<p><strong>This is the extraordinary and little known story of Qantas' significant role during World War II, particularly in its campaigns against the Japanese.</strong></p> <p>Between 1942 and 1943, Qantas lost eight aircraft during its involvement in Australia's war against the Japanese. Over sixty passengers and crew died as a result. Yet Qantas' exemplary contribution to Australia's war effort and the courage of its people in those difficult times has been forgotten.</p> <p><em>Courage in the Skies</em> is the remarkable story of Qantas at war and the truly heroic deeds of its crew and ground staff as the Japanese advanced towards Australia. Flying unarmed planes through war zones and at times under enemy fire, the airline supplied the front lines, evacuated the wounded and undertook surprising escapes, including carrying more than forty anxious civilians on the last aircraft to leave besieged Singapore.</p> <p>Absorbing, spirited and fast-paced, above all this is a story of an extraordinary group of Australians who confronted the dark days of World War II with bravery, commitment and initiative. They just happened to be Qantas people.</p> <p>'In this most readable book, Jim Eames captures the experiences of a small band of brave, professional and pioneering aircrew who confronted the dangers of war, the challenges of unforgiving oceanic and tropical weather and the uncertainty of navigation in unarmed flying boats and conventional aircraft.' - Air Chief Marshal Sir Angus Houston AK, AFC (Ret'd)</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 Courage in the Skies The untold story of Qantas, its brave men and women and their extraordinary role in World War II【電子書籍】[ Jim Eames ] 1,234 円

<p>Appointments to the United States Supreme Court are now central events in American political life. Every vacancy unleashes a bitter struggle between Republicans and Democrats over nominees; and once the seat is filled, new justices typically vote in predictable ways. However, this has not always been the case. As late as the middle of the twentieth century, presidents invested little time and effort in finding and vetting nominees, often selecting personal cronies, who senators briskly confirmed. Media coverage was desultory, public opinion was largely non-existent, and the justices often voted independently and erratically. In <em>Making the Supreme Court</em>, Charles M. Cameron and Jonathan P. Kastellec examine 90 years of American political history to show how the growth of federal judicial power from the 1930s onward inspired a multitude of groups struggling to shape judicial policy. Over time, some groups moved beyond lobbying the Court to changing who sits on it. Other groups formed expressly to influence appointments. These activists and organized groups penetrated the national party system so that after about 1980, presidential candidates increasingly pledged to select and confirm nominees who conformed to specific policy and ideological litmus tests. Once in office, these presidents re-shaped the executive selection system to deliver on their promises. Moreover, the selection process for justices turned into media events, often fueled by controversy. As Cameron and Kastellec argue, the result is a new politics aimed squarely at selecting and placing judicial ideologues on the Court. They make the case that this new model gradually transformed how the Court itself operates, turning it into an ideologically driven and polarized branch. Based on rich data and qualitative evidence, <em>Making the Supreme Court</em> provides a sharp lens on the social and political transformations that created a new American politics.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 Making the Supreme Court The Politics of Appointments, 1930-2020【電子書籍】[ Charles M.

