It is not an accident that American engineering is so disproportionately male and white; it took and takes work to create and sustain this situation. Engineering Manhood: Race and the Antebellum Virginia Military Institute examines the process by which engineers of the antebellum Virginia Military Institute cultivated whiteness, manhood, and other intersecting identities as essential to an engineering professional identity. VMI opened in 1839 to provide one of the earliest and most thorough engineering educations available in antebellum America. The officers of the school saw engineering work as intimately linked to being a particular type of person, one that excluded women or black men. This particular white manhood they crafted drew upon a growing middle-class culture. These precedents impacted engineering education broadly in this country and we continue to see their legacy today.

This volume contains the texts from the symposium on the occasion of the 10th Anniversary of the M.A. Programme Intercultural Theology. The contributions address the challenges and consequences of an intercultural approach in academics as well as in the churches and in society. Since globalisation has significantly changed the face of contemporary Christianity in the 21st century, the task of doing theology has become more complex. The cultural, geographic and denominational varieties of Christianity worldwide challenge the traditional Western face of academic Christian theology and demand new and global forms of theological thinking across lines. Intercultural Theology seeks to embrace these dynamics with a constructive dialogue, opening up new spaces of collaborative thinking and academic reflection.

Biographical note: Andreas Foitzik, Geschäftsführer »adis e.V.« – Antidiskriminierung, Empowerment, Praxisentwicklung Tübingen Lukas J. Hezel, freier Mitarbeiter Landeszentrale für politische Bildung Baden-Württemberg Long description: In dieser wissenschaftlich fundierten Einführung wird das Konzept der diskriminierungskritischen Schule skizziert. Zusammengedacht werden dabei die Themen Antidiskriminierung, Rechtsextremismus-Prävention und diskriminierungskritische Öffnung bzw. Inklusion. Damit antwortet das Buch unter anderem auf die aktuellen Herausforderungen, Seiteneinsteiger_innen an deutschen Schulen (vor allem Menschen mit Fluchterfahrung) eine gerechte Bildungsteilhabe zu ermöglichen, Inklusion wirkungsvoll umzusetzen und den demokratischen Auftrag von Schule zu erfüllen. Die Beiträge sind sehr praxisnah und eingängig aufbereitet, zahlreiche Fachgespräche bzw. -interviews mit Expert_innen aus Wissenschaft und Praxis integriert. Dabei werden sowohl die wissenschaftlichen Grundlagen dargestellt wie auch Brücken zur pädagogischen Praxis und zur Schulentwicklung geschlagen. Auch ergänzend zum »Praxisbuch Diskriminierungskritische Schule«.

In this book, French compares the "well-meaning" intensions of "diversity" in independent schools with the continued dominance of whiteness in these institutions. Using mixed methods and a Critical Race Theory frame, French argues that "diversity" serves only to strengthen the status quo of educational segregation between Black and White.
