"This book explores a central contradiction of 21st century economy and society: the more morally and politically unaccountable capitalism and capitalists are, the more accountable the mass majority of its subjects must become. The technocratic ideology and surveillance culture of our modern marketized societies hides a deeper reality of a free market that is unmanageable and a corporate elite whose actions cannot be traced let alone regulated. This work highlights the paradoxical way an often disjointed and unjustifiable modern neoliberalism persists through subjecting individuals and communities to a wide range of technical and ethical 'accounting' in all areas of contemporary life. These pervasive practices of monitoring and codifying everything and everyone mask how at its heart this system and its elites remain socially uncontrollable and ethically out of control"--Publisher's description.MonitoredCorporationsPolitical activityCorporationsCorrupt practicesElectronic surveillanceLibertyBig dataSocial aspectsPrivacy, Right ofCorporationsPolitical activity.CorporationsCorrupt practices.Electronic surveillance.Liberty.Big dataSocial aspects.Privacy, Right of.322.3Bloom Peter(Social science teacher),793710NjHacINjHaclBOOK9910476793203321Monitored3395686UNINA04167nam 22005535 450 991030059030332120200703011230.0981-10-8366-510.1007/978-981-10-8366-2(CKB)4100000004244304(DE-He213)978-981-10-8366-2(MiAaPQ)EBC5387266(EXLCZ)99410000000424430420180509d2018 u| 0engurnn|008mamaatxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierGrowing Up Gay in Urban India A Critical Psychosocial Perspective /by Ketki Ranade1st ed. 2018.Singapore :Springer Singapore :Imprint: Springer,2018.1 online resource (XVII, 169 p.) 981-10-8365-7 Includes bibliographical references.Chapter 1 Growing Up Gay: Interrogating Disciplinary Frames -- Chapter 2 Researching Same-Sex Sexuality -- Chapter 3 Exploring Early Years: Childhood & Adolescence of Young Gay And Lesbian Persons -- Chapter 4 Exploring Identity Development & the Symbolic Meaning/s of ‘Coming Out’ in the Process of Identity Work -- Chapter 5 Living life as a queer person: Role of intimate relationships and queer community/s in consolidation of identity -- Chapter 6 Living Life As A Queer Person - Role Of Queer Community/S In Consolidation Of Identity -- Chapter 7 In Lieu of a Conclusion.This book explores the growing up experiences of gay and lesbian individuals within their homes, schools, neighbourhoods, among friends; and their journeys of finding themselves and their communities while living in a heterosexually constructed society. It is based on an exploratory, qualitative study with young gay and lesbian persons in two cities of Maharashtra, India and employs a life course perspective. The author has written this book from two primary loci: those of a mental health professional and activist, and a queer feminist activist. Through layered narratives and psychosocial analyses of experiences that are simultaneously attentive to subjectivities and to social and interpersonal processes, the author provides insights into the lives of children who grow up feeling ‘different’ from their siblings, peers and friends, and receive constant messages about correct ways of being and expression from their parents, teachers, friends and counsellors/doctors; the unique challenges to growing up as gay or lesbian, alongside complex processes involved in the decision of ‘coming out’; and the experience of meeting others like oneself, forming intimate, romantic relationships, bonds of friendship, political solidarity, families of choice and so on. In this book, the author employs a critical stance towards mainstream life span development studies, developmental psychology, child development and childhood studies that make universal assumptions of heteronormativity and gender binarism. This book is of interest to a wide readership, from psychologists, mental health and human rights scholars, to scholars of youth and childhood studies, gender studies, cultural studies, social work, sociology and anthropology. .Queer theorySex (Psychology)Gender expressionCultureGenderQueer Theoryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X35020Gender Studieshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Y20090Culture and Genderhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/411210Queer theory.Sex (Psychology)Gender expression.Culture.Gender.Queer Theory.Gender Studies.Culture and Gender.306.7660954Ranade Ketkiauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut863833BOOK9910300590303321Growing Up Gay in Urban India1928008UNINA
