Book excerpt: El crecimiento exponencial de las desigualdades entre individuos y colectivos requiere revisar nuestros enfoques conceptuales y metodológicos sobre el alcance real de la igualdad material, la justicia social y el acceso a los sistemas de protección. Durante las últimas décadas, han sido diversos y numerosos los enfoques desarrollados para explicar las desigualdades sociales complejas. Entre ellos, la interseccionalidad es un instrumento que se perfila desde la literatura científica crítica como una reformulación teórica importante, capaz de diseccionar en profundidad el carácter compuesto o múltiple de la desigualdad (y otros fenómenos afines) y aportar un mayor nivel de complejidad y comprensión a la hora de identificar las diferentes interacciones de los sistemas de dominio y subordinación que afectan a grupos e individuos. Ambas cuestiones son determinantes para analizar los procesos y las dinámicas de desigualdad, exclusión, marginalización y discriminación perpetuados actualmente. Desde una perspectiva crítica, este volumen colectivo pretende contribuir a la necesidad de seguir explorando, debatiendo y (re)considerando los progresos y retrocesos teórico-prácticos que plantea la interseccionalidad en la práctica jurídica y en las políticas públicas. Para ello, se recoge una primera selección de trabajos que inciden en el impacto teórico que la interseccionalidad ha tenido en el tratamiento de formas complejas de la desigualdad y examinan desde diferentes ejes cuáles han sido sus principales aportes en el ámbito jurídico. Seguidamente, se complementa con una segunda parte más centrada en el análisis del potencial «corrector» del enfoque interseccional en las principales tendencias jurisprudenciales (a nivel europeo) abarcando tanto su tratamiento en ámbitos concretos de posible discriminación múltiple (minorías, personas con discapacidad, ciudadanos migrantes), como en la interseccionalidad estructural. Como cierre, se incluye un conjunto de trabajos críticos y evidencias empíricas sobre los avances de las políticas públicas, para entender la lucha contra los fenómenos complejos de desigualdad, así como el problema de la multiplicidad y la intersección de las desigualdades.Dolores Morondo, Cristina de la Cruz y Encarnación La Spina, coordinadoras de este volumen colectivo, son investigadoras del Instituto de Derechos Humanos Pedro Arrupe de la Universidad de Deusto y del equipo de investigación «Derechos Humanos y Retos socioculturales de un mundo en transformación» (Grupo reconocido por el Gobierno Vasco en la categoría A de excelencia).

Book excerpt: "La interseccionalidad es una propuesta surgida del feminismo Negro de los Estados Unidos en los años ochenta que ha influido de forma central en la concepción sobre las desigualdades sociales y la discriminación tanto en la investigación en ciencias sociales como en los movimientos sociales y las administraciones públicas. Su premisa básica es que no se puede entender la desigualdad desde un solo marco explicativo (como el género, la raza, la clase o la edad) y que hace falta considerar la interrelación entre ellos para entender cómo se configura. Con este libro se traen a nuestro contexto los debates existentes a nivel internacional sobre el concepto y se propone una aproximación propia: la consideración del lugar como elemento constitutivo de las dinámicas interseccionales y la incorporación de la dimensión emocional en el análisis de las desigualdades. Se aportan herramientas concretas para aplicar marcos interseccionales en la investigación, nuevos conceptos para reflexionar sobre las propias posiciones de opresión y privilegio y elementos para afrontar algunos de los retos políticos actuales: las exclusiones dentro de los feminismos, la relación entre la lucha de clases y otros ejes de desigualdad, la crítica antirracista en los movimientos feministas y de izquierdas o el surgimiento de nuevos sujetos políticos."

