  Have you ever had the experience of being manipulated by a person to such an extent that you felt something was wrong with your perception? That you finally started to doubt your perceptive faculty, even your mental health? That you began to lose confidence in your senses because you were regularly told that you were perceiving reality incorrectly? You are not alone in this: this common phenomenon is called gaslighting, and it is a subtle yet serious form of psychological violence that can have lasting effects on the victim's self-esteem.
  
  "I never said that. You're just imagining it."
  "It never happened that way."
  "You're overreacting."
  "You're crazy. You should get help."
  
  In this guidebook, you'll learn not only what exactly gaslighting actually is and how this mechanism works, but also how you can free yourself - and others - from the manipulation trap and ultimately emerge stronger from this crisis.

  The Forthcoming End of the Kali...

  HENRY ROMANO

  Hinduism has a complex system of world ages and cycles of creation and destruction as its chief characteristics. The remarkable theory of the yugas has always played a prominent role within this elaborate system. The article explains why society is and what people should do if they want to live according to religious principles. 
  India’s yuga system was formed during a crucial period in its history, roughly from the 5th century B.C.E. to the 5th century C.E. The dominant Brahmana Vedic tradition had to adapt and transform to survive. It was a period of profound change in all spheres: social, political, economic, religious, and philosophical. 
  Several challenges that confronted the authoritative religious traditions of the Time also led to revolutionary ideas that would become syncretic new religious traditions. During this period, Buddhism and Jainism emerged, and the reworked Brahmana religion we all know today as Hinduism. It was not precisely the need to confront these profound shifts in Indian religious traditions and social conditions that provided the fertile ground for a theory of world ages.

  Who Gets to Write Fiction? -...

  Writing and sharing fiction allows adolescents to glimpse other lives 
   
   
   
  The current curricular emphasis on analytical writing can make it feel risky to teach creative writing in ELA classrooms. But the opportunity to write fiction in school opens many doors for young people: doors the author argues are critical to the development of our students, our education system, and even our democracy. 
   
   
   
  This book will delight English teachers weary of focusing relentlessly on argument and information writing. Veteran teacher Ariel Sacks vividly describes the many academic, social–emotional, and community-building advantages of teaching imaginative writing in the classroom, not least of which is the impact it has on equity for marginalized students. Her book is a teacher-to-teacher text that folds in detailed, practical guidance about how to design lessons and meet standards, while presenting a powerful central argument: that the writing of fiction should be treated not as a luxury for some, but as a center of the English curriculum for all students.

  Political Choice in a Polarized...

  Joshua N. Zingher

  What motivates citizens to support one party over the other? Do they carefully weigh all of the relevant issues and assess which party or candidate best matches their own positions? Or do people look at politics as something more akin to a team sport—the specifics do not matter as long as you know what side your team is on? Answering these questions requires us to think about how much the average American knows about politics. Many scholars of public opinion believe that the majority of Americans only pay passing attention to politics. Thus the electorate's apparent lack of political competence presents a direct challenge to normative theories of democracy. How are citizens supposed to exert control over the government if they have no idea what is going on? 
   
   
   
  In Political Choice in a Polarized America, Joshua N. Zingher argues that these fears are overblown. Not only do individuals have core beliefs about what the government should or should not do, but individuals have become more likely to support the party that best matches their policy attitudes by both identifying as a member of that party and voting for that party in elections. However, as Zingher demonstrates, voters' ability to match their attitudes to a party or candidate varies according to signals sent by elites and increases as parties become more polarized.
