A History of American Economic Thought Mainstream and Crosscurrents

A History of American Economic Thought Mainstream and Crosscurrents

This vital addition to the Routledge History of Economic Thought series surveys arguably the most important country in the development of economics as we know it today – the United States of America. A History of American Economic Thought is a comprehensive study of American economics as it has evolved over time with several singularly unique features including: a thorough examination of the economics of American aboriginals prior to 1492; a detailed discussion of American economics as it has developed during the last fifty years; and a generous dose of non-mainstream American economics under the rubrics Other Voices and Crosscurrents. It is far from being a native American community and numerous social reformers and those with alternative points of view are given as much weight as the established figures who dominate the mainstream of the profession. Generous doses of American economic history are presented where appropriate to give context to the story of American economics as it proceeds through the ages from seventeenth-century pre-independence into the twentieth-first century packed full of influential figures including John Bates Clark Thorstein Veblen Irving Fisher Paul Samuelson and John Kenneth Galbraith to name but a few. This volume has something for everyone interested in the history of economic thought the nexus of American economic thought and American economic history the fusion of American economics and philosophy and the history of science. | A History of American Economic Thought Mainstream and Crosscurrents

Risk and Protective Environmental Factors for Early Bilingual Language Acquisition

Risk and Protective Environmental Factors for Early Bilingual Language Acquisition

Bilingual language exposure is highly variable with wide-ranging influences on early language skills. This underscores the need for understanding what to expect in early language acquisition so that those with typical language development can be differentiated from those who are struggling or at risk and so requiring early intervention. One of the key ways to look at language development in very young children is to investigate their vocabulary development and for bilingual children this means measuring their abilities in both languages. This book takes an important step in this direction: it documents the expressive vocabularies of children aged 16-45 months who were exposed to different language pairs and bilingual contexts and investigates the risk and protective effects of various environmental factors. In each of the six studies the vocabularies of typically-developing children were measured using the vocabulary checklist of the MacArthur-Bates Communicative Development Inventories and its adaptations to other languages. Developmental and language background questionnaires provided additional information on children’s developmental history risk factors for language impairment language exposure as well as parental education and occupation. This harmonised methodology was designed within COST Action IS0804 (Language Impairment in a Multilingual Society: Linguistic Patterns and the Road to Assessment). The outcomes of this cross-linguistic research contribute towards answering theoretical questions regarding early bilingual vocabulary acquisition. They also have clinical relevance potentially assisting speech-language pathologists and those interested in early language development in distinguishing between clinically significant bilingual delays and the natural consequences of bilingual exposure. This book was originally published as a special issue of the International Journal of Bilingual Education and Bilingualism. | Risk and Protective Environmental Factors for Early Bilingual Language Acquisition

Psychoanalysis and Hidden Narrative in Film Reading the Symptom

Psychoanalysis and Hidden Narrative in Film Reading the Symptom

Psychoanalysis and Hidden Narrative in Film proposes a way of constructing hidden psychological narratives of popular film and novels. Instead of offering interpretations of classic films Trevor C. Pederson recognizes that the psychoanalytic tradition began with making sense of the seemingly inconsequential. Here he turns his attention to popular films like Joel Schumacher's The Lost Boys (1987). While masterworks like Psycho (1960) are not the object of interpretation Hitchcock’s film is used as a skeleton key. The revelation that Norman Bates’ character had been his mother all along suggests a framework of reading a film as having symptom characters who are excised to create a latent plot. The symptom character's behavior or inter-relations are then transcribed to an ego character. This is a shift in the tradition of literary doubling from hermeneutic intuition to a formal methodology that generates data for the unconscious. Pederson continues the project of unifying competing schools into a single model of mind and offers clinical examples from his own practice for all its terms. Psychodynamic techniques that emphasize the importance of working with the body the id and the ubiquity of repetition are introduced. A return to Freud’s structural theory in which complexes are anchored in the stages of superego development is used to carefully plot and explain the social nature of the superego and its relation to authority in society (secondary narcissism) and the otherworldly (primary narcissism). Discrete phases of superego development and their ties to both the social and the id revive the grand promises of classical psychoanalysis to link with every field in the humanities. Psychoanalysis and Hidden Narrative in Film will appeal to psychoanalysts and psychoanalytic psychotherapists as well as scholars of film studies and literature interested in using a psychoanalytic approach and ideas in their work. | Psychoanalysis and Hidden Narrative in Film Reading the Symptom
