Sinopse

Coast Schools Merge delves into the integration of traditional indigenous knowledge with modern education in Maori coastal communities. It highlights the critical need for educational models that honor indigenous perspectives, promoting both equity and cultural identity. The book reveals how weaving, carving, and traditional storytelling are incorporated into the curriculum, alongside experiential learning and mentorship from elders. This approach challenges Eurocentric educational norms by valuing Te Ao Maori worldview and tikanga customs. The book argues for a genuine partnership between schools and tribal communities, embedding Maori language, culture, and values within the curriculum. It begins by outlining the historical context of Maori education, including the impact of colonization, and then examines case studies of coastal schools. The later sections evaluate academic performance, cultural identity development, and overall student well-being. This academic history provides insights into culturally responsive teaching and curriculum development, offering valuable lessons for scaling up such models in other indigenous communities.

Spirits Seers & Séances -...

Steele Alexandra Douris

Spiritualism in the Age of Sherlock Holmes and Edgar Allan Poe 
 
 
 
A woman wearing a black veil convenes a séance. A magician puts a volunteer into a trance. A fortune-teller leans over a crystal ball. Everyone knows what Victorian mysticism looks like because our modern imagery, language, and practice of magic borrows heavily from the Victorians. But we have little understanding of its spiritual, cultural, and historical foundations. 
 
 
 
What made the Victorians turn to mediumship, hypnotism, and fortune-telling? What were they afraid of? What were they seeking? 
 
 
 
This book explores the history of automatic writing, cartomancy, clairvoyance, and more. It reveals how Victorian belief in ghosts, fairies, and nature spirits shaped our celebrations of Halloween and Christmas. With historic examples and hands-on exercises, you will discover how spiritualism in the time of Jack the Ripper, Jane Eyre, "A Christmas Carol," and Dracula left such a profound impact on both the past and present.

Of The Social Contract -...

Jean Jacques Rousseau

"Man was born free, and he is everywhere in chains" 
These are the famous opening words of a treatise that has not ceased to stir vigorous debate since its first publication in 1762. Rejecting the view that anyone has a natural right to wield authority over others, Rousseau argues instead for a pact, or 'social contract', that should exist between all the citizens of a state and that should be the source of sovereign power. From this fundamental premise, he goes on to consider issues of liberty and law, freedom and justice, arriving at a view of society that has seemed to some a blueprint for totalitarianism, to others a declaration of democratic principles.It's publication in 1762 lead to great discussion about 'what is government' on both sides of the Atlantic, and is still essential reading today. 
How much government is too much? What rights should be given up for government? It is the Social Contract which is the foundational discussion on these topics.

Safe Haven - The United...

Robert Sherwood, Jon Silverman

The controversial 1991 War Crimes Act gave new powers to courts to try non-British citizens resident in the UK for war crimes committed during WWII. But in spite of the extensive investigative and legal work that followed, and the expense of some £11 million, it led to just one conviction: that in 1999 of Anthony (Andrzej) Sawoniuk. 
 
 
 
Safe Haven considers for the first time why and how convictions failed to follow investigations. Within the broader context of war crimes investigations in the United States, Germany, and Australia, the authors reassess the legal and investigative processes and decisions that stymied inquiries, from the War Crimes Act itself to the restrictive criteria applied to it. Taken together, the authors argue that these—including the interpretations of who could and should be prosecuted and decisions about the nature and amount of evidence needed for trial—meant that many Nazi collaborators escaped justice and never appeared in a criminal court. 
 
 
 
The authors situate this history within the legacy of the Holocaust: how, if at all, do the belated attempts to address a failure of justice sit with an ever-growing awareness of the Holocaust, represented by memorialization and education? In so doing, Safe Haven provokes a timely reconsideration of the relationship between law, history, and truth.

Born This Way - Science...

Joanna Wuest

The story of how a biologically driven understanding of gender and sexuality became central to US LGBTQ+ political and legal advocacy. 
 
Across protests and courtrooms, LGBTQ+ advocates argue that sexual and gender identities are innate. Oppositely, conservatives incite panic over “groomers” and a contagious “gender ideology” that corrupts susceptible children. Yet, as this debate rages on, the history of what first compelled the hunt for homosexuality’s biological origin story may hold answers for the queer rights movement’s future. 
Born This Way tells the story of how a biologically based understanding of gender and sexuality became central to LGBTQ+ advocacy. Starting in the 1950s, activists sought out mental health experts to combat the pathologizing of homosexuality. As Joanna Wuest shows, these relationships were forged in subsequent decades alongside two broader, concurrent developments: the rise of an interest-group model of rights advocacy and an explosion of biogenetic and bio-based psychological research. The result is essential reading to fully understand LGBTQ+ activism today and how clashes over science remain crucial to equal rights struggles.
