Housing the Essential Element

Harrison, Lyn

SHAC Publications

Everyone is aware of intoxication and drunkenness - what they look like, how to define and measure them, and what their consequences are. A whole variety of concerns - about young people, public health, road safety, sexual assault, and violence - are connected to these taken-for-granted understandings of intoxication and drunkenness. Drawing on an extensive review of research from biomedicine, psychology, sociology, legal studies, and news media reporting, Smashed! reveals a far more complex picture. This is a picture marked by little agreement on how to define intoxication and drunkenness, how to measure intoxication, what getting drunk means to those who drink (young people, men, women, and individuals from different cultural and national backgrounds). The book also examines the individual, social, medical, and legal consequences of intoxication and drunkenness. Smashed! presents an overview of the history of these concerns and an extensive account of the many meanings of intoxication and drunkenness at the start of the 21st century. It provides a valuable resource for researchers, policy makers, the media, and members of the community who are involved in these ongoing, often emotive, debates.

Pedagogies of Possibility for Negotiating Sexuality Education with Young Peopleoffers a sustained and critical consideration of the possibilities and politics of engaging with young people in the redevelopment and delivery of contemporary approaches to Sexuality Education. Drawing on research undertaken as part of an Australian Research Council (ARC) Linkage grant, this book explores the affordances, tensions and challenges of participatory methodologies and pedagogies that authorize young people's perspectives and visions for Sexuality Education. Foregrounded are the contradictions between what young people want to learn more about and the risky forms of praxis that are necessary to engage with various understandings of Sexuality Education and the important role of adult allies in supporting young people to navigate these contradictions. Each chapter chronicles and captures both adult allies and young people's experiences of the project by drawing on data produced through visual-arts based methods and various ethnographic techniques, such as participant observation, focus group interviews, and guided conversations.
