  • Title: a Rich Portrait of the Non-Violent Resistance Multi- Parent Therapeutic Programme
    Title: A rich portrait of the non-violent resistance multi- parent therapeutic programme Name: Elizabeth Mary Day This is a digitised version of a dissertation submitted to the University of Bedfordshire. It is available to view only. This item is subject to copyright. A RICH PORTRAIT OF THE NON-VIOLENT RESISTANCE MULTI-PARENT THERAPEUTIC PROGRAMME By ELIZABETH MARY DAY A thesis submitted to the University of Bedfordshire in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Professional Doctorate in Systemic Practice June 2014 Figure 1: Etching 1 (hard ground and chine-collé) Page 2 of 373 Abstract Non-violent resistance group therapy is an innovative way of working with parents whose children are violent and out of control. The programme brings about change on a number of levels, some of which were beyond our expectations. This research aims to both look into the clinical practice and to develop a research method which can do it justice. My aim was to research into those areas which are ‘felt’: beyond the known and the written about. In order to do this I take aspects of the research method portraiture (Lawrence-Lightfoot and Hoffmann Davis, 1997) and bring them together with rich description, rich pictures and arts research practices, so as to create a new qualitative inquiry method which I call ‘rich portraiture’. I describe the development of rich portraiture as a research method and show how I applied it to my practice. At the heart of my dissertation is a complex and layered rich portrait which inquires into the particular experiences of the facilitators of and participants in this groupwork programme (Day and Heismann, 2010).

    Library of Congress Interview with Mr. Stanley Zuckerman Association for Diplomatic Studies and Training Foreign Affairs Oral History Project STANLEY ZUCKERMAN Interviewed by: Charles Stuart Kennedy Initial interview date: July 26, 2004 Copyright 2010 ADST Q: Today is 26 July, 2004. This is an interview with Stanley Zuckerman. This is being done on behalf of the Association for Diplomatic Studies and Training, and I am Charles Stuart Kennedy. You do go by Stan? ZUCKERMAN: Yes. Q: Okay, to begin with, when and where were you born? ZUCKERMAN: I was born in Brooklyn, New York September 7, 1933. Q: Right in time for the depression. ZUCKERMAN: I arrived with the depression and Hitler's rise to power. And Roosevelt's as well, and only a couple of months before the end of prohibition, an event my father used to say was the real secret to Roosevelt's popularity. Q: Well, Stan, let's get a little bit about your background. Starting first on your father's side. Where do the Zuckermans come from and what do you know about them? Interview with Mr. Stanley Zuckerman http://www.loc.gov/item/mfdipbib001674 Library of Congress ZUCKERMAN: I don't know a great deal about my forebears on either side. My father's father and mother came from Hungary in about 1880. My grandfather came first, and she arrived later. He was poor and ill and died young of lung disease. His birth certificate indicates that his parents, Herman Zuckerman and Tillie Richards, were also from Hungary. Unfortunately the census doesn't indicate what city people are from.

  • Migrant Conversions Transforming Connections Between Peru and South Korea Caren Caren Eleana J
    vogel ANTHROPOLOGY | ASIAN STUDIES | RELIGION Peruvian migrant workers began arriving in South Korea in large numbers in the mid- | 1990s, eventually becoming one of the largest groups of non-Asians in the country. Migrant Conversions shows how despite facing unstable income and legal exclusion, MIGRANT CONVERSIONS migrants have come to see Korea as an ideal destination, sometimes even as part of their divine destiny. Faced with a forced end to their residence in Korea, Peruvi- ans have developed strategies to transform themselves from economic migrants into heads of successful transnational families, influential church leaders, and cosmopol- itan travelers. Set against the backdrop of the 2008 global financial crisis,Migrant Conversions explores the intersections of three types of conversions—monetary, religious, and cosmopolitan—to argue that migrants use conversions to negotiate the meaning of their lives in a constantly changing transnational context. As Peruvi- ans carve out social spaces, they create complex and uneven connections between Peru and Korea that challenge a global hierarchy of nations and migrants. Explor- ing how migrants, churches, and nations change through processes of conversion reveals how globalization continues to impact people’s lives and ideas about their futures and pasts long after they have stopped moving or after a particular global moment has come to an end. TRANSFORMING CONNECTIONS BETWEEN PERU AND SOUTH KOREA “A model of what transnational ethnographic research can accomplish.” ELEANA J. KIM, author of Adopted Territory: Transnational Korean Adoptees and the Politics of Belonging “With crisp prose and candid presence throughout the text, Vogel gives us the first book-length study of the experiences of non-Asian migrants in South Korea.” CAREN FREEMAN, author of Making and Faking Kinship: Marriage and Labor Migration between China and South Korea ERICA VOGEL is Associate Professor of Anthropology at Saddleback College.
