Book Synopsis Greening the Academy by : Samuel Fassbinder
Download or read book Greening the Academy written by Samuel Fassbinder and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-30 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the academic Age of the Neoliberal Arts. Campuses—as places characterized by democratic debate and controversy, wide ranges of opinion typical of vibrant public spheres, and service to the larger society—are everywhere being creatively destroyed in order to accord with market and military models befitting the academic-industrial complex. While it has become increasingly clear that facilitating the sustainability movement is the great 21st century educational challenge at hand, this book asserts that it is both a dangerous and criminal development today that sustainability in higher education has come to be defined by the complex-friendly “green campus” initiatives of science, technology, engineering and management programs. By contrast, Greening the Academy: Ecopedagogy Through the Liberal Arts takes the standpoints of those working for environmental and ecological justice in order to critique the unsustainable disciplinary limitations within the humanities and social sciences, as well as provide tactical reconstructive openings toward an empowered liberal arts for sustainability. Greening the Academy thus hopes to speak back with a collective demand that sustainability education be defined as a critical and moral vocation comprised of the diverse types of humanistic study that will benefit the well-being of our emerging planetary community and its numerous common locales.

Book Synopsis Ecocriticism. A New Response to Indian Poetry from Tagore to Present by : Naseer Khan

This book was released on 2014-11-12 with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Document from the year 2014 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Other, grade: Ecopoetry, , language: English, abstract: Eco-poetry is an emerging field of this postmodern world. We find that the poetry was taken as a piece of romantic enjoyment but the recent trends in research have changed its place in the literary canon and the new Eco-poetic genre is being created to make an academic atmosphere for the safeguard of the environment. In 1962 William Carson in his study Silent Spring wrote that the pesticides that American's use has a negative effect on the species as well as on human body. Carson's argument gave world a new eco consciousness and they made efforts to preserve the ecosystem. Human beings were in great slumber and they were not knowing which color there is of and it was with the maiden discovery of Apollo 11 which not only made its maiden landing on the moon but it kept human consciousness in zeal when it took the photographs of the earth and these photographs made us realize that the globe we are living in is green and has a variety of life and rest are lifeless objects. Worldwide conferences are being held to have an environmental consciousness and millions of dollars are being spent in this or that way to bring the planet in its original shape but unfortunately we say a lot and do less. Therefore to give safeguard to this globe it is our prime duty to make ECO FRONTS from all sides including academic one so that globe could sustain its greenery in balance, as we know that this globe is full of colors and the poets have sung about these colorful aspects not to romanticize the things but to give an ecological consciousness. The present study is an eco-poetic dialogue based on Indian poetry from Tagore to present and this study has tried to highlight how poetry could be helpful to save the world and its colorful species from extinction. Thus the eco-poetic study has tried to reveal many truths about Indian ecology as how Indian poets whether here or in Diaspora see the present Indian ecology. India a growing economy on all fronts is going through a huge developmental changes. The Word Ecocriticism though belongs to white race but has similar apprehension for the entire globe and the word was used by William Rueckert in Literature and Ecology: An Experiment in Ecocriticism in 1978 to highlight the ecological problems depicted through literature. Thus present study has tried to highlight some of the ecological problems which India is facing at present and to show all these problems effort has been made to show an eco-historical perspective.

Book Synopsis The Jukebox in the Garden by : David Ingram
Download or read book The Jukebox in the Garden written by David Ingram and published by Brill Rodopi. This book was released on 2010 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the rise of the contemporary ecology movement in the 1960s, American songwriters and composers, from folk singer Pete Seeger to jazz saxophonist Paul Winter, have lamented, and protested against, environmental degradation and injustice. The Jukebox in the Garden is the first book to survey a wide range of musical styles, including folk, country, blues, rock, jazz, electronica and hip hop, to examine the different ways in which popular music has explored American relationships between nature, technology and environmental politics. It also investigates the growing link between music and philosophical thought, particularly under the influence of both deep ecology and New Age thinking, according to which music, amongst all the arts, has a special affinity with ecological ideas. This book is both an exploration and critique of such speculations on the role that music can play in raising environmental awareness. It combines description and analysis of American popular music made during the era of modern environmentalism with a consideration of its wider social, historical and political contexts. It will be of interest to undergraduates and post-graduates in music, cultural studies and environmental studies, as well as general readers interested in popular music and the environment.

Book Synopsis The End of the Cognitive Empire by : Boaventura de Sousa Santos
Download or read book The End of the Cognitive Empire written by Boaventura de Sousa Santos and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2018-07-16 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The End of the Cognitive Empire Boaventura de Sousa Santos further develops his concept of the "epistemologies of the South," in which he outlines a theoretical, methodological, and pedagogical framework for challenging the dominance of Eurocentric thought. As a collection of knowledges born of and anchored in the experiences of marginalized peoples who actively resist capitalism, colonialism, and patriarchy, epistemologies of the South represent those forms of knowledge that are generally discredited, erased, and ignored by dominant cultures of the global North. Noting the declining efficacy of established social and political solutions to combat inequality and discrimination, Santos suggests that global justice can only come about through an epistemological shift that guarantees cognitive justice. Such a shift would create new, alternative strategies for political mobilization and activism and give oppressed social groups the means through which to represent the world as their own and in their own terms.

Book Synopsis Located Research by : Angela Campbell
Download or read book Located Research written by Angela Campbell and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-11-29 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the diversity of practice in regional research and its contribution to local, national and global issues. Three themes are advanced here: Place and change, Transition and resilience, and Challenges for the future. Contributors embrace frameworks of co-design and transdisciplinary practice to build communities of practice in response to lived experience in regional contexts. Their work highlights the strategic importance of a regional focus at a time when global connectivity and mobility is increasing and the complexity of ‘wicked’ problems demands more than one approach or solution. Such complex problems require nuanced, and at times ‘bespoke’ methodological approaches to better understand and support not just regional adaptation, resilience and transformation, but to manage all these things at a time when change is everywhere.
Download or read book Ratner's Star written by Don DeLillo and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2012-04-11 with total page 449 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A whimsical, surrealistic excursion into the modern scientific mind." --The New Yorker One of DeLillo's first novels, Ratner's Star follows Billy, the genius adolescent, who is recruited to live in obscurity, underground, as he tries to help a panel of estranged, demented, and yet lovable scientists communicate with beings from outer space. It is a mix of quirky humor, science, mathematical theories, as well as the complex emotional distance and sadness people feel. Ratner's Star demonstrates both the thematic and prosaic muscularity that typifies DeLillo's later and more recent works, like The Names (which is also available in Vintage Contemporaries). "His most spectacularly inventive novel." --The New York Times
