<div> "This volume, the result of four years of work performed by the combined research groups of Utrecht University (Faculty of Humanities) and the HU Utrecht University of Applied Sciences (Faculty of Education), focuses on the central theme of ‘Normative Professionalization’. </div> <div> <br> </div> <div> Drawing on a wide variety of scholars including Hannah Arendt, Gert Biesta, Harry Kunneman, Donald Schön and Chris Argyris, and engaging with professionalism, ethics, virtue and morality, this book builds the argument that learning to deal with complexity supports not only education but the personal development of teachers and the improvement of society and democracy as well. This volume presents research on a broad range of topics such as worldview education, co-teaching, moral authorship, traditional-reform perspectives on education, the discourse on citizenship, teacher education, and the question how to link religion and education. The research chapters explain the theoretical lenses and methodological approaches which have been employed to get a grip on complexity. The results have been interpreted in light of the concepts of horror complexitatis, amor complexitatis and dolor complexitatis. Guided by detailed research accounts of worldview descriptions provided by students and teachers, this framework has been enriched with the notion of a passio complexitatis. In the concluding chapters, the book advocates for an improved balance between the normative and instrumental professionalization of teachers, in order to create space for the improvement of pedagogical relations and processes and to reintroduce the moral dimensions of education. The claim throughout this book is that allowing for complexity in education – even going so far as to embrace it – is vital for the improvement of education, and a prerequisite for more authentic relationships (on the micro level) and the maintenance of a well-functioning democracy and a balanced society (on the macro level).  </div> <div> <br> </div> <div> This book is of interest to researchers and educators who are interested in normative professionalization, to qualitative and practice oriented researchers, to teachers and managers in primary, secondary and professional education, and to the wider public which is concerned with the significance of education for the development of a stable and sustainable society." </div> <div> <br> </div>

<p>Combining the conceptual tools of interactionist and social constructionist positions, this book presents an in-depth investigation of emotions in digital interactions. Through the central case study of online bereavement communities for women who have suffered perinatal loss, this volume highlights the significance of affective sanctioning as constitutive of group dynamics and practice. The authors chart the emergence of a new ethnopsychology of motherhood—the category of ‘Angels’ Mothers’—arising from the localized practices of a community whose experience of grief is otherwise disenfranchised. Through their detailed theoretical exploration of the centrality of micro-situational dynamics, alongside the rich empirical illustration of collectively shared feeling rules and norms, Rafanell and Sawicka develop a naturalistic approach to the analysis of empirical data, providing insights for policy-making interventions.   </p>

<b>Un enfant du continent chamboule la paisible vie de la tribu Bobo.</b> <br> <br>Rockfort, petite île non loin du continent. Ses habitants y coulent des jours heureux. Tout semble réussir aux descendants de la tribu BOBO qui colonisa l’île quelques siècles auparavant. On s’amuse, on rit, on adule le Rock, la musique phare qu’on célèbre chaque année en été. Mais un jour, un enfant du continent fait son apparition. Un môme bien différent de ceux de ce petit bout d’insularité. Une demi-portion rebelle, avide de changement. Un bambin qui provoque l’admiration et l’effroi. Sera-t-il capable de faire bouger les lignes de Rockfort, micro-société parfaite ? <br>Le jeu est un point central du roman. On joue pour se divertir, pour apprendre, pour atténuer ses souffrances, pour défier les frontières de l’enfance et de l’âge adulte. Mais le jeu est parfois dangereux, imprévisible. En vaut-il vraiment la chandelle ? Ce roman s’adresse aux jeunes plus tout à fait innocents et aux adultes en mal d’enfance. Au final, n’y a-t-il pas des sujets qui nous rapprochent, nous tous, petits comme grands ? <br> <br> <b>Plongez dans un récit pour petits et grands, dont le point central est le jeu : le jeu pour se divertir, pour atténuer ses souffrances, et pour défier les frontières de l'enfance et de l'âge adulte.</b> <br> <br>EXTRAIT <br> <br>– Bonjour à tous. Me voici devant la sortie de l’école de Parfaiteville. Mes chers téléspectappeurés, soyez enfin rassurés ! Tous les enseignants sont sains et saufs. Toutefois, quelle humiliation ! Tous sont bardés de peinture rouge, c’est monstrueux ! On a l’impression d’avoir affaire à une horde de zombies buveurs de sang ! Cher Président 100 %, que comptez-vous faire désormais ? <br> – Eh bien ! Nous allons voir. Lavons déjà ces pauvres gens. <br> – Oui, mais après ? Vous ne pouvez pas intervenir tant qu’il n’y a que des enfants, n’est-ce pas ? <br> – C’est vrai, hélas ! Mais la nature va nous aider, soyons patients ! <br> – C’est-à-dire ? Je ne comprends pas ! <br> – Regardez cet arbrisseau, planté là depuis peu. Croyez-vous qu’il va rester ainsi éternellement ? <br> – Euh, non, je ne pense pas. <br> – Alors vous avez tout compris. Soyons patients. Tout évolue avec le temps. Laissons ces mômes perdre leurs dents de lait tranquillement. La jeune fleur finit toujours pas éclore. <br> – Magnifique, quelle poésie ! Mes chers auditeurs, ayez confiance en 100 %. Un jour, tout rentrera dans l’ordre. <br> Une fois débarrassés des derniers adultes, les 99 mômes restants purent reprendre une vie normale. Concernant l’enquête au sujet de l’affaire du mur, les choses avancèrent à grands pas. Un réseau de contrebande de bonbons fut mis au grand jour. Il impliqua une dizaine d’élèves qui, de la sorte, s’octroyèrent des revenus importants. Ils avaient découvert une brèche dans l’ouvrage de pierre qui leur permettait de sortir la nuit afin de ramener des sucreries en tout genre. Une peine en un simple exemplai...

The book is devoted to the description of the fundamentals in the area of magnetic resonance. The book covers two domains: radiospectroscopy and quantum radioelectronics. Radiospectroscopy comprises nuclear magnetic resonance , electron paramagnetic resonance, nuclear quadrupolar resonance, and some other phenomena. The radiospectroscopic methods are widely used for obtaining the information on internal (nano, micro and macro) structure of objects. Quantum radioelectronics, which was developed on the basis of radiospectroscopic methods, deals with processes in quantum amplifiers, generators and magnetometers. We do not know analogues of the book presented. The book implies a few levels of the general consideration of phenomena, that can be useful for different groups of readers (students, PhD students, scientists from other scientific branches: physics, chemistry, physical chemistry, biochemistry, biology and medicine).

Democracy is in crisis because voices of the people are ignored due to a politics of mass society. After demonstrating how the French Fourth Republic failed, wherein Singapore’s totalitarianism is a dangerous model, Washington is enmeshed in gridlock, and there is a global democracy deficit, solutions are offered to revitalize democracy as the best form of government. The book demonstrates how mass society politics operates, with intermediate institutions of civil society (media, pressure groups, political parties) no longer transmitting the will of the people to government but instead are concerned with corporate interests and have developed oligarchical mindsets. Rather than micro-remedy bandaids, the author focuses on the need to transform governing philosophies from pragmatic to humanistic solutions.  <div> <br> </div>
