Hegemonic Masculinity, Caste, and the Body - Navjotpal Kaur - Bog - Emerald Publishing Limited - Plusbog.dk

Hegemonic Masculinity, Caste, and the Body - Navjotpal Kaur - Bog - Emerald Publishing Limited - Plusbog.dk

Hegemonic Masculinity, Caste, and the Body investigates the intricate interplay between masculinities, space, and identity within Indian Punjab’s Jat Sikh community. Through a series of insightful chapters, Navjotpal Kaur delves into the dynamic landscape of Jat masculinity, examining its historical roots, contemporary expressions, and global dimensions. Beginning with an exploration of hegemonic masculinity in the context of Jat identity, Kaur traces the influences of colonial-era valorization of Jat Sikh soldiers to present-day transnational forces, providing a comprehensive understanding of the socio-historical factors shaping Jat masculinities. She further investigates the entanglement of masculinity with Punjab''s agrarian landscape, where the exclusionary practices often sideline women and men belonging to other castes, illustrating how economic hardships have led to dire (gendered) consequences like farmer suicides. With a unique focus on the embodiment of caste among Jat men, her analysis also unveils deeper societal shifts impacting the formation of Jat identity by examining how spaces like agricultural fields symbolize masculinity. Utilizing Bourdieu''s framework, chapters unpack the significance of corporeal customs in perpetuating caste affiliations, revealing the layered nature of Jat identity as warriors, farmers, and socially privileged individuals. Kaur also explores the shifting gender dynamics within the Punjabi community, shaped by migration trends and economic challenges, before delving into the vulnerabilities faced by transnational masculinities, particularly among second-generation Indo-Canadians. From investigating gang-related activities to navigating intraethnic othering, Kaur also sheds light on the complex journeys of migrant youth in shaping their identities abroad. Offering a nuanced exploration of the Jat Sikh identity, Hegemonic Masculinity, Caste, and the Body highlights its resilience, complexities, and vulnerabilities amidst changing socio-economic landscapes, thoughtfully invoking wider conversations around gender, culture, and self-perception.

Healing Through Communication - Carol Leppanen Montgomery - Bog - SAGE Publications Inc - Plusbog.dk

Healing Through Communication - Carol Leppanen Montgomery - Bog - SAGE Publications Inc - Plusbog.dk

Advancing caring as an intrinsic part of nursing, the author of this volume offers a theory of caring that is grounded in both clinical practice and existing theory. Author Carol Leppanen Montgomery describes the qualities and behavioral manifestations the caregiver needs to communicate caring and the unique qualities of the health care system that shape the communication of caring. She then lauds transformative effects of caring while admitting the emotional risks caregivers undertake. Finally, a model is presented that describes the support necessary to sustain this level of communication and to help caregivers cope with the emotional demands of caring. Demonstrating the depth and complexity of caring communication, Healing Through Communication is a valuable resource for caregivers in all the helping disciplines, especially nursing, allied health, and social work. "This is an exceptional piece of writing. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it and heartily recommend it . . . . Is a book on this topic needed? Absolutely. Too often we make assumptions about the nature of caring, how it is learned, expressed, or enhanced. The placement of caring within a framework of relational communications is an extremely helpful way to visualize, teach, and support this phenomenon . . . . The strengths of this text are many, but briefly, I most appreciate the conceptual focus and placing of caring as a tangible, describable, communications phenomenon; the comprehensive treatment of the subject . . . and the many detailed exemplars of caring from a variety of caregiver roles and settings." --Mary Aukerman, Ph.D., R.N., Director of Nursing Education and Research, Shadyside Hospital, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania " Healing Through Communication takes the concept of practice to a deeper level of understanding, experiencing, and living. The unique focus of this work is the way Dr. Montgomery places the caring-healing relationship as central to nursing education and practice." --Jean Watson, Ph.D., R.N., F.A.A.N., University of Colorado Health Sciences Center "This fine qualitative research report presents information about an essential topic of interest to educators, academicians, and clinicians working in the helping professions. The information presented would also be useful in assisting lay or volunteer helpers work with persons in need . . . . The book is an important work and adds significantly to the knowledge of caring . . . . I believe that this is a benchmark effort." --Sylvia A. McSkimming, Ph.D., R.N., Associate Director of Nursing Research and Education, St. Vincent Hospital & Medical Center, Portland, Oregon

