    Abstract: In An Imagined Geography, anthropologist JoAnn D'Alisera demonstrates persuasively that the long-held anthropological paradigms of separate, bounded, and unique communities, geographically located and neatly localized, must be reconsidered in light of the range and diversity of the Sierra Leonean diaspora.

    Abstract: Currently, lone mothers and their children make up almost 20 per cent of families with dependent children in the UK, a threefold increase since 1970. Yet, while they are often cited by politicians as both a symptom and cause of social breakdown, relatively little is known of the causes, consequences and conditions of lone motherhood in Britain and throughout Europe. Good Enough Mothering? provides accounts of historical patterns of mothering and ideologies of the family with cross-national comparisons of policies and experience of lone motherhood in developed and developing countries. Countries include: Britain, US, Norway, South Africa, Kenya, Thailand, India, Brazil and the Caribbean. This engaging edited collection will appeal to students of social policy, women's studies and social work.

    Abstract: The Politics of Security tells the story of how people experienced the cold war as a war. It is about the impact of the cold war on political cultures. This crucial issue is often forgotten in historical memory. In particular, the book follows British and West German anti-nuclear-weapons activists in their attempts to campaign for and create security after the destruction of the Second World War, and how their own version of security clashed with concepts advanced by their own governments. But the book also demonstrates how, as part of the protests against nuclear weapons, activists and their societies learned to live with the Bomb: it recounts how activists first discovered the dangers of nuclear weapons, but how a different generation of activists came to focus on other issues as the Vietnam War became their primary concern. And it makes comprehensible how activists in two societies who had fought each other fiercely in the battle of dictatorships and democracies of the Second World War could now come to see each other as part of a common campaign. Fundamentally, with its transnational approach, the book highlights how these two societies drew on very similar arguments when they came to understand the cold war through the prism of the previous world war. The book is the first to capture in a transnational fashion what activists did on the marches and what it meant to them and to others. The book thus reminds us that threats are not merely out there, but that they need to be created in a political process that involves struggles for power and contestation.

    Abstract: Challenging the idea that feminism in the United States is dead or in decline, Everywhere and Nowhere examines the contours of contemporary feminism. Through a nuanced investigation of three feminist communities, Jo Reger shows how contemporary feminists react to the local environment currently shaping their identities, tactics, discourse, and relations with other feminist generations. By moving the analysis to the community level, Reger illustrates how feminism is simultaneously absent from the national, popular culture--"nowhere"--and diffused into the foundations of American culture--"everywhere." Reger addresses some of the most debated topics concerning feminists in the twenty-first century. How do contemporary feminists think of the second-wave generation? Has contemporary feminism succeeded in addressing racism and classism, and created a more inclusive movement? How are contemporary feminists dealing with their legacy of gender, sex, and sexuality in a world of fluid identity and queer politics? The answers, she finds, vary by community.Everywhere and Nowhere offers a clear, empirical analysis of the state of contemporary feminism while also revealing the fascinating and increasingly complex development of community-level feminist groups in the United States.

    Abstract: Although it is one of the least-known social movements of the 1960s and 1970s, the Asian American movement drew upon some of the most powerful currents of the era, and had a wide-ranging impact on the political landscape of Asian America, and more generally, the United States. Using the racial discourse of the black power and other movements, as well as antiwar activist and the global decolonization movements, the Asian American movement succeeded in creating a multi-ethnic alliance of Asians in the United States and gave them a voice in their own destinies. Rethinking the Asian American Movement provides a short, accessible overview of this important social and political movement, highlighting key events and key figures, the movement's strengths and weaknesses, how it intersected with other social and political movements of the time, and its lasting effect on the country. It is perfect for anyone wanting to obtain an introduction to the Asian American movement of the twentieth century.

