Although missio Dei—the mission of God—has been a burning theme in missiology since the end of the twentieth century, a key verse, John 3:16, has been widely neglected in missiology until today. Yet, John 3:16 reveals missio Dei as the triune God’s salvific activities in the world and shows us the very motivation for missio Dei: God’s Radical Love, a love so vast, transcultural, and universal that no English words can translate the Hebrew. Three questions are explored herein: How does God’s Radical Love in John 3:16 justify God’s motivation for missio Dei as the work of the triune God in the Old Testament? What does God really plan to achieve in missio Dei? And how can missio Dei be applied by Christians in the twenty-first century? Based on his own experiences, the author specifically explores how Messianic Jewish congregations in Israel could respond to and participate in missio Dei, with the hope that thoughtful readers may apply this study to their own contexts, to engage their own congregations with a deeper understanding of God’s Radical Love in missio Dei.
Chambers, Nuangjamnong, and their contributors look at how the development of the beer industry in East Asia presents a unique opportunity for understanding the region’s political economy. Asia is both the world’s largest beer-consuming and beer-producing region, and the fastest growing beer market. Per-capita consumption is lower than Europe, but catching up fast.

This book examines the role of corporate structure, including the role of corporate headquarters, in the success of large firms. It considers these issues in relation to large global corporations, thereby providing a 'benchmark', which is then used as a contrast in a discussion of corporate structure and the role of corporate headquarters within large Chinese firms, many of which have evolved from former government ministries. It includes a detailed case-study of firms in the crucially important oil and petro-chemical sector. Overall, the book shows what a hugely competitive battle China's emerging 'national champions' face with their global competitors, and puts forward policy implications both for large Chinese firms and for the Chinese government concerning how business systems should be reformed further still in order to construct globally competitive large industrial corporations.
Looking beyond the horizon, this book presents a blueprint for putting the latest flexible working practices and new communications technology to work to radically improve business.
