The goal of this volume is to examine the phenomenon of media communication from a cross-cultural perspective. The focus in the contributions is on the analysis of political discourse in the media which, in mediatized mass democracies, is for most people the only way in which they ever encounter politics.

This book bears witness to the fact that imagination indeed lives next to and in league with that which troubles us, and also that it can and must be the heart of healing and renewal. This is an inspiring book. We as readers bear witness to several instances of a child finding his or her way through a traumatized and broken inner world to a place of most intimate and poignant healing by innately following a thread given by the heart and imagination in the presence of a gifted therapist.

Is there a particular type of person who becomes a bully? Why do bullies behave like they do? How can we interpret and understand bullying within relationships? The Bullies attempts to get inside the minds of the bully and the victim - the child, the adolescent and the adult - across a wide range of 'closed' situations including the home, school, workplace, prisons and the armed services.

By listening to the voices of bullies and victims from all kinds of backgrounds without making judgments, counselor Dennis Lines provides unique insights into bullying and what makes such domineering and aggressive behavior so complex. He discusses controversial issues such as genetic predisposition towards abusive behavior and draws on his counseling knowledge to provide insights on how to understand and treat bullies to change their behavior.
The Bullies offers a unique and illustrated perspective on a widespread phenomenon, and will be essential reading for psychologists, sociologists, counselors, teachers, social workers, probation officers, students and researchers.
