 Evidence-Based Policymaking Envisioning a New Era of Theory, Research, and Practice【電子書籍】[ Karen Bogenschneider ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞New thinking is needed on the age-old conundrum of how to connect research and policymaking. Why does a disconnect exist between the research community, which is producing thousands of studies relevant to public policy, and the policy community, which is making thousands of decisions that would benefit from research evidence? The second edition updates community dissonance theory and provides an even stronger, more substantiated story of why research is underutilized in policymaking, and what it will take to connect researchers and policymakers. This book offers a fresh look into what policymakers and the policy process are like, as told by policymakers themselves and the researchers who study and work with them.＜/p＞ ＜p＞New to the second edition:＜/p＞ ＜p＞? The point of view of policymakers is infused throughout this book based on a remarkable new study of 225 state legislators with an extraordinarily high response rate in this hard-to-access population.＜/p＞ ＜p＞? A new theory holds promise for guiding the study and practice of evidence-based policy by building on how policymakers say research contributes to policymaking.＜/p＞ ＜p＞? A new chapter features pioneering researchers who have effectively influenced public policy by engaging policymakers in ways rewarding to both.＜/p＞ ＜p＞? A new chapter proposes how an engaged university could provide culturally competent training to create a new type of scholar and scholarship.＜/p＞ ＜p＞This review of state-of-the-art research on evidence-based policy is a benefit to readers who find it hard to keep abreast of a field that spans the disciplines of business, economics, education, family sciences, health services, political science, psychology, public administration, social work, sociology, and so forth.＜/p＞ ＜p＞For those who study evidence-based policy, the book provides the basics of producing policy relevant research by introducing researchers to policymakers and the policy process. Strategies are provided for identifying research questions that are relevant to the societal problems that confront and confound policymakers. Researchers will have at their fingertips a breath-taking overview of classic and cutting-edge studies on the multi-disciplinary field of evidence-based policy.＜/p＞ ＜p＞For instructors, the book is written in a language and style that students find engaging. A topic that many students find mundane becomes germane when they read stories of what policymakers are like, and when they learn of researcher’s tribulations and triumphs as they work to build evidence-based policy. To point students to the most important ideas, the key concepts are highlighted in text boxes.＜/p＞ ＜p＞For those who desire to engage policymakers, a new chapter summarizes the breakthroughs of several researchers who have been successful at driving policy change. The book provides 12 innovative best practices drawn from the science and practice of engaging policymakers, including insights from some of the best and brightest researchers and science communicators. The book also takes on the daunting task of evaluating the effectiveness of efforts to engage policymakers around research. A theory of change identifies seven key elements that are fundamental to increasing policymaker’s use of research along with evaluation protocols and preliminary evidence on each element.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 8,945円 |
 ≪De-Sign≫ in the Transmodern World Envisioning Reality Beyond Absoluteness【電子書籍】[ Farouk Y. Seif ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞De-Sign in the Transmodern World integrates design and sign by revealing the mutual reciprocities between design and semiotics, and bridging the gap between humanities and sciences. By recognizing the global scope of semiotics and tolerating the uncertainty associated with design, human beings can go beyond absoluteness and become able to envision a desirable reality in the transmodern world.＜/p＞ ＜p＞This publication examines the fusion of design and semiotics, which is at the core of evolutionary love that encourages us to go beyond what we conventionally perceive into what we are imaginatively capable of interpreting. As semiotic animals, we are capable of developing awareness, relationships, and mediation toward semiosis of an undivided wholeness in flowing movement. Human beings have unlimited ≫semioethical≪ responsibility toward each other and toward other-than-human systems. This ethical implication depends on our ability to liberate ourselves from the fallacy of absolute reality.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 10,419円 |
 Re-Envisioning the Public Research University Navigating Competing Demands in an Era of Rapid Change【電子書籍】 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞This volume explores the numerous and competing demands that face America’s public research universities and considers how institutions and their leaders can best navigate this challenge to ensure longevity, relevance, and success on the local, national, and global stage.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Today’s public research universities have the unique challenge of responding to new societal pressures and policies, while remaining true to their core educational missions and values.

