The Right of Conquest

The Acquisition of Territory by Force in International Law and Practice

By: Sharon Korman

This is an enquiry into the place of the right of conquest in international relations since the early sixteenth century, and the causes and consequences of its demise in the twentieth century. It was a recognized principle of international law until the early years of this century that a state that emerges victorious in a war is entitled to claim sovereignty over territory which it has taken possession. Sharon Korman shows how the First World War - which led to the rise of self-determination and to calls for the prohibition of way - prompted the reconstruction of international law and the consequent abolition of the title by conquest. Her conclusion, which highlights the merits and defects of the modern law as a vehicle for discouraging war by denying the title to the conqueror, challenges many of the assumptions that have come to constitute part of the conventional wisdom of our times. This is a study, not of international law narrowly conceived, but of the place of a changing legal principle in international history and the contemporary world.

Foundations of Ethical Practice, Research, and Teaching in Psychology and Counseling

By: Karen Strohm Kitchener,Sharon K. Anderson

In Foundations of Ethical Practice, Research, and Teaching in Psychology and Counseling, Kitchener and Anderson lay a conceptual foundation for thinking well about ethical problems. Whereas the first edition focused mainly on ethical reasoning and decision making, this new edition draws more explicitly on all components of James Rest's model of moral/ethical behavior, including moral/ethical sensitivity, moral/ethical decision making, moral/ethical motivation, and the ego strength to follow through on the decision. The book addresses five key principles of ethical decision making and includes updated sections on research, teaching and supervision, and practice. It discusses the relationship of the ethical principles and the model of ethical decision-making to professional ethical codes, while offering discussion questions, case scenarios, and activities to help the reader focus on ethical character and virtue. Foundations of Ethical Practice, Research, and Teaching in Psychology and Counseling gives psychologists, students, and trainees the tools they need to analyze their own ethical quandaries and take the right action.

Literacy and Learning in the Content Areas

By: Sharon Kane

The 3rd Edition of Literacy & Learning in the Content Areas helps readers build the knowledge, motivation, tools, and confidence they need as they integrate literacy into their middle and high school content area classrooms. Its unique approach to teaching content area literacy actively engages preservice and practicing teachers in reading and writing and the very activities that they will use to teach literacy to their own studentsin middle and high school classrooms . Rather than passively learning about strategies for incorporating content area literacy activities, readers get hands-on experience in such techniques as mapping/webbing, anticipation guides, booktalks, class websites, and journal writing and reflection. Readers also learn how to integrate children's and young adult literature, primary sources, biographies, essays, poetry, and online content, communities, and websites into their classrooms. Each chapter offers concrete teaching examples and practical suggestions to help make literacy relevant to students' content area learning. Author Sharon Kane demonstrates how relevant reading, writing, speaking, listening, and visual learning activities can improve learning in content area subjects and at the same time help readers meet national content knowledge standards and benchmarks.

Cross-Cultural Practice

Assessment, Treatment, and Training

By: Sharon-Ann Gopaul-McNicol,Janet Brice-Baker

Developed primarily in the consulting rooms and universities of Europe and North America, traditional forms of psychological assessment and treatment are not up to the task of dealing with today's culturally diverse patients. In an increasingly multicultural society, where basic terms such as "normality" and "family" can have radically varying definitions, it is not unusual for well-meaning clinicians to inadvertently misclassify unfamiliar behaviors or beliefs as abnormal or pathological. Ultimately, the solution lies in educational reform. In the meantime, a major first step toward ensuring that ethnically different patients receive quality mental health services is the adoption of culturally sensitive assessment and intervention models such as those described in this pathbreaking book. The culmination of its authors' many years of experience in working with culturally diverse patients, this timely guide arms practitioners with an array of innovative—yet clinically grounded—approaches to psychological assessment, intervention, and training. With the help of numerous case examples drawn from their work with Asian, Caribbean, African American, and Hispanic clients, Drs. Gopaul-McNicol and Brice-Baker illustrate a four-step approach that entails assessing problems within their familial and sociocultural contexts, and then tailoring interventions that take full advantage of the religious, social, educational, familial, and legal institutions that shape an individual's experiences and beliefs. The authors begin with a trenchant critique of traditional mental health training, in which they expose built-in cultural and historical biases that effectively hobble a trainee's ability to think multiculturally. They next explore a range of assessment issues, describe clinically validated techniques for treating culturally diverse children, parents, and couples, and outline best practices in report writing for linguistically and culturally diverse clients. In their discussion of clinical issues that arise when dealing with culturally diverse families, they detail a proven Multicultural/Multimodal/Multisystems (Multi-CMS) approach to intervention. Returning to the topic of education in the final section, they outline the major competencies needed to develop a trainee's multicultural skills, and offer valuable training suggestions for professors and clinical supervisors. Describing a dynamic new approach to cross-cultural assessment and treatment, Cross-Cultural Practice is valuable reading for both professionals and students in mental health. A dynamic new approach to cross-cultural assessment and treatment The Global Village presaged by Marshall McLuhan in the 1960s has arrived with a vengeance. For many mental health professionals this brings with it the daunting challenge of working with patients with a vast array of beliefs, values, customs, and behaviors. This groundbreaking book helps clinicians meet the challenge of assessing and treating diverse clients by arming them with a bold new multicultural approach. Using numerous case examples drawn from their years of practice with Asian, Caribbean, African American, and Hispanic clients, the authors: Describe proven techniques for assessing culturally diverse children, parents, and couples Develop a proven Multicultural/Multimodal/Multi-systems (Multi-CMS) approach to intervention Expose the cultural biases at the core of conventional mental health training Outline the major competencies needed to develop a trainee's multicultural skills and develop alternative approaches to clinical training

