Sinopsis

In the tapestry of China's rapidly changing society, the migration of its people from rural villages to urban centers stands as a defining trend of our time. This mass movement of humanity has left an indelible mark on the country's landscape, transforming both the bustling metropolises and the tranquil villages they left behind.

This book delves into the heart of this migration phenomenon, exploring its profound impact on China's rural villages. Through the eyes of migrants, we witness the allure of the city's opportunities and the challenges they face in their pursuit of a better life. We also see the impact of migration on the villages they left behind, as families grapple with separation, communities adapt to changing demographics, and traditions evolve to meet the demands of a new era.

We examine the role of women in migration, shedding light on the unique challenges and contributions of female migrants. We also explore the experiences of children left behind in rural villages, highlighting the resilience and adaptability of these young lives. Furthermore, we delve into the complex process of reintegration for those who return home, navigating the challenges of readjusting to rural life after years spent in the city.

Drawing on in-depth fieldwork conducted in Chinese villages, this book provides a nuanced understanding of the challenges and opportunities that migration presents. It offers valuable insights into the lives of migrants, their families, and their communities, both in the city and in the countryside.

This book is essential reading for anyone interested in China's social and economic transformation, migration studies, or the impact of globalization on rural communities. It is a timely and important contribution to our understanding of one of the defining trends of our time.

    This edition brings Dewey’s educational theory into sharp focus, framing his two classic works by frank assessments, past and present, of the practical applications of Dewey’s ideas. In addition to a substantial introduction in which Philip W. Jackson explains why more of Dewey’s ideas haven’t been put into practice, this edition restores a “lost” chapter, dropped from the book by Dewey in 1915.

    Are you still suffering from the aftereffects of an abusive relationship? 
      
    Although complicated and frequently perplexing, the answer to the above questions may be summed up in two words: emotional blackmail. 
      
    Emotional blackmail is a sneaky, aggressive tactic in which someone close to us threatens to penalize us, directly or indirectly, if we fail to achieve their expectations. It is a potent manipulation that takes advantage of those with whom you have intimate ties. 
      
    We usually imagine the blackmailer to be selfish, deceitful, and cruel; yet, this viewpoint is a poor explanation for this emotional event since the truth is very different. 
      
    Blackmailers are devious charmers and expert manipulators, so you begin to accept the most extreme behaviour as usual, even if it hurts you. 
      
    THIS MANUAL WILL TEACH YOU THE FOLLOWING: 
     How to recognize the subtle indicators of emotional blackmail and avoid falling into the trap in the future.How to recognize toxic personalities and prevent them.The numerous sorts of blackmail and strategies that blackmailers use to drive you insane regularly.How to Break the Blackmail Chains and Protect Yourself from Their AttacksAttachment and co-dependency patterns can help you understand where all this madness started.How to recover and break free from this destructive cycle once and for all.

    Read by the author. 
    "A heartfelt invitation for grieving readers...An excellent resource for those working their way through loss." —Publishers Weekly, Starred Review  
    Veteran hospital chaplain to the sick, dying, and bereaved, J.S. Park offers you both the permission and the process for how to grieve and heal at your own pace. 
    In As Long As You Need, J.S. offers an honest and unrushed engagement with grief, decoding four types of grieving—spiritual, mental, physical, and relational—and offering compassionate self-care and soul-care along the way. 
    If you are struggling to process loss, pain, or grief from the last few years or the last few minutes, J.S. is an experienced and deeply empathetic listener and grief catcher who has held the pain and questions of thousands of patients. While social and cultural narratives about grief are dominated by "letting go, moving on, or turning the page" in his nearly decade of service as a chaplain at a major hospital with a designated level one trauma center J.S. understands firsthand how rushing or suppressing grief only adds a suffocating layer of pain on top of the original wound. 
    From his unique window into the stories of the ill, injured, dying, and their families, J.S. offers you:Permission to dismantle all too common myths about grief and replace them with a guilt-free and unrushed approach to navigating your losses.Encouragement for how entering grief, rather than avoiding it, leads to a hard but meaningful holding of your loss.Empathy and hope if you are struggling with a crisis of faith in the midst of grief.Recognition that grief spans a wide narrative of loss: loss of future, faith, mental health, worth, autonomy, connection, and loved ones.Affirmation that your grief is your own. While the DNA of grief might be universal to the human condition, how you experience and process grief is unique to you. 
      
    From the ER to deliveries to deathbeds across every sort of illness and injury imaginable, J.S. Park has provided meaningful counseling for people in all walks of life and death. Now, through his book he wants to assure you that, while everybody else might rush past your pain, grief is the voice that says, take as long as you need.

    Black Country Music tells the story of how Black musicians have changed the country music landscape and brought light to Black creativity and innovation. 
    After a century of racist whitewashing, country music is finally reckoning with its relationship to Black people. In this timely work—the first book on Black country music by a Black writer—Francesca Royster uncovers the Black performers and fans, including herself, who are exploring the pleasures and possibilities of the genre. 
     
    Informed by queer theory and Black feminist scholarship, Royster’s book elucidates the roots of the current moment found in records like Tina Turner’s first solo album, Tina Turns the Country On! She reckons with Black “bros” Charley Pride and Darius Rucker, then chases ghosts into the future with Valerie June. Indeed, it is the imagination of Royster and her artists that make this music so exciting for a genre that has long been obsessed with the past. The futures conjured by June and others can be melancholy, and are not free of racism, but by centering Black folk Royster begins to understand what her daughter hears in the banjo music of Our Native Daughters and the trap beat of Lil Nas X’s “Old Town Road.” A Black person claiming country music may still feel a bit like a queer person coming out, but, collectively, Black artists and fans are changing what country music looks and sounds like—and who gets to love it.
