This book investigates the practice of family mediation and some of the challenges that may hinder its effective use by marginalised groups in a society. Those challenges include gendered power disparity and family violence, especially towards women, and the discussion extends to how the challenges can be overcome through a practice of evaluative mediation to provide fair outcomes for women. Unlike other contemporary books on mediation, this book not only discusses different theories of power and equity in mediation, it also includes a number of verbatim quotes from different mediation sessions to demonstrate how those theories are operationalised in a real life context. While other contemporary texts on mediation focus on Western style facilitative mediation and its limitations in attaining fair justice for women enduring gendered power disparity and family violence, this text emphasises an evaluative mediation style that is embedded in Eastern social practices. Instead of focusing on gendered power disparity and family violence as limitations on the practice of facilitative mediation, this book details the practice of evaluative mediation which may provide fair justice to women despite the presence of gendered power disparity and family violence in a society.

A Theology for a Mediated God introduces a new way to examine the shaping effects of media on our notions of God and divinity. In contrast to more conventional social-scientific methodologies and conversations about the relationship between religion and media, Dennis Ford argues that the characteristics we ascribe to a medium can be extended and applied metaphorically to the characteristics we ascribe to God-just as earlier generations attempted to comprehend God through the metaphors of father, shepherd, or mother. As a result, his work both challenges and bridges the gap between students of religion and media, and theology.

Western Mainstream Media And The Ukraine Crisis
RRP $254.99
This book explores contemporary propaganda and mainstream Western news media, with reference to the Ukraine crisis.
It examines western media narratives of the immediate causes of the crisis, the respective roles of those who participated in or otherwise supported the demonstrations of 2013-2014 - including US-backed NGOs and rightist militia - and the legitimacy, or otherwise, of the destabilization of the democratically elected Yanukovych government. It considers how the crisis was contextualized with reference to broader themes of competition for power over Eurasia and the Washington Consensus. It assesses the role of Russia and of ethnic Russian Ukrainians in Crimea, Odessa and the Donbass and asks whether western mainstream media went out of their way to demonize Vladimir Putin. The book deconstructs prevailing western narratives as to the reasons for the shooting down of Malaysian Airways flight MH17 in July 2014, and counters western media concentration on the issue of culpability for the shooting down with an alternative narrative of culpability for failure to close air space to civilian airliners. From analysis of these discourses the book identifies principles of post-2001 western conflict propaganda as these appeared to play out in Ukraine.
This book will be of much interest to students of propaganda, media and communication studies, Russian and Eastern European politics, security studies and IR.