 Networking Tips for Writers: Envisioning Success【電子書籍】[ Terrie Leigh Relf ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞While writing -- and reading -- may be a solitary act, it is also a collaborative one: between writers and their internal and external editors, writers and their publishers, writers and their readers, and yes, writers and their colleagues, or fellow writers.

That said, this short eBook is about that collaborative process and is intended for writers of all levels and experience. Whether you’re new to the writing scene or are a networking guru, I hope you find something of value within these pages.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 332円 |
 Envisioning Music Teacher Education【電子書籍】 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞This volume will contain selected proceedings from the 2013 Symposium on Music Teacher Education, sponsored by NAfME’s Society for Music Teacher Education and hosted at University of North Carolina. After an introduction written by SMTE Chair, Doug Orzolek, the initial chapter will represent the keynote address of the symposium by Karen Hammerness, Director of Program Research for the Bard Master of Arts in Teaching Program. Hammerness will bring her comparative work with music teacher educators in Finland and Norway to bear in her address: From Inspiring Visions to Everyday Practices: Exploring Vision and Practice in Music Teacher Education. Hammerness’s research distills into three main themes. To mitigate against the fragmentation that characterizes so much of contemporary education, teacher education programs must: 1) promote a clear vision of teachers and teaching; 2) be coherent, reflecting shared understanding of teaching and learning among faculty and students; 3) be built around a strong, core curriculum that is deeply tied to the practices of teaching.＜/p＞ ＜p＞These three themes will orient the remainder of chapters in the volume, which will come from invited primary presenters at the 2013 Symposium. Due to selectivity of blind peer review (twenty-one percent accept rate), these presentations represent the most rigorous research, and best practices grounded in research, that the music education profession has to offer.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 7,003円 |

 Teaching English as an International Language Implementing, Reviewing, and Re-Envisioning World Englishes in Language Education【電子書籍】[ Roby Marlina ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞How do teachers inspire students to learn to appreciate different Englishes? Has anyone tried to teach world Englishes? If so, what do they do and how do they feel about it? Most importantly, do students see the benefits in learning about world Englishes? This book responds to these questions by 1) offering a clear and solid foundation for the development of English as an International Language (EIL)-oriented curricula in an English Language program and a teacher education program, 2) critically reviewing the current pedagogical principles and practices of teaching EIL, and 3) offering an alternative way of conceptualising and teaching EIL. Using a three-year undergraduate program of EIL in an Australian university as a research site, this book provides a detailed account of actual classroom practices that raise students’ awareness of world Englishes and engage them in learning how to communicate interculturally. This book is the first of its kind that explores the teaching of EIL in a country where English is a predominant and national language.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 7,338円 |
 The Master's Degree in Education as Teacher Professional Development Re-envisioning the Role of the Academy in the Development of Practicing Teachers【電子書籍】[ Gary Galluzzo ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Teacher education is under more scrutiny than ever as standards-based education is becoming more and more the norm. Although much literature is available that addresses developing teacher education, no one addresses how to create and develop a master’s level program. Gary R.Galluzzo, Joan PackerIsenberg, C. StephenWhite, and Rebecca K. Fox, professors at the highly regarded Graduate School of Education at George Mason University, present a text to help deans and other professionals develop a master’s level degree program that meets the standards of the National Board for Professional Teaching Standards. The various sections explain in depth the facets of the program’s design, including how to qualify future students answering the call by the National Board, provide researched evidence around Advanced Studies in Teaching and Learning, and lastly, explore what will become the new standards of accountability for teacher education. Using their own experience as they reconceived their own program for a master’s degree for practicing teachers, the authors provide first-hand accounts of their own expectations, outcomes, and continual dilemmas to inspire more discussion how teacher education can improve the quality of teaching in America’s schools.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 5,595円 |

 Envisioning Africa Racism and Imperialism in Conrad's Heart of Darkness【電子書籍】[ Peter Edgerly Firchow ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞For one hundred years, ＜em＞Heart of Darkness＜/em＞ has been among the most widely read and taught novels in the English language. Hailed as an incisive indictment of European imperialism in Africa upon its publication in 1899, more recently it has been repeatedly denounced as racist and imperialist. Peter Firchow counters these claims, and his carefully argued response allows the charges of Conrad's alleged bias to be evaluated as objectively as possible. He begins by contrasting the meanings of race, racism, and imperialism in Conrad's day to those of our own time. Firchow then argues that ＜em＞Heart of Darkness＜/em＞ is a novel rather than a sociological treatise; only in relation to its aesthetic significance can real social and intellectual-historical meaning be established.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜em＞Envisioning Africa＜/em＞ responds in detail to negative interpretations of the novel by revealing what they distort, misconstrue, or fail to take into account. Firchow uses a framework of imagology to examine how national, ethnic, and racial images are portrayed in the text, differentiating the idea of a national stereotype from that of national character. He believes that what Conrad saw personally in Africa should not be confused with the Africa he describes in the novel; ＜em＞Heart of Darkness＜/em＞ is instead an envisioning and a revisioning of Conrad's experiences in the medium of fiction.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 3,973円 |

