James Monroe
Authors: Leuchtenburg William E. 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
Chapter 6 focuses on the presidency of James Monroe who demonstrated that he was a true believer in the Republican creed, which survived the trial by fire of the War of 1812. Monroe also cultivated a spirit of national unity—called an “Era of Good Feelings”—far removed from the Federalist-Republican acrimony of 1800. Even though Monroe was scrupulously respectful of the curbs on executive powers mandated by the Constitution, he made a considerable impression on the institution of the American presidency. He made his greatest mark in foreign affairs by enunciating the Monroe Doctrine. He also acquired Florida from Spain and at the end of his tenure US territory or claims extended across the continent from the Atlantic to the Pacific. America was becoming an empire.
The Importance of Dialogue
Authors: Erstad Ola , Hagtvet Bente Eriksen , Wertsch James V. 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
This chapter introduces the main ideas and perspectives underlying the book. It presents crucial ideas from Ragnar Rommetveit about the importance of dialogue. The authors see education as a key social system where students learn skills and knowledge that are fundamental to social and cultural development, such as skills in taking the perspective of others, skills of communication, and skills of establishing intersubjectivity (shared “here and now”). A fundamental question is then, to what extent, and how, education systems, curricula, and teachers’ practices may develop a culture of mutual respect that may foster students’ appropriation of attitudes and skills that enable them to cope with ongoing social and cultural transformations. In this chapter the structure of the book is presented in terms of a set of core phenomena.
Layered Attunement
Authors: Bisgaard Christian H. , Antoine Campill Marc , von Fircks Enno , Valsiner Jaan 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
This chapter is a theoretical proposition to a move beyond the original notion of the dialogical self as proposed by Hermans (2001) to the polysemic multivoiced self by relying on Rommetveit’s (1985, 1992) understanding of the inherent dialogical nature of human beings, following his notion of intersubjectivity and attunement and further expanding this approach through semiotic mediation (Valsiner, 2007, 2014, 2020a, 2020b). In this way, we are proposing a hierarchically layered model of the self that allows us to understand the inherent complexity of human meaning-making processes that inevitably consists of negotiation of multiple, simultaneously occurring inter- and intrapsychological dialogues.
Opportunities to Learn and Intersubjectivity
Authors: Snow Catherine , Lawrence Joshua 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
A major theme in Rommetveit’s work was intersubjectivity: a concept with multiple meanings that vary with context of use, but which we define here as the sharing of understandings or knowledge across two minds. We argue that planned attention to generating intersubjectivity is crucial to effective education. Intersubjectivity-promoting activities include engaging in debate and discussion, using worked examples to promote reflection, and collaborative learning with authentic tasks. Unfortunately, such activities are only rarely available to children in typical classrooms or to teachers in preservice or professional development settings. There is ample evidence that these activities generate high motivation and engagement, fluency with academic language forms, and opportunities to hone argumentation skills and perspective-taking capacity among students, as well as a deeper understanding of taught material, more ownership of the content, and better models for teaching when used in professional development and teacher education.
Code-Switching During Shared Reading in Bilingual Families
Authors: Nomat Dilman , Grøver Vibeke , Rydland Veslemøy 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
The benefits of shared reading have been widely documented in research on dual language learners. However, we have yet to understand how bilingual parent–child dyads use and alternate between their languages during shared reading. Anchored in Rommetveit’s dialogism and his term attunement to the attunement of the other, we examined how Kurdish-Norwegian families with a 4–5-year-old child used their languages as dialogic resources during shared reading. We applied a qualitative approach using a three-wave longitudinal case study design with seven parent–child dyads. Data included parental interviews and audio recordings of shared reading sessions. The results indicated: (1) great variation in code-switching patterns (within and between dyads) at the onset of the study, (2) these patterns changed in unique and complex ways over time, and (3) parents employed code-switching as a resource to scaffold dialogues and support their child’s understanding. The findings are discussed in relation to how parents’ language choices reflect their attunement to their children.
Legacies and Prospects of Dialogue
Authors: Erstad Ola , Eriksen Hagtvet Bente , Wertsch James V. 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
The changing and accumulating societal barriers to dialogue are of key importance for understanding the human condition in contemporary societies. An important message throughout this book is the emphasis on the facilitators of true dialogue and the dangers of taking it for granted. While the collection of the volume's chapter topics was largely preplanned, the times we have lived through during the delivery of this book have presumably strengthened our awareness of the ideals of authentic dialogue being an urgently important, yet fragile, quality of living. On this background, this book is also a defense of authentic dialogues and the need to nurse them in school. In this final note of the book we point back to the legacies from Ragnar Rommetveit that all chapters refer to, from macro- to micro-perspectives. The chapter end with a quote from an interview with Rommetveit where he explains some of his key ideas.
