The Routledge Companion to Indigenous Repatriation Return Reconcile Renew

The Routledge Companion to Indigenous Repatriation Return Reconcile Renew

This volume brings together Indigenous and non-Indigenous repatriation practitioners and researchers to provide the reader with an international overview of the removal and return of Ancestral Remains. The Ancestral Remains of Indigenous peoples are today housed in museums and other collecting institutions globally. They were taken from anywhere the deceased can be found and their removal occurred within a context of deep power imbalance within a colonial project that had a lasting effect on Indigenous peoples worldwide. Through the efforts of First Nations campaigners many have returned home. However a large number are still retained. In many countries the repatriation issue has driven a profound change in the relationship between Indigenous peoples and collecting institutions. It has enabled significant steps towards resetting this relationship from one constrained by colonisation to one that seeks a more just dignified and truthful basis for interaction. The history of repatriation is one of Indigenous perseverance and success. The authors of this book contribute major new work and explore new facets of this global movement. They reflect on nearly 40 years of repatriation its meaning and value impact and effect. This book is an invaluable contribution to repatriation practice and research providing a wealth of new knowledge to readers with interests in Indigenous histories self-determination and the relationship between collecting institutions and Indigenous peoples. | The Routledge Companion to Indigenous Repatriation Return Reconcile Renew

Love Justice and Autonomy Philosophical Perspectives

Love Justice and Autonomy Philosophical Perspectives

Philosophers have long been interested in love and its general role in morality. This volume focuses on and explores the complex relation between love and justice as it appears within loving relationships between lovers and their wider social context and the broader political realm. Special attention is paid to the ensuing challenge of understanding and respecting the lovers’ personal autonomy in all three contexts. Accordingly the essays in this volume are divided into three thematic sections. Section I aims at shedding further light on conceptual and practical issues concerning the compatibility or incompatibility of love and justice within relationships of love. For example are loving relations inherently unjust? Might love require justice? Or do love and justice belong to distinct moral domains? The essays in Section II consider the relation between the lovers on the one hand and their broader societal environment on the other. Specifically how exactly are love and impartiality related? Are they compatible or not? Is it unjust to favor one’s beloved? Finally Section III looks at the political dimensions of love and justice. How for instance do various accounts of love inform how we are to relate to our fellow citizens? If love is taken to play an important role in fostering or hindering the development of personal autonomy what are the political implications that need to be addressed and how? In addressing these questions this book engenders a better understanding both of conceptual and practical issues regarding the relation between love justice and autonomy as well as their broader societal and political implications. It will be of interest to advanced students and scholars working on the philosophy of love from ethical political and psychological angles. | Love Justice and Autonomy Philosophical Perspectives

Why It's OK to Love Bad Movies

Why It's OK to Love Bad Movies

Most people are too busy to keep up with all the good movies they’d like to see so why should anyone spend their precious time watching the bad ones? In Why It’s OK to Love Bad Movies philosopher and cinematic bottom feeder Matthew Strohl enthusiastically defends a fondness for disreputable films. Combining philosophy of art with film criticism Strohl flips conventional notions of good and bad on their heads and makes the case that the ultimate value of a work of art lies in what it can add to our lives. By this measure some of the worst movies ever made are also among the best. Through detailed discussions of films such as Troll 2 The Room Batman & Robin Twilight Ninja III: The Domination and a significant portion of Nicolas Cage’s filmography Strohl argues that so-called bad movies are the ones that break the rules of the art form without the aura of artistic seriousness that surrounds the avant-garde. These movies may not win any awards but they offer rich opportunities for creative engagement and enable the formation of lively fan communities and they can be a key ingredient in a fulfilling aesthetic life. Key Features: Written in a humorous approachable style appealing to readers with no background in philosophy. Elaborates the rewards of loving bad movies such as forming unlikely social bonds and developing refinement without narrowness. Discusses a wide range of beloved bad movies including Plan 9 from Outer Space The Core Battlefield Earth and Freddy Got Fingered. Contains the most extensive discussion of Nicolas Cage ever included in a philosophy book. | Why It's OK to Love Bad Movies

Rethinking Migration and Return in Southeastern Europe Albanian Mobilities to and from Italy and Greece

Rethinking Migration and Return in Southeastern Europe Albanian Mobilities to and from Italy and Greece

This book provides an important new analytical framework for making sense of return remigration and circular mobility conceptualising them as different phases of a wider migration process. Using an in-depth case study of Albania and its two main destination countries Italy and Greece the book demonstrates that instead of being viewed as a linear path between origin and destination migration should be seen as a segmented or cyclical pattern that may involve several localities and more than two countries. Characterised by important previous historical social economic and political linkages geographical proximity but also high migration volatility and sustained flows in either directions Albanian migration to Italy and Greece offers an optimal case study for analysing complex return reintegration and mobility processes. While interesting as a unique regional migration system the lessons learned cast light on important migration and mobility dynamics that are relevant for labour migration in Europe also from other important migrant origin countries in the EU’s neighbourhood such as for instance Morocco or the Ukraine. This rich theoretical and empirical study will be of interest to researchers within European Studies and Migration Studies as well as providing a useful contribution to policy debates on how to govern return migration reintegration and circular migration.
