ISBN: 9781475814378 / Angielski / Twarda / 262 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

The Inclusion Delusion?: Reflections on Democracy, Ethos and Education
ISBN: 9783034317856 / Angielski / Miękka / 283 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. It may seem self-evident that a democratic society ought to develop inclusive institutions and an inclusive educational system, yet when we try to define what we understand by inclusion, its complexity becomes apparent. This book does not seek to diminish that complexity but aims to deepen our understanding of the idea and ideals of inclusion, as well as examining the presuppositions, values, aims and blind-spots associated with the language of inclusion. What do we mean by the concept? What normative assumptions underpin discourses of inclusion? What happens when we fail to think about the...

Two recently retired high level federal managers have issued the second edition of their book series on government service, We Are Not the Enemy: Restoring Honor to U.S. Civil Service: 2014 Review and Update. Scandals in 2014 by a few at the Internal Revenue Service, the Veterans Administration, and the Secret Service took their toll in sullying the reputations of the vast majority of civil servants who perform their duties well. Not surprisingly, the first rendering of the Government Honor Index indicates a decrease from 2013 to 2014 in the perceived level of respect held for federal...