    Abstract: Twentieth Century Drifter: The Life of Marty Robbins is the first biography of this legendary country music artist and NASCAR driver who scored sixteen number-one hits and two Grammy awards. Yet even with fame and fortune, Marty Robbins always yearned for more. _x000B_Drawing from personal interviews and in-depth research, biographer Diane Diekman explains how Robbins saw himself as a drifter, a man always searching for self-fulfillment and inner peace. Born Martin David Robinson to a hardworking mother and abusive alcoholic father, he never fully escaped from the insecurities burned into him by a poverty-stricken nomadic childhood in the Arizona desert. In 1947 he got his first gig as a singer and guitar player. Too nervous to talk, the shy young man walked onstage singing. Soon he changed his name to Marty Robbins, cultivated his magnetic stage presence, and established himself as an entertainer, songwriter, and successful NASCAR driver._x000B__x000B_.

    Abstract: Die Modejournale des ausgehenden 18. und des beginnenden 19. Jahrhunderts versprachen ihrem breiten Publikum die Vermittlung von Lebensstil und Geschmack. Geschmacksbildung tangierte im zeitgenoessischen Verstaendnis den einzelnen wie das Gemeinwesen. Sie war auch von oekonomischer Bedeutung; die Magazine bemuehten sich um eine Gewerbefoerderung. Sie waren auf die in Paris und London entworfenen Leitbilder ausgerichtet. Gleichwohl propagierten sie einen nationalen Geschmack. Es zeigt sich, wie weit die nationale Idee verankert war. Gerade an die Leserinnen richteten sich zahlreiche Artikel, die das Verhaeltnis zwischen den Geschlechtern zum Thema hatten. Einem komparativen Ansatz folgend wurden gemischte Modemagazine aus England, Frankreich, Deutschland, den Niederlanden und Italien herangezogen.

    Abstract: Ohne eine allgemein anerkannte reichsrechtliche Grundlage unterwarf Preußen zwischen 1792 und 1798 die seinen fränkischen Provinzen benachbarten reichsritterschaftlichen Güter mit Gewalt seiner Landeshoheit. Damit erschütterte es die Reichsverfassung in ihren Grundfesten und beschleunigte das Ende des Alten Reiches. Mit Hilfe von Quellen in- und ausländischer Archive rekonstruiert diese Arbeit die Ereignisse zwischen den Jahren 1792 bis 1798 und unterzieht sie einer Neubewertung. Dabei geht sie nicht nur auf die diplomatischen, militärischen, reichsgerichtlichen und publizistischen Mittel ein, mit denen Berlin und die Reichsritterschaft um die »Reichsunmittelbarkeit« der Rittergüter rangen. Sie zeichnet auch die sozialen, politischen und reichsrechtlichen Entwicklungen nach, die die preußischen »Mediatisierungen« erst ermöglichten.   Ohne eine allgemein anerkannte reichsrechtliche Grundlage unterwarf Preußen zwischen 1792 und 1798 die seinen fränkischen Provinzen benachbarten reichsritterschaftlichen Güter mit Gewalt seiner Landeshoheit.

    Abstract: In der Mitte des 18. Jahrhunderts setzte ein Transformationsprozess der laendlichen Gesellschaft ein, der kein geradliniger Vorgang war und nicht ohne Brueche verlief. Basierend auf disparatem Quellenmaterial zu den kursaechsischen Bauernunruhen von 1790 stellt die Studie einen Ausschnitt dieser Entwicklung dar: die Lebenswelt erzgebirgischer Rittergueter im Alltag und im Konflikt. Das Buch folgt dabei einem multiperspektivischen Zugang und kombiniert mikro-geschichtliche Rekonstruktionen mit einem historisch-anthropologischen Ansatz. Die Analyse thematisiert kultur-, wirtschafts- und sozialgeschichtliche sowie mentalitaets-, medien- und rechtsgeschichtliche Aspekte. Ein transdisziplinaerer Teil untersucht die waehrend der Aufstaende ablaufenden Prozesse und Mechanismen mithilfe der soziologischen Handlungstheorie.

