Paperback. Zustand: Good. The goal of this book is to reveal why the study of communication is important in terms of deepening our understanding of the human condition, enlarging how we frame and resolve human problems and struggles, and appreciating the different perspectives that communication brings to the study of the human experience. The study of communication is important because we create ourselves, each other, and our worlds through communication. How we communicate, so we become, and what we become will determine what becomes of us and our worlds. This book highlights the consequences and implications that come with different ways of defining, understanding, and studying communication. Its goal is to promote a robust and rigorous examination of these different consequences and implications, and also to encourage us to look reflectively on how these consequences and implications bear on us. We understand the importance of communication by appreciating the importance and substance of these consequences and implications. This book is ideally suited for persons who teach any kind of introductory communication course and are looking for a text that is theoretically rigorous, intellectually expansive, and pedagogically elegant. It also promises to be the most affordable communication textbook on the market.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - In this book I argue against inclusion. Rather than promoting diversity, I contend that inclusion diminishes human diversity, brutalizes human diversity, and, ultimately, destroys human diversity. Nothing about inclusion is good for human diversity. Inclusion assumes that in order for us to thrive collectively, our differences must be tamed, sanitized, and harmonized. Inclusion must come first, meaning that diversity must always yield to the demands of inclusion. However, in destroying diversity, inclusion protects the status quo by promoting conformity and homogeneity. The diversity that inclusion champions is nothing but a caricature of diversity. It is diversity in name only. It has no capacity or yearning to disrupt or renew anything. Its only ambition is to be included and affirmed. I treat inclusion as a hegemon-a vast system of values, beliefs, fears, structures, and practices that imposes and sustains a certain set of supposed truths about the human experience. I aim to demystify this hegemon, specifically the implications and consequences that come with this hegemon.…

Boards show short creases to corners. Issued without a dust jacket. -- "Examining actual policy to identify the facts, this book exposes how racially charged political and legal debates over immigration reform in the United States continue to inform our immigration policy. Immigration reform policies continue to influence domains like housing ordinances, official language laws, mass deportation, and bilingual education, amongst many other topics. In this work, authors Donathan Brown and Amardo Rodriguez demonstrate how immigration policies belie simplistic conversations pertaining to border control. Their focus is on actual policy as opposed to mere headlines and "talking points," as it is policy and the debates that it produces that inform the headlines and subsequently incite controversy and heated arguments. Each chapter of the book addresses both policies and the fallout they produce to clearly articulate how such policies usurp fact with fiction, producing residual messages that equate "diversity" with destroying our social and political order. This accessible book provides high school, college, and graduate-level students insight into the laws and lawsuits stemming from current legislation, an understanding of the peculiar racial dimensions intertwined in these policies and debates, as well as comprehension of immigration reform against the grander backdrop of the growing Latino demographic in the United States. The authors argue that the varying degrees of immigration reform passed by state legislatures throughout the country are based on thinking that ignores the sociopolitical and cultural realities of modern-day America and continue to rely less on facts and more on fear, causing greater deep-seated paranoia, distrust, and resentment within our nation." -- Contents: Introduction: The Continual Problems with Race and Public Policy; 1.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This book is about knowledge, knowledge workers, and the enterprise of knowledge. The knowledge enterprise in the western/European world assumes a relationship between knowledge and prosperity; supposedly the more knowledge we create and disseminate, the more prosperity we will achieve. We account for our own supposed civilizational superiority by the fact that we have the largest stockpiles of knowledge, that we are the most committed to producing more and more knowledge workers, and also more and more competent knowledge workers, that we have the most elaborate institutions, structures, and practices to create, analyze, and share knowledge, that we continue to value and prize the labor and industry of knowledge workers, and that other nations and peoples admire and even aspire to have a knowledge enterprise like ours, including all the institutions, arrangements, and practices. In this book I look critically at the making, working, and propagating of this knowledge enterprise, especially the training and qualifying of knowledge workers, the practices and apparatuses that constitute academic excellence, and, finally, the implications and consequences of this enterprise in terms of intensifying a new colonialism.…
