Reframing Christian Education for a Global Generation
Author: Heesung Hwang
language: en
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
Release Date: 2024-09-24
This groundbreaking book serves as a case study, delving into the unique challenges faced by the “global generation” as they navigate the complexities of their hybrid identities. Heesung Hwang, drawing from her extensive experience as both a minister and theologian, presents a compelling vision for religious education inspired by the traditional Korean concept of madang. In this open space, faith communities gather to engage in communal interaction, fostering generative environments where all members are valued and their contributions esteemed. Through the lens of madang, Hwang invites readers to reimagine religious education as a holistic experience that transcends traditional boundaries, encompassing storytelling, conversation, play, and relationship-building. This transformative work challenges religious educators to embrace innovative approaches that honor the diverse cultural and religious backgrounds of young people, ultimately paving the way for redemptive communities that empower the next generation to shape new cultural and religious expressions within society. Reframing Christian Education for a Global Generation promises to ignite important conversations and inspire meaningful change within faith communities worldwide.
Black/Africana Communication Theory
Most Western-driven theories do not have a place in Black communicative experience, especially in Africa. Many scholars interested in articulating and interrogating Black communication scholarship are therefore at the crossroads of either having to use Western-driven theory to explain a Black communication dynamic, or have to use hypothetical rules to achieve their objectives, since they cannot find compelling Black communication theories to use as reference. Colonization and the African slave trade brought with it assimilationist tendencies that have dealt a serious blow on the cognition of most Blacks on the continent and abroad. As a result, their interpersonal as well as in-group dialogic communication had witnessed dramatic shifts. Black/Africana Communication Theory assembles skilled communicologists who propose uniquely Black-driven theories that stand the test of time. Throughout the volume’s fifteen chapters theories including but not limited to Afrocentricity, Afro-Cultural Mulatto, Venerative Speech Theory, Africana Symbolic Contextualism Theory, HaramBuntu-Government-Diaspora Communications Theory, Consciencist Communication Theory and Racial Democracy Effect Theory are introduced and discussed.
Theory Across Disciplines
Author: Jeffrey R. Di Leo

Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
Release Date: 2025-08-07
Surveying the extraordinary scope of contemporary theory, Jeffrey R. Di Leo brings together contributors from around the world to speak to the ways in which theoretical concerns from a variety of disciplines operate within their respective fields of concern. Contemporary theory is a multi- and inter-disciplinary endeavour that operates within and among the humanities, the social sciences, and many of the professions. In addition to its now somewhat more standard-fare work in these areas, it has also made substantial inroads into the natural sciences and the formal sciences. To be sure, more disciplines from across the academy have integrated theory into their practice than at any other time in history. Di Leo and his fellow contributors survey the workings of contemporary theory within and among the humanities, sciences, and professions, including contributions on literary studies, film studies, gender studies, visual art, law, biology and geology. They bring together distinguished theorists whose work spans the academy to speak to the ways in which theoretical concerns from a variety of disciplines work within their respective fields of concern.
