Presents multifaceted aspects of Asian Muslim womens lives and agencies. This book resists the homogenization of Muslim women by detailing the diversity in their lives and by challenging the dominant paradigm of Arabized Islam as the sole interpreter of the faith. Though much has been written on the Middle East, there is a huge gap in research on Asia, which has two-thirds of the worlds Muslim population. These essays reveal that the lives of Muslim women are impacted not only by Islam but also by local politics, class, religion, and ethnicity. Through ethnographic research and other methodologies, the contributors describe how economic globalization, construction of sexualities, and diasporic expectations shape womens lives. The book focuses on womens negotiations and resistances to global, national, and local patriarchies in an attempt to empower themselves. This books greatest strength is the diversity of its scope, both geographically and thematically, without reducing Muslim women to particular roles and/or identities.

Visions of Development presents first-hand stories of groups and movements from many different religious and spiritual traditions that are working with impoverished communities in Africa, Asia and Latin America. It provides unique insights into how people's beliefs and spirituality can help to inform not only what they perceive 'development' to be but also how they go about achieving it. Through real-life examples of courageous and innovative work, the stories challenge much of the theory and practice of mainstream development agencies while also showing how religious inspiration can be a force for radical and positive change.
This book advances knowledge about the implementation of peace and non-violence strategies in education that counter violence. Addressing both hidden and direct violence, it examines the harm to wellbeing and learning through a unique exploration of the role of teachers, and confronts the roots of violence in educational settings. Presenting and critiquing a range of pedagogical tools, case examples, and research, it examines how various methods can be used for identifying and proactively responding to conflicts such as injustice, discrimination, and prejudice, among others. Contributors present case studies from a range of global contexts and offer cutting-edge research on the applications of these resources, and how they contextualize peace education. An essential read for educators, teacher educators and peace scholars, it crucially offers pathways for confronting and healing from violence in both formal and informal sites of education.
Buku Interseksi Gender: Perspektif Multidimesional Terhadap Diri, Tubuh, dan Seksualitas dalam Kajian Sastra Perspektif dalam kajian gendertidaklah bersifat tunggal. Ada dinamika yang terus bergerak secara teoritis dalam merespon perkembangan teori-teori feminisme yang mengalami kemajuan pesat sejak tahun 1970-an. Memandang bahwa perempuan secara universal memiliki nasib yang homogen, seperti yang dijelaskan oleh Gerakan Feminisme Gelombang Kedua dianggap oleh para feminis, yang kebanyakan bukan feminis kulit putih, terlalu mengeneralisasi persoalan perempuan (Mohanty, 1984; Crenshaw, 1992; Collins, 1989). Ketiganya sepakat bahwa perempuan memiliki nasib yang tidak sama dalam batas-batas sejarah, sosial, politik maupun geografis. Perspektif gender dengan fokus pada intersectionality menjadi cara untuk mengkonseptulisasikan hubungan antara sistem-sistem opresi yang membangun identitas kita yang bersifat multipel dan juga lokasi sosial kita yang berada di dalam hierarki kekuasaan. Idenfitas gender tidak muncul begitu saja tetapi berada di dalam sebuah sistem kekuasaan yang di dalamnya ada legitimasi dan privilese dari kelompok-kelompok yang menjadi kultur dominan.
