Paperback. Condition: New. This collection of essays addresses twentieth-century historical and contemporary issues regarding children who are considered to be at risk. The essays explore the language of risk as it is used by the courts, the schools, governmental agencies, and child advocates, those who discover risks and create correctives for children who both need protection and threaten to disturb the social order. The tasks require an exploration of differing, often contradictory, concepts of the child and society that are embedded in public policy debates. Deepening the complexity of the problems, institutions to which we look for solutions are too often faced with conflicts that arise when the needs of the child are at variance with the needs of the institutions themselves. These dilemmas are central to understanding our failure to achieve adequate public policy solutions for children at risk.…

Hardcover. Condition: New. xiv, 208 pages : illustrations : 24 cm. Summary:Crossing Cultural Boundaries in East Asia and Beyond explores the personal complexities and ambiguities, and the successes and failures, of crossing borders and boundaries. While the focus is on East Asia, it universalizes cultural anxieties with comparative cases in Russia and the United States. The authors primarily engage the individual experiences of border-crossing, rather than more typically those of political or social groups located at territorial boundaries. Drawing on those individual experiences, this volume presents an array of attempts to negotiate the discomforts of crossing personal borders, and attends to the intimate experiences of border crossers, whether they are traveling to an unfamiliar cultural location or encountering the "other" in local settings such as the classroom or the coffee shop. CONTENTS: Loss, liberation, and laughter : reimagining the Perry Mission in recent Japanese popular culture / Andrew Elliott Boundaries in the cross-cultural interaction of tourism : a comparative study of early English-language tourism guidebooks on Kyoto / Daniel Milne Seeking the ideal identity : cosmopolitanism advocated by Japanese Americans / Mariko Mizuno Rendering "a service" yet "infected with a foreignness" : the cross-cultural experiences of Rockefeller public health fellows from China and Japan in the interwar period / Darwin H. Stapleton Making coffee, making space : coffee shops as sites of cultural encounter / Helena Grinshpun Puentes de la communidad : building bridges in an early childhood center / Donna Heckman Stapleton In their own words : Russian literary translators as actors on cultural borders / Elena Baibikov.…
