To address the issue of hazardous missions, this article uses the framework of shifts in missionary emphasis: from cross-cultural to intra-cultural mission, from first-generation to second-generation mission, and from human-centered to Earth-centered mission. The helpful or harmful characteristics of missionaries are not just personal hut also structural, that is, inherent in the culture from which the missionaries originate. This article suggests that the three related shifts in missionary emphasis noted above reduce the hazards of Christian mission, but in turn introduce some new hazards.

This study discusses the importance of involving all congregation members in carrying out missions. The involvement of church members begins with the Christian family knowing the values of the mission. This is inseparable from how Christian leaders apply it in ministry. The purpose of the study was to explain the application of mission values in Christian families in Mentawai, by considering the condition of diversity that continues to grow in culture, religion, and tribe in Mentawai, West Sumatra. The method used is qualitative by collecting data from the literature. The results of the study found that the application of mission values in the Christian family can be made by being a bearer of good news, being a congregation of disciples, being a congregation that grows in teaching, and being a congregation that supports missions. The diversity of cultures, religions, and tribes in Mentawai can trigger the enthusiasm and persistence of the Church, both GKPM and other churches that serve there.

AbstractAlthough there is a large, sophisticated literature on gender and mission work, single women still remain on the periphery of those studies. Through the case of Martha L. Moors, a single American missionary working in Portuguese West Africa (Angola today) in the 1920s, this essay offers an examination of how the two identities of 'single woman' and 'missionary' affected mission culture and work. Single women occupied a tenuous position, as they were often called upon to instruct non-Christian women on the principles of Christian marriage and motherhood. Moors' writings allow for an intimate consideration of how single women fit into mission culture and their reflections of how they serve the missions. Single women had to support the missions in ways that exemplified Christian femininity while lacking the validity of being wives and mothers. Quoique les études sur le genre et la mission soient nombreuses et sophistiquées, les travaux portant sur des femmes célibataires restent marginaux. En étudiant la trajectoire de Martha L. Moors, une missionnaire américaine célibataire ayant travaillé dans les années 1920 en Afrique de l'Ouest Portugaise (aujourd'hui Angola), cet article se penche sur la façon dont les catégories identitaires de « femme célibataire » et de « missionnaire » ont influé sur la culture et le travail des missions. Les femmes célibataires occupaient une place précaire dans la mesure où elles étaient souvent appelées à enseigner à des femmes non-chrétiennes les principes chrétiens du mariage et de la maternité. Les écrits de Moors nous offrent témoignage intime sur l'insertion des femmes célibataires dans la culture de la mission et sur leurs réflexions quant au meilleur moyen de servir celle-ci. Les femmes célibataires devaient soutenir l'effort missionnaire en devenant des exemples de féminité chrétienne tout en ne pouvant pas se prévaloir de la qualité d'épouse et mère.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to contribute to the understanding of mission statement contents and its function in guiding employee's behaviour from the organisational culture (OC) perspective. Design/methodology/approach – The research is based on a mixed method approach. The quantitative content analysis of mission statements was performed on a sample of 222 Slovenian companies. Mission statement's keywords were analysed with exploratory factor analysis. Advanced network analytic approaches such as PathFinder algorithm were utilised to obtain better understanding of interrelatedness of underlying mission components. Three interviews with the top managers were performed as well. Findings – The mission statement content analysis identified five associated organisations’ orientations: concern for stakeholders, orientation towards stability, orientation towards cooperation and innovation, and development and growth. The interviews confirm missions’ role in communicating the espoused or declared OC, although different approaches to achieve employees’ commitment to the organisation's mission can be identified in regard to the size of the organisation. Originality/value – The cultural approach to the analysis of mission statements confirms that the mission statements incorporate basic contents of OC. The methodology applied gives new possibilities in the research of OC perspective of strategic statements.

In his history of the Edinburgh 1910 World Missionary Conference, Brian Stanley suggests that contemporary use of “culture” in mission may be vulnerable to the same critique as was the use of “race” in the colonial missions. However, sensitivity to culture and context in postwar and postcolonial missiology has encouraged diversity, interculturality, and movements for greater equity. Drawing from contemporary missiology and critical race theory, this article asks whether attention to “culture” and “context” has mitigated racism in mission or tended to obscure it.

Military personnel must communicate clearly and effectively to carry out their missions. Although we live in an era of rapid personal and mass communication that was barely imagined just a few years ago, the Armed Forces of Azerbaijan still require face-to face briefings, background papers, and staff packages to keep the mission moving forward. This article provides the information to ensure clear, precise, and logical communications.

