I et lettilgængeligt sprog gennemgår Anne-Mette Sohn Jensen den grundlæggende teori bag begreberne arousal og compassion og forklarer, hvorfor børn og unge hidser sig op, og hvordan du får dem til at falde ned igen. Og endnu bedre: Hvordan du skaber rammer, så de ikke flipper ud så ofte. Ved hjælp af fire gennemgående cases – fra indskoling, udskoling på en specialskole, en daginstitution og en døgninstitution – viser hun, hvordan du kan omsætte denne viden til pædagogisk praksis. Hun forklarer desuden, hvad den problemskabende adfærd kan gøre ved dig, og hvordan du kan passe på dig selv og håndtere de følelser, der følger med, når man anvender en compassionbaseret tilgang. Arousal og Compassion er relevant for alle, der arbejder med børn og unge, som har en adfærd, der skaber problemer for dem selv og deres omgivelser.
OMSORGSTRÆTHED er en særlig form for følelsesmæssig udbrændthed, der kan opstå over tid, når du arbejder med mennesker. I denne bog gennemgår Anne-Mette Sohn Jensen syv forebyggende principper for, hvordan du og dine kolleger kan tilrettelægge arbejdet på en bæredygtig måde – både som enkeltperson, team, ledelse og organisation. De syv principper er: 1. Roller, værdier, indflydelse og rammer2. Mennesket er uperfekt, sårbart og ansvarligt3. Det (hele) handler om følelser4. Ingen kender fremtiden5. Den dobbelte opgave – faglighed og samarbejde6. Bæredygtig arbejdsfordeling7. Arbejdsglæde og self-compassion. Den røde tråd igennem alle syv principper er en compassionbaseret tilgang. Compassion kan beskrives som en opmærksomhed på og følsomhed over for egen og andres lidelse samt et dybt ønske om at lindre. Bogen henvender sig til pædagoger, lærere, socialrådgivere, sygeplejersker, psykologer, plejeforældre, præster, læger m.fl. – og ikke mindst til ledere af disse faggrupper.
Dit sensitive barn er skrevet på baggrund af erfaringer og eksempler fra flere end 50 forældre om alt fra søvn, mad, legekammerater og venskaber over søskende til nedsmeltninger, højtider, tøj, der kradser, og meget mere. Bogen indeholder desuden en gennemgang af den nyeste forskning på området og er spækket med gode råd, andre forældres erfaringer og faglige betragtninger omkring hverdagslivet med et sensitivt barn. Særligt sensitive børn har mange ekstra udfordringer i en hverdag, der er tætpakket med aktiviteter og måske uro i børnehave eller skole. Men med den rette viden hos forældre, lærere, pædagoger og andre voksne i barnets hverdag kan disse udfordringer sagtens tackles. Forfatteren er cand.pæd. i pædagogisk psykologi på Aarhus Universitet med speciale i særlig sensitivitet. Hun holder foredrag og rådgiver om emnet over hele landet.
This book explores editorial and advertising discourses related to cosmetic procedures and beauty products and services in UK lifestyle magazines, offering a holistic perspective on the normalisation of cosmetic procedures and the societal context in which particular perceptions have flourished.The volume examines the societal climate that contributed to cultural perceptions of the body as object and project, and constructions of masculinities and femininities as context for developments in lifestyle magazines’ content on beauty and cosmetic procedures. Integrating approaches from Critical Discourse Analysis, Thematic Analysis, and Content Analysis, Hermans explores the varying ways in which cosmetic procedures and other beauty products are marketed to different audiences and examines phenomena such as the problem/solution rhetoric, and developments in beauty advertising discourse specifically targeted at men. The book also investigates the continuum view of beauty products and cosmetic procedures, and examines the implications of these blurred boundaries for the regulation of the cosmetic surgery industry.This innovative contribution to research on the representation of cosmetic procedures and beauty products in the media will be of interest to scholars researching at the intersection of language, gender, individualised body projects, and sexuality.

Presenting a study of politics at grassroots level among young Japanese, this book examines the alliance between the religious movement Soka Gakkai (the ‘Value-creation Society’) and Komeito (the ‘Clean Government Party’), which shared power with the Liberal Democratic Party from 1999 to 2009. Drawing on primary research carried out among Komeito supporters, the book focuses on the lives of supporters and voters in order to better understand the processes of democracy. It goes on to discuss what the political behaviour of young Komeito supporters tell us about the role of religious organizations, such as Soka Gakkai, in Japanese politics. Unlike most other books on politics in Japan which tend to concentrate on political elites, this book provides extremely valuable insights into political culture at the grassroots level.

Governance is an easy-to read introduction to an increasingly important concept in political science. It provides a clear overview of how the concept has been used in the sub-fields of public administration and public policy, international relations, European studies and comparative politics. There is no universally accepted and agreed definition of 'governance'. It remains an elusive theory, defined and conceptualized in various ways. In this book, Anne Mette Kjaer guides the reader through the key theoretical debates which have given rise to distinct interpretations of governance. Drawing on a wide range of empirical examples to illustrate her arguments, the author explores how governance has been used in different ways to describe political changes in the modern world. She goes on to weigh up the pros and cons of governance as an analytical term, and concludes with a discussion of the World Bank's role as an international organization which aims to promote 'good governance' in poor countries across the globe. This is the first textbook to offer a systematic assessment of current debates around the concept of governance. It will be a valuable resource for undergraduate and postgraduate students of politics, international relations and public policy.

This open access monograph argues established democratic norms for freedom of expression should be implemented on the internet. Moderating policies of tech companies as Facebook, Twitter and Google have resulted in posts being removed on an industrial scale. While this moderation is often encouraged by governments - on the pretext that terrorism, bullying, pornography, "hate speech" and "fake news" will slowly disappear from the internet - it enables tech companies to censure our society. It is the social media companies who define what is blacklisted in their community standards. And given the dominance of social media in our information society, we run the risk of outsourcing the definition of our principles for discussion in the public domain to private companies. Instead of leaving it to social media companies only to take action, the authors argue democratic institutions should take an active role in moderating criminal content on the internet. To make this possible, tech companies should be analyzed whether they are approaching a monopoly. Antitrust legislation should be applied to bring those monopolies within democratic governmental oversight. Despite being in different stages in their lives, Anne Mette is in the startup phase of her research career, while Frederik is one of the most prolific philosophers in Denmark, the authors found each other in their concern about Free Speech on the internet. The book was originally published in Danish as Dit opslag er blevet fjernet - techgiganter & ytringsfrihed. Praise for 'Your Post has been Removed' "From my perspective both as a politician and as private book collector, this is the most important non-fiction book of the 21st Century. It should be disseminated to all European citizens. The learnings of this book and the use we make of them today are crucial for every man, woman and child on earth. Now and in the future." Jens Rohde, member of the European Parliament for the Alliance of Liberals and Democrats for Europe "This timely book compellingly presents an impressive array of information and analysis about the urgent threats the tech giants pose to the robust freedom of speech and access to information that are essential for individual liberty and democratic self-government. It constructively explores potential strategies for restoring individual control over information flows to and about us. Policymakers worldwide should take heed " Nadine Strossen, Professor, New York Law School.
