Описание: Geared to diversity practitioners and multicultural affairs professionals, Nexus: Complicating and Centering the Self presents a case study of how cross-cultural centers can work successfully on university campuses.The book critically explores the establishment and growth of a campus cross-cultural center through the memories and voices of those who left their marks on the center and on the university. It sheds light on questions about the significant experiences of those who pass through such centers during their time on campus, the community building these spaces create, and the continued dialogue on intra and interpersonal coalition building on college campuses. Readers learn about the inner workings and energies of such an organization, and the potential effectiveness centers have on campus climate and retention in higher education settings. Nexus: Complicating and Centering the Self offers valuable insight to those studying diversity in higher education, student development theory and practice, or the practice and praxis of cultural centers.

Описание: The series Histories of Anthropology Annual presents diverse perspectives on the discipline’s history within a global context, with a goal of increasing the awareness and use of historical approaches in teaching, learning, and conducting anthropology. The series includes critical, comparative, analytical, and narrative studies involving all aspects and subfields of anthropology.
Volume 14, Centering the Margins of Anthropology’s History, focuses on the conscious recognition of margins and suggests it is time to bring the margins to the center, both in terms of a changing theoretical openness and a supporting body of scholarship—if not to problematize the very dichotomy of center and margins itself.
The essays explore two major themes of anthropology’s margins. First, anthropologists and historians have long sought out marginalized and forgotten ancestors, arguing for their present-day relevance and offering explanations for the lack of attention to their contributions to theory, analysis, methods, and findings. Second, anthropologists and their historians have explored a range of genres to present their results in provocative and open-ended formats. This volume closes with an experimental essay that offers a dynamic, multifaceted perspective that captures one of the dominant (if sometimes marginalized) voices in history of anthropology. Steven O. Murray’s career developed at the institutional margins of several academic disciplines and activist discourses, but his distinctive voice has been, and will remain, at the center of our history.
Описание: Centering Epistemic Injustice asks what it means for accounts of epistemic injustice to take seriously the lives and perspectives of socially marginalized knowers and the strategies that marginalized knowers use to circumvent persistent testimonial injustice.
