“…Women"s activist groups are a particularly good example of this in South Africa, bringing together diverse groups of women from across the political, class and ethnic spectrum around specific issues such as employment and housing rights or domestic and sexual violence. These "spaces of appearance" (Arendt 1958) are often formed in opposition to existing institutions and within which the multiplicity of opinions, positions and interests might continually disrupt the possibility of consensus in a "field of agonistic engagement" (Amin 2004). 8 The radical possibilities of these spaces are created by there being enough space between people for them to argue different positions, thus generating political freedom and meaningful realisation of citizenship.…”

The paper draws on recent feminist writing to examine the possibilities for rethinking citizenship as an ethical, non-instrumental social status, distinct from both political participation and economic independence. This reframing of citizenship moves beyond notions of "impasse" or "hollowness", challenges the public/private distinction that still frames many debates about citizenship and considers the emancipatory potential of gendered subjectivity. The paper argues that citizenship is shaped by differing social, political and cultural contexts and this brings into sharp focus the problematic assumption of the universal applicability of western concepts and theories.

ResumoO perdão foi estudado através do Enright Forgiveness Inventory -EFI (versão em português) -em relação à intensidade da mágoa, aos afetos, aos julgamentos e aos comportamentos da vítima referentes ao ofensor. Verificou-se também se a cultura, o sexo, a idade e a religião influenciam o perdão. Participaram 200 brasileiros e 394 estadunidenses. Os resultados foram similares nas duas culturas: as pessoas perdoaram espontaneamente, mas não completamente. O perdão mostrou-se negativamente correlacionado com a intensidade da mágoa; foi oferecido em maior grau à família e aos amigos do que a estranhos e a colegas de trabalho; e as pessoas perdoaram mais pelos julgamentos do que pelos afetos. Não ocorreram diferenças quanto à religião, sexo ou idade. Futuros estudos devem verificar se ao perdoar completamente os afetos positivos pelo ofensor permanecem inferiores ou se igualam aos escores dos julgamentos positivos. Palavras-chave: Perdão interpessoal; Intensidade da mágoa; Atitude moral. AbstractThe Enright Forgiveness Inventory -EFI (Portuguese version) was used to verify relationships between forgiveness and degree of injury to the agents of hurt and also the degree of affect, behavior and judgment from victims towards their offenders. It was also checked whether culture, gender, age and religion affect the act of forgiving. Two hundred Brazilians and 394 Americans participated in the study. Findings were similar for both cultures. Forgiveness was negatively related to the degree of injury. People forgive family and friends at a higher degree than they forgive strangers or co-workers. Positive judgments received significantly higher scores than positive affect. No significant effect was found for forgiveness regarding gender, age or religion. Future studies should verify whether genuine forgiveness shows positive affect for offenders at a same degree as positive judgments or affect remains always lower than judgment for forgiving. Ao longo da história da civilização, o perdão foi enfocado como uma estratégia política para a resolução de conflitos (Arendt, 1958(Arendt, /1998Digeser, 2001;McKnight, 2004;Nussbaum, 1998). Worthington (1998Worthington ( , 2005 informa que, no âmbito da psicologia, os estudos sobre o perdão são recentes. As publicações sobre o tema começa-ram a despontar em 1968 e mostraram um crescimento significativo durante as décadas de 1980 e 1990, permanecendo o interesse relativamente alto desde então.No terreno da psicologia, um campo de estudos sobre o perdão tem sido o das relações interpessoais. Nesse campo, o perdão é operacionalizado como uma atitude motivada pela compaixão e observado em suas implicações para o desenvolvimento moral e social. Neste sentido, encontram-se os estudos de Robert D. Enright, com um corpo teórico e metodológico coerentemente aplicado a pesquisas empíricas em diversas áreas: psicologia do desenvolvimento moral (Enright & The Human Development Study

“…The managers of educational spaces must resist any forces that channel student inquiry along firm and familiar tracks rather as smart homes may channel leisure. Adopting a metaphor from everyday life: the management of information spaces (such as the internet) should afford encounters with information 'strangers' [as celebrated in Arendt's (1958) considerations of urban space]. The danger of inhibiting such serendipity and openness of exploration has been characterised by Pariser (2011) as a form of rigidly structured information delivery that traps us into what he terms 'filter bubbles'.…”

Abstract:The term 'smart' has become widely and sometimes carelessly employed in relation to contemporary design. However, in certain areas of cultural practice it also has acquired a more specialised and focussed meaning. One such area is education. The present paper explores the discourse of smart as it is emerging in relation to both educational technologies and educational spaces. The characteristics of smart learning tools and smart sites for learning with such tools are defined in terms of their capability for organising regulative interactions. However, it is argued that these artefacts and these spaces can not be fully productive unless they are enveloped by a framework of human intelligence and judgement. This locates the teacher has having an important, novel, and distinctive role in the management of smart education. The range of such responsibilities is illustrated and related to contemporary themes in the psychology of learning.