 Envisioning the Cosmic Body of Christ Embodiment, Plurality and Incarnation【電子書籍】 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞The metaphor of the cosmos as the Body of Christ offers an opportunity to escape the aporias of standard Body of Christ imagery, which has often proved anthropocentric, exclusivist, triumphalist and/or sexist in the analyses of classical theologies. The body motif in particular contains starting points for current body discourses of gender-sensitive and ecological theologies, especially in their mutual overlaps. This book offers a critical evaluation of the prospects and boundaries of an updated metaphor of the Body of Christ, especially in its cosmic dimension.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The first part of the book addresses the complex tradition in which the universal dimension of cosmological Christologies is located, including the thinking of the Apostles Paul and John, Origen, Cusanus, Teilhard de Chardin, McFague, and Panikkar. In the second part of the book, representatives of various innovative concepts will contribute to the anthology.＜/p＞ ＜p＞This is a wide-ranging study of the implications of a new cosmic Body of Christ. As such, it will be of interest to academics working in Religion and Gender, Religion and the Environment, Theology and Christology.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 7,338円 |

Jones ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞We have many pieces to deal with such as family, friends, careers, personal ambitions, dreams, marriage, kids, business etc. and in order to really create a masterpiece that we are proud of, we should have a "big picture" to work from to help guide us in putting everything in its proper perspective.＜/p＞ ＜p＞We are responsible for putting everything in proper perspective, to create the type of life we want to enjoy living, but here's the catch. You cannot effectively put all of those pieces together until you have sketched out what your very own big picture looks like; you must have a blueprint of what you are working towards building in your life, to make the process of connecting the dots easier and manageable.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Envisioning, helps you to create a simple but adequate big picture you can use as a powerful reference point for building a great life; a life of happiness, success, and forward momentum - shaped by a clear sense of vision.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 800円 |
 Envisioning Asia On Location, Travel, and the Cinematic Geography of U.S. Orientalism【電子書籍】[ Jeanette Roan ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞"Whereas some other scholars read selected films mainly to illustrate political arguments, Roan never loses sight of the particularities of film as a distinctive cultural form and practice. Her drive to see 'cinema as a mechanism of American orientalism' results in not just a textual analysis of these films, but also a history of their material production and distribution."＜br /＞ ---Josephine Lee, University of Minnesota＜/p＞ ＜p＞"＜em＞Envisioning Asia＜/em＞ offers an exciting new contribution to our understandings of the historical developments of American Orientalism. Jeannette Roan deftly situates changing cinematic technologies within the context of U.S. imperial agendas in this richly nuanced analysis of 'shooting on location' in Asia in early 20th century American cinema."＜br /＞ ---Wendy Kozol, Oberlin College＜/p＞ ＜p＞"Through her vivid illustration of the role of American cinema in the material, visual, and ideological production of Asia, Jeanette Roan takes the reader on a journey to Asia through a very different route from the virtual travel taken by the viewers of the films she discusses."＜br /＞ ---Mari Yoshihara, University of Hawai'i at Manoa＜/p＞ ＜p＞The birth of cinema coincides with the beginnings of U.S. expansion overseas, and the classic Hollywood era coincides with the rise of the United States as a global superpower. In ＜em＞Envisioning Asia,＜/em＞ Jeanette Roan argues that throughout this period, the cinema's function as a form of virtual travel, coupled with its purported "authenticity," served to advance America's shifting interests in Asia. Its ability to fulfill this imperial role depended, however, not only on the cinematic representations themselves but on the marketing of the films' production histories---and, in particular, their use of Asian locations. Roan demonstrates this point in relation to a wide range of productions, offering an engaging and useful survey of a largely neglected body of film. Not only that, by focusing on the material practices involved in shooting films on location---that is, the actual travels, negotiations, and labor of making a film---she moves beyond formal analysis to produce a richly detailed history of American interests, attitudes, and cultural practices during the first half of the twentieth century.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Jeanette Roan is Adjunct Professor of Visual Studies at California College of the Arts and author of "Exotic Explorations: Travels to Asia and the Pacific in Early Cinema" in ＜em＞Re/collecting Early Asian America: Essays in Cultural History＜/em＞ (2002).＜/p＞ ＜p＞Cover art: Publicity still, Tokyo File 212 (Dorrell McGowan and Stuart McGowan, 1951).

