The Place of Antifascism in Hate Studies: Revisions and Reconsiderations
No full textThe field of hate studies has a complicated relationship with antifascism as philosophy and movement. This dynamic was demonstrated in stark terms in the controversy over an opinion piece published on the Centre for Analysis of the Radical Right blog that castigated antifascists. The controversy that ensued demonstrated some of the tensions within hate studies and among researchers and practitioners in the field. At the core was the question of whether hate studies is an area that is or should be explicitly antifascist in its mission. The work of hate studies focuses on the practices and beliefs that underlie fascist ideology and the systems of domination that it seeks to reinforce. Yet, hate studies as a discipline is presented as politically neutral or apolitical on questions of ideology. The core of the work of hate studies is focused on research and education regarding prejudice and its discriminator and violent manifestations. This overlaps in many ways with the work of antifascist activists who conduct their own research and education projects; however, there is a distinct difference in the solutions proposed by activists versus those of most scholars in this field. Hate studies scholars generally take a position that the solution to the problems they identify is legislative and policy based, whereas antifascist activists generally eschew working within existing structures of power in favor of popular forms of mobilization. This paper will expand on the tensions and contradictions described. I propose that both hate studies and antifascist activism have much to learn from one another that would not only reconcile potential differences and tensions but also strengthen both the scholarly field and activism

Building Resilient Infrastructure in the Face of a Changing Climate
Get PDFAs communities across the nation experience changes to weather patterns, the ability for utility infrastructure (water, internet, and energy) to recover appropriately from storm events is facing unprecedented challenges. Rethinking the way we design and operate basic utility presents an opportunity to build resilient infrastructure. The sidewalk retrofit design concept presented challenges current transportation practices, with the inclusion of bi-facial solar, low frequency broadband, and innovative green infrastructure practices that provide communities with proactive, rather than reactive, utility management solutions.
Kevin Kunz is co-founder of an engineering, procurement, and construction management startup here in Spokane. He is currently focused on the development of a unique integrated utility management system intended to prevent flooding and pollution problems in urban, suburban, and rural neighborhoods while providing resilient utility infrastructure for communities impacted by climate change
Nitrous Oxide Administration in General Anesthesia Patients: Preliminary Findings
No full textNitrous oxide (N2O) is an inexpensive, fast-acting, and relatively hemodynamically stable gas used in anesthesia. It is used in the induction and maintenance of anesthesia in a variety of inpatient and outpatient settings. Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is one of the most common adverse events after anesthesia, and nitrous oxide has long been linked to contributing to postoperative nausea and vomiting
Teaching Trauma Theory and Practice in Counselor Education: A Multiple Case Study
Get PDFTeaching about trauma theory and practice is an integral part of counselor preparation. The purpose of this multiple case study was to understand how counselor educators (CEs) designed and facilitated significant learning experiences regarding trauma theory and practice. The researchers aimed to answer two research questions (1.) how do CEs choose which content to address in trauma courses and (2.) which teaching methods do CEs use to facilitate significant learning experiences in trauma courses? The study participants were three CEs teaching trauma courses in multiple formats (face-to-face, online, and hybrid) in CACREP programs. The results indicated that instructors faced unique situational factors that impacted their choice of teaching and learning activities and assessment measures. The themes Instructor Role, Instructor Identity, and Eliciting Fundamental Change in Learners impacted which teaching methods were chosen to facilitate significant learning experiences. The manuscript includes implications for CEs designing and teaching trauma courses
Displacement and Replacement: The Political History of David Duke, Patrick Buchanan, and Racial Resentment
Get PDFIn the late 1980s and early 1990s, David Duke and Patrick Buchanan drew on long-running discourses about White replacement and displacement in their political campaigns. Duke, former leader of the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan, used White displacement fears to earn elected office in the Louisiana state legislature. He then ran for governor, senator, and president, but was thwarted in these campaigns partly thanks to Black voters. Duke’s presidential ambitions were also undercut by the journalist and television personality Patrick Buchanan, who coopted Duke’s message to seize his base. Despite trying several times, however, Buchanan was also unable to win the presidency. His main achievement was to push the Republican Party rightward, paving the way for the racialized populism of Tucker Carlson and Donald Trump
Servant-Leadership and the Christian Non-Profit Senior Leader: A Study on How Servant-Leadership Influences Growth
Get PDFThis study aimed to identify the relationship between senior leaders of Christian non-profit organizations that exhibit servant-leadership and the organizational growth of Christian non-profit organizations. This study focused on the servant-leadership style within Christian non-profit organizations, and the servant-leadership qualities are measured using the Servant-Leadership Questionnaire (SLQ). This quantitative study examined the relationship between senior leaders\u27 servant-leadership and Christian non-profit organizations\u27 growth. The study provides data from Christian non-profit organizations on their organizational growth in the categories of numerical growth, mentorship, and service opportunities in the last three years
A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words: Using Photovoice Methodology to Explore Perceptions of Servant-Leadership During International Service-Learning
Get PDFHealthcare education programs are tasked to develop the leadership capacity of students in the preparation for them to become future healthcare providers who can holistically address the needs of complex communities and our society at large. Educational institutions often look to experiential learning opportunities where students can be active participants in the exploration of new leadership behaviors. In particular, service-learning experiences may help support the development of servant leadership qualities. These experiences and qualities both aid in the development of empathetic, inclusive practitioners and professions. A gap in literature exists on health profession students’ perceptions of these experiences and if they are influential to the development of servant leadership behaviors, thus warranting further examination. This paper is a qualitative investigation of servant-leadership using Photovoice methodology. Graduate healthcare students studied the concepts of servant-leadership then engaged in an international service-learning opportunity. Broad and deep contextualization of photographs taken during the time abroad explored the five themes of servant leadership: stewardship, partnership, obligation, emotional healing, and elevated purpose. A novel finding was the emergence of intentionally actioned cultural awareness within healthcare service delivery with the authors newly defining the term, cultural humilitence. Conclusions were drawn that support strong researcher and student-generated contextualization alignment with literature-based constructs of leadership and service, and the need for investment by institutions to cultivate experiences (domestic and international) which build interprofessional, transprofessional, and culturally aware teams
Servant-Leadership in the Military: An Investigation of Servant-Leadership among Technical Sergeants in the United States Air Force
Get PDFServant-Leadership, developed by Greenleaf (1970), is a leadership theory which prioritizes the follower. Greenleaf contended that putting others first as leaders could lead to a change in society. Patterson (2003) developed a model from Greenleaf’s theory which identified several attributes of the Servant-Leadership model including agapao love, humility, altruism, vision, trust, empowerment, and service. In the military, researchers have used Patterson’s construct to conclude that Servant-Leadership does exist in the military. Though some research involving Servant-Leadership and the military has been conducted, there is a dearth in the literature. In the United States Air Force, leadership development for Non-Commissioned Officers specifically focuses on teaching leadership theories aligning with the Air Force Core Values. Servant-Leadership theory is not currently taught in Air Force Core Values or connected to leadership training. Therefore, the current study links Servant-Leadership and Air Force Core Values and advocates for inclusion of Servant-Leadership in military training
