Reinventing Paulo Freire A Pedagogy of Love

Reinventing Paulo Freire A Pedagogy of Love

One of the most influential critical educators of the twentieth century Paulo Freire challenged those educational inequalities and conditions of injustice faced by oppressed populations. In this new edition of Reinventing Paulo Freire Antonia Darder re-examines his legacy through reflections on Freirean pedagogy and the narratives of teachers who reinvent his work. The fully revised first part provides important historical political and economic connections between major societal concerns and educational questions raised by Freire and their link to the contemporary moment including questions tied to neoliberalism coloniality and educational inequalities. At the heart of the book is a critical understanding of how Freire’s pedagogy of love can inform in theory and practice a humanizing approach to teaching and learning. Powerful teacher narratives offer examples of a living praxis committed to democratic classroom life and the emancipation of subaltern communities. The narratives clearly illustrate how Freire’s ideas can be put concretely into practice in schools and communities. These reflections on Freirean praxis are sure to spark conversation and inspiration in teacher education courses. Through a close theoretical engagement of Freire’s ideas and key insights garnered from lived experiences the book speaks to the ways Freire can still inspire contemporary educators to adopt the spirit of liberatory pedagogy By so doing Reinventing Paulo Freire is certain to advance his theories in new ways both to those familiar with his work and to those studying Freire for the first time. | Reinventing Paulo Freire A Pedagogy of Love

Dorothea Lange Documentary Photography and Twentieth-Century America Reinventing Self and Nation

Dorothea Lange Documentary Photography and Twentieth-Century America Reinventing Self and Nation

Dorothea Lange Documentary Photography and Twentieth-Century America charts the life of Dorothea Lange (1895–1965) whose life was radically altered by the Depression and whose photography helped transform the nation. The book begins with her childhood in immigrant metropolitan New York shifting to her young adulthood as a New Woman who apprenticed herself to Manhattan’s top photographers then established a career as portraitist to San Francisco’s elite. When the Great Depression shook America’s economy Lange was profoundly affected. Leaving her studio Lange confronted citizens’ anguish with her camera documenting their economic and social plight. This move propelled her to international renown. This biography synthesizes recent New Deal scholarship and photographic history and probes the unique regional histories of the Pacific West the Plains and the South. Lange’s life illuminates critical transformations in the U. S. specifically women’s evolving social roles and the state’s growing capacity to support vulnerable citizens. The author utilizes the concept of care work the devalued nurturing of others often considered women’s work to analyze Lange’s photography and reassert its power to provoke social change. Lange’s portrayal of the Depression’s ravages is enmeshed in a deeply political project still debated today of the nature of governmental responsibility toward citizens’ basic needs. Students and the general reader will find this a powerful and insightful introduction to Dorothea Lange her work and legacy. Dorothea Lange Documentary Photography and Twentieth-Century America makes a compelling case for the continuing political and social significance of Lange’s work as she recorded persistent injustices such as poverty labor exploitation racism and environmental degradation. | Dorothea Lange Documentary Photography and Twentieth-Century America Reinventing Self and Nation

Although environmental health has received some recognition as a field which can positively impact on the social determinants of health it remains little known outside its immediate sphere of influence. There is also limited literature available to support the potential impact of the profession in public health policy circles and there has been an overreliance on anecdotal rather than firm evidence. This book presents the findings of an empirical research project focussed on public health policymaking (English Health and Wellbeing Boards) health inequalities and environmental health and provides an insight to the environmental health profession and routes of impact and influence. It discusses environmental health in the context of public health the role of the profession issues of visibility and opportunities for impact in today’s policy landscape. In particular a focus on the local government context is timely given the shifting of the public health function from the National Health Service to local authorities. This book is essential reading for students practitioners and policymakers in the fields of environmental health and public health. | Tackling Health Inequalities Reinventing the Role of Environmental Health