<p>Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2005 im Fachbereich Politik - Internationale Politik - Thema: Europ?ische Union, Note: 2,0, Europa-Universit?t Viadrina Frankfurt (Oder) (Kulturwissenschaftliche Fakult?t), Veranstaltung: The political Process in the European Union, 46 Quellen im Literaturverzeichnis, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: 1. Einleitung Das Scheitern der Volksentscheide in Frankreich und den Niederlanden ?ber die Verfassung f?r Europa hat heftige Diskussionen um Europa, seine Werte und Ziele und Ausgestaltung ausgel?st. W?hrend Einige schon das Ende der Europ?ischen Union sehen, zumindest das politische, suchen Andere nach den Gr?nden und L?sungen aus dieser Krise. Streitpunkt ist dabei h?ufig die Frage nach der sozialen Dimension der EU. Konfliktpotential b?rgt dieses Thema nicht zuletzt wegen der Unterschiede der einzelnen Mitgliedstaaten und ihren jeweiligen nationalen Eigenheiten. Aber wie sozial muss Europa sein? Die Sozialpolitik ist ein Politikfeld, das auf europ?ischer Ebene nicht von Beginn an Beachtung fand. In den Anfangsjahren der europ?ischen Gemeinschaft waren vor allem wirtschaftlich Beweggr?nde ma?geblich. Demzufolge dominierten ?konomische Ziele auch die europ?ische Politik dieser Zeit. Erst durch die Entwicklung des Binnenmarktes und die Migrationsbewegungen der Wander- und Gastarbeiter in den 1960er Jahren verst?rkte sich der Bedarf einer ?bergreifenden europ?ischen Sozialpolitik. Die Notwendigkeit, diese Arbeiter auch im europ?ischen Ausland zu sch?tzen, machte die Sozialpolitik zum festen Bestandteil der europ?ischen Agenda. Als sozialpolitische Ma?nahmen werden hierbei alle Bestimmungen bezeichnet, die f?r die Mitgliedstaaten verbindlich festgeschrieben werden und die f?r das nationale Arbeits- und Sozialrecht unmittelbare Relevanz besitzen (vgl. Althammer, Lampert 2004: 429). Ziel dieser Arbeit ist es, die historische Entwicklung der Europ?ischen Sozialpolitik nachzuvollziehen und dabei eine genaue Betrachtung der einzelnen f?r dieses Politikfeld relevanten Vertr?ge vorzunehmen. Bei dieser Untersuchung sind die Entwicklungen der einzelnen Kompetenzbereiche der EU, die anzuwendenden Beschlussverfahren sowie die Einstellungen und das Verhalten der einzelnen Mitgliedstaaten von Interesse. Im Anschluss an die historische Betrachtung folgt eine genaue Analyse der Verfassung f?r Europa. Dabei werden sowohl die Entstehung dieser Verfassung sowie deren Relevanz f?r die europ?ische Sozialpolitik ber?cksichtigt. Dar?ber hinaus wird explizit auf die Gr?nde f?r das Scheitern der Volksabstimmungen eingegangen und ?berpr?ft, welche Konsequenzen und Perspektiven sich daraus ergeben, insbesondere unter Ber?cksichtigung der britischen Ratspr?sidentschaft.

<p>God said, let us make man in our own image, after our likeness. Let him have dominion over the earth, over the animals, the seas9Gen.1:26). Angels were created from the begining by God and they are not creators with God. Let the Angels praize the Lord as they were created to praize him (Psalm 148:2,5). This demonstrates how spencial we are compared with Angels. The word of God said, don't know, you are gods and co-heads with him. We as human kind will judge Angels. Humanity was not made in the image of Angels but rather in the image of God. When God created humankind, He made them in the likeness of God. Male and female, he created, blessed them and named them humankind (Gen 1:5). Creation belongs to the will of God and not man. God did not make the decisions with the counsel of Angels. God states the men are like us (Gen3:2) At tower of babel, God went and confused their language and scatter humankind on face of the earth (Gen 11:7).</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 Man or Angel【電子書籍】[ Tina Rosemary Ojukwu ] 567 円

