Beschreibung

Victory Celebrations explores the profound role of societal celebrations, from sports championships to the end of wars, as powerful social rituals. These collective displays of joy are not mere outbursts but reflections of deeply ingrained cultural values and shapers of collective identity. Examining these celebrations offers insight into how societies reinforce social bonds and transmit cultural narratives. For instance, victory celebrations can solidify a new social order after political revolutions. The book delves into the historical evolution of these practices, revealing how religion, politics, and social structures have shaped celebratory rituals over time. It offers a structured approach, starting with the psychological and sociological underpinnings of victory celebrations. It progresses from examining sports, where celebrations reflect national identity, to exploring the complex emotions surrounding the end of conflicts and the ideals promoted by freedom movements. By analyzing a diverse range of historical accounts, sociological studies, and media analysis, Victory Celebrations challenges the conventional view of celebrations as superficial occurrences. It positions them as essential tools through which societies define themselves, highlighting their impact on political outcomes and their potential for both inclusion and exclusion. This interdisciplinary approach makes it uniquely valuable for understanding the hidden meanings and social functions of victory celebrations.

    Welcome to the world of artificial intelligence, where digitalization has transformed the globe worldwide. This book investigates the 'system capabilities' and its utilization through the lens of leadership as per its idiosyncrasy.

    The Missing Anthology: Stories...

    Sex workers in Singapore — and most places around the world — tend to be dehumanised, glamourised or sensationalised by the public and media alike. Rarely do mainstream narratives centre sex workers’ voices and agency. The Missing Anthology presents fifteen bold new voices from sex workers, whose writings resist society’s simplistic assumptions about sex work. In these works, authors recount their lived experiences, share their struggles and triumphs, and imagine different futures for the sex industry. 
     
    Born from an open call and writing workshops organised by Project X — the only non-profit organisation in Singapore that provides social, emotional, and health services to people in the sex industry — these pieces daringly experiment with form, genre, and perspective. In these pages, you’ll find two “chickens” discussing their dreams while blowing up a condom; pieces on the dynamics of domme-ing and servicing second-hand hearts; essays on the importance of activism and its obstacles; short fiction exploring fantasies of violent liberation; tender letters to loved ones and younger selves that reflect on their journeys and how far they’ve come. 
     
    The Missing Anthology re-centres sex workers’ voices from the margins, bringing them into the conversation about an industry often treated as illicit and taboo. By doing so, it aims to address issues of inequality, social and economic mobility, stigmatization, and safety that are fuelled by misconceptions about sex workers and their profession.
