Download or read book Queering the Field written by Gregory F. Barz and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 465 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing on ethnographic research and often deeply personal experiences with musical cultures, Queering the Field: Sounding out Ethnomusicology unpacks a history of sentiment that veils the treatment of queer music and identity within the field of ethnomusicology. The thematic structure of the volume reflects a deliberate cartography of queer spaces in the discipline-spaces that are strongly present due to their absence, are marked by direct sonic parameters, or are called into question by virtue of their otherness. As the first large-scale study of ethnomusicology's queer silences and queer identity politics, Queering the Field directly addresses the normativities currently at play in musical ethnography (fieldwork, analysis, performance, transcription) as well as in the practice of musical ethnographers (identification, participation, disclosure, observation, authority). While rooted in strong narrative convictions, the authors frequently adopt radicalized voices with the goal of queering a hierarchical sexual binary. The essays in the volume present rhetorical and syntactical scenarios that challenge us to read in prescient singular ways for future queer writing and queer thought in ethnomusicology.

Download or read book What Women Want written by Gill Steel and published by University of Michigan Press. This book was released on 2022-03-14 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What Women Want analyzes decades of voting preferences, values, and policy preferences to debunk some of the media and academic myths about gender gaps in voting and policy preferences. Findings show that no single theory explains when differences in women’s and men’s voting preferences emerge, when they do not, or when changes—or the lack thereof—occur over time. Steel extends existing theories to create a broader framework for thinking about gender and voting behavior to provide more analytical purchase in understanding gender and its varying effects on individual voters’ preferences. She incorporates the long-term effects of party identification and class politics on political decision-making, particularly in how they influence preferences on social provision and on expectations of the state. She also points to the importance of symbolic politics

Download or read book Journalism Ethics at the Crossroads written by Roger Patching and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-09-30 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides journalism students with an easy-to-read yet theoretically rich guide to the dialectics, contradictions, problems, and promises encapsulated in the term ‘journalism ethics’. Offering an overview of a series of crises that have shaken global journalism to its foundations in the last decade, including the coronavirus pandemic, the Black Lives Matter movement, and the 2020 US presidential election, the book explores the structural and ethical problems that shape the journalism industry today. The authors discuss the three principle existential crises that continue to plague the news industry: a failing business model, technological disruption, and growing public mistrust of journalism. Other topics covered include social media ethics, privacy concerns, chequebook journalism, as well as a new analysis of journalism theory that critiques the well-worn tropes of objectivity, the Fourth Estate, freedom of the press, and the marketplace of ideas to develop a sophisticated materialist reimagining of journalism ethics. This is a key text for students of journalism, mass communication, and media ethics, as well as for academics, researchers, and communications professionals interested in contemporary journalism ethics.

Book excerpt: Der didaktische Wert von picturebooks für den Englischunterricht in der Grundschule gilt als unumstritten.

Download or read book Waldorf Schools and the History of Steiner Education written by Thomas Stehlik and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-10-31 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book marks the centenary of the first Waldorf School, established by Rudolf Steiner in Stuttgart in 1919. With around 1,150 Waldorf Schools and over 1,800 Waldorf Kindergartens established in over 60 countries, this book examines and analyses how the initial impulse of Steiner education has grown over the last century to become a worldwide alternative movement in education. The author documents and compares the growth and development of Waldorf schools and Steiner-inspired educational institutions around the world, and determines the extent to which the original underpinning philosophy has been maintained against the contexts and challenges of contemporary global trends in education. Within such diverse international contexts, it is significant that the schools retain such a distinctive identity, and clearly redefine how ‘alternative education’ can be viewed. This comprehensive volume will be of interest and value to scholars of Steiner education and Waldorf schools as well as alternative education more widely.