<p>The current rise of Islamism throughout the Muslim world, Islamists’ demand for the establishment of Islamic states, and their destabilizing impact on regional and global orders have raised important questions about the origins of Islamism and the nature of an Islamic state. Beginning with the Iranian revolution of the late 1970s and the establishment of the Islamic Republic to today’s rise of ISIS to prominence, it has become increasingly apparent that Islamism is a major global force in the twenty-first century that demands acknowledgment and answers.</p> <p>As a highly-integrated belief system, the Islamic worldview rejects secularism and accounts for a prominent role for religion in the politics and laws of Muslim societies. Islam is primarily a legal framework that covers all aspects of Muslims’ individual and communal lives. In this sense, the Islamic state is a logical instrument for managing Muslim societies. Even moderate Muslims who genuinely, but not necessarily vociferously, challenge the extremists’ strategies are not dismissive of the political role of Islam and the viability of an Islamic state. However, sectarian and scholastic schisms within Islam that date back to the prophet’s demise do undermine any possibility of consensus about the legal, institutional, and policy parameters of the Islamic state.</p> <p>Within its Shi’a sectarian limitations, this book attempts to offer some answers to questions about the nature of the Islamic state. Nearly four decades of experience with the Islamic Republic of Iran offers us some insights into such a state’s accomplishments, potentials, and challenges. While the Islamic worldview offers a general framework for governance, this framework is in dire need of modification to be applicable to modern societies. As Iranians have learned, in the realm of practical politics, transcending the restrictive precepts of Islam is the most viable strategy for building a functional Islamic state. Indeed, Islam does provide both doctrinal and practical instruments for transcending these restrictions. This pursuit of pragmatism could potentially offer impressive strategies for governance as long as sectarian, scholastic, and autocratic proclivities of authorities do not derail the rights of the public and their demand for an orderly management of their societies.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 Islamic Law and Governance in Contemporary Iran Transcending Islam for Social, Economic, and Political Order【電子書籍】[ Mehran Tamadonfar, University of Nevada, Las ] 8,105 円

<p>GERACE, Citt? Magno-Greca delle Cento Chiese, ? avvincente e suggestivo per molti motivi. Appare anzitutto come un viaggio in un paese della provincia italiana, in una regione percepita come periferica, come la Calabria. E qui iniziano le prime sorprese, nello scoprire una vitalit? umana, sociale e culturale inattesa; popolata da presenze attive e consapevoli, in un viaggio che ? al tempo stesso nella memoria del suo autore ma anche nella storia del nostro Paese. Storia vista attraverso la lente accessibile e a misura d'uomo di vicende e storie locali, in cui tuttavia si sente l'eco di un periodo in cui l'Italia viveva grandi cambiamenti. Il tutto corredato da interventi di diversi geracesi ? alcuni dei quali divenuti figure culturali di spicco, spesso lontano da Gerace ? cui l'autore d? sapientemente voce perch? ciascuno racconti un aspetto della sua citt?. ? cos? che si forma un caleidoscopio di sguardi e di impressioni, la cui progressione ? conclusa da alcune note familiari dell'autore ? porta a un risultato inaspettato e paradossale: quello di far gradualmente evaporare la nitida immagine di Gerace. Immagine che evapora perch? si afferma sempre pi? il senso di sfogliare una storia che potrebbe essere quella di mille borghi d'Italia, e di raccontare una memoria che potrebbe essere quella di ognuno di noi. Prof. Lorenzo De Sio FRANCESCO MARIA SPAN?, giurista con un passato da pubblicista, dalle esperienze giovanili nel mondo dorato di Gerace arriva a Roma dove diventa direttore delle risorse umane dell'Universit?

<p>The events of 2016 catapulted immigration policy to the forefront of public debate, and Donald Trump’s administration has signaled a harsh turn in enforcement. Yet the deportation, detention, and border-control policies that North American and European countries have embraced are by no means new. In this book, sociologists David C. Brotherton and Philip Kretsedemas bring together an interdisciplinary group of contributors to reconsider the immigration policies of the Obama era and beyond in terms of a decades-long “age of punishment.”</p> <p><em>Immigration Policy in the Age of Punishment</em>takes a critical, interdisciplinary, and transnational look at current issues surrounding immigration in the U.S. and abroad. It examines key features of this age of punishment, connecting neoliberal governance, global labor markets, and the national obsession with securing borders to explain critical research and theory on immigration enforcement. Contributors document the continuities between presidential administrations and across countries from many perspectives, with chapters discussing Canada, Australia, France, the UK, the Dominican Republic, and Mexico in addition to the U.S. They offer macro-level analyses of deportations and border enforcement, analyses of national policy and jurisprudence, and ethnographic accounts of the daily life experience of the prison-to-deportation pipeline, the making of deportability, and post-deportation transitions for noncitizens. This book highlights new directions in critical immigration policy and enforcement and deportation studies with the aim of problematizing the age of punishment that currently reigns over borders and those who seek to cross them.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 Immigration Policy in the Age of Punishment Detention, Deportation, and Border Control【電子書籍】 3,738 円

