Urban Exile : Theories, Methods, Research Practices
Explores cities of exile from different perspectives and presents different methods and sources for exile and urban studies.The essays are written by internationally recognized scholars, and contain a wide range of themes including mapping, oral history, queerness, photography.This book will make a significant contribution to the theory and methodology of research on historical exile, cities and modernities, as well as present multidisciplinary exile research from an urban perspective. With a blend of case studies, and theoretical approaches, it interweaves histories of modernism and exile in different urban environments and focuses on historical dislocations in the first half of the twentieth century, when artistic and urban movements constituted themselves in global exchange.Although this book takes a historical perspective, it is written with an awareness of current flight movements and will make a significant contribution to the theory and methodology of research on exile. The knowledge of previous historical exile experiences is important for the understanding of contemporary flight movements: after all, these are not singular phenomena.For migration movements in the first half of the 20th century and for those of today, it is equally possible to speak of urban centres of attraction for refugees: Today, Berlin is a European metropolis of exile; in the 1930s and 1940s, Paris, Prague, London, New York, Istanbul and Shanghai were destinations for refugees. With contributions from Maddalena Alvi, Ekaterina Aygün, Claudia Cendales Paredes, Julia Eichenberg, Margit Franz, Nils Grosch, Mareike Hetschold, Louis Kaplan, Laura Karp Lugo, Katya Knyazeva, Merve Köksal, Rachel Lee, Chris McConville, Anna Messner, Alexis Nuselovici, Robert Pascoe, Valentina Pino Reyes, Helene Roth, Valeria Sánchez Michel, Marine Schütz, Seza Sinanlar Uslu, Felicitas Söhner, Mareike Schwarz, Marina Sorokina, Xin Tong, Diana Wechsler, Jessica Williams Stark and Federico Vitelli.

Youth Resistance Research and Theories of Change
Youth resistance has become a pressing global phenomenon, to which many educators and researchers have looked for inspiration and/or with chagrin.Although the topic of much discussion and debate, it remains dramatically under-theorized, particularly in terms of theories of change.Resistance has been a prominent concern of educational research for several decades, yet understandings of youth resistance frequently lack complexity, often seize upon convenient examples to confirm entrenched ideas about social change, and overly regulate what "counts" as progress.As this comprehensive volume illustrates, understanding and researching youth resistance requires much more than a one-dimensional theory.Youth Resistance Research and Theories of Change provides readers with new ways to see and engage youth resistance to educational injustices.This volume features interviews with prominent theorists, including Signithia Fordham, James C.Scott, Michelle Fine, Robin D.G. Kelley, Gerald Vizenor, and Pedro Noguera, reflecting on their own work in light of contemporary uprisings, neoliberal crises, and the impact of new technologies globally.Chapters presenting new studies in youth resistance exemplify approaches which move beyond calcified theories of resistance.Essays on needed interventions to youth resistance research provide guidance for further study.As a whole, this rich volume challenges current thinking on resistance, and extends new trajectories for research, collaboration, and justice.
