Education and Conflict is a critical review of education in an international context. Based on the author's extensive research and experience of education in several areas afflicted by conflict, the book explores the relationship between schooling and social conflict and looks at conflict internal to schools. It posits a direct link between the ethos of a school and the attitudes of future citizens towards 'others'. It also looks at the nature and purpose of peace education and war education, and addresses the role of gender and masculinity. In five lucid, vigorously argued sections, the author brings this thought-provoking and original piece of work to life by: * Setting out the terms of the debate, defining conflict and peace and outlining the relevant aspects of complexity theory for education * Exploring the sources of conflict and their relations to schooling in terms of gender/masculinity, pluralism, nationalism and identity * Focusing on the direct education/war interface * Examining educational responses to conflict * Highlighting conflict resolution within the school itself. This is the first time that so many aspects of conflict and education have been brought together in one sustained argument. With its crucial exposure of the currently culpable role of formal schooling in maintaining conflict, this book will be a powerful and essential read for educational policy makers, managers, teachers and researchers dealing with conflict in their own contexts.
This volume of new essays represents a collective, academic, and
activist effort to interpret German literature and culture in the
context of the international #MeToo movement, illustrating and
interrogating the ways that "rape cultures" persist. Responding to
the worldwide impact of the #MeToo movement, this volume
investigates not only the ubiquity of sexual abuse and sexual
violence but also the transhistorical and transnational failure to
hold perpetrators accountable. From a range of disciplines, the
collected essays engage current cultural and political discourses
about systemic sexism, feminist theory and practice, and
gender-based discrimination from an academic and activist
perspective. The focus on national cultures of German-speaking
Europe from the mid-eighteenth century to the present captures the
persistence of normalized and institutionalized sexism, reframed
through the lens of a contemporary political and social movement.
German #MeToo argues that sexual violence is not a universal human
constant. Rather, it is nurtured and sustained by the social,
political, cultural, legal, and economic fabric of specific
societies. The authors sustain and vary their exploration of
#MeToo-related issues through considerations of rape, prostitution,
sexual murder, the politics of consent, and victim-blaming as
enacted in literary works by canonical and marginalized authors,
the visual arts, the graphic novel, film, television, and theater.
The analysis of rape myths - of discourses and practices in German
history and culture that subtend and indemnify sexual violence - is
a central subject of this edited volume. Throughout, German #MeToo
challenges narratives of sex-based discrimination while emphasizing
the strategies of resistance and the importance of telling one's
own story.

guide for social workers on being a witness in care proceedings.
This book de-mystifies the court system explaining court structures
and procedures, roles and responsibilities and basic rules of

care proceedings and adoption. This second edition incorporates
recent changes including the Working Together to Safeguard Children
guidance for inter-agency working, the Children and Families Act
2014 and the Crime and Courts Act 2013 as well as the latest case
law. Checklists, charts and highlighted points allow for easy
reference, and illustrative case scenarios put the law into
context. This comprehensive and easy-to-use guide will be an
