Transcending the Game : Debate, Education, and Society
A pathway to community, growth, and change This collection of inclusive essays explores the role of debate in understanding and critiquing injustice and inequality.Edited by Shawn F. Briscoe, these essays closely examine multiple approaches to debate, considering their respective merits and controversies.This detailed compilation analyzes how debate methodologies are useful in everyday life and whether certain approaches have any value at all. Briscoe provides an in-depth look into the varying styles of debate and contributes to a greater understanding of argument theory by discussing three stylistic approaches: audience-centered, technical/progressive, and non-traditional/performative.The book demonstrates that all three approaches offer students opportunity to engage in a socioemotional learning space, a discipline that prepares students for undergraduate and graduate work, a study that prepares participants for future careers, and a field that investigates current controversies and how to tackle them.Briscoe offers compelling narratives from BIPOC, LGBTQIA, and women authors that explore the personal impact of debate on social equality within this academic discipline, our educational system, and society. The diversity in gender and race of the contributing authors allows for a multitude of perspectives on the complex styles, benefits, and issues discussed in Transcending the Game.Briscoe peels back the mystery that shrouds the benefits of academic, competitive debate from outsiders and insiders alike.A myriad of personal narratives tell stories about the role of debate in their lives; challenge the unproductive discourse in debate, education, and society; and offer diverse insight into why we debate.

Refugees in Higher Education : Debate, Discourse and Practice
Despite growing attention and focus, the issues with refugee access, participation, and success in higher education detailed in the first edition stubbornly remain, magnified by intensifying international conflict, as well as the impacts of COVID on universities.The second edition of Refugees in Higher Education contains new sections focused on issues of race and racialisation, treatment of people seeking asylum in both national contexts, and international efforts to respond to issues with refugee access to higher education, including international educational complementary pathways, and national sanctuary movements. Offering an up-to-date review of the international literature, this new edition captures the contemporary forced migration, displacement, and resettlement policy and practice landscape – internationally and in the specific resettlement countries of the UK and Australia the ‘post-COVID’ higher education context – and what this highlighted about the participation of refugee students.A new case study brings real experience of educational pathways for refugees, alongside a greater focus on ethical engagement. This updated edition of Refugees in Higher Education provides a much-needed contemporary account of the context in which refugee education scholars, advocates, and students themselves are operating in, detailing how universities in Australia and the United Kingdom can extend access to refugee education globally.

The Avocado Debate
Whether smashed on toast or hailed as a superfood, the avocado has taken the world by storm, but what are the environmental and social impacts of this trendy fruit?This book does not seek to demonise the avocado and its many enthusiasts.Instead, it will illuminate consumers on the often unseen impacts of foods.A staple of cafes, restaurants, homes, and social media channels, demand for the avocado has grown exponentially over the past thirty years.From an everyday crop in South and Central America to a global phenomenon, this drastic change in demand has many consequences for people and the planet.As demand grows, so does the need for more land, with land clearances threatening habitats and biodiversity.As production grows, so does global distribution and the impacts that air and sea travel have on the environment.The shift from a local to a global product disturbs the local food system, raising serious questions around food sovereignty and food justice and the importance of establishing an agricultural system that is both environmentally and socially just.While focusing here on the avocado, this book allows readers to gain a better understanding of the food system as a whole.In doing so, it empowers us all to think carefully and critically about the environmental and ethical implications of our food choices more broadly.We shouldn’t feel guilty about eating avocados, we should simply understand the impact of doing so. This book is essential reading for all who are interested in learning more about the food system, sustainable diets, and the relationship between farming and the environment.

The Feudalism Debate
This volume arose as part of global interest in the problematic of feudalism in the 1980s, opening up both its theoretical premises and the empirical basis to extensive, deep, and varied explorations.Most exploration were grounded in Marxist theory. In 1981, Harbans Mukhia’s essay, ‘Was There Feudalism in Indian History?’ was published in The Journal of Peasant Studies, which triggered an international debate on the problem in the journal’s special issue in 1985 and some subsequent issues.Among the central questions was the tension between the Marxist conception of capitalism as the first world system and several Marxist historians’ construction of feudalism as a universal category.The spatial dimensions of the problem were extended to include China, Turkey, and Arabia, besides Europe and India, in the course of the debate.The questioning of some of the received wisdom understandably leads to both fierce defence on its behalf as well as further questions.