The early European presence in California and in the American Southwest in general is identified with missions. Although missions were equally important in Spanish Florida and at an earlier date, the average American does not associate missions with Florida or Georgia. Indeed, as David Hurst Thomas observed in a recent monograph on the archaeological exploration of a site of the Franciscan mission of Santa Catalina de Guale on Georgia's St. Catherines Island, the numerous missions of Spanish Florida have remained little known even in scholarly circles. And as Charles Hudson has noted, this ignorance or amnesia has extended to awareness of the native peoples who inhabited those Southeastern missions or were in contact with them, even though these aboriginal inhabitants of the Southeast “possessed the richest culture of any of the native people north of Mexico … by almost any measure.” Fortunately, as Thomas remarked in the above-mentioned monograph, “a new wave of interest in mission archaeology is sweeping the American Southeast.” This recent and ongoing work holds the promise of having a more lasting impact than its historical counterpart of a half-century or so ago in the work of Herbert E. Bolton, Fr. Maynard Geiger, OFM, Mary Ross, and John Tate Lanning. Over the fifty odd years since Lanning's Spanish Missions of Georgia appeared, historians and archaeologists have made significant contributions to knowledge about sites in Spanish Florida where missions or mission outstations and forts or European settlements were established. But to date no one has compiled a comprehensive listing from a historian's perspective of the mission sites among them to which one may turn for the total number of such establishments, their general location, time of foundation, length of occupation, moving, circumstances of their demise and the tribal affiliation of the natives whom they served. This catalog and its sketches attempt to meet that need.

Addressing Russian Orthodox missions in the Alaskan periphery of the Russian Empire, this article discusses the flexibility of Russian Orthodox missionaries in adapting concepts of Orthodoxy and Russianness to the circumstances of their mission in Alaska and to their individual experiences there. Consulting a range of missionary writings from 1794–1917, including reports, journals, letters, and articles in church periodicals, Murray assesses varying interpretations and methods of promoting the civilizing mission, christianization, and russification over the long nineteenth century. Efforts in education and promoting moral standards were vital to the missions but always incorporated respect for the native culture. Recognizing the importance of this periphery even after the sale of Alaska to the United States in 1867, the missionaries continued to perceive the converted Alaskan communities as tied to Russian Orthodox culture and identity and their educational and moral efforts as essential to the construction of good citizens for the new political power.

This theoretical reflection addresses issues arising in the history of world Christianity, in particular regarding mission churches in Africa since the nineteenth century. The article first evaluates the development of oral, manuscript and print communication cultures in western culture, and their influence since the first century in the Church. Modernity could only develop in a print culture, creating the cultural environment for the Reformation. Sola Scriptura theology, as in Calvin and Luther, considered the written Word of God essential for the Church’s life. The role of literacy throughout Church history is reviewed, in particular in the modern mission movement in Africa and the growing African church, to show the importance of literacy in developing a strong church. In conclusion, spiritual growth of churches in the Reformation tradition requires recognition of the primacy of print culture over orality, and the importance of a culture of reading and study.

Abstract The modern missions movement’s relationship with colonialism has brought to light many problems with contemporary conceptions of Christian mission. For many, the Bible often becomes, in the words of Tinyiko Sam Maluleke, the “colonial text par excellence.” This paper seeks to highlight – in dialogue with postcolonial critics – how 1 Pet 2:9–17 can instead provide the foundation for a theology of mission relevant to the contemporary context. First Peter distinctively anchors Christian mission in one’s Christian identity and clarifies how that identity transforms one’s relationship to one’s culture as well as to power structures in that culture. In doing so, 1 Peter eschews a triumphalist attitude and instead embodies values shared by theorists of postcolonial mission, namely narrativity, mutuality, and humility.

Drawing from published and unpublished Jesuit sources—treatises, handbooks, reports, and letters—this article explores the Jesuit apostolate to Muslim slaves in Naples and in different cities of Spain during the seventeenth century. Under the blanket of missionary rhetoric, a Jesuit viewpoint not otherwise available is found in these sources, which highlight their missionary methods and strategies and clarify the special status of the apostolate to Muslim slaves in the Jesuit mind. While Europe was the setting of missions to Muslim slaves, and the missions were considered a variation of the so-called popular missions, they were often charged with a deeper symbolic value. Because the missionaries’ interlocutors were “infidels,” so different in their culture and in their habits, Jesuits used forms of accommodation extremely similar to those they used in the missions overseas. Converting Muslim slaves in Naples or in Spain was conceived by Jesuits as an alternative and effective way to go on a mission “even among Turks,” as the Jesuit Formula of the Institute stated, despite never leaving European kingdoms for Ottoman lands. Located between the missions overseas, where Jesuits converted the “infidels” in distant lands, and the missions in Europe, where they attempted to save the souls of baptized people who lacked religious education, were “other Indies,” where Jesuits could encounter, convert, and baptize the “infidels” at home.

Abstract In its African colonies, the German colonial authorities of ten encountered marriages among the colonized population that did not correspond to the European bourgeois ideal of monogamous marriage. Colonial government and Christian missions saw polygamy as an obstacle to their colonial or missionary project. Using files from the German colonial administration in Cameroon, documents from the archive of the Basel Mission, and texts from missionary and colonial magazines, the article examines what precisely the colonial government and missions saw as the dangers of polygamy and what challenges arose in dealing with it. Overall, it is shown how essential monogamy was for the self-definition of the German colonial power. Criticism of polygamy served to distinguish Germany from the colonial other and to devalue its culture. Polygamy was considered non-Christian, non-European, non-civilized. In practice, however, this clarity blurred in the face of diverse challenges, so that missions and the colonial government tended to seek pragmatic and temporary solutions.

