Feminisms in Movement
Feminist movements from the Americas provide some of the most innovative, visible, and all-encompassing forms of organizing and resistance. With their diverse backgrounds, these movements address sexism, sexualized violence, misogyny, racism, homo- and transphobia, coloniality, extractivism, climate crisis, and neoliberal capitalist exploitation as well as the interrelations of these systems. Fighting interlocking axes of oppression, feminists from the Americas represent, practice, and theorize a truly »intersectional« politics. Feminisms in Movement: Theories and Practices from the Americas brings together a wide variety of perspectives and formats, spanning from the realms of arts and activism to academia. Black and decolonial feminist voices and queer/cuir perspectives, ecofeminist approaches and indigenous women's mobilizations inspire future feminist practices and inform social and cohabitation projects. With contributions from Rita Laura Segato, Mara Viveros Vigoya, Yuderkys Espinosa-Miñoso, and interviews with Anielle Franco (Brazilian activist and minister) and with the Chilean feminist collective LASTESIS.
Environments of Inequality: Crises, Conflicts, Comparisons
Multiple environmental crises and persistent patterns of intersecting inequalities are major global concerns. This edited volume contributes to a better understanding of environments of inequality by examining their various formations and expressions, from the colonial period to the present, with a strong (but not exclusive) focus on the Americas. The nine case studies especially reflect on the interrelationship between social inequality and the natural environment. The authors address crises, conflicts, and comparisons of inequalities from various disciplinary and regional perspectives. The volume has three thematic sections: first, conflicts and contests over resources and territory; second, crises of environmental politics; and third, constructions of inequality: discourses of disruption. Drawing on ongoing innovative research projects, the chapters in this volume discuss highly relevant issues and show that intersectionality is key to understanding environmental inequalities.
De-Centering History Education
Global historical approaches plead for the overcoming of national historical traditions. This goes hand in hand with the demand to consciously reflect the long suppressed category of space in historical research. While there are signs of amending within the scientific landscape in this respect, a national narrative continues to dominate in history education. The demand for de-centering historical learning, provides ideas on how to promote globally networked thinking in the classroom with a view at history education in Germany.
The Routledge Handbook to the Culture and Media of the Americas
Exploring the culture and media of the Americas, this handbook places particular emphasis on collective and intertwined experiences and focuses on the transnational or hemispheric dimensions of cultural flows and geocultural imaginaries that shape the literature, arts, media and other cultural expressions in the Americas. The Routledge Handbook to the Culture and Media of the Americas charts the pervasive, asymmetrical flows of cultural products and capital and their importance in the development of the Americas. The volume offers a comprehensive understanding of how inter-American communication is constituted, framed and structured, and covers the artistic and political dimensions that have...
Globalgeschichtliche Perspektiven und Globales Lernen im Geschichtsunterricht
Seit einigen Jahren ist Globales Lernen als pädagogische Antwort auf die Globalisierung ein vielzitiertes Konzept. Weltumspannende Transfers und Verflechtungen hat es bereits in früheren Zeiten gegeben. Diese zu entdecken und zu hinterfragen, kann Schülerinnen und Schülern helfen, die Ausprägungen globaler Zusammenhänge in der Gegenwart besser einzuordnen. Doch wie lassen sich globalgeschichtliche Perspektiven für den Geschichtsunterricht konkret greifbar machen?
The Routledge Handbook to the Political Economy and Governance of the Americas
This handbook explores the political economy and governance of the Americas, placing particular emphasis on collective and intertwined experiences. Forty-six chapters cover a range of Inter-American key concepts and dynamics. The flow of peoples, goods, resources, knowledge and finances have on the one hand promoted interdependence and integration that cut across borders and link the countries of North and South America (including the Caribbean) together. On the other hand, they have contributed to profound asymmetries between different places. The nature of this transversally related and multiply interconnected hemispheric region can only be captured through a transnational, multidisciplina...
The Routledge Handbook to the History and Society of the Americas
The colonial heritage and its renewed aftermaths – expressed in the inter-American experiences of slavery, indigeneity, dependence, and freedom movements, to mention only a few aspects – form a common ground of experience in the Western Hemisphere. The flow of peoples, goods, knowledge and finances have promoted interdependence and integration that cut across borders and link the countries of North and South America together. The nature of this transversally related and multiply interconnected region can only be captured through a transnational, multidisciplinary, and comprehensive approach. The Routledge Handbook to the History and Society of the Americas explores the history and societ...
Geschichtsvermittlung postkolonial
Postkoloniale Theorie polarisiert: Den einen gilt sie als »Supertheorie« für das Zeitalter der Globalisierung, anderen dagegen als elitärer Diskurs, der zu konfliktfördernder Identitätspolitik führt. Doch welche Rolle kann sie für die geschichtsdidaktische Theorie und den Geschichtsunterricht spielen? Philipp Bernhard prüft diese Frage anhand einer systematischen geschichtsdidaktischen Analyse »postkolonialer« Lehr-Lernmaterialien. Er leitet daraus vier Grundüberlegungen (»Claims«) für eine Umsetzung postkolonialer Theorieansätze in der Geschichtsvermittlung ab. Dabei zeigt sich: Die Geschichtsdidaktik muss die Postkoloniale Theorie kritisch reflektieren, kann aber auf deren Impulse für die Weiterentwicklung von Theorie und (Unterrichts-)Praxis nicht verzichten.
Koloniale Prägungen in Gesellschaft und Sprache
Die faecheruebergreifende Themenmappe regt dazu an, sich aus einer postkolonialen Perspektive mit aktuellen gesellschaftlichen Debatten auseinanderzusetzen. So wird anhand unterschiedlicher Beispiele aufgezeigt, wie sich durch koloniale Beziehungen nachhaltige Strukturen gebildet und verfestigt haben, die auch in unserer heutigen Gesellschaft praesent sind und nicht nur im globalen Handel wirken, sondern auch in Sprache, Bildern sowie mentalen Vorstellungen von 'Anderen' fortbestehen. Die Unterrichtsvorschlaege und Materialien sind im Geschichts-, Deutsch-, Religions-, Politik- und Wirtschaftsunterricht einsetzbar.