Book excerpt: Esta tesis, presentada como compendio, analiza cómo y porqué se incorpora el enfoque interseccional en las agendas políticas de los gobiernos y los movimientos sociales y en la práctica jurídica. Para responder a estas preguntas de investigación se ha elegido la metodología de estudio de casos, seleccionando tres casos diferenciados: uno en el ámbito de las políticas públicas -el de las políticas LGTB en Cataluña-, otro en el de los movimientos sociales -el del movimiento de indignados en España- y un tercero en el ámbito del derecho antidiscriminación – el caso de B.S c. España-. Fruto del análisis realizado de los tres casos se han definido dos modelos analíticos, con sus dimensiones y variables, capaces de captar las diferentes formas en que la perspectiva interseccional se pone en práctica en cada uno de los contextos analizados, así como los factores que entran en juego en esta implementación. Se concluye, en primer lugar, que la perspectiva interseccional se traslada a la práctica de forma diversa, y que esta variación se debe en parte al ámbito en el que se circunscribe. En segundo lugar, se observa que la calidad de las interpretaciones que finalmente se realizan puede variar. Hay perspectivas con mayor calidad, como la del movimiento de indignados, y otras con menor calidad. Esta calidad depende del mayor o menor alcance de esta perspectiva (mayor centralidad, sistematización y combinación del modelo inter e intra-categórico), del énfasis que se ponga en las causas y/o en los efectos, y de cómo se articulan y visibilizan las relaciones entre desigualdades. En tercer y último lugar, el análisis de los factores macro, meso y micro para el conjunto de los ámbitos seleccionados en esta tesis ha contribuido a concluir que la puesta en práctica de la interseccionalidad se produce gracias a una combinación de factores. Así mimo, hemos observado, que el peso de estos factores puede ser distinto dependiendo del contexto. Por ejemplo, se ha observado que las estructuras híbridas, la igual cobertura de los ejes de desigualdad en las legislaciones y la apertura de estas legislaciones a proteger todas las posibles desigualdades pueden tener un papel importante en determinados contextos. También se ha corroborado que el peso del nivel meso es fuerte en los tres casos, y que en este nivel hay múltiples factores en juego. Una contribución clave de esta tesis es haber profundizado en la relación existente entre los diferentes factores meso: la capacidad de presión de los actores, su formación, las alianzas que establecen entre ellos y los mecanismos de participación y decisión. Finalmente, el análisis del nivel micro aplicado al caso jurídico nos indica que este nivel puede tener un rol clave en determinados contextos, y que es necesario explorar en mayor medida su posible peso más allá del ámbito jurídico. En conjunto, la presente tesis ha profundizado en uno de los terrenos menos explorados por parte de la teoría de la interseccionalidad -el análisis de las condiciones que pueden impulsar la perspectiva interseccional- ofreciendo una sistematización y valoración crítica de las variables que explican la pluralidad con la que se concreta la perspectiva interseccional y los factores que entran en juego en su entrada en las agendas políticas y la praxis jurídica. Esta sistematización es pues un paso más para ir construyendo la teoría de la interseccionalidad. Gracias a este análisis, esta tesis ha podido también apuntar en sus conclusiones algunas directrices para la aplicación práctica de este enfoque en el campo político y jurídico con el objetivo de facilitar la tarea al conjunto de actores que en estos terrenos se dedican a la defensa de los derechos humanos y a combatir la desigualdad social.

Download or read book Health Inequities in Canada written by Olena Hankivsky and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2011-05-28 with total page 414 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a growing recognition that existing theories on, and approaches to, health inequities are limited in their ability to capture how these inequities are produced through changing, co-constituted, and intersecting effects of multiple forms of oppression. Intersectionality responds to this problem by considering the interactions and combined impacts of social locations and structural processes on the creation and perpetuation of inequities. It offers unique insights into, and possible solutions to, some of Canada’s most pressing health disparities. This volume brings together Canadian activists, community-based researchers, and scholars from a range of disciplines to apply interpretations of intersectionality to health and organizational governance cases. By addressing specific health issues, this book advances methodological applications of intersectionality in health research, policy, and practice. Most importantly, it demonstrates that health inequities cannot be understood or addressed without the interrogation of power and diverse social locations and structures that shape lives and experiences of health.

Download or read book Occupational Science written by Gail E. Whiteford and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2012-02-13 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Occupational Science: Society, Inclusion, Participation is the must have resource for occupational therapists, occupational scientists, students and researchers. The book begins with a comprehensive review of the current literature and the knowledge generated to date. Reasons for the field's limited impact are proposed, including its focus on individuals rather than groups and communities, its psychological view of occupation, and its narrow focus on socially approved occupations. Global realities such as poverty, anti-social behaviour and ageing populations are discussed and implications for action are considered. The second section of the books comprises a series of chapters that address the philosophical, theoretical and scientific bases that underpin and inform everyday decision making in occupational therapy practice. This is followed by a section on methodological and structural considerations. The concluding chapter offers a critical reflection on methods, strategies, values and relationships for the future, to achieve a relevant science that makes a difference to current occupational realities. Written by an internationally renowned team of contributors, this book offers a truly comprehensive critique of the field. Features • Internationally renowned Editors and contributors • First comprehensive text on occupational science • Fully up to date with the latest thinking and research • Links theory to practice

Download or read book The Ecological Native written by Astrid Ulloa and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-09-13 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text analyzes indigenous peoples' processes of identity construction as ecological natives. It opens space for reconstructing all the different networks, conditions of emergence, and implications (political, cultural, social and economic) of one specific event: the consolidation of the relationship between indigenous peoples and environmentalism. This text is based on ethnographic information and focused on the historical process of the emergence of indigenous peoples' movements in Latin America, in general, and indigenous peoples of the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta do Columbia (SNSM), in particular. It demonstrates the process of the construction of indigenous peoples' environmental identities as an interplay of local, national and transnational dynamics among indigenous peoples and environmental movements and discourses in relation to global environmental policies.

