Niobe way (130 Ergebnisse)

Hardback. Zustand: Good. Boys are less sensitive than girls. Boys don't need emotional intimacy. Boys are rational, intelligent, and competitive. Boys will be boys. Assumptions like these maintain 'boy culture.' This reality pushes boys into gendered roles that leave them disconnected from each other. It's getting worse. In 1990, 3 percent of men reported having no close friends; now, 15 percent do. This crisis of connection has led to 'toxic masculinity,' 'the epidemic of fatherlessness,' and most sensationally 'the end of men,' while real boys all around us are experiencing more depression, anxiety, loneliness, even suicide and violence. As Niobe Way's interviews with boys from all income levels show, children have strong emotional and social skills. Pre-teen boys speak openly about their love for male friends, their desire to share deep secrets, and their need to discuss problems rather than avoiding them. It is only as they grow older and are pressured to 'man up' that these abilities are lost. We can fix it! As Way shows with powerful heart-rending stories, when teens resist 'boy' culture, they experience higher self-esteem, friendship quality, and math achievement, along with lower levels of depression. A caring climate at home, in school, and in society that encourages connection and friendship makes the difference. Culture war stories may get television ratings and politicians elected, but this book will help us nurture our boys.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Uncovers the roots and consequences of and offers solutions to the widespread alienation and disconnection that beset modern society Since the beginning of the 21st century, people have become increasingly disconnected from themselves, each other, and the world around them. A "crisis of connection" stemming from growing alienation, social isolation, and fragmentation characterizes modern society. The signs of this crisis of connection are everywhere, from decreasing levels of empathy and trust, to burgeoning cases of suicide, depression and loneliness. The astronomical rise in inequality around the world has contributed to the critical nature of this moment. To delve into the heart of the crisis, leading researchers and practitioners draw from the science of human connection to tell a five-part story about its roots, consequences, and solutions. In doing so, they reveal how we, in modern society, have been captive to a false story about who we are as human. This false narrative that takes individualism as a universal truth, has contributed to many of the problems that we currently face. The new story now emerging from across the human sciences underscores our social and emotional capacities and needs. The science also reveals the ways in which the privileging of the self over relationships and of individual success over the common good as well as the perpetuation of dehumanizing stereotypes have led to a crisis of connection that is now widespread. Finally, the practitioners in the volume present concrete solutions that show ways we can create a more just and humane world. In a time of social distancing and enforced isolation, it is more important than ever to find ways to bridge the gaps among individuals and communities. The Crisis of Connection illuminates concrete pathways to enhancing our awareness of our common humanity, and offers important steps to coming together in unity, even across distances. …
