It brings together the idiosyncratic but insightful musings on violence by Slovenian philosopher Slavoj ?i?ek with recent research on mindfulness and violence as a lens. Using this lens, it looks at two exemplary educators and how they taught mindfulness meditation as a way of resisting the types of violence they and their students faced: the Vietnamese Zen teacher Thich Nhat Hanh amidst the brutality of the Second Indochina War (1955-1975), and the African-American studies professor and cultural critic bell hooks in the face of systemic oppression in the United States of the 1980s. Remy Y.S. Low is Senior Lecturer in the Sydney School of Education and Social Work at the University of Sydney, Australia. He is also the author of The Mind and Teachers in the Classroom: Exploring Definitions of Mindfulness (Palgrave MacMillan, 2021). . 606 $aTeaching 606 $aSocial justice 606 $aEducation?Philosophy 606 $aTeachers?Training of 606 $aPedagogy 606 $aSocial Justice 606 $aEducational Philosophy 606 $aTeaching and Teacher Education 606 $aPhilosophy of Education 606 $aEducació$2thub 606 $aFilosofia de l'educació$2thub 606 $aAtenció plena$2thub 606 $aNo-violència$2thub 606 $aCondicions socials$2thub 608 $aLlibres electrònics$2thub 615 0$aTeaching. 615 0$aSocial justice. 615 0$aEducation?Philosophy. 615 0$aTeachers?Training of. 615 14$aPedagogy. 615 24$aSocial Justice. 615 24$aEducational Philosophy. 615 24$aTeaching and Teacher Education. 615 24$aPhilosophy of Education. 615 7$aEducació 615 7$aFilosofia de l'educació 615 7$aAtenció plena 615 7$aNo-violència 615 7$aCondicions socials 676 $a370 700 $aLow$b Remy Y.S$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01354189 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910686789803321 996 $aLearning to Stop$93308940 997 $aUNINA
