Описание: In order for the US Supreme Court to retain its integrity and legitimacy, it needs to reflect society`s commitment to diversity and inclusion. Brooks argues that the Court decides cases within a framework of judicial legitimacy that is rooted not in today`s society, but in eighteenth-century Anglo-American culture.

Описание: What role does linguistic diversity play in European democratic and legal processes? Is it an obstacle to deliberative democracy and a hindrance to legal certainty, or a cultural and economic asset and a prerequisite for the free movement of citizens? This book examines the tensions and contradictions of European language laws and policy from a multi-disciplinary perspective. With contributions from leading researchers in EU law and legal theory, political science, sociology, sociolinguistic and cognitive linguistics, it combines mutually exclusive and competing perspectives of linguistic diversity. The work will be a valuable resource for academics and researchers in the areas of European law, legal theory and linguistics.
Creating Postwar Canada showcases new research on this complex period, exploring postwar Canada’s diverse symbols and battlegrounds. Contributors to the first half of the collection consider evolving definitions of the nation, examining the ways in which Canada was reimagined to include both the Canadian North and landscapes structured by trade and commerce. The essays in the latter half analyze debates on shopping hours, professional striptease, the “provider” role of fathers, interracial adoption, sexuality on campus, and illegal drug use, issues that shaped how the country defined itself in sociocultural and political terms. This collection contributes to the historiography of nationalism, gender and the family, consumer cultures, and countercultures.

Описание: Black Greek Letter Organizations (BGLOs) arose in the early 20th century in response to racial and social exclusion encountered by Black students on college campuses and within historically White fraternities. Founded and formulated around the ideas of Black community, uplift, and independence, the invitation of non-Blacks into these BGLOs raise important questions about the opportunity for membership in these organizations to impact those for whom the space was not originally intended. Using this as a starting point, Breaking the Line asks: How is the color line built and maintained in the contemporary college environment? What role do BGLOs play on college campuses in the 21st century? What happens when individuals cross color lines by joining Greek letter organizations that differ from their own race? How does this identification process and experience shape their racial identification? How do non-Black members make sense of their experiences as BGLO members? Finally, how does membership affect non-Black members beyond college? Although BGLOs may be seen as resource-rich organizations that distribute material resources to traditionally marginalized and under-networked Black members, Breaking the Line argues that symbolic identities, belonging, and boundary work are also being accomplished in these organizations. Whereas these symbolic boundaries are not directly observable, they manifest in the stories people use to make sense of their actions. Through thirty-four in-depth interviews, Laybourn and Goss observe how non-Black BGLO members define themselves in relation to others and how they go about the ongoing accomplishment of identity work in their majority-Black networks and communities.

Contributed by leading scholars of Quebec Studies, both emerging and established, the 30 essays of this comprehensive collection offer a multidisciplinary survey of the study of diversity in Quebec over space and time. The volume is organized around a variety of themes through which Quebec’s plural reality is expressed, including conceptual, historical and contemporary approaches, covering a wide range of social and economic cleavages, identity markers, political contestation and, broadly, the lived experiences of Quebecers negotiating difference over time. In an environment increasingly demarcated by conflicts around values and cultural and social practices, this collection hopes to contribute to broadening the spectrum of voices to the current debate, adding an inclusive reflection to a conversation that has only intensified over the last decade. Quebec as a pluri-national and multi-ethnic society has been and remains a great laboratory to study and to test public policies on ethnic diversity. It allows us to identify the tensions and to evaluate the balance between the majority and the minority; and between settler society and indigenous nations, in conceptualizing and finding a normative consensus around the configuration of collective rights. In short, the contributions in this volume seek to illustrate how pluralism has and continues to constitute the lifeblood of belonging in Quebec.
