This book was released on 2001 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Concerns about culture are frequently raised in relation to initiatives for gender equality in development co-operation. In some cases, there are concerns that promotion of gender equality would interfere with local culture. In other cases, cultural values are described as a major constraint on efforts for gender equality, and therefore action is considered to be difficult for practical reasons. This document examines the validity of these concerns and discusses the challenges they present for development workers.
Download or read book Equality Governance via Policy Analysis written by Arn T. Sauer and published by transcript Verlag. This book was released on 2018-11-30 with total page 569 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gender impact assessment has been both celebrated as a beacon of hope for the cause of gender equality and criticised as being ineffectual. More than 20 years of gender mainstreaming have demonstrated that equality governance with and through impact assessment is an intersectional and still evolving process. Arn T. Sauer's study examines the instruments of gendered policy analysis and the conditions under which they are being used by the Canadian federal government and the European Commission. Interviews with experts from public administration and instrument designers as well as document analyses reveal benefits and challenges and show that the success of equality governance depends upon whether knowledge about gendered policy and appropriate administrative practices are embedded, embodied and entrenched in public administration.

This book was released on 2019-03-04 with total page 609 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Depuis 1967, année du centenaire de la Confédération, de nombreux épisodes de crise politique et de difficultés économiques ainsi que les événements internationaux ont contribué à la transformation de la société canadienne et continueront de façonner son avenir. En tenant compte de ces diverses difficultés et opportunités rencontrées dans le passé, à quoi ressemble l’avenir du Canada? Dans Réfléchir sur notre passé pour aborder notre avenir, des diplomates, des politiciens, des chercheurs et des personnages en vue dans le domaine des droits de l’homme, dont Phil Fontaine, Michaëlle Jean, Ellen Gabriel, Paul Heinbecker, Bob Rae, Jean Charest et David Suzuki mettent en commun leur sagesse et leur expérience des événements qui ont marqué l’histoire du pays au cours des cinquante dernières années. Réfléchissant au rôle complémentaire à la Chambre des communes du Sénat au Canada, ils examinent des enjeux clés comme la condition des peuples autochtones, les obligations imposées par la Charte des droits et libertés, la reconnaissance des deux langues officielles et les référendums sur l’unité nationale. Les collaborateurs abordent aussi la transformation de l’économie dans un monde numérisé et un système planétaire, le rôle du Canada sur la scène mondiale à une époque de tension croissante, le flot accru de réfugiés, les changements climatiques et l’incertitude entourant l’avenir de l’Arctique, la concurrence scientifique et culturelle sur le marché international et l’avenir de la démocratie parlementaire. Corrigeant les fausses idées à propos du rôle actuel du Sénat et donnant le contre-argument à une réforme radicale du Sénat, Réfléchir sur notre passé pour aborder notre avenir propose de riches perspectives et un aperçu fascinant de l’évolution probable du Canada au cours des prochaines années.
Download or read book CIDA s Policy on Gender Equality written by Canadian International Development Agency and published by Canadian Museum of Civilization/Musee Canadien Des Civilisations. This book was released on 1999 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recognizing that gender is an important social division marked by inequality, the Canadian International Development Agency's gender equality policy was revised in 1995 to emphasize the importance of gender equity and women's empowerment. This policy update builds on concepts long supported by the Agency and highlights a number of areas where Agency thinking has evolved. It includes a vision of gender equality for the 21st century, a rationale for the agency's gender equality policy, an outline of the goal and objectives of the policy, and description of the principles on which the policy is based. A table outlines the links between the Agency's policy of poverty reduction, its program priorities, and gender equality. Other sections of the update describe gender analysis as a tool in understanding and promoting gender equality, strategies and activities to support the achievement of gender equality, performance assessment of policy objectives, and practices to promote gender equality.

