Book Acci  n colectiva e incidencia LGBT en M  xico

Download or read book Acci n colectiva e incidencia LGBT en M xico written by Alejandro Natal Martínez and published by El Colegio Mexiquense. This book was released on 2023-03-28 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Los autores plantean que si alguien se ha preguntado sobre "¿por qué el movimiento LGBT logró incidir en tan poco tiempo en transformaciones tan importantes como la de unión entre personas del mismo sexo y la adopción homoparental?" entonces debe leer este libro. Acción Colectiva e Incidencia LGBT en México es una obra de particular relevancia que resalta cómo en un periodo muy breve, las acciones del movimiento LGBT incidieron en la modificación de varias leyes importantes que limitaban el ejercicio pleno de os derechos de las poblaciones LGBT. Describen la lucha de este movimiento plural sexo-genérico y analizan las estrategias seguidas por estos grupos de la Sociedad Civil enfrentados a leyes discriminatorias hasta lograr su modificación para el avance de sus derechos. Cuestionan cómo un sector de la sociedad mexicana logró una transformación sociocultural en un país mayoritariamente católico y conservador, en lo social. Reconocen que la cultura machista acendrada y la opinión pública adversa, así como su gobierno antagónico y el entorno político donde no eran evidentes, del todo, los espacios de participación ciudadana estuvieron en contra de este movimiento. Explican también que las relaciones causales existentes entre la acción colectiva del movimiento LGBT y sus logros para vencer estas adversidades logró transformar leyes que restringían sus libertades que, con la lucha constante han construido un espacio público e institucional libres de discriminación. Aseguran que esta obra puede leerse también como el estudio del conjunto de estrategias que fueron llevando a un grupo de la sociedad civil a construir las bases que en materia legislativa han logrado cambios que años atrás hubieran sido impensables. Sugieren una lectura obligada para estudiosos de movimientos sociales, organizaciones civiles y activistas, que buscan la transformación legal y cultural en contextos diversos. Destacan que esta obra es de interés para quien estudia movimientos sociales, acción colectiva y participación ciudadana, pero, sobre todo, es una lectura indispensable para quien busca entender cómo se pueden ampliar los derechos e incidir en materia legislativa.

Book excerpt: The last two decades have witnessed an explosion of research on sexuality as the social sciences have worked to find new ways of understanding a rapidly changing world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: LGBTQ Mental Health: International Perspectives and Experiences expands our understanding of mental health by considering the unique challenges faced by LGBTQ communities in the Majority World. Increased globalization and migration has highlighted the need for mental health clinicians to better understand these communities' experiences and needs. This book provides an overview of LGBTQ mental health in non-Western countries or regions that have heretofore received little attention in the psychology literature. Chapters focus on the cultural, social, legal, political, and psychological experiences of various LGBTQ subpopulations in Peru, Colombia, Ecuador, Jamaica, Russia, Mongolia, India, Malaysia, Thailand, and sub-Saharan Africa. Contributors summarize existing research on mental health outcomes for LGBTQ individuals in these countries or regions; offer key insights that challenge culturally-specific conceptions of normative, LGBTQ mental health and behavior; and offer recommendations for further research and mental health practice with these populations.

Book Equality of Opportunity for Sexual and Gender Minorities

Download or read book Equality of Opportunity for Sexual and Gender Minorities written by John Arzinos and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2021-12-02 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite legal and social advances in the past two decades, sexual and gender minorities continue to face widespread discrimination and violence in many countries. This discrimination and violence lead to exclusion, which adversely impacts their lives, as well as the communities and economies in which they live. A major barrier to addressing this stigma and sexual orientation and gender identity(SOGI)-based exclusion is the lack of SOGI-specific data. Robust, quantitative data on di‚fferential development experiences and outcomes of sexual and gender minorities--especially those in developing countries--is extremely thin. This paucity of data jeopardizes the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals and countries' commitment to the principle of 'leaving no one behind' in the eff‚ort to end poverty and inequality. 'Equality of Opportunity for Sexual and Gender Minorities' assesses the unique challenges that sexual and gender minorities face in six important areas: (i) Criminalization and SOGI (ii) Access to education (iii) Access to the labor market (iv) Access to public services and social protection (v) Civil and political inclusion (vi) Protection from hate crimes. This report cov‚ers numerous policy recommendations to prevent and eliminate discriminatory practices in all of the areas covered. It also seeks to inflŽuence legislative changes and support research on institutions and regulations that can ultimately lead to poverty reduction and shared prosperity. At the same time, it acknowledges that the mere existence of inclusive laws and regulations does not ensure that sexual and gender minorities are free from discrimination--the enforcement of those laws is crucial. This publication, the first in a series of studies, will be expanded from the 16 countries included here to a wider set of countries for more in-depth quantitative analysis and to identify possible correlations with socioeconomic outcomes. It will seek to deepen knowledge, facilitate peer learning of good practices, and encourage reforms to increase the inclusion of sexual and gender minorities.

Book Transformative Constitutionalism in Latin America

Download or read book Transformative Constitutionalism in Latin America written by Armin von Bogdandy and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2017-06-16 with total page 465 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This ground-breaking collection of essays outlines and explains the unique development of Latin American jurisprudence. It introduces the idea of the Ius Constitutionale Commune en América Latina (ICCAL), an original Latin American path of transformative constitutionalism, to an Anglophone audience for the first time. It charts the key developments that have transformed the region and assesses the success of the constitutional projects that followed a period of authoritarian regimes in Latin America. Coined by scholars who have been documenting, conceptualizing, and comparing the development of Latin American public law for more than a decade, the term ICCAL encompasses themes that cross national borders and legal fields, taking in constitutional law, administrative law, general public international law, regional integration law, human rights, and investment law. Not only does this volume map the legal landscape, it also suggests measures to improve society via due legal process and a rights-based, supranational and regionally rooted constitutionalism. The editors contend that with the strengthening of democracy, the rule of law, and human rights, common problems such as the exclusion of wide sectors of the population from having a say in government, as well as corruption, hyper-presidentialism, and the weak normativity of the law can be combatted more effectively in future.

Download or read book Protest and Democracy written by Moises Arce and published by . This book was released on 2019-06-15 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2011, political protests sprang up across the world. In the Middle East, Europe, Latin America, the United States unlikely people sparked or led massive protest campaigns from the Arab Spring to Occupy Wall Street. These protests were made up of educated and precariously employed young people who challenged the legitimacy of their political leaders, exposed a failure of representation, and expressed their dissatisfaction with their place in the aftermath of financial and economic crisis. This book interrogates what impacts--if any--this global protest cycle had on politics and policy and shows the sometimes unintended ways it continues to influence contemporary political dynamics throughout the world. Proposing a new framework of analysis that calls attention to the content and claims of protests, their global connections, and the responsiveness of political institutions to protest demands, this is one of the few books that not only asks how protest movements are formed but also provides an in-depth examination of what protest movements can accomplish. With contributions examining the political consequences of protest, the roles of social media and the internet in protest organization, left- and right-wing movements in the United States, Chile's student movements, the Arab Uprisings, and much more this collection is essential reading for all those interested in the power of protest to shape our world.
