Hva er pedagogikk i dagens samfunn? Hvordan kan pedagogisk kunnskap bidra til et økt mangfold i arbeid rettet mot oppvekst, utdanning og arbeidsliv? Hvorfor er pedagogikk så viktig for utvikling og læring for barn, unge og voksne? Denne boken handler om pedagogisk mangfold, og den presenterer pedagogikk ut fra sosiologisk, antropologisk, filosofisk, didaktisk, spesialpedagogisk, psykologisk og historisk perspektiv. Forfatterne fremhever forholdet mellom utdanning og samfunn og viser at livet utenfor skolen har innflytelse på hvem som lærer, og hva som læres. Boken inneholder redskaper, modeller og begreper til å forstå og analysere utdanningserfaringer og til å styrke pedagogers forståelse og ferdigheter for å kunne skape gode læringsprosesser. Målgruppen for boken er studenter i pedagogikk på disiplin- og profesjonsstudier på bachelor- og masternivå. Boken vil også kunne være aktuell for alle som arbeider med læring og formidling i utdanning og arbeidsliv. Den vil derfor også kunne appellere til ansatte i barnehage, grunnskole, videregående skole og ansatte innenfor ulike helseinstitusjoner. Bokens redaktører er Vivian D. Haugen og Gerd Stølen. Øvrige bidragsytere er Jarle Bakke, Kristin Emilie W. Bjørndal, Unn-Doris K. Bæck, Richard Haugen, Andrew Kristiansen, Gregor Maxwell, Gry Paulgaard, Tone Skinningsrud, Randi Skjelmo, Tomas Stølen og Vidar Vambheim.

Today it is usually not long before a problem gets expressed as a human rights issue. Indeed, human rights law continues to gain increasing attention internationally, and must move quickly in order to keep up with a social world that changes so rapidly.This Very Short Introduction, in its second edition, brings the issue of human rights up to date, considering the current controversies surrounding the movement. Discussing torture and arbitrary detention in the context of counter terrorism, Andrew Clapham also considers new challenges to human rights in the context of privacy, equality and the right to health. Looking at the philosophical justification for rights, the historical origins of human rights and how they are formed in law,Clapham explains what our human rights actually are, what they might be, and where the human rights movement is heading. ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area. These pocket-sized books are the perfect way to get ahead in a new subject quickly. Our expert authors combine facts, analysis, perspective, new ideas, and enthusiasm to make interesting and challenging topics highly readable.

Andrew Kristiansen presenterer leseren for fenomenet anerkjennelse, og utdyper hvorfor anerkjennelse er så viktig i forhold til unge menneskers selvutvikling, opplevelse av rettferdighet og utvikling av identitet. Boken bringer sammen psykologiske, sosiologiske og filosofiske perspektiver, og utfordrer rådende oppfatninger av anerkjennelse innenfor utdanningsfeltet. Utdanningssystemet stiller bestemte krav og gir noen stemmer forrang fremfor andre, slik at mange unge ikke opplever å bli sett eller hørt. Ved hjelp av anerkjennelse kan læreren gjøre disse mer synlige og la deres stemmer bli hørt. Anerkjennelse fjerner ikke i seg selv grunnlaget for urettmessige forskjeller og ulikheter eller krenkelser, men vil bidra til å gjøre det mer håndterlig. Boken retter seg mot alle som har, eller forbereder seg på å få, oppdragelses- og opplæringsansvar for barn og ungdom i barnehagen, skolen og innen høyere utdanning. Andrew Kristiansen er førsteamanuensis i pedagogikk ved Institutt for lærerutdanning og pedagogikk ved Universitetet i Tromsø.

THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER "Welcome to the family," Nina Winchester says as I shake her elegant, manicured hand. I smile politely, gazing around the marble hallway. Working here is my last chance to start fresh. I can pretend to be whoever I like. But I'll soon learn that the Winchesters' secrets are far more dangerous than my own . . . Every day I clean the Winchesters' beautiful house top to bottom. I collect their daughter from school. And I cook a delicious meal for the whole family before heading up to eat alone in my tiny room on the top floor. I try to ignore how Nina makes a mess just to watch me clean it up. How she tells strange lies about her own daughter. And how her husband Andrew seems more broken every day. But as I look into Andrew's handsome brown eyes, so full of pain, it's hard not to imagine what it would be like to live Nina's life. The walk-in closet, the fancy car, the perfect husband. I only try on one of Nina's pristine white dresses once. Just to see what it's like. But she soon finds out... and by the time I realize my attic bedroom door only locks from the outside, it's far too late. But I reassure myself: the Winchesters don't know who I really am. They don't know what I'm capable of . . .

Romanens handling er satt til Moskva på 1920-tallet, rettere sagt til den 21. juni 1922. Grev Alexander Rostov - mottaker av Saint Andrew-ordenen, medlem av Jockey-klubben og 'Master' i den edle jaktkunst - blir eskortert ut av Kreml, over den Røde Plass og gjennom de Hotel Metropols elegante svingdører. Ansett som en uforbederlig aristokrat av et bolsjevikisk tribunal, dømmes greven til husarrest på livstid. I et av byens flotteste hoteller tilbringer han de neste tiårene i et lite loftsrom, som passiv tilskuer de dramatiske i endringene i Russland. I kontrasten mellom grevens tilbaketrukne tilværelse og de omkalfatrende hendelsene på utsiden av hotellet, har Towles skapt et elegant språklig univers fylt av humor og refleksjoner over tid, historie og samfunn.

Regnet av mange som hovedverket til Jens Bjørneboe. Gjennom tre frittstående, men tematisk beslektede romaner gir Bjørneboe nærgående studier av menneskets ulvenatur. I Frihetens øyeblikk får leseren følge en rettstjener og hans notater fra et oppsiktsvekkende omstreiferliv, i Kruttårnet en historisk gjennomgang av den hvite manns ødeleggelser, og til slutt kommer nedtegnelsene til «protokollføreren», som registrerer den ondskap som har fulgt menneskeheten inn i vår egen tid, i Stillheten.Den sydende sterke romantrilogien er her samlet i ett bind. «Tre bøker vil bli stående fra etterkrigstidens norske litteratur: Frihetens øyeblikk, Kruttårnet og Stillheten.»Jan Andrew Nilsen, VGOm Jens Bjørneboe på wikipediaUtdypningsartikkel på Store norske leksikonForfattersider på dagbladet.no