Saving The Planet By Design Reinventing Our World Through Ecomimesis

Saving The Planet By Design Reinventing Our World Through Ecomimesis

Can we ‘save the Planet’? For a resilient durable and sustainable future for human society we need to repurpose reinvent redesign remake and recover our human-made world so that our built environment is benignly and seamlessly biointegrated with Nature to function synergistically with it. These are the multiple tasks that humanity must carry out imminently if there is to be a future for human society and all lifeforms and their environments on the Planet. Addressing this is the most compelling question for those whose daily work impacts on Nature such as architects engineers landscape architects town planners environmental policy makers builders and others but it is a question that all of humanity needs to urgently address. Presented here are two key principles as the means to carry out these tasks – ‘ecocentricity’ being guided by the science of ecology and ‘ecomimesis’ as designing and making the built environment including all artefacts based on the emulation and replication of the ‘ecosystem’ concept. Designing with ecology is contended here as the authentic approach to green design from which the next generation of green design will emerge going beyond current use of accreditation systems. For those who subscribe to this principle this is articulated here showing how it can be implemented by design. Adopting these principles is fundamental in our endeavour to save our Planet Earth and changes profoundly and in entirety the way we design make manage and operate our built environment. | Saving The Planet By Design Reinventing Our World Through Ecomimesis

Reinventing Regional Security Institutions in Asia and Africa Power shifts ideas and institutional change

Reinventing Regional Security Institutions in Asia and Africa Power shifts ideas and institutional change

Regional security institutions play a significant role in shaping the behavior of existing and rising regional powers by nurturing security norms and rules monitoring state activities and sometimes imposing sanctions thereby formulating the configuration of regional security dynamics. Yet their security roles and influence do not remain constant. Their raison d’etre objectives and functions experience sporadic changes and some institutions upgrade military functions for peacekeeping operations while others limit their functions to political and security dialogues. The question is: why and how do these variances in institutional change emerge? This book explores the mechanisms of institutional change focusing on regional security institutions led by non-great powers. It constructs a theoretical model for institutional change that provides a new understanding of their changing roles in regional security which has yet to be fully explored in the International Relations field. In so doing the book illuminates why when and how each organization restructures its role function and influence. Using case studies of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) and the Organization of African Unity (OAU)/ African Union (AU) it also sheds light on similarities and differences in institutional change between regional security institutions. | Reinventing Regional Security Institutions in Asia and Africa Power shifts ideas and institutional change

The Religious Paintings of Hendrick ter Brugghen Reinventing Christian Painting after the Reformation in Utrecht

The Religious Paintings of Hendrick ter Brugghen Reinventing Christian Painting after the Reformation in Utrecht

The first in-depth study of the Utrecht artist to address questions beyond connoisseurship and attribution this book makes a significant contribution to Ter Brugghen and Northern Caravaggist studies. Focusing on the Dutch master's simultaneous use of Northern archaisms with Caravaggio's motifs and style Natasha Seaman nuances our understanding of Ter Brugghen's appropriations from the Italian painter. Her analysis centers on four paintings all depicting New Testament subjects. They include Ter Brugghen's largest and first known signed work (Crowning with Thorns) his most archaizing (the Crucifixion) and the two paintings most directly related to the works of Caravaggio (the Doubting Thomas and the Calling of Matthew). By examining the ways in which Ter Brugghen's paintings deliberately diverge from Caravaggio's Seaman sheds new light on the Utrecht artist and his work. For example she demonstrates that where Caravaggio's paintings are boldly illusionistic and mimetic thus de-emphasizing their materiality Ter Brugghen's works examined here create the opposite effect connecting their content to their made form. This study not only illuminates the complex meanings of the paintings addressed here but also offers insights into the image debates and the status of devotional art in Italy and Utrecht in the seventeenth century by examining one artist's response to them. | The Religious Paintings of Hendrick ter Brugghen Reinventing Christian Painting after the Reformation in Utrecht
