Hongyu Wang
R1,261 Discovery Miles 12 610 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

In current global politics, which positions China as a competitor to American leadership, in-depth understandings of transnational mutual engagement are much needed for cultivating nonviolent relations. Exploring American and Chinese professors' experiences at the intersection of the individual, society, and history, and weaving the autobiographical and the global, this book furthers understanding of their cross-cultural personal awareness and educational work at universities in both countries. While focusing on life histories, it also draws on both American and Chinese intellectual traditions such as American nonviolence activism, Taoism, and Buddhism to formulate a vision of nonviolence in curriculum studies. Centering cross-cultural education and pedagogy about, for, and through nonviolence, this volume contributes to internationalizing curriculum studies and introduces curriculum theorizing at the level of higher education. Hongyu Wang brings together stories, dialogues, and juxtapositions of cross-cultural pathways and pedagogies in a powerful case for theorizing and performing nonviolence education as visionary work in the internationalization of curriculum studies.

Cross-Cultural Studies in Curriculum - Eastern Thought, Educational Insights (Paperback): Claudia Eppert, Hongyu Wang Cross-Cultural Studies in Curriculum - Eastern Thought, Educational Insights (Paperback)
Claudia Eppert, Hongyu Wang
R1,585 Discovery Miles 15 850 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

This volume broadens the horizon of educational research in North America by introducing a comprehensive dialogue between Eastern and Western philosophies and perspectives on the subject of curriculum theory and practice. It is a very timely work in light of the progressively globalized nature of education and educational studies and the increasingly widespread attunement to Eastern educational theories in the West.
By introducing Eastern perspectives, this book questions taken-for-granted thinking in Western educational thought about the foundations of teaching and learning, curriculum theory, educational policy, and educational issues such as teaching for social justice, service-learning initiatives, human rights and environmental education, and the teaching of content area subjects. It provides an important opportunity for scholars from different countries and different disciplines to establish a solid yet accessible foundation of East-West inquiry that furthers the scope and depth of curriculum studies and to disseminate the insights from this book in the venues in which they work.
Researchers, faculty, and graduate students in the fields of curriculum theory, curriculum and instruction, educational foundations, philosophy of education, international/comparative education, and multicultural educational studies will welcome this book. It is appropriate as a text for upper-level courses in these areas.

New York, Bern, Berlin, Bruxelles, Frankfurt/M., Oxford, Wien. The Louisiana State University (LSU) Conference on the internationalization of curriculum studies was held April 27-30, 2000.

The Call from the Stranger on a Journey Home - Curriculum in a Third Space (Paperback): Hongyu Wang The Call from the Stranger on a Journey Home - Curriculum in a Third Space (Paperback)
Hongyu Wang
R866 Discovery Miles 8 660 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

This book is a cross-cultural, gendered study of both self and curriculum. Initiating a conversation between and among Michel Foucault, Confucius, and Julia Kristeva, it searches for a new (third) cultural and psychic space of transformation and creativity. Weaving together philosophy, psychoanalysis, and autobiography through lived experiences of curriculum, it calls for new configurations of subjectivity at the intersection of culture and gender, through the meeting between selfhood and the human psyche, in the dynamics of the semiotic and the symbolic, and through the interaction between the Western subject and the Chinese self. These multiple layers of inquiry provide unique perspectives for readers who are interested in curriculum theory, feminist analysis, philosophy of education, or East/West dialogue.

Hongyu Wang
R2,812 Discovery Miles 28 120 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Creativity in the West is often perceived as "cutting edge" and "ground-breaking" in a singular act of giving birth to the new. However, to what degree has this model of breaking away from others and the world contributed to the current crisis in education, society, and ecology even before the tragic COVID-19 pandemic and responses to it? How can our reimagining of creativity contribute to the mutual flourishing of humanity and of relations between humans and the planet? Daoist creativity, based upon relationality and interdependence, has much to offer to today's curriculum as a complicated conversation to sustain life and renew the world. Integrative, emergent, embodied, co-creative, and ecological, Daoist creativity has a built-in opening to difference through the organic relationality of Yin/Yang dynamics. This book focuses on one essential thread in Daoism-integrative creativity through organic relationality-and weaves its interplay with Western thought through multiple and intertwined dimensions of curriculum. Exploring Dao as dynamic and setting creative curriculum in motion, this book juxtaposes the notion of Wuwei and self-organization to conceptualize emergent classroom dynamics, and re-envisions the inner landscape of education through negotiating dialogues between the Jungian psyche and Daoist dynamics. Further, it explores gendered implications of Daoism to interact with feminism and formulates the pursuit of inner and outer peace through creative harmony to inform nonviolence curriculum. Synthesizing cross-cultural insights and wisdom, it provides an in-depth and intuitive understanding of the interactions between Daoist and Western creativity and elaborates a curriculum of integrative creativity for students, teachers, and their educational community. Let us all attend to the urgent call for individual and collective awakenings and for creativity that connects.

Hongyu Wang
R1,958 Discovery Miles 19 580 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

From the Parade Child to the King of Chaos depicts the pedagogical life history of an extraordinary teacher educator and internationally renowned curriculum scholar, William E. Doll, Jr. It explores how his life experiences have contributed to the formation and transformation of a celebrated teacher educator. From the child who spontaneously led a parade to the king of chaos who embraces complexity in education, complicated tales of Doll's journey through his childhood, youth, and decades of teaching in schools and in teacher education are situated in the historical, intellectual, and cultural context of American education. Seven themes are interwoven in Doll's life, thought, and teaching: pedagogy of play, pedagogy of perturbation, pedagogy of presence, pedagogy of patterns, pedagogy of passion, pedagogy of peace, and pedagogy of participation. Based upon rich data collected over six years, this book demonstrates methodological creativity in integrating multiple sources and lenses. Profoundly moving, humorous, and inspirational, it is a much-needed text for undergraduate and graduate courses in teacher education, curriculum studies, theory and practice of teaching and learning, life history studies, chaos and complexity theory, and postmodernism.

Dans l'affaire publique, La procedure avant jugement se constitue par le declenchement du pouvoir de poursuite, l'exercice des activites de poursuites ainsi que de la defense. Par rapport a l' histoire du developpement du proces penal, la procedure avant jugement est un produit indubitable emanant les activites de poursuite. Vu le role de loi inherente du proces penal, la procedure avant jugement entre deux systemes legaux fait apparaitre une fusion et une absorption mutuelles. Dans cette procedure, les organes de poursuites d'Etat doivent faire souvent une enquete, recueillir les preuves criminelles et depister l'auteur puis prendre une decision, il s'agit donc de la garantie du droit des parties et du suspect, mais aussi de l' installation du pouvoir des organes judiciaires, par consequent, au cours du proces penal, la procedure avant jugement possede une place importante.Par cette etude comparative, on peut apercevoir que, etant donne la difference d'histoire, la procedure avant la phase de jugement entre la France et la Chine a montre, avec chaque pays, son propre caractere dans tous les aspects etudies.
