Education, Extremism and Terrorism
Michele Bollinger lives in Washington, D.C. where she teaches high school social studies.
What Should be Taught in Citizenship Education and Why
In the great tradition of Howard Zinn, 101 Real Changemakers offers a “peoples’ history” version of the individuals who have shaped our country for middle school students. In the place of founding fathers, presidents, and titans of industry, are profiles of those who courageously fought for social justice in America: Tecumseh, Harriet Tubman, Mark Twain, César Chávez, Rachel Carson, Harvey Milk, Henry Wallace, and many more. 101 Real Changemakers aims to provide young students with new ways of understanding how history is written and made. $29.95 Pb, ISBN 9781608461561, NZRP$38.00 Publish March 2012, 210 pages Haymarket Books Education

This book considers whether the issues of extremism and terrorism should be addressed and taught in schools. In England, the issue of extremism and terrorism has recently been introduced within various aspects of the curriculum at secondary level. Little has been said about the justification of including these issues and little has been said about how such subjects should be broached within school walls. This text redresses this void and explores and critiques various justifications used for why these issues should be addressed in schools. $39.00 Pb, ISBN 9781441105158, NZRP$49.00 Publish March 2012, 128 pages Continuum Quantity Education

Reconceiving Medical Ethics
Cognitive Psychology
Christopher Cowley, University College Dublin, Ireland.
Matthew Coxon, York St John University, UK.
This volume of original work comprises a modest challenge, sometimes direct, sometimes implicit, to the mainstream Anglo-American conception of the discipline of medical ethics. It does so not by trying to fill the gaps with exotic minority interest topics, but by re-examining some of the fundamental assumptions of the familiar philosophical arguments, and some of the basic situations that generate the issues. The authors show that concepts such as the body, suffering and consent - and the role such concepts play within patients’ lives - are much more complicated than the AngloAmerican mainstream appreciates. $150.00 Hb, ISBN 9781441123381, NZRP$189.00 Publish March 2012, 288 pages Continuum Philosophy Quantity

How has South Korea’s development influenced and been influenced by world events? The neoGramscian school theorises that world history reveals specific periods of hegemonic stability, but this new account of Korean development demonstrates that this speculation cannot be fully justified. Through making creative links between forms of state, education programmes, labour relations and the global climate throughout a series of ‘historical blocs’ such as the period of Japanese colonisation, Phoebe Moore covers the story of South Korean development. $58.00 Pb, ISBN 9781780760339, NZRP$73.00 Publish March 2012, 256 pages Quantity I.B.Tauris Publishers Politics