White Desirability and the Violent Radicalization of Andrew Cunanan
Authors: Milton Ducusin Marc 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
Diverse media representations of gay, biracial spree killer Andrew Cunanan situate him within overlapping cultural understandings of queer violence, male sex work, and Asian-American identity. Infamous for the 1997 murder of Gianni Versace, Cunanan exerts a fraught fascination for scholars and artists of color. While his mixed-race identity embodied the mestizo physical ideal privileged in Filipino culture, his victimization of white men violently overturned the power dynamics through which white American culture and gay communities marginalize queer Asian bodies. The racist specter of white desirability thus haunts his tragic crimes in ways little explored in pop cultural depictions, news coverage, and academic studies. Through a mix of intersectional cultural analysis, close reading, and personal reflections, this chapter interrogates the social realities of sexual racism in the much-scrutinized media narrative of one of modern pop culture’s most notorious Asian-American figures.
Sexual Racism and Asian American Egg Donation
Authors: Yom Ellen 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
Assisted reproductive technologies have advanced significantly in the past four decades. While egg donation has been a welcome solution for many people who are unable to conceive through other means, the unregulated way in which it is practiced in the United States has created a marketplace with mixed sociocultural implications. This chapter outlines the gendered and racialized dynamics of egg donation, highlighting how such practices reify bioessentialist understandings of kinship and procreation. In particular, the chapter explores how bioessentialism and the “model minority” stereotype casts Asian American egg donors as desirable, ultimately assigning commercial value to race. As a researcher of this topic, the author examines these complexities and draws on their positionality as an Asian American mother married to a white man. Applying methods of reflexivity, they unpack their own and other’s ambivalence toward sexual racism and the contradictory feelings that can arise from being desired for one’s race.
Approaching Chord Tones by Two Notes
Authors: McNeil John , Nielsen Ryan 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
Chapter 6 introduces multiple approach tones. Lesson Plan 8 combines the techniques introduced in chapters 4 and 5. In preparation for improvising on the entire chord or scale in chapter 8, a new melodic shape is applied to diatonic 3rds. Recommendations are given for ways in which to create rhythmic variety with diatonic 3rds. In Lesson Plan 9, approaches from two notes above or two notes below are introduced. The importance of slow, steady tempo is emphasized. Chromatic approaches are also covered.
Improvising on the Entire Chord/Scale (Part 2)
Authors: McNeil John , Nielsen Ryan 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
Chapter 9 considers two main issues: ways in which to create longer lines with 3rds, and how to connect lines that move between different chords. Lesson Plan 14 introduces implied cross-rhythms: implied 3/4 in 4/4 time and implied 5/4 in 4/4 time. The chapter then considers ways in which to move between three chords. It also looks at rewriting chord/scales to start on or near common tones, and how to move from one chord or scale to another while starting on the same note, or moving from chord to chord by step. Movements from chord to chord are improvised using diatonic 3rds.
A Guide to Transcribing (Learning by Ear)
Authors: McNeil John , Nielsen Ryan 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
Chapter 16 offers a step-by-step approach to transcription – that is, imitating recorded solos by ear and learning them by heart. It considers the creative value of transcription and imitation, and offers some preparatory steps to get started. It goes on to discuss how to creatively practice what you learn from the process of transcription. Several examples of creative practice inspired by transcription are presented.
Postgraduate Research in Music
Authors: Rogers Victoria 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
Postgraduate Research in Music: A Step-by-Step Guide to Writing a Thesis is an essential text for music students who are undertaking postgraduate research. Unique in its approach and scope, this is a “how to” book, a practical guide that sets out, step-by-step, how to write a thesis. It discusses all key aspects of the research process in the order in which they are encountered, from the initial stages of a research project to completion of a thesis. It also offers a music-specific focus, with explanations and examples that are immediately relevant for all music research and which take into account the special characteristics of music as a discipline. Lastly, it provides a teaching framework for lecturers. All key concepts are illustrated with music-relevant examples. Exercises, and in some chapters class seminar topics as well, are included to reinforce the concepts being discussed. Reading lists are appended at the end of most chapters, enabling students to explore topics in greater depth. Valuable supplementary information, such as referencing examples, is provided in the appendices. Postgraduate Research in Music is based on the premise that there are certain principles that underpin good scholarship, regardless of the area in which the research is conducted. In distilling and discussing these principles, this book speaks to all scholars working within the discipline of music.
