Hoeveel geld is genoeg? Van wie is de aarde? Is de natuur gemaakt of vanzelf ontstaan? Wie is de baas van je wil? Filosoferen op het bord is een methode om speels en stapsgewijs bovenstaande vragen te onderzoeken met een groep kinderen tussen 10 en 12 jaar. Doel is dat de kinderen eraan gewend raken gedachten uit te wisselen en na te denken over de vragen en de dilemma's die het leven biedt. Zo kunnen ze een eigen persoonlijke visie ontwikkelen op wat belangrijk is in het leven. De belevingswereld van kinderen staat hierbij steeds centraal. De aanpak is geschikt voor alle opvoeders en scholen die met open vizier kijken naar de levensvragen die op het pad van kinderen komen.

The key to understanding household saving is obtaining appropriate data. Dealing with differences between rich and poor households, for example, or the old and the young, require observation of a large number of households. The focus of this study is to obtain data on many households from a number of different countries and to examine them in a coherent fashion. The hope is that through these observations we can learn about the ways policies affect savings and that other differences among savers can be controlled for, instead of being blamed on ""cultural differences* Features a consi

This book follows the ways in which women negotiate and navigate between their feminist identities and their belonging to science fiction fandoms that at times disregard or dismiss them. It explores frictions and discords, including those between feminist women fans and other members in their communities, and between the fan and the object of her fandom. This book examines the intersection of fandom and feminism through the lenses of gender, ethnicity and age, and provides an in-depth and intersectional perspective on fan communities and the layered discrimination and marginalization enfolded in them. Based on 40 in-depth interviews with women fans of Star Wars and Doctor Who, this book highlights the different aspects of a feminist woman fan's identity: becoming, being, belonging, representing, and reconciling. Each chapter in this book unravels the complexity, ambivalence, and contradictions between feminism and fandom, and reveals the tactics women develop to overcome and harmonize them. Neta Yodovich is a postdoctoral researcher who is currently studying cultural policy in a research project funded by the EU Horizon 2020 framework. She completed her PhD in Sociology at the University of Manchester. Her PhD research on feminist women fans serves as the basis for this book. She has previously published peer-reviewed journal articles about women fans, gamers, and representations of singlehood in popular culture in Sociology, Feminist Media Studies, Games and Culture, Women's Studies in Communication, and the European Journal of Women's Studies.

Marokkaanse jongeren kunnen zich verbazen over de vrije manier waarop hun ouders in de jaren zestig en zeventig gekleed gingen. Zelf houden zij zich zeer bewust met hun kleding bezig en hechten in sommige gevallen aan religieuze voorschriften. De vraag is: verschilt de manier waarop zij zich kleden wezenlijk van die van hun ouders? Ik heb wel eens oude fotos van mijn ouders gezien. Mijn moeder droeg toen rokjes! En mijn vader had een Afro! Ik zei tegen hem, hoe durfde je? Maar dat was toen echt mode. Aan de hand van fotos en interviews met leden van verschillende generaties, schetst deze studi

Er waart een popvirus door het land. Steeds meer sferen in de samenleving lijken gepopulariseerd te worden. Religie vindt een nieuwe weg op de videowebsite GodTube.com; debatten over islam en integratie worden voor een breed en jong publiek gebracht in televisieseries als Dunya en Desie; HEMA-posters en videoclips rukken op in kunstmusea. Soms gebeurt deze popularisering van bovenaf, door museumdirecteuren of televisiemakers; soms ook komt het van onderaf, als internetgebruikers bijvoorbeeld zelf op een politieke discussie reageren op YouTube.Maar wat betekent deze popularisering eigenlijk?

The Ambiguous Allure of the West examines the impact of Western imperialism on Thai cultural development from the 1850s to the present and highlights the value of postcolonial analysis for studying the ambiguities, inventions, and accommodations with the West that continue to enrich Thai culture. Since the mid-nineteenth century, Thais have adopted and adapted aspects of Western culture and practice in an ongoing relationship that may be characterized as semicolonial. As they have done so, the notions of what constitutes ""Thainess"" have been inflected by Western influence in complex and ambi
