O knihe

A volume in Peace Education
Series Editors Jing Lin, University of Maryland, Edward Brantmeier, James Madison University,
and Ian Harris, University of Wisconsin, Milwaukee
Authored by scholars from a variety of disciplines, including English, Theology, Philosophy,
Communications, Sociology, Humanities and Peace Studies, this edited volume provides detailed
descriptions of the many ways popular culture can be used to teach peace.
Chapters discuss documentary and feature film, music, television, literature and more, providing
both educators and the general public with a timely and useful tool. From popular dystopian
novels like The Hunger Games to feature films like The Matrix to modern rap and hip-hop music,
contributors not only provide critical analysis of the violence in popular culture but also an assessment of how the same or alternate
forms can be used by peace educators. Additionally, each chapter project synopses and teaching ideas, as well as recommended
resources.