    Abstract: Examine the changing structure of the family as America's population ages!As the United States' economy evolves and manufacturing jobs disappear, the prospect of each generation experiencing a standard of living that exceeds that of their parents' generation also disappears. Challenges of Aging on U.S. Families: Policy and Practice Implications explores this trend, presenting the latest original research on the changing roles of caregivers along with the economic and emotional effects on the family unit. Respected authorities discuss in detail long-term care and the standard of living of families, with a focus on the effects of changing family structures on families themselves and society at large. The coming boom in the population of the aging will impact families at several levels. Challenges of Aging on U.S. Families thoroughly examines the economic demands of aging on families, then focuses on different roles elderly family members are likely to play over the next several decades. Some of the issues explored include skipped generation parenting where children are raised in grandparent homes where neither parent is present, the impending economic impact of caregiving on families, the stress on families with fewer siblings to share the caregiving tasks, and the tendency for family members to live in different parts of the country and subsequently become unable to offer caregiver support. Detailed tables provide clarity of thought while comprehensive bibliographies offer further opportunity for study.Challenges of Aging on U.S. Families discusses: the economics of aging the implications of aging economics and emotional stress on the future of families the coming labor shortage of caregivers family-based intervention in residential long-term care shifting relationships between parents and their children caregivers self-esteem issues involving...

    Abstract: At the turn of the millennium, the United States has the largest number of immigrants in its history. As a consequence, immigration has emerged once again as a subject of scholarly inquiry and policy debate. This volume brings together the dominant conceptual and theoretical work on the "New Immigration" from such disparate disciplines as anthropology, demography, psychology, and sociology. Immigration today is a global and transnational phenomenon that affects every region of the world with unprecedented force. Although this volume is devoted to scholarly work on the new immigration in the U.S. setting, any of the broader conceptual issues covered here also apply to other post-industrial countries such as France, Germany, and Japan.

By "writing beyond race," noted cultural critic bell hooks models the constructive ways scholars, activists, and readers can challenge and change systems of domination.In the spirit of previous classics like Outlaw Culture and Reel to Real, this new collection of compelling essays interrogates contemporary cultural notions of race, gender, and class. From the films Precious and Crash to recent biographies of Malcolm X and Henrietta Lacks, hooks offers provocative insights into the way race is being talked about in this "post-racial" era.

    Keywords: Obama, Barack ; Schwarze ; Rhetorik ; Sprache ; Ethnizität ; Soziolinguistik ; USA
    Abstract: Barack Obama is widely considered one of the most powerful and charismatic speakers of our age. Without missing a beat, he often moves between Washington insider talk and culturally Black ways of speaking--as shown in a famous YouTube clip, where Obama declined the change offered to him by a Black cashier in a Washington, D.C. restaurant with the phrase, "Nah, we straight."In Articulate While Black, two renowned scholars of Black Language address language and racial politics in the U.S. through an insightful examination of President Barack Obama's language use--and America's response to it. In this eloquently written and powerfully argued book, H. Samy Alim and Geneva Smitherman provide new insights about President Obama and the relationship between language and race in contemporary society. Throughout, they analyze several racially loaded, cultural-linguistic controversies involving the President--from his use of Black Language and his "articulateness" to his "Race Speech," the so-called "fist-bump," and his relationship to Hip Hop Culture.Using their analysis of Barack Obama as a point of departure, Alim and Smitherman reveal how major debates about language, race, and educational inequality erupt into moments of racial crisis in America. In challenging American ideas about language, race, education, and power, they help take the national dialogue on race to the next level. In much the same way that Cornel West revealed nearly two decades ago that "race matters," Alim and Smitherman in this groundbreaking book show how deeply "language matters" to the national conversation on race--and in our daily lives.

