Item type:Publication, SmilingThis chapter delves into the intricate relationship between smiles, laughter, and human reactions to humor, examining the historical and modern perspectives on these expressions. Traditionally, smiling and laughing were seen as distinct in their moral implications, with smiling often celebrated as classy and tasteful, while laughter was deemed excessive and unpleasant. Recent advancements in neuroscience and psychology, however, challenge this conventional wisdom by revealing different organic underpinnings for these actions and unveiling various types of smiles and laughter. Drawing upon what I call the classical theory of laughter (CTL) and the modern theory of laughter (MTL), I will first explore how our understanding of these phenomena has been reshaped. Then I will argue that despite these transformations, the classical account regarding humoristic laughter remains relevant, and I will highlight the enduring moral implications of these expressions in light of contemporary scientific discoveries. ©The author ©Springer. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Classical Islamic PhilosophyThis chapter explores the role of humor (hazl/muzāḥ) and laughter (ḍāḥik) within the classical Islamic intellectual tradition with special emphasis on the philosophical approach. It provides, first, an overview of some relevant studies dealing with humor and laughter in the Qurʾān and the ḥādīth materials. Then, it deals with joking and laughter in one of the most prominent Islamic theologians, namely, al-Ghazālī. Finally, it moves on to a philosophical approach to humor, joking, and laughter. Even though philosophers in Islamic lands did not treat the various manifestations of humor systematically, in several works they expressed their views in this regard usually in the context of ethical and educational discussions on the shaping of moral character, self-control, the psychology of emotions, and the moral role of poetry. I collect, perhaps for the first time, references on humor and its manifestations from the philosophical works of al-Kindī, al-Abū Bakr Rāzī, al-Fārābī, the Syriac Christian Jacobite Yaḥyā ibn ʿAdī, Miskawayh, and Avicenna. The chapter concludes with a brief comparison between the different approaches to humor and laughter within the Islamic intellectual tradition. ©The author ©Springer. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, Greenhushing and Socialhushing: Two Steps Forward and One Step Back?Leaders and decision-makers around the world have been determined to achieve sustainable development for decades. Despite the efforts and advancements, there is still a long way to go to ensure long-term responsible growth and development. Organizations play an important role in the path toward progress; however, there are many that mislead their stakeholders or are choosing not to disclose their practices, also known as hushing. How do greenhushing and socialhushing impact stakeholders’ perceptions and decision-making, and the achievement of global sustainable development? This conceptual study contributes to literature on corporate social responsibility, stakeholder behavior, and sustainable development. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, The Paradox of Sustainable Living and Luxury Lifestyles: A Case Study on the Environmental Cost of Luxury ConsumptionAir pollution poses a serious and urgent threat to life on Earth, with wide-ranging impacts on both people and the planet. At the heart of this crisis is the burning of fossil fuels, which drives greenhouse gas emissions and leads to severe environmental and social consequences. One of the most pressing challenges today is understanding which groups contribute most to this problem, especially when it comes to lifestyle choices and energy use. This study explores the link between luxury lifestyles and environmental degradation, focusing on the Indian context. It examines how socioeconomic differences influence the level of fossil fuel consumption, particularly among wealthier groups whose excessive use of energy and resources contributes significantly to pollution and climate change. The research aims to highlight the environmental costs of luxury living and the urgent need to rethink consumption patterns for the sake of future generations. Using a multifaceted approach, the study includes an in-depth analysis of fossil fuel use globally, a comparison between high-income and low-income consumption habits, and an evaluation of the environmental and quality-of-life impacts tied to luxury. Findings show that affluent populations have a disproportionately large ecological footprint, especially in sectors like electricity and transport. This report concludes by offering recommendations to policymakers, businesses, and advertisers to raise public awareness and encourage more sustainable lifestyles. The goal is to reduce the environmental damage linked to luxury consumption and promote a more equitable and eco-friendly future. © The authors © Emerald. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
