Download or read book Geographical Typology and Linguistic Areas written by Osamu Hieda and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2011-01-26 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is Africa a linguistic area (Heine & Leyew 2008)? The present volume consists of sixteen papers highlighting the linguistic geography of Africa, covering, in particular, southern Africa with its Khoisan languages. A wide range of phenomena are discussed to give an overview of the pattern of social, cultural, and linguistic interaction that characterizes Africa's linguistic geography. Most contributors to the volume discuss language contact and areal diffusion in Africa, although some demonstrate, with examples from non-African linguistic data, including Amazonian and European languages, how language contact may lead to structural convergence. Others investigate contact phenomena in social-cultural behavior. The volume makes a large contribution toward bringing generalized theory to data-oriented discussions. It is intended to stimulate further research on contact phenomena in Africa. For sale in all countries except Japan. For customers in Japan: please contact Yushodo Co.

Download or read book The Future of Child and Family Law written by Elaine E. Sutherland and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2012-08-02 with total page 497 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Child and family law tells us much about how a society operates, since it touches the lives of everyone living in that society. In this volume, a variety of experts examine child and family law in thirteen countries - Australia, Canada, China, India, Israel, Malaysia, The Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Russia, Scotland, South Africa and the United States. Each chapter identifies the imperatives and influences that have prevailed to date and offers informed predictions of how it will develop in the years to come. A common chapter structure facilitates comparison of the jurisdictions, and in the introduction the editor highlights common trends and salient differences. The Future of Child and Family Law therefore provides practitioners, academics and policy-makers with access not just to an overview of child and family law in a range of countries around the world, but also to insights into what has shaped it and options for reform.

Download or read book Remote Control Childhood written by Diane E. Levin and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ever since television became a daily staple of U.S. family life, its influence on children has been the subject of study and debate. No aspect of the debate has been more heated than violence in the media. But a growing knowledge base has shifted the focus of the debate from whether media violence contributes to violence in real life to what can be done to deal with and reduce the violence. This book, written for both teachers and parents, aims to inspire creation of a "village" that supports the development of more positive media and media culture for children. The guide is divided into three parts. Part 1 gives background information on media, media violence, and the media culture and how it affects children. Part 2 discusses classroom strategies for working effectively with children on the full range of ways media, media violence, and media culture touch their lives. Part 3 describes strategies for working on media issues outside the classroom, with parents, in schools, and in the wider community. Throughout the book is information detailing the important issues underlying each topic, as well as guidelines to clarify how to address these issues, action ideas for how to begin, and numerous examples illustrating how teachers, parents, and others in the wider community have translated the suggestions into practice in their particular settings. The "Resources" section includes a bibliography, selected videos on media violence and children, selected children's books with annotations, organizations, national TV networks, government officials, and major toy manufacturers and retailers. Appendices present the NAEYC Position Statement on Media Violence in Children's Lives, sample materials from a community activity, and a sample flyer from a local event. (Contains 19 references.)
