For better or worse, the information and communication revolution has transformed our economic, cultural, and political world. On an individual scale, many of the traditional social, political, and cultural habits of mind and ways of being that evolved under the regime of the clock are changing rapidly, including the way individuals save, spend, and optimize time. At the organizational level, the pacing of innovation, levels of production, and new product development, are no longer temporally fixed due to the effects of living in a networked society and in the networked economy. 24/7 brings together leading thinkers from a variety of disciplines to analyze the differing relationships to time in an accelerated society. Offering much-needed insight and perspective into new issues and problems, this unique volume is the first to offer a wide range of cutting-edge thought on the new economic, cultural, and political world of the networked society. The book includes contributions from the leading scholars in this area, such as Barbara Adam, Mike Crang, Thomas Hylland Erikson, and Geert Lovink.

This handbook explores the multifaceted ethical dimensions of mindfulness, from early Buddhist sources to present-day Western interpretations of mindfulness. It takes a modern ethical approach to the study of mindfulness, and traces contemporary mindfulness practice from solitary journey to the global whole. Noted practitioners, teachers, scholars, and other professionals lend diverse perspectives to the debate over the moral content of mindfulness and its status as religious, secular, or post-secular practice. Chapters offer new views on the roots of mindfulness in Buddhist moral teachings, ethical mindfulness in interpersonal relationships, and the necessity of ethics in mindfulness-based education and therapy. Chapters also discuss current debates concerning the ethics of mindfulness across the applied fields of education and pedagogy, business, economics, and the environment.Topics featured in this handbook include:· Mindfulness as the true foundation of anaturally ethical life. · Mindfulness and its impact on emotional life, interpersonal relationships, and forgiveness. · How Buddhist ethics informs spiritual practice across the three main vehicles (yanas) of Buddhism and its relation to mindfulness. · “McMindfulness”, or the mass marketization and commodification of mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs).· How an ethic of interdependence formed by Buddhist principles and mindfulness practices can help address the environmental crisis.The Handbook of Ethical Foundations of Mindfulness is a must-have resource for researchers, clinicians/professionals, and graduate students in psychology, complementary and alternative medicine, and social work as well as occupational and rehabilitation therapy, nursing, philosophy, business management, and teachers of Buddhism and meditation.

This handbook explores mindfulness philosophy and practice as it functions in today’s socioeconomic, cultural, and political landscape. Chapters discuss the many ways in which classic concepts and practices of mindfulness clash, converge, and influence modern theories and methods, and vice versa. Experts across many disciplines address the secularization and commercialization of Buddhist concepts, the medicalizing of mindfulness in therapies, and progressive uses of mindfulness in education. The book addresses the rise of the, “mindfulness movement”, and the core concerns behind the critiques of the growing popularity of mindfulness. It covers a range of dichotomies, such as traditional versus modern, religious versus secular, and commodification versus critical thought and probes beyond the East/West binary to larger questions of economics, philosophy, ethics, and, ultimately, meaning.Featured topics include:A compilation of Buddhist meditativepractices.Selling mindfulness and the marketing of mindful products.A meta-critique of mindfulness critiques - from McMindfulness to critical mindfulnessMindfulness-based interventions in clinical psychology and neuroscience.Corporate mindfulness and usage in the workplace.Community-engaged mindfulness and its role in social justice.The Handbook of Mindfulness is a must-have resource for clinical psychologists, complementary and alternative medicine professionals/practitioners, neuroscientists, and educational and business/management leaders and policymakers as well as related mental health, medical, and educational professionals/practitioners.

Achtsamkeit ist derzeit in aller Munde. Für viele gehört sie schon längst zum Mainstream, einige bezeichnen sie sogar als "Revolution". Doch was, wenn Achtsamkeit gar nicht die Welt verändert? Ronald E. Purser wagt die Antithese: Achtsamkeit ist zu einer banalen Form von Spiritualität im Kapitalismus geworden – einer, die aktiv sozialen und politischen Wandel verhindert und stattdessen dem Neoliberalismus den Weg ebnet. Purser beleuchtet, wie Konzerne, Schulen, Regierungen und Militär sich Achtsamkeit als Mittel für soziale Kontrolle und Ruhigstellung angeeignet haben. Er hinterfragt das gängige Narrativ, nach dem Stress vor allem selbstgeschaffen und eigenständig lösbar sei und Achtsamkeit das Allheilmittel. Mit beißender Kritik rüttelt er an den Grundfesten, auf denen die Vermarktung der sogenannten Revolution basiert. Denn um das wahrhaft revolutionäre Potenzial von Achtsamkeit zu entdecken, müssen wir den Neoliberalismus erst überwinden.

Tras cosechar el apoyo de todo tipo de celebridades y ver a monjes, neurocientíficos y gurús de la meditación compartir mesa con los directores ejecutivos de algunas de las empresas más poderosas del planeta en el Foro Económico Mundial de Davos, no cabe duda de que el mindfulness se ha convertido ya en una tendencia mayoritaria. Algunos incluso lo han llamado una revolución. Pero ¿y si, en vez de cambiar el mundo, el mindfulness se hubiese convertido en una forma banal de espiritualidad capitalista que pone trabas a la transformación social y política y de hecho refuerza el statu quo neoliberal? Ronald Purser desenmascara en McMindfulness la autodenominada «revolución mindfulness», mostrando cómo las empresas, las escuelas, los gobiernos e incluso el ejército han convertido esta práctica de raíces milenarias en una herramienta para el control y la pacificación social. Con una crítica vivaz y certera, Purser desmonta los mitos en los que se apoyan sus vendedores y confronta la narrativa que nos hace responsables del estrés al que estamos sometidos y convierte al mindfulness en la cura para todo soslayando las causas materiales de nuestro creciente malestar.
