Описание: Contemporary Practices of Citizenship in Asia and the West: Care of the Self examines urban communities and societies in Asia and the West to shed much-needed light on issues that have emerged as the world experiences its new urban turn. An urbanized world should be an improving place, one that is better to live in, one where humans can flourish. This collection of essays examines contemporary practices of care of the self in cities in Asia and the West, including challenges to citizenship and even the right to the city itself. Written by a range of academics from different backgrounds (from architecture and urbanism, anthropology, social science, psychology, gender studies, history, and philosophy), their trans- and multidisciplinary approaches shed valuable light on what are sometimes quite old problems, leading to fresh perspectives and new ways of dealing with them. One thing that unites all of these papers is their people-centred approach, because, after all, a city is its people.

Автор: Paolo Bianchini, Roberto Sani Название: Textbooks and Citizenship in modern and contemporary Europe ISBN: 3034313357 ISBN-13(EAN): 9783034313353 Издательство: Peter Lang Рейтинг: Цена: 81430.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: The essays in this book are focused on the production and the use of textbooks in different countries and different periods of European history. By indicating some particularly important moments in the evolution of textbooks, they allow a better understanding of the educational history and of some other related topics: the history of school subjects mainly reconstructed through the contents offered to students at various levels of education; the educational and cultural policies that the states have continued through and what is still one of the most powerful means of training and orientation of public opinion: the school. The common source to all the essays collected here is the educational publishing. All authors have analyzed books, authors, publishers, users of manuals in limited contexts and moments in the history of education in different countries, in the attempt to study it through the real materials used daily in classes and not simply on teaching methods and pedagogical theories.

Wayne Ross Название: Rethinking Citizenship: A Theory and Practice of Contemporary Critical Education ISBN: 144113770X ISBN-13(EAN): 9781441137708 Издательство: Bloomsbury Academic Цена: 47520.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: Are we, as educators, preparing students to be effective citizens in a society that no longer is? Rethinking Citizenship argues that recent technological shifts and changes have fundamentally altered society. Today's technological change means a difference in the very definition of society and is associated increasingly with the possibilities, problematics, and interpretations of globalization and of neoliberal and neoconservative cultural economics, some of today's most significant and contested concepts.With respect to critical pedagogy, these shifts present both problems and possibilities, specifically with respect to social justice. What is meaningful citizenship in an age of separated connectedness or connected separation? What are the implications of these technological developments for critical pedagogy-inspired citizenship education? How might mechanisms such as surveillance and spectacle help us understand contemporary society and its imperatives for citizenship and citizenship education? In light of these issues, Vinson and Ross brilliantly work towards a contemporary critical pedagogy and its implications for citizenship education.
Whether motivated by humanitarianism or concern over "porous" borders, dominant commentary on migration in Europe has consistently focused on clandestine border crossings. Much less, however, is known about the everyday workings of immigration law inside borders. Drawing on in-depth ethnographic fieldwork in Italy, one of Europe's biggest receiving countries, Rules, Paper, Status moves away from polarized depictions to reveal how migration processes actually play out on the ground. Anna Tuckett highlights the complex processes of inclusion and exclusion produced through encounters with immigration law.
The statuses of "legal" or "illegal," which media and political accounts use as synonyms for "good" and "bad," "worthy" and "unworthy," are not created by practices of border-crossing, but rather through legal and bureaucratic processes within borders devised by governing states. Taking migrants' interactions with immigration regimes as its starting point, this book sheds light on the productive nature of legal and bureaucratic encounters and the unintended consequences they produce. Rules, Paper, Status argues that successfully navigating Italian immigration bureaucracy, which is situated in an immigration regime that is both exclusionary and flexible, requires and induces culturally specific modes of behavior. Exclusionary laws, however, can transform this social and cultural learning into the very thing that endangers migrants' right to live in the country.