 Envisioning a Tibetan Luminary The Life of a Modern B?npo Saint【電子書籍】[ William M. Gorvine ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Envisioning a Tibetan Luminary examines the religious biography of Shardza Tashi Gyaltsen (1859-1934), the most significant modern figure representing the Tibetan B?n religion-a vital minority tradition that is underrepresented in Tibetan studies. The work is based on fieldwork conducted in eastern Tibet and in the B?n exile community in India, where traditional Tibetan scholars collaborated closely on the project. Utilizing close readings of two versions of Shardza's life-story, along with oral history collected in B?n communities, this book presents and interprets the biographical image of this major figure, culminating with an English translation of his life story. William M. Gorvine argues that the disciple-biographer's literary portrait not only enacts and shapes religious ideals to foster faith among its readership, but also attempts to quell tensions that had developed among his original audience. Among the B?n community today, Shardza Tashi Gyaltsen has come to be unequivocally revered for an impressive textual legacy and a saintly death. During his lifetime, however, he faced prominent critics within his own lineage who went so far as to issue polemical attacks against him. As Gorvine shows, the biographical texts that inform us about Shardza's life are best understood when read on multiple registers, with attention given to the ways in which the religious ideals on display reflect the broader literary, cultural, and historical contexts within which they were envisioned and articulated.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 5,221円 |
 Re-Envisioning Conflict Resolution Vision, Action and Evaluation in Creative Conflict Engagement【電子書籍】[ Jay Rothman ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞This book explores the process of assessing success in the field of conflict resolution, with a focus on the Action Evaluation method pioneered by the author.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Since the early days of the field of conflict resolution, researchers and practitioners have been trying to determine how to define and assess success. Are its various approaches to engaging conflict effective? How is effective defined and operationalized and by whom? How might we know? Action Evaluation (AE), a methodology for defining, promoting and assessing success in and of the field, has been developed over the past two decades to answer these questions theoretically and in-use. It was designed from its inception to help create sound and contextualized standards around which the field could coalesce. AE is an appropriate methodology for evaluation of conflict engagement, in part because it is grounded in key values of the field, like participation, ownership and the constructive engagement of conflict among stakeholders in project development and implementation. By illustrating how AE is applied through case studies, and providing tools for others to use, this book is intended to make AE a more widely available, user-friendly and rigorous action-research tool for researchers and practitioners in the still-emerging field and beyond.＜/p＞ ＜p＞This book will be of much interest to students of conflict resolution, peace studies, research methods and international relations in general, as well as practitioners in the field.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 7,877円 |
 Contemporary Chinese Cinema and Visual Culture Envisioning the Nation【電子書籍】[ Sheldon Lu ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞＜strong＞Honourable Mention, Best Monograph Award, BAFTSS Publication Awards 2022＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞Sheldon Lu's wide-ranging new book investigates how filmmakers and visual artists from mainland China, Hong Kong and Taiwan have envisioned China as it transitions from a socialist to a globalized capitalist state. It examines how the modern nation has been refashioned and re-imagined in order to keep pace with globalization and transnationalism.＜/p＞ ＜p＞At the heart of Lu's analysis is a double movement in the relationship between nation and transnationalism in the Chinese post-socialist state. He considers the complexity of how the Chinese economy is integrated in the global capitalist system while also remaining a repressive body politic with mechanisms of control and surveillance. He explores the interrelations of the local, the national, the subnational, and the global as China repositions itself in the world.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Lu considers examples from feature and documentary film, mainstream and marginal cinema, and a variety of visual arts: photography, painting, digital video, architecture, and installation.

