Innovation or education? Creating spaces for appearance in initial teacher education
Education and innovation have always had a tension-filled relationship, with the latter historically associated with technological and economic novelties. It is small wonder that in these late capitalist times innovation has been claimed and captured by market forces, a process which has also undermined Initial Teacher Education's fundamental role in supporting plurality and educational action. By bringing Hannah Arendt's vita activa in conversat…
Contraception and Modern Ireland
Fighting for Control
The Educator, Interrupted
Emerging from the suggestion that initial teacher education in Ireland shift to a version of the clinical school model, I ask how can we think about the in-school experience of student teachers in terms of those capabilities which promote subjectivity? In this paper I share a philosophical perspective on the educational value of the in-school experience during initial teacher education. I suggest that the university’s presence in school ought to …
The many meanings of aborto
This article sheds light on an important facet of the history of abortion in Mexico: that is, moments in which doctors and priests reconciled the termination of pregnancy with religious ideologies, thus refracting the concept of abortion through a Catholic lens at different points in time. By underscoring ambivalences in the definition, implementation, and criminalization of abortive procedures, the research demonstrates that Mexican physicians p…
Out of Love for Any Thing? A Response to Vlieghe and Zamojski on Some Pedagogical Problems with an Object-Oriented ‘Educational Love’
In this paper we consider some of the problems inherent in the attempt to define and circumscribe an exclusively ‘educational love’, as presented by Joris Vlieghe and Piotr Zamojski in a recent paper for this journal. In seeking to move beyond the confusing interpersonal relations involved in student-centred discourses on teaching, the authors aim to articulate an ‘educational love’ that is more oriented towards subject matter than the student su…
Resonance, Response, Renewal
For Richard Rorty as well as Stanley Cavell, the realm of the literary carries particular educational force. Literature holds the potential to lead the insensitive and the superficial towards the responsive and the detailed. Literature prompts an interrogation of everyday expressions and the felt meanings we decide to invest or not to invest within them. In this paper, we draw on the work of Rorty and Cavell to highlight the significance of liter…
Risky Subjectivities in Philip Pullman’s Northern Lights
Genetic structure of the Utah Mormons
Kinship estimates based on shared proportions of European ancestry are constructed for 284 Utah males born in eight geographic subdivisions. These "ancestral kinship" estimates are compared with kinship coefficients based on DNA polymorphisms, blood groups, genealogies, isonymy, and migration matrices. At the subdivision level, a high correlation is observed between ancestral kinship and kinship based on isonymy. Comparing individuals, a signific…
Genetic structure of the Utah Mormons
Founder effect and genetic disease in Sottunga, Finland
Pedigree data are analyzed in order to determine the factors responsible for the high frequencies of certain genetic disorders in an isolated Swedish‐speaking population of Finland's Å land archipelago. The founders of Sottunga are identified, and the genetic contributions of each founder to descending birth cohorts are estimated. Founders born before 1700 have far more descendants in the contemporary gene pool than do more recent founders. Howev…
Inbreeding and genetic disease in Sottunga, Finland
The contribution of inbreeding to the prevalence of recessive genetic diseases in the Åland Island parish of Sottunga is investigated. Genealogical data for 3,030 individuals spanning up to 15 generations were used to estimate inbreeding. This small island community shows a low average inbreeding value of .0031 for the period 1725–1975. A cohort analysis shows that inbreeding increased from 1750 to 1900, when maximum inbreeding for those born in …
