Digital Expressions of the Self(ie)
The book examines the social and cultural role of selfies in India. It looks at how the selfie, unlike the photograph, which was a gesture towards an external reality, remains intimately self-referential, yet reconfigures social ordering, identity formation, agency, and spaces in curious ways. This volume approaches questions about the construction and performance of the self through the digital selfie and uses this situated, contextualized, and culturally specific phenomenon as a site to explore the themes of self-making, place-making, gender, subjectivity, and power. Highlighting the specific contexts of production, the authors examine the array of self-expressive capabilities realized in a multitude of uses of the selfie that simultaneously reconfigure the self, the space, and the world. An important study of visual social media culture, the volume will be useful for interpreting everyday media experiences and will be of interest to students and researchers of image studies, visual studies, photography studies, visual culture, media studies, culture studies, cultural anthropology, digital humanities, popular culture, sociology of technology, and South Asian studies.
Sowing the Seeds of Character
A rabbi and educator shows how moral education can be crafted to address each of the three main branches of the moral life: philosophy, civics, and ethics. Sowing the Seeds of Character: The Moral Education of Adolescents in Public and Private Schools is a book for all teachers and parents. It rests on the premise that the moral education of students falls within the purview of schools, whether they assume responsibility for it or not. Regardless of the place of moral education in the formal curriculum, all teachers serve as moral exemplars to their students, for good or for ill. Teachers of science, social studies, history, and literature courses cannot help but inculcate moral sensibility and attitudes in their students by the ways in which they lead them to grapple with—or glide over—the moral implications of what they teach. Judd Kruger Levingston draws many lessons and examples from his extensive research and teaching experience in Muslim, Jewish, Roman Catholic, public, Quaker, and Chinese schools. He argues that teachers should become proficient in directing role-playing simulations of moral decision-making as morally complex topics arise within the standard curriculum.

Beyond Consumption
This book analyses India’s middle class by recognising the diversity within the class, the people, their practices, and the production of spaces. It explores the economic and social lives of the new middle class, expanding the areas of inquiry beyond consumption in post-liberalisation India and its intersectionalities with gender, caste, religion, migration, and other socioeconomic markers in various cities across the country. The book interrogates the meanings and perceptions of social mobility, growth, consumerism, technology, social identity, and development and examines how they can be emancipatory or subjugating in different contexts. It engages with the new entrants in the middle cla...

Tarikh Al Ikhwan Al Muslimun 1
pa yang Anda pikirkan tatkala membaca sebuah kitab tarikh (sejarah)? Urutan peristiwa, kronologi kejadian, nama-nama pelaku? Terlalu sederhana pikiran seperti itu. Tarikh Al-Ikhwan Al-Muslimun bukanlah tarikh sebuah kelompok pemikiran atau madzhab tertentu dalam Islam, bukan pula tarikh perjalanan seorang individu. Ia adalah tarikh umat yang pernah dimunculkan Allah Swt. di pentas dunia dalam salah satu episode sejarah yang panjang. Ia adalah tarikh aqidah, tarikh dakwah dan jihad di jalan Allah, serta tarikh perjuangan mengembalikan mutiara nilai agama yang sempat hilang dari tubuh umat. Membaca serial Tarikh Al-Ikhwan Al-Muslimun yang lahir di dasawarsa ketiga awal abad ke-20 berarti menap...
