Описание:
We regard genocidal violence as worse than other sorts of violence—perhaps the worst there is. But what does this say about what we value about the genos on which nations are said to be founded? This is an urgent question for democracies. We value the mode of being in time that anchors us in the past and in the future, that is, among those who have been and those who might yet be. If the genos is a group constituted by this generational time, the demos was invented as the anti-genos, with no criterion of inheritance and instead only occurring according to the interruption of revolutionary time. Insofar as the demos persists, we experience it as a sort of genos, for example, the democratic nation state. As a result, democracies are caught is a bind, disavowing genos-thinking while cherishing the temporal forms of genos-life; they abhor genocidal violence but perpetuate and disguise it. This is the genocide paradox. O’Byrne traces the problem through our commitment to existential categories from Aristotle to the life taxonomies of Linneaus and Darwin, through anthropologies of kinship that tether us to the social world, the shortfalls of ethical theory, into the history of democratic theory and the defensive tactics used by real existing democracies when it came to defining genocide for the U.N. Genocide Convention. She argues that, although models of democracy all make room for contestation, they fail to grasp its generational structure or acknowledge the generational content of our lives. They cultivate ignorance of the contingency and precarity of the relations that create and sustain us. The danger of doing so is immense. It leaves us unprepared for confronting democracy’s deficits and its struggle to entertain multiple temporalities. In addition, it leaves us unprepared for understanding the relation between demos and violence, and the ability of good enough citizens to tolerate the slow-burning destruction of marginalized peoples. What will it take to envision an anti-genocidal democracy?

Описание:
Social media is now ever-present and increasingly important in many areas of our daily lives, which means that a critical awareness of social media, and a re-interrogation of what professionalism means in relation to it, is fast becoming a requirement for all future generations. Learning, Teaching and Social Media critically analyses social media across education, from primary and secondary schools to university, in order to assess how students, educators and policymakers are engaging with it.
This book takes a generational approach to social media unlike any other work and assesses interactions with it, from pupils on Kidblog and teens on Facebook, to educators on TeacherTube. As digital literacies must now cope with the inevitability of social media, the book asks what role education does and should play. Bringing together current literature from education, learning and media technologies, McWhirter also draws on audience and communication studies, psychology and arts and humanities at a time when many different disciplines are trying to understand what social media means to our society. Perhaps most importantly, the book will empirically test some of the current educational thinking on social media in the field, by presenting and analysing interviews undertaken with academics, teachers and educators.
By considering what various stakeholders are doing with social media, Learning, Teaching and Social Media will contribute to recommendations for policy that shape a future with digital literacies high on the agenda. As such, it will be of great interest to academics, researchers and postgraduates working in the field of education and technology, alongside critical digital media scholars who occupy a range of disciplines across the humanities.

Описание: On the basis of detailed analyses of his son`s and grandson`s development, Neil Smith explains the everyday miracle of one aspect of first-language acquisition. Mispronunciations are now attributed to performance rather than to competence, and he argues at length that their productions are not mentally represented.
The last two decades have been transformational, often discordant ones for German feminism, as a new cohort of activists has come of age and challenged many of the movement's strategic and philosophical orthodoxies. Mad M dchen offers an incisive analysis of these trans-generational debates, identifying the mother-daughter themes and other tropes that have defined their representation in German literature, film, and media. Author Margaret McCarthy investigates female subjectivity as it processes political discourse to define itself through both differences and affinities among women. Ultimately, such a model suggests new ways of re-imagining feminist solidarity across generational, ethnic, and racial lines.
Описание: The role of generations is an important, yet often overlooked, variable in the study of American politics. A topic of research in sociology, business, and marketing, the focus on generations frequently occurs in American pop culture and journalism. The general public often assumes that different generations have different political leanings and beliefs—that the Silent Generation is all Republican, white, and conservative, or that Millennials are liberal and diverse—but are these assumptions true?
Generational Politics in the United States is the first comprehensive book that examines the concept of generations from a political science perspective. It defines what a generation is and how to sort out the differences between life cycle, cohort, and aging effect. The book then brings together chapters from an array of political science scholars that examine the role of generations in American politics and how it relates to other variables such as age, race, gender, and socioeconomic status. It discusses how politics in the United States are impacted by changes in generations, including how the passing of the Baby Boom generation and rise of the Millennials and Gen Z will change American politics. By examining the differences in political attitudes, engagement, and impact of recent generations, Generational Politics in the United States suggests how generational change will impact American politics in the future.
This is a self-help book about using essential oils to shift the subconscious generational programming that is at the root of many illnesses. Essential oils help reprogram incorrect perceptions that have been passed on through generations. The emotions that trigger symptoms of disharmony in the mental, emotional, and physical body seldom, if ever, originate with us; rather, they have a familial origin.
Essential oils have aromatic properties that can assist the body in releasing the emotions of old traumas. The olfactory system is anatomically connected to the limbic system of the brain, contributing to the function of long-term memory, emotions, the autonomic nervous system, hormones, blood pressure, heart rate, and attention. Emotions are triggered by smell or aroma.
This manual is designed to allow you to quickly find the essential oil that will deal with the emotion(s) at the root of the symptoms being expressed. You will learn of the author's journey in self-help healing and about the benefits of essential oils in dealing with stress. You will also find the following useful information:
Single oils and blend oils in alphabetic order with their healing affirmations
A list of the top four emotions addressed with each oil
Complementary oils and oils that will blend with them
Classification of essential oils for making personal blends.
You will learn two ways to use essential oils to relieve symptoms that may have a generational origin: how to use the oils to reprogram generational emotions that are at the root of the symptoms being expressed, and how to make a personal blend that will support the reprogramming. The information in this book isn't to replace any medical treatments, but to assist the body in letting go of stress that underlies many illnesses and stressors today.

Описание: In this masterful work of family-focused sociology, Lois Benjamin considers the lives of Pennie and Roscoe James and their children, revealing how a large, close-knit African American family with humble origins in a small town of North Carolina is shaped by the contours of its religious and ethical value system. Despite the challenges of daily experiences, the James elders transmitted values to their children that provided them with the resources to thrive and the resilience to meet adversity. The James children recount their personal, unique perspectives on how faith, familial solidarity, and savvy entrepreneurship led to their continued generational success. Benjamin uses a blend of ethnographic and qualitative methods to place the James's experiences in broader historical context. In doing so, she shows that the family's values of compassion, empathy, and communitarian and enterprising spirit offer hope in this polarized society.