Writing a Literature Review
Authors: Rogers Victoria 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
Chapter 4 explores the next step in the research process: writing a literature review. The first part of the chapter sets out the reasons for writing a review of the literature, the sources it includes, and the skills that are needed. The second part provides guidelines for writing a review, dealing in turn with ten elements: (1) where the review is located in a thesis; (2) how many references are included; (3) clustering the references; (4) organizing the references within each cluster; (5) how to begin; (6) reviewing the sources; (7) providing citations; (8) the style of a review; (9) how to end a review; and (10) six common pitfalls. The remainder of the chapter sets out guidelines for writing an annotated bibliography, an exercise that is often undertaken as preparation for the literature review itself. Six elements are discussed: (1) clustering the references; (2) how to begin; (3) reviewing the sources; (4) style; (5) how to end an annotated bibliography; and (6) comparing a literature review and an annotated bibliography. There are three exercises at the end of the chapter. The first two are designed to cultivate critical thinking skills; the third entails the preparation of an annotated bibliography.
Writing a Thesis Part 3
Authors: Rogers Victoria 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
Musical terminology is a frequent source of discombobulation for music scholars. Not only is it unique in the concepts and structures it describes; it is also documented in different ways. Whether to capitalize major and minor, the church modes, and scale degrees; how to document artists’ names and the titles of musical works; how to refer to notes and note names . . . these are just some of the many confusions that arise when writing about music. Chapter 8 brings clarity to the issue by discussing nine key elements within the musical lexicon: (1) capitalization; (2) artists’ names; (3) titles of musical works; (4) notes and note names; (5) time signatures; (6) chords; (7) non-English terms; (8) numbers; and (9) abbreviations. The chapter includes one exercise: a deeply flawed text that is presented for editorial emendation.
Governed By Affect
Authors: Pettit Michael 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
Governed by Affect offers a new history of psychology’s contradictory and contested public life in the United States and beyond since World War II, with a special emphasis on a series of transformations that have occurred since the 1970s. For both policymakers and ordinary people, the discipline of psychology has come to furnish a seemingly inexhaustible array of tools and concepts for making individuals healthier, wealthier, and happier. At the heart of this psychologized neo-liberalism is the notion that attention or the will exists as a scarce resource in a distracted and tempting world. Breaking with the austere and deliberative rationality of Cold War cognitive science, the new psychology depicts individuals as beholden to their unbridled passions and wants. At the same time of this unprecedented cultural influence, psychologists’ expertise came under greater scrutiny than ever before, with the discipline finding itself mired in a pair of moral and epistemological crises which threaten to overturn the field’s self-image as an objective science and a helping profession. The book traces a series of key transformations: a switch from psychology identifying as a social science to a health science; the greater engagement of psychological scientists in the realms of self-help and public policy; and the overshadowing of cognitive science by theories of affect. These three transformations—in psychology’s political economy, in its public engagement, and in its theories of the self—constitute distinct but interconnected areas of analysis for constructing a new history of the psychological society. Such a perspective offers a critical genealogy of the stakes and public face of psychology at a time when the provision of mental health services and the use of behavioral interventions to improve both personal and social well-being are acute matters of concern.
The Tragedy of American Psychology
Authors: Pettit Michael 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
This chapter examines the ranks of clinical psychologists who eclipsed the academic scientists in the discipline. The 1970s saw two competing strategies for expanding clinical psychology by politicizing mental health. The first was “the battle for professionalism” represented by the “Dirty Dozen,” a coterie of white, male clinicians in private practice seeking to seize control of the American Psychological Association to transform it into a lobby for securing compensation from insurance providers. In contrast, the Black psychologists affiliated with the Westside Community Mental Health Center in San Francisco offered a radical alternative to professionalism grounded in community participation and control. These two groups articulated very different visions of training, credentialing, and compensation as well as psychology’s relationship to the law. Professionalism’s triumph over community control proved something of a pyrrhic victory, given the growth of psychopharmacology and the fissure of the APA in the 1980s.
“Guile in the Garden”
Authors: Reeder Tyson 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
American revolutionaries eked out victory in their war for independence, but their country remained surrounded by hostile foreign nations. They feared that foreign actors might jeopardize American sovereignty by plotting against them or stunting their westward expansion. Plagued by political uncertainty, social unrest, and economic suffering, Americans fretted that foreign powers would dismantle the new, loosely united country. Few Americans felt that alarm as keenly as James Madison. The future president linked America’s domestic discord with its international weakness. Hamstrung by the Articles of Confederation, Congress remained a bickering diplomatic assembly rather than a national government. If disagreements and divisions persisted, the confederacy might dissolve. If the confederacy dissolved, foreign powers would intervene, and Americans would surrender the sovereignty they had just won.