 Envisioning Gender in Burgundian Devotional Art, 1350?1530 Experience, Authority, Resistance【電子書籍】[ Andrea Pearson ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Illuminated here are the relationships between visual culture, faith, and gender in the courtly, monastic, and urban spheres of the early modern Burgundian Netherlands. By examining works by artists such as the Master of Mary of Burgundy, Jan van Eyck, Hans Memling, and Bernard van Orley, author Andrea Pearson identifies and explores pictorial constructions of masculinity and femininity in regard to the expectations, experiences, and practices of devotion. Specifically, she demonstrates that two of the most prominent visual genres of the period, books of hours and devotional portrait diptychs, were manipulated by patrons and spectators of both sexes to challenge and negotiate the boundaries and hierarchies of gender, and that marginalized individuals and groups appropriated the types to resist the authority of others and advance their own. Ultimately, the books and diptychs emerge as critical and often contentious sites for deliberating and transacting gender. By integrating books of hours and devotional portrait diptychs into current interdisciplinary theoretical discourse on gender, power and devotion, the author engages scholars in a range of disciplines: art history, history, religion and literature, as well as women's and men's studies.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 7,338円 |
 Re-Envisioning Global Development A Horizontal Perspective【電子書籍】[ Sandra Halperin ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Re-Envisioning Global Development offers an original conceptualisation of capitalist development from its origins to the present day.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Most approaches to understanding contemporary development assume that industrial capitalism was achieved through a process of nationally organised economic growth, and that in recent years its organisation has become increasingly trans-local or global. However, Halperin shows that nationally organised economic growth has rarely been the case ? it has only recently come to characterise a few countries and for only a few decades.＜/p＞ ＜p＞This innovative text elaborates an alternative ontology and way of thinking about global development during the last two centuries ? one linked, not to nations and regions, but to a set of essentially trans-national relations and connections. It argues that capitalist development has, everywhere and from the start, involvedーnot whole nations or societies?but only sectors or geographical areas within states. By bringing this aspect of historically ‘normal’ capitalist development into clearer focus, the book clarifies the specific conditions and circumstances that enabled European economies to pursue a more broad-based development following World War II, and what prevented a similar outcome in the contemporary ‘third world’. It also clarifies the nature, spatial extent, and circumstances of current globalising trends.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Wide-ranging and provocative, this book is required reading for advanced level students and scholars in development studies, development economics and political science.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 9,346円 |
 Envisioning America and the American Self Republican and Democratic Party Platforms, 1840-2016【電子書籍】[ Scott Appelrouth ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞This book explores the Democratic and Republican Party platforms from 1840 to 2016. As the only official, institutionally sanctioned document espousing the parties’ views on the state of the nation, the platforms present to the party faithful a diagnosis of what ails the country and the promise of possessing the necessary cure. In doing so, they offer more than a listing of specific issues in need of redress through legislative action, and moreover serve as a form of national storytelling through which political parties forge their vision of America and of what it means to be an American. Using topic modeling as an entry point into the documents, the author moves to consider more closely two related themes: those of how the platforms narrate the "American" self and individual freedom. With consideration of the extent to which the parties envision the self as an isolated economic actor or as an individual with a range of duties and obligations to a broader community, the spheres of action that they consider focal points for individual autonomy, and the extent to which they view liberty as freedom from restraint or freedom to act, this book sheds light on the historical trajectory of the growing fracture in American politics as well as the points of convergence across the two parties. Moreover, positing that behind their divisive rhetoric, both share a fundamental vision of what it means to be a "person," the author argues that perhaps their seemingly intractable differences are more a matter of degree than kind.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 3,604円 |