The transformational leadership approach emphasizes the leader`s ability to inspire and persuade individuals towards a shared vision, fostering a sense of commitment and empowerment within the organization. In the context of Christian missions, this leadership style is particularly relevant as it aligns with the principles of servant leadership and the mission to bring about positive change in communities. Transformational Leadership in Christian Mission Engagement involves four crucial components: idealized influence, inspirational motivation, intellectual stimulation, and individualized consideration. By inspiring and empowering individuals, leaders can foster a sense of ownership and commitment among team members, leading to increased motivation and dedication to the mission. Moreover, sustaining a transformational leadership approach requires ongoing effort and vigilance to ensure that the values and vision remain central to the mission`s activities. Therefore, the transformational leadership approach is instrumental in driving sustainable Christian mission engagement. By embodying fundamental principles such as inspiration, empowerment, and individualized support, leaders can cultivate a culture of commitment and resilience within their organizations. While challenges exist, the potential for a positive impact on mission outcomes makes transformational leadership an essential consideration for those involved in Christian missions.

The Hakka are a branch of the Chinese Han people, who immigrated from central China to Kwangtung (Guangdong 广东) Province. They have their own cultural norms in terms of language, lineage, distribution of work roles. The trans-national Basel Mission was headquartered in the Swiss city of Basel, near the Swiss–German border. The Basel Mission was distinguished among the missions to China by its rural Hakka Christian community. This article sets out to illustrate how the Basel Mission supported and maintained the rural Hakka Christianity community by integrating Christianity with Hakka cultural precepts. Previous Christian historiographical research has generally chosen not to emphasize Hakka cultural beliefs and practices. Examining the activities of the Basel Mission from the perspective of the indigenous Hakka culture, this article aims to enhance our understanding of the cultural precepts of receptors to shape the global enterprise of missionary society.

Culture awareness plays an important role in complex peacekeeping operations. Wide knowledge and information regarding to local culture help peacekeepers to avoid conflicts and misunderstandings which can lead to negative impact towards the mission’s effectiveness. This article focused on the significance of local culture awareness among Malaysian Peacekeepers which led to their successful missions’ accomplishment in the time given. This study has been conducted by using a semi-structured interview among 20 officers and personnel of Malaysian Armed Forces (maf) that have been deployed previously in several peacekeeping operations. Five cultural dimensions highlighted under the Civil-Military Interaction (cmi) theory were used and the findings shows that Malaysian peacekeepers had a high local cultural understanding that positively contributed to their success.

Abstract The success story of nineteenth-century Baptist missionary work among minority ethnic groups in Burma was one well-known facet of the early beginnings of modern Protestant missions. Behind this success was the extensive travel and evangelizing work done by native Karen Christians. In the face of the unexpected speed and zeal with which the Karen converts spread the gospel, to which I apply the term “culture of evangelism”, the Baptist mission in Burma was formed through an interactive process of continual self-reformulation, negotiation, and compromise on crucial matters such as baptism, ordination, self-support, division of roles, and language use. This has had far-reaching effects in shaping the Baptist churches in Myanmar today.

The article states the stratification of the university’s corporate culture as its traditional cultural base into the institutional and administrative (realizing the «third mission» of the university and bearing the tendency of its transformation into a business corporation) and the culture of the teaching staff (which has preserved the traditional university functions) and culture. There are suggested ways to eliminate this mismatch.The authors substantiate the role and significance of the ideological attitude of the university’s corporate culture to trust as a «glue» of its stratified cultural base, which maintains a balance between the traditional and modern university’s mission (the concept of «glue» is suggested by the Russian researcher L. Gudkov, who uses this term to denote a mechanism holding society together into a unity and a whole).The methodology of conceptual reasoning is based on a sociocultural approach that suggests considering changes of any social institution in the context of responding to the challenge of the globalized world of network structures and market relations.The article identifies the causes and consequences of lacking coordination in the cultural base of the university.Communicative rationality, which, as a style of scientific and philosophical thinking, initiates the construction of modern social ontologies, is proven to be a possible complementarity instrument («glue») of the two university cultures. It is argued that today trust reveals its not only psychological, but also ontological and epistemological significance, orienting both components of corporate culture towards their unity in implementing of the university’s research and educational missions together with its «third mission».The article originally defines the university’s corporate culture as focused on the formation of students’ trust as a key factor of sparing life in the modern world with its ideological, economic, and political tensions. On this basis, it is proposed to form a university management strategy and to restructure the educational process.

The nineteenth century was the great century for Western Christian missions. Missionaries were held in high esteem for their contribution to the “enlightenment” of non-Western peoples. But in the twentieth century, missions became the whipping boy of secular post-modern critics. In a drastic swing of the pendulum, the social sciences began to deny their own Enlightenment theories about “civilizing” the so-called primitive cultures. Absolute cultural relativism and cultural absolutism became the order of the day. Changing another culture in any way, especially the religion, was deemed cultural genocide. Missionaries came in for an exceptionally large share of the blame. Now, however, going beyond the post-modern critique, scholars who are converts of the modern missionary movement and others are calling for a more objective, fair evaluation of it. The history of missions has moved from respect to reproach to reinterpretation.

