The Norms of Answerability

Social Theory Between Bakhtin and Habermas

By: Greg M. Nielsen

Greg M. Nielsen brings Mikhail Bakhtin's ethics and aesthetics into a dialogue with social theory that responds to the sense of ambivalence and uncertainty at the core of modern societies. Nielsen situates a social theory between Bakhtin's norms of answerability and Jürgen Habermas's sociology, ethics, and discourse theory of democracy in a way that emphasizes the creative dimension in social action without reducing explanation to the emotional and volitional impulse of the individual or collective actor. Some of the classical sources that support this mediated position are traced to Alexander Vvedenskij's and Georg Simmel's critiques of Kant's ethics, Hermann Cohen's philosophy of fellowship, and Max Weber's and George Herbert Mead's theories of action. In the shift from Bakhtin's theory of interpersonal relations to a dialogic theory of societal events that defends the bold claim that law and politics should not be completely separated from the specificity of ethical and cultural communities, a study of citizenship and national identity is developed.

What Educators Need to Know about Immigration Law

Supporting Immigrant, Undocumented, and Refugee Students

By: Greg Cunningham

The book is the direct response to the types of questions that educators have asked to author over the years with regards to definitions of certain legal terms as well as what types of resources are available for refugees and immigrants in the community. It is scenario-based, in that it grounds the law and policy explained within its pages in the types of real-life events educators could encounter in the course of their teaching, and it provides practical information that educators can use to both advocate for the refugees and immigrants with whom they work and direct them toward needed services"--
