Описание: This accessible text on social research methodology teaches students of sociology and related disciplines how standard methods can be adapted toward critical ends. The second edition has been updated throughout to incorporate the latest critical scholarship, enhanced discussion of qualitative methods, new material on global issues, sex/sexuality/gender, new discussion of intersectionality, how social media can shape research, and more. Author Joey Sprague describes and evaluates a wide array of methodological options--from quantitative to qualitative--and explores the links between epistemology and methodology.

Описание: At least six different Universal Basic Income (UBI) experiments are underway or planned right now in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Finland, and Kenya. Several more countries are considering conducting experiments. Yet, there seems to be more interest simply in having UBI experiments than in exactly what we want to learn from them. Although experiments can produce a lot of relevant data about UBI, they are crucially limited in their ability to enlighten our understanding of the big questions that bear on the discussion of whether to implement UBI as a national or regional policy. And, past experience shows that results of UBI experiments are particularly vulnerable misunderstanding, sensationalism, and spin. This book examines the difficulties of conducting a UBI experiment and reporting the results in ways that successfully improve public understanding of the probable effects of a national UBI. The book makes recommendations how researchers, reporters, citizens, and policymakers can avoid these problems and get the most out of UBI experiments.

Описание: Literature has always played a central role in creating and disseminating culturally specific notions of citizenship, nationhood, and belonging. In this study, Kathy-Ann Tan investigates metaphors, configurations, parameters, and articulations of US and Canadian citizenship that are enacted, renegotiated, and revised in modern literary texts, particularly during periods of emergence and crisis.
Florence Helena McGillivray, 1864-1938, was an extremely talented and prolific Canadian artist, and an accomplished educator. She was one of the most well traveled female artists in Canada during the late 19th and early 20th century. Florence's skills as an artist were varied and effective. She worked confidently in many styles and media. The influence of Post Impressionism can be seen in her work, but she was a free spirit, incorporating many different techniques and never attaching herself to any one particular movement.

Forster and F.M. Bell-Smith were among her mentors. Women such as Mary E. Dignam, Laura Muntz-Lyall and Marion Long influenced her work. In Paris she studied with Simon and Menard and was affected by the works of Henri Matisse, Frederic Fiebig and expat Canadian J.W. Morrice.
Florence was raised in Whitby Ontario with her thirteen siblings, within a successful and prosperous pioneer family of Scottish decent. She taught art at Pickering College and Ontario Ladies College early in her career before she dedicated herself to her own artistic endeavours. Florence mentored many young artists and offered advice and encouragement to the great Canadian painter Tom Thomson. Her paintings would have an effect on members of the Group of Seven and the development of the Canadian Modernist Movement.
In her Time Florence was accepted as an important artist and her works were shown nationally and internationally. she was a member of numerous art associations including Ontario Society of Artists, Royal Canadian Academy, Canadian Society of Painters in Watercolour, Women's Art Association of Canada, Heliconian Club, New York Society of Women Painters and Sculptors and the international Artists Union. She traveled Canada, United States, Europe and the Caribbean in search of her landscapes.
In this biography readers will discover the life and times and artistic accomplishments of this great Canadian artist to establish for themselves her place in Canadian art history.
