Checkpoint: Turning Discourse To Dialogue, Stephanie Kent

Stephanie Jo Kent

This book is an in-depth examination of education and media under occupation. The contributors to this volume engage dialogue to explore these domains and their roles and functioning under occupation while keeping an eye toward resolution, using the on-going conflict between Palestine and Israel as the focus.

Education and media are exemplified as domains that can either maintain the status quo of oppression when …

Newsgathering And Privacy: Expanding Ethics Codes To Reflect Change In The Digital Media Age, Ginny Whitehouse

Ginny Whitehouse

Media ethics codes concerning privacy must be updated considering the ease with which information now can be gathered from social networks and disseminated widely. Existing codes allow for deception and privacy invasion in cases of overriding public need when no alternate means are available but do not adequately define what constitutes need or alternate means, or weigh in the harm such acts do to the public trust and the profession. Building on the ethics theories of Sissela Bok and Helen Nissenbaum, balancing tests can be developed under a mixed-rule deontology that confines online misrepresentation and exposing the private information of …

Interpreting Psychotherapy: Developing The Interpreter’S Uncommon Sense, Arlyn A. Anderson

Arlyn A. Anderson

She recommends significant shifts in the practice of interpreting in mental health settings, such as increased recognition of the therapeutic alliance and the unique role the interpreter has in its development. She …

Discourse analysis places a primary focus on how things are said; and this close attention to the details of ―language in use‖ can offer insight into a variety of questions posed by researchers across the humanities and social sciences.
