon les peuples et les époques, et constituent l'un des objets d'étude de l'ethnologie et de la sociologie historique.

La notion de bonnes mœurs porte essentiellement sur la vie privée et sur son respect, elle est le contrepoint de celle d'ordre public.

Les bonnes mœurs renvoient de nos jours principalement aux sexualités : pornographie, inceste, polygamie, prostitution, proxénétisme, pudeur, etc.

Sitte – Wikipedia

Sitte

Eine Sitte ist eine durch moralische Werte, Regeln oder soziale Normen bedingte, in einer bestimmten Gruppe oder Gemeinschaft entstandene und für den Einzelnen verbindlich geltende Verhaltensnorm (vgl. Ferdinand Tönnies, Die Sitte, 1908). Meist beruht sie auf Tradition und Gewohnheit (= „Usus"). Eine Sitte ist jedoch mehr als Gewohnheit; denn es gibt auch als schlecht bewertete Gewohnheiten (manchmal Unsitte genannt).

Dekadenz – Wikipedia

Dekadenz

Dekadenz (von lateinisch „fallen", „sinken", französisch „Niedergang", „Verfall", über mittellateinisch decadentia) ist ein ursprünglich geschichtsphilosophischer Begriff, mit dem Veränderungen in Gesellschaften und Kulturen als Verfall, Niedergang beziehungsweise Verkommenheit gedeutet und kritisiert wurden. Er wurde in der französischen Historiographie zuerst für den Niedergang Roms gezielt verwendet. Die Kritik am Dekadenten emanzipiert sich vom hergebrachten religiösen Moralisieren.

Er wurde in der französischen Historiographie zuerst für den Niedergang Roms gezielt verwendet. Die Kritik am Dekadenten emanzipiert sich vom hergebrachten religiösen Moralisieren.

In der Geschichtswissenschaft hat man inzwischen den Dekadenzbegriff zur Charakterisierung gesellschaftlicher Entwicklungsabschnitte fallen lassen.[1] Nur in der Dekadenzdichtung hat das Wort auch eine positive Bedeutung; im Sprachgebrauch überwiegt der abwertende Charakter.

Art Lang's comment, January 5, 2018 4:17 AM
Quote from the passage: “I’m Sorry.” When did the phrase “I’m sorry” morph into “I’m sorry, but…”? If you are sincerely sorry and want to apologize, then do so, without reservation. It takes an individual of true integrity to admit when he or she has erred. If you’re not truly sorry, why not just skip the apology and avoid compounding the problem?

Opinions: I think this is the modern generation expression of "yes, I am wrong, I should'nt have done what I did, but (even so you should'nt have done this or said this)/(I did'nt mean it this way or I did'nt want it to happen in this way)...". I feel that this individual is just trying to convey the fact that even though she or he does feel apologetic about what he or she has done, she feels that despite this, her mistakes does not negate the other party's mistake or she/he might have wanted to justify the reasons why she had done the things she had done, to avoid misunderstandingsa about the rationale of her actions. I do not feel that it compounds the problen, in fact I think that it makes a problem simpler, by clearing a misunderstanding. The problem might have been complicated earlier due to the misunderstanding, but once the misunderstanding is cleared, the problem is thus simplified.


Quote from the passage: “Please” and “Thank you.” Today’s economic downturn has spawned more cutthroat behavior with less time for courtesies.
Truth be told, with the same speed at which technology has swept the world, manners have been swept under the proverbial rug. I’m left wondering, is this rudeness the result of today’s angst or a trend of indifference that has evolved over time?
While it doesn’t take much effort to say “please” and “thank you,” some people forgo these pleasantries because they simply don’t know better, while others apparently feel these words are beneath their “pay grade.” How much effort does it take to show some gratitude for a job well done? (It’s not as if you’re being asked to solve world hunger.) The truth is, if you’re too busy to say “please” and “thank you,” don’t be surprised if others are too busy to help you in the future.


Opinions: I think this does not necessarily apply everywhere even though everybody's lifepace has quickened and this could be due to the environment in which one is working at. Also I feel that other than just looking at the surface of these issues, we should look into it and understand why it actually happens.
Firstly, I feel that it depends on the environment and the upbringing of the people. In working environments, where no common spirit are cultivated or not having a feeling of closeness with one colleagues may make certain people feel shy or not be able to relate to the people around them.
For example, if a healthy and a close-knitted working environment is cultivated, where everyone is friendly and close to each other, they will offer help in times of trouble or when one is busy due to the common spirit they share amongst themselves. And thus with this feeling of closeness people will not be as shy, as if they were strangers, to say "please" or "thank you" and the may understand each other better.
Next, a person's upbringing may also impact greatly on how they interact with other people. Regardless of economic downturn, or the quickening of life pace, if a person is not properly taught of basic courtesies and its importance since young, they may not be able to use such words to show gratitude to the people around them instead they may use other ways to thank others or they may not know how to ask a person nicely to do something, and end up commanding them. And yet the other party does not get feel that she or he has been mistreated as the person is asking of a favour without courtesy or that their help for that person had been ignored without understanding that the other party, the one without proper upbringing, had used other ways to thank that person. Thus family upbringing and teachers will have to play a huge role in cultivating a person, to ensure that that individuals will always be courteous no matter what happens, so as to ensure that people of the future generation will be able to interact and understand each other well enough such that everybody will feel respected.

Wikipedia explains service learning as: "An educational approach that combines learning objectives with community service in order to provide a pragmatic, progressive learning experience while meeting societal needs."

That second definition is easier to comprehend, but it still feels more complicated than it needs to be. How about this: In service learning, students learn educational standards through tackling real-life problems in their community.

Envy - Wikipedia | #Character #Moral

Envy - Wikipedia

Aristotle (in Rhetoric) defined envy (φθόνος phthonos) "as the pain caused by the good fortune of others", while Kant defined it as "a reluctance to see our own well-being overshadowed by another's because the standard we use to see how well off we are is not the intrinsic worth of our own well-being but how it compares with that of others" (in Metaphysics of Morals).

However, psychologists have recently suggested that there may be two types of envy: malicious envy and benign envy—malicious envy being proposed as a sick force that ruins a person and his/her mind and causes the envious person to blindly want the "hero" to suffer; on the other hand, benign envy being proposed as a type of positive motivational force that causes the person to aspire to be as good as the "hero"-but only if benign envy is used in a right way.[4][5]