    Abstract: Manhood and American Political Culture in the Cold War explores the meaning of anxiety as expressed through the political and cultural language of the early cold war era. Cuordileone shows how the preoccupation with the soft, malleable American character reflected not only anti-Communism but acute anxieties about manhood and sexuality. Reading major figures like Arthur Schlesinger Jr., Adlai Stevenson, Joseph McCarthy, Norman Mailer, JFK, and many lesser known public figures, Cuordileone reveals how the era's cult of toughness shaped the political dynamics of the time and inspired a reinvention of the liberal as a cold warrior.

IT is now a vital part of any government organisation, opening new policy windows and enabling a vast range of tasks to be carried out faster and more efficiently. But it has also introduced new problems and challenges. Four in-depth case studies demonstrate how information systems have become inextricably linked with the core tasks of governmental organisations. The key government departments examined are:* the Inland Revenue Service and Social Security Administration in the US* the Inland Revenue and Benefits Agency in the UK.

    Abstract: This collection of papers draws on insights from social anthropology to illuminate historical material, and presents a set of closely integrated studies on the inter-connections between feminism and medical, social and educational ideas in the nineteenth century.Throughout the book evidence from both the USA and UK shows that feminists had to operate in a restricting and complex social environment in which the concept of "the lady" and the ideal of the saintly mother defined the nineteenth-century woman's cultural and physical world.

    Keywords: Postkolonialismus ; Nationalbewusstsein ; Kulturerbe ; Südafrika ; Indien ; USA
    Abstract: The act of remaking one's history into a heritage, a conscientiously crafted narrative placed over the past, is a thriving industry in almost every postcolonial culture. This is surprising, given the tainted role of heritage in so much of colonialism's history. Yet the postcolonial state, like its European predecessor of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, deploys heritage institutions and instruments, museums, courts of law, and universities to empower itself with unity, longevity, exaltation of value, origin, and destiny. Bringing the eye of a philosopher, the pen of an essayist, and the experience of a public intellectual to the study of heritage, Daniel Herwitz reveals the febrile pitch at which heritage is staked. In this absorbing book, he travels to South Africa and unpacks its controversial and robust confrontations with the colonial and apartheid past. He visits India and reads in its modern art the gesture of a newly minted heritage idealizing the precolonial world as the source of Indian modernity. He traverses the United States and finds in its heritage of incessant invention, small town exceptionalism, and settler destiny a key to contemporary American media-driven politics. Showing how destabilizing, ambivalent, and potentially dangerous heritage is as a producer of contemporary social, aesthetic, and political realities, Herwitz captures its perfect embodiment of the struggle to seize culture and society at moments of profound social change.

    Keywords: Geschichte 1900-1940 ; Lyrik ; Volkskultur ; USA
    Abstract: Everyday Reading is the first full-length critical study of the culture surrounding American popular and commercial poetry in the twentieth century. Exploring poetry scrapbooks, old-time radio show recordings, advertising verse, corporate archives, and Hallmark greeting cards, among other unconventional sources, Mike Chasar casts American poetry as an everyday phenomenon consumed and created by a vast range of readers in different and complex ways. Capturing American poetry's truly diverse forms and appeal, Chasar shows how the genre helped set the stagebefore television, rock music, video games, and the Internetfor the dynamics of popular culture and mass media today. Chasar investigates twentieth-century American poetry's audience of millions and maps its range of aesthetics, cultural uses, relationship to canonical verse, and unexpected presence in many parts of modern life. Far from being a marginal art form read by a select group of educated individuals, poetry was part and parcel of American popular culture, spreading rapidly as the consumer economy expanded and companies such as Burma-Shave exploited the form's profit-making potential. Poetry also offered ordinary Americans a wealth of opportunities for creative, emotional, political, and intellectual expression, whether through scrapbooking, participation in radio programs, or poetry contests. By reenvisioning the uses of twentieth-century poetry, Chasar enables a richer understanding of the innovations of modernist and avant-garde poets and the American reading public's sophisticated powers of feeling and perception.

