Описание:
Uniting twelve original studies by scholars of early modern history, literature, and the arts, this collection is the first that foregrounds the dialectical quality of early modern Orientalism by taking a broad interdisciplinary perspective. Dialectics of Orientalism demonstrates how texts and images of the sixteenth and seventeenth century from across Europe and the New World are better understood as part of a dynamic and transformative orientalist discourse rather than a manifestation of the supposed dichotomy between the 'East' and the 'West.' The volume's central claim is that early modern orientalist discourses are fundamentally open, self-critical, and creative. Analyzing a varied corpus-from German and Dutch travelogues to Spanish humanist treaties, French essays, Flemish paintings, and English diaries-this collection thus breathes fresh air into the critique of Orientalism and provides productive new perspectives for the study of east-west and indeed globalized exchanges in the early modern world.

Описание:
Contributions to this volume summarize and discuss the theoretical foundations of the Collaborative Research Centre at Leipzig University which address the relationship between processes of (re-)spatialization on the one hand and the establishment and characteristics of spatial formats on the other hand. Under the global condition spatial formats are products of collective negotiations on the most effective and widely acceptable balance between the claim for sovereignty and the need for interconnectedness.
1970s South Korea is characterized by many as the "dark age for democracy." Most scholarship on South Korea's democracy movement and civil society has focused on the "student revolution" in 1960 and the large protest cycles in the 1980s which were followed by Korea's transition to democracy in 1987. But in his groundbreaking work of political and social history of 1970s South Korea, Paul Chang highlights the importance of understanding the emergence and evolution of the democracy movement in this oft-ignored decade.
Protest Dialectics journeys back to 1970s South Korea and provides readers with an in-depth understanding of the numerous events in the 1970s that laid the groundwork for the 1980s democracy movement and the formation of civil society today. Chang shows how the narrative of the 1970s as democracy's "dark age" obfuscates the important material and discursive developments that became the foundations for the movement in the 1980s which, in turn, paved the way for the institutionalization of civil society after transition in 1987. To correct for these oversights in the literature and to better understand the origins of South Korea's vibrant social movement sector this book presents a comprehensive analysis of the emergence and evolution of the democracy movement in the 1970s.

Описание:
Societies and politics of Eastern Europe are currently renegotiating their global entanglements and participation in international affairs in fundamental and seemingly contradictory ways. This volume aims at a deeper understanding of this process by means of historical analyses of four dimen-sions which have for long been core areas of the repositioning in the world and transformations in the region. At the same time it seeks to make a conceptual contribution to the new field of stud-ies examining the transregional connections in the history of East Central Europe.
Despite the increasing interest in exploring the global connectedness of the region and in developing comparative questions, the literature on the subject is scattered and fragmented across different disciplines. Complicating the matter, Eastern Europe has for long been studied with normative preconceptions and imaginations that are grounded in dominant theories on international relations, modernization and development which are deeply influenced by conceptual Eurocentrism and methodological national-ism. Examples of such normative assumptions are that the region exists sui generis or that its trajectory is determined by an alleged lateness in modernization processes and unfavourable geopolitical posi-tion. There is the danger that these notions are (implicitly) reproduced in the efforts of globalizing our understanding of the region. Linked to that, we are confronted with opposing narratives in terms of the capacity of East Central European actors to transnationalize and transregionalize their agendas and activities. For example, in cultural and scientific domains often longstanding and seemingly persistent ties within and across the region are highlighted, while for the participation in international organisa-tions mostly a limited scope of action is attested due to the fact that sovereign nation-states had an ambivalent fate.
All together, the volume presents source-based insights on the role of transregional connections in the history of East Central Europe in four dimensions of past and present positioning in the world with the aim to contribute to deeper understanding of how societies in the region responded to the global condi-tion, that is how they transformed their political orders by ways of integrating in cross-border and transregional connections and constellations.

An up-close look at the education arms race of after-school learning, academic competitions, and the perceived failure of even our best schools to educate children
Beyond soccer leagues, music camps, and drama lessons, today’s youth are in an education arms race that begins in elementary school. In Hyper Education, Pawan Dhingra uncovers the growing world of high-achievement education and the after-school learning centers, spelling bees, and math competitions that it has spawned. It is a world where immigrant families vie with other Americans to be at the head of the class, putting in hours of studying and testing in order to gain a foothold in the supposed meritocracy of American public education. A world where enrichment centers, like Kumon, have seen 194 percent growth since 2002 and target children as young as three. Even families and teachers who avoid after-school academics are getting swept up.
Drawing on over 100 in-depth interviews with teachers, tutors, principals, children, and parents, Dhingra delves into the why people participate in this phenomenon and examines how schools, families, and communities play their part. Moving past "Tiger Mom" stereotypes, he addresses why Asian American and white families practice what he calls "hyper education" and whether or not it makes sense.
By taking a behind-the-scenes look at the Scripps National Spelling Bee, other national competitions, and learning centers, Dhingra shows why good schools, good grades, and good behavior are seen as not enough for high-achieving students and their parents and why the education arms race is likely to continue to expand.
