The International Journal of Critical Diversity Studies addresses the key problematic of the construction of difference within intersecting, asymmetrical power relations. It brings together an integrated critique of hierarchical relations of privilege, domination and oppression on all axes of difference, with a particular focus on the normative orders of coloniality/modernity. A closely-knit, interdependent world struggling with the realities of heterogeneity calls for critical approaches to difference that can identify enduring and emerging processes of Othering, and articulate forms and means by which exclusion and hierarchical arrangements can be resisted and reframed. The journal therefore provides a decolonial anti-disciplinary intellectual forum in which plural, just, and ethical sociological imaginations can be cultivated and expanded.

"This edited volume uses an interdisciplinary approach to art and design that not only reframes but also repositions agendas and actions to address fragmented global systems. Contributors explore the pluriverse of art and design through epistemological and methodological considerations. What kinds of sustainable ways are there for knowledge transfer, supporting plural agendas, finding novel ways for unsettling conversations, unlearning and learning and challenging power structures with marginalised groups and contexts through art and design? The main themes of the book are art and design methods, epistemologies and practices that provide critical, interdisciplinary, pluriversal and decolonial considerations. The book challenges the domination of the white logic of art and design and shifts away from the Anglo-European one-world system towards the pluriverse. The book will be of interest to scholars working in art history, visual studies, arts-based research, and design studies"-- Provided by publisher.

This book critically engages with dominant ideas of cultural homogeneity in the Nordic countries and contests the notion of homogeneity as a crucial determinant of social cohesion and societal security. Showing how national identities in the Nordic region have developed historically around notions of cultural and racial homogeneity, it exposes the varied histories of migration and the longstanding presence of ethnic minorities and indigenous people in the region that are ignored in dominant narratives. With attention to the implications of notions of homogeneity for the everyday lives of migrants and racialised minorities in the region, as well as the increasing securitisation of those perceived not to be part of the homogenous nation, this volume provides detailed analyses of how welfare state policies, media, and authorities seek to manage and govern cultural, religious, and racial differences. With studies of national minorities, indigenous people and migrants in the analysis of homogeneity and difference, it sheds light on the agency of minorities and the intertwining of securitisation policies with notions of culture, race, and religion in the government of difference. As such it will appeal to scholars and students in social sciences and humanities with interests in race and ethnicity, migration, postcolonialism, Nordic studies, multiculturalism, citizenship, and belonging.

Skillingsvisene er en av de betydeligste kulturskattene våre forfedre og -mødre har etterlatt seg. Visene ble trykt i skillings- trykk - små, billige sanghefter med en håndfull vers på rim, som sirkulerte i Norge i perioden 1550 til 1950. Disse sangene er den aller eldste trykte litteraturen som fins her til lands, og i flere hundre år var det også den mest populære. Men frem til nå har skillingsvisene langt på vei vært forbigått i forskningen. I denne boken har 17 forskere bidratt til å bringe skillingsvisene frem fra forglemmelsens mørke. Hva handlet skillingsvisene om, hvem skrev dem, hvordan ble de solgt og sunget, og hva betydde de for menneskene som lyttet til dem? Boken belyser emnemangfoldet i skillingsvisene - fra dommedag, naturkatastrofer og mord, til kjærlighet, sladder og skøyteløp. Skillingsvisene i Norge 1550-1950 er den første norske vitenskapelige antologien om skillingstrykk. Den følges av den frittstående antologien Arven fra skillingsvisene. Fra en sal på hospitalet til en sofa fra IKEA av Siv Gøril Brandtzæg og Bjarne Markussen (red.).

Introducing the concept of cultural humility, this guide offers a new perspective to the field of art therapy practice and theory. It explores cultural humility in art therapy research and assessment, clinical and community-based practice, social justice, self-care and pedagogy. The notion of cultural humility addresses the power differential and encourages individuals and institutions to examine privilege within social constructs. It emphasizes self-reflection and the ability of knowing one's self in order to allow the art therapist to appropriately interact with their client, whilst being mindful of their own bias, assumptions and beliefs. Each chapter ends with a reflective exercise. Offering practical guidance to this increasingly recognised concept, Cultural Humility in Art Therapy is essential to those wanting to move toward an unbiased social justice.
