1	Whole Teachers: A Holistic Education Perspective on Krishnamurti‘s Educational Philosophy Rathnam, Anbananthan 09 August 2013 (has links) The purpose of this qualitative research study, which utilizes a phenomenological inquiry method, is to inquire into the awareness of what it means to be a whole teacher from the perspective of the philosophy of Jiddu Krishnamurti, a philosopher/spiritual teacher. Four participants (teachers) were interviewed from the Oak Grove School, an alternative, holistic school founded by Krishnamurti in 1974. This inquiry probed into teachers’ thinking, teachers’ lives, teachers’ inner lives, teachers’ contemplative practices, teachers’ calling/vocation and teachers’ pedagogy. The findings of this inquiry reveal the awareness that exists among the participants with regards to their understanding of Krishnamurti’s educational philosophy and the way in which this philosophy has shaped their lives and the lives of their students (both implicit- ly and explicitly) The findings from this research further show that Krishnamurti’s philosophy has certainly had an impact on the participants’ wholeness. Krishnamurti was never interested in imposing his philosophy on the teachers to think in a narrow groove. Rather, he challenged them to arrive at wholeness or a holistic approach towards living by their own volition, by putting aside all philosophy, including his own. This research points towards the possible ways in which wholeness can be developed using: Innate wisdom (teachers’ inner life, teachers’ calling); wisdom gained through experiencing life (teachers’ life, teachers’ thinking); wisdom gained through their teaching experience (teachers’ pedagogy) and wisdom gained through practices that bring harmony to the mind, body and spirit (teachers’ contemplative approaches). An experiential model titled, The Flower Model: An Experiential Metaphor – which integrates the three stages of awareness – was developed using Krishnamurti’s approach towards wholeness. This model can be used to guide teachers with their respective psychological conditionings that reside or exist in their thinking, lives, inner lives, contemplative practices, vocation and pedagogy/curriculum design.

3	Surrogatmodern och den mänskliga värdigheten : En diskursanalys av den statliga utredningen om surrogatmoderskap, ur ett kritiskt postkolonialt feministiskt perspektiv Zanzi Ferrando, Diana January 2019 (has links) Uppsatsen undersöker hur ”SOU 2016:11 Olika vägar till föräldraskap” formulerar problemet med surrogatmoderskap, vilka subjektspositioner som kan urskiljas i utredningen och analyserar den ut ett kritiskt postkolonialt feministiskt perspektiv. Utredningen utgår ifrån mänsklig värdighet, autonomi och barnets bästa vilket uppsatsen belyser får konsekvenser för hur problemet med surrogatarrangemang porträtteras olika beroende på om surrogatmodern och barnet är från det globala syd eller det globala nord. Utgångspunkterna är centrala när surrogatmodern och barnet från det globala nord lyfts men får inte samma roll gällande surrogatmodern och det barn hon föder. Vidare undersöks hur subjektspositioner formuleras utifrån emotionell/icke-emotionell, sårbar/icke-sårbar, skyddsvärd/icke-skyddsvärd och blottlägger hur den svenska surrogatmodern och det inrikesfödda barnet konstrueras som emotionella, sårbara och skyddsvärda vilket skiljer sig från hur den utländska surrogatmodern och det utrikesfödda barnet konstrueras. Dessa omges att tystnad vilket får konsekvenser för hur de porträtteras och för vilka åtgärder som föreslås. Uppsatsen bidrar till en utveckling av tidigare forskning med ett tillägg av nyckelordet skyddsvärd för att undersöka konstrueringen av surrogatmödrar. Uppsatsen visar att begreppet är relevant genom att materialet visat på delvis konstuering av emotionell och sårbar men inte skyddsvärd och att detta påverkat resultat och åtgärder. Vidare stärker uppsatsen tidigare forskning som menar att utgångspunkten mänsklig värdighet verkar för en avhumanisering av surrogatmödrar från det globala syd samt att synen på biologi varierar beroende på var ett barn föds. Uppsatsen bygger vidare på tidigare forskning som menar att uttryckt rationalitet och brist på emotion resulterar i en avhumanisering, genom att blottlägga hur det kan räcka med att subjektspositionerna möts av tysthet för att uppnå samma resultat. Detta arbete belyser hur olika subjektspositioner framställs olika i den statliga utredningen och hur koloniala idéer hänger kvar och påverkar underlag till svensk lagstiftning, samt blottlägger vilka konkreta konsekvenser detta kan få för lagförslag och för surrogatmödrar i det globala syd samt de barn de föder. surrogacy surrogate Commissioning Parents pregnancy pride gay rights gay Deepak Deomampo Gondouin Gupta Lugones Mendes Lau Wilson Bacchi WPR Bauman Goodwin Mills Lewis Chavez Sittirak adoption structural adjustment program sap population control pregnant surrogate mother the coloniality of power pregnancy risks fertility tourism parental order surrogacy arrangements pregnancy risk intended mother assisted reproductive technologies surrogat surrogatmödraskap SOU 2016:11 avreglering fertilitet Insemination IVF provrörsbefruktning donator spermdonator biologiska barn infertilitet Assisterad befruktning livmoder mamma mamma barn barnlöshet ofrivillig barnlöshet pride Deepak Deomampo Gondouin Gupta Lugones Mendes Lau Wilson Bacchi WPR Bauman Goodwin Mills Lewis Chavez Sittirak surrogatmödrarna de nya surrogatmödrarna sexuella övergrepp mot barn barn barnkonventionen europakonventionen eu konstruering diskurs tilltänkta föräldrar surrogatmor surrogatmamma biologiskt band svensk exceptionalism fertilitet adoption klass ras etnicitet kön stratifierad reproduktion fertilitetsturism sap Sexindustri sexturism Malthusianism strukturer värdmödraskap moderskap maktförhållanden makt värderingar mäns våld mot kvinnor kritiskt kritik kritiskt postkolonialt perspektiv perspektiv feministiskt perspektiv reproduktiv hälsa mödraskap varat och varan barns rättigheter föräldraskap hälsa kvinnors hälsa barnets bästa kommersialisering kvinnors rättigheter Olika vägar till föräldraskap altruistiskt surrogatmödraskap fritt val det fria valet frihet surrogatmoderskap utredning mänsklig värdighet mänskliga rättigheter den mänskliga värdigheten kommersiellt surrogatmödraskap altruistiskt surrogatmoderskap sexuella övergrepp handel med barn barnhandel statlig utredning värdmoderskap feminism feministisk teori postkolonial postkolonial teori rasism jämställdhet sexuella rättigheter tredje världen utvecklingsstudier utveckling livmoder livmodershyra hyra livmoder rätt till sin kropp reproduktiva organ reproduktiva rättigheter graviditet riskfylld graviditet exploatering sexuell exploatering globala syd globala nord emotionalitet subjektsposition lagstiftning koloniala idéer kolonialism vientre de alquiler Political Science Statsvetenskap
