Born as Eric Blair in India in 1903, George Orwell was a sickly
child who was sent away to boarding school at age eight. Later he
won a scholarship to Eton, where he was not a good student and
earned a reputation as a rebel. Following Eton, he returned to
Burma as a police officer, deliberately postponing his dream of
becoming a writer. Orwell moved to Paris in 1928. He was concerned
with the plight of the poor and was determined to find his own
literary voice and themes. In the following years, he traveled and
lived among the poor and unemployed. Orwell published several books
and novels about his experiences, but success and recognition
seemed slow in coming. In England, Orwell became known as an angry
political writer and crusader for the left. He stood up for his
convictions and fought in the Spanish Civil War, despite ill
health. After this disillusioning experience, Orwell became an
enemy of any form of totalitarianism. He tried to do his part for
England under the Nazi siege through his journalism and broadcast
scripts. Orwell completed Animal Farm during the war but was unable
to find a publisher until the war was over. After the book s
enormous success in 1946, Orwell planned another novel set in the
future ina totalitarian society. Writing from his house on the
island of Jura in the Scottish Hebrides, he created the story of
Winston Smith, who lived in a world where Big Brother was always
watching. This was his masterpiece, Nineteen Eighty-Four. Orwell
died soon after its publication, but not before witnessing its
success. In a special epilogue, Ferrell deals with Orwell s impact
as a political moralist and the way in which the year 1984 has come
to stand as a fearful symbol."
When Aung San Suu Kyi returned to her native Burma to tend to her
ailing mother, no one could have known that, within a few months,
the quiet woman would become a leader of her people. In 1989, after
Suu Kyi had worked only a year in Burma's renewed struggle for
democracy, the military government place her under house arrest.
The following years, while still confined to her home, Suu Kyi led
Burma's National League for Democracy to victory in a national
election. The military government refused to recognize the
election.
In 1991, still under arrest, Aung San Suu Kyi won the Nobel Peace
Prize. Upon her release from house arrest in 1995, thousands
flocked to Suu Kyi's home in Rangoon to hear her speak. There she
offered hope that democracy may yet blossom in Burma.
Whitney Stewart's biography, based on personal interviews with
Aung San Suu Kyi and those around her, illuminates the dangers
endured and the triumphs enjoyed by this inspiring woman, who has
been put back under house arrest in her homeland.
Additional materials by Burmese authors brings this fascinating
biography right up-to-date, including the Saffron Revolution of
2007.
A volume in Education Policy in Practice: Critical Cultural Studies
Series Editors Bradley A. U. Levinson, and Margaret Sutton, Indiana
University This book explores the diversity of American roles in
education for democracy cross-culturally, both within the United
States and around the world. Cross-cultural engagement in education
for democracy inevitably bears the impressions of each culture
involved and the dynamics among them. Even high-priority,
well-funded U.S. government programs are neither monolithic nor
deterministic in their own right, but are rather reshaped, adapted
to their contexts, and appropriated by their partners. These
partners are sometimes called ""recipients"", a problematic label
that gives the misleading impression that partners are relatively
passive in the overall process. The authors pay close attention to
the cultures, contexts, structures, people, and processes involved
in education for democracy. Woven throughout this volume's
qualitative studies are the notions that contacts between powers
and cultures are complex and situated, that agency matters, and
that local meanings play a critical role in the dynamic exchange of
peoples and ideas.The authors span an array of fields that concern
themselves with understanding languages, cultures, institutions,
and the broad horizon of the past that shapes the present: history,
anthropology, literacy studies, policy analysis, political science,
and journalism. This collection provides a rich sampling of the
diverse contexts and ways in which American ideas, practices, and
policies of education for democracy are spread, encountered,
appropriated, rejected, or embraced around the world. This volume
introduces concepts, identifies processes, notes obstacles and
challenges, and reveals common themes that can help us to
understand American influence on education for democracy more
clearly, wherever it occurs.
