Abstract

"In Pragmatic Philosophy of Religion: Melioristic Case Studies, Ulf Zackariasson argues for the fruitfulness of pragmatic philosophy of religion by bringing it to bear on a number of classical topics within the contemporary philosophy of religion. Zackariasson first outlines a version of pragmatic philosophy of religion that takes the pragmatic insistence on the primacy of practice to heart. Here, he shows that religious traditions and their secular counterparts transmit a number of paradigmatic responses that adherents can draw on in their encounters with human life's existential contingencies. He further discusses the upshot of this approach for how we think of miracles, religious diversity, and what it is to be religiously mistaken. In each case, Zackariasson shows that a pragmatic approach offers important novel perspectives and insights that contemporary (primarily analytic) philosophy of religion tends to neglect. By relating to debates and well-known positions within the contemporary philosophy of religion, he also makes these novel perspectives and insights concrete for those who are not already committed pragmatists. The case studies thus serve as invitations to constructive dialogue within an increasingly pluralistic philosophy of religion"--

Abstract

Force est de le constater : on a pu, dans la France de l'après-68, tuer impunément des Arabes. Souvent traité par la justice comme un "accident du travail" ou de la circulation, l'arabicide a bénéficié d'une jurisprudence de fait le transformant en simple délit. Cause première des révoltes des "Beurs", puis de l'embrasement des banlieues la banalisation des arabicides est l'aspect le plus dur de la "question de l'immigration". Il fallait enquêter sur ces "gestes obscurs" qui jettent une lumière crue sur la société française les extraire de la chronique lassante et répétitive des faits divers pour leur donner un statut. En reconstituant cette longue série de meurtres d'Arabes - plus de deux cents en vingt ans - Fausto Giudice a cherché à en élucider les ressorts, les suites et les implications. La chronique commence en 1971, avec le meurtre du jeune Algérien Djilali Ben Ali à la Goutte-d'Or. Elle s achève près d'Angoulême par la mort commune de Mustapha Assouana, jeune Français musulman et Mohamed Daoudi, jeune Marocain, en 1991. Entre ces deux dates se déroule une dramaturgie aux nombreux acteurs reconstituée par l'auteur. Comment et pourquoi l'arabicide s'est-il à ce point banalisé? Fausto Giudice propose une réponse : la V République repose sur un crime fondateur, l'arabicide de masse commis tout au long de la guerre d'Algérie, jusque dans les rues de Paris. Ses auteurs et ses responsables ont bénéficié d'une impunité totale par le jeu des amnisties. Ce fut là le plus formidable encouragement à répéter en temps de paix sur une échelle réduite, ce que militaires, policiers et "simples particuliers" avaient fait en temps de guerre.

Abstract

"How does our faith affect how we think about and respond to climate change? Climate Politics and the Power of Religion is an edited collection that explores the diverse ways that religion shapes climate politics at the local, national, and international levels. Drawing on case studies from across the globe, it stands at the intersection of religious studies, environment policy, and global politics. From small island nations confronting sea-level rise and intensifying tropical storms to high-elevation communities in the Andes and Himalayas wrestling with accelerating glacial melt, there is tremendous variation in the ways that societies draw on religion to understand and contend with climate change. Climate Politics and the Power of Religion offers 10 timely case studies that demonstrate how different communities render climate change within their own moral vocabularies and how such moral claims find purchase in activism and public debates about climate policy. Whether it be Hindutva policymakers in India, curanderos in Peru, or working-class people's concerns about the transgressions of petroleum extraction in Trinidad-religion affects how they all are making sense of and responding to this escalating global catastrophe"--

Abstract

RESIDENSITY: A Carbon Analysis of Residential Typologies' is the culmination of a seven-year study analysing nine building typologies to understand the relationships between building densities and the amount of land and infrastructure required to support them.0The book investigates how much embodied and consumed carbon is used in each typology and how it affects density and open space from the viewpoint of sustainability, carbon emissions, and carbon sequestration. The study determines which building typology is the most sustainable on a comparative basis. Nine prototypical buildings were designed - Megatall, Supertall, High-Rise, Mid-Rise, Low-rise, Courtyard, Three-Flat, Urban Single-Family, and Suburban Single-Family - set within nine prototypical communities. The study designates an archetypal residential community of 2,000 units with an average unit size of 150 sm as a reasonable and representative cross section of different housing typologies.

Abstract

The Wallace Foundation's Partnerships for Social and Emotional Learning Initiative is a six-year initiative that The Wallace Foundation launched in 2017 to explore whether and how children benefit when schools and their out-of-school-time programs partner to improve social and emotional learning (SEL), as well as what it takes to do this work. According to the Collaborative for Academic and Social and Emotional Learning, SEL is "the process through which children and adults understand and manage emotions, set and achieve positive goals, feel and show empathy for others, establish and maintain positive relationships, and make responsible decisions." This case study explores how Dallas's Webster Elementary School and its out-of-school-time program, Thriving Minds After School, formed a SEL committee that became more effective over time, focusing on daily activities to make SEL stick. As Webster staff began using the SEL strategies promoted by the steering committee, attendance, school climate, and student behavior improved. Staff beyond the steering committee began sharing responsibility for SEL on campus - one important goal of the committee. To be sustainable on campus, SEL needs to be embraced by a wider group than just a committee. The school adopted an inclusive house system that interviewees said succeeded in increasing students' sense of belonging and connectedness.
