Download or read book Social Construction of Reality as Communicative Action written by Antonio Sandu and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2016-05-11 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The central focus of this volume is social constructionism in all its dimensions, including its sociological, ontological, epistemological, methodological, ethical, and pragmatic features. It pays particularly close attention to the social construction of reality as a communicative action, extending this area to include social pragmatics. It also interprets social action as a discursive-seductive strategy of exercising power in the public space, utilising a constructionist understanding, in which public space is represented by any part of the co-construction of reality through social or communicative action. In addition, at the methodological level, the book proposes a new semiotic strategy, called “fractal constructionism”, which analyses the interpretative drift of certain key concepts that are valued as social constructs.

Download or read book Ethics for Evaluation written by Rob D. van den Berg and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-12-30 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Ethics for Evaluation the diverse perspectives on ethical guidance in evaluation are untangled and ordered in a theoretical framework focusing on evaluations doing no harm, tackling bad and doing good. Divided into four parts a diverse group of subject experts present a practical look at ethics, utilizing practical experience to analyze how ethics have been applied in evaluations and how new approaches can shape the future of ethics. The chapters collectively create a common understanding of the potential role of ethics to infuse policy decisions and stakeholder initiatives with evaluations that provide better insight and potential solutions for problems, going beyond "what works" to what needs to be done and what would help. The methodological scope ranges from working in contexts of fragility, conflict and violence, to participatory and decolonized approaches, including the ethical imperatives posed by global crises such as climate change, inequity and exploitative international relations. Ethics for Evaluation presents evaluators, commissioners of evaluation, policymakers and practitioners with inspiration for an ethical perspective on how evaluation can contribute towards solving problems. It presents a solid foundation for inclusive terminology and ethics guidance that would be the heart of a global exercise in professionalization of ethical evaluation practice.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, 34 renowned philosophical practitioners from 20 different countries present a variety of dialogue methods for philosophical practice, which have never before been published in such a compact and compiled form. By having Socrates and his method of maieutics (the art of midwifery of the soul, as he called it) as one of its main sources of inspiration, the book offers different methodological approaches in order to prompt people to wonder, to reflect, to change perspective, and to think differently; in short, to make people philosophize about life and the way they live it.

Download or read book Co-Creativity and Engaged Scholarship written by Alex Franklin and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-01-02 with total page 577 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book explores creative and collaborative forms of research praxis within the social sustainability sciences. The term co-creativity is used in reference to both individual methods and overarching research approaches. Supported by a series of in-depth examples, the edited collection critically reviews the potential of co-creative research praxis to nurture just and transformative processes of change. Included amongst the individual chapters are first-hand accounts of such as: militant research strategies and guerrilla narrative, decolonial participative approaches, appreciative inquiry and care-ethics, deep-mapping, photo-voice, community-arts, digital participatory mapping, creative workshops and living labs. The collection considers how, through socially inclusive forms of action and reflection, such co-creative methods can be used to stimulate alternative understandings of why and how things are, and how they could be. It provides illustrations of (and problematizes) the use of co-creative methods as overtly disruptive interventions in their own right, and as a means of enriching the transformative potential of transdisciplinary and more traditional forms of social science research inquiry. The positionality of the researcher, together with the emotional and embodied dimensions of engaged scholarship, are threads which run throughout the book. So too does the question of how to communicate sustainability science research in a meaningful way.

Download or read book Appreciating the Chinese Difference written by Jim Behuniak and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2018-07-11 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this volume, prominent philosophers working in Chinese thought and related areas critically reflect upon the work of Roger T. Ames, one of the most significant contemporary figures working in the field of Chinese philosophy. Through his decades of collaborative work in comparative methodology and cross-cultural interpretation, along with a number of pathbreaking translations of Chinese philosophical texts, Ames has managed to challenge standing paradigms and open fresh avenues of research into the Chinese tradition. His work will be read and studied for years to come. The original essays presented here, which are substantive philosophical contributions in their own right, cover the full range of Ames's scholarly output. They address methodological questions as well as specific issues in textual interpretation, including ample discussion of Ames's most recent and provocative contribution: Confucian "role ethics." In the final section of the book, Ames responds to each essay. The result is a conversation and engagement that both underscores the vitality of his thinking and indicates the directions it may take in the future. Altogether, this work provides a snapshot of a remarkable career—and an invitation to continue reflecting upon its meaning and importance.

Download or read book You're Equal written by Samantha Standish and published by Samantha Standish. This book was released on with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ARE YOU EQUAL? A former attorney, Samantha Standish, discovered the answer to this question when she woke up one morning not attached to her body. Her findings became the book, “You’re Equal.” “You’re Equal” is a unique perspective on equality because it’s not political, philosophical, or religious. The book is a description and interpretation of how equality works as a mechanic in the construction of reality. “Being out of body was like a physics field trip where I got to experience the structure of reality for a short while,” says Standish. “Imagine living the properties of an electromagnetic field. That was what it was like.” Standish returned from that experience with the idea that the energy that composes matter exists in paradoxical, undivided states and that this had significance for humans because it meant that nothing was divided. To Standish, everyone was equal because it wasn’t possible to eliminate, separate, or leave out anything. “You’re Equal” is a balm to the soul and a must read for anyone that wants to understand the mechanics of equality from the ground up.
