Despite the superdiversity of an increasingly multicultural and multilingual world, policy and practice in education continues to deal with issues of inclusion and diversity in language education in rather tangential and peripheral ways. To address critical issues in multicultural and multilingual education, with implications for curriculum, teacher preparation and pedagogical practice, this volume brings together international perspectives on research, policy and pedagogical practice that help the global community gain new insights into ground-breaking work that addresses current questions, challenges and complexities in an education world of superdiversity.
This book focuses on the human and societal aspects of sustainable development. Three major perspectives are considered: governance and its influence on sustainable development; urban environments and their broader human and environmental impacts; and disaster management. Each of these elements is critical in considering the current and prospective development of societies towards a sustainable future in which human security is guaranteed. This 2-volume set discusses a wide range of topics concerning sustainability and human security in Asia, particularly South East Asia. The individual chapters have been contributed by authors from various fields, and due to the breadth of the material are separated into two thematic volumes.The set offers a valuable resource for professionals and researchers in the urban planning industry, postgraduates, policymakers, government officials and natural resources managers. In addition, it can be used in courses on Environmental Engineering, Agriculture and Forestry, Public Policy and Earth Science.
This book shares the experiences of the Monash University and La Trobe University libraries in Melbourne, Australia, regarding the paths taken to transform and reposition these libraries within their institutions. The book showcases the respective frameworks used to enhance library skill development programs and addresses central topics such as partnerships, pedagogy, curriculum, emerging skill agendas and student success. It offers a theoretical and practical approach to overcoming persistent challenges and discusses several pertinent areas, e.g., establishing library-faculty partnerships, explicitly and coherently developing students’ research skills with discipline-specific content and transforming perceptions of academic libraries’ educative role. The book highlights the current issue of enhancing students’ research skills, which is forcing many academic libraries to reassess their established practices and adopt pedagogical approaches that will more readily resonate with faculty. Chapters 3 and 19 are available open access under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License via link.springer.com.

This book reevaluates the art of Gerhard Richter (b. 1932) in relation to his efforts to achieve belonging in the face of West Germany’s increasing individualism between the 1960s and the 1990s. Richter fled East Germany in 1961 to escape the constraints of socialist collectivism. His varied and extensive output in the West attests to his greater freedom under capitalism, but also to his struggles with belonging in a highly individualised society, a problem he was far from alone in facing. The dynamic of increasing individualism has been closely examined by sociologists, but has yet to be employed as a framework for understanding broader trends in recent German art history. Rather than critique this development from a socialist perspective or experiment with new communal structures like a number of his colleagues, Richter sought and found security in traditional modes of bourgeois collectivity, like the family, religion, painting and the democratic capitalist state. The book will be of interest to scholars working in art history as well as German history, culture and politics.

"Hari pertama Dewi masuk kerja sebagai sekretaris di Helman Communications tak berjalan semulus yang ia sangka. Di luar dugaan, ia dipelonco habis-habisan oleh Wisnu, Presdir Helman Comm, bosnya sendiri, yang kebetulan usianya hanya terpaut beberapa tahun darinya. Tidak terima, Dewi marah dan mengamuk. Begitu marahnya, ia sampai mengusir Wisnu dari kantornya sendiri. Akibatnya, Wisnu yang merasa bersalah sampai merasa perlu meminta maaf dengan cara spetakuler. Namun awal yang agak aneh itu justru membawa hubungan mereka ke titik yang tak pernah mereka sangka sebelumnya. Mereka tak hanya bertemu di kantor sebagai bos dan sekretaris, tapi juga menjelma menjadi sahabat dekat yang sangat kompak dalam segala hal, bak sepasang sobat di sekolah. Gosip, tuduhan, dan rumor pun merebak mengenai status hubungan keduanya. Akankah mereka menyatu menjadi pasangan sungguhan? Atau tetap saja TTM-an seperti sekarang? Dan apakah mereka tetap akan bilang “Love sucks!” meskipun mereka tahu bahwa mereka perfect for each other?"
