Описание: By examining the fiction of three women modernists--Willa Cather, Gertrude Stein, and Nella Larsen--this book complicates binary paradigms of national, gender, and ethnic identities in the interwar period. In place of essentializing categories of identity, Jessica Rabin explores the liberating and dislocating ramifications of using multiple subject positions as a means of representing identity. While these three authors have been studied in non-intersecting categories (pioneer literature, high modernism, and the Harlem Renaissance, respectively), Jessica Rabin traces their similarities, showing how the dispersal of fixed identities are facilitated by the language of fiction.

Описание: Randy Bishop a veteran cop in the early 70's, chose to remain in a Philadelphia neighborhood he was originally assigned, rather than climb the ladder of promotions. He realized over time, the job of policing became much easier, having gained the trust of the locals. After 18 years of working police cars and a police wagon in the same area, he was offered a steady day-work assignment. It was a foot beat on Frankford Avenue, a business district situated under the loom of the elevated train that traveled to and from center city. The elevated train station in the center of the beat, was a hub to busses and trollies coming from other parts of the city. That in itself, would give you an idea of the amount of people he came in contact with daily. He had a reputation of being objective when dealing with the public, and at times he would be asked by younger cops, his opinion about an assignment. Sometimes their questions would carry into their personal lives, and they were questions he always tried to avoid. He had a series of encounters with a police woman named Delores Johnson, whose nick name was Champ. Against his better judgement, he listens to her problem. As he becomes more involved, he's surprised to hear Champ's problems were many. Seemingly not being able to get her life on track, she deepens Randy's involvement. After she goes missing for a few days, she's found dead by a gun shot wound, in a small bathroom in the basement of the district they worked. Was it suicide? Many questions would have to be answered.

Описание: The Americas are witnessing an era of unprecedented human mobility. With their families or unaccompanied, children are part of this immense movement of people. Children Crossing Borders explores the different meanings of the lives of borderland children in the Americas. It addresses migrant children’s struggle to build a sense of belonging while they confront racism and estrangement on a daily basis.
Unified in their common interest in the well-being of children, the contributors bring an unrivaled breadth of experience and research to offer a transnational, multidimensional, and multilayered look at migrant childhoods in Latin America. Organized around three main themes—educational experiences; literature, art and culture, and media depictions; and the principle of the “best interest of the child”—this work offers both theoretical and practical approaches to the complexity of migrant childhood. The essays discuss family and school lives, children’s experience as wage laborers, and the legislation and policies that affect migrants.
This volume draws much-needed attention to the plight of migrant children and their families, illuminating the human and emotional toll that children experience as they crisscross the Americas. Exploring the connections between education, policy, cultural studies, and anthropology, the essays in this volume navigate a space of transnational children’s rights central to Latin American life in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries.

Описание: The crossing of national state borders is one of the most-discussed issues of contemporary times and it poses many challenges for individual and collective identities. This concerns both short-distance mobility as well as long-distance migration. Choosing to move - or not - across international borders is a complex decision, involving both cognitive and emotional processes. This book tests the approach that three crucial thresholds need to be crossed before mobility occurs; the individual’s mindset about migrating, the choice of destination and perception of crossing borders to that location and the specific routes and spatial trajectories available to get there. Thus both borders and trajectories can act as thresholds to spatial moves. The threshold approach, with its focus on processes affecting whether, when and where to move, aims to understand the decision-making process in all its dimensions, in the hope that this will lead to a better understanding of the ways migrants conceive, perceive and undertake their transnational journeys. This book examines the three constitutive parts discerned in the cross-border mobility decision-making process: people, borders and trajectories and their interrelationships. Illustrated by a global range of case studies, it demonstrates that the relation between the three is not fixed but flexible and that decision-making contains aspects of belonging, instability, security and volatility affecting their mobility or immobility.
