Book Synopsis Education and Extremisms by : Farid Panjwani
Download or read book Education and Extremisms written by Farid Panjwani and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-08-09 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Education and Extremisms addresses one of the most pressing questions facing societies today: how is education to respond to the challenge of extremism? It argues that the implementation of new teaching techniques, curricular reforms or top-down changes to education policy alone cannot solve the problem of extremism in educational establishments across the world. Instead, the authors of this thought-provoking volume argue that there is a need for those concerned with radicalisation to reconsider the relationship between instrumentalist ideologies shaping education and the multiple forms of extremisms that exist. Beginning with a detailed discussion of the complicated and contested nature of different forms of extremism, including extremism of both a religious and secular nature, the authors show that common assumptions in contemporary discourses on education and extremism are problematic. Chapters in the book provide a careful selection of pertinent and topical case studies, policy analysis and insightful critique of extremist discourses. Taken together, the chapters in the book make a powerful case for re-engaging with liberal education in order to foster values of individual and social enrichment, intellectual freedom, criticality, open-mindedness, flexibility and reflection as antidotes to extremist ideologies. Recognising recent criticisms of liberalism and liberal education, the authors argue for a new understanding of liberal education that is suitable for multicultural societies in a rapidly globalising world. This book is essential reading for academics, researchers and postgraduate students with an interest in religion, citizenship education, liberalism, secularism, counter-terrorism, social policy, Muslim education, youth studies and extremism. It is also relevant to teacher educators, teachers and policymakers.

Book Synopsis Comparative Education, Terrorism and Human Security by : W. Nelles
Download or read book Comparative Education, Terrorism and Human Security written by W. Nelles and published by Springer. This book was released on 2003-12-18 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Policy decisions in education have changed drastically as a result of the recent threats to our international and national security. In this timely and compelling collection, authors discuss the significance of policy decisions on education systems, and argue that all forms of violence, including terrorism, are often reproduced through education. Authors incorporate case studies from a broad spectrum of countries to make a case for peace-building alternatives and non-military security cooperation. Comparative Education, Terrorism and Human Security will highlight education systems around the globe that sustain violence, will bring together human security and preventive diplomacy research to predict future trends, will explore foreign policy implications that could lead to non-violent interventions abroad, and will provide teachers and policymakers with relevant reflections on reform. This book arrives at a time when many of us are wondering what education systems can do to eliminate/perpetuate violence and will be the only one of its kind to address these questions on a global scale.
Book Synopsis Policing Schools: School Violence and the Juridification of Youth by : Johannes Lunneblad
Download or read book Policing Schools: School Violence and the Juridification of Youth written by Johannes Lunneblad and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-09-03 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the global phenomenon of school violence and its wide range of behaviours, from school shootings to minor theft, bullying and sexual harassment. Studying the Nordic countries and taking Sweden as an example and case study, the book discusses key features of sexuality, bullying and cyberbullying, radicalization, and violent extremism. It examines different approaches to school violence and discusses them in relation to political and ideological influences, gender relations, and socio-economic conditions. It presents trends in prevention of school violence, policing the school and dilemmas in educating against violent extremism. Since most of the research in this field has been done in post-industrial democracies such as Australia, the UK and the US, the book contributes to the debate by offering new perspectives on violence in schools from the Nordic countries.
Book Synopsis Education, Globalization and the State in the Age of Terrorism by : Michael A. Peters
Download or read book Education, Globalization and the State in the Age of Terrorism written by Michael A. Peters and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-12-03 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Education plays an important role in challenging, combating and in understanding terrorism in its different forms, whether as counter-terrorism or as a form of human rights education. Just as education has played a significant role in the process of nation-building, so education also plays a strong role in the process of empire, globalization and resistance to global forces-and in terrorism, especially where it is linked to emergent statehood. This book focuses on the theme of education in an age of terrorism, exploring the conflicts of globalization and global citizenship, feminism post-9/11, youth identities, citizenship and democracy in a culture of permanent war, and the relation between education and war, with a focus on the war against Iraq.
Book Synopsis Combating Terrorism in the 21st Century by : Joseph R. Rudolph Jr.