Download or read book Comparative Patriarchy and American Institutions written by Francis Feeley and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2010-02-19 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As Claude Lévi-Strauss wrote in his book, La pensée sauvage (Paris,1960): “biographical and anecdotal history … is low-powered history, which is not intelligible in itself, and only becomes so when it is transferred en bloc to a form of history of a higher power than itself … The historian’s relative choice … is always confined to the choice between history which teaches more and explains less and history which explains more and teaches less.” This book oscillates between analysis, which tries to explain what man is, and anecdote, which tries to teach what he is capable of becoming. What better approach to understanding patriarchy, beyond learning the formal dictionary definitions of this term, than by examining the richly diverse descriptions of gender relationships found in the following chapters? It is the hope of these authors that the recognition of national differences and gender differences will provide new vantage points from which we may gain wider perspectives on our own prejudices and thereby find fulfillment of our aspirations to become more fully human.

Download or read book Marketing and Football written by Michel Desbordes and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-05-23 with total page 546 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Football is arguably one of the most important sports in the world, and the marketing of football has become an increasingly important issue, as clubs and product owners need to generate more revenue from the sport. In a wider context, football marketing has also become a benchmarking standard for other sports to learn from worldwide. The practices and processes of such an established industry are important lessons for those sports which are yet to maximise on their potential earnings, and provide interesting lessons in sports marketing in general. Marketing and Football: an international approach is the first book to provide a comprehensive and entirely global approach to this subject. Written by an international team of contributors who are keen researchers in the field, it examines in two parts: the study of football marketing in Europe and the development of a marketing dedicated to football, with the question of the European example being used worldwide. A ground breaking text, it provides the reader with: * Contributions from the UK, Norway, France, Italy, Germany, Spain, Portugal, Ireland, Finland, Scotland, Brazil, Japan, USA, Canada, Argentina, Korea and Australia * Interviews with professional sports marketers representing some of the biggest clubs worldwide: Juventus Turin, FC Barcelona, Milan AC, Inter Milan, AS Rome, Olympique Lyonnais, Vicenza, SE Palmeiras, Atletico Mineiro, Atletico PR Marketing and Football: an international approach is a seminal text which will pave the way for future academics and practitioners to work, it is the first book to discuss and move towards a marketing dedicated to football.

Book excerpt: Does gender make a difference to the way the judiciary works and should work? Or is gender-blindness a built-in prerequisite of judicial objectivity? If gender does make a difference, how might this be defined? These are the key questions posed in this collection of essays, by some 30 authors from the following countries; Argentina, Cambodia, Canada, England, France, Germany, India, Israel, Italy, Ivory Coast, Japan, Kenya, the Netherlands, the Philippines, South Africa, Switzerland, Syria and the United States. The contributions draw on various theoretical approaches, including gender, feminist and sociological theories. The book's pressing topicality is underlined by the fact that well into the modern era male opposition to women's admission to, and progress within, the judicial profession has been largely based on the argument that their very gender programmes women to show empathy, partiality and gendered prejudice - in short essential qualities running directly counter to the need for judicial objectivity. It took until the last century for women to begin to break down such seemingly insurmountable barriers. And even now, there are a number of countries where even this first step is still waiting to happen. In all of them, there remains a more or less pronounced glass ceiling to women's judicial careers.
Download or read book Alf lahga wa lahga written by Olivier Durand and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on 2014 with total page 507 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is a collection of articles written by more than 40 scholars who work in the field of Arabic dialectology. All articles are revised versions of papers presented at the 9th Conference of the Association Internationale de Dialectologie Arabe (AIDA) held in Pescara in March 2011. The variety of dialects represented in the book engage various issues in Arabic dialectology - such as sedentary and Bedouin dialects, sociolinguistic phenomena, and the written dimension - investigated from both synchronic and diachronic perspectives. The broad range of meaningful subjects that are tackled in the book offer an important contribution to the current debates on general linguistics and sociolinguistics, Arabic linguistics, Arabic literature, as well as Semitic and Islamic studies.