<p>Reverend George D. Johnsons Whats Wrong With Society and Can it Be Fixed? was written as a backdrop to the tragic events of Columbine High School in Colorado. It is a short and to the point treatise that sets a powerful stage for telling us about some of the ills of society. Whats Wrong With Society informs us that societys ills are truly due to a moral breakdown in the soul and character of America. Whats Wrong With Society also informs us that we must practice what we preach, practice what we know is right, and practice love. Johnson writes that the average educational level in American society today is 9th grade. With this said, no wonder we have a moral breakdown in society today. The unlearned simply cannot teach or appear to unwillingly want to be taught. The learned are too busy trying to fattened their pockets and commit grand larceny through the system in order to achieve their material goals to live comfortably and large in society. The sins we commit are the problems of society such as systematic grand theft, petty thievery, sexual immorality, child abuse (child neglect, abandonment, molestation, etc.), spousal abuse, lack of love for each other, racism, sexism, classism, to name a few. Whats Wrong With Society basically tells us that MEism is a major problem. Too many people in society are concerned ONLY about themselves. They are interested only in what is good for them, what is bad for them, what is possible for them and what they can get and how much of it they can get at the expense of others. That is, Whats Wrong With Society informs us that people are basically selfish: the big I and little YOU. Whats Wrong With Society provides us with a myriad of scripture to help us get back on a moral track. It provides us with hope. Johnson tells us that, The great Teacher told us when He was on earth that after His death and resurrection He would come again to establish His Kingdom here on earth. Likewise, The Apostle Paul who was probably the second greatest teacher on earth echoed almost the same words some thirty or forty years later, according to Johnson. These are encouraging statements. When the great Teacher, our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ returns, we have hope that the ills of all societies will be corrected. However, only those individuals who accept the great Teacher as Lord and Savior of their souls will be better equipped to deal with the ills of society before our great Teacher returns, if they walk by faith. Johnson implores us to take one day at a time and be doers of Gods Word. When individuals truly obey Gods word, they will see the fruit of Gods blessings.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 What's Wrong with Society and Can It Be Fixed?【電子書籍】[ George D.

<p><strong>“Translated with grace and precision . . . gives us a rare glimpse of how Asian religion and life appeared from the perspective of the Tibetan plateau.” ーJanet Gyatso, Harvard University</strong></p> <p>In 1941, philosopher and poet Gendun Chopel sent a manuscript by ship, train, and yak across mountains and deserts to his homeland in Tibet. He would follow it five years later, returning to his native land after twelve years in India and Sri Lanka. But he did not receive the welcome he imagined: he was arrested by the government of the regent of the young Dalai Lama on trumped-up charges of treason. He emerged from prison three years later a broken man and died soon after. Gendun Chopel was a prolific writer, yet he considered that manuscript, to be his life’s work, one to delight his compatriots with tales of an ancient Indian and Tibetan past, Now available for the first time in English, <em>Grains of Gold</em> is a unique compendium of South Asian and Tibetan culture that combines travelogue, drawings, history, and ethnography. Chopel describes the world he discovered in South Asia, from the ruins of the sacred sites of Buddhism to the Sanskrit classics he learned to read in the original. He is also sharply, often humorously critical of the Tibetan love of the fantastic, bursting one myth after another and finding fault with the accounts of earlier Tibetan pilgrims. The work of an extraordinary scholar, <em>Grains of Gold</em> is a compelling work animated by a sense of discovery of both a distant past and a strange present.</p> <p>“The magnum opus of arguably the single most brilliant Tibetan scholar of the twentieth century.” ーLauran Hartley, Columbia University</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 Grains of Gold Tales of a Cosmopolitan Traveler【電子書籍】[ Gendun Chopel ] 5,016 円

