Book excerpt: A lo largo de las tres décadas transcurridas desde el inicio de las transiciones post-autoritarias, hemos asistido a una mutación en las democracias de la región. La legitimidad electoral es indiscutible y se ha afirmado la voluntad ciudadana como sustento del poder. Ahora se constata un desplazamiento en la vida política. Una ciudadanía informada y vigilante alcanza una presencia contínua en la vida pública: el haber votado por unos u otros no la lleva a depositar una confianza definitiva en quienes gobiernan. La vigilancia, el juicio sobre las decisiones de gobierno, el veto y la autorrepresentación ilustran los rasgos que adquiere una democracia contínua. En algunos países el advenimiento de la democracia y su cambio de fisonomía se asociaron a la instalación de gobiernos reformistas, y en otros, a la emergencia de proyectos fundacionales. Esos nuevos gobiernos han resultado de los cambios ciudadanos mencionados y a la vez han procurado canalizarlos. Los diferentes enfoques compilados en este libro procuran dar cuenta de estas novedades que se presentan para los estudios políticos en América Latina.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ¿Cuál es la magnitud y el sentido de los cambios a los que asistimos actualmente? ¿Se trata de una ampliación de la democracia, de la reafirmación del voto como recurso inapelable para gobernar, de incorporación creciente de los excluidos, de un sentido de los derechos y la igualdad más profunda, de una efervescencia de la reflexividad por sobre las convenciones, y de las demandas de justicia? Pero, ¿no nos encontramos también ante una conmoción que altera las formas tradicionales de la instituicionalidad democrática, es decir, debilitamiento de los partidos y otras formas de mediación en provecho de liderazgos de popularidad que procuran establecer vínculos de representación directa con la ciudadanía?

Download or read book Elecciones y legitimidad democr tica en Am rica Latina written by Fernando Mayorga and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La democracia es un elemento de disputa discursiva en América Latina porque existen posiciones políticas disímiles que corresponden, por lo menos, a un par de enfoques interpretativos de carácter normativo sobre esta forma de gobierno. Una postura cuestiona la democracia liberal por sus limitaciones representativas y deriva en apelaciones a la democracia participativa como una alternativa que desdeña de las mediaciones partidistas. Una mirada opuesta reclama la vigencia plena de la democracia representativa y el Estado de derecho para establecer límites a la participación popular porque la acción directa de los movimientos sociales debilita los canales institucionales de la política. La primera interpretación es anatemizada como populista, la segunda es cuestionada por socialdemócrata o liberal.

Download or read book The North American Mosaic written by Commission for Environmental Cooperation (Montréal, Québec). Secretariat and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The North American Mosaic has four overarching features. First, it is, to the extent feasible, based on comparable information on the status and trends of major indicators of the state of the environment in Canada,Mexico, and the United States. Second, the report confirms that these three countries together make up an incredibly complex, dynamic, and interconnected ecosystem in which humans play a dominant and decisive role. Third, the report raises important and sometimes disquieting questions concerning the sustainability of some current trends. Finally, the report is a reminder that our economic, social, and physical well-being are utterly dependent on the life-sustaining services provided by nature. This report emphasizes the importance of developing mutually compatible economic, social, and environmental goals and policies across the three-country region.

Book excerpt: The idea of finding a 'third way' in politics has been widely discussed over recent months - not only in the UK, but in the US, Continental Europe and Latin America. But what is the third way? Supporters of the notion haven't been able to agree, and critics deny the possibility altogether. Anthony Giddens shows that developing a third way is not only a possibility but a necessity in modern politics.
Download or read book Civic Education written by Richard G. Niemi and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2005-05-11 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sound democratic decisions rely on a citizenry with at least a partial mastery of the rules and workings of democratic government. American high schools, where students learn the basics of citizenship, thus ought to play a critical role in the success of democracy. Yet studies examining the impact of high school government and civics courses on political knowledge over the past quarter-century have generally shown that these courses have little or no effect. In this important book, Richard G. Niemi and Jane Junn take a fresh look at what America's high school seniors know about government and politics and how they learn it. The authors argue convincingly that secondary school civics courses do indeed enhance students' civic knowledge. This book is based on the most extensive assessment to date of civic knowledge among American youth--the 1988 National Assessment of Education Progress (NAEP) Civics Assessment. The authors develop and test a theoretical model to explain the cognitive process by which students learn about politics and they conclude by suggesting specific changes in the style and emphasis of civics teaching.

Download or read book Representations of Youth written by Christine Griffin and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-04-25 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Representations of Youth examines the various constructions of 'youth' and 'adolescence' in recent British and North American research. Mainstream and radical approaches have presented a series of 'crises' about young people in relation to, among other things, unemployment, 'teenage pregnancy' and 'delinquency'. This book considers research in psychology, sociology, education, criminology and cultural studies in order to assess these accounts. The author offers a critical review of a wide range of findings about young people in areas as diverse as education and training, leisure, family life and sexuality. She shows that whilst youth research texts do not reflect young people's experiences in any straightforward manner, they do indicate the various complex and contradictory ways in which 'youth', 'adolescence' and specific groups of young people are represented in contemporary western societies. In so arguing, she presents new terms for thinking about the position of young people today. This is an important new text accessibly written for students of sociology, social psychology and contemporary culture in both Britain and the USA. It will also be of great interest to social science researchers in a range of other disciplines.
Download or read book Assessing the Left Turn in Ecuador written by Francisco Sánchez and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-12-05 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the “left turn” in Latin American politics, specifically through the lens of Ecuador and the effects of the Citizens’ Revolution’s actions and public policies on relevant actors and institutions. Through a comprehensive analysis of one country’s turn to the left and the outcomes generated by that process, the authors and editors provide a clearer understanding of the ways in which the popular desire for change (predominant through the region in recent times, as a response to late-twentieth-century neoliberalism) was realized—or not. The particular case of Ecuador further potentiates analysis of the entire region-wide process, considering that the “corrector” cycle is now at an end, and that the economic and international conditions that favored the return of left governments have also changed.
Download or read book Environmental Crime and Social Conflict written by Avi Brisman and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2015-03-28 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This impressive collection of original essays explores the relationship between social conflict and the environment - a topic that has received little attention within criminology. The chapters provide a systematic and comprehensive introduction and overview of conflict situations stemming from human exploitation of environments, as well as the impact of social conflicts on the wellbeing and health of specific species and ecosystems. Largely informed by green criminology perspectives, the chapters in the book are intended to stimulate new understandings of the relationships between humans and nature through critical evaluation of environmental destruction and degradation associated with social conflicts occurring around the world. With a goal of creating a typology of environment-social conflict relationships useful for green criminological research, this study is essential reading for scholars and academics in criminology, as well as those interested in crime, law and justice.
