Education for Sustainability and Global Citizenship - Dr Namrata Sharma - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

Education for Sustainability and Global Citizenship - Dr Namrata Sharma - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

How do we address teaching for sustainability and global citizenship for social-ecological justice based on alternative paradigms? This book addresses the implications of the environmental crisis on formal, non-formal and informal education from a human rights position. The author introduces a pedagogical approach called ‘value-creating global citizenship education’ from a study of selected Asian perspectives, building on the UN sustainable development goals, and beyond. The key focus is to develop resilience and hope through engaged relationships between learners and their environments. Examples are drawn from Indigenous knowledge, diverse ecological worldviews and practices including the Earth Charter, the Soka Amazon Institute, and the United Nations Harmony with Nature Knowledge Network that promotes Earth Jurisprudence. The book offers practical solutions for planetary citizenship for educators and policymakers, including teaching and curriculum guidelines that can be used to integrate intercultural perspectives and develop a global outlook.

In Place of a Show - Augusto Corrieri - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

In Place of a Show - Augusto Corrieri - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

In Place of a Show is a compelling account of Western theatre buildings in the 21st century: theatres stripped of their primary purpose, lying empty, preserved as museums, or demolished. Playfully combining first-person narratives, scholarly research and visual documents, Augusto Corrieri explores the material and imaginative potentials of these places, charting interconnections between humans, birds, vegetation, and the beguiling animations of inanimate things, such as walls, curtains and seats. Across four chapters we learn of the uncanny dismantling and reconstitution of a German Baroque auditorium during the Second World War; the phantasmal remains of a demolished music hall in London’s East End; a Renaissance Italian theatre, fleetingly transformed into an aviary by the appearance of a swallow; and a lavish opera house emerging from the Amazon rainforest. In these pages we are invited to discover theatres as sites of anomalous encounters and surprising coincidences: places that might reveal the performative entanglement of human and nonhuman worlds.

Master of Attic Black Figure Painting - Dr Elizabeth Moignard - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

Master of Attic Black Figure Painting - Dr Elizabeth Moignard - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

The great 6th-century BCE Attic potter-painter Exekias is acclaimed as the most accomplished exponent of late ''black-figure'' art. His vases, vessels, bowls and amphorae are reproduced on postcards and in other media all over the world. Despite his importance in the history of art and archaeology, little has been written about Exekias in his own right. Elizabeth Moignard, a leading historian of classical art, here corrects that neglect by addressing her subject as more than just a painter. She positions Exekias as a remarkable but nevertheless grounded and receptive man of his age, working in an Athens that was sensitive to Homeric literature and drawing on that great corpus of poetry to explore its own emerging concepts of honour, heroism, leadership and military tradition. Discussing a range of ceramic pieces, Moignard illustrates their impact and meaning, deconstructing iconic images like the suicide of Ajax; the voyage of Dionysus surrounded by dolphins; and the killing by Achilles of the Amazon queen Penthesilea. This book is the most complete introduction to its subject to be published in English.

Indigeneity and the Decolonizing Gaze - Robert Stam - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

Indigeneity and the Decolonizing Gaze - Robert Stam - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

Against the long historical backdrop of 1492, Columbus, and the Conquest, Robert Stam's wide-ranging study traces a trajectory from the representation of indigenous peoples by others to self-representation by indigenous peoples, often as a form of resistance and rebellion to colonialist or neoliberal capitalism, across an eclectic range of forms of media, arts, and social philosophy. Spanning national and transnational media in countries including the US, Brazil, Canada, France, Germany, and Italy, Stam orchestrates a dialogue between the western mediated gaze on the 'Indian' and the indigenous gaze itself, especially as incarnated in the burgeoning movement of “indigenous media,” that is, the use of audio-visual-digital media for the social and cultural purposes of indigenous peoples themselves. Drawing on examples from cinema, literature, music, video, painting and stand-up comedy, Stam shows how indigenous artists, intellectuals and activists are responding to the multiple crises - climatological, economic, political, racial, and cultural - confronting the world. Significant attention is paid to the role of arts-based activism in supporting the struggle of indigenous artistic activism, of the Yanomami people specifically, to save the Amazon forest and the planet.