    Keywords: Tourismus ; USA
    Abstract: The United States continues to provide opportunities for travel and tourism to domestic and international travellers. This is the first book to offer students a comprehensive overview of both tourism and travel in this region, paying specific attention to the disciplines of Geography, Tourism Studies and, more generally, Social Science. Tourism in the USA explains the evolution of tourism paying attention to the forces that shaped the product that exists today. The focus of the book includes the manner in which tourism has played out in various contexts; the role of federal, state, and local policy is also examined in terms of the effects it has had on the US travel industry and on destinations. The various elements of tourism demand and supply are discussed and the influence that transportation (especially Americans' high personal mobility rates and love affair with the auto) has had on the sector highlighted. The economics of tourism are fleshed out before focusing more narrowly on both the urban and rural settings where tourism occurs. A look into the manner in which the spatial structure of cities is transformed through tourism is also offered. Additionally, a brief examination of future issues in American tourism is presented along with explanations concerning the ascendancy of tourism as an economic development tool in various areas. The book combines theory and practice as well as integrating a range of useful student orientated resources to aid understanding and spur further debate, which can be used for independent study or in class exercises. These include: 'Closer Look' case studies with reflective questions to help show theory in practice and encourage critical thinking about tourism developments in this region 'Discussion Questions' at the end of each chapter encourage stimulating debates 'Further Reading' sections direct the readers...
    Abstract: to related book and web resources so that they can learn more about the topics covered in each chapter. Written in an engaging style and supported with visual aids, this book will provide students globally with an in-depth and essential understanding of the complexities of tourism and travel in the USA.

    Keywords: Ehrenmord ; Deutschland ; Hochschulschrift
    Abstract: Fememorde haben seit der Ermordung Hatun Sürücüs 2005 in Berlin wiederholt Entsetzen ausgelöst. Weltweit rechnen die Vereinten Nationen mit 5000 Todes-opfern jährlich. Zu derartigen Exzessen kommt es auch in westlichen Ländern, jedoch weniger häufig als gedacht. Von 55 Opfern in acht Jahren spricht das BKA. Aber ist jeder dieser Morde ein Ehrenmord? Anna Caroline Cöster nähert sich den Hintergründen, um dem Phänomen schärfere Konturen zu verleihen. Auch die Bedrängnis möglicher Opfer bringt sie zur Sprache. Oft leben betrof-fene Frauen seit Jahren auf der Flucht; mit dem Verlassen ihrer Familien sehen sie sich schlagartig in Lebensgefahr und müssen sich zudem ein ihnen kulturell völlig fremdes Leben aufbauen. Ihre teils stark mit Gewalt durchsetzten trauma-tischen Erlebnisse können sie dabei fast niemandem anvertrauen. Das soziale wie religiöse Umfeld beeinflusst betroffene Familien hingegen sehr. Zu einem Ehrenmord kommt es mithin nicht aus heiterem Himmel. Der Kreis möglicher Mitwisser ist weit größer als bislang gedacht.

    Keywords: Stationäre Altenpflege ; Pflegepersonal ; Arbeitsbedingungen ; Hochschulschrift
    Abstract: Unter den Auswirkungen des demographischen und sozialen Wandels droht das Pflegesystem in Deutschland zu kollabieren. Zunehmender Personalnotstand erfordert es, den Altenpflegeberuf attraktiver, auf lange Sicht bewaeltigbar und durch Beruecksichtigung der arbeitsbezogenen Beduerfnisse und Erwartungen der Pflegenden insgesamt zufriedenstellender zu gestalten. Dabei erlangen, wie die Befunde dieser Fallstudie verdeutlichen, die von Forschung und Praxis bislang kaum beachteten Erfolgskriterien und -einschaetzungen der Pflegekraefte herausragende Bedeutung. Ausgehend von einer umfassenden Analyse der Arbeitsbedingungen in der stationaeren Altenpflege zeigt der Autor wissenschaftlich fundiert und zugleich handlungsrelevant Wege zur nachhaltigen Foerderung des Erfolgserlebens, der Arbeitszufriedenheit und der beruflichen Bindung der Pflegekraefte auf.