Evolution of Sickness and Healing - Horacio Fabrega - Bog - University of California Press - Plusbog.dk

Evolution of Sickness and Healing - Horacio Fabrega - Bog - University of California Press - Plusbog.dk

Evolution of Sickness and Healing is a theoretical work on the grand scale, an original synthesis of many disciplines in social studies of medicine. Looking at human sickness and healing through the lens of evolutionary theory, Horacio Fàbrega, Jr. presents not only the vulnerability to disease and injury but also the need to show and communicate sickness and to seek and provide healing as innate biological traits grounded in evolution. This linking of sickness and healing, as inseparable facets of a unique human adaptation developed during the evolution of the hominid line, offers a new vantage point from which to examine the institution of medicine. To show how this complex, integrated adaptation for sickness and healing lies at the root of medicine, and how it is expressed culturally in relation to the changing historical contingencies of human societies, Fàbrega traces the characteristics of sickness and healing through the early and later stages of social evolution. Besides offering a new conceptual structure and a methodology for analyzing medicine in evolutionary terms, he shows the relevance of this approach and its implications for the social sciences and for medical policy. Health scientists and medical practitioners, along with medical historians, economists, anthropologists, and sociologists, now have the opportunity to consider every essential aspect of medicine within an integrated framework. This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press's mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact. Drawing on a backlist dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality, peer-reviewed scholarship accessible once again using print-on-demand technology.

Ritual Healing in the Zion Christian Church in South Africa - Mookgo Solomon Kgatle - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

Ritual Healing in the Zion Christian Church in South Africa - Mookgo Solomon Kgatle - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

Exploring Indigenous African medicine and faith healing within the Zion Christian Church, this book demonstrates the role of these healing practices from music and prophecy to implemented social restrictions. The Zion Christian Church is one of the largest churches in the African continent with footprints in other parts of the world. The author argues that these theories are important for understanding the healing practices within the broader context of the African Independent Churches. The theories of ritual healing, symbol healing, and holistic healing are brought together in exploring the healing practices in the Zion Christian Church. This book demonstrates that the ritual healing process does not end with healing but extends to the practices of spiritual protection and shielding of patients within African cosmology.Exploring these theories, Mookgo Solomon Kgatle brings us to an understanding of worship beyond liturgical practices toward therapeutic implications. Similarly, practices of prophecies such as diagnostic prophecy, oracular prophecy, and prescriptive prophecy are explored to expound their implications on healing. In addition, the practices of social restrictions and taboos in the Zion Christian Church are discussed to demonstrate their implications on the healing and well-being of adherents.The book also uses decolonial theory to argue that the intersections of Indigenous African medicine and faith healing are relevant for the decolonisation of the knowledge system on faith healing. This connection is important in the development of the theology of indigenous faith healing in the African Independent Churches by using the Zion Christian Church as a case study. Such a theology should be able to make distinctions between African traditional healing and the Indigenous African medicine.

Interconnectivity, Subversion, and Healing in World Christianity - - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

Interconnectivity, Subversion, and Healing in World Christianity - - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

The rise of Christianity around the world has been the impetus for much religious and social change. The interconnectivity of religious centers has resulted in theological dialogue and innovation. The subversion of long-held categories of culture, gender, race, spirituality, theology, and politics has naturally occurred along with the transgressing of borders and boundaries. Yet at the same time, there has been occasion for healing through intercultural experiences of forgiveness, peacemaking, and reconciliation. Stimulated by the work and mentorship of Joel Carpenter, who has done much to expand the study of world Christianity less through focusing on his own research and writing, and more through amplifying the voices of others, the international contributors to this volume from all six continents promote a deeper understanding of World Christianity through the exploration of such related themes. Whether discussing primal spirituality in northeast India, white supremacy in South Africa, evangelical women and civic engagement in Kenya, or Calvinism in Mexico, the contributors draw upon ethnographic case studies to more deeply understand interconnectivity, subversion, and healing in World Christianity. Their essays provoke a reorientation of Christian thought within the study of World Christianity, enriching the current discourse and promoting vistas for further interdisciplinary studies.