Designing Retail Experience in the 21st Century - D.j. Huppatz - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

Designing Retail Experience in the 21st Century - D.j. Huppatz - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

Covering 2001 to today, Designing Retail Experience in the 21st Century presents readers with a critical, cross-disciplinary perspective on retail design, bringing together scholarship from design, architecture, branding, cultural studies and social studies . Our retail experience has changed profoundly over the past two decades, largely due to the impact of digital technologies. While the rise of smartphones and online commerce threatened to displace ‘bricks and mortar’ stores, physical shopping has survived and, in some cases, thrived. Today, the most successful brands design experiences that engage customers both within the physical store and in the digital realm. In this book, D.J. Huppatz analyses how corporations design these experiences, how we interact with them, and how they align with broader social, cultural and economic changes. Eight case studies reveal how some of the largest global retail chains, including Apple, Amazon, Nike, Zara, IKEA and LEGO, and smaller chains such as Aesop and Gentle Monster, utilize design to create engaging experiences. Unlike in the past, such corporations consider design in a continuum that extends from architecture and interiors to product and service design, and from website and digital interactions to social media. At the intersection of design and cultural studies, this book provides a critical survey and understanding of design and retail experience in the 21st century.

The Archaeology of Amazonia - Professor Jose Iriarte - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

The Archaeology of Amazonia - Professor Jose Iriarte - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

This open access book examines the untold human history of the Amazon rainforest, from the arrival of the earliest humans to the present. A spate of recent discoveries in unexplored regions and technological breakthroughs have allowed us to peer through the forest canopy to the earth below, revealing an entirely new picture of Amazonian past, which overturns the long-held assumption of a virgin rainforest. This book demonstrates how Amazonia’s current diversity of landscapes and people are deeply rooted in prehistory with lasting repercussions on today’s rainforests. Among the major achievements of ancient Amazonian peoples were the domestication of globally important crops, including manioc, cacao, rice, yams and sweet potato, manufactured America’s first ceramics, engineered the landscape for sustainable food production, built massive geometric ceremonial structures, and had distinctively complex, early urban polities that can rival any civilization of antiquity. Amazonia is currently facing a crisis and lessons from its traditional peoples are more urgent than ever. The extraordinary archaeological discoveries of recent years are not just spectacle, but represent the history of a way of life that is rapidly disappearing, and on which the Amazonian rainforest as a major reservoir of biodiversity, and in turn all humanity, depends. By connecting the past to the present and bringing to light the critical role of today''s indigenous and traditional lands in providing a barrier to deforestation under current climate and political pressures, The Archaeology of Amazonia lays out the way ahead to a more socially responsible future of rainforest management. The ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com. Open access was funded by the European Research Council.

China and Latin America - Alvaro Mendez - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

China and Latin America - Alvaro Mendez - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

China’s role as an economic powerhouse in Latin America is reshaping a region on the cusp of development and change. Since the turn of the century, bilateral trade between China and Latin America has increased massively, going from $12.17 billion in 2000 to $307.94 billion in 2019. From the pampas of Argentina and the vast Brazilian Amazon to Panama’s canal and Jamaica’s coastal waters, China is financing roads, railways, dams and ports that are transforming regional economies and societies. Beyond China’s global search for resources and markets, Bejing’s engagement with Latin America is amplified by cutting-edge technologies and a growing assertiveness in regional diplomatic and military affairs. The United States, once complacent in its dominant position over its proverbial ‘backyard’, is increasingly alarmed by the spectacle of deepening Chinese involvement in this part of the Western hemisphere.What are we to make of these shifting dynamics? In this detailed and up-to-the-minute investigation, Chris Alden, author of the critically acclaimed China in Africa, and Alvaro Mendez, leading expert in the international relations of Latin America, look at the interests, strategies and practices of China’s incoming power. The book starts by unpacking the historical links between Imperial China and Colonial Latin America through the 19th century, then turns to the revolutionary role played by Mao’s China during the Cold War. Next, it turns to global China’s contemporary expansion into Latin America by focusing on the development dimensions of engagement in individual countries, and concurrently, on the exercise of agency by Latin American governments and societies intent on managing Chinese interests to their advantage. Finally, the book addresses these relationships in the context of heightened global competition between China and the United States, which in Latin America manifests as sharpened contestation over everything from investment in lithium mining to the promotion of Covid vaccines.
