This is an open access book. Each country in Southeast Asia has experienced numerous adversities, from pandemic and disasters, to inequalities and threats to democracy. Adding to these challenges, are our common experience of colonialism where its legacies still resonate in the present. Despite these challenges, Southeast Asia continue to participate in global commitments geared towards realizing sustainable development, democracy, and countervailing the imbalance global power relation. Furthermore, Southeast Asia has been the center of studies that critically examined the global power of knowledge production. Categories of 'developing, undeveloped, or third world' have been largely questioned, as these categories created more segregation and reflected Orientalist notion rather than acknowledging countries of Southeast Asia and others as a distinct entity. Under this backdrop, the conference will explore these important questions: what makes Southeast Asia resilient? Why? What brought Southeast Asia together as 'Southeast Asia'? What are the challenges for Southeast Asia today? How do we overcome them? How does Southeast Asia contest and cooperate with global powers within the international network? This conference will bring together academics, educators, activists, or even policy makers who work on Southeast Asia to discuss those questions. Experts within and outside the countries of Southeast Asia are welcome to share their research and knowledge on various issues about the region.

" Church of Our Granddaughters is a visionary work of theology and ethics that looks hopefully and lovingly two generations into the future, imagining the Orthodox Church's practices and realities rightfully aligned with its core theological teachings and truths regarding women. This reverent but bold work offers the necessary insight and inspiration to create a community that welcomes all its members, our granddaughters as well as our grandsons, thus allowing the Orthodox Church to better incarnate its mission of service and transfiguration."--Back cover

Textbooks (LDs) have proved to be sources of research for education. From this perspective, this work seeks to analyse, through a historical approach, what characteristics are present in Physics and Chemistry textbooks from the early 20th century in Brazil in relation to the contents of the structure of matter. To this end, an analytical device based on the theoretical assumptions of French Discourse Analysis is proposed, in order to reconstitute discursive formations imbricated in didactic texts. In the light of Bachelard's epistemology, we also sought to elucidate the conceptions of science and teaching conveyed through the LDs, seeking to contextualise the analysis according to the historical period selected (1900-1930) with regard to the scientific, political and educational scenario of the time. Aimed at science educators, undergraduate students and researchers in the field, this work includes a concise summary of studies already carried out in the period and an analysis of rare books that reveal the relationships between the discourses that make up the textbook as a textual genre.
