Normative social organization and taken for granted beliefs and actions are exposed as key mechanisms of power and social inequality in western societies today. By \"unpacking the centre\" students are encouraged to turn their social worlds inside out and explore alternatives to the dominant social order.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe text is divided into three parts. In Part One students learn how to use theory and methodology, which are blended seamlessly throughout the text. It shows how to position Michel Foucault as a companion to theorists such as Karl Marx and Stuart Hall, while signaling the importance of non-western and Indigenous knowledges, experiences, and rights. In Part Two, students explore – and challenge – normativity; the normal body, heterosexuality, whiteness, the two-gender system, aging, and the under-side of citizenship. In Part Three, shorter chapters critique everyday practices such as thinking scientifically, practicing self-help, going shopping, managing money, buying coffee, being a tourist, and marginalizing Indigeneity. Each chapter includes intriguing exercises, study questions, and key terms that link to the volume\u0026amp;#x2019;s comprehensive glossary. Instructors are provided PowerPoint slides, test banks, and multimodal supplementary resources that make the book adaptable to blended and online learning environments. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eEssay-style lectures are also available to accompany the textbook. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003ePreface\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIntroduction: Unpacking the Centre\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart One: Foundations\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.
