    In this paper, T. M. Murray defends a vision of liberal tolerance as grounding the common good. She critiques the discourse that Western liberalism amounts to ‘Islamophobia’ or ‘cultural imperialism’.

    Studying Feminist Film Theory
    Auteur Publications / Columbia University Press. 2019.
    Cinematic entertainment is more than 'mere escapism'. Cinema practices are industrial products. They come into existence within institutional conditions and practices. This book introduces media and film students to the background theorists and texts that have informed a gender-critical approach to cinema studies. Case studies from popular cinema and independent movies are used to illustrate key points and the author celebrates some "unexpected heroes" of feminist cinema.

    The aim of this commentary is to identify and assess two central myths promulgated by America’s Christian right. For the purposes of this piece, the “Christian right” is defined as a group of socially conservative, politically active organizations within fundamentalist Christianity who share the objective of implementing conservative changes to American culture and law. The movement generally rejects any modern method of Biblical interpretation and many of its adherents place far less emphasis o…Read more