<p>A new era of political power has arrived, one in which the social media forces of Facebook, YouTube, and Twitter indisputably play a larger role in the political process. In this revised and expanded edition of Political Communication: The Manship School Guide, edited by Robert Mann and David D. Perlmutter, contributors discuss technological changes in the context of studies and techniques that remain unchallenged, resulting in a truly comprehensive manual of the world of political communication.<br /> This shift in communication began with Howard Dean's social media interaction between voters and candidates. Later, Barack Obama redefined these techniques during his march to the White House. This intriguing development in political campaigns focuses the impact of social media on political consultation and communication, and this volume provides an up-to-date and peerless guide to the events, methods, technologies, venues, theories, and applications of political dialogues.<br /> More than just a how-to primer, this new edition also expertly explains the process behind the political engine. Political Communication: The Manship School Guide includes individual essays that tackle the growing myths revolving around politics, such as the political money-monster and the "Mr. Smith Goes to Washington"--candidate fantasy.<br /> Twenty-seven chapters from a variety of contributors -- including academics, journalists, and political professionals -- provide insightful, astute, and critical essays for a deeper understanding of political communication and the many roles the public has played in twenty-first-century politics.<br /> With this second edition, Political Communication: The Manship School Guide offers readers a valuable resource that clarifies the confusing world of politics.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 Political Communication The Manship School Guide【電子書籍】[ Monica Ancu ] 2,265 円

<p>The contexts for becoming a parent are ever-changing, bringing new opportunities and new challenges. Becoming a Parent examines the transition to parenthood from diverse perspectives ? it is about becoming, rather than being a parent. Drawing on a large body of theory and research, the book explores universal psychological journeys as well as the specific challenges faced by those whose pathways to parenthood are non-traditional or medically complicated. It also examines the unprecedented reproductive choices in contemporary society and provides a comprehensive overview of the personal and social impact of reproductive technologies. Pregnancy, childbirth, and early parenthood (the so-called 'fourth trimester') are discussed in detail and illustrated with case anecdotes and personal stories of people with 'high-risk' pregnancies, fathers as well as mothers, adoptive parents, and LGBTQ as well as heterosexual adults. It concludes with social and policy initiatives that can better support positive adaptation during this crucial life transition.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 Becoming a Parent Contemporary Contexts and Challenges during the Transition to Parenthood【電子書籍】[ Catherine McMahon ] 3,738 円

<p>Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Fred Hampton, the chairman of the Illinois Black Panther Party, spoke at a church in Chicago in August 1969. He said, I’m free. I went down to the prison in Menard, thinking we were the vanguard, but down there I got down on my knees and listened and learned from the people. I went down to the valley and picked up the beat of the people. #2 I was eventually asked to be a part of the movement, and I obliged. I became a lawyer for the movement, and I loved it. I was speaking in a quieter voice: I believe I was born not to die in a car wreck or slipping on a piece of ice, but I’m going to be able to die doing the things I was born for. #3 I was born in 1942, in Atlanta. My father, Joseph Haas, was the attorney for the Southern Regional Council, a civic organization concerned with racial inequalities in the South. He worked with civil rights organizers to implement the 1965 Voting Rights Act. #4 I was raised by blacks, as my mother worked with the Atlanta Committee for International Visitors to host African delegations. I learned how to plow behind our mule, Boley, and address her with the commands gee and haw to get her to turn right or left.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 Summary of Jeffrey Haas's The Assassination of Fred Hampton【電子書籍】[ ?

