Book excerpt: En grandes números, la globalización beneficia a las mujeres. Pero no todo es de color de rosa: la falencia de los estados nacionales, los fundamentalismos y las deslocalizaciones perjudican. Globalizada no está la atención médica, porque todavía más de medio millón de mujeres mueren en el parto al año, pero sí lo está el tráfico y la trata, que trafican con mujeres desde cualquier parte del planeta para ponerlas a disposición allí donde paguen por usarlas. Digamos que la agenda feminista está, además, abierta por páginas diferentes en cada lugar del mundo. Este libro se propone reflexionar sobre ello y dar alguna de las herramientas que permiten comprender el impulso de cambio que abrió la Modernidad y cómo actualmente se conjuga en los lugares más distantes y dispares. El feminismo nos conduce ahora de la supervivencia a la paridad, estamos en su "Tercera Ola". Seguimos en la punta de lanza de un movimiento mundial e irreversible por cuya agenda cruzan ahora buena parte de las tensiones civilizatorias.

Todas las esferas de la vida se ven trastocadas por la globalización. Instituciones, ideologías, imaginarios, reglas, actores, conflictos y normas afrontan nuevas realidades pero sin que las viejas, las de los Estados territoriales, necesariamente hayan desaparecido o debilitado en algunos continentes. Se imponen, entonces, marcos interpretativos capaces de entender y tratar este mapa global que, en variadas circunstancias, convive con el territorial. Se trata de entender y, de algún modo, enfrentar los desórdenes que la globalización provoca en los órdenes que venían rigiendo el mundo, entre ellos lajusticia.El binomio justicia/injusticia focaliza nuestro doble interés: académico y político. La obra corresponde a la profundidad crítica de la teoría de Nancy Fraser sobre la justicia y utiliza su matriz para la interpretación, análisis y discusión de un abanico de problemas relevantes, alterados por la globalización, y que forman parte de la agenda del moviemiento feminista de América Latina y de la Unión Europe asi como también de quienes apuestan a un mundo más justo y equitativo.EDITORIAL HOMO SAPIENS - ARGENTINA.Este libro contiene el desarrollo de los siguientes temas: -La obra de Nancy Fraser: selección bibliográfi ca-Referencias académicas de las autoras-Capítulo 1El regreso de la teoría crítica.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dueña de una vasta producción filosófica y un implacable espíritu critico, que hace algunos años Alicia Puleo caracterizó de intempestivo, Amorós da nuevamente cuenta de la amplitud de sus intereses y de la riqueza de sus análisis críticos para abordar en esta obra los alcances y consecuencias que para las mujeres tiene el actual proceso de globalización. Desde su triple punto de partida recupera, primero, los conceptos de igualdad y de Universalidad con fuerte acento crítico feminista en el marco del paradigma informacionista.En segundo lugar, hace valer su consistente formación marxista, recuperando el pensamiento de Heidi Hartmann, con especial sensibilidad respecto del trabajo invisible de las mujeres, la feminización de la pobreza, y el fenómeno in crescendo de las maquilas, que considera su expresión simbólica más pregnante. Las conceptualizaciones de Donna Haraway y sus cyborgs la llevan a reconceptualizar los procesos globalizadores a partir del testigo modesto en clave feminista. Se centra así en la violencia contra las mujeres (que denomina violencia patriarcal) a raíz de los crímenes de Ciudad Juárez y en franco diálogo con otras feministas (Lamas, Lagarde, Segato) que también han examinado el tema. Fiel a sus deudas con el existencialismo, acepta para sus conceptualizaciones los desafíos que la praxis le presenta.HOMOSAPIENS EDICIONES - ARGENTINAEste libro contiene el desarrollo de los siguientes temas, entre otros: -Un mundo de ganadores y perdedores-La economía del trabajo doméstico fuera del hogar -Estados del Bienestar y salario familiar -Salario familiar y mujer doméstica -El capitalismo rifa, el patriarcado distribuye boletos -Un pacto patriarcal interclasista -Del salario familiar a las proveedoras frustradas -Del empresario calvinista a la cultura del hacker-Salario familiar y salario patriarcal -Del trabajo doméstico fuera del hogar al trabajo extradoméstico dentro el hogarCon este libro usted tendrá a su alcance reflexiones sobre el feminismo en un contexto actual.Descargue ya este libro y comience a aprender sobre esta importante temática.feminismoglobalización patriarcadodiferencia salarialviolencia domésticafemicidios misoginia

