Etiske dilemmaer og debatter

With debates about the decriminalization of drugs on the rise, an exploration of drug maps is long overdue. Narcotic Cities traces the complex entanglements of drugs, institutions, activities, and the way they are represented with spaces and places, shedding new light on our cities. Through the medium of graphic essays, this book explores urban stories, as well as the histories, policies, communities, digital spaces, and pleasures associated with drugs, gathering together more than forty contributors working with Geographic Information Systems, hand drawings, satellite images, and memories. By experimenting with different graphic languages, this volume assembles a rich mosaic of multi-scalar urban perspectives on drugs, sharing little-known knowledge as well as reflections on the pitfalls, omissions, and failures of drug cartographies.

Kender du følgende situationer? · Elever råber kønnede skældsord til hinanden i frikvarteret · Elever bliver drillet med, at de har to fædre eller to mødre · Skolen planlægger kønnede aktiviteter for forældre og elever, f.eks. mande-/drengetur med bål i skoven og shopping for kvinderne/pigerne. Der er i disse år et stort fokus på spørgsmål relateret til køn og LGBTQ+, og det fylder meget i unge menneskers liv. Samtidig er det et faktum, at LGBTQ+ elever i høj grad mistrives i skolen og oplever skolen som et utrygt sted. Selvom du har en intention om at inddrage mangfoldighed, køn og seksualitet i din pædagogiske praksis, kan du sikkert være i tvivl om, hvordan du skal gribe det an. LGBTQ+ i skolen giver dig som lærer eller skolepædagog inspiration til at møde og støtte LGBTQ+ elever i skolen. Bogen hjælper dig til at få øje på normer, mønstre og sammenhænge, som du måske ikke har været opmærksom på før, og her kan du finde viden, konkrete eksempler og forløb, der gør det nemmere at tænke køn og seksualitet ind i skolens hverdag. Bogen er tænkt som en brugsbog om praksis til praksis og bidrager med flere perspektiver på køn, seksualitet og normer i skolen – ikke mindst i forhold til undervisning og dialog.

Through examination of the death penalty in literature, Aaron Aquilina contests Heidegger's concept of 'being-towards-death' and proposes a new understanding of the political and philosophical subject.Dickens, Nabokov, Hugo, Sophocles and many others explore capital punishment in their works, from Antigone to Invitation to a Beheading. Using these varied case studies, Aquilina demonstrates how they all highlight two aspects of the experience. First, they uncover a particular state of being, or more precisely non-being, that comes with a death sentence, and, second, they reveal how this state exists beyond death row, as sovereignty and alterity are by no means confined to a prison cell.In contrast to Heidegger's being-towards-death, which individualizes the subject - only I can die my own death, supposedly - this book argues that, when condemned to death, the self and death collide, putting under erasure the category of subjectivity itself. Be it death row or not, when the supposed futurity of death is brought into the here and now, we encounter what Aquilina calls 'relational death'. Living on with death severs the subject's relation to itself, the other and political sociality as a whole, rendering the human less a named and recognizable 'being' than an anonymous 'living corpse', a human thing. In a sustained engagement with Blanchot, Levinas, Hegel, Agamben and Derrida, The Ontology of Death articulates a new theory of the subject, beyond political subjectivity defined by sovereignty and beyond the Heideggerian notion of ontological selfhood.

Who are you, when you come from two places? Ennatu Domingo was adopted from Ethiopia at the age of seven and transplanted to Barcelona where she learned to flourish. But she never forgot her nomadic childhood in the mountains and meadows of Gondar, near the northern border with Eritrea. Having witnessed the hardships of Ethiopian rural women at an early age, she was inspired to study the patriarchal structures that underpinned her individual experiences, both in Europe and in contemporary Ethiopia. She has lived in Kenya, Belgium and the UK, and has traveled across five continents, but keeps returning to the country of her childhood, to re-construct a lost identity guided by the echo of her first language Amharic and the weight of a rich cultural heritage. Torn between forgetting and remembering, Ennatu explores the dilemma of international adoptees and migrant kids and their quest for belonging in a book destined to be a classic of its genre.

Public Morality and the Culture Wars: The Triple Divide is an academically rigorous and strictly non-polemical analysis of the intellectual and ideological conflicts at the heart of the 'culture wars'.

