Noble Victory
MANDEEP K. ATWAL KNEW FROM A YOUNG AGE SHE WANTED TO FIGHT FOR EQUALITY. Motivated and driven, she pursued a career in law, but even when she was a full-fledged lawyer and everything had gone according to her plans, she still felt like something was missing. She felt that it was time to start a family with her husband, Samir. But little did they know how that decision would take their souls to places they never could have imagined. After multiple complications during the delivery, Mandeep gave birth to her son, JSS. The initial months of motherhood were difficult—and then, everything changed when Mandeep and Samir discovered their son had autism. Their lives became a whirlwind of therapies...
The German Migration Integration Regime
Syrian refugees who gained asylum in Germany following the so-called refugee crisis in 2015 quickly entered into an ‘integration regime’ which produced a binary notion of ‘well integrated’ migrants versus refugees falling short of the narrow social and political definitions of a ‘good’ refugee. Etzel’s rich ethnographic study shows how refugees navigated this conditional inclusion. While some asylum seekers gained international protection, others were left with limited agency to demand government accountability for the ever-moving target of integration. Putting a spotlight on the inconsistencies and failings of a universal approach to integration, this is an important contribution to the wider field of migration and anthropology of the state.
Bildung im Kontext von Flucht und Migration
Die Teilhabemöglichkeiten in Bildung und Ausbildung gestalten sich für Jugendliche und junge Erwachsene, die migriert bzw. geflüchtet sind, immer noch als strukturell unzureichend. Spezifische Formate, den formalen Einbezug zu gestalten, wie etwa die sogenannten Vorbereitungsklassen, gehen dabei zuweilen mit Benachteiligungen oder symbolischer Ausgrenzung einher. Institutionelle und gesellschaftliche Verhältnisse zwischen Ein- und Ausgrenzung spiegeln sich nicht zuletzt in den (Bildungs-)Biographien jener wider, die sich in diesen beweisen müssen. Der Sammelband trägt Perspektiven und Erkenntnisse zusammen, die sich kritisch mit Bildungsverhältnissen und deren Erforschung im Kontext von Flucht und Migration beschäftigen.
Einrichten in der Normalität – Wie Kinder und Jugendliche in Großwohnsiedlungen wohnen
Das Buch “Einrichten in der Normalität” untersucht die komplexen Wohnrealitäten in den Großsiedlungen der Nachkriegszeit und fordert die vorherrschende negative Wahrnehmung in der öffentlichen Debatte heraus. Zugleich thematisiert es die zunehmende Relevanz von städtischen Großsiedlungen im Kontext urbaner Wohn(ungs)krisen. Im Mittelpunkt stehen die oft übersehenen Erfahrungen von Kindern und Jugendlichen in diesen Siedlungen, wobei der Fokus auf der Diskrepanz zwischen den tatsächlichen Wohnpraxen junger Menschen und der unzureichenden Berücksichtigung ihrer Perspektiven in der Wohnungsplanung und -gestaltung liegt. Der Sammelband vereint verschiedene Text- und Bildformate von ...

The Emblems of James Reaney
The literary emblem can trace its roots back to sixteenth-century English collections, which sought to reconcile classical philosophy with Christian doctrine. Consisting of images and verses, emblems challenged readers to use their wit and knowledge to deduce the connection between the visual and the textual. In The Emblems of James Reaney, former Reaney student and professor Thomas Gerry draws on his own considerable wit and knowledge to help readers understand the myth, mystery and meaning behind ten literary emblems, published in 1972 as ‘Two Chapters from an Emblem Book’ by poet, playwright and painter James Reaney. Gerry conducts an exhaustive investigation of the ‘magnetic arrang...

Pretending and Imagination in Animals and Children
This book provides an overview of recent research presenting conflicting interpretations of children's understanding of the psychology of pretense and describes sociocultural factors which influence children's pretenses. Studies of nonhuman primates provide examples of their pretenses and other simulative activities, explore their representational and imaginative capacities and compare their skills with children. Although the psychological requirements for pretending are controversial, evidence presented in this volume suggests that great apes and even monkeys may share capacities for imagination with children and that children's early pretenses may be less psychological than they appear.
