Название: Historicizing Fear: Ignorance, Vilification, and Othering ISBN: 1646420012 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781646420018 Издательство: Неизвестно Цена: 29380.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: Historicizing Fear is a historical interrogation of the use of fear as a tool to vilify and persecute groups and individuals from a global perspective, offering an unflinching look at racism, fearful framing, oppression, and marginalization across human history.The book examines fear and othering from a historical context, providing a better understanding of how power and oppression is used in the present day.
Contributors ground their work in the theory of Othering--the reductive action of labeling a person as someone who belongs to a subordinate social category defined as the Other--in relation to historical events, demonstrating that fear of the Other is universal, timeless, and interconnected. Chapters address the music of neo-Nazi white power groups, fear perpetuated through the social construct of black masculinity in a racially hegemonic society, the terror and racial cleansing in early twentieth-century Arkansas, the fear of drug-addicted Vietnam War veterans, the creation of fear by the Tang Dynasty, and more.
Timely, provocative, and rigorously researched, Historicizing Fear shows how the Othering of members of different ethnic groups has been used to propagate fear and social tension, justify state violence, and prevent groups or individuals from gaining equality. Broadening the context of how fear of the Other can be used as a propaganda tool, this book will be of interest to scholars and students of history, anthropology, political science, popular culture, critical race issues, social justice, and ethnic studies, as well as the general reader concerned with the fearful framing prevalent in politics.

Non-knowledge should not be simply regarded as the opposite of knowledge, but as complementary to it: each derives its character and meaning from the other and from their interaction. Knowledge does not colonize the space of ignorance in the progressive march of science; rather, knowledge and ignorance are mutually shaped in social and political domains of partial, shifting, and temporal relationships. This volume’s ethnographic analyses provide a theoretical frame through which to consider the production and reproduction of ignorance, non-knowledge, and secrecy, as well as the wider implications these ideas have for anthropology and related disciplines in the social sciences and humanities.

Автор: Wasty Sulaiman Название: Degeneration of Public Services: A Strategic Commitment to Ignorance ISBN: 1543963080 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781543963083 Издательство: Неизвестно Рейтинг: Цена: 11030.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: The book argues that the delivery of effective, efficient, and equitable public services to the citizens is essentially a Human Rights issue. Yet, and especially since the 1970s, there has been a pervasive and constant denying of the concept of Public Good. This negation of this notion emanates from a variety of factors: indifference, callousness, bigotry, hatred, xenophobia, lack of education, and Ignorance. These dangerous trends, if not challenged and rectified, will soon lead to the demise of the American dream and the country's purported exceptionalism. Given this basic premise, the State has a moral, legal, political, social, and economic obligation to its citizens--particularly to the downtrodden, vulnerable, and marginalized sections of the population-- from the preservation of fundamental rights to the maintenance of law and order and onward to the demonstration of transparency and accountability in everyday functions.The issues being raised are by no means exhaustive and the debate can be endless. This book does not claim to provide answers to the current predicament. Instead, it is intended to provoke a discussion of where we have been and what can be done.

Автор: P. Nicole King, Kate Drabinski, Joshua Clark Davis Название: Baltimore Revisited: Stories of Inequality and Resistance in a US City ISBN: 0813594022 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780813594026 Издательство: Mare Nostrum (Eurospan) Рейтинг: Цена: 125400.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: Nicknamed both "Mobtown" and "Charm City" and located on the border of the North and South, Baltimore is a city of contradictions. From media depictions in The Wire to the real-life trial of police officers for the murder of Freddie Gray, Baltimore has become a quintessential example of a struggling American city. Yet the truth about Baltimore is far more complicated—and more fascinating. To help untangle these apparent paradoxes, the editors of Baltimore Revisited have assembled a collection of over thirty experts from inside and outside academia. Together, they reveal that Baltimore has been ground zero for a slew of neoliberal policies, a place where inequality has increased as corporate interests have eagerly privatized public goods and services to maximize profits. But they also uncover how community members resist and reveal a long tradition of Baltimoreans who have fought for social justice. The essays in this collection take readers on a tour through the city's diverse neighborhoods, from the Lumbee Indian community in East Baltimore to the crusade for environmental justice in South Baltimore. Baltimore Revisited examines the city's past, reflects upon the city's present, and envisions the city's future.
