Download or read book On Rowan Williams written by Matheson Russell and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2009-01-01 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Theologian, poet, public intellectual, and clergyman, Rowan Williams is one of the leading lights of contemporary British theology. He has published over twenty books and one hundred scholarly essays in a distinguished career as an academic theologian that culminated in his appointment as Lady Margaret Professor of Divinity at Oxford University. Williams left this post to serve in the Anglican Church, first as Bishop of Monmouth, then Archbishop of Wales, before finally being enthroned in 2003 as the 104th Archbishop of Canterbury. In this collection of essays, a talented younger generation of Australian theologians critically analyzes the themes that bind together Williams's theology. These sympathetic yet probing essays traverse the full breadth of Williams's work, from his studies on Arius, the Desert Fathers, Hegel, and Trinitarian theology to his more pastoral writings on spirituality, sexuality, politics, and the Anglican Church.

Download or read book Bridging Differences written by William B. Gudykunst and published by SAGE Publications. This book was released on 2003-08-11 with total page 449 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bridging Differences: Effective Intergroup Communication is based on the assumption that the processes operating when we communicate with people from other groups are the same processes operating when we communicate with people from our own groups. Author William B. Gudykunst has written this book from the perspective of "communicating with strangers" and addresses how factors related to our group memberships (e.g., inaccurate and unfavorable stereotypes of members of other cultures and ethnic groups) can cause us to misinterpret the messages we receive from members of those groups. Designed for students taking courses in Intercultural Communication or Intergroup Communication, Bridging Differences is also useful for many courses in Cultural Studies, Anthropology, Sociology, and Management.
Download or read book Blue Horizons written by Nataša Rogelja and published by Založba ZRC. This book was released on 2017-02-01 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a result of opening of internal borders within the EU and rapid development of affordable navigation technology, there is a constantly increasing number of people in the Mediterranean who have adopted a lifestyle that revolves around living working and traveling on sailing boats. On the ground of ethnography among liveaboards in Greece the book discusses the following questions: How can we conceptualise these novel forms of movements that seem to sit uncomfortably in between the standard dichotomized division of work within migration studies and wider social sciences: internal/international migration, temporary/permanent, migration/tourism? How do we theoretically and methodologically situate these individuals that are statistically often invisible and seem to evade the common categories of describing a mobile person, such as migrant or tourist? In order to answer these questions, the author explores ethnographically the connection between the maritime environment, sea imaginaries and lifestyle migration. It puts forward six crew portraits in order to highlight details from individuals’ lives on a longer time perspective but also to place the individual stories, sea imaginaries and people’s experiences with the maritime environment in dialogue with each other. This makes it possible to better understand the expectations, aspirations and experiences of maritime lifestyle migrants and to discuss further the idea of temporarily unbelonging in practice. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Z odprtjem internih mej v EU in zavoljo hitrega razvoja lahko dostopne navigacijske tehnologije je v okviru Mediterana opaziti naraščanje števila ljudi iz zahodne Evrope, ki so razvili poseben življenjski stil – združevanje dela, potovanja in vsakdanjega življenja na jadrnicah. V knjigi so etnografsko osvetljena sledeča vprašanja: Kako konceptualizirati te nove oblike gibanj, ki zavzemajo neudobno, vmesno pozicijo med standardnimi dihotomijami znotraj migracijskih študij kot tudi širše družbenih ved: notranje / mednarodne migracije; začasne / trajne migracije; migracije / turizem? Kako teoretično in metodološko umestiti tovrstne posameznike, ki so statistično pogosto nevidni in za katere se zdi, da se uspejo izognejo standardnim kategorizacijam mobilnih oseb (migrant, turist)? V iskanju odgovorov na zgoraj zastavljena vprašanja avtorica s pomočjo etnografske metode raziskuje povezavo med morjem, imaginariji morja in življenjsko-stilskimi migracijami. V ospredje postavlja šest etnografskih portretov, skozi katere osvetljuje podrobnosti iz življenj posameznikov v daljšem časovnem obdobju, imaginarije morja in fizične izkušnje z morskim okoljem. Na ta način lahko bolje razumem pričakovanja, aspiracije in izkušnje pomorskih življenjsko-stilskih migrantov in poglobimo razprave o začasnem nepripadanju v praksi.

Download or read book Developmental Psychology From Infancy to Development written by Fiona White and published by Pearson Higher Education AU. This book was released on 2012-08-20 with total page 537 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Developmental Psychology: From infancy to adulthood, 3rd edition, continues to bring together a balanced focus on Australian and international research contributions in developmental psychology. Students and lecturers alike will find this text addresses the issues of lifespan development in a rigorous and challenging way using a thematic rather than chronological approach. International and national research on graduate attributes consistently identifies critical thinking as one of the most important skills for psychology students. The inclusion of Critical Thinking for Group Discussion at the end of each chapter is designed to encourage students in the development of this key skill. These questions help students develop the ability to engage in discussions on truth and validity and evaluate the relative importance of ideas and data. Students learn by doing, and this is encouraged through interactive features such as Stop and Review, Research Focus Boxes, and Practical Exercises which engage them in group discussion and challenge them to delve into complex and cross-domain analysis of lifespan development. Concept maps at the start of each chapter provide students with a visual snapshot of the chapter content.
Download or read book Gender and Justice written by Sally Jane Kenney and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Intended for use in courses on law and society, as well as courses in women's and gender studies, women and politics, and women and the law - this book that takes up the question of what women judges signify in several different jurisdictions in the United States, United Kingdom, and European Union. In so doing, its empirical case studies uniquely offer a model of how to study gender as a social process rather than merely studying women and treating sex as a variable. A gender analysis yields a fuller understanding of emotions and social movement mobilization, backlash, policy implementation, agenda setting, and representation. Lastly, the book makes a non-essentialist case for more women judges, that is, one that does not rest on women's difference.