AbstractColeridge directed hisAids to Reflection(1825, 1831) to young men preparing for Christian vocations, missionaries in particular, and planned, but did not write, a seventh supplementary essay, which may be reconstructed from Coleridge's œuvres, to correct what he thought was inadequate preparation. Missionaries are educators whose preparation must include scientific biblical criticism: Christianity evolves with culture generally. Anthropography is required in order to foster inter-cultural exchange, including insight into a tradition's metaphors. Missionaries engage in proselytism, insists Coleridge, in the strictly limited sense of conversion through the exemplary conduct of the missionary as a fully realized human being.

The article is a qualitative research report written from the theoretical perspective of disability studies. Qualitative research, case study, carried out for the purposes of this article, concerns learning about disabilities acquired in husbands a war veterans by their wives. The place of research is military culture, while the aim is to understand the essence of what wives learned about the disability of their husbands during the entire process of adaptation to life with a disability after returning from a mission, against the background of life in military culture. The theoretical part of the article contains a review of world literature with an emphasis on defining acquired disability. The very phenomenon of acquiring disability by veterans during military missions and its background, i.e. the anthropological phenomenon of culture shock, were analyzed. The empirical part of this article is a qualitative report of 3 case studies and 3 voices of war veterans’ wives. The research question in this report was formulated as follows: What did the wives learn about the acquired disability of their own veterans’ husbands after their return from military missions abroad? Research results generated after coding and categorization analyzes (Gibbs, 2011) indicate categories that answer the main research question and sub-questions in the following contexts: (a) acquired disability, (b) military support, (c) veterans’ privileges (d) auto-marginalization of veterans (e) wives’ infirmity, (f) alcohol and domestic violence, (g) before suicide, (h) wives suggesting changes in the support of veterans with acquired disabilities. The results of the analyzes indicate that the wives learned about the symptoms and characteristics of their husbands’ disabilities (mental and physical) and, additionally, they learned about the secondary disability (auto-marginalization, alcohol or drug addiction, domestic violence, escalation of suicidal thoughts) during adaptation after military missions.

The church exists because there is a mission. Therefore, the living church should remain focused on the mission of evangelism. Evangelism is a top priority that must be done by the church in a wide dimension, to the ends of the earth. In reality, there are many churches that are not active in the worldwide evangelistic missionary movement. Why? Is it because the church doesn't want to be involved in the mission or because the church doesn't know about missions? Evangelism must be an ongoing movement. Evangelism is carried out cross-culturally both within the country itself and abroad where neglected tribes (STA) are still found. In an effort to maximize cross-cultural evangelism, the church needs to hold congregational member development continuously. Coaching is intended to change and equalize perspectives or perspectives on cross-cultural evangelism missions. Based on observations and interviews conducted with several church missionaries (TUG) of the POUK Ichtus Bumi Dirgantara Permai Bekasi, it was found that the obstacles to cross-cultural evangelism were not primarily the ethnic groups to be served, but the readiness of the envoys who would serve cross-culturally. These obstacles are mainly related to language, culture and life values that should be studied carefully before serving in these neglected tribes. By referring to the Bible, Acts 8:26-40, the principles and patterns of cross-cultural evangelism are found by studying the profile of Philip who preached the gospel across cultures.

In this paper, the activity of the Altai Spiritual Mission (Western Siberia) is considered from the standpoint of the methodology of the culturological approach, the axiological paradigm and the interdisciplinary features of regionalism. The semantics of the term "mission" is analyzed in line with the topics stated in the work. It is indicated that the institute of Spiritual Missions in the aspect of the Christianization of peoples arose in the XVI century, and the understanding of the "Spiritual Mission" as a special church preaching institute in the XIX century due to the creation of the Altai model for other missions. The work also describes the history of creation and its originality, analyzes the activities that led to the following results, social and cultural transformations: the transition of the autochthonous population to the Orthodox faith (sedentary lifestyle, benefits, indulgences), versatile arrangement and organization of life (cultivation of land, the order of household life), education (literacy), the creation of an array of ethnographic, cultural and linguistic works that retain their uniqueness and relevance for researchers of the cultural origins of this region to this day. Of particular note is the creation of alphabets and the compilation of alphabets, which made it possible to translate the Gospel and other religious works into local languages. All this work has led to the emergence and growth of educational institutions and the spread of Russian culture. Translation activity is invaluable, which led to the acquisition of the spiritual culture of the Altai ethnic groups to historicity and its infusion into the Russian one.

AbstractAdvancing the health of all members of the global community remains core to the mission of the infectious diseases profession. Training, research, healthcare-delivery, and other infectious diseases–related institutions play a central role in meeting this goal. The promotion of inclusion, diversity, access, and equity (IDA&E) is critical to harnessing the full range of human creativity, innovation, and talent necessary to realizing the education, research, patient care, and service missions that constitute the principal objectives of such institutions. Strong and positive institutional cultures and climates are essential to achieving these IDA&E goals. We discuss opportunity gaps that exist in leveraging institutional culture and climate to optimize IDA&E. We further identify effective strategies to address these gaps and achieve excellence in education, research, patient care, and service in infectious diseases and the broader healthcare and biomedical space. We discuss the importance of both local and global context in conceptualizing IDA&E to best achieve these aims.

