FILM REVIEW 24 Altruism & Social Solidarity 1 COOLEY -MEAD PRESENTATION FOCUSES ON ALTRUISM Jane Allyn Piliavin’s Cooley-Mead Presentation to the Social Psychology Section at the 2008 meetings of the American Sociological Association was recently published in Social Psychology Quarterly (Vol. 72, No. 3). Piliavin is Professor of Sociology and Women's Studies at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and has made a major contribution to the literature on altruism, as well as many other areas of study, over the course of her distinguished career. The title of her address is “Altruism and Helping: The Evolution of a Field.” In this lecture, she addresses definitional issues surrounding “altruism” and “prosocial behavior” while offering a helpful history of this field of study. She notes that, “many people believe that there is no such thing as al- truism” (p. 211). This is indeed a challenge that many of us in the Altruism & Social Solidarity Section-In- Formation continue to confront. Fortunately, her own work and the research that she reviews clearly demon- strates the utility of altruism as a concept. Her remarks are organized around a series of questions, such as: “Why do people help?” “What are the origins of helping and altruism?” “Can altruism be trained?” and “How are organizations related to prosocial behavior?” Whether you are just getting started in this field of study, or you are a seasoned veteran, Piliavin’s address provides an essential overview of sociological an- swers to these important questions. —Editor FROM THE EDITOR As this newsletter dem- among scholars of altru- I am grateful for the onstrates, members of ism and social solidarity. high-quality contribu- the Altruism & Social This is one of the rea- tions that I received for Solidarity Section-in- sons why we need to this issue.

The materials included letters, notebooks, photographs, books, original and revised manu- scripts, his works in all other translations, and book reviews. As part of the arrangement for receiv- ing this unique research resource, the University of Saskatchewan agreed to hold an annual lecture in Professor Sorokin's honor. Since that time the Sorokin Lecture has been part of the University of Saskatchewan lecture series. The Department of Sociology has had the responsibility for organizing this lecture series since its inception. Most Sorokin lectures have been published by the University. Many of them can be purchased from the Department of Sociology for $7.50. The availability of this collection has made it possible for researchers to visit the campus to use the collection for re- search purposes. The 40th Annual Sorokin Lecture was presented by Dr. Peter Jarvis in March 2009. The title of the lecture was “The End of a Sensate Age — What Next?” Prominent sociologists who have delivered the Sorokin lecture include Dorothy E. Smith and Craig Calhoun.

  • Malawi's Orphans
    CHAPTER FOURTEEN MALAWI’S ORPHANS: CHILDREN’S RIGHTS IN RELATION TO HUMANITARIANISM, COMPASSION, AND CHILDCARE Andrea Freidus1 My first reaction is the feeling of helplessness, and hopelessness. Seeing so many eyes of the orphans, innocent and pure makes me feel a little over- whelmed…Poverty and HIV/AIDS, malaria, are now all over southern Africa… Without a heart of compassion and love, without a true passion in helping and offering Madonna could not do this. So I give more credit to her now than before, and I see this as a gift to Malawi rather than a tool of celebrity propaganda. —MSU undergraduate after viewing Madonna’s documentary on Malawi. As an assignment for a women’s studies undergraduate course, students viewed the film “I am Because We Are.” Produced by Madonna to raise awareness about her organization, Raising Malawi, it focuses on the situa- tion of orphans and AIDS in Malawi. Students were asked to respond to the content of the documentary including their perceptions of orphans in Malawi, their overall reaction, and the film’s impact on their desire to be connected or involved with these issues. The above quote is one of many that captures the ability of humanitarians and the organizations they sup- port to use the media to foster an emotional response. This response is based on the recognition of a common humanity and the need to address suffering. The student’s reaction highlights the power of the image of the orphan to bring about a sense of compassion drawing on the innocence of children.

    Provincial Co-ordinators Mission and Evangelism Consultation Resurrection Gardens, Nairobi, Kenya 6-13 May 2002 Press Release: Mission at the heart of the church 'Mission is at the heart of the life and calling of the Church. God's mission of love and life is universal in scope- to all people in all situations (John 3:16)' This was the central affirmation of the first-ever Consultation of Co-ordinators of Mission and Evangelism within the Anglican Communion meeting in Nairobi, Kenya from 6-13 May. Representatives from Anglican provinces in Asia, the Pacific, Australasia, the Middle East, Central, East, West and Southern Africa, North America, the Caribbean and Britain and Ireland met for the first major gathering on mission and evangelism in the Anglican Communion since the end of the Decade of Evangelism. They were joined by representatives from the world mission agencies - the Mothers Union, Church Army (Africa), CMS and USPG. (Mr.) John Clark, Chief Secretary for Mission of the Church of England, chair of the Consultation commented: 'This has been an invigorating and spiritually refreshing experience. I sense a great energy and vitality amongst those present and within the Communion, and a renewed commitment to make evangelism and mission a priority within the life of our church. The Consultation has helped us appreciate the rich variety of the Communion and to be deeply challenged by those amongst us who are seeking to forward the gospel in situations of great suffering and hardship.' The majority of those attending had never participated in an international Anglican Communion gathering before.

  • South African Festivals in the United States: an Expression of Policies
    South African Festivals in the United States: An Expression of Policies, Power and Networks DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Akhona Ndzuta, MA Graduate Program in Arts Administration, Education and Policy The Ohio State University 2019 Dissertation Committee: Karen E. Hutzel, Ph.D. Wayne P. Lawson, Ph.D. Margaret J. Wyszomirski, Ph.D., Advisor Copyright by Akhona Ndzuta 2019 Abstract This research is a qualitative case study of two festivals that showcased South African music in the USA: the South African Arts Festival which took place in downtown Los Angeles in 2013, and the Ubuntu Festival which was staged at Carnegie Hall in New York in 2014. At both festivals, South African government entities such as the Department of Arts and Culture (DAC), as well as the Department of International Relations and Cooperation (DIRCO) were involved. Due to the cultural, economic and other mandates of these departments, broader South African government policy interests were inadvertently represented on foreign soil. The other implication is that since South African culture was central to these events, it was also key to promoting these acultural policy interests. What this research sets out to do is to explore how these festivals promote the interests of South African musicians while furthering South African government interests, and how policy was an enabler of such an execution. ii Acknowledgements I would like to thank the Oppenheimer Memorial Trust and the National Arts Council of South Africa for their generous funding in the first two years of my studies.

  • The Value of Ubuntu in Social Work

EXPLORING AFRICAN PHILOSOPHY: THE VALUE OF UBUNTU IN SOCIAL WORK Mugumbate, Jacoba and Nyanguru, Andrewb ABSTRACT This paper looks at the concept of ubuntu, how it has been applied in different fields and lessons that can be drawn for the social work profession. Ubuntu can best be described as an African philosophy that places emphasis on ‘being self through others’. It is a form of humanism which can be expressed in the phrases ‘I am because of who we all are’ and ubuntu ngumuntu ngabantu in Zulu language. So far, it has been successfully applied in theology, management and computer science. This paper concludes that its utilisation in these disciplines makes it suitable for application in social work especially to enhance practice ethics, community work and conduct in research. the paper was based on desk research.
