Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Us and Them: why do some groups feel superior to others? Why is it that all too often the ‘inferior’ group accepts the evaluation of their status by the ‘superior’ group? What happens when an ‘inferior’ group decides to challenge the ‘superior’ group, and how do they go about it? Can a minority group seek to achieve equal treatment from the majority society but also retain their separate identity? The Social Psychology of Minorities seeks to answer these important questions which are of vital relevance to understanding the social realities of people’s lives and particularly to the mechanics of prejudice and discrimination. Written by Henri Tajfel, former Professor of Social Psychology at Bristol University, this succinct analysis discusses such concepts as the internal and external criteria of a minority group, the effects of social change, and the process and patterns of rejection and acceptance. An important report on a subject which helps to shape the relationship between minority groups and the majority society, The Social Psychology of Minorities will be especially useful to those concerned with social science, education and the achievement of good community relations.

Download or read book Algerian Sketches written by Pierre Bourdieu and published by Polity. This book was released on 2013-11-04 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the late 1950s, like tens of thousands of young men of his generation, Pierre Bourdieu, having recently passed the agrégation in philosophy, found himself immersed in the Algerian war. Motivated by an impulse that, as he himself says, ‘was civic rather than political’, nothing seemed more important to him than to understand the Algerian situation and provide the elements that would enable others to come to an informed judgement about it. In extremely tough conditions and along with a small group of students, Bourdieu undertook a series of studies across an Algeria that was tightly patrolled by the army, leading him to discover the shocking reality of the resettlement camps and to analyse the mechanisms of destruction of Algerian society of which they were emblematic. To achieve the objectives he had set himself, Bourdieu had to carry out a genuine intellectual conversion, acquiring an ethnographic understanding of Algerian society, learning sociological analysis at a breakneck pace and inventing new instruments - both theoretical and empirical - that would enable him to understand the relations of domination specific to colonialism. These new tools also enabled him to analyse the nature of the crisis that the war had both produced and manifested. This unique volume brings together the first texts written by Bourdieu in the midst of the Algerian conflict, as well as later writings and interviews in which he returns to the topic of Algeria and the decisive role it played in the development of his work.

Download or read book Handbook for Integrating Risk Analysis in the Economic Analysis of Projects written by Asian Development Bank and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aiming to support the development of a framework for the analysis of risk in project design and economic analysis, this handbook outlines technical approaches to modeling risk. Also summarized is the nature and practice of sensitivity analysis in dealing with uncertain outcomes as well as the principles to consider in typical risk analysis situations sector by sector. Case studies are included to demonstrate the application of quantitative risk analysis using actual Asian Development Bank projects to help improve project design and quality. Handbook users will learn to identify factors that are the key determinants of project outcomes, determine the likelihood of an individual project's returns being unacceptable, and design measures to mitigate the risks arising from the identified key factors.

Download or read book The Social Structures of the Economy written by Pierre Bourdieu and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2014-03-10 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Much orthodox economic theory is based on assumptions which are treated as self-evident: supply and demand are regarded as independent entities, the individual is assumed to be a rational agent who knows his interests and how to make decisions corresponding to them, and so on. But one has only to examine an economic transaction closely, as Pierre Bourdieu does here for the buying and selling of houses, to see that these abstract assumptions cannot explain what happens in reality. As Bourdieu shows, the market is constructed by the state, which can decide, for example, whether to promote private housing or collective provision. And the individuals involved in the transaction are immersed in symbolic constructions which constitute, in a strong sense, the value of houses, neighbourhoods and towns. The abstract and illusory nature of the assumptions of orthodox economic theory has been criticised by some economists, but Bourdieu argues that we must go further. Supply, demand, the market and even the buyer and seller are products of a process of social construction, and so-called ‘economic' processes can be adequately described only by calling on sociological methods. Instead of seeing the two disciplines in antagonistic terms, it is time to recognize that sociology and economics are in fact part of a single discipline, the object of which is the analysis of social facts, of which economic transactions are in the end merely one aspect. This brilliant study by the most original sociologist of post-war France will be essential reading for students and scholars of sociology, economics, anthropology and related disciplines.

Download or read book Sketch for a Self analysis written by Pierre Bourdieu and published by Polity. This book was released on 2007 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past four decades, French sociologist Pierre Bourdieu produced one of the most imaginative and subtle bodies of social theory of the postwar era. When he died in 2002, he was considered to be the most influential sociologist in the world and a thinker on a par with Foucault and Levi-Strauss - a public intellectual as important to his generation as Sartre was to his. Sketch for a Self-Analysis is the ultimate outcome of Bourdieu's lifelong preoccupation with reflexivity. Vehemently not an autobiography, this unique book is instead an application of Bourdieu's theories to his own life and intellectual trajectory; along the way it offers compelling and intimate insights into the most important French intellectuals of the time - including Foucault, Sartre, Aron, Althusser, and de Beauvoir - as well as Bourdieu's own formative experiences at boarding school and his moral outrage at the colonial war in Algeria.

This book was released on 2018-12-20T00:00:00-05:00 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jusqu’ici peu d’attention a été portée à l’évolution des services sociaux au Québec. Pourtant, ce secteur d’intervention constitue un des piliers du réseau de la santé et des services sociaux fondé dans les années 1970. Le présent ouvrage traite des enjeux actuels rencontrés par les acteurs de l’intervention sociale à l’ère managériale et plus directement les travailleuses sociales. Ces dernières accompagnent les personnes en difficulté, savent analyser des problèmes sociaux complexes, et interviennent dans différents milieux et auprès de divers acteurs. Ce livre s’intéresse à l’impact de la nouvelle gestion publique sur la profession du travail social dans divers secteurs : CISSS/CIUSSS, CLSC, centres jeunesse, centres hospitaliers, CHSLD, groupes de médecine familiale, organismes communautaires. Les différents chapitres soulèvent les enjeux éthiques et déontologiques provoqués par une gestion axée sur la reddition de comptes en fonction de la performance. La démarche visée par ce collectif d’auteurs a pour but d’apporter un éclairage et une réflexion sur les enjeux actuels et poser un regard prospectif sur les services sociaux au Québec.

Download or read book Pratiques d organisation communautaire en CSSS written by RQIIAC, and published by Puq. This book was released on 2010 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Avec la création des centres de santé et de services sociaux (CSSS) en 2004 et les transformations des communautés locales au cours de la dernière décennie, il était impératif pour le Regroupement québécois des intervenantes et intervenants en action communautaire en CSSS (RQIIAC) de réviser son cadre de référence publié en 2003. Adopté en mars 2010 à la suite d'une consultation menée dans diverses régions du Québec, le nouveau texte campe l'ensemble des dimensions essentielles de la pratique des organisatrices et organisateurs communautaires dans les CSSS. Il s'accompagne d'un cadre de pratique qui traite de l'organisation du travail, de son encadrement et de son soutien, ainsi que de quatorze récits de pratique qui illustrent concrètement les concepts qu'il avance. Destiné avant tout à celles et ceux qui exercent la profession, mais aussi à celles et ceux qui s'y préparent, de même qu'aux cadres des CSSS, l'ouvrage fait une mise à jour des acquis de près de quarante années d'exercice de l'organisation communautaire dans le réseau public québécois de la santé et des services sociaux. Il est aussi, à sa façon, un manifeste qui vise à consolider une pratique de changement social au sein du réseau public et à faire progresser les idéaux qui l'animent.