“The Election of Mr. Madison”
Authors: Reeder Tyson 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
As war raged between Britain and Napoleon’s France, the two European powers caught Americans in the middle. They imposed blockades that devastated American exports. Each empire oscillated between flattery and threats to pressure Americans to their side. The British and Federalists attempted to discredit the Jefferson administration and keep Madison out of the White House. Political paranoia increased on all sides during the election of 1808 as Britain and France violated US neutrality, increasing the stakes of US political debates. Madison took office with partisans primed to believe the worst about each other. Federalists saw him as Napoleon’s stooge. In turn, Madison misread the discontented mumblings of extreme Federalists as a full-fledged conspiracy to invite British dominion over the United States. Both sides feared that unless they routed the political opposition, foreign enemies would destroy US independence.
Mission Driven Bureaucrats
Authors: Honig Dan 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
Mission Driven Bureaucrats argues that the performance of our governments can be transformed by managing bureaucrats for their empowerment rather than for compliance. Aimed at public sector workers, leaders, academics, and citizens alike, it contends that public sectors too often rely on a managerial approach that seeks to tightly monitor and control employees, and thus demotivates and repels the mission-motivated. The book suggests that better performance can in many cases come from a more empowerment-oriented managerial approach—which allows autonomy, cultivates feelings of competence, and creates connection to peers and purpose—which allows the mission-motivated to thrive. Arguing against conventional wisdom, the volume argues that compliance often thwarts, rather than enhances, public value—and that we can often get less corruption and malfeasance with less monitoring. It provides a handbook of strategies for managers to introduce empowerment-oriented strategies into their agency. It also describes what everyday citizens can do to support the empowerment of bureaucrats in their governments. Interspersed throughout this book are featured profiles of real-life Mission Driven Bureaucrats, who exemplify the dedication and motivation that is typical of many civil servants. Drawing on original empirical data from a number of countries and the prior work of other scholars from around the globe, the volume argues that empowerment-oriented management and how to cultivate, support, attract, and retain Mission Driven Bureaucrats should have a larger place in our thinking and practice.
Systems All the Way Down
Authors: Honig Dan 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
This chapter describes the importance of collectives and teams to public performance. It first presents evidence that peer networks can influence an employee’s motivation and job satisfaction. Peer networks can also improve employees’ performance at work through peer learning and peer accountability tools, such as peer discussions. The chapter then describes how norms and culture can influence a team’s performance. Employees are likely to act in mission-driven ways if their team upholds deliberative and mission-oriented norms. However, undesirable norms of corruption or risk conservatism may derail a team’s performance. Fortunately, management can play a role in shifting the norms of their team.
Pathways from Managing for Empowerment and Managing for Compliance to Results
Authors: Honig Dan 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
This chapter examines when and where empowerment-oriented (Route E) reforms are likely to improve performance, as compared to compliance-oriented (Route C) reforms. It first highlights a link between high-performing agencies and empowerment-oriented management. It then describes the potential benefits and risks of Route C managerial reforms. It examines various empirical studies of Route E and Route C reforms—first exploring the effects of the same managerial approach across different agencies, then comparing both approaches in the same context. It finds that Route E is indeed preferable to Route C in agencies that are intractable to monitoring. Route E may even be beneficial within easily monitored agencies that have underutilized empowerment-oriented strategies. The chapter also introduces performance possibility frontiers (PPFs) as useful thinking tools to map the connection between management strategies and performance, using Delhi schools as a case study. Finally, it describes the benefits of hybrid reform strategies, which combine Route E and C elements.
Rethinking Accountability for Mission Driven Bureaucrats
Authors: Honig Dan 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
This chapter explores how managers can build accountability in the public service without suffocating the motivation of Mission Driven Bureaucrats. It first describes the massive costs of traditional, compliance-oriented oversight in government programs. It argues that bureaucrats are often even more mission-driven than their principals, who can themselves be corrupt—especially when these principals are politicians. Mission-motivated agents can act as a buffer against corrupt principals. It then explores the relationship between corruption and performance. While compliance-oriented accountability regimes may reduce corruption, they may also impair performance by demotivating bureaucrats. The chapter advocates for empowerment-oriented approaches to accountability, which rely on cultivating mission-driven employees and norms. It explores ways to shift the direction of accountability relationships toward peers and citizens. It then examines ways to shift from accounting-based accountability regimes toward account-based accountability approaches, which provide a more holistic depiction of employee performance.
