Book Synopsis Cultural Citizenship in Political Theory by : Judith Vega
Download or read book Cultural Citizenship in Political Theory written by Judith Vega and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-06-11 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cultural citizenship is a recently developed concept in discussions on multicultural society, the media society, consumerism, and political theory. It addresses the various ways in which citizenship is becoming mixed up with culture, either through globalisation processes (involving new cultural identities, immigrations, culture industries) or by increasingly life-style oriented types of action. In the face of these challenges, the good old notion of citizenship seems in need of some assistance. This book takes a fresh look at cultural citizenship by exploring it from political-philosophical angles. It seeks to develop explicitly normative perspectives on the present debates around culture. What do the novel national and global constellations mean with respect to inclusion and exclusion, participation and marginalisation, political rights and ‘mere’ cultural practices? Moreover, this volume’s authors aim to develop notions of cultural citizenship beyond the liberal political paradigm that associates it with ‘cultural rights’, ‘cultural capital’ or the ‘consumer-citizen’. They engage the concept to re-think politics in both its meanings of citizenship practices and governance practices vis-à-vis citizens. The authors address a range of pertinent issues, exploring historical as well as present-day understandings, and theoretical as well as policy applications of the notion of cultural citizenship. This book was originally published as a special issue of Citizenship Studies.

Book Synopsis Culture, Citizenship, and Community by : Joseph H. Carens
Download or read book Culture, Citizenship, and Community written by Joseph H. Carens and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2000-03-09 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contributes to contemporary debates about multiculturalism and democratic theory by reflecting upon the ways in which claims about culture and identity are actually advanced by immigrants, national minorities, aboriginals and other groups in a number of different societies. Carens advocates a contextual approach to theory that explores the implications of theoretical views for actual cases, reflects on the normative principles embedded in practice, and takes account of the ways in which differences between societies matter. He argues that this sort of contextual approach will show why the conventional liberal understanding of justice as neutrality needs to be supplemented by a conception of justice as evenhandedness and why the conventional conception of citizenship is an intellectual and moral prison from which we can be liberated by an understanding of citizenship that is more open to multiplicity and that grows out of practices we judge to be just and beneficial.

Book Synopsis Cultural Citizenship by : Nick Stevenson
Download or read book Cultural Citizenship written by Nick Stevenson and published by McGraw-Hill Education (UK). This book was released on 2003-10-16 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Health services globally are changing, strategically, structurally and clinically. Research and Development (R&D) plays a key role, because only good research can elucidate and challenge the status quo or future possibilities for effective health care. Researchers and managers have a duty to collaborate with clinicians, to understand and make the most of each others' skills. This necessitates a new paradigm of health service research which is part of a change management culture and change promotion. A clear philosophical and practical distinction is required between R&D and fundamental biomedical science. This book has been written for people who make decisions and bring about change, at all sorts of levels, and in a wide range of disciplines. They include clinicians in many specialities, as well as administrative staff, and general managers of healthcare organizations. It is also for people doing, or wanting to do, research and development in this fascinating area.

Book Synopsis Multicultural Citizenship by : Will Kymlicka
Download or read book Multicultural Citizenship written by Will Kymlicka and published by Clarendon Press. This book was released on 1996-09-19 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The increasingly multicultural fabric of modern societies has given rise to many new issues and conflicts, as ethnic and national minorities demand recognition and support for their cultural identity. This book presents a new conception of the rights and status of minority cultures. It argues that certain sorts of `collective rights' for minority cultures are consistent with liberal democratic principles, and that standard liberal objections to recognizing such rights on grounds of individual freedom, social justice, and national unity, can be answered. However, Professor Kymlicka emphasises that no single formula can be applied to all groups and that the needs and aspirations of immigrants are very different from those of indigenous peoples and national minorities. The book discusses issues such as language rights, group representation, religious education, federalism, and secession - issues which are central to understanding multicultural politics, but which have been surprisingly neglected in contemporary liberal theory.

Book Synopsis Cultural Citizenship in India by : Dfg Post-Doctoral Fellow Lion Konig
Download or read book Cultural Citizenship in India written by Dfg Post-Doctoral Fellow Lion Konig and published by . This book was released on 2016-10-25 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If the nation is an imagined community constructed through discourse, then belonging the feeling of being part of that nation - can only arise when citizens are empowered to enter the discourse and modify it. Linking political science and cultural studies to explore the mutually constitutive role of discourse and institutions, this volume argues that citizenship is an ongoing and evolving discursive project. Further, it studies the role of culture and different media in the process of citizen-making by taking postcolonial India as its case study. The volume explores discursive plurality and the monopolization of interpretation as the poles from which inclusion in and exclusion from the national community are negotiated. By interfacing political sciences interest in the power of institutions and cultural studies focus on the power of discourse, the author is able to investigate into the ways in which citizenship manifests itself - and is contested - outside the institutional realm, thus revealing conceptual relativity, ruptures, and creative re-interpretations of citizenship.

Book Synopsis Education and Cultural Citizenship by : Delano Martel
Download or read book Education and Cultural Citizenship written by Delano Martel and published by Socialy Press. This book was released on 2017-06 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cultural citizenship is a concept whose time has come. The notion of cultural citizenship initially developed in the 1980s, in part to bring greater multicultural emphasis to discourses of race in the United States that stressed black and white dichotomies. Following on from political citizenship -- the right to reside and to vote -- and economic citizenship -- the right to thrive and prosper -- it insists on a right to communication and to the representation of cultural difference. Of course, citizenship has always been cultural. Citizenship, after all, is about over political rights and responsibilities. It is also a matter of culture. Cultural citizenship has been part of a broader discussion on cultural pluralism that began in the United States at the beginning of the twentieth century. Since then pluralism has undergone at least three noteworthy transformations, beginning with, during the first quarter of the twentieth century, attempts to preserve primarily European immigrant cultures vis-�-vis the state, followed by the integrationist civil rights movements of the 1960s and 1970s, and lastly, the mainstreaming of "difference" and a multiculturalism that began in the 1980s. Never intended to destabilize the authority of the nation-state or its ideology, these "politics of difference" have helped give voice to American democratic citizenship. Education and Cultural Citizenship compiles the major developments in the social and political theory of education. It provides a global introduction to the major studies within the field and delivers a continual argument for a democratic and normative view of education. This book indeed outlines an idea of the good society that seeks to describe the gradual evolution of an educated and participatory democracy. The long revolution links ideas of education, political participation and the construction of a culture in common.
Book Synopsis Making Citizens by : Zev M. Trachtenberg
Download or read book Making Citizens written by Zev M. Trachtenberg and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-01-11 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By analysing Rousseau's conception of the general will, Zev Trachtenberg characterises the attitude of civic virtue Rousseau believes individuals must have to cooperate successfully in society. Rousseau holds that culture affects political life by either fostering or discouraging civic virtue. However, while the cultural institutions Rousseau endorses would motivate citizens to obey the law, they would not prepare citizens to help frame it. Rousseau's view of culture thus works against his account of legitimacy, and Trachtenberg concludes that Rousseau's political theory as a whole is inconsistent.