Without a moment's pause, we share our most intimate thoughts with trillion-dollar tech companies. Their algorithms categorize us and jump to conclusions about who we are. They even shape our everyday thoughts and actions - from who we date to how we vote. But this is just the latest front in an age-old struggle.Part history and part manifesto, Freedom to Think charts the history and importance of our most basic human right: freedom of thought. From Galileo to Nudge Theory to Alexa, human rights lawyer Susie Alegre explores how the powerful have always sought to get inside our heads, influence how we think and shape what we buy. Providing a bold new framework to understand how our agency is being gradually undermined, Freedom to Think is a ground-breaking and vital charter for taking back our humanity and safeguarding our reason.

Fordi verden er analog og mennesket er smukt!Analogiseringsstyrelsen blev etableret i 2018 som en satirisk, men også dybt seriøst ment ’modinstitution’ til Digitaliseringsstyrelsen (Finansministeriets apparat til at gøre Danmark digitalt). I denne bog kan du læse deres arbejdsdokumenter, der helt sikkert vil motionere dine smilebånd, men også aktivere de små grå – pointen er, at digitaliseringen ikke er en naturkraft; den er noget, vores politikere har valgt. Og du vælger dem. Ligesom du også selv vælger, hvornår og hvor meget du har behov for at offline dit liv.”En kompromisløs beskrivelse af digitaliseringens tilstand set fra et borgerperspektiv,” skriver professor Brit Ross Winthereik i sit forord.

This book discusses undercover reporting, betrayal and deception in journalism, addressing the ethical issues encountered by professionals when deception is involved and providing an explanation of how high-profile cases have developed.Carson and Muller begin by examining how philosophical theories which form the basis of contemporary ethical codes for journalists, bear upon undercover reporting and questions of deception in the digital age. Drawing upon case studies such as Al Jazeera's undercover operation against the National Rifle Association in the US and the One Nation political party in Australia, and Britain's Channel 4 infiltration of Cambridge Analytica, this book goes on to define and discuss the ethical concepts behind deception and betrayal and lays out an original ethical framework for undercover journalists facing related challenges in their work.Undercover Reporting, Deception, and Betrayal in Journalism is an important research text for students and academics in journalism and media studies.

Há uma terrível confusão entre os casais cristãos, que, devido à influência antinatalista do mundo, se casam acreditando que devem "se importar" em ter filhos e, como não querem ofender a Deus, escolhem um método "natural" para faça isso. A verdade é que a Igreja aprova o uso de métodos naturais desde que haja uma razão proporcionalmente séria para espaçar os nascimentos e que não se baseie no egoísmo. O autor analisa quais poderiam ser esses motivos graves.

In the programme for an exhibition in Stockholm in 1968, the American pop art pioneer wrote: 'In the future, everyone will be world-famous for 15 minutes.' What struck many at the time as an outlandish prediction is in danger of being undercut by reality in the third decade of the 21st Century. On TikTok, anyone with a mobile phone can become known to hundreds of millions of people for a matter of seconds and then slip back into anonymity. True, a run of successful self-shot videos can propel an individual from an everyday life into that of a multi-millionaire. Unlike in Warhol's age, however, the metamorphosis from ordinariness to fame occurs not through the multiple media channels of Andy Warhol's age, but through a single, super-fast, ever-mutating social media app. Which is ultimately owned in China and ruled over by an inscrutable algorithm.Buy the book to carry on reading

An explosive behind-the-scenes look at Donald Trump's final months in office and how the COVID crisis response was a carefully crafted plan to ruin him.In January 2020, Donald Trump was on the fast track to an easy re-election. While his first two years had been stymied by House Speaker Paul Ryan, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, and the Democrats, his third year had been one of remarkable success. The United States had low unemployment and was making strides across the globe. The president's rallies were well-attended, and he was being projected to win four hundred electoral votes and about forty-five states. Then came COVID-19.Dr. Paul Elias Alexander, former Senior Advisor to COVID Pandemic policy in the US government for President Trump and former COVID Pandemic evidence-synthesis advisor to WHO-PAHO, was on the frontlines to watch how Trump's world, and his reelection hopes, slowly collapsed leading up to November 2020-due to the CDC, NIH, and WHO conspiring to overthrow him with the worst response possible to the COVID crisis.Supported by emails and documents, career epidemiologist Alexander and New York Times-bestselling author Kent Heckenlively, JD, will not only show proof of a presidential takedown, but also of the personal vendetta of the CDC and HHS against Alexander himself. From unnecessary lockdowns, school closures, and mask mandates to the dismissal of effective treatments like hydroxychloroquine, ivermectin, and vitamin D and even threats against President Trump and his family, Presidential Takedown: How Anthony Fauci, the CDC, NIH, and the WHO Conspired to Overthrow President Trump is the inside story of what really happened from those first COVID-19 reports to President Trump's "loss" in November.
