Oral History and Qualitative Methodologies: Educational Research for Social Justice examines oral history methodological processes involved in the doing of…
oral history as well as the theoretical, historical, and knowledge implications of using oral history for social justice projects. Oral history in qualitative research is an umbrella term that integrates history, life history, and testimony accounts. Oral history draws from various social science disciplines, including educational studies, history, indigenous studies, sociology, anthropology, ethnic studies, women’s studies, and youth studies. The book argues for the further development of a pedagogical culture related to oral history for educational research as part of the effort to diversify the range of human experiences educators, community members, and policy makers incorporate into knowledge-making and knowledge-using processes. Early career researchers, novice researchers, as well as experienced researchers are invited to join social science educational researchers in developing their own oral history projects using all of the tools, dispositions, and epistemologies affiliated with qualitative inquiry. The book will be of use in courses on qualitative research methods, history, anthropology, women’s studies, and education disciplines as well as by community organizations who want to use oral history to preserve the history of communities and advance social justice projects.By John S. Gero. 2022

precursor of modern science At the same time the cogito s agent the ego is sometimes feared as the agency of manipulative domination responsible for all present woes from patriarchal oppression to ecological catastrophes Without psychoanalyzing philosophy Cogito and the Unconscious explores the vicissitudes of the cogito and shows that psychoanalyses can render visible a constitutive madness within modern philosophy the point at which I think therefore I am becomes obsessional neurosis characterized by If I stop thinking I will cease to exist Noting that for Lacan the Cartesian construct is the same as the Freudian subject of the unconscious the contributors follow Lacan s plea for a psychoanalytic return to the cogito Along the path of this return they examine the ethical attitude that befits modern subjectivity the inherent sexualization of modern subjectivity the impasse in which the Cartesian project becomes involved given the enigmatic status of the human body and the Cartesian subject s confrontation with its modern critics including Althusser Bataille and Dennett In a style that has become familiar to Zizek s readers these essays bring together a strict conceptual analysis and an approach to a wide range of cultural and ideological phenomena--from the sadist paradoxes of Kant s moral philosophy to the universe of Ayn Rand s novels from the question Which if any is the sex of the cogito to the defense of the cogito against the onslaught of cognitive sciences Challenging us to reconsider fundamental notions of human consciousness and modern subjectivity this is a book whose very Lacanian orthodoxy makes it irreverently transgressive of predominant theoretical paradigms Cogito and the Unconscious will appeal to readers interested in philosophy psychoanalysis cultural studies and theories of ideology Contributors Miran Bozovic Mladen Dolar Alain Grosrichard Marc de Kessel Robert Pfaller Renata Salecl Slavoj Zizek Alenka ZupancicBy Nancy Gerber. 2022
Imagination and Arts-Based Practices for Integration in Research explores the philosophical assumptions, defining concepts, and methodological issues related to the…
introduction of intentional imaginative mental processes and arts-based practices into some or all phases of investigation, and data integration of particular research approaches. Although typically central to mixed, multi-method, and arts-based research, the practice of integrating diverse forms of data might be applied to other research traditions. The integration of data diversity represents a deviation from traditional scientific thinking demanding a dramatic paradigm shift inclusive of multi-dimensional, nondiscursive, aesthetic, rhizomatic, and imaginative mental processes. In this book, imaginative mental processes and arts-based practices are described and illustrated as approaches to investigating, revealing, and understanding the elusive yet essential meanings hidden in the crevices, shadows, and liminal spaces in between diverse data sets leading to integration, illumination, and synthesis. The book will appeal to arts-based, mixed methods, and adventurous researchers. It walks the reader through the revisionist philosophical assumptions and offers aligned methodological suggestions to the induction of imaginative mental processes and arts-based practices into research.By Paul Gilbert. 2022

The first section of the book explores the evolution and physiological infrastructures of caring, and how compassion arises when humans use their complex cognitive competencies to address suffering deliberately and intentionally. With this framework and basis, the next sections of the book explore CFT applied to groups, specific interventions such as chair work, the importance of applying the principles of the therapy to oneself, the CFT therapeutic relationship, and a chapter offering a systematic review of the evidence for CFT. The third section offers a series of multi-authored chapters on interventions for a range of different mental health problems such as depression, anxiety, trauma, and many others. Being the first major clinical book on compassion focused therapy, with leading international researchers and clinicians addressing central problems, this landmark publication will appeal to psychotherapists from a variety of schools as well as being a vital resource for compassion focused therapists.By Usha Mudiganti. 2022
This book studies the dialectic relationship between the image of the child and the toy in literary depictions of childhood…
in 19th- and 20th- century Anglo-American fiction. Drawing from the psychoanalytic theories of Sigmund Freud, Anna Freud, D.W. Winnicott, and Sudhir Kakar, it analyses themes such as the heterogeneity of childhood and the construction of the ideals of childhood. It explores the linkages between the ideals of childhood in Britain and its travel to America and further dissemination in British India. It discusses the established tropes of childhood such as innocence, a formative period, the centrality of play, and the presence of a toy to argue that the mores of childhood are culturally constructed and lead to the reification of a child into an image of perfection. The author problematises the notion of essential innocence and discusses the repercussions of such stereotypes about childhood. The work also highlights parallels between the ideals of childhood established in 19th-century Britain and the portrayals of postcolonial Indian childhoods in 20th-century Indian English literature. Toying with Childhood will be useful for students and researchers of education, childhood studies, psychology, sociology, literature, gender studies, and development studies. It will also appeal to general readers interested in cultural perceptions of childhood, literary depictions of children, and the works of Sigmund Freud.By Paul E. Spector. 2022
