Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The French revolts of May 1968, the largest general strike in twentieth-century Europe, were among the most famous and colourful episodes of the twentieth century. Julian Bourg argues that during the subsequent decade the revolts led to a remarkable paradigm shift in French thought - the concern for revolution in the 1960s was transformed into a fascination with ethics. Challenging the prevalent view that the 1960s did not have any lasting effect, From Revolution to Ethics demonstrates that intellectuals and activists turned to ethics as the touchstone for understanding interpersonal, institutional, and political dilemmas. In absorbing and scrupulously researched detail Bourg explores the developing ethical fascination as it emerged among student Maoists courting terrorism, anti-psychiatric celebrations of madness, feminists mobilizing against rape, and pundits and philosophers championing human rights. Based on newly accessible archival sources and over fifty interviews with men and women who participated in the events of the era, From Revolution to Ethics provides a compelling picture of how May 1968 helped make ethics a compass for navigating contemporary global experience.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La pédagogie institutionnelle s’est construite à partir de la pédagogie Freinet et des Sciences Humaines. Il n’est pas possible de comprendre les pédagogies « nouvelles », et « actives », sans rappeler cette dramatique question toujours actuelle : éduquer à la démocratie, à la parole, au coeur de l’essence même du savoir, de la connaissance, peut-il se faire sans l’éducation « institutionnelle », institutionnalisée, c’est-à-dire décidée, discutée, arrêtée en commun ? Ce livre est un montage des contributions des groupes actuels de pédagogie institutionnelle. Il vise à montrer des pratiques de la classe, de l’école, qui ouvrent un réel espace social d’apprentissage pour la société de demain, en carence de démocratie, de relation, de savoirs partagés. Une démocratie d’apprentissage. Apprendre, oui, mais pas n’importe comment. À côté ou autour de ces groupes, des milliers d’enseignants, dans le monde « globalisé » d’aujourd’hui, sur la planète en arrivent aux mêmes pédagogies, aux mêmes nécessités : réveiller la soif d’apprendre, en groupe, pour nos « vieilles » sociétés ; ou l’éveiller, plus simplement, dans le monde ouvert du présent. Mais pas à n’importe quel prix. Le sujet est « l’appreneur ». Un appreneur vaut un entrepreneur. Une force à venir. Ce livre fait suite et complément au livre : La Pédagogie Institutionnelle de Fernand Oury (Matrice, 2009) et au colloque de 2008 à Paris Ouest Nanterre.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines language contact and shift in Nepal, a multilingual context where language attitudes and policies often reflect the complex socio-cultural and socio-political relationship between minority, majority and endangered languages and peoples. Presenting the results of a 15-year study and making use of both quantitative and qualitative data, the author presents evidence relating to speakers' opinions and perceptions of mother tongues including English, Hindi, Nepali, Sherpa, Dotyali, Jumli and Tharu. This book explores an under-studied part of the world, and the findings will be relevant to scholars working in other multilingual contexts in fields including language policy and planning, language contact and change, and language attitudes and ideologies.

Download or read book Cooperative Learning Social Change written by and published by James Lorimer & Company. This book was released on 1990-01-01 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Célestin Freinet (1896-1966) spent his whole life teaching in small rural elementary schools in the south of France. From this base, he pioneered an international movement for radical educational reform through cooperative learning. Freinet's Modern School Movement has provided the network through which a broad community of teachers have come to know his remarkable variety of innovative classroom approaches: the importance of creative and useful work for children learning and close observation of how they do it; a direct appreciation for the natural world; a commitment to developing appropriate technologies for the classroom; and a strong emphasis on linking school and community with the wider issues of social justice and action. Cooperative Learning and Social Change offers an introduction to a powerful pedagogical method that remains fresh and relevant today. An Our Schools/Our Selves book.

Download or read book Philosophy in a Time of Terror written by Giovanna Borradori and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2013-05-28 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The idea for Philosophy in a Time of Terror was born hours after the attacks on 9/11 and was realized just weeks later when Giovanna Borradori sat down with Jürgen Habermas and Jacques Derrida in New York City, in separate interviews, to evaluate the significance of the most destructive terrorist act ever perpetrated. This book marks an unprecedented encounter between two of the most influential thinkers of our age as here, for the first time, Habermas and Derrida overcome their mutual antagonism and agree to appear side by side. As the two philosophers disassemble and reassemble what we think we know about terrorism, they break from the familiar social and political rhetoric increasingly polarized between good and evil. In this process, we watch two of the greatest intellects of the century at work.

Download or read book Time and the Rhythms of Emancipatory Education written by Michel Alhadeff-Jones and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-10-26 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Time and the Rhythms of Emancipatory Education argues that by rethinking the way we relate to time, we can fundamentally rethink the way we conceive education. Beyond the contemporary rhetoric of acceleration, speed, urgency or slowness, this book provides an epistemological, historical and theoretical framework that will serve as a comprehensive resource for critical reflection on the relationship between the experience of time and emancipatory education. Drawing upon time and rhythm studies, complexity theories and educational research, Alhadeff-Jones reflects upon the temporal and rhythmic dimensions of education in order to (re)theorize and address current societal and educational challenges. The book is divided into three parts. The first begins by discussing the specificities inherent to the study of time in educational sciences. The second contextualizes the evolution of temporal constraints that determine the ways education is institutionalized, organized, and experienced. The third and final part questions the meanings of emancipatory education in a context of temporal alienation. This is the first book to provide a broad overview of European and North-American theories that inform both the ideas of time and rhythm in educational sciences, from school instruction, curriculum design and arts education, to vocational training, lifelong learning and educational policies. It will be of key interest to academics, researchers and postgraduate students in the fields of philosophy of education, sociology of education, history of education, psychology, curriculum and learning theory, and adult education.

Download or read book Swiss Public Administration written by Andreas Ladner and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-08-07 with total page 397 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Swiss citizens approve of their government and the way democracy is practiced; they trust the authorities and are satisfied with the range of services Swiss governments provide. This is quite unusual when compared to other countries. This open access book provides insight into the organization and the functioning of the Swiss state. It claims that, beyond politics, institutions and public administration, there are other factors which make a country successful. The authors argue that Switzerland is an interesting case, from a theoretical, scientific and a more practice-oriented perspective. While confronted with the same challenges as other countries, Switzerland offers different solutions, some of which work astonishingly well.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fernand Oury (1920-1998), innovateur pédagogique original dès avant sa rencontre avec Célestin Freinet (1949), qui voit ses intuitions et expérimentations de jeune enseignant confirmées par les élaborations du fondateur de la pédagogie coopérative : la pédagogie frontale et sa concrétisation quasi-caricaturale dans l’organisation de l’école-caserne sont une impasse non seulement pédagogique mais anthropologique. Mais les pédagogies « libertaires » le sont tout autant, qui laissent la « liberté ensauvagée » à sa propre pente autodestructrice. Marqué dès les années 50 par les nouvelles voies de compréhension de la vie psychique ouvertes par la psychanalyse, il réélabore au profit de l’école les concepts et outils forgés par la psychothérapie institutionnelle (François Tosquelles, Jean Oury). De la collaboration avec son frère Jean et avec ses partenaires d’abord parisiens de l’École Moderne vont naître, avec Aïda Vasquez, Jacques Pain, Catherine Pochet et Françoise Thébaudin un ensemble d’oeuvres qui exposent les implications d’une nouvelle figure de l’« instituteur » : le créateur ou l’initiateur des « institutions », dispositifs d’articulation concrète du Désir avec la Loi.