The concept of human rights has evolved through three historical generations: liberty, equality, and now fraternity. Each generation of anthropologists, missionaries, and human rights advocates cultivated its own distinct mission and rhetoric. The current generation of a family of nations (fraternity) emphasizes the concept of group rights, as exemplified by the Draft Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples. For 50 years the Summer Institute of Linguistics has been laboring for the ethnic identity rights of indigenous peoples in language development and literacy.

This retrospective provides a brief history of Christian medical missions as the critical backdrop to understanding how missions in the 19th and 20th centuries paved the way for ethnographic work among non-Western culture groups, as well as provided insights into other cultures’ health and healing practices. Medical missions also brought biomedicine into the care systems of non-Western cultures and set the stage for understanding the importance of cultural knowledge in determinants of health and disease. These endeavors cannot be discounted as motivators for anthropologists to further engage the work of health and healing as these worked to understand other cultures and their needs. This retrospective also explores how the subdiscipline/specialization of medical anthropology became formalized, applied; and how critically important it became in contributing to medical knowledge and practice cross-culturally. Examples of modern-day giants of medical anthropology bring our attention forward and underscore their lasting contributions. The retrospective ends by encouraging Christian anthropologists to consider specializing in medical anthropology. For those in practice, it asks where they ‘abide’ today: where they can be located, given that there is no formal organization unique to them.

This article takes the perspective of “Shiwen-Chouchang”, and interprets the poetry and prose diplomacy between the Ming Dynasty and the Joseon Dynasty, as recorded in the “Annals of the Joseon Dynasty” and “Huanghua Collection”, during their diplomatic missions. The envoys sent by the two countries in both directions not only have to fulfill their regular mission as envoys, but also shoulder various tasks in politics, economy, and culture. During the mission, through exchanges and exchanges in the fields of literature, language, writing, calligraphy, painting, books and classics, Confucianism, etc., the envoys demonstrated their talents and also demonstrated the country’s cultural and moral etiquette. The poetry and prose diplomacy proposed through “Shiwen-Chouchang” not only compensates for political exchanges between the two sides, better solves political conflicts, strengthens friendly relations, fundamentally guarantees the healthy development of the two countries, but also deepens cultural exchanges between the two countries, making contributions to the dissemination of their cultures.

Abstract Introduction Up to 2 million people from the United States participate in short term medical mission trips to over 1000 missions annually with approximately 500 organizations spending $250 million annually in support of these trips. Depending on the mission, a wide variety of volunteers may be needed to support the effort, from multidisciplinary healthcare teams to translators and city planners. Moving past the romantic notion of “doing good”, it is imperative that participants follow a well-organized approach to trip preparation, delivery of care, and establishment of a sustainable plan when departing. Methods A review of existing literature was conducting to delineate the process to prepare outreach volunteers and the host country to maximize time and efforts. Key search terms included: medical and international mission, low-middle income country, medical and international outreach, medical volunteer, volunteer abroad. PubMed®, CINAHL®, MedlinePlus®, OVID®, and Google Scholar® were searched. Results Pre-trip information for participants should exceed the necessary logistics of finances, telecommunication, vaccinations, and travel arrangements. Preparation should address vital aspects of the host country, such as government structure, income, available medication and healthcare facilities, religion, weather, and available food sources. Sustainability mandates knowledge of and respect for skill set and host resources. Post trip evaluation is essential for participants to debrief about the physical, emotional and educational aspects of the mission. Evaluation by the host country provides critical information for ongoing support and future outreach. Missions should not disrupt local health and social services, but work to achieve productive and foundational outcomes. Conclusions Whether public good, private consumption or investment exchange, serious adverse consequences can result when there is poor alignment with host country needs. Research supported that isolated brief missions often do not have any impact on local poverty and struggling healthcare systems. Prioritizing local capacity building through sustainable educational, professional and appropriate financial resources, with recurring support is essential to achieving a long term positive impact. Efforts must avoid creating a culture of dependence, thereby perpetuating a power differential. Applicability of Research to Practice With the volume of outreach missions conducted and the large number of organizations and individuals involved in this effort annually, there is an enormous opportunity for research analyzing outcomes at a variety of intervals form the perspective of the volunteers, supporting organizations and the host countries. This data is crucial to refining efforts to truly achieve the greatest good.

Does culture pose significant threat to UN Peacekeeping Forces in their line of duty in conflict areas? Does it affect their role as peacekeepers in midst of conflicts? Peacekeeping is not an ordinary military assignment, like in war. Peacekeeping Operation requires certain skills, such as cross-culture competence and high cultural resilience. Hence, peacekeeping work must be understand as an activity that rely more on cooperation, integration from all related stakeholders, and coordination between UN Peacekeeping Mission with other parties, like civilians, government, police, humanitarian workers, mass media, etc. nowadays, the complexity of UN missions requires variation in their training methods. This paper will discuss several of training programs involving the entire component of peacekeeping forces, including their family, regarding to cross-cultural competence and cultural resilience.