Download or read book Combating Terrorism in the 21st Century written by Joseph R. Rudolph Jr. and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2022-09-27 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This combination A–Z encyclopedia and primary document collection provides an authoritative and enlightening overview of U.S. anti- and counterterrorism politics, policies, attitudes, and actions related to both foreign and domestic threats, with a special emphasis on post-9/11 events. This book provides a compelling overview of U.S. laws, policies, programs, and actions in the realms of anti- and counterterrorism, as well as comprehensive coverage of the various domestic and foreign terrorist organizations threatening America, including their leaders, ideologies, and practices. These entries are supplemented with a carefully selected collection of primary sources that track the evolution of U.S. anti- and counterterrorism policies and political debate. These documents will not only illuminate major events and turning points in America's fight against terror—both foreign and homegrown—but also help readers understand debates about the effectiveness, morality, and constitutionality of controversial policies that have either been implemented or proposed, from waterboarding to targeted assassination to indefinite incarceration at Guantánamo Bay. In addition, this resource shows how political controversies over anti- and counterterrorism strategies are spilling over into other areas of American life, from debates about privacy rights, government surveillance, and anti-Muslim actions and beliefs to arguments about whether U.S. firearms policies are a boon to terrorists.
Book Synopsis The Prevent Duty in Education by : Joel Busher
Download or read book The Prevent Duty in Education written by Joel Busher and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-07-24 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book explores the enactment, impact and implications of the Prevent Duty across a range of educational contexts. In July 2015 the UK became the first country to place a specific legal requirement on those working in education to contribute to efforts to ‘prevent people from being drawn into terrorism’. Drawing on extensive research with staff, children and young people, the editors and contributors provide new insight into how this high-profile – and highly contentious – policy has shaped educational practice in Britain today. It will be a valuable resource for researchers, policymakers and others interested in the design, implementation and on-the-ground effects of Prevent or similar programmes internationally that place education at the heart of efforts to prevent or counter violent extremism.
Book Synopsis Special Issue: Violent Youth Radicalisation: Perspectives and Solutions by :
Download or read book Special Issue: Violent Youth Radicalisation: Perspectives and Solutions written by and published by RJ4All Publications . This book was released on 2020-12-21 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This timely special issue looks at a current pressing societal challenge that is truly global in its existence but very local in the way it plays out in various geographical, social and political contexts. Terrorism and extremism are undoubtedly among the biggest problems the world is facing today and is leaving in its wake a trail of death and destruction where the human and social costs are perhaps more significant than wars fought between countries on the world stage. These realities breed suspicion, hatred and feelings of revenge and invariably result in a spiral of violence that seemingly has no end. Not only is there a need to explore the various factors leading to violent youth radicalisation, it is clear that young people need to be considered not as victims ‘at risk’ but rather as responsible agents of positive change. This issue focuses on violent youth radicalisation in the context of Professor Gavrielides’ ‘The Youth Empowerment and Innovation Project (YEIP)’ which looked at the problem of violent youth radicalisation across seven European Countries. The project sought to propose a uniquely different way of combatting violent youth radicalisation by proposing an alternative to punitive means so often favoured by governments. That alternative proposed was to use Positive psychology and the Good Lives model to intervene with young people at risk of violent radicalisation focusing on positive identity and well-being on the premise that young people who had a positive view of themselves would be less likely to be drawn into violent radicalisation.
Book Synopsis America's Addiction to Terrorism by : Henry A. Giroux
Download or read book America's Addiction to Terrorism written by Henry A. Giroux and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2016 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the United States today, the term "terrorism" conjures up images of dangerous, outside threats: religious extremists and suicide bombers in particular. Harder to see but all the more pervasive is the terrorism perpetuated by the United States itself, whether through military force overseas or woven into the very fabric of society at home. Henry Giroux, in this passionate and incisive book, turns the conventional wisdom on terrorism upside down, demonstrating how fear and lawlessness have become organizing principles of life in the United States, and violence an acceptable form of social mediation. He addresses the most pressing issues of the moment, from officially sanctioned torture to militarized police forces to austerity politics. Giroux also examines the ongoing degradation of the education system and how young people in particular suffer its more nefarious outcomes. Against this grim picture, Giroux posits a politics of hope and a commitment to accurate-and radical-historical memory. He draws on a long, distinguished career developing the tenets of critical pedagogy to propose a cure for our addiction to terrorism: a kind of "public pedagogy" that challenges the poisoned narratives of "America's dis-imagination machine."
