  • Pages : 312 pages

Download or read book Natural Moralities written by David B Wong and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2006-10-05 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, David B. Wong defends an ambitious and important new version of moral relativism. He does not espouse the type of relativism that says anything goes, but he does start with a relativist stance against alternative theories such that there need not be only one universal truth. Wong proposes that there can be a plurality of true moralities existing across different traditions and cultures, all with one core human question as to how we can all live together.

Book Making Vancouver

    Book Details:
  • Author : Robert A.J. McDonald
  • Publisher : UBC Press
  • Release : 2011-11-01
  • ISBN : 077484227X
  • Pages : 337 pages

Download or read book Making Vancouver written by Robert A.J. McDonald and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2011-11-01 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Making Vancouver explores social relationships in Vancouver from 1863 to 1913. It considers how urbanization structured social boundaries among Burrard Inlet's increasingly large population and is premised on the belief that, in studying social boundaries, historians must abandon single category forms of analysis and build into their research strategies the capacity to explore complexity. Robert McDonald thus traces the relationship between the two forms of identify, class and status, for the whole of Vancouver society. The book starts with the years when settlement on Burrard Inlet centred around two lumber mills, explores periods of elite dominance of city institutions and then of growing social and political conflict following the arrival of the railway, examines the heightening of class tensions at the turn of the century, charts economic growth during the boom years before the war, and concludes with three chapters on the tripartite status hierarchy that emerged in concert with that of a class dichotomy. It reveals a western city that was neither egalitarian nor closed to opportunity. Vancouver up to the pre-war crash of 1913 was open and dynamic. The rapidity of growth, easy access to resources, narrow industrial base, and influence of ethnicity and race softened the thrust towards class division inherent in capitalism. Far more powerful in directing social relations was the quest for status, creating a social structure that was no less hierarchical than that predicted by class theory but much more fluid. The social boundary that separated the working class from others is revealed as a division that for much of the pre-war boom period divided Vancouver society more fundamentally than the boundary separating labour from capital.

Download or read book Gender and Teaching written by Frances A. Maher and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2001-09-01 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gender and Teaching provides a vivid, focused, and interactive overview of important gender issues in education today. This is aocomphshed through conversations among experts, practitioners, and readers that are informed by representative case studies and by a range of theoretical approaches to the issues. Gender and Teaching is the third volume in Reflective Teaching and the Social Conditions of Schooling: A Series for Prospective and Practicing Teachers, edited by Daniel P. Liston and Kenneth M. Zeichner. It follows the same format as previous volumes in the senes. Part I includes four cases dealing with related aspects of gendered experiences In schools (non-sexist elementary school curricula; gender and race implications of special education assignment practices; homophobia in high schools and classrooms; and teaching as a woman’s profession), followed by reactions from preservice and practicing teachers, administrators, and professors. Part II is an elaboration of four “public argurnents”—conservative, liberal, women-centered, and radical-multicultural-—pertaining to the issues raised in Part I. These arguments exemplify dusters of orientations, organized around general values rather than hard and fast principles. Part lii presents the authors’ own interpretations of the issues raised throughout the book, and provides activities and topics for reflection and an annotated bibliography of additional resources.