L’objectif de cet article est de relever les définitions de ces quatre concepts dans la littérature en sciences de l’information ou dans des sciences connexes, le cas échéant.La revue de la littérature démontre que ces concepts font l’objet de théories divergentes. De plus, les sciences de l’information ne traitent pas d’un point de vue théorique des missions autres que l’information. Ces quatre concepts restent donc bien flous et insatisfaisants pour définir les missions des bibliothèques publiques.

Traditionally, universities are regarded as carrying two missions—teaching and research. Over later decades, in any case, they have been conjectured to donate more noteworthy consideration to a ‘third mission’—that of “contributing to the industry, the economy, the local region or the society. Universities have adopted academic entrepreneurship as the strategy to grow and influence the economy and society. Despite tremendous endeavours to grasp the third mission, universities still present extraordinary heterogeneity in their association and participation in academic entrepreneurship. This study aims to study academic entrepreneurship through the lens of strategic entrepreneurship while exploring the accountable factors of entrepreneurship orientation, entrepreneurship leadership, strategic management and organizational culture. This study promises that entrepreneurial orientation, entrepreneurship leadership, strategic management and organizational culture are imperative for the optimization of academic entrepreneurship. It is proposed that the right combination and availability of these variables will enable universities to bring forth a synergy to accelerate academic entrepreneurship. The implications and limitations of the study are presented.

In recent years, we can meet more and more often in various professional publications, magazines, conferences, but also in various reports in the media the term organizational culture. The fact is that gradually more and more organizations are dealing with issues of organizational culture because they have understood that organizational culture plays an important role in the life of organizations. And not only in formulating organizational strategy, setting goals, or making decisions, but also in fulfilling their mission, creating their image and overall functioning in today's dynamic times affected by deepening globalization. That is also why the author, in his research, deals with organizational culture, specifically, in the presented article he examines police culture. The author characterizes police culture as a specific type of organizational culture that fulfils important functions and missions in terms of police functioning. By analogy with other types of organizations, the author defines police culture as a set of socially typical views, attitudes, norms, and values that determine models of police behaviour, relations to society and the police organization. He points out that despite the generally similar characteristics with other cultures of the organization, there are certain specifics that distinguish the police culture from other organizations. It gives it uniqueness. It should be a priority for every organization to have a good organizational culture aimed at maximum efficiency and success. For this reason, it is important to know its current state by research and to evaluate its positive and negative aspects. The article deals with the theoretical basis of understanding key concepts such as organization, culture, subculture, and organizational culture. At the same time, it presents the theoretical basis for the study of this phenomenon in the environment of the Police Force.

AbstractWhat happens to dominant narratives and settled self-images of so-called peace nations when experiencing actual combat in out-of-area military missions? This question arises when studying the contemporary international engagement of small states that previously have mostly been engaged in peacekeeping with limited mandates and non-use of force restrictions. As today's international missions have altered radically, it is important to analyse narrative friction and transformation in small states with little prior experience of international war-fighting. This article addresses this lacuna by examining two small states and self-proclaimed peace nations – Sweden and Norway – in relation to their engagement in the International Security Assistance Force (ISAF), the NATO-led security mission to Afghanistan 2002–14. By examining the interplay and discursive struggle of two narratives — peace nation and military culture – this article finds that these narratives constantly constitute and reconstitute a small state's self-image and the boundaries for acceptable or even required behaviour. With altered principles regarding use of force there is an increased friction between the narratives. By addressing these frictions, the article contributes to the literature on small state international military engagement and develops and refines assumptions regarding the drivers and consequences of small state participation in out-of-area missions.

This article offers a missiological research model based on three key missiological concepts: missio Dei, christocentricity, and contextuality (MDCC, for short). The model is derived from a practical theology model that was developed by the Layola Institute of Ministry (LIM). The author refers to the new missiological model as the LIMM model, where the added ‘M’ represents missional action. Since the introduction of the term missio Dei, the focus has shifted from missions initiated and conducted by the church, to the one true mission – God’s mission. In the missio Dei, God sends his Son and the Spirit to the world, and through them sends people to the ends of the earth. At the same time, God is the sender and the content of the sending. The incarnation of culture is God’s message in every if great importance. The LIMM model is characterised by the three key missiological terms mentioned above. From defining the research topic, right through to the practical suggestions for an improved experience, the researcher is guided by these missiological principles. If a research topic does not correlate to MDCC principles, it is not suitable for missiological research and another field of theology should be considered.

