Megaprojects for Megacities
Megaprojects for Megacities is a collection of 14 international case studies of transportation, urban development, and environmental megaprojects completed during the last ten years in North America, Asia and Europe. It goes beyond the previous megaproject literature to look at how and why each project was conceived, planned, engineered, financed, and delivered, and at how particular planning and delivery practices shaped outcomes.
Bodies, Matter and Language in Transnational English Teachers’ Storying
Innovative work which will open up new ways of thinking and conceptualizing translingual pedagogies and bring new light to TESOL pedagogies and projects. This book investigates the translingual pedagogies of women and queer/non-binary transnational teachers of English in three programs in the US and Spain. By storying their pedagogies, the author demonstrates how they build and cultivate connections within (bodies, minds and spirits), with communities and with the environment around them, transgressing binary thinking and dualistic worlds. Through the experiences of these teachers, the author addresses some of the most pressing questions facing language teaching, connecting issues of colonial legacies and contemporary systems of oppression with the need for a different approach to teacher education. Building on their storying, the author proposes a pedagogy of (e)merging paths, based on relationality and collaboration.
Something's Gotta Change
Indigenous people are pushing back against more than 200 years of colonisation and rejecting being seen by the academy as ‘subjects’ of research. A quiet revolution is taking place among many Indigenous communities across Australia, a revolution insisting that we have control over our languages and our cultural knowledge – for our languages to be a part of our future, not our past. We are reclaiming our right to determine how linguistic research takes place in our communities and how we want to engage with the academy in the future. This book is an essential guide for non-Indigenous linguists wanting to engage more deeply with Indigenous communities and form genuinely collaborative research partnerships. It fleshes out and redefines ethical linguistic research and work with Indigenous people and communities, with application beyond linguistics. By reassessing, from an Indigenous point of view, what it means to ‘save’ an endangered language, Something’s Gotta Change shows how linguistic research can play a positive role in keeping (maintaining) or putting (reclaiming) endangered languages on our tongues.
Thinking
The “THINKING: Bioengineering of Science and Art” is to discuss about philosophical aspects of thinking at the context of Science and Art. External representations provide evidence that the fundamental process of thinking exists in both animal subjects and humans. However, the diversity and complexity of thinking in humans is astonishing because humans have been permitted to integrate scientific accounts into their accounts and create excellent illustrations for the effects of this integration. The book necessarily begins with the origins of human thinking and human thinking into self and others, body, and life. Multiple factors tend to modify the pattern of thinking. They all will come ...