This book was released on 2023-10-15 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines different dimensions of digital communication and populism in times of the COVID-19 pandemic. While doing so, it discusses views, opinions, and research results regarding the conditions, experiences, constraints, benefits, and challenges related to the topic - not only using theoretical and methodological approaches but also practical perspectives. The COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic significantly accelerated the technological revolution presenting many social, economic, and political challenges, as it pushed the world into cyberspace to ensure social distancing. At the same time, many populist protests expressed in the digital public sphere massively gained importance during the lockdowns. As a result, one of the most significant consequences of using electronic tools is not only greater e-participation of citizens, but - especially evident through elections during a pandemic - even greater transfer of political communication and election campaigns into the space of new media. The book broadly analyses various contexts of digitalization of communication processes and populist politics from both theoretical and empirical perspectives in various case studies on the digitalization of information, communication, or participation processes during the COVID-19 pandemic in selected European countries and beyond. This book will appeal to students, researchers, and scholars of political communication, political science, electoral studies, digital politics, and democracy, as well as policy-makers interested in a better understanding of digital communication and populism during the Covid-19 pandemic.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Youth studies in Latin America and Spain face numerous challenges. This book delves into youth experiences in the 21st century, shaped by complex and pressing issues: the surge of youth cultures and groups, visual images of youth throughout time, and fragmented youth experiences in radically unequal societies. It analyzes young people as precarious natives in global capitalism and labor uncertainty, juvenicide, feminist discourse, social networks, intimacy and sexual affection among young people in a context of growing claims of gender equality. Also included are rural and indigenous youth as political actors, the actions of young political activists within government administrations, the experience of youth migration and empowerment, and young people dealing with the digital world. How have youth studies approached these issues in Latin America and Spain? Which were the main developments and transformations in this research field over the past years? Where is it heading?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traditional cultural practices involving animals are being seriously questioned, heavily regulated, and, in some cases, even abolished in Spain. This essential and timely text brings together prominent scholars working in the ever-expanding field of animal studies in Spain, drawing from a variety of disciplines within the humanities and social sciences to provide an interdisciplinary look at the animal question. In choosing an angle to approach the study of ethical, aesthetic considerations, and cultural representations of animals, this collection moves away from the ideology of human exceptionalism that is still predominant but progressively losing force in the field of animal ethics in Spain. It instead includes contributions by scholars who have chosen to look at animals, to a lesser or greater degree, through an antispeciesist lens, displaying the committed attention to and respect for animal life that characterizes critical animal studies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines sex and gender differences in the causes and expression of medical conditions, including mental health disorders. Sex differences are variations attributable to individual reproductive organs and the XX or XY chromosomal complement. Gender differences are variations that result from biological sex as well as individual self-representation which include psychological, behavioural, and social consequences of an individual’s perceived gender. Gender is still a neglected field in psychopathology, and gender differences is often incorrectly used as a synonym of sex differences. A reconsideration of the definition of gender, as the term that subsumes masculinity and femininity, could shed some light on this misperception and could have an effect in the study of health and disease. This second edition of Psychopathology clarifies the anthropological, cultural and social aspects of gender and their impact on mental health disorders. It focuses on gender perspective as a paradigm not only in psychopathology but also in mental health disorders. As such it promotes open mindedness in the definition and perception of symptoms, as well as assumptions about those symptoms, and raises awareness of mental health.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gender equality is one of the founding democratic principles of the EU. However, recent studies of the Federation of Olympic Sports in Europe have shown that women occupy only fourteen percent of decision-making positions in sport organizations. This book presents a comprehensive and comparative study of how various regions and countries of Europe have addressed this lack of gender diversity, discussing which strategies have brought about change and to what extent these changes have been successful. With contributions from leading sport sociologists, covering countries such as Germany, Hungary, Norway, Poland, Spain, Turkey and the UK, it provides a foundation for future policymaking, methodological analyses and theoretical developments that can result in sustainable gender equality in European sport governance. Gender Diversity in European Sport Governance is important reading for scholars and students in the fields of sociology of sport, sport management, sociology, gender studies and studies of organization, management and leadership. It is also a valuable resource for policy makers in the EU, as well as national sport organizations and activists.

Book excerpt: Volume 2 of A Comparative History of Literatures in the Iberian Peninsula brings to an end this collective work that aims at surveying the network of interliterary relations in the Iberian Peninsula. No attempt at such a comparative history of literatures in the Iberian Peninsula has been made until now. In this volume, the focus is placed on images (Section 1), genres (Section 2), forms of mediation (Section 3), and cultural studies and literary repertoires (Section 4). To these four sections an epilogue is added, in which specialists in literatures in the Iberian Peninsula, as well as in the (sub)disciplines of comparative history and comparative literary history, search for links between Volumes 1 and 2 from the point of view of general contributions to the field of Iberian comparative studies, and assess the entire project that now reaches completion with contributions from almost one hundred scholars.

Book excerpt: This volume covers topics related to human rights issues and problems of people who are overwhelmed by hostile situations around them and are subsequently rendered vulnerable. The situations of vulnerability discussed in this book are related to suffering caused by the moral, family, social, economic or political conditions in which the people, and the groups they belong to, live. Readers are guided through a discussion about rights, as an instrument through which civil society and the ‘Rule of Law’ try to curb or even eliminate the suffering of these people. The aim of such efforts is to restore the situation of vulnerable people to a level of normality. Human Rights Issues and Vulnerable Groups presents a discussion of issues surrounding several kinds of vulnerable groups: minorities, children, gender groups, persons with disabilities, migrants, cultural groups, displaced persons, victims of terrorism, linguistic groups, poor people, people in prison and sexual minorities. The book is a detailed reference for graduates and scholars in law, political science, sociology and social psychology. The volume is also recommended for working professionals who operate with human rights groups and general readers (non-experts) who want to understand the discourse about human rights in a holistic (moral, legal, social, economic, and political) framework.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The sport coaching profession has historically been and continues to be a White male-dominated occupation and this remains a global issue. This imbalance persists despite an improvement in wider social attitudes and legislation towards equality and diversity within many societies, and despite the action by sporting organisations and national governing bodies. Within the research literature, the underrepresentation of women in sport coaching is a well-documented issue with a number of research studies highlighting the experiences and impact of being in the minority for women coaches. The issue of gender inequity in sport coaching is a long-standing one and shows little sign of changing significantly anytime soon. Therefore, a new approach is needed, one that draws on the knowledge and evidence we have to create actionable, sustainable, deep-rooting interventions that challenge the issue of gender equity at its very core. The overall purpose of Improving Gender Equity in Sports Coaching is to take an action or forward-thinking approach about what works, or could work, to improve the recruitment, development, or promotion of women sport coaches. The book brings together a global group of esteemed scholars working in this subject area. In this book, we have brought together not just the insight but also a collection of strategies and recommendations as to how this research could be or has been utilised to make our sport coaching envrionment places where all coaches feel as though they belong. As such, this ground-breaking book is a must read not just for students and researchers of gender equity in sport but also for policy and decision-makers working in sport.