This research aims to encourage the GPdI Siloam Kencong congregation to be called to be active in evangelizing missions. The lesson to be taught is taken by exposing the narrative of Jesus' conversation with the Samaritan woman in the Gospel of John. This passage is very abundant with various matters related to God's mission, including how to form and build a Biblical theology of evangelism. Yohanes presents a narrative in such depth because it touches on geography, identity, culture, polemic and so on. This is very relevant to the Indonesian context, especially for believers who have struggles to be personally involved in God's mission. This research resulted in several steps in building a biblical evangelism method. Keywords: Evangelism, Gospel of John, Jesus and the Samaritan Woman, Mission Theology

Organization is characterized by the different senses of culture and uniqueness that distinguish one’s entity from others. Culture plays an important role in organization as a good culture can provide organization support to achieve goals. Organizational culture acts as a guideline for an individual’s daily behavior that will influence the decision-making process and provide direction for leaders and members to achieve organizational goals. In its creation, organizational culture was built according to organization circumstances. Organizational culture has important roles in the maintenance and development of the organization’s vision and mission. Organizational culture is an essential tool in the improvement of organizational performance and member capability. Therefore, there is an need for the Karawitan Dance Activity Unit (UKTK) of Universitas Airlangga to project the state of the existing and expected culture of the organization. By conducting cultural mapping, existing visions and missions of an organization can be transformed. Organizational culture was measured by the Organizational Culture Assessment (OCA) method. The measurement is held by distributing instruments and contains 20 questions. The questionnaire was distributed to both leaders and members of the UKTK Airlangga University and its aim was to identify the expected culture of the university relative to the reality of culture. The results of the questionnaire showed that respondents felt the culture at the UKTK is of a mechanistic nature. Similarly, the expected culture of the UKTK is of a mechanistic nature. The compatibility between cultural reality and expectations in the UKTK supports organizational goals. This situation can generate good relationships between the leaders and members of the UKTK Airlangga University which results in harmony throughout the organization. The existing mechanistic organizational culture can be seen as a strategy by which to achieve the objectives of the UKTK in Airlangga University. The results of the study can also strengthen the organizational culture as it can be a powerful means by which to control and increase the consistent behavior of members of the organization. In addition, the awareness of the existing organizational culture can facilitate the implementation of work programs agreed upon by the UKTK organization of Airlangga University.

Abstract The prevention and compensation of work accidents and occupational diseases are among the main missions of the Social Security Fund of Senegal, like most social security institutions. The importance of this mission no longer needs to be demonstrated, when we know the serious consequences that these professional risks can cause when they occur: loss of life, mutilations, trauma, work stoppages, job losses, etc. … Therefore, the Social Security Fund has adopted a global strategy to reduce work accidents and occupational illnesses, by promoting a culture of prevention, a guarantee of improving the quality of life at work and increasing productivity companies. This strategy is supported internally by the Professional Risk Prevention Department. The missions consist in particular of monitoring the implementation of company policy regarding the prevention of occupational risks and its prerogatives relate to information, training of employers and workers, monitoring of the application of regulations in force, participation in the application of prevention methods in companies. This strategy developed by the Social Security Fund is based on the following three (03) principles: – ACT – CAPITALIZE – DEPLOY for better promotion of the safety culture in companies. To this end, several actions are being carried out towards stakeholders in the world of work. We can present some of them: - the installation of Sectoral Technical Committees (CTS); - The organization of the African Prevention Month each year; - The integration of occupational safety and health into professional and technical training; - the organization of Competitions on OHS initiatives and good practices for Students and Companies; - the establishment of the scientific council for the prevention of occupational diseases; - the popularization of professional risk management tools, for example Vision Zero, etc. Through the activities deployed, in collaboration with the Labor Administration; social partners and civil society, the Social Security Fund wishes to promote a secure environment at work throughout Senegal.

Abstract This article examines the writings of Finnish missionaries: what the missionaries wrote about local people and cultures and how the content of their writings changed during the latter part of the 20th century, which was a period of major political and cultural change in the countries where the missionaries worked. The data consists of 526 writings published in the major Finnish mission journal Suomen Lähetyssanomat during the years 1946-1989. The primary methodological approach is quantitative, and the data is mainly analysed in a descriptive manner. Statistical tests are utilized to show the association between independent and dependent variables. The results are interpreted with the help of the concept of otherness. Missionaries’ writings reveal a more positive attitude towards local people than local cultures, but during the study period a change towards a more positive attitude to culture can be detected. The longer the history of Finnish missions in a particular region, the more positive the missionaries’ attitudes towards local people are. During the study period, the problem-oriented descriptions of cultures shift to solution-oriented descriptions. These changes indicate efforts towards a positive interpretation of otherness. The study reveals the possibilities that quantitative analysis may open up for mission studies.

The purpose of the study is to provide empirical evidence about the under-researched area of university–government relations in building a culture of entrepreneurial initiatives inside the triple helix model in a rural region. The study deploys a qualitative case study research method based on the content analysis of project documentation and further internal documents both from universities and municipalities. The propositions in the research question are guided by the previous literature and were then analyzed through an “open coding” process to iteratively analyze, verify, and validate the results from the documents against the previous literature. Results presented in the case study are related both to the project of a municipality–university innovation partnership, as well as the historic development of the university in its three missions, and, related to the important third mission, themes relevant for the project. In addition, a “toolkit” of relevant project activities is presented against the major identified themes, major project stakeholders, as well as relevant Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Universities should look beyond a purely economic contribution and should augment all three missions (teaching, research, engagement) by considering social, environmental, and economic aspects of its activities. Instead of considering a government’s role solely as that of a regulator, a much more creative and purposeful cooperation between university and government is possible for creating a regional culture of entrepreneurial initiatives in a rural region.

