Rethinking Japanese Studies Eurocentrism and the Asia-Pacific Region【電子書籍】
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Japanese Studies has provided a fertile space for non-Eurocentric analysis for a number of reasons. It has been embroiled in the long-running internal debate over the so-called Nihonjinron, revolving around the extent to which the effective interpretation of Japanese society and culture requires non-Western, Japan-specific emic concepts and theories. This book takes this question further and explores how we can understand Japanese society and culture by combining Euro-American concepts and theories with those that originate in Japan. Because Japan is the only liberal democracy to have achieved a high level of capitalism outside the Western cultural framework, Japanese Studies has long provided a forum for deliberations about the extent to which the Western conception of modernity is universally applicable. Furthermore, because of Japan’s military, economic and cultural dominance in Asia at different points in the last century, Japanese Studies has had to deal with the issues of Japanocentrism as well as Eurocentrism, a duality requiring complex and nuanced analysis.</p> <p>This book identifies variations amongst Japanese Studies academic communities in the Asia-Pacific and examines the extent to which relatively autonomous scholarship, intellectual approach or theories exist in the region. It also evaluates how studies on Japan in the region contribute to global Japanese Studies and explores their potential for formulating concrete strategies to unsettle Eurocentric dominance of the discipline.</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。

Surviving Modern Yoga Cult Dynamics, Charismatic Leaders, and What Survivors Can Teach Us【電子書籍】[ Matthew Remski ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>**Grounded in investigative research and real survivor stories, <em>Surviving Modern Yoga</em> uncovers the physical and sexual abuse perpetrated by Ashtanga yoga leader Pattabhi Joisーand reckons with the culture, structures, and mythos that enabled it.</p> <p>The revised edition of <em>Practice and All is Coming</em> from Conspirituality co-host Matthew Remski**</p> <p>Yoga culture sells well-meaning westerners the full package: physical health, good vibes, and spiritual growth. Here, investigative journalist Matthew Remski explores how cultic dynamics, institutional self-interest, and spiritualized indifference collude to obscure the truth: Harm happens in plain sight.</p> <p>Through in-depth interviews, insider analysis, and Remski’s own history with high-demand groups, <em><strong>Surviving Modern Yoga</strong></em> brings to light how we’re each susceptible to cult abuse and exploitation. He shows how, with the right kind of situational vulnerability and the wrong kind of guru, the ideas we hold close about ourselvesーlike <em>It wouldn’t happen to me</em> or <em>I’d speak up for victims</em>ーfail to protect us.</p> <p>Remski reckons with his own complicity in spiritual power dynamics, and shares how a process of disillusionment allowed him to recognize harm. He does the same for readers, peeling back the veneer of yoga marketing to reveal the abuse, assault, and silencing perpetrated against seekers who trusted Jois as a mentor, their <em>guruji</em>ーeven a father figure. Each survivor speaks in their own words, on their own terms, reclaiming agency against an insular, in-group culture that enabled a charismatic leader’s devastating harmーand positioned him as its only remedy.</p> <p><em><strong>Surviving Modern Yoga</strong></em> also includes practical tools to help readers:</p> <ul> <li>Understand how high-demand groups trap would-be targets</li> <li>Evaluate their own situational vulnerabilities</li> <li>Learn to listen for loaded, red-flag language</li> <li>Cultivate their literacy of cult tactics</li> </ul>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。

Tourism and Indigenous Peoples【電子書籍】[ Richard Butler ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Tourism and Indigenous Peoples is a unique text examining the role of indigenous societies in tourism and how they interact within the tourism nexus. Unlike other publications, this text focuses on the active role that indigenous peoples take in the industry, and uses international case studies and experiences to provide a global context to illustrate best practice and aid comparison. First published over ten years ago the editors, Butler and Hinch, have thoroughly revised and updated the text to bring together a new collection of contributions and case studies from recognised international authors and those with first hand experiences in this area. Divided into five main sections, the text looks at this topic under the following headings: * Involvement: Uses case studies to discuss and compare such as ‘campfire’ programmes in east Africa, and the employment of indigenous peoples as guides, amongst other cases, * Turbulence: Host guest relationships, conflicts on communities and contrasting strategies and results of tourism in indigenous villages in South Africa * Issues: Discusses issues such as authenticity, religious beliefs and managing indigenous tourism in a fragile environment * Progress: Looks at tourism education, tourism and cultural survival and examples of the policy and practice of indigenous tourism. * Conclusions: Five contributions from indigenous people on North America, Australasia and Europe to discuss implications and experiences. Each section uses international case studies from, for example, Australia, New Zealand, Nepal, Namibia, Thailand, Saudi Arabia and South America.</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。

