Communism, Poetry: Communicating Vessels (Some Insubordinate Essays, 1999-2018) By Darko Suvin
2020 | 280 Pages | ISBN: 189513143X | PDF | 4 MB
Communism, Poetry: Communicating Vessels reunites political thought with poetry, its true counterpart and companion in justice. Describing the background of present perpetual warfare, violence and mass lesions, Suvin opens up seemingly disparate subjects like the poetic mastery of Bertolt Brecht and the fate of the former Yugoslavia, and then relates them to each other. Through this approach, the book aims to lay bare the horizon of this current age of political crisis, and dares the reader to look beyond that horizon, to the serious, comprehensive alternative.

We walk the walk, but do we talk the talk? As clinicians, do we speak with parents or to them? Is it effective in motivating them to adhere to interventions or do you find that sometimes they inhale and exhale at the sight/sound of parent training sessions? Research shows that parents who receive parent training obtain better outcomes out of their children's treatment, decrease their overall expenditures in therapy and become empowered to maintain these behavior changes over time. However, while parents are bringing their children to treatment (which is indicative of their desire to find help, unless of course, they are mandated by court), it is still a challenge to help parents follow through with interventions at home. Without addressing the etiology of parents' non-adherence or lack of consistency in treatment, it is impossible to help them move past these barriers.
