Kink-Affirming Practice Culturally Competent Therapy from the Leather Chair

Kink-Affirming Practice is an essential guide on how clinicians can ethically and effectively integrate elements of their client’s BSDM identities and practices into their treatment planning creative interventions and client self-care. Embracing both an anthropological understanding of this diverse yet still marginalized community as well as a sex-positive approach to mental health Stefani Goerlich recognizes the ways in which specific power exchange dynamics can evoke positive behavioral changes in clients and guides the reader in how to integrate these concepts into their clinical work. Chapters discuss the foundations of BDSM what is meant by kink-affirming practice the purpose of claiming power and ceding control integrating and reclaiming identities dominant/submissive personas and the benefits of caregiving kink such as pet play. It practically discusses how to conduct a kink-affirming risk assessment as well as exploring topics like ethical and health boundary setting how to gain informed consent and the unique issues that arise when clinicians catch themselves romancing the kink. This book is invaluable reading for professionals working with clients who engage in BDSM activities such as marriage and family therapists sex therapists clinical social workers and counselors.

Lacanian Psychoanalysis between the Child and the Other Exploring the Cultures of Childhood

Lacanian Psychoanalysis between the Child and the Other Exploring the Cultures of Childhood

Lacanian Psychoanalysis between the Child and the Other explores what topology can contribute to clinical work with children emphasizing that psychoanalytic listening goes beyond the individuals who attend a session. This kind of listening does not seek for what is hidden inside; rather it seeks to create a continuous topological transformation with topology regarded as the most sophisticated way in which structure structuring and playing can be thought. Using Lacan’s theoretical framework the book provides a new perspective on working with children re-examining fundamental Lacanian concepts such as structure subject lack Other clinic and of course child itself. It charts how time and space are knitted together for children in psychoanalysis and how a Lacanian approach can enable clinical practitioners and researchers to venture into cultures of childhood helping them conceptualize and intervene in the process of knitting and unknotting. The book will be of interest to psychoanalytic child clinicians in practice and training as well as researchers in the field of child psychoanalysis. | Lacanian Psychoanalysis between the Child and the Other Exploring the Cultures of Childhood

The Politics of the Elite Ideological Orientations Mothering and Social Mobilities in Neoliberal Chile

The Politics of the Elite Ideological Orientations Mothering and Social Mobilities in Neoliberal Chile

This book is a study of class formation at the top of the social hierarchies during the turbulent and changing early twenty-first century. Contrary to perceptions that privileged individuals exist according to little more than market and economic logics the book provides evidence that they are by no means absent from politics and civic engagement. Adopting a focus on reproduction distinction and politics it delves into the complex relationship between cohesion and fragmentation that exists within the most privileged groups formed over the course of the contemporary neoliberal period. By knitting a dialogue between spatial analysis multiple correspondence analysis and in-depth interviews the book provides insights into the intricate relations between institutions and political subjectivities and the role of space and mothering in the political socialisation of Chile’s most privileged families. The result is a dense description of a social class fragmented by subtle ideological lines based upon economic inheritance socialisation within homogeneous family environments paths into the labour market and social and political activities. This book will constitute a much-needed research resource for academics students and professionals in areas such as elite studies social stratification inequality social reproduction accumulation political socialisation and contemporary conservative/progressive views. | The Politics of the Elite Ideological Orientations Mothering and Social Mobilities in Neoliberal Chile

Brunei – History Islam Society and Contemporary Issues

Brunei – History Islam Society and Contemporary Issues

Brunei although a relatively small state is disproportionately important on account of its rich resource base. In addition in recent years the country has endeavoured to play a greater role in regional affairs especially through ASEAN holding the chair of the organisation in 2013 and also beyond the region fostering diplomatic political economic and educational ties with many nations. This book presents much new research and new thinking on a wide range of issues concerning Brunei largely drawn from Bruneian academics. Subjects covered include Brunei’s rich history – the sultanate formerly had much more extensive territories and was a key player in regional affairs; the country’s economy politics society and ethnicities; and resource issues and international relations. | Brunei – History Islam Society and Contemporary Issues

Biology and Evolution of the Mollusca Volume 1

Molluscs comprise the second largest phylum of animals (after arthropods) occurring in virtually all habitats. Some are commercially important a few are pests and some carry diseases while many non-marine molluscs are threatened by human impacts which have resulted in more extinctions than all tetrapod vertebrates combined. This book and its companion volume provide the first comprehensive account of the Mollusca in decades. Illustrated with hundreds of colour figures it reviews molluscan biology genomics anatomy physiology fossil history phylogeny and classification. This volume includes general chapters drawn from extensive and diverse literature on the anatomy and physiology of their structure movement reproduction feeding digestion excretion respiration nervous system and sense organs. Other chapters review the natural history (including ecology) of molluscs their interactions with humans and assess research on the group. Key features of both volumes: up to date treatment with an extensive bibliography;thoroughly examines the current understanding of molluscan anatomy physiology and development;reviews fossil history and phylogenetics;overviews ecology and economic values; andsummarises research activity and suggests future directions for investigation.
