Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This key textbook provides a comprehensive and up-to-date account of developments in international communication worldwide.

Book Synopsis Understanding Global Cultures by : Martin J. Gannon
Download or read book Understanding Global Cultures written by Martin J. Gannon and published by SAGE Publications, Incorporated. This book was released on 1994-01-11 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With a unique perspective on global multiculturalism and diversity, this book introduces a new method, the cultural metaphor, for understanding easily and quickly the cultural mindset of a nation and comparing it to other nations. Martin J Gannon identifies a key aspect of a nation′s culture that most exemplifies the essence of that country. The characteristics of that metaphor become the basis for describing and understanding the cultural mindset of a society, the manner in which its members think, feel and behave, simply because they are members of that culture. 17 nations are examined in this manner. Understanding Global Cultures is challenging, provocative, and essential reading for scholars, students and international business and policy professionals who must come to grips with today′s global environment.
Book Synopsis Understanding Global Sexualities by : Peter Aggleton
Download or read book Understanding Global Sexualities written by Peter Aggleton and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-07-26 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the course of the past thirty years, there has been an explosion of work on sexuality, both conceptually and methodologically. From a relatively limited, specialist field, the study of sexuality has expanded across a wide range of social sciences. Yet as the field has grown, it has become apparent that a number of leading edge critical issues remain. This theory-building book explores some of the areas in which there is major and continuing debate, for example, about the relationship between sexuality and gender; about the nature and status of heterosexuality; about hetero- and homo-normativity; about the influence and intersection of class, race, age and other factors in sexual trajectories, identities and lifestyles; and about how best to understand the new forms of sexuality that are emerging in both rich world and developing world contexts. With contributions from leading and new scholars and activists from across the globe, this book highlights tensions or ‘flash-points’ in contemporary debate, and offers some innovative ways forward in terms of thinking about sexuality – both theoretically and with respect to policy and programme development. An extended essay by Henrietta Moore introduces the volume, and an afterword by Jeffrey Weeks offers pointers for the future. The contributors bring together a range of experiences and a variety of disciplinary perspectives in engaging with three key themes of sexual subjectivity and global transformations, sexualities in practice, and advancing new thinking on sexuality in policy and programmatic contexts. It is of interest to students, researchers and activists in sexuality, sexual health and gender studies, especially those working from public health, sociological and anthropological perspectives.
Book Synopsis Understanding Global Skills for 21st Century Professions by : Douglas Bourn
Download or read book Understanding Global Skills for 21st Century Professions written by Douglas Bourn and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-10-24 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book highlights the increasing need for people who will be working in professions such as teaching, health, engineering and business management to have the skills for living and working in a global society. Globalisation and the challenges resulting from recent political events in Europe and North America have given rise to a need for training and further and higher education programmes to address the skills young people all need to effectively engage in the current global society. Reviewing the range of theories and debates surrounding skills for the twenty-first century, the author suggests there is a need to directly address the real-world issues of today and move beyond abstract concepts such as team work, critical thinking and problem solving, as important as these concepts are. The author proposes a new framework for global skills using examples from international and national policy-makers and evidence from further and higher educational programmes and training courses. This pioneering yet practical book will be of value to students and scholars of global education as well as practitioners and policy makers.