 Envisioning African Intersex Challenging Colonial and Racist Legacies in South African Medicine【電子書籍】[ Amanda Lock Swarr ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Since the 1600s, travelers, scientists, and doctors have claimed that “hermaphroditism” and intersex are disproportionately common among black South Africans. In ＜em＞Envisioning African Intersex＜/em＞ Amanda Lock Swarr debunks this claim by interrogating contemporary intersex medicine and demonstrating its indivisibility from colonial ideologies and scientific racism. Tracing the history of racialized research that underpins medical and scientific premises of gendered bodies, Swarr analyzes decolonial actions by intersex South Africans from the 1990s to the present, centering the work of organizers such as Sally Gross, the first openly intersex activist in Africa and a global pioneer of intersex legislation. Swarr also explores African social media activism that advocates for intersex justice and challenges the mistreatment of South African Olympian Caster Semenya. Throughout, Swarr shows how activists displace doctors’ impositions to fashion self-representation. By unseating colonial visions of gender, intersex South Africans are actively disrupting medical violence, decolonizing gender binaries, and inciting policy changes.＜/p＞ ＜p＞All author royalties from ＜em＞Envisioning African Intersex＜/em＞ will be donated to Intersex South Africa.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 2,772円 |
 Dictators, Democracy, and American Public Culture Envisioning the Totalitarian Enemy, 1920s-1950s【電子書籍】[ Benjamin L. Alpers ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Focusing on portrayals of Mussolini's Italy, Hitler's Germany, and Stalin's Russia in U.S. films, magazine and newspaper articles, books, plays, speeches, and other texts, Benjamin Alpers traces changing American understandings of dictatorship from the late 1920s through the early years of the Cold War.＜/p＞ ＜p＞During the early 1930s, most Americans' conception of dictatorship focused on the dictator. Whether viewed as heroic or horrific, the dictator was represented as a figure of great, masculine power and effectiveness. As the Great Depression gripped the United States, a few people--including conservative members of the press and some Hollywood filmmakers--even dared to suggest that dictatorship might be the answer to America's social problems.＜/p＞ ＜p＞In the late 1930s, American explanations of dictatorship shifted focus from individual leaders to the movements that empowered them. Totalitarianism became the image against which a view of democracy emphasizing tolerance and pluralism and disparaging mass movements developed. First used to describe dictatorships of both right and left, the term "totalitarianism" fell out of use upon the U.S. entry into World War II. With the war's end and the collapse of the U.S.-Soviet alliance, however, concerns about totalitarianism lay the foundation for the emerging Cold War.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 3,405円 |
 Re-envisioning the MLS Perspectives on the Future of Library and Information Science Education【電子書籍】 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞At the heart of any discussion about the future of libraries is the future of librariansーand how well our instructional programs, especially the Master of Library Science (MLS) degree, prepare them for their careers. Building on the Re-envisioning the MLS initiative from the University of Maryland’s iSchool and the Information Policy & Access Center (iPAC), this book continues the critical conversations around preparing future librarians.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Library and information science (LIS) programs are the foundation of librarianship, and their design requires input from everyone in the fieldーfrom academics designing programs and courses, to practitioners reflecting on how prepared (or unprepared) they are to serve their communities, to hiring authorities considering qualifications of candidates.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The second installment of this two-part volume explores many of the challenges and opportunities inherent in the future of the MLS degree, including＜/p＞ ＜ul＞ ＜li＞the changing nature of the communities that libraries serve and how LIS education should address these changes,＜/li＞ ＜li＞how archival training must accommodate big data,＜/li＞ ＜li＞the specialized skill sets librarians need on the job, and＜/li＞ ＜li＞how best to prepare librarians for their role as educators.＜/li＞ ＜/ul＞ ＜p＞These conversations will never be fully resolved, as LIS education must continue to evolve to ensure the efficacy of libraries and the librarians at the heart of the work.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 14,421円 |
 Re-envisioning Sovereignty The End of Westphalia?【電子書籍】[ Trudy Jacobsen ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Sovereignty, as a concept, is in a state of flux. In the course of the last century, traditional meanings have been worn away while the limitations of sovereignty have been altered as transnational issues compete with domestic concerns for precedence. This volume presents an interdisciplinary analysis of conceptions of sovereignty. Divided into six overarching elements, it explores a wide range of issues that have altered the theory and practice of state sovereignty, such as: human rights and the use of force for human protection purposes, norms relating to governance, the war on terror, economic globalization, the natural environment and changes in strategic thinking. The authors are acknowledged experts in their respective areas, and discuss the contemporary meaning and relevance of sovereignty and how it relates to the constitution of international order.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 8,945円 |
