Family Perspectives of University Reading Clinic/Literacy Lab Experiences
Family partnerships should be a central component of teacher preparation. Although research provides family engagement strategies, little research offers teacher educators guidance from the perspectives of families themselves. The purpose of this convergent mixed-method study was to begin to fill the void in the literature by investigating family perspectives of theirs and their children's experience in 10 reading clinic/literacy lab literacy spe…
John Boardman, A Classical Archaeologist’s Life
“A Classical Archaeologist’s Life: The Story so Far. An Autobiography”, autobiografia del celebre archeologo classico e professore John Boardman, si inserisce nell’ambito di “Archaeological Lives”, serie che da alcuni anni l’Archaeopress dedica alle biografie di archeologi e studiosi del passato. Il volume nasce in un primo momento – secondo quanto chiarito dall’autore nella nota introduttiva – come memoir per i familiari, e solo in seguito è s…
What the Farnesina Learned from R. Scott Appleby
At the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs (the “Farnesina”) a special program was created in order to deal with religions and international relations. In this context, the work of R. Scott Appleby soon became a point of reference, especially for the Policy Planning Unit under the direction of the Author. In a series of meetings and conferences with R. Scott Appleby, many useful ideas were discussed and analyzed in view of a more articulated appr…
"Sustainable International Relations. Pope Francis' Encyclical Laudato Si' and the Planetary Implications of "Integral Ecology
This paper analyzes the theoretical and pragmatic implications for international relations and world politics of the new holistic approach to climate change articulated by Pope Francis in the Encyclical Laudato Si', particularly through the notion of "integral ecology". It is not my intention to offer an exegesis of the Papal document. I will rather try to illustrate and discuss its planetary hermeneutics. I emphasize that the Encyclical's perspe…
The Concept of Periphery in Pope Francis' Discourse
Since the beginning of his mandate, Pope Francis has used the concept of periphery as a metaphor of social marginality. However, the notion of periphery also seems to target the asymmetries generated by the liberal version of globalization. Pope Francis' narrative has to be read in the broader context of the relation between religions and globalization. That interaction is usually conceptualized in terms of religions capitalizing on global "vecto…
Global Religions and International Relations
The study of religion in the context of international relations is experiencing a resurgence in attention and scholarship, serving as a crucial method of understanding world events through the cultural prism of faith. Religion's ability to confer legitimacy, influence world opinion of leaders and figureheads, and the tendency for religious conflicts to spill over borders all constitute ways in which faith shapes international relations. However, …
Religion and Democracy
Growing attention is given in IR theory and diplomatic circles to the ambivalent role of religion in world politics. However, there is a need for more analytical clarity, identifying at least four different domains: religions and inter-state relations; religions and internationalism; religions and trans-nationalism; and religions and globalism. The most promising approach is the one that concentrates on the transnational projection of religions, …
