This academic compendium examines the complexities associated with Indian identity in North America, including the various social, political, and legal issues impacting Indian expression in different periods; the European influence on how self-governing tribal communities define the rights of citizenship within their own communities; and the effect of Indian mascots, Thanksgiv

Abstract:

Political Economy of Power Sharing in Developing Countries is an in-depth examination of factors that trigger the clamor for power sharing, zoning and rotation in mostly developing countries. These provocations include geographical, ethnic, and religious identity factors that can influence the political process in varying degrees from country to country. The impact goes a long way in determining the stability and instability of the political process in various countries. The reasons for these differences and the impacts are a combination of the endogenous variables in the first instance, which

Disability status continues to have a significant negative impact on employment outcomes, even in countries with nondiscrimination policies, and outcomes differ by gender and age. These subpar outcomes can be linked to both environmental and psychological factors. The design of jobs and workplaces often limits the ability of workers with disabilities to contribute to their fullest capacity, while stigmatization reduces employer willingness to hire workers with disabilities and make reasonable accommodations to allow them to perform effectively.

This book explores what identity is, what factors contribute to it, how it develops, and the impacts that a strong or weak sense of self can have on a person's health, happiness, and future. Many teens grapple with the seemingly simple question, "Who am I?" and struggle to integrate their experiences at school, at home, and with friends into their burgeoning sense of identity. How teens see themselves can influence the friends they choose, the decisions they make, and their mental and physical well-being.

Abstract:

Asperger’s syndrome was added to the psychiatric disease classifications in DSM-IV (1994), and removed from DSM-5 (2013) almost 20 years later. This is a short life for a psychiatric syndrome. This chapter examines the case in depth in order to see what can be learned from it about appropriate criteria for making changes in the DSM nosology. Scientific criteria, clinical considerations, and patient/family perspectives are considered. In general, I recommend broadening the criteria to include the impact on patient self-understanding and identity.

Abstract:

This chapter examines the boom in Scottish literary fiction during the 1980s and 1990s, and the rhetoric of its presentation as a ‘new renaissance’. With this label came remarkably strong claims for the political efficacy of the contemporary literary novel — a phenomenon that has not attracted the interest it deserves from literary historians outside Scotland. In the two decades prior to devolution, the emergence of formally ambitious Scottish novelists sponsored a conflation of fiction and democracy which figured the novel as the locus of national self-representation and reinvention.

The notion of “Mother Russia” has long played a central role in the articulation of Russian statehood. Drawing on Peterson’s “lens of protection,” this chapter interrogates how “Russia as Motherland” has been utilized to help construct a neopaternalist gender regime and state identity via a narrative of existential threat to Mother Russia from an “Unholy Queer Peril.” This narrative highlights the state’s dogmatic adherence to “traditional” understandings of gender and sexuality, and the chapter explores the impact of the perception of a “queer peril” for practices of statecraft, showing how t

The chapter examines key terms in the liberal epistemological vocabulary such as skepticism, empiricism, nominalism, and conventionalism to clarify their import for the liberal conceptions of personal identity, friend, and enemy.

In drawing or painting from live models and real landscapes, more was at stake for artists in early modern Italy than achieving greater naturalism. To work with the model in front of your eyes, and to retain their identity in the finished work of art, had an impact on concepts of artistry and authorship, the authority of the image as a source of knowledge, the boundaries between repetition and invention, and even the relation of images to words.
