By foregrounding the voices and experiences of scholars from the
Global South who have migrated to institutions in the Global North,
this volume theorizes the "third space" as a unique, rich, and
generative position in the Western academy. Global South Scholars
in the Western Academy engages a range of critical methodologies to
explore the challenges that Global South scholars have faced in
establishing themselves in academic settings in the Global North.
The text identifies the unique position that scholars have come to
adopt "in-between" North and South and theorizes this positionality
as a "third space", which is carved out by academics negotiating
personal, professional, and cultural belonging. This liminal
subject position, enriched by experiences of migration,
racialization, poverty, and difference, is shown to drive
knowledge-production and justice-orientated approaches in the
academy. This book provides a new and overdue perspective on the
experiences and contributions of Global South scholars in the
academy. It will be of interest to academics, researchers, and
scholars with an interest in critical theory, indigenous and
multicultural education, the sociology of education, and higher
education.
The Haldanes have been in Scotland for over 800 years, and their
story illustrates many of the defining themes of Scotland's
history. Haldanes played significant roles in the Bruce war of
independence, the political upheavals which accompanied the
establishment of the Stewart dynasty, the religious struggles of
the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, the Darien Scheme and the
Act of Union, the Jacobite rebellions, the development of the East
India Company, and in the theological controversies of the
nineteenth century. In the twentieth century, Haldanes are still to
be found in the public eye with some influence on matters of
national significance. In this book, Neil Stacy follows the
fortunes of the family, highlighting the extraordinary contribution
they have made in so many areas as well as uncovering some of the
more colourful episodes in the family's history, such as
long-buried secrets of romance in the teeth of parental opposition,
a military career threatened by a youthful liaison with a
blackmailing barmaid, and an attempt to run a temperance hotel in
the western Highlands which ended in high farce.
Brady Corbet directs this war drama loosely based on Jean-Paul
Sartre's short story. Tom Sweet stars as a young American boy
living with his parents in France just after the end of the Second
World War. As he witnesses his father (Liam Cunningham)'s part in
peace negotiations and the creation of the Treaty of Versailles,
the boy begins to develop an angry personality, having temper
outbursts at anyone who questions or challenges him. As his mother
(Bérénice Bejo) tries to control her son with love and affection,
it soon becomes clear that no amount of discipline can restrain
him. The cast also includes Yolande Moreau, Stacy Martin and Robert
Pattinson.
