Abstract:
IS IT NECESSARY or even possible to design educational organisation after a distinctly Christian pattern? How Christian an organisation is surely depends on more than attaching the label ‘Christian’ or even the carrying out of a Christian mission. There is perhaps an unspoken assumption by Christians that when they organise to carry out a Christian purpose, they will inevitably do so in a Christian way. Ultimately, all Christian organisations have an educating agenda of some sort, ranging from formal school education to a multiplicity of other educating activities. But is a Christian oganisati

Abstract:
Philanthropic organisations are engaged in diverse welfare and development works including community development in India. A substantial number of these organisations are faith-based organisations (FBOs). While religion impacts people in many ways, religious tenets and practices have shaped, and in many cases strengthened, much of philanthropic activity. This paper focuses on the socio-economic change impacted by a philanthropic organisation called Bettiah Parish Society, successively managed by two FBOs since 1745, for the development of a Christian community, located at Bettiah, West Champar

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to examine the challenges confronting Christian-based organisations operating in the employment services quasi-market in Australia.

Abstract:
This paper examines the ethos of organisations providing emergency services for homeless people in Britain. Drawing on extensive surveys of nonstatutory organisations we present a discourse analysis of statements of ‘mission’, ‘values’, and ‘ethics’, arguing that, although care needs to be exercised in translating organisational ethos into likely practices of care, these overarching messages of ethos are significant waymarkers in the moral landscapes of caring for homeless people. Using Coles's rethinking of the politics of generosity, we interrogate ethos in terms of three ideal types—Christi

This article examines how Christian churches have contributed to the European Union immigration and asylum policy.

The article identifies the main Christian organisations, which work in the area of migration and asylum at the EU level, as well as their areas of specific contribution.

Across is a Christian mission organisation working in South Sudan, which was founded in 1972 after the Addis Ababa Agreement brought to an end the First Sudanese Civil War (1955-1972). Schein’s theory of organisational culture states that ‘the essence of a group's culture is its pattern of shared, basic taken-for-granted assumptions’.

Internationally, faith based groups are increasingly being called upon to play a part in the response to HIV. In India, where there are approximately 2.5 million people living with HIV, there is an increasing interest by groups such as the Centre for Disease Control and the World Health Organisation to partner with Faith Based Organisations (FBOs) to maximise the response to HIV. However, little is understood about these FBOs, and, in particular, how faith might affect their response. Some postulate that faith is no longer relevant; others view faith as merely an impediment.

AbstractThis chapter studies the influence of Western archaeological organisations on scientific and diplomatic issues in interwar Palestine. It analyses their role on a local scale and the establishment of a scientific network of archaeologists in Palestine from 1918 to 1938. The analysis from the archives of six schools and societies founded by Western powers in Jerusalem revealing the increasing influence of American scholars in the archaeological field. It asks what motivated American actors to invest in the archaeological field and related diplomatic issues, as the US government did not have direct political power in the Middle East at that time. It ultimately demonstrates the presence of informal American imperialism in scientific and diplomatic issues in relation to the British authorities during the Mandate period.

AbstractThis chapter focuses on the role of Russian institutions in Palestine before, during and after WWI. The task of the first Russian mission was the control over the distribution of Russian donations, supporting Orthodoxy against Catholic and Protestant proselytisation and organising pilgrimages. Being founded with both political and philanthropic aims, the Russian organisations in Palestine supported the local Orthodox Arab population. Along with the traditional colonial modes of “soft power” in Palestine and Greater Syria (acquiring land and organising schools), on the eve and during WWI more flexible trends appear, providing a dialogue and cooperation with both the Greek Patriarchate and the Arab party. After the revolution of 1917 the Russian presence in Palestine was reduced to a few institutions of the Russian Church Abroad, and lost its political significance.
