Ribbon Culture

This book explores the history, meaning, and sociological implications of awareness campaigns, seeing them as personal displays of compassion in a culture where empathy is a by-word for authenticity. It also highlights how charities use awareness campaigns to reach their audience, and the transformation of charity into a commercial enterprise.

This book volume describes a fiveyear journey of inquiry and discovery and the research findings of medical, health and social scientists which provides an opportunity for scholars and professionals to reflect on the implications of this research for social policy and practice. Of particular interest and emphasis are issues of gender, poverty, Aboriginal status, and cultural factors that frame the lives of "typical" and "nontypical" young children and their families in urban, rural, and remote communities.
