Book Description
To be AWARE of the unconscious motivations impinging on our senses is the heart of this book. While the near universal belief that women are the inferior gender is refuted by contemporary empirical scientific evidence, this prejudice, while not restricted to Temple, Church or Mosque, has been conceived, nurtured and promoted by select religious dogmas of 'The Big Three' religions. The unconscious influences, guided by such tenets, have resulted in slavery, violence, forced prostitution, genital mutilation and national laws that omit rape as a crime. Historically 'The Big Three' attributed their bias to a Higher Authority, and this allegation provided the excuse for the deprivation of women's rights around the world for centuries. Unconscious discriminatory thinking lies behind the gender gap in almost every area of modern civilized life. Why do women accept second-class status in their homes, jobs and communities? Why are there are so few women in public office in the enlightened climate of the United States? The root of this prejudice lies deep in our historical past but its unconscious impact is felt to this day. It is self-defeating for any society to discriminate against half its population. It is not only the females who suffer. It is damaging to any culture. Individuals need to challenge these biases and practices. World cultures need to make the unconscious - conscious and choose ways to promote gender equality in order to positively and productively utilize a vast, largely untapped resource -Woman Aware.

Mono No Aware and Gender as Affect in Japanese Aesthetics and American Pragmatism
Author: Johnathan Flowers
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield
ISBN: 1793626715
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 423
Book Description
Mono no Aware and Gender as Affect in Japanese Aesthetics and American Pragmatism argues that gender is best understood as a felt sense of the organization of the human body. Through Japanese aesthetics and American pragmatism, this book argues that re-understanding gender as an affect, or a feeling, can expand the ways that gender is understood, enacted, and theorized in experience.

Staying Healthy, Being Aware
Advances in Culturally-Aware Intelligent Systems and in Cross-Cultural Psychological Studies
Author: Colette Faucher
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319670247
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 473
Book Description
This book offers valuable new insights into the design of culturally-aware systems. In its first part, it is devoted to presenting selected Culturally-Aware Intelligent Systems devised in the field of Artificial Intelligence and its second part consists of two sub-parts that offer a source of inspiration for building modelizations of Culture and of its influence on the human mind and behavior, to be used in new Culturally-Aware Intelligent Systems. Those sub-parts present the results of experiments conducted in two fields that study Culture and its influence on the human mind’s functions: Cultural Neuroscience and Cross-Cultural Psychology. In this era of globalization, people from different countries and cultures have the opportunity to interact directly or indirectly in a wide variety of contexts. Despite differences in their ways of thinking and reasoning, their behaviors, their values, lifestyles, customs and habits, languages, religions – in a word, their cultures – they must be able to collaborate on projects, to understand each other’s views, to communicate in such a way that they don’t offend each other, to anticipate the effects of their actions on others, and so on. As such, it is of primary importance to understand how culture affects people’s mental activities, such as perception, interpretation, reasoning, emotion and behavior, in order to anticipate possible misunderstandings due to differences in handling the same situation, and to try and resolve them. Artificial Intelligence, and more specifically, the field of Intelligent Systems design, aims at building systems that mimic the behavior of human beings in order to complete tasks more efficiently than humans could by themselves. Consequently, in the last decade, experts and scholars in the field of Intelligent Systems have been increasingly tackling the notion of cultural awareness. A Culturally-Aware Intelligent System can be defined as a system where Culture-related or, more generally, socio-cultural information is modeled and used to design the human-machine interface, or to provide support with the task carried out by the system, be it reasoning, simulation or any other task involving cultural knowledge.

Aware Saga
Author: Terence Chong
Publisher: Flipside Digital Content Company Inc.
ISBN: 9971697092
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 238
Book Description
In March 2009, the Association of Women for Action and Research (AWARE) was briefly taken over by a Christian faction. Their coup was overturned within a matter of weeks, but the episode highlighted a variety of issues, including the role of religion in civil society, sex education, homosexuality, state intervention and media engagement. Although the immediate issue was control of an activist group concerned with women's rights, it has implications for the agendas and concerns of NGOs, 'culture wars', the processes of citizenry mobilization, mass participation and noisy democracy, and liberal voices in contemporary Singapore.In this book, academics and public intellectuals examine the AWARE saga within the context of Singapore's civil society, considering the political and historical background and how the issues it raised relate to contemporary societal trends. In addition to documenting a milestone event for Singapore's civil society, the authors offer provocative interpretations that will interest a broad range of readers.
