A team of highly regarded contributors were invited to take a rational look at the future of primary schools, particularly during the first 20 years of the next millennium. They were asked to consider many questions, including: What are the roots of primary education? What is the justification for a radical agenda? How well is the system working and in what ways could it further optimize its effectiveness in the interests of the participants? What is a primary school, and what purpose does it serve, and what ends does it have in view? Are these ends appropriate for the future? This book, then, represents the thinking of key scholars and researchers working in the area of primary education and will be essential reading for those involved with the education of primary-aged children.

Since the early 1990s, the shrine of Ba Chua Xu, the Lady of the Realm, has become the most visited religious site in southern Vietnam, receiving more than a million visitors annually. Mother, benevolent creditor, healer, relationship advisor, business consultant, the Lady of the Realm is one of a group of goddesses whose shrines attract devotees from all corners of rural and urban society. Goddess on the Rise follows these pilgrims' pathways, taking readers on a journey through a cultural landscape of popular rites, beliefs, and exegesis into a world where female deities reign supreme. Philip Taylor's in-depth study of pilgrimage introduces readers to the practical expectations, passions, and controversies that surround the goddesses, bringing to life the effervescence, creativity, and flux of modern Vietnamese religion. Taylor offers important insights into people's everyday experience of the profound economic, cultural, and social transformations underway in this socialist country. An innovative and multidimensional account of translocal religious practice, this sophisticated study, the first of its kind for Vietnam, blurs disciplinary boundaries and disrupts preconceived images.

This Research Handbook critically examines the myriad social and economic inequalities faced by those in later life. Contributors dissect examples from the Global North and South to support a new approach to studying ageing that moves beyond popular discourses.Cognisant of the diversity of ageing populations, the Research Handbook on Inequalities in Later Life outlines ways of rebalancing public policy agendas to consider older persons’ ideas and experiences. Throughout the chapters, experts present thought-provoking insights on ageing in the context of the community and the individual by delving into international case studies. They cover a wide range of issues, including employment, gender, wealth, housing, the ageing body, sexuality, indigenous populations, disability, technology, morbidity and mortality. Presenting a progressive framework that prioritises wellbeing as a public good, the Handbook highlights the importance of social connectedness, older people’s advocacy, and further research into the meaning of successful and active ageing.Comprehensive in scope, this stimulating Research Handbook will be invaluable for scholars of gerontology, sociology, anthropology, development studies, comparative social policy, health, labour policy and public policy. It will also be of benefit to policymakers and practitioners in advocacy organisations.

This insightful study provides an overview of the changing employment context in industrialized nations, the risks associated with population ageing and how these are being tackled.Prolonging working lives is high on the agenda of policy makers in most of the world's major industrialized nations. This book explains how they are keen to tackle issues associated with the ageing of populations, namely the funding of pension systems and predictions concerning a dwindling labour supply. Yet the recent history of older workers has primarily been one of premature exit from the labour force in the form of redundancy or early retirement. Add to this a previously plentiful supply of younger labor and it is clear that much of industry will be unprepared for the challenges of ageing workforces.Older Workers in an Ageing Society includes up-to-date knowledge on issues of workforce ageing and provides useful commentary on policy responses and will appeal to scholars and public policy-makers.Contributors: D.M.