<p>This book contains a global comparative study of implementation and monitoring mechanisms for national disability strategies. It comprises a comparative study that was conducted at international, regional and comparative country levels and that highlights critical success factors in implementing disability strategies or action plans worldwide. It explores emerging synergies between what is required to implement principles of international law contained in the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities and what it is possible to achieve through national policy and systems development. A number of critical success factors for implementing and monitoring strategies are identified, including leadership from government and civil society, participation of disabled people in implementation and monitoring, transparency and accountability in reporting on progress, independent monitoring and external review, and the ability to measure progress with indicators of disability equality.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 From Rhetoric to Action Implementing the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities【電子書籍】[ Eilion?ir Flynn ] 5,554 円

<p><strong>An exploration of social movement media practices in an increasingly complex media ecology, through richly detailed cases of immigrant rights activism.</strong></p> <p>For decades, social movements have vied for attention from the mainstream mass mediaーnewspapers, radio, and television. Today, many argue that social media power social movements, from the Egyptian revolution to Occupy Wall Street. Yet, as Sasha Costanza-Chock reports, community organizers know that social media enhance, rather than replace, face-to-face organizing. The revolution will be tweeted, but tweets alone do not the revolution make. In <em>Out of the Shadows, Into the Streets!</em> Costanza-Chock traces a much broader social movement media ecology. Through a richly detailed account of daily media practices in the immigrant rights movement, the book argues that there is a new paradigm of social movement media making: transmedia organizing. Despite the current spotlight on digital media, Costanza-Chock finds, social movement media practices tend to be cross-platform, participatory, and linked to action. Immigrant rights organizers leverage social media creatively, even as they create media ranging from posters and street theater to Spanish-language radio, print, and television.</p> <p>Drawing on extensive interviews, workshops, and media organizing projects, Costanza-Chock presents case studies of transmedia organizing in the immigrant rights movement over the last decade. Chapters focus on the historic mass protests against the anti-immigrant Sensenbrenner Bill; coverage of police brutality against peaceful activists; efforts to widen access to digital media tools and skills for low-wage immigrant workers; paths to participation in DREAM activism; and the implications of professionalism for transmedia organizing. These cases show us how savvy transmedia organizers work to strengthen movement identity, win political and economic victories, and transform public consciousness forever.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 Out of the Shadows, Into the Streets!

<p>Y a-t-il des valeurs morales objectives capables d'unir les hommes et de leur procurer paix et bonheur ? Existerait-il une loi qui pourrait s'appliquer pour un gouvernement mondial ? Ces questions sont capitales. La r?flexion est d'autant plus n?cessaire que la notion m?me d'?thique universelle est souvent contest?e ? cause de la d?structuration des intelligences et des consciences et par le relativisme ambiant.

<p>As younger generations drift away from evangelical churches, the number of religiously unaffiliated young adults grows. Is the drift because of politics, personal morality, rebelliousness, culture wars, or something else? In this project, 16 young adults from the Churches of Christ participate in qualitative interviews over a five-year span. They describe messages they learned about success and survival from their faith communities as children, and how they have embraced and reinterpreted those messages into helpful life principles as adults. The resulting study explores issues of ethnicity in evangelical borderland communities and contrasts Latinx narratives with white narratives in religious and educative contexts. Findings also revealed gendered narratives, class-based narratives, and the glaring absence of helpful narratives around sexuality, filtered through the lenses of religion and education. The central finding of the interviews is this: participants experienced the Church of Christ as rewarding conformity with community, a strategy (when it works) which secures the future of the denomination and cements a conservative doctrine in the next generation of leadership. However, the study concludes that true survival narratives were the narratives participants constructed in response to the narratives provided by Churches of Christ.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 “Same Is Better” A Qualitative Study of Latinx and White Young Adults in Churches of Christ in the Southwestern U.S.【電子書籍】[ Cari Myers ] 6,302 円
