Subject: new book--a diversity reader
Hello FEAST members,
Our book on Diversity, Social Justice, and Inclusive Excellence:
Transdisciplinary and Global Perspectives
has been published with SUNY Press.
http://www.sunypress.edu/p-5858-diversity-social-justice-and-in.aspx
An interdisciplinary anthology exploring issues related to diversity,
multiculturalism, and social justice.
It includes several articles which address Iris M. Youngıs 5 faces of
oppression.
When students are introduced to the study of diversity and social
justice, it is usually from sociological and psychological
perspectives. The scholars and activists featured in this anthology
reject this approach as too limiting, insisting that we adopt a view
that is both transdisciplinary and multiperspectival. Their essays
focus on the components of diversity, social justice, and inclusive
excellence, not just within the United States but in other parts of the
world. They examine diversity in the contexts of culture, race, class,
gender, learned ability and dis/ability, religion, sexual orientation,
and citizenship, and explore how these concepts and identities
interrelate. The result is a book that will provide readers with a
better theoretical understanding of diversity studies and will enable
them to see and think critically about oppression and how systems of
oppression may be challenged.
At the State University of New York College at Cortland,
Seth N. Asumah is SUNY Distinguished Teaching Professor and Professor of
Political Science,
and Mechthild Nagel is Professor of Philosophy.
Together they have coedited Prisons and Punishment: Reconsidering Global
Penality.
