Book Synopsis Les diversités en milieux de travail by : Michel Racine
Download or read book Les diversités en milieux de travail written by Michel Racine and published by . This book was released on 2018-11-23 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les situations de la diversité en milieu de travail varient selon les pays et les régions. Nombre de facteurs expriment la variabilité de ces situations : faut-il désormais parler de diversités au pluriel ? Des thèmes que l'on croyait enfouis, maintenant en résurgence (religion, esclavage), entraînent des clivages catégoriels insoupçonnés. Malgré cette hétérogénéité, surgit un intérêt convergent pour les personnes en périphérie du marché du travail — sans exclure l'apport central des gens qui l'occupent. Il ressort de cette quête de compréhension l'attente d'une démarche inclusive de la part d'acteurs du marché du travail : employeurs et Etat. Voilé l'intérêt fondamental de cet ouvrage. Ces diversités ont fait l'objet de réflexions approfondies à l'occasion des 13e Rencontres internationales de la diversité (RID), tenues en octobre 2017 à l'Université Laval, à Québec. L'ouvrage regroupe une sélection de contributions présentées lors des Rencontres, aussi diverses dans leur contenu que dans leur provenance de terrains et d'auteurs.
Book Synopsis Inventing Equal Opportunity by : Frank Dobbin
Download or read book Inventing Equal Opportunity written by Frank Dobbin and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2009-05-26 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Equal opportunity in the workplace is thought to be the direct legacy of the civil rights and feminist movements and the landmark Civil Rights Act of 1964. Yet, as Frank Dobbin demonstrates, corporate personnel experts--not Congress or the courts--were the ones who determined what equal opportunity meant in practice, designing changes in how employers hire, promote, and fire workers, and ultimately defining what discrimination is, and is not, in the American imagination. Dobbin shows how Congress and the courts merely endorsed programs devised by corporate personnel. He traces how the first measures were adopted by military contractors worried that the Kennedy administration would cancel their contracts if they didn't take "affirmative action" to end discrimination. These measures built on existing personnel programs, many designed to prevent bias against unionists. Dobbin follows the changes in the law as personnel experts invented one wave after another of equal opportunity programs. He examines how corporate personnel formalized hiring and promotion practices in the 1970s to eradicate bias by managers; how in the 1980s they answered Ronald Reagan's threat to end affirmative action by recasting their efforts as diversity-management programs; and how the growing presence of women in the newly named human resources profession has contributed to a focus on sexual harassment and work/life issues. Inventing Equal Opportunity reveals how the personnel profession devised--and ultimately transformed--our understanding of discrimination.
Book Synopsis Affirmative Exclusion by : Jean-Loup Amselle
Download or read book Affirmative Exclusion written by Jean-Loup Amselle and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2003 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jean-Loup Amselle explores the issue of multiculturalism by delving into the history of France's confrontation with ethnic difference. Amselle analyzes France's relationship to Egypt, Algeria, and Senegal to show how ideas about difference and assimilation played out in French colonial policies and how these same tensions continue to be problematic as France grapples with cultural pluralism.Amselle's book has timely and wide-ranging implications. Arguing against the "liberal communitarian state" as it exists in the United States, Amselle contends that an overemphasis on difference can lead to what he calls "affirmative exclusion"--the flip side of affirmative action. The recognition of a multiplicity of ethnic groups in France, he asserts, creates an environment that fosters racism. "Despite an outward appearance of generosity, supporters of French-style multiculturalism, by promoting 'affirmative action, ' run the risk of creating as many difficulties as there are 'target groups, ' which they have helped identify and hence produce."Calling on theories of racial difference devised by early anthropologists--most notably, Louis Faidherbe--and on the work of political philosophers such as Thomas Hobbes, John Locke, and Jean-Jacques Rousseau, Amselle makes historical and sociological sense of the debates over multiculturalism and the violence they engender. Toward a French Multiculturalism proposes directions for the future.

Violence is a serious issue which directly affects the lives of many young people. It often results in lasting damage to their well-being and integrity, putting even their lives at risk. Gender-based violence, including violence against women, remains a key human rights challenge in contemporary Europe and in the world. Working with young people on human rights education is one way of preventing gender-based violence from occurring. By raising awareness on why and how it manifests and exploring its impact on people and in society, gender-based violence will no longer go undetected. Gender really does matter, to women, to men, to young people - to all of us. This manual serves to explore these human rights issues and act upon them."--Book jacket.

