No full textALOHA is Intelligence: A Case Study of a Culturally Responsive Framework for Evaluation Capacity Building
Full text linkThe Aloha Evaluation Framework is a culturally responsive evaluation approach that has been developed for use in Indigenous communities. Guided by the concept of Aloha (love) as conceptualized by kūpuna (elder) ʻAnakē Pilahi Pāki, the framework is based on the values of respect, empowerment, collaboration, and sustainability, and emphasizes the importance of building evaluation capacity within the community. Aloha is defined as Akahai (gentleness), Lōkahi (harmony), ʻOluʻolu (agreeableness), Haʻahaʻa (humility) and Ahonui (patience); the synthesis of which describes different attributes of love and ultimately the spirit of Aloha. This paper describes the use of the Aloha Evaluation Framework as an approach in an evaluation capacity building effort within a Native Hawaiian serving organization. The positive feedback from the evaluation training series demonstrates the value of incorporating Aloha and its various forms of love into evaluation as a practice. The results have implications for ways to privilege the values and voices of Indigenous communities in evaluation
Self-in-Relation: Seeking Understanding and Transformation through Indigenous Métissage
Full text linkIn this article, I consider the narrative practice of Indigenous Métissage as a creative, subversive praxis to help understand my identity as a settler in Canada and how settler colonialism has shaped my relationship to Indigenous peoples, history, and Land in Canada. Given the hermeneutic roots of Indigenous Métissage, I suggest it is a research approach that can handle the complexities inherent in these relationships while also providing imagination and hope for transformation. I discuss how personal, and family stories can be textually braided with larger national narratives to draw attention to similarities and differences with the hopes of provoking understanding and new ways of seeing Indigenous and settler relations
No seduction, no harm: Public acceptance of pedophilia in Norway in the 1970s
No full textIn 1975 a group of pedophile Norwegian men founded an organization to promote legalization of sex between adults and children: The Norwegian Working Group for Pedophilia (NAFP). They were part of an international pedophile movement launched in the Netherlands a few years earlier. Through the 1970s, the NAFP and their close ally, the psychologist and sexologist Thore Langfeldt, were able to promote pedophilia and sex between adults and children without any significant backlash. This article is an attempt to explain public acceptance for pedophilia in Norway in the 1970s. Previous attempts to explain acceptance of pedophilia in various European countries in the 1970s and 80s have primarily seen it as one aspect of the ‘sexual revolution’: a period from the mid-1960s to the late 1970s, which saw a broad liberalization of sexual norms, including sexual emancipation of women and increased acceptance for non-normative sexual orientations. While this article does not reject the ‘sexual revolution’ explanation, it argues that other explanatory factors are equally or more important. These factors have more to do with the continuation of patriarchy and heteronormativity than with any revolt against them. The first is the contemporaneous state of psychological research and expert opinion. According to many psychologists and other experts, sex between children and adults could be consensual, in which case it was also harmless. However, this state of psychological research and expert opinion was not new in the 1970s and cannot explain why the 1970s saw an unprecedented level of acceptance for pedophilia. The second explanatory factor is the prevalence of a seduction theory of homosexuality. For a long time prior to the legalization of sex between men in 1972, debates about legalization had focused on whether adolescent same-sex sexual experiences could lead to permanent homosexuality. When, in 1972, members of the Norwegian parliament voted to legalize sex between men without introducing a heightened age of consent, they had become convinced that someone above that age, 16, could not be seduced into permanent homosexuality. It was widely believed, however, that seduction into homosexuality was possible for someone below the age of 16. This meant that the legalization of sex between men in 1972 opened a discursive window in which sex between adults and children could be defended by criticizing the seduction theory of homosexuality
Threats IN, TO, and THROUGH East of Greenland: Impliciations for Canadian Defence
No full textThe waters and airspace east of Greenland are a nexus of Canadian defence concerns. Here, the Russian Arctic Bastion defence borders the sea lines of communication (SLOC) between North America and Europe and is becoming an increasingly important stage for international strategic competition. East of Greenland also marks the boundary between the waters of the European Arctic and those of North America. The strategic space east of Greenland is of tremendous and growing importance for NATO and Russia. While there are threats “in” and “to” this region, most of these military threats are intended to open the way “through” towards North America. Contributing military capabilities to this vital region could be a barometer for Canadian defence credibility with its allies and a means to maximizing their effectiveness