Download or read book Environment and Human Health written by Santanu Rana and published by Green Feather. This book was released on 2024-05-12 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As we traverse the intricate tapestry of human existence, an inextricable bond exists between the environment and our health. This bond, woven with threads of complexity, interconnects the fabric of our well-being with the ecosystems surrounding us. With the acceleration in urbanization, resource consumption and economic growth, the environment often remains in the back seat. This book, titled "Environment and Human Health," is a humble attempt to seek insight into the intricate dynamics between environmental factors and human health. The journey commences with a concise review of the impact of particulate matter on human health, illuminating the pernicious effects of airborne pollutants on our well-being. From there, we further proceed to the semi-urban landscapes of West Bengal, India, where the interplay between traffic load and chlorophyll content of roadside plants unveils a narrative of ecological resilience amidst anthropogenic pressures. Venturing further into the realm of environmental challenges, we confront the spectre of fluoride contamination in groundwater, grappling with its source characterization and the associated health risks. Yet, amidst these challenges, glimmers of hope emerge as we explore sustainable solutions such as integrating Microbial Fuel Cells in wastewater treatment—a testament to human ingenuity in mitigating environmental degradation while safeguarding public health. The discourse then shifts to the insidious effects of airborne polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) on human health, underscoring the imperative of addressing industrial emissions to preserve human well-being. From the plains of West Bengal to the marshlands that teem with biodiversity, we confront the urgent need for robust legal mechanisms to protect these vital ecosystems, recognizing their indispensable role in sustaining human health and ecological balance. As we navigate through the narrative tapestry of this volume, we encounter a beacon of hope amidst the shadows of environmental degradation—the transformative potential of repurposing opencast coal pits for fish culture, offering not only sustenance but also a testament to the resilience of nature when nurtured with care. In compiling these scholarly endeavours lies a clarion call to action—a call to embrace a paradigm of stewardship, where preserving our environment is synonymous with safeguarding our health. For in the nexus of environment and human health lies the cornerstone of our shared prosperity and well-being.

Download or read book Animal Activism On and Off Screen written by Claire Parkinson and published by Sydney University Press. This book was released on 2024-07-01 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Animal Activism On and Off Screen examines the relationship between animal advocacy and the film and television industries. Leading scholars, activists, and film industry professionals critically analyse the ways in which animal activism has been represented inside and outside film and television programs in relation to the politics of celebrity, vegan, and animal activism. Case studies include UK, US, and German television crime fiction, feature-length advocacy documentaries such as Blackfish (2013), The Ghosts in Our Machine (2013), The Animal People (2019) and Meat the Future (2020); fiction films such as Okja (2017) and Cloud Atlas (2012); as well as celebrity chefs, French activism and celebrity activists Pamela Anderson, Joaquin Phoenix and James Cromwell. By exploring three key aspects of the current context for animal rights: representations of activism on screen; activist texts and their reception; and celebrity vegans and animal advocates, Animal Activism On and Off Screen evaluates the efficacy of advocacy narratives in film and on television, and offers important insights intended to inform animal advocacy strategies and campaigns.
Download or read book Unbottled written by Daniel Jaffee and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2023-09-19 with total page 379 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An exploration of bottled water's impact on social justice and sustainability, and how diverse movements are fighting back. In just four decades, bottled water has transformed from a luxury niche item into a ubiquitous consumer product, representing a $300 billion market dominated by global corporations. It sits at the convergence of a mounting ecological crisis of single-use plastic waste and climate change, a social crisis of affordable access to safe drinking water, and a struggle over the fate of public water systems. Unbottled examines the vibrant movements that have emerged to question the need for bottled water and challenge its growth in North America and worldwide. Drawing on extensive interviews with activists, residents, public officials, and other participants in controversies ranging from bottled water's role in unsafe tap water crises to groundwater extraction for bottling in rural communities, Daniel Jaffee asks what this commodity's meteoric growth means for social inequality, sustainability, and the human right to water. Unbottled profiles campaigns to reclaim the tap and addresses the challenges of ending dependence on packaged water in places where safe water is not widely accessible. Clear and compelling, it assesses the prospects for the movements fighting plastic water and working to ensure water justice for all.
