Sinopse

Artifacts and Ethics explores the complex moral issues surrounding cultural artifacts, focusing on ownership, repatriation, and ethical acquisition. The book argues for ethical considerations to be central in decisions about artifacts. It balances cultural heritage preservation with the rights of source communities, challenging Western-centric views. For instance, it examines how colonial history has shaped current museum collections, creating power imbalances that led to the removal of artifacts from their original locations. It also highlights the importance of understanding cultural property rights in a global context where social justice and human rights are paramount.

 
The book begins by giving a historical context, then introduces ethical frameworks like deontology and utilitarianism to analyze the roles of museums, source communities, collectors, and governments. It looks at the history of collecting and its impact, the legal landscape, and the ethical dilemmas museums face. It uses historical documents, legal cases, and ethnographic studies to provide a comprehensive view.

 
The book aims to create a dialogue between museums and source communities and offers guidance for ethical policies and advocacy. It's a valuable resource for anyone interested in the ethical dimensions of cultural heritage, from students to policymakers.

Healing Trauma With Emdr

Jim Colajuta

We all have a natural emotional healing process, just as we do a natural physical healing process within us. When we get a wound, our bodies' natural healing process takes care of it. When emotionally painful events occur in our lives, we usually manage to overcome them and move on with our lives. On the other hand, a cut does not always heal until it has been cleaned and an antibiotic has been applied. Similarly, when something emotionally upsetting occurs, the brain's processing system isn't always able to absorb it and put it into the context of our entire lives without assistance. Sometimes we are completely unaware of what is going on.Although the image of the incident may not come to us consciously, we may feel unworthy, sad, afraid, or nauseous. We may be unaware that we are being swamped with dysfunctionally stored material from the past. We may act in ways we later regret and not wholly comprehend why. The EMDR method recognizes that you aren't reacting on purpose; the triggered memories are at the root of your actions that aren't consistent with who you are now. EMDR can assist the brain's processing system repair emotional wounds in the same way that an antibiotic ointment can help cure a cut. It's still your own internal process conducting the healing; EMDR simply "jump starts" it when it's needed and speeds it up.Once the isolated "land mine" of trauma has been reprocessed using EMDR, it is neutralized, meaning it will no longer go off and flood into the present. It's woven into the fabric of your existence, so it appears to be over and cannot derail you from your current state of bliss.The information appears to be stimulated, and the brain can reprocess the situation due to eye movements or other bilateral stimulation. Eye movements are only a tiny part of EMDR. In processing traumatic memories, current concerns, or future fears, integrates imagery, beliefs, emotions, and physical sensations.

The Creative Self - Beyond...

Mari Ruti, Gail M. Newman

"Be the best you can be!" Practically from the moment we are born, we are taught to optimize our lives—to devote ourselves to increasing our productivity and efficiency, which, we are told, will make us happier and more successful. The imperative of constant self-improvement, however, drains us dry even as it promises to build us up. 
 
 
 
The Creative Self delves into the hegemony of neoliberal self-optimization and turns to psychoanalysis in search of an alternative. In paired chapters, Mari Ruti and Gail M. Newman examine the works of the psychoanalysts Marion Milner and Donald W. Winnicott. They provide deeply personal accounts of how these thinkers resonate with day-to-day life, exploring modes of selfhood that subtly but profoundly resist the lure and escape the trap of competitive individualism. Milner urges us to relinquish the ego in the face of loss and lack, and Winnicott asks us to accept the paradoxes of the self instead of demanding their resolution. Together, their insights help us flourish where neoliberal self-improvement would stifle us. Combining the intellectual, the personal, and the political from two perspectives that converge and diverge in striking ways, this book offers an antidote to transactional individualism and envisions forms of creative living beyond its confines.