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><strong>100% scientifically-proven ways to make friends quickly, turn enemies into friends, gain trust, and <em>be flat-out likable</em>.</strong><br /> Utilize the most interesting, shocking, and counterintuitive findings in psychological science to simply make people want to be around you.<strong>The Science of Likability</strong> takes over 67 seminal scientific and psychological studies and breaks them down into real, usable guidelines and tips to create the presence you have always wanted. Every piece of advice in this book to increase your social standing and likability factor is 100% backed by in-depth, peer-reviewed research, and it goes far beyond simple common sense and intuition.</p> <p><strong>Learn how to subconsciously make yourself likable, trustworthy, and intelligent.</strong><br /> You can get a new haircut and wardrobe, and you even learn knock-knock jokes. But likability is something more. It's subconscious, and it's about the small signs that signal our brains to let their guards down, seek others out, and embrace them. We know what to do if we want to make someone hate us - we now also know what to do to become someone's favorite person.</p> <p><strong>Understand what makes people tick, and strategically give it to them.</strong><br /> There are seminal studies from (in)famous researchers such as Sigmund Freud, Ivan Pavlov, Stanley Schachter, and Daniel Goleman, but also the most up-to-date discoveries from 2022 - all insightful, analytical, sometimes surprising, but most importantly effective and actionable. Pair that with the insight and human intelligence factor of bestselling author and social skills coach Patrick King, and you have a guide that can be read equally for education as for helpful, real advice. Patrick's writing draws of a variety of sources, from scientific research, academic experience, coaching, and real life experience.</p> <p>How to take advantage of people's memories for your sense of charm.</p> <p><strong>The power of equity in relationships and friendships.</strong></p> <p>A literal formula for "friendship chemistry."</p> <p><strong>The real way to use eye contact to build trust.</strong></p> <p>Why tripping and being vulnerable in front of people is positive.</p> <p><strong>Universal definitions of charisma, wit, and humor - seriously. Universal.</strong></p> <p>How to look at, and touch someone effectively to generate attraction.</p> <p><strong>Being likable unlocks the doors to everything you want in life.</strong><br /> A better career? You better believe that the people with the most promotions and highest salaries aren't just the most qualified. Better love life? Being likable makes you a potential love interest to anyone you want. Better relationships and friendships? Not only that, but you open the door to people wanting to be friends with you. Likability is the hidden force that makes people appear to be lucky in life and receive more opportunities than they know what to do with. Likability drives us forward, not intelligence or luck.</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。

Transhumanism Evolutionary Futurism and the Human Technologies of Utopia【電子書籍】[ Andrew Pilsch ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Transhumanism posits that humanity is on the verge of rapid evolutionary change as a result of emerging technologies and increased global consciousness. However, this insight is dismissed as a naive and controversial reframing of posthumanist thought, having also been vilified as “the most dangerous idea in the world” by Francis Fukuyama. In this book, Andrew Pilsch counters these critiques, arguing instead that transhumanism’s utopian rhetoric actively imagines radical new futures for the species and its habitat.</p> <p>Pilsch situates contemporary transhumanism within the longer history of a rhetorical mode he calls “evolutionary futurism” that unifies diverse texts, philosophies, and theories of science and technology that anticipate a radical explosion in humanity’s cognitive, physical, and cultural potentialities. By conceptualizing transhumanism as a rhetoric, as opposed to an obscure group of fringe figures, he explores the intersection of three major paradigms shaping contemporary Western intellectual life: cybernetics, evolutionary biology, and spiritualism. In analyzing this collision, his work traces the belief in a digital, evolutionary, and collective future through a broad range of texts written by theologians and mystics, biologists and computer scientists, political philosophers and economic thinkers, conceptual artists and Golden Age science fiction writers. Unearthing the long history of evolutionary futurism, Pilsch concludes, allows us to more clearly see the novel contributions that transhumanism offers for escaping our current geopolitical bind by inspiring radical utopian thought.</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。

