The Kalamari Union: Middle Class in East and West

The Kalamari Union: Middle Class in East and West

First published in 1998 this volume asks: are new social classes in the making in eastern Europe? Are class issues withering away? How do different classes organize their lives what kind of strategies do they adopt in East and West. Markku Kivinen brings Eastern Europe into the class debate. Recent sociological discussions have touched upon questions of class in Eastern Europe only very provisionally. On the other hand old analyses of social stratification under conditions of 'actually existed socialism' are no longer relevant in the current situation. This book analyses processes of class relations in Eastern Europe from new theoretical vantage-points using up-to-date empirical data. Under socialism power was said to be vested in the working class. However there was a constant tension between the 'holy proletariat' and the real life of the working class. Today all political forces in Eastern Europe; leftist and liberal alike are hankering for the middle class. This book explores the real processes in both East and West. This leads to more concrete political and even moral issues. The new 'sacred middle class' is challenged. The contributors adopt several conceptual approaches and perspectives which enter into a fruitful exchange in this book. | The Kalamari Union: Middle Class in East and West

Reconceptualizing the Writing Practices of Multilingual Youth Towards a Symbiotic Approach to In- and Out-of-School Writing

Reconceptualizing the Writing Practices of Multilingual Youth Towards a Symbiotic Approach to In- and Out-of-School Writing

Focusing on adolescent multilingual writing this text problematizes the traditional boundaries between academic writing in school contexts and self-initiated writing outside of the formal learning environment. By reconceptualizing the nature of adolescent multilingual writing the author establishes it as an interdisciplinary genre and a key area of inquiry for research and pedagogy. Organized into six chapters Reconceptualizing the Writing Practices of Multilingual Youth provides an in-depth examination of the writing practices of multilingual youth from sociocultural and social practice perspectives. Drawing on first-hand research conducted with young people the text questions the traditional dichotomy between academic writing and non-formal equivalents and proposes a symbiotic approach to exploring and cultivating the connections between in- and out-of-school literate lives. By highlighting a bidirectional relationship between formal and informal writing the text advocates for writing instruction that helps adolescents use writing for entertainment identity construction creative expression personal well-being and civic engagement as well as helps them learn to navigate future literacies that we cannot imagine or predict now. This much-needed text will provide researchers and graduate students with a principled overview and synthesis of adolescent multilingual writing research that is significant yet underexplored in applied linguistics TESOL and literacy studies. | Reconceptualizing the Writing Practices of Multilingual Youth Towards a Symbiotic Approach to In- and Out-of-School Writing