    Keywords: Videoüberwachung ; Öffentlicher Raum ; Rechtsvergleich ; Deutschland ; USA
    Abstract: Hauptbeschreibung Die Autorin befasst sich mit zur Kriminalprävention eingesetzten polizeilichen Videoüberwachungen an öffentlich zugänglichen Orten. Sie vergleicht die praktische Anwendung und rechtliche Problematik dieser zunehmend eingesetzten Maßnahme in Deutschland und in den USA. Ziel dabei ist es, Parallelen und Unterschiede aufzuzeigen und durch den Rechtsvergleich neue Aspekte für die rechtliche Beurteilung solcher Videoüberwachungen in Deutschland, auf der der Schwerpunkt der Untersuchung liegt, zu gewinnen. Beleuchtet werden zunächst u. a. die Entwicklung der Videoüberwachung im öffentlichen Raum in Deutschland und in den USA sowie Gründe für deren zunehmende Anwendung. Die Erörterung der rechtlichen Problematik hat die Darstellung des verfassungsrechtlichen Privatsphären- und Persönlichkeitsschutzes in Deutschland und in den USA zum Ausgangspunkt. Eingehend erläutert und verglichen werden die unterschiedlichen Ansätze zur verfassungsrechtlichen Bewertung von Videoüberwachungen in den beiden Ländern, und es werden die ersten Ansätze einer Normierung in den USA vorgestellt. Die durch die einzelnen deutschen Bundesländer geschaffenen Ermächtigungsnormen werden genauer betrachtet und auf ihre Verfassungsmäßigkeit hin untersucht. Hier wird zum einen der Frage der Gesetzgebungskompetenz betreffend der Videoüberwachung als doppelfunktionaler Polizeimaßnahme (insbesondere dem umstrittenen Problem der Gesetzgebungskompetenz im Rahmen der Strafverfolgungsvorsorge) nachgegangen. Zum anderen wird analysiert, welche Voraussetzungen sich aus dem Verhältnismäßigkeitsprinzip für die Regelung von Videoüberwachungen ergeben (wie die Begrenzung auf Kriminalitätsschwerpunkte, das Aufstellen von Hinweisschildern) und welche organisations- und verfahrensrechtlichen Schutzvorschriften (wie Dokumentations-, Benachrichtigungs-, Löschungspflichten oder...

    Abstract: Hauptbeschreibung Über die Verfahrensweise und die Methoden der Konfliktlösung frühneuzeitlicher Untergerichte ist noch recht wenig bekannt. Wie die praktische Rechtspflege eines Universitätsgerichts aussah, untersucht die Autorin an Hand von Gerichtsakten der Freiburger Universität aus dem 16. Jahrhundert. Neben der Gerichtsorganisation und der Kompetenzaufteilung zwischen den verschiedenen Gremien behandelt Bettina Bubach auf der Basis einer umfangreichen Quellenauswertung alle Bereiche der universitären Rechtspraxis: Zum einen die Straf- und Disziplinargewalt, die Rektor und Senat ausübten, zum anderen die Entscheidung privater Streitigkeiten durch das Consistorium, wobei Verfahrensablauf und Streitgegenstände untersucht werden. Insgesamt stellt die Verfasserin die universitäre Rechtspflege in den Kontext der frühneuzeitlichen Untergerichtsbarkeit und deren Formen der Konfliktbeilegung. Sie zeigt den umwälzenden Vorgang der Rezeption nicht aus Sicht der höchsten Reichsgerichte, sondern aus Perspektive eines Untergerichts. Mit der Berücksichtigung von zivil- und strafrechtlichen Quellen kommt sie einem schon lange erhobenen Forschungsdesiderat nach und kann so - bislang oft nur vermutete - Verknüpfungen zwischen den Rechtsgebieten aufdecken. Diese belegen die wichtige Rolle, die gütliche Einigungen im komplexen System der damaligen Konfliktlösungsmechanismen spielten.   Inhaltsverzeichnis Inhaltsübersicht: Einführung: Forschungsziel und Methode - Grundlagen - 1.