Wagnerism Art and Politics in the Shadow of Music【電子書籍】[ Alex Ross ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><strong>Alex Ross, renowned <em>New Yorker</em> music critic and author of the international bestseller and Pulitzer Prize finalist <em>The Rest Is Noise</em>, reveals how Richard Wagner became the proving ground for modern art and politicsーan aesthetic war zone where the Western world wrestled with its capacity for beauty and violence.</strong></p> <p>For better or worse, Wagner is the most widely influential figure in the history of music. Around 1900, the phenomenon known as Wagnerism saturated European and American culture. Such colossal creations as <em>The Ring of the Nibelung</em>, <em>Tristan und Isolde</em>, and <em>Parsifal</em> were models of formal daring, mythmaking, erotic freedom, and mystical speculation. A mighty procession of artists, including Virginia Woolf, Thomas Mann, Paul C?zanne, Isadora Duncan, and Luis Bu?uel, felt his impact. Anarchists, occultists, feminists, and gay-rights pioneers saw him as a kindred spirit. Then Adolf Hitler incorporated Wagner into the soundtrack of Nazi Germany, and the composer came to be defined by his ferocious antisemitism. For many, his name is now almost synonymous with artistic evil.</p> <p>In <em>Wagnerism</em>, Alex Ross restores the magnificent confusion of what it means to be a Wagnerian. A pandemonium of geniuses, madmen, charlatans, and prophets do battle over Wagner’s many-sided legacy. As readers of his brilliant articles for <em>The New Yorker</em> have come to expect, Ross ranges thrillingly across artistic disciplines, from the architecture of Louis Sullivan to the novels of Philip K. Dick, from the Zionist writings of Theodor Herzl to the civil-rights essays of W.E.B. Du Bois, from <em>O Pioneers!</em> to <em>Apocalypse Now</em>.</p> <p>In many ways, <em>Wagnerism</em> tells a tragic tale. An artist who might have rivaled Shakespeare in universal reach is undone by an ideology of hate. Still, his shadow lingers over twenty-first century culture, his mythic motifs coursing through superhero films and fantasy fiction. Neither apologia nor condemnation, <em>Wagnerism</em> is a work of passionate discovery, urging us toward a more honest idea of how art acts in the world.</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。

The Principles of Secularism Redefining Society: A Rational Approach to Secularism and Progress【電子書籍】[ George Jacob Holyoake ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>In "The Principles of Secularism," George Jacob Holyoake meticulously articulates the foundations and ramifications of secular thought in the context of a rapidly modernizing society. The book is a cornerstone of secular philosophy, characterized by its analytical prose, fortified by Holyoake'??s deft use of historical examples and contemporary social critiques. He engages with religious beliefs critically, advocating for a moral framework independent of religious dogma, while exploring the implications of this stance on individual liberty and societal governance during the 19th century'??a period marked by profound social upheaval and the decline of theistic authority. George Jacob Holyoake, a prominent Victorian social reformer, was a pivotal figure in the secular movement and a staunch advocate for socialism and cooperative societies. His experiences, including his early exposure to the limitations imposed by religious orthodoxy and his engagement in political activism, profoundly shaped his vision of a world where reason and humanism preside over superstition and dogma. These experiences inform his writing, making "The Principles of Secularism" not only a philosophical treatise but also a call to action against the constraints of religious institutions. This book is essential reading for anyone interested in the interplay between religion and modernity. Holyoake'??s persuasive arguments and analytical rigor provide an invaluable foundation for understanding secularism'??s role in contemporary discussions about ethics, governance, and human rights. Readers will find themselves challenged to reconsider traditional beliefs and inspired to embrace a more reasoned and equitable worldview.</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。

