Breaking the Social Media Prism
A revealing look at how user behavior is powering deep social divisions online—and how we might yet defeat political tribalism on social media In an era of increasing social isolation, platforms like Facebook and Twitter are among the most important tools we have to understand each other. We use social media as a mirror to decipher our place in society but, as Chris Bail explains, it functions more like a prism that distorts our identities, empowers status-seeking extremists, and renders moderates all but invisible. Breaking the Social Media Prism challenges common myths about echo chambers, foreign misinformation campaigns, and radicalizing algorithms, revealing that the solution to polit...

Victorian Prism
From the moment it opened on the first of May in the Crystal Palace in Hyde Park, London, the Great Exhibition of 1851 was one of the defining events of the Victorian period. It stood not only as a visible symbol of British industrial and technological progress but as a figure for modernity--a figure that has often been thought to convey one coherent message and vision of culture and society. This volume examines the place occupied both materially and discursively by the Crystal Palace and other nineteenth- and twentieth-century exhibitions in the struggle to understand what it means to be modern. Initiated in part by a number of conferences held in 2001 to commemorate the 150th anniversary ...

Blueprint for Reconstruction
Inspired by a vision of soaring towers, high-speed transit cars, pristine skies, and blossoming gardens, we move beyond today's automobile-based urban model and embrace a design where the freedom of the individual is paramount and the human energy that defines city life flows unimpeded within an urban matrix engineered to allow for its highest expression. Author Vincent Frank Bedogne drafts a blueprint for what humanity's Evolution of Consciousness and adoption of Economics of Fulfillment make it possible to achieve-perfection of life on earth. We draw a plan for reconstruction of the earth's urban and ecological infrastructure: the city of tomorrow, the countryside of tomorrow, how we will get around and communicate. We embrace a new environmentalism, explore future sources of energy, reveal the solution to humanity's present energy crisis, and look at how we will build to withstand the climatic rigors imposed by a biosphere in evolution.
New Visions and New Voices
In this book, Clifford Mayes and his associates take archetypal pedagogy—a Jungian approach to teaching and learning—and extend it beyond just the “educational processes” that take place in classrooms, which are those spaces that a culture dedicates to the generation and acquisition of codified scholastic knowledge. It looks at the archetypal dynamics of teaching and learning as fundamental to human existence itself. From the cradle to the grave, we are involved in informing and shaping the worldviews of others, just as they are involved in impacting ours. Deep relationship, an I-Thou relationship not only allows but requires this to be the case so that the discussants can become what Martin Buber called “dialogical partners,” engaged in both mutual critique and mutual affirmation, as they reach knew planes of knowledge and even presence. Such teaching and learning are what Mayes calls “educative acts.” This book explores educative acts in a wide range of venues and concerning a variety of issues.
