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

Bij gedeeld burgerschap kunnen burgers omgaan met verschillen en zijn zij betrokken bij de samenleving. Maar de praktijk wijst anders uit. ""Ik ben wel voor het samenleven. In hoeverre dat werkt, dat is een ander verhaal"", zegt een bewoner uit Eindhoven. Signalen als deze waren voor FORUM, Instituut voor Multiculturele Vraagstukken, aanleiding tot onderzoek in vijf 'gemengde' buurten.

Aftermaths is a collection of essays offering compelling new ideas on exile, migration, and diaspora that have emerged in the global age. The ten contributors-well-established scholars and promising new voices-work in different disciplines and draw from diverse backgrounds as they present rich case studies from around the world. In seeking fresh perspectives on the movement of people and ideas, the essays included here look to the power of the aesthetic experience, especially in literature and film, to unsettle existing theoretical paradigms and enable the rethinking of conventionalized approaches. Marcus Bullock and Peter Y. Paik, in bringing this collection together, show we have reached a moment in history when it is imperative to question prevailing intellectual models. The interconnectedness of the world's economies, the contributors argue, can exacerbate existing antagonisms or create new ones. With essays by Ihab Hassan, Paul Brodwin, and Helen Fehervary, among others, Aftermaths engages not only with important academic topics but also with the leading political issues of the day.

Indigenous media challenges the power of the state, erodes communication monopolies, and illuminates government threats to indigenous cultural, social, economic, and political sovereignty. Its effectiveness in these areas, however, is hampered by government control of broadcast frequencies, licensing, and legal limitations over content and ownership.Indigenous Screen Cultures in Canada explores key questions surrounding the power and suppression of indigenous narrative and representation in contemporary indigenous media. Focussing primarily on the Aboriginal Peoples Television Network, the authors also examine indigenous language broadcasting in radio, television, and film; Aboriginal journalism practices; audience creation within and beyond indigenous communities; the roles of program scheduling and content acquisition policies in the decolonization process; the roles of digital video technologies and co-production agreements in indigenous filmmaking; and the emergence of Aboriginal cyber-communities.

The Alliance Israélite Universelle--an international organization representing a community of over 240,000 Jews--was founded in France in 1860. Its goal was to achieve the intellectual regeneration and social and political elevation of the Jewish people. This book examines the impact of the AIU on Moroccan Jewry. It answers such questions as: How did the AIU establish itself in Morocco's communities? How did it go on to become a power not to be underestimated by either the Moroccan government or the Europeans? And more importantly, how did the AIU improve the conditions of the Jews in Morocco, creating an important French-speaking urban elite? Also discussed are such topics as Zionism and Jewish-Muslim relations in Morocco.

Door toerisme, tv, internet en toegenomen migratie beseffen mensen dat hun eigen cultuur slechts een van de vele is. Dit werkt ook door in de psychologie. Psychologen merken steeds vaker dat het gedrag, de emoties en het denken van hun cliënten per cultuur verschillen. De auteur beschrijft de zoektocht naar de wisselwerking tussen het menselijk gedrag en de culturele omgeving. Hiermee biedt het een overzichtelijke introductie in deze tak van de psychologie. Het begrip cultuur wordt in relatie gebracht met taal, cognitie en intelligentie, persoonlijkheid, interpersoonlijke relaties en psychische gezondheid. Ook worden de culturele diversiteit in teams en organisaties, het trainen van multiculturele effectiviteit en de adaptatieprocessen tussen immigranten en de Nederlandse samenleving besproken. De theorie wordt geïllustreerd met casuïstiek en (inter)nationale voorbeelden. Deze herziene druk is geheel geactualiseerd. Zo wordt er een link gelegd met de actuele problematiek en wordt aandacht besteed aan lichamelijke gezondheid in relatie tot de psychologie

The slave trade, the conquest of the Americas and the invasion of Africa have deeply transformed the relations between Europeans and other groups. The jump from difference to superiority and racial hierarchy was so swift that it led to the moral collapse of Europe and North America. By shifting the devaluation of so-called 'inferior' beings from non-Whites to non-Aryans, Nazism committed the unforgivable crime of bringing into the heart of the European world a ferocity up to then reserved for other continents. In this book, White Ferocity: The Genocides of Non-Whites and Non-Aryans from 1492 to Date, Plumelle-Uribe investigates and demonstrates, with harrowing evidence and analyses, how Europeans justified the destruction of other peoples as unavoidable based on the officially declared belief of others being inferior.