Tourism and Sustainable Community Development【電子書籍】
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>As the tourist industry becomes increasingly important to communities around the world, the need to develop tourism in a sustainable manner has also become a primary concern. This impressive collection of international case studies addresses this crucial issue by asking what local communities can contribute to sustainable tourism, and what sustainability can offer these local communities in return. The role of the community in environmental, cultural and economic sustainability is highlighted in an extraordinary variety of contexts, ranging from inner-city Edinburgh to rural northern Portugal and the beaches of Indonesia.</p> <p>Individually, the investigations in this text present a wealth of original research and source material, while collectively, they illuminate and clarify the term 'community' - the meaning of which, it is argued, is vital to understanding how sustainable tourism development can be implemented in practice.</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。

The Charisma Machine The Life, Death, and Legacy of One Laptop per Child【電子書籍】[ Morgan G. Ames ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><strong>A fascinating examination of technological utopianism and its complicated consequences.</strong></p> <p>In <em>The Charisma Machine</em>, Morgan Ames chronicles the life and legacy of the One Laptop per Child project and explains whyーdespite its failuresーthe same utopian visions that inspired OLPC still motivate other projects trying to use technology to “disrupt” education and development.</p> <p>Announced in 2005 by MIT Media Lab cofounder Nicholas Negroponte, One Laptop per Child promised to transform the lives of children across the Global South with a small, sturdy, and cheap laptop computer, powered by a hand crank. In reality, the project fell short in many waysーstarting with the hand crank, which never materialized. Yet the project remained charismatic to many who were captivated by its claims of access to educational opportunities previously out of reach. Behind its promises, OLPC, like many technology projects that make similarly grand claims, had a fundamentally flawed vision of who the computer was made for and what role technology should play in learning.</p> <p>Drawing on fifty years of history and a seven-month study of a model OLPC project in Paraguay, Ames reveals that the laptops were not only frustrating to use, easy to break, and hard to repair, they were designed for “technically precocious <em>boys</em>”ーidealized younger versions of the developers themselvesーrather than the children who were actually using them. <em>The Charisma Machine</em> offers a cautionary tale about the allure of technology hype and the problems that result when utopian dreams drive technology development.</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。

Understanding Boko Haram Terrorism and Insurgency in Africa【電子書籍】
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>The primary objective of this book is to understand the nature of the Boko Haram insurgency in northeast Nigeria.</p> <p>Boko Haram’s goal of an Islamic Caliphate, starting in the Borno State in the North East that will eventually cover the areas of the former Kanem-Borno Empire, is a rejection of the modern state system forced on it by the West. The central theme of this volume examines the relationship between the failure of the state-building project in Nigeria and the outbreak and nature of insurgency. At the heart of the Boko Haram phenomenon is a country racked with cleavages, making it hard for Nigeria to cohere as a modern state. Part I introduces this theme and places the Boko Haram insurgency in a historical context. There are, however, multiple cleavages in Nigeria ? ethnic, regional, cultural, and religious ? and Part II examines the different state-society dynamics fuelling the conflict. Political grievances are common to every society; however, what gives Boko Haram the space to express such grievances through violence? Importantly, this volume demonstrates that the insurgency is, in fact, a reflection of the hollowness within Nigeria’s overall security. Part III looks at the responses to Boko Haram by Nigeria, neighbouring states, and external actors. For Western actors, Boko Haram is seen as part of the "global war on terror" and the fact that it has pledged allegiance to ISIS encourages this framing. However, as the chapters here discuss, this is an over-simplification of Boko Haram and the West needs to address the multiple dimension of Boko Haram.</p> <p>This book will be of much interest to students of terrorism and political violence, insurgencies, African politics, war and conflict studies, and IR in general.</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。

Barbarism and Religion: Volume 5, Religion: The First Triumph【電子書籍】[ J. G. A. Pocock ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>This fifth volume in John Pocock's acclaimed sequence on Barbarism and Religion turns to the controversy caused by Edward Gibbon's treatment of the early Christian church. Examining this controversy in unprecedented depth, Pocock challenges the assumption that Gibbon wrote with the intention of destroying belief in the Christian revelation, and questions our understanding of the character of 'enlightenment'. Reconsidering the genesis, inception and reception of these crucial chapters of Decline and Fall, Pocock explores the response of Gibbon's critics, affirming that his reputation as an unbeliever was established before his history of the Church had been written. The magnitude of Barbarism and Religion is already apparent. Religion: The First Triumph will be read not just as a remarkable analysis of the making of Decline and Fall, but also as a comment on the collision of belief and disbelief, a subject as pertinent now as it was to Gibbon's eighteenth-century readers.</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。

