Positive Alternatives to Exclusion

Positive Alternatives to Exclusion

Positive Alternatives to School Exclusion looks at what schools can do to build more harmonious communities and engage students - particularly those at risk of exclusion - more productively in all areas of school life. It describes the Positive Alternatives to School Exclusion Project a multi-phase collaborative initiative based at the School of Education University of Cambridge. Drawing on the perspectives of staff and pupils the authors provide detailed case studies of the approaches and strategies being adopted in a variety of settings (primary secondary and FE) to foster inclusion and reduce and prevent exclusion. It also identifies a number of different frameworks drawn from the case studies which can be used by practitioners working in other settings to support their own reflection and development work. Particular importance is placed throughout the book on valuing the domain of personal experience in the life of the school community. The authors explore this theme in detail suggesting ways in which it might become a priority focus of further development work in schools. | Positive Alternatives to Exclusion

Critical Game Theory Humanistic and Radical Alternatives to the Mainstream

Critical Game Theory Humanistic and Radical Alternatives to the Mainstream

The models in mainstream game theory generally assume that actors act according to a single consistent utility function. Empirical studies common sense and humanistic wisdom all suggest that that assumption is too simple. This book starts with an assumption that actors are controlled by diverse inconsistent forces and demonstrates that introducing this level of complexity allows for the creation of critical game theory models that can help to attain new insights into nature human nature human institutions and human behavior. The book begins with an evolutionary or Evo model in which the players have concerns for the other player as well as egoistic interests. Part I analyzes the Prisoner’s Dilemma using a literary or Lit model in which the players have entropic or Entro masochistic and sadistic drives as well as altruistic and egoistic ones. Part II suggests that the Lit model opens the door to a “where Entro is let Evo be” critical perspective on politics. Part III considers how core stories in mainstream game theory can be usefully supplemented and deepened by critical models and reflects on possible futures for critical game theory. The discussion of games and subgames includes poems as well as matrices in pursuit of a mode of presentation that respects the complex simultaneously humanistic and scientific qualities of critical game theory. The vision of critical game theory advanced in the book will be of significant interest to researchers in an array of theoretical and applied disciplines including but not limited to literature psychology political science economics computer science ethics business ethics law and law and economics. | Critical Game Theory Humanistic and Radical Alternatives to the Mainstream

Journalism and Climate Crisis Public Engagement Media Alternatives

Journalism and Climate Crisis Public Engagement Media Alternatives

This book enquires into which approaches to journalism as a particularly important form of public communication can best enable humanity to productively address climate crisis. The book combines selective overviews of previous research normative enquiry (what should journalism be doing?) and original empirical case studies of environmental communication and media coverage in Australia and Canada.

Ultimately the book argues for a fundamental rethinking of relationships between journalism publics democracy and climate crisis.