    Abstract: At a time when cities appear to be fragmenting mosaics of ethnic enclaves, it is reassuring to know there are still stable multicultural neighborhoods. Beyond Segregation offers a tour of some of America's best known multiethnic neighborhoods: Uptown in Chicago, Jackson Heights (Queens), and San Antonio-Fruitvale in Oakland. Readers will learn the history of the neighborhoods and develop an understanding of the people that reside in them, the reasons they stay, and the work it takes to maintain each neighborhood as an affordable, integrated place to live.

    Abstract: This book is about the causes and consequences of economic inequality in the advanced market economies of today. It is common that in market systems people choose their own individual economic destinies, but of course the choices people make are importantly determined by the alternatives available to them: unequal opportunity is the critical determinant of economic disparities. This begs the question; from where do the vast inequalities of opportunity arise? This book theorizes that power and social class are the real crux of economic inequality. Most of mainstream economics studiously eschews questions involving social power, preferring to focus instead on "individual choice subject to constraint" in contexts of "well-functioning markets". Yet both "extra-market" power structures and power structures arising from within the market system itself are unavoidably characteristic of real-world market-based economies. The normal working of labor and financial markets engenders an inherent wealth-favoring bias in the distribution of opportunities for occupational choice. But that bias is greatly compounded by the economic, social, political and cultural power structures that constitute the class system. For those power structures work to distribute economic benefit to class elites, and are in turn undergirded by the disparities of wealth they thus help engender. Inequality and Power offers an economic analysis of the power structures constituting that class system: employers' power over employees; the power of certain businesses over others; professionals' power over their clients and other employees; cultural power in the media and education systems; and political power in "democratic" government. Schutz argues that a "class analysis" of the trend of increasing economic inequality today is superior to the mainstream economic analysis of that trend.
    Abstract: After considering what is wrong with power-based inequality in term of criteria of distributive justice and economic functionality, the book concludes with an outline of various possible correctives. This book should be of interest to students and researchers in economics, sociology, political science and philosophy, as well as anyone interested in the theories of social class.

    Abstract: Parts one and two of this volume present the theoretical lenses used to study the social contexts of education. These include long-established foundations disciplines such as sociology of education and philosophy of education as well as newer theoretical perspectives such as critical race theory, feminist educational theory, and cultural studies in education. Parts three, four, and five demonstrate how these theoretical lenses are used to examine such phenomena as globalization, media, popular culture, technology, youth culture, and schooling. This groundbreaking volume helps readers understand the history, evolution, and significance of this wide-ranging, often misunderstood, and increasingly important field of study. This book is appropriate as a reference volume not only for scholars in the social foundations of education but also for scholars interested in the cultural contexts of teaching and learning (formal and informal). It is also appropriate as a textbook for graduate-level courses in Social Foundations of Education, School and Society, Educational Policy Studies, Cultural Studies in Education, and Curriculum and Instruction.

    Abstract: At mid-century, Americans increasingly fell in love with characters like Holden Caulfield in Catcher in the Rye and Marlon Brando's Johnny in The Wild One, musicians like Elvis Presley and Bob Dylan, and activists like the members of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee. These emotions enabled some middle-class whites to cut free of their own histories and identify with those who, while lacking economic, political, or social privilege, seemed to possess instead vital cultural resources and a depth of feeling not found in "grey flannel" America. In this wide-ranging and vivid

But these group labels and their meanings have changed over time.

