This paper asks whether public commemorations in contemporary Japan are post-secular or not. More precisely, it investigates the postwar history of the relationship between such commemorations and the principle of keeping religion and government separate, as embodied in the constitution. Referring to several contemporary cases, I provide an overview of the discourses and actual conditions of the separation of religion and state at Chidorigafuchi National Cemetery (Chidorigafuchi Kokuritsu Senbotsusha Boen 千鳥ヶ淵国立戦没者墓苑) and Yasukuni Shrine (Yasukuni Jinja 靖国神社). In conclusion, I point out on one hand that the non-denominational expressions seen in Chidorigafuchi and other facilities show a distinctive kind of religious expression. On the other hand, I underscore that the excessive avoidance of religious participation by government officials derives from the Yasukuni issue and related legal trials. I explain the relationship of those phenomena in terms of two types of secularization: natural secularization and artificial secularization.

The article proposes the formulation of the problem of the correlation of the level and direction of education with emotional intelligence and leadership potential. Leadership is seen as the ability to influence individuals and groups to achieve company’s goals, based on emotional intelligence. The conceptual basis of the study of emotional leadership is proposed as the basis for the success of an organization at all levels and the need for leadership development. The basic approaches for understanding emotional intelligence and its basic models are given. The author describes the relevance of the research topic for the modern world. The results of an empirical study are presented, during which interconnections of three main components were established: emotional intelligence, educational level and leadership potential. The necessity of modern educational programs of managerial education for managers is substantiated. The prospect of further research on the problem of the development of emotional leadership is determined.

Resumo – No Chile, o Serviço Social, no período da Reconceituação, apresentou fortes mudanças nos seus fundamentos teórico-metodológicos e ético-políticos, mudanças que estavam sintonizadas com o cenário político de alta efervescência da luta de classes. Na virada da década de 1960 à década de 1970, as forças organizativas da classe trabalhadora – partidos e movimentos sociais de esquerda – levaram o Chile a ser o primeiro país no mundo em que uma coalizão com um programa de construção do socialismo conquistou o governo pela via eleitoral. Neste cenário, o Serviço Social chileno estabeleceu relações e posicionamentos, produzindo uma rica reflexão de docentes, discentes e profissionais em relação à formação profissional e às ações interventivas. Neste artigo, explicitaremos reflexões iniciais da conjuntura chilena do governo da Unidade Popular (UP) e as relações do Serviço Social com as organizações e movimentos sociais, as quais serão evidenciadas pela análise dos Trabalhos de Conclusão de Curso (TCCs)[1] e dos artigos da Revista de Trabajo Social da PUC. Palavras-Chave: Unidade Popular; Serviço Social; Reconceituação; lutas sociais; Chile.  Abstract–Social work in Chile during the Reconceptualization period presented deep changes, in a context of high social effervescence. At the turn of the 1960s to the 1970s, the consolidation of the working class and left-wing parties led Chile to become the first country in the world to conquerthe government by electoral means, with a program building towards socialism. In a context of intensification of social struggles, Chilean social work established relationships and stances, producing a rich reflection of teachers, students, and professionals in relation to professional training and intervention. This article is the first delivery of results of an ongoing research that reviews the relationship of Social Service with social movements and struggles based on the analysis of final papers for graduation and articles fromRevista de Trabajo Social, from Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile. Keywords: popular unity; Social Service;reconceptualization;social struggles; Chile. [1]A pesquisa nos TCCs da Universidad de Chile teve a colaboração dos discentes de Trabajo Social: Ismael Quinteros, Denisse Carvajal, Ankari Canales e Javiera Ramírez.

The relationship of human development to leadership growth and organizational learning is becoming more significant as organizations recognize the value of skilled leadership. In order to foster collective intelligence and innovation in groups, leadership throughout an organization benefits from the understanding of processes involved in collectives or groups. The idea of creating a learning organization is gaining more attention as organizations strive to adapt and respond to a changing global environment in fast paced and demanding arenas. It is now becoming a needed skill to build a learning organization as a leadership competency. Those organizations that place learning as a priority will have an advantage over those that fail to learn and adapt. In order to understand how adult development is connected to organizational learning the work of Kegan (1982), Argyris (1992) and Senge (1990) will be examined. In addition the concept of dialogue, for learning, and creating culture will be explored in order to gain insight for developing leadership in organizational learning, Schein (2004); Isaacs (1996). Because of the growing complexity of the global environment, developing leadership in the organization is becoming more sophisticated in the ways in which learning is approached and orchestrated and therefore a greater understanding of leadership development is needed.

The Mesozoic-Cenozoic coral Order Scleractinia has been suggested to have originated or evolved (1) by direct descent from the Paleozoic Order Rugosa or (2) by the development of a skeleton in members of one of the anemone groups that probably have existed throughout Phanerozoic time. In spite of much work on the subject, advocates of the direct descent hypothesis have failed to find convincing evidence of this relationship. Critical points are:(1) Rugosan septal insertion is serial; Scleractinian insertion is cyclic; no intermediate stages have been demonstrated. Apparent intermediates are Scleractinia having bilateral cyclic insertion or teratological Rugosa.(2) There is convincing evidence that the skeletons of many Rugosa were calcitic and none are known to be or to have been aragonitic. In contrast, the skeletons of all living Scleractinia are aragonitic and there is evidence that fossil Scleractinia were aragonitic also. The mineralogic difference is almost certainly due to intrinsic biologic factors.(3) No early Triassic corals of either group are known. This fact is not compelling (by itself) but is important in connection with points 1 and 2, because, given direct descent, both changes took place during this only stage in the history of the two groups in which there are no known corals.