Book Synopsis PROMOTION DE LA SANTE ET AUTONOMISATION DANS LE CONTEXTE AFRICAIN by : David HouŽto
Download or read book PROMOTION DE LA SANTE ET AUTONOMISATION DANS LE CONTEXTE AFRICAIN written by David HouŽto and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2014-02-26 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le terme promotion de la santé en Afrique, près de 30 ans après l'adoption de la Charte d'Ottawa, continue d'avoir des connotations complètement hors du sens que lui confère cette charte. Cela n'est pas étonnant quand on sait que la notion de santé dans ce contexte africain équivaut à la lutte contre la maladie à travers les soins de santé dispensés par des professionnels de la santé dans des formations sanitaires et les hôpitaux. L'évolution que connait le continent depuis quelques décennies est de donner un peu plus de place à la communauté à travers les relais communautaires dans une participation communautaire vidée de son contenu, car le pouvoir n'est jamais passé entre les mains des communautés.C'est au vu de tout ceci que le présent ouvrage à sa raison d'être pour expliquer les fondements de l'autonomisation communautaire et de la promotion de la santé avec leur importance pour la région africaine en proie aux mauvais indicateurs de santé comparativement aux autres régions du monde.
Book Synopsis Diversité en milieu de travail by : Catherine Beaudry
Download or read book Diversité en milieu de travail written by Catherine Beaudry and published by Editions JFD. This book was released on 2021-11-12 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nonobstant les avancées réalisées au cours des dernières années, certaines personnes appartenant à des groupes historiquement défavorisés demeurent sous-représentées et discriminées sur le marché du travail. Le milieu de travail s’inscrit dans un contexte socio-économique en perpétuelle mouvance. De cette relation complexe entre l’organisation et le contexte social découlent des enjeux majeurs en matière de gestion de la diversité. Il importe de mieux comprendre les conséquences, positives et négatives, du cadre légal et des diverses pratiques de gestion pour les personnes concernées pour ainsi poser les jalons d’une gestion de la diversité équitable et inclusive, exempte d’effets de marginalisation. Cet ouvrage collectif rend compte de résultats de recherche et de réflexions théoriques sur le thème de la gestion de la diversité des groupes en quête d’équité. Les deux sections qui composent ce collectif abordent le vécu professionnel des femmes et des personnes racialisées ou de la diversité ethnique en milieu de travail, en considérant les aspects légaux en matière de lutte à la discrimination et les pratiques organisationnelles et syndicales s’inscrivant dans un contexte socioéconomique particulier. L’analyse du parcours différencié des femmes en milieu de travail constitue l’objet de la première section. Elle traite plus précisément de la situation des femmes dans la sphère professionnelle qui, en dépit de certaines améliorations, demeure inégale à celle des hommes. Les rapports sociaux de genre et la manière dont s’institutionnalisent les discriminations pénalisent les femmes sur le marché du travail d’où la persistance d’un plafond de verre ou encore la création de carrières de second ordre pour les mères particulièrement. Les chapitres 1 à 6 traitent de cette thématique de genre. La deuxième section porte sur la mosaïque ethnoculturelle en milieu de travail. La persistance des obstacles rencontrés par les personnes racialisées ou de la diversité ethnique et culturelle en milieu de travail est abordée aux chapitres 7 à 11. Ils s’intéressent au vécu des personnes discriminées, puis aux compétences interculturelles et aux pratiques organisationnelles façonnant la gestion de la diversité ethnoculturelle dans les milieux de travail.
Book Synopsis Gender Bias and the State by : Amy G. Mazur
Download or read book Gender Bias and the State written by Amy G. Mazur and published by University of Pittsburgh Press. This book was released on 1995 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first systematic study of French policy regarding equal employment for women. Mazur asks why policy makers choose to make symbolic reforms. Is there a certain set of conditions particularly conducive to the formation of symbolic reform? If symbolic reforms are meant to do nothing, why do governments allocate limited resources to them? Mazur examines five legislative proposals, dating from 1967 to 1982, three of which resulted in legislation: the 1972 Equal Pay Law. the 1975 Equal Treatment Law, and the 1983 Egalité Professionelle Law. These five case studies reveal the continuity over three decades of “symbolic” reform, reform that does not solve the problem it was designed to address.

Book Synopsis Postethnic America by : David A Hollinger
Download or read book Postethnic America written by David A Hollinger and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2006-02-28 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sympathetic with the new ethnic consciousness, Hollinger argues that the conventional liberal toleration of all established ethnic groups no longer works because it leaves unchallenged the prevailing imbalance of power. Yet the multiculturalist alternative does nothing to stop the fragmenting of American society into competing ethnic enclaves, each concerned primarily with its own well-being. Hollinger argues instead for a new cosmopolitanism, an appreciation of multiple identities -- new cross-cultural affiliations based not on the biologically given but on consent, on the right to emphasize or diminish the significance of one's ethnoracial affiliation. Postethnic America is a bracing reminder of America's universalist promise as a haven for all peoples. While recognizing the Eurocentric narrowness of that older universalism, Hollinger makes a stirring call for a new nationalism. He urges that a democratic nation-state like ours must help bridge the gap between our common fellowship as human beings and the great variety of ethnic and racial groups represented within the United States.
Book Synopsis A History of Human Rights in Canada by : Janet Miron
Download or read book A History of Human Rights in Canada written by Janet Miron and published by Canadian Scholars’ Press. This book was released on 2009 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Human rights, equality, and social justice are at the forefront of public concern and political debate in Canada. Global events--especially the "war on terrorism"―have fostered further interest in the abuse of human rights, especially when sanctioned or perpetuated by democratic governments. This groundbreaking contributed volume seeks to shed light on this topic by uniting original essays that examine the history of human rights in Canada. Contributors explore a variety of themes integral to the post-confederation period, including immigration and ethnicity, gender, sexuality, class, disability, state formation, and provincial-federal relations. Three key issues emerge throughout: incidents of discrimination in both government and society, the efforts of human rights and civil liberties activists to create a more open and tolerant society, and the implementation of state legislation designed to protect or enhance civil rights.