    Abstract: In the global convulsions in the aftermath of World War II, one dominant world racial order broke apart and a new one emerged. This story portrays the postwar racial break as a transition from white supremacist modernity to a formally antiracist liberal capitalist modernity in which racial violence works normatively by policing representations of difference.

    Abstract: In her evocative ethnographic study, Body Language, Kimberly Lau traces the multiple ways in which the success of an innovative fitness program illuminates what identity means to its Black female clientele and how their group interaction provides a new perspective on feminist theories of identity politics-especially regarding the significance of identity to political activism and social change. Sisters in Shape, Inc., Fitness Consultants (SIS), a Philadelphia company, promotes balance in physical, mental, and spiritual health. Its program goes beyond workouts, as it educates and motivates women to make health and fitness a priority. Discussing the obstacles at home and the importance of the group's solidarity to their ability to stay focused on their goals, the women speak to the ways in which their commitment to reshaping their bodies is a commitment to an alternative future. Body Language shows how the group's explorations of black women's identity open new possibilities for identity-based claims to recognition, justice, and social change.

    Keywords: Gerichtsberichterstattung ; Medien ; Rassismus ; USA
    Abstract: Racial Spectacles: Explorations in Media, Race, and Justice examines the crucial role the media has played in circulating and shaping national dialogues about race through representations of crime and racialized violence. Jonathan Markovitz argues that mass media "racial spectacles" often work to shore up racist stereotypes, but that they also provide opportunities to challenge prevalent conceptions of race, and can be seized upon as vehicles for social protest. This book explores a series of mass media spectacles revolving around the news, prime-time television, Hollywood cinema, and the internet that have either relied upon, reconfigured, or helped to construct collective memories of race, crime, and (in)justice. The case studies explored include the Scottsboro interracial rape case of the 1930s, the Kobe Bryant rape case, the Los Angeles Police Department's "Rampart scandal," the Abu Ghraib photographs, and a series of racist incidents at the University of California.  This book will prove to be important not only for courses on race and media, but also for any reader interested in issues of the media's role in social justice.

    Abstract: This title examines the many legal efforts to curb immigration and to define who is and is not an American. It looks at immigration from the perspective of the migrant - farmers and industrial workers, mechanics and domestics, highly trained professionals and small-business owners - who willingly upped sticks for the promise of a better life. What is the relationship between race and ethnicity in the life of these groups and in the formation of American society?

    Abstract: Defending Their Own in the Cold: The Cultural Turns of U.S. Puerto Ricans explores U.S. Puerto Rican culture in past and recent contexts. The book presents East Coast, Midwest, and Chicago cultural production while exploring Puerto Rican musical, film, artistic, and literary performance. Working within the theoretical frame of cultural, postcolonial, and diasporic studies, Marc Zimmerman relates the experience of Puerto Ricans to that of Chicanos and Cuban Americans, showing how even supposedly mainstream U.S. Puerto Ricans participate in a performative culture that embodies elements of possible cultural "Ricanstruction."_x000B_To illustrate how Puerto Ricans have survived and created new identities and relations out of their circumstances, Zimmerman looks at the cultural examples of Latino entertainment stars such as Jennifer Lopez and Benicio del Toro, visual artists Juan Sanchez, Ramón Flores, and Elizam Escobar, as well as Nuyorican dancer turned Midwest poet Carmen Pursifull.

    Abstract: A leading African American intellectual of the early twentieth century, Eugene Kinckle Jones was instrumental in professionalizing black social work in America. In his role as executive secretary of the National Urban League, Jones worked closely with social reformers who advocated on behalf of African Americans and against racial discrimination in the United States._x000B_Drawing on rich interviews with Jones's colleagues and associates, as well as recently opened family and Urban League papers, Felix L. Armfield freshly examines the growth of African American communities and the new roles played by social workers. This book blends the biography of a significant black leader with an in-depth discussion of the roles of black institutions and organizations to study the evolution of African American life immediately before the civil rights era.