Download or read book Mixed Race Studies written by Jayne O. Ifekwunigwe and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-03-24 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mixed race studies is one of the fastest growing, as well as one of the most important and controversial areas in the field of race and ethnic relations. Bringing together pioneering and controversial scholarship from both the social and the biological sciences, as well as the humanities, this reader charts the evolution of debates on 'race' and 'mixed race' from the nineteenth to the twenty-first century. The book is divided into three main sections: tracing the origins: miscegenation, moral degeneracy and genetics mapping contemporary and foundational discourses: 'mixed race', identities politics, and celebration debating definitions: multiraciality, census categories and critiques. This collection adds a new dimension to the growing body of literature on the topic and provides a comprehensive history of the origins and directions of 'mixed race' research as an intellectual movement. For students of anthropology, race and ethnicity, it is an invaluable resource for examining the complexities and paradoxes of 'racial' thinking across space, time and disciplines.

Download or read book Resonant Violence written by Kerry Whigham and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2022-02-11 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the Holocaust in Europe to the military dictatorships of Latin America to the enduring violence of settler colonialism around the world, genocide has been a defining experience of far too many societies. In many cases, the damaging legacies of genocide lead to continued violence and social divisions for decades. In others, however, creative responses to this identity-based violence emerge from the grassroots, contributing to widespread social and political transformation. Resonant Violence explores both the enduring impacts of genocidal violence and the varied ways in which states and grassroots collectives respond to and transform this violence through memory practices and grassroots activism. By calling upon lessons from Germany, Poland, Argentina, and the Indigenous United States, Resonant Violence demonstrates how ordinary individuals come together to engage with a violent past to pave the way for a less violent future.

Download or read book The Two Sexes written by Eleanor E. Maccoby and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 1998 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How does being male or female shape us? And what, aside from obvious anatomical differences, does being male or female mean? In this book, the distinguished psychologist Eleanor Maccoby explores how individuals express their sexual identity at successive periods of their lives. A book about sex in the broadest sense, The Two Sexes seeks to tell us how our development from infancy through adolescence and into adulthood is affected by gender. Chief among Maccoby's contentions is that gender differences appear primarily in group, or social, contexts. In childhood, boys and girls tend to gravitate toward others of their own sex. The Two Sexes examines why this segregation occurs and how boys' groups and girls' groups develop distinct cultures with different agendas. Deploying evidence from her own research and studies by many other scholars, Maccoby identifies a complex combination of biological, cognitive, and social factors that contribute to gender segregation and group differentiation. A major finding of The Two Sexes is that these childhood experiences in same-sex groups profoundly influence how members of the two sexes relate to one another in adulthood--as lovers, coworkers, and parents. Maccoby shows how, in constructing these adult relationships, men and women utilize old elements from their childhood experiences as well as new ones arising from different adult agendas. Finally, she considers social changes in gender roles in light of her discoveries about the constraints and opportunities implicit in the same-sex and cross-sex relationships of childhood.

Download or read book Africana Womanism written by Clenora Hudson (Weems) and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-10-02 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1993, this is a new edition of the classic text in which Clenora Hudson-Weems sets out a paradigm for women of African descent. Examining the status, struggles and experiences of the Africana woman forced into exile in Europe, Latin America, the United States or at Home in Africa, the theory outlines the experience of Africana women as unique and separate from that of some other women of color, and, of course, from white women. Differentiating itself from the problematic theories of Western feminisms, Africana Womanism allows an establishment of cultural identity and relationship directly to ancestry and land. This new edition includes five new chapters as well as an evolution of the classic Africana womanist paradigm, to that of Africana-Melanated Womanism. It shows how race, class and gender must be prioritized in the fight against every day racial dominance. Africana Womanism: Reclaiming Ourselves offers a new term and paradigm for women of African descent. A family-centered concept, prioritizing race, class and gender, it offers eighteen features of the Africana womanist (self-namer, self-definer, family-centered, genuine in sisterhood, strong, in concert with male in the liberation struggle, whole, authentic, flexible role player, respected, recognized, spiritual, male compatible, respectful of elders, adaptable, ambitious, mothering, nurturing), applying them to characters in novels by Hurston, Bâ, Marshall, Morrison and McMillan. It evolves from Africana Womanism to Africana-Melanated Womanism. This is an important work and essential reading for researchers and students in women and gender studies, Africana studies, African-American studies, literary studies and cultural studies, particularly with the emergence of family centrality (community and collective engagement), the very cornerstone of Africana Womanism since its inception.
