Book Synopsis Politics, Society, and the Media, Second Edition by : Paul Nesbitt-Larking
Download or read book Politics, Society, and the Media, Second Edition written by Paul Nesbitt-Larking and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2007-01-01 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Politics, Society, and the Media is the first comprehensive political sociology of the media to be published in Canada. Paul Nesbitt-Larking draws upon a range of disciplines, including cultural and media studies, political economy, social theory, and political science to provide an analysis of the relationship between power and representation in Canada. The framework for the book presents a model of the mutual interaction between politics and the media. Attention is focused in the early chapters on how cultural, ideological, economic, and governmental forces shape and condition the production of media in Canada. Chapters on the work of Innis, Grant, McLuhan, and their postmodern successors place the evolution of McLuhan's theoretical argument that "the medium is the message" at the heart of the book. Canadian identity, and how to understand Canadian media politically, is the subject of a chapter on textual analysis. Two extensive chapters follow on the media’s influence and effects on politics. In addition to standard topics on politics and the media, this new edition offers much more: an examination of the media on the politics of gender and aboriginal peoples, the micro-politics of the media workplace, and an exploration of important media-related considerations. Throughout, reference is made to relevant and compelling issues placed within the context of media theory.

The authors show how and why American class membership in the 21st century is based on an organizationally-based distribution of critical resources including income, investment capital, credentialed skills verified by elite schools, and social connections to organizational leaders.

Book Synopsis The Handbook for Working with Difficult Groups by : Sandy Schuman
Download or read book The Handbook for Working with Difficult Groups written by Sandy Schuman and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2010-04-26 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: WE'VE ALL EXPERIENCED the challenges associated with working with groups, but The Handbook for Working with Difficult Groups turns the idea of "difficult groups" on its head. Rather than view groups as inherently difficult, it looks at the factors that make working with groups difficult. Individual chapters focus on challenges such as involving dissenters, building external perspectives, reducing complaining, adapting to cultural differences, incorporating diversity, facilitating inclusion, working virtually, resolving identity-based conflict, transforming unproductive behavior patterns, preventing workplace harassment, and strengthening accountability. The book first provides a framework for thinking systemically about the many and varied ways in which working with a group can be difficult. Building on that framework, the contributors each address three basic issues: How the group is difficult—a description of a real group and the observable phenomena that reflect the group's difficulty. Why the group is difficult—an exploration of the underlying causes of the difficulty. What you can do about it—what you can do as a group facilitator, leader, or member to help the group.
Book Synopsis The British Women's Suffrage Campaign 1866-1928 by : Harold L. Smith
Download or read book The British Women's Suffrage Campaign 1866-1928 written by Harold L. Smith and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-05-12 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Seminar Study was the first book to trace the British women’s suffrage campaign from its origins in the 1860s through to the achievement of equal suffrage in 1928. In this second edition, Smith provides new evidence drawn from the author’s research on how the main post-1918 women’s organisation (the NUSEC) worked with Conservative Party women to persuade the Conservative Party to endorse equal franchise rights. Smith focuses on the actions of reformers and their opponents, with due attention paid to the campaigns in Scotland and Wales as well as the movements in England. He explores why women’s suffrage was such a contentious issue, and how women gained the vote despite opponents’ fears that it would undermine gender boundaries. Suitable for students studying the Suffrage Movement, modern British history and the history of gender.

Book Synopsis The Way of a Child by : A. C. Harwood
Download or read book The Way of a Child written by A. C. Harwood and published by Rudolf Steiner Press. This book was released on 2013-05-17 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the development of modern educational theories and the ingenious methods devised to hold a child's attention today, education – and even childhood – appear to be facing something of a crisis. The fact that boredom – or even extreme violence – can be spoken of in connection with little children is a sad reflection on our times. Are children in danger of losing the natural human fantasy that is the source of all creative imagination in later life? Are we in danger indeed of losing childhood altogether? Although first published in 1940, Cecil Harwood's little book has become a classic introduction to the perennial themes of child development and growth, and to the basic principles of Rudolf Steiner/Waldorf education. Cecil Harwood (1898 – 1975) was one of the founding members of the first Waldorf school in the English-speaking world, and worked for many years as a Steiner teacher. His sensitive awareness and respect for the innate wisdom of childhood shine through this book. As he demonstrates, a sympathetic and loving picture of this natural childhood wisdom is a prerequisite of any good educational endeavour.
Book Synopsis Medieval afterlives by : Daisy Black
Download or read book Medieval afterlives written by Daisy Black and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2024-05-28 with total page 411 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A collection of essays which show how early drama traditions were transformed, recycled, re-used and reformed across time to form new relationships with their audiences. Medieval afterlives brings new insight to the ways in which peoples in the sixteenth century understood, manipulated and responded to the history of their performance spaces, stage technologies, characterisation and popular dramatic tropes. In doing so, this volume advocates for a new understanding of sixteenth-seventeenth century theatre makers as highly aware of the medieval traditions that formed their performance practices, and audiences who recognised and appreciated the recycling of these practices between plays.
