A Feminist Approach to Sensitive Research Designing the Clay Embodiment Research Method

This book explores the development and implementation of the Clay Embodiment Research Method (CERM) with one of the most stigmatized oppressed and marginalized groups of women in Nepal: sex-trafficked women. It argues for the use of a feminist approach to such research given the prevailing patriarchal norms cultural sensitivity of reproductive health stigmatization of sex trafficking and low literacy of the women involved. Beginning with an exploration of the author’s relationship with Nepal and the women who guide the study and the realization that a more accessible research approach was needed than the techniques otherwise commonly used it discusses the use of clay and photography as ideal entry points to engaging with the women in the research and creating this ethical methodology for self-empowerment. Not only does the volume highlight extraordinary insights offered by the women involved in this study through the application of CERM but also the recognition that its use requires expertise that can deal with the potential elicitation of trauma. The book makes the case for further study on improving the method’s use in research education and therapy involving low-literate stigmatized oppressed and marginalized populations particularly where cultural sensitivity is an important consideration. A Feminist Approach to Sensitive Research is suitable for students scholars and researchers in Gender Studies Sociology Health Studies Anthropology and Asian Studies. | A Feminist Approach to Sensitive Research Designing the Clay Embodiment Research Method

William James's Hidden Religious Imagination A Universe of Relations

This book offers a radical new reading of William James’s work on the idea of ‘religion. ’ Moving beyond previous psychological and philosophical interpretations it uncovers a dynamic imaginative and critical use of the category of religion. This work argues that we can only fully understand James’s work on religion by returning to the ground of his metaphysics of relations and by incorporating literary and historical themes. Author Jeremy Carette develops original perspectives on the influence of James’s father and Calvinism on the place of the body and sex in James on the significance of George Eliot’s novels and Herbert Spencer’s ‘unknown ’ revealing a social and political discourse of civil religion and republicanism and a poetic imagination at the heart of James understanding of religion. These diverse themes are brought together through a post-structural sensitivity and a recovery of the importance of the French philosopher Charles Renouvier to James’s work. This study pushes new boundaries in Jamesian scholarship by reading James with pluralism and from the French tradition. It will be a benchmark text in the reshaping of James and the nineteenth-century foundations of the modern study of ‘religion. ’ | William James's Hidden Religious Imagination A Universe of Relations

Limnology Climatology and Paleoclimatology of the East African Lakes

The large lakes of the East African Rift Valley are among the oldest on Earth and are vital resources for the people of their basins. They are unique among the large lakes of the world in terms of their sensitivity to climatic change rich and diverse populations of endemic species circulation dynamics and water-column chemistry and long continuous records of past climatic change. A comprehensive study of the large African lakes is long overdue. The scientific justification for such an effort is noted in the previous paragraph and is illustrated in great detail in this volume.

Volume 20: The Auction Catalogue of Kierkegaard's Library

This volume is a revised and improved edition of the auction catalogue of Kierkegaard’s private library. The catalogue has long served as one of the most valuable tools in Kierkegaard studies and has been actively used by commentators translators and researchers for tracing the various sources of Kierkegaard’s thought. With the catalogue in hand one can determine with some degree of probability what books he read and what editions he used for his information about specific authors. The present volume represents the fourth printing of the catalogue and it differs from its predecessors in many respects. The previous editions contained incomplete erroneous and inconsistent bibliographical information about the works in the catalogue. The primary goal of the present edition was to obtain all of the books and check their title pages for the precise bibliographical information. The result is an accurate and reliable edition of the catalogue that conforms to the needs of Kierkegaard studies in the digital age. | Volume 20: The Auction Catalogue of Kierkegaard's Library

Professional Issues in Work with Babies and Toddlers

Early childhood provision for babies and toddlers is in a critical phase. While governments are pushing for fast-paced expansion mainly to support the return of mothers to the labour market early childhood experts are deeply concerned about the quality of provision on offer for children up to age three. Research has consistently demonstrated that well-qualified educators are a crucial component towards ensuring a climate of sensitivity and responsiveness to individual children – and thus a central ingredient of high quality provision. However national policy choices regarding required professional education/training and required resources for supporting the well-being and learning opportunities of very young children are highly variable. The chapters in this book approach the topic of professional work with very young children in diverse ways employing varying theoretical frameworks research foci and research methodologies. They illustrate starkly divergent policy contexts in this case predominantly European with research located in Belgium France Finland Italy Sweden and the UK but also in South Africa and the USA. This book will be of interest to those conducting research into provision for infants and toddlers both at the micro-level of relationships and settings and at the macro-level of policy paradigms. Potential readers also include practitioners and prospective managers and leaders of early childhood centres as well as those offering initial and postgraduate early years teacher education and continuing professional development courses.

Multinational enterprises continue to rely heavily upon expatriates as part of their global workforce. These expatriates whose exact employment contract may take different forms are assigned to help them develop global skills as well as to foster knowledge transfer. But managing this expatriate workforce is extremely complex requiring a questioning of assumptions and sensitivity to new social and cultural dynamics. This book sets out to examine the problem of expatriate management through an I/O Psychology lens. Each chapter draws upon the expertise of scholars from around the world to provide insights into the latest research findings and remaining needs pertaining to a wide variety of issues. The contributors of this book review the current state of the research of the issue at hand and then make recommendations for where the new frontiers of the research should be in the coming decades. This volume covers four sets of issues pertaining to expatriate management and global mobility in depth. First the different decision points organizations must make about assigning someone to an overseas location for some period of time; second the different categories of employees in the multinational corporation and their unique characteristics and challenges; third the various issues and implications of managing a globally mobile workforce; and fourth the unique contexts of global mobility. Overarching future research themes are identified that lay out the research agenda for the coming decades. By bringing together key research this book aims to help I/O psychologists understand explore and identify new ways of contributing to the understanding of the issues involved in managing an expatriate workforce. Incorporating state-of-the art I/O psychology research in this unique context bears the promise of yielding important new paradigms and practices.
