Sommario/riassunto

Extrait : ""La guerre de siège ou de positions, qui a commencé cm lendemain de la bataille des Flandres, a pour caractère essentiel la fixité des fronts. De la mer du Nord aux Vosges, la ligne est continue : aucun des deux adversaires ne prête son flanc à une attaque de l'autre; point de manœuvre possible ; seule l'attaque frontale est réalisable.""

Sommario/riassunto

More than thirty million Americans live in small, out-of-the-way places. Many of them could have joined the vast majority of Americans who live in cities and suburbs. They could live closer to more lucrative careers and convenient shopping, a wider range of educational opportunities, and more robust health care. But they have opted to live differently. In Small-Town America, we meet factory workers, shop owners, retirees, teachers, clergy, and mayors--residents who show neighborliness in small ways, but who also worry about everything from school closings and their children's futures to the ups and downs of the local economy. Drawing on more than seven hundred in-depth interviews in hundreds



of towns across America and three decades of census data, Robert Wuthnow shows the fragility of community in small towns. He covers a host of topics, including the symbols and rituals of small-town life, the roles of formal and informal leaders, the social role of religious congregations, the perception of moral and economic decline, and the myriad ways residents in small towns make sense of their own lives. Wuthnow also tackles difficult issues such as class and race, abortion, homosexuality, and substance abuse. Small-Town America paints a rich panorama of individuals who reside in small communities, finding that, for many people, living in a small town is an important part of self-identity.

Sommario/riassunto

This book highlights that language matters permeate all areas of higher education and that language matters for everyone involved in academic institutions: in policy, in teaching and learning, in administration, in research and in leadership. The chapters in this volume address national, institutional and local levels, and range from legal texts to students' and teachers' stories across disciplines. It provides a useful picture for all those who work in the various fields of higher education. Contributors are: Britt-Marie Apelgren, Tove Bull, Josep Maria Cots, Ann-Marie Eriksson, Sylva Frisk, Lídia Gallego-Balsà, Peter Garrett, Linnea Hanell, Luke Holmes, Niina Hynninen, Kathrin Kaufhold, Maria Kuteeva, Ragnhild Ljosland, Heidi Rontu, Taina Saarinen, Linus Salö and Susanne Strömberg Jämsvi.