Clinical Social Work Practice

A Cognitive-Integrative Perspective

By: Sharon B. Berlin

This book sets out a cognitive perspective on clinical social work practice that emphasized the role of social sources of information in shaping personal meanings. It draws on a number theoretical perspectives to explain how the mind works and integrates them within a framework that suggests that people operate according their sense of what things mean, and that these meanings are a function of memory networks of previous experiences and the nature of the new information that they encounter.

Cinema's Sinister Psychiatrists

From Caligari to Hannibal

By: Sharon Packer, M.D.

Film history is merged with psychiatric history seamlessly, to show how and why bad depictions of mind doctors (especially hypnotists) occur in early film, long before Hannibal Lecter burst upon the scene. The German Expressionist Dr. Caligari is not cinema's first psychotic charlatan, but he launches the stereotype of screen psychiatrists who are sicker than their patients. Many film psychiatrists function as political metaphors, while many more reflect real life clinical controversies. This book discusses films with diabolical drugging, unethical experimentation, involuntary incarceration, sexual exploitation, lobotomies, "shock schlock," conspiracy theories and military medicine, to show how fact informs fantasy, and when fantasy trumps reality. Traditional asylum thrillers changed after hospital stays shortened and laws protected people against involuntary commitment. Except for six short "golden years" from 1957 to 1963, portrayals of bad psychiatrists far outnumber good ones and this book tells how and why that was.

Assessment and Culture

Psychological Tests with Minority Populations

By: Sharon-ann Gopaul McNicol,Eleanor Armour-Thomas

Assessment and Culture challenges the classical approach to the assessment of minority populations by pointing out the deficiencies in this approach and offers instead a bio-cultural model of assessment. The principle objective of this book is to help mental health professionals to more accurately assess individuals from various ethnic, cultural and linguistic backgrounds. The culture-fair techniques and strategies of the book tap into a broad range of the abilities and aptitudes of the examinee. Assessment and Culture provides a cultural frame of reference which allows the examiner to take into account the individual's social and cultural factors in development, coping style and personal history. Individual chapters consider the practical aspects of assessing the intellectual, linguistic, academic, visual-motor, emotional and vocational functioning of culturally diverse children. An entire section of the book is devoted to writing the assessment report.

Sharon

By: Sharon Historical Society

At the turn of the 20th century, Sharon's very existence was threatened by the collapse of the local iron industry as the town's economy and population began to decline. However, the popularity of automobile transportation and Sharon's accessible distance from New York attracted a class of wealthy visitors who fell in love with the rolling hills and quiet valleys. This new weekend population purchased land and built stately country homes, reigniting interest in the area. Steady growth in construction provided much-needed work, and commerce began to thrive again. Early businesses expanded, and new operations opened. Local residents could shop at stores run by the Gillette brothers and A.R. Woodward, fill their tanks at Herman Middlebrook's gas station, and have their health care needs attended to by doctors at the state-of-the-art Sharon Hospital, built in 1916. Eastern Europeans became the town's newest residents, taking advantage of the affordable, cleared land to fuel a large number of highly successful farms. Sharon's residents thrived as they reshaped their town, welcoming newcomers and nurturing a community of inclusion that lasts to the present day.
