Sinossi

Diaspora Literary Output explores the growth and global reception of diaspora literature, a field examining works by writers who navigate life away from their homelands. This collection of academic essays delves into how these literary works shape our understanding of global cultures and influence literary traditions. Intriguingly, diaspora literature not only reflects migrant experiences but also actively molds cultural identities, challenging dominant narratives. The book further examines the thematic concerns common in diaspora writing, such as identity, displacement, and memory, providing invaluable insights into marginalized communities and cultural exchange.

 
The book approaches its subject by first defining diaspora literature and tracing its historical development, setting the stage for subsequent chapters that delve into key themes like identity construction, the role of memory, and the negotiation of language. It culminates in an analysis of the international reception of diaspora literature, examining how these works are interpreted across diverse cultural contexts.

 
The collection aims to foster intercultural understanding by showcasing the transformative power of literature in addressing issues of belonging and representation, making it a valuable resource for those interested in migration studies and cultural studies.

Battling Over Birth - Black...

Helen Arega, Julia Chinyere...

Battling Over Birth: Black Women and the Maternal Health Care Crisis reveals hard truths—powerful findings on the role of racism, coercion, inadequate prenatal care, the pressures undermining breastfeeding, and the lack of access to alternatives to a broken maternal health-care system as key threads of black women's birth experiences. 
 
 
 
Battling Over Birth, a new human rights report from Black Women Birthing Justice, shares stories from over 100 women who recently gave birth in California. The report reveals the culture of fear and coercion that has transformed birth into a battleground, a deep lack of trust of our hospitals, and a broken maternal healthcare system that fails too many black women. The report shakes up our understanding of where state violence happens, and who it happens to; putting the human rights spotlight onto a system that is often unaccountable to black communities. Battling Over Birth also provides solutions. It makes a series of recommendations, including community accountability boards to hold hospitals accountable; increased access to midwifery and doula-care; recruitment and training of more health-care professionals of color; culturally-competent, empowering prenatal and postpartum care; greater access to home birth and birth centers; and a sharp reduction in the use of C-sections.

“Nasty Women” ― Reclaiming the...

Ph.D Janet Rivkin Zuckerman

This book addresses the fraught relationship between women and aggression, one troubled by age-old patriarchal forces that disparage women's ambition, assertion, and voice. 
Told from a psychoanalytic perspective, the book details the sociocultural forces that infect a woman's intrapsychic dynamics and compel her to sacrifice her goals and dreams. Compelling examples are offered from current politics, the author's own struggles with aggression, and clinical work with female patients who successfully reclaimed their aggression. The book addresses the critical question of how a woman can ever succeed, through the presentation of the author's detailed and psychoanalytically informed interviews with six powerful and highly influential women. Each woman brings to life the story of her history, influences, and challenges to provide inspiration for others to reimagine their own "nastiness," as an innovative, vitalizing tool. 
This book is distinguished by its unique blend of contemporary life, psychoanalytic practice, feminist theory, and gender studies, untold in any other forum or publication. It is essential for psychoanalysts, psychotherapists, and all those interested in working with women in a therapeutic setting and understanding their challenges with aggression.