Civil Disorder, Domestic Terrorism and Education Policy The Context in England and France【電子書籍】[ Jonathan S. James ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>This book explores the links between education policy and occurrences of civil disorder and domestic terrorism in England and France. Since 2001, both England and France have experienced outbreaks of rioting in which young people of immigrant origin have been implicated: both have also been the targets of domestic terror attacks perpetrated by their own citizens. Both countries have had similar experiences of immigration since the end of the Second World War, but they are considered to have taken divergent approaches to immigrant integration and education. While Britain has tended towards a multicultural race relations approach, France veers towards a Republican assimilationist approach. Through the analysis of policy discourse and documents, the authors seek to establish whether these distinct approaches to immigrant integration and education policy have been maintained or whether they are converging. This book will appeal to students and scholars of education policy as well as immigration and integration in both France and England.</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。

<p>This sixth and final volume in John Pocock's acclaimed sequence of works on Barbarism and Religion examines Volumes II and III of Edward Gibbon's Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, carrying Gibbon's narrative to the end of empire in the west. It makes two general assertions: first, that this is in reality a mosaic of narratives, written on diverse premises and never fully synthesized with one another; and second, that these chapters assert a progress of both barbarism and religion from east to west, leaving much history behind as they do so. The magnitude of Barbarism and Religion is already apparent. Barbarism: Triumph in the West represents the culmination of a remarkable attempt to discover and present what Gibbon was saying, what he meant by it, and why he said it in the ways that he did, as well as an unparalleled contribution to the historiography of Enlightened Europe.</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。

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>What if charisma could be taught?</p> <p>For the first time, science and technology have taken charisma apart, figured it out and turned it into an applied science: In controlled laboratory experiments, researchers could raise or lower people's level of charisma as if they were turning a dial.</p> <p>What you'll find here is practical magic: unique knowledge, drawn from a variety of sciences, revealing what charisma really is and how it works. You'll get both the insights and the techniques you need to apply this knowledge. The world will become your lab, and every person you meet, a chance to experiment.</p> <p><em>The Charisma Myth</em> is a mix of fun stories, sound science, and practical tools. Cabane takes a hard scientific approach to a heretofore mystical topic, covering what charisma actually is, how it is learned, what its side effects are, and how to handle them.</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。

A Defence of the Inquiry into Mesmerism & Phrenology chiefly in relation to recent events in Lynn Exploring Mesmerism and Phrenology in 19th-Century Context【電子書籍】[ William Armes ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>In "A Defence of the Inquiry into Mesmerism & Phrenology chiefly in relation to recent events in Lynn," William Armes presents a compelling examination of the burgeoning fields of mesmerism and phrenology, contextualized within the socio-political climate of his time. Armes utilizes a scholarly yet accessible literary style, weaving narrative and empirical analysis to debunk myths and highlight the significance of these practices in understanding human behavior and mental processes. His arguments are meticulously structured, addressing recent local events in Lynn that catalyzed public interest and skepticism about these controversial sciences, making the work an essential inquiry into early psychological thought. William Armes, a prominent figure in the intellectual circles of the 19th century, was profoundly influenced by the intersection of science, philosophy, and social reform. His engagement with mesmerism and phrenology'??two disciplines that were both revered and ridiculed'??reflected his broader commitment to exploring the capacities of the human mind. This background informs his thorough critique and defense, grounded in a desire to advocate for intellectual rigor and open-mindedness. Readers interested in the historical foundations of psychology or the interplay between science and society will find Armes' work invaluable. His insightful analysis of mesmerism and phrenology invites a re-examination of these disciplines, fostering an appreciation for their contributions to contemporary understandings of human behavior. This book serves both as a historical document and a call for thoughtful inquiry.</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。
