Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Culture, Discipline and Democracy If I had been writing wholly from the standpoint of educational tradition, the title of this book would have been Democracy through Culture and Discipline. For the first step taken toward democratic education was to ensure intelligent citizenship by making the culture and discipline, which in the past had been reserved for privileged social classes, accessible to the whole people through a system of free schools. Writing as I have done, wholly as an investigator who records in as logical order as he can the results of his inquiry, a truer title for my work as it reaches its completion would be Culture and Discipline through Direct Preparation for Democracy. For from the standpoint of culture and discipline as distinct from democracy, I have been forced to see that for the majority of individuals who do not continue to lead the life of academic specialists, no discipline can be lasting or culture continuing which is not closely related to every-day life. And to an education which is democratic only in its opportunity, I have gradually come to add education which is democratic, on the one hand, in its ideals, its subject matter, its organization and its method, and on the other, in compulsion which demands not only that each individual shall have through compulsory school attendance the rudiments of academic knowledge, but, through the compulsion of repetition, every detail of culture and discipline essential to usefulness to the community and the state.

Download or read book Democracy and Education written by John Dewey and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 1916 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: . Renewal of Life by Transmission. The most notable distinction between living and inanimate things is that the former maintain themselves by renewal. A stone when struck resists. If its resistance is greater than the force of the blow struck, it remains outwardly unchanged. Otherwise, it is shattered into smaller bits. Never does the stone attempt to react in such a way that it may maintain itself against the blow, much less so as to render the blow a contributing factor to its own continued action. While the living thing may easily be crushed by superior force, it none the less tries to turn the energies which act upon it into means of its own further existence. If it cannot do so, it does not just split into smaller pieces (at least in the higher forms of life), but loses its identity as a living thing. As long as it endures, it struggles to use surrounding energies in its own behalf. It uses light, air, moisture, and the material of soil. To say that it uses them is to say that it turns them into means of its own conservation. As long as it is growing, the energy it expends in thus turning the environment to account is more than compensated for by the return it gets: it grows. Understanding the word "control" in this sense, it may be said that a living being is one that subjugates and controls for its own continued activity the energies that would otherwise use it up. Life is a self-renewing process through action upon the environment.

Book excerpt: In order to survive as a democracy our nation must have a disciplined citizenry. This book states the case for the dynamic nature of a democratic discipline. The ends chosen to show a disciplined citizenship are based on the ancient trinity of Truth, Beauty, and Goodness, ideals served by the disciplines of science, art, and politics. It is in the measure of what politics provides for a state that the three ideals come together. Originally published in 1942.

Download or read book The Culture of Punishment written by Michelle Brown and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2009-10-15 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: America is the most punitive nation in the world, incarcerating more than 2.3 million people—or one in 136 of its residents. Against the backdrop of this unprecedented mass imprisonment, punishment permeates everyday life, carrying with it complex cultural meanings. In The Culture of Punishment, Michelle Brown goes beyond prison gates and into the routine and popular engagements of everyday life, showing that those of us most distanced from the practice of punishment tend to be particularly harsh in our judgments. The Culture of Punishment takes readers on a tour of the sites where culture and punishment meet—television shows, movies, prison tourism, and post 9/11 new war prisons—demonstrating that because incarceration affects people along distinct race and class lines, it is only a privileged group of citizens who are removed from the experience of incarceration. These penal spectators, who often sanction the infliction of pain from a distance, risk overlooking the reasons for democratic oversight of the project of punishment and, more broadly, justifications for the prohibition of pain.

Download or read book Public Culture written by Marguerite S. Shaffer and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2012-04-17 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the United States today many people are as likely to identify themselves by their ethnicity or region as by their nationality. In this country with its diversity and inequalities, can there be a shared public culture? Is there an unbridgeable gap between cultural variety and civic unity, or can public forms of expression provide an opportunity for Americans to come together as a people? In Public Culture: Diversity, Democracy, and Community in the United States, an interdisciplinary group of scholars addresses these questions while considering the state of American public culture over the past one hundred years. From medicine shows to the Internet, from the Los Angeles Plaza to the Las Vegas Strip, from the commemoration of the Oklahoma City bombing to television programming after 9/11, public sights and scenes provide ways to negotiate new forms of belonging in a diverse, postmodern community. By analyzing these cultural phenomena, the essays in this volume reveal how mass media, consumerism, increased privatization of space, and growing political polarization have transformed public culture and the very notion of the American public. Focusing on four central themes—public action, public image, public space, and public identity—and approaching shared culture from a range of disciplines—including mass communication, history, sociology, urban studies, ethnic studies, and cultural studies—Public Culture offers refreshing perspectives on a subject of perennial significance.
