It is used to explain diverse relations between contexts, institutions, structures, community organizations, and groups, and the diverse relationships between organizational representatives and community members. It is these dances with difference through which groups and individuals deal with contextual forces, negotiate cultural identities, subjectivities, and positioning, and orient themselves toward their work. Featuring case studies of several international, national, and local organizations, the book showcases both first-hand and public discourses related to community engagement work from Nepal and Northern Ireland to Kenya, Zimbabwe, and the U.S. A framework of critical/interpretive intercultural praxis is offered to guide research and practice across the case studies. It is designed to benefit scholars, students, and practitioners who work in community-based settings by presenting a relevant and applicable guide for entering into community engagement.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 230mmItem Length: 155mmItem Weight: 470gContributor: Mary Jane Collier (Edited by)Author: Mary Jane CollierBook Series: Critical Intercultural Communication StudiesGenre: Language & ReferenceTopic: Society & Culture, Computing & Internet, Children's Learning & EducationType: TextbookRelease Year: 2013 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
