This paper aims to analyze craft objects that could contain inherent meanings of social, cultural, ecological or political resistance. The creative processes of makers from the Iku and Nasa indigenous peoples of Colombia and the Sami people of Sweden have been studied. The paper encompasses a theoretical reflection on the communicative capacity of objects and their implicit meanings as well as of the basic concepts of resistance and craft paired with a brief description of the Iku, Nasa and Sami indigenous peoples. An analysis of the manifestations that could be considered as resistance in the studied artisanal processes is brought forward through 11 interviews with artisans and the paper proposes a final reflection on how craft objects can have the capacity to communicate social, cultural, political and ecological resistance.

Artistic Research

This article offers a theoretical reflection and practical proposals from the HeterotRópico artistic laboratory, a nomadic laboratory - where we are investigating dance, performance, physical theater, in conjunction with other diverse social technologies. They bring tools to activate collective practices developed within open creative processes. We will focus on the seminar lab I have proposed at the Masters in Arts Practice and Visual Culture 2018-2019 in Madrid, bringing together an intercultural group of artists and thinkers of around practices of trans-disciplinary arts. Artistic laboratories, in the diverse formats that they are defined today, aim to activate a field of subjectivities and corporeality, explored and co-produced in their uniqueness during the artistic process.

Role Playing Game

The article covers issues related to the psychology of KG Jung, namely with the transcendent function of the psyche. The basic concepts and provisions of the analytical approach of KG Jung are considered such as archetype, collective unconsciousness, player position, transcendence, transcendental function and others. The authors investigates such things as transcendent function of psyche as a necessary mental factor for the successful beginning and transference of the individuation process and relations between it and board role games. The article also pays attention to such an issue as the importance of creative activity manifestations for the normalization of the work of the transcendental function and the psyche as a whole. The phenomenon of board role games as manifestations of creative activity is considered. The study of the phenomenon of board role games and their possible connection with the state of the transcendent function of the psyche is considered due to the fact that board role games have gained significant popularity among young people. Peculiarities of game as a type of human activity and board role games in the process of transcendental function development of psyche are determined. The main types of role-playing games in general are named. Definitions of the basic concepts inherent in the subculture of board role-playing games today are given. The authors consider that during the board role-playing game, there is a violent activity of the collective unconscious archetypes, which in turn entails the need to use the transcendental function of the psyche of the players in order to become aware of these undefined mental contents. Based on the above, we can say that the article may be useful for professionals interested in the relationship of the Jungian approach with creative processes, namely its practical side, the importance of modern youth subcultures. Considering the results of the research, the conclusion was made that board role games are the factor in the development of the transcendental function of the psyche.

AbstractCountry music has a reputation for being the music of the American white working-class South and being closely aligned with conservative politics. However, country music has also been played by non-white minorities and has been a vivid way of expressing progressive political views. In the hands of the Indigenous peoples of Australia, country music has often given voice to a form of life-writing that critiques colonial power. The songs of Dougie Young, dating from the late 1950s, provide one of the earliest and most expressive examples of this use of country music. Young's songs were a type of social-realist satire and to be fully understood should be placed within the broader socio-political context of 1950s and 1960s Australia. Young's legacy was also important for Aboriginal musicians in the 1990s and the accompanying reassessment of Australia's colonial past. Country music has provided particular opportunities for minority and Indigenous groups seeking to use popular culture to tell their stories. This use of country music provides a new dimension to more conventional understandings of its political role.

From self-government to government of the self: Fiscal subjectivity, Indigenous governance and the politics of transparency

Transparency And Disclosure

In 2013 the Canadian Parliament passed the First Nations Financial Transparency Act (FNFTA). Subject to immediate controversy, the law generated legal and political resistance from Indigenous leaders and scholars. The law requires First Nations governments to post audited consolidated financial statements and the salaries of chiefs and councillors online for public consumption. The article traces the use of transparency as a technology of government to examine how disclosure acts as an organizing mechanism of commensuration and moral scrutiny. The article then shows how transparency and disclosure was directed to rescale critique of the state away from the Canadian government, and toward First Nations governments. The article concludes by examining how bureaucrats envisioned how Indigenous peoples would use transparency and disclosure to reform their political conducts into that of a calculating taxpayer citizenship.

7. Some Critical Reflections on the Counter-Education of Gur-Ze’ev and the Abductive Reasoning of Peirce

Critical Reflections

Abstract This essay seeks to promote a philosophical-theoretical reflection on the interrelationship of the abductive reasoning of Peirce with the philosophical ideas of the counter-education project of Gur-Ze’ev. This is expressed in the question: Is abduction the most widely used type of reasoning in diasporic philosophy and counter-education? Starting from this question, we present the basic concepts of the authors, and then initiate an approximate dialogue between the central concepts. We believe it is possible, through the characteristics demanded by the principles proposed by Gur-Ze’ev, to conclude that abductive reasoning is the predominant mode of logic in diasporic philosophy and of counter-education.

General Orientation

After a providing a general orientation to the post-colonial interpretation of the book of Revelation, this chapter treats the term post-colonial as a chronological and hermeneutical description. The chapter defines the terms postmillennialism and premillennialism, and then uses them to describe the uses of Revelation to celebrate the reach of imperial dominion in the Constantinian era, to chart the uses of the Apocalypse in interpreting the discovery and settlement of America, and its deployment by Indigenous peoples in the South Pacific and North America to resist colonization. It identifies uses of imperial language in the book of Revelation and describes the book’s relationship to the Roman Empire as one of entanglement rather than opposition. This leads to an exploration of Revelation using the post-colonial hermeneutical concepts of catachresis, mimicry, and hybridity. The Apocalypse reflects a hybrid Roman colonial location that imitates imperial discourse in paradoxical ways to promote political resistance and to exhort its audience to faithfulness.

Linguistic Intervention

Test-teach questioning is a strategy that can be used to help children develop basic concepts. It fosters the use of multisensory exploration and discovery in learning which leads to the development of cognitive-linguistic skills. This article outlines some of the theoretical bases for this approach and indicates possibilities for their applications in child-clinician transactions.

And Function

The search for best practices in hearing aid fittings and aural rehabilitation has generally used the audiogram and function stemming from peripheral sensitivity. In recent years, however, we have learned that individuals respond differently to various hearing aid and aural rehabilitation techniques based on cognitive abilities. In this paper, we review basic concepts of working memory and the literature driving our knowledge in newer concepts of hearing aid fitting and aural rehabilitation.