For the past two decades, microbial monitoring of the International Space Station (ISS) has relied on culture-dependent methods that require return to Earth for analysis. This has a number of limitations, with the most significant being bias towards the detection of culturable organisms and the inherent delay between sample collection and ground-based analysis. In recent years, portable and easy-to-use molecular-based tools, such as Oxford Nanopore Technologies’ MinION™ sequencer and miniPCR bio’s miniPCR™ thermal cycler, have been validated onboard the ISS. Here, we report on the development, validation, and implementation of a swab-to-sequencer method that provides a culture-independent solution to real-time microbial profiling onboard the ISS. Method development focused on analysis of swabs collected in a low-biomass environment with limited facility resources and stringent controls on allowed processes and reagents. ISS-optimized procedures included enzymatic DNA extraction from a swab tip, bead-based purifications, altered buffers, and the use of miniPCR and the MinION. Validation was conducted through extensive ground-based assessments comparing current standard culture-dependent and newly developed culture-independent methods. Similar microbial distributions were observed between the two methods; however, as expected, the culture-independent data revealed microbial profiles with greater diversity. Protocol optimization and verification was established during NASA Extreme Environment Mission Operations (NEEMO) analog missions 21 and 22, respectively. Unique microbial profiles obtained from analog testing validated the swab-to-sequencer method in an extreme environment. Finally, four independent swab-to-sequencer experiments were conducted onboard the ISS by two crewmembers. Microorganisms identified from ISS swabs were consistent with historical culture-based data, and primarily consisted of commonly observed human-associated microbes. This simplified method has been streamlined for high ease-of-use for a non-trained crew to complete in an extreme environment, thereby enabling environmental and human health diagnostics in real-time as future missions take us beyond low-Earth orbit.

Maurice Leenhardt (1878-1954), est missionnaire de la Société des Missions Évangéliques de Paris en Nouvelle-Calédonie et ethnologue, ami de Lucien Lévy-Bruhl et de Marcel Mauss. Tout en étant inséré dans la mentalité coloniale des années 1930, il développe une conception originale de la mission chrétienne. Gilles Vidal montre comment, pour Leenhardt, la conversion spirituelle passe d’abord par une prise de conscience morale qui élève tout être, sans distinction de « race », à la dignité humaine. Il faut pour cela mobiliser les ressources des sciences sociales afin de parvenir à une connaissance authentique de la culture de l’autre. Leenhardt soutient une position humaniste et idéaliste qui prétend découvrir l’« âme » de l’autre et articuler ainsi « harmonieusement » mission et colonisation.

On the eve of the 1917 Bolshevik Revolution, the Russian Orthodox Church had at least nine missions operating among Siberia's indigenous peoples. The Red victory in the ensuing civil war led to the elimination of all missionary activity, whose resumption was possible only after the fall of the Communist regime seventy years later. The few accounts of Christian missions published in the USSR were tendentious in the extreme. Only in the post-Communist era have scholars in the former Soviet Union been free to explore the rich archival and journalistic resources left by the missionaries. Anatoliy Ablazhei's article was chiefly addressed to scholars in Russia. It explores the extent to which the newly available missionary accounts are useful sources for contemporary scholars investigating native religion and cosmology. His work is reproduced here in translation for several reasons. It exemplifies the new wave of Russian scholarship about missions history, giving us a glimpse of the mass of documentary material available for researchers to use. Its critique of Russian Orthodox perceptions of native religion and the imperfect methods employed to spread Christianity in Siberia provides us with material from a mission field little known in the outside world. This information can prove useful for comparative missiological investigations. Above all, however, its value lies in its contribution to the ongoing debates about contextualization and syncretism, the validity of the Gospel for all peoples, and the appropriation of Christianity by the world's indigenous peoples. It exemplifies the errors of ignorance often committed by outsiders trying to spread the Gospel within a thoroughly alien culture. As Terence Ranger reminded us in the first Adrian Hastings Memorial Lecture at Leeds University in November 2002, authentic Christianity is indeed possible among indigenous peoples. The Holy Spirit can inspire a transformation of their lives and culture, without an excess of Eurocentric accretions.1

Elizabeth Kryder-Reid examines the origins of California's mission gardens and explores their reception and their contribution to cultural memory. The evidence presented in "Perennially New": Santa Barbara and the Origins of the California Mission Garden shows that the iconic image of the mission garden was created a century after the founding of the missions in the late eighteenth century, and two decades before the start of the Mission Revival architectural style. The locus of their origin was Mission Santa Barbara, where in 1872 a Franciscan named Father Romo, newly arrived from a posting in Jerusalem, planted a courtyard garden reminiscent of the landscapes that he had seen during his travels around the Mediterranean. This invented garden fostered a robust visual culture and rich ideological narratives, and it played a formative role in the broader cultural reception of Mission Revival garden design and of California history in general. These discoveries have significance for the preservation and interpretation of these heritage sites.
