Описание: Many people want to help bring about changes in their neighborhoods, workplaces, and communities. Leaders and scholars of change efforts are likewise eager for insights into what makes some organizations and coalitions capable of building and exercising power. Why are some groups successful in
making changes in policies and systems and in sustaining their momentum over time, while others struggle or never really get off the ground?

With Community Power and Empowerment, Brian D. Christens brings the most comprehensive analysis of empowerment theory yet conducted to bear on these questions, taking aim at many of the longstanding weaknesses and ambiguities of empowerment theory, research, and practice. For example, one major
hindrance is that most notions of empowerment have not been coherently connected with community power. In addition, research has emphasized psychological aspects of empowerment over organizational processes, and has neglected community empowerment processes to an even greater extent. By linking
empowerment and community power, Christens constructs a holistic framework for assessing and comparing community-driven change efforts. This book offers new guidance for inquiries into outcomes and impacts of empowerment processes on health and well-being, providing a resource for researchers,
organizational leaders, practitioners, and anyone interested in collective action for change.

Описание:

This book identifies and examine the changing roles of Nigerian women: in the family, educational attainment and society as experienced and expressed by a sample of educated, Nigerian women. Five of the participants were children caught in Biafran (Nigerian) war and their education was interrupted during the war. All struggle to gain education as girls and women growing up in Nigeria in families with sometimes limited resources. The book is based on the assumption that changes are taking place at all levels of Nigerian society, and that these changes are reflected in the way Nigerian women think and express views about themselves and their extended families. Nine Nigerian women resident in Egypt, were interviewed in depth using the 'topical life history' method to reveal their attitudes and perceptions concerning the woman's role in the family. In lengthy, free form, non-directive interviews, the participants recount their life histories from small children to the present day, and in this process comment and reveal their feelings about personal, family and social issues. Based on a literature review some eight hypotheses are identified and examined concerning these issues and the participants' views about them. The response data are grouped under the hypotheses and analyzed. Conclusions suggest changing role patterns of women as expressed by these women from lower- and middle-class families, concerning education male and female children, bearing progeny, polygamy, earning income to provide for the family, marriage, male domination and influences and pressures from the extended family.

Описание:

YouTube has undergone significant changes since its beta launch in 2005, existing today as a profit-seeking business venture that endeavours to combine politics, entertainment, and profitability. This book examines the consequences of a focus on maximizing audiences and attaining revenue for the role of YouTube videos aimed at the promotion of political discussion and citizen engagement. Drawing on extensive analysis of YouTube content and affordances, the author challenges the idea that the use of YouTube for political discussion has levelled access to the public sphere, contending that the professionalization of campaigning and political action on YouTube brings making political videos closer to the realm of political marketing. Given the extent to which blocking and take-down practices by governmental order have affected the company's image as a partner of activism and a supporter of free expression, The Politics of YouTube explores whether there is room for further political empowerment of users and greater scope for YouTube to contribute to enhanced forms of democracy. A rigorous exploration of questions of sociality, surveillance and sousveillance, copyright, humor and political engagement in the digital sphere, this book will appeal to social scientists with interests in science and technology studies, media and communication, politics and the public sphere.