Book Synopsis Preventing and Countering Violent Extremism by : Michael J. Williams
Download or read book Preventing and Countering Violent Extremism written by Michael J. Williams and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-10-29 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This textbook serves as a guide to design and evaluate evidence-based programs intended to prevent or counter violent extremism (P/CVE). Violent extremism and related hate crimes are problems which confront societies in virtually every region of the world; this text examines how we can prevent or counter violent extremism using a systematic, evidence-based approach. The book, equal parts theoretical, methodological and applied, represents the first science-based guide for understanding “what makes hate,” and how to design and evaluate programs intended to prevent this. Though designed to serve as a primary course textbook, the work can readily serve as a how-to guide for self-study, given its abundant links to freely available online toolkits and templates. As such, it is designed to inform both students and practitioners alike with respect to the management, design, or evaluation of programs intended to prevent or counter violent extremism. Written by a leading social scientist in the field of P/CVE program evaluation, this book is rich in both scientific rigor and examples from the “real world” of research and evaluation dedicated to P/CVE. This book will be essential reading for students of terrorism, preventing or countering violent extremism, political violence, and deradicalization, and highly recommended for students of criminal justice, criminology, and behavioural psychology.

Book Synopsis Education, Extremism and Terrorism by : Dianne Gereluk
Download or read book Education, Extremism and Terrorism written by Dianne Gereluk and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The terrorist attacks in the USA and UK on 9/11 and 7/7, and subsequent media coverage, have resulted in a heightened awareness of extremists and terrorists. Should educators be exploring terrorism and extremism within their classrooms? If so, what should they be teaching, and how? Dianne Gereluk draws together the diverging opinions surrounding these debates, exploring and critiquing the justifications used for why these issues should be addressed in schools. She goes on to consider the ways in which educators should teach these topics, providing practical suggestions. Education, Extremism and Terrorism is essential reading for undergraduate and postgraduate education students looking to engage with the philosophical, sociological and political issues that are central to this debate.
Book Synopsis The Challenge of Radicalization and Extremism by :
Download or read book The Challenge of Radicalization and Extremism written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2022-10-04 with total page 379 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This interdisciplinary volume on The Challenge of Radicalization and Extremism: Integrating Research on Education and Citizenship in the Context of Migration addresses the need for educational researchers to place their work in a broader social and political context by connecting it to the current and highly relevant issue of extremism and radicalization. It is just as important for researchers of extremism and radicalization to strengthen their conceptual links with educational fields, especially with education for democratic citizenship, as for researchers in education to get more familiar with issues of migration. This book meets a current shortage of research that addresses these issues across subjects and disciplines to inform both scientific and professional stakeholders in the educational and social sectors. The volume is divided into three parts. The first part, Foundations, provides fundamental research on radicalization and the rejection of democratic values. In the second part, Analysis of Preconditions within the Educational Context, key risk and protective factors against radicalization for young people are explored. Finally, the third part, Approaches for Prevention and Intervention, offers concrete suggestions for prevention and intervention methods within formal and informal educational contexts. The contributions show how new avenues for prevention can be explored through integrating citizenship education’s twofold function to assimilate and to empower.
Book Synopsis Homo, Fix or Nix by : Abdulmouti Souwed
Download or read book Homo, Fix or Nix written by Abdulmouti Souwed and published by Europa Edizioni. This book was released on 2023-11-22 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This interesting essay, developed with a philosophical approach, has the advantage of crossing and taking inspiration from various disciplines for the understanding of some very topical contemporary phenomena. Analyzing some authors of classical Western philosophy and comparing them with other thinkers from other geographical areas (among them some intellectuals of Islamic current), the author confronts the reader with a great reflection on how we see the world today, often influenced by the powerful communication weapon represented by the WEB. Through the use of simple examples, it will be almost natural to understand that phenomena such as extremism (described as a blatant phenomenon against the difficulties of life and the problems of societies), common sense, justice, populism are innate in man’s ability to relate to each other, emerging in a sort of sense a common destiny of human beings. Souwed Abdulmouti was born in 1943 in a traditional, modest environment in thinking and behavior region and hometown, Homs (Syria). His father died early because of diabetic issue. Primary school was mostly a failure, the neighborhood where he lived in his childhood had two mosques, and during the summer he used to enter them to drink cold water from naturally cooled clay pots. Some books of philosophy opened up his life path of thought while he was in junior high school. At the end of middle school, he moved to Damascus, until the end of his university level, then he set out to France where he obtained a Doctorate in Islamic Philosophy Studies, (Dialectic – Al Tawhid), at Sorbonne University, Maitrise in Comparative Philosophy, at Nancy University France 1972, has Bachelor of Arts (Social studies/Philosophy) in Damascus University. Working outside Syria from 1981 until retirement age. His career can be divided into two steps: – in charge of making textbooks for secondary school on philosophic matter – as a University professor of humanities. These two mentioned points developed his strong idea consisting on teaching Critical Thinking matters.
