Download or read book Cultural Foundations and Interventions in Latino a Mental Health written by Hector Y. Adames and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-07-07 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Advancing work to effectively study, understand, and serve the fastest growing U.S. ethnic minority population, this volume explicitly emphasizes the racial and ethnic diversity within this heterogeneous cultural group. The focus is on the complex historical roots of contemporary Latino/as, their diversity in skin-color and physiognomy, racial identity, ethnic identity, gender differences, immigration patterns, and acculturation. The work highlights how the complexities inherent in the diverse Latino/a experience, as specified throughout the topics covered in this volume, become critical elements of culturally responsive and racially conscious mental health treatment approaches. By addressing the complexities, within-group differences, and racially heterogeneity characteristic of U.S. Latino/as, this volume makes a significant contribution to the literature related to mental health treatments and interventions.
Download or read book Handbook of Multicultural Mental Health written by Freddy A. Paniagua and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2000-06-05 with total page 517 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Clinicians and mental health practitioners are regularly called upon to treat patients of diverse cultural and ethnic backgrounds. Not only do these patients differ from Anglos in culture and language, but also in customs, beliefs, values, and practices. Understanding these differences is vital to performing an accurate diagnosis/assessment of psychopathology as well as in determining an effective treatment regimen. This book provides vital information to clinicians worldwide in bettering their treatment of diverse populations. Each chapter identifies relevant cultural variables specific to each racial/ethnic group, along with ethnocultural measures and their relevant psychometric properties. Part 1 presents introductory material on the definition of mental illness and pathological behavior in differing cultures, epidemiological data on the prevalence of different disorders between differing population groups, culture specific beliefs (e.g. hexes), and the influence of culture on treatment. Part 2 discusses assessment issues including how specific measures (Rorschach, MMPI, etc.) are best interpreted with different population groups, and the existence and use of ethnocultural specific measures. Part 3 discusses assessment and treatment of specific population groups (e.g., Indians, Asians, Latinos, etc.).
Download or read book Interculturalidad mediaci n y trabajo colaborativo written by Andrés Escarbajal Frutos and published by Narcea Ediciones. This book was released on 2016-12-13 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La educación intercultural es el gran reto de la sociedad del siglo XXI. El contenido de este libro está pensado para que la teoría y la práctica de la educación intercultural estén íntimamente ligadas, de tal manera que permita no sólo reflexionar sobre el tema sino también, y fundamentalmente, actuar. El libro aborda algunas consecuencias de la inmigración, referidas tanto al mercado de trabajo y la economía como a sus consecuencias en el aspecto más humano, entroncado con los derechos de ciudadanía, el racismo y sus diversas manifestaciones. Se argumenta cómo la educación intercultural constituye un medio fundamental para desarrollar valores democráticos. De la misma manera, se hace un somero análisis del concepto y los tipos de mediación, la figura del mediador y las circunstancias que han hecho surgir la necesidad de la mediación intercultural: qué significa y su conexión con el sistema educativo, incluyendo estrategias de mediación que han demostrado ser altamente eficaces, además de numerosos ejemplos muy didácticos y clarificadores y pautas concretas para fomentar el diálogo intercultural. La segunda parte del libro, la más práctica, se centra en las estrategias de trabajo colaborativo e incluye gran cantidad de ejemplos para construir grupo, fomentar los procesos de comunicación, analizar la realidad, detectar problemas y necesidades, plantear juntos posibles soluciones y evaluar que han sido refrendados por la experiencia.

Download or read book Hibridismo cultural written by Peter Burke and published by Ediciones Akal, S.A.. This book was released on 2013-03-15 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El periodo en que vivimos está marcado por encuentros culturales de todo tipo, encuentros cada vez más frecuentes e intensos. Sin embargo, reaccionamos ante ello; es imposible ignorar la tendencia hacia la mezcla y la hibridación: del judaísmo Zen a la comida occidental con soja, las religiones New Age, el kung fu nigeriano, las películas de Bollywood o la música reggae o raï. Hay quien celebra estos fenómenos, mientras que otros los temen o los condenan. No es de extrañar, pues, que teóricos culturales como Homi Bhabha, Stuart Hall, Paul Gilroy o Ien Ang se hayan ocupado de este tema en sus trabajos e investigaciones y hayan tratado de analizar y comprender estos complejos desarrollos, o que una gran variedad de disciplinas dedique más atención a las obras de estos teóricos y los procesos de encuentro, contacto, interacción, intercambio o hibridación cultural. En este conciso y brillante ensayo, el celebérrimo historiador Peter Burke examina estos fascinantes y controvertidos fenómenos culturales, hilando teorías, prácticas, procesos y acontecimientos de una manera amena y vibrante. La presente edición cuenta, además, con un estudio preliminar sobre la obra de Peter Burke, a cargo de María José del Río Barredo, especialista en historia cultural.

Download or read book World Anthropologies written by Gustavo Lins Ribeiro and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-07-13 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since its inception, anthropology's authority has been based on the assumption that it is a unified discipline emanating from the West. In an age of heightened globalization, anthropologists have failed to discuss consistently the current status of their practice and its mutations across the globe. World Anthropologies is the first book to provoke this conversation from various regions of the world in order to assess the diversity of relations between regional or national anthropologies and a contested, power-laden Western discourse. Can a planetary anthropology cope with both the 'provincial cosmopolitanism' of alternative anthropologies and the 'metropolitan provincialism' of hegemonic schools? How might the resulting 'world anthropologies' challenge the current panorama in which certain allegedly national anthropological traditions have more paradigmatic weight - and hence more power - than others? Critically examining the international dissemination of anthropology within and across national power fields, contributors address these questions and provide the outline for a veritable world anthropologies project.

Download or read book Epistemologies of the South written by Boaventura de Sousa Santos and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-11-17 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the concept of 'cognitive injustice': the failure to recognise the different ways of knowing by which people across the globe run their lives and provide meaning to their existence. Boaventura de Sousa Santos shows why global social justice is not possible without global cognitive justice. Santos argues that Western domination has profoundly marginalised knowledge and wisdom that had been in existence in the global South. She contends that today it is imperative to recover and valorize the epistemological diversity of the world. Epistemologies of the South outlines a new kind of bottom-up cosmopolitanism, in which conviviality, solidarity and life triumph against the logic of market-ridden greed and individualism.

Download or read book The Film Archipelago written by Antonio Gómez and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2021-12-16 with total page 466 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do the islands and archipelagos of the New World figure in Latin American cinema? Comprising 15 essays and a critical introduction, The Film Archipelago: Islands in Latin American Cinema addresses this question by examining a series of intersections between insular spaces and filmmaking in Latin America. The volume brings together international scholars and filmmakers to consider a diverse corpus of films about islands, films that take place on islands, films produced in islands, and films that problematise islands. The book explores a diverse range of films that extend from the Chilean documentaries of Patricio Guzmán to work on the Malvinas/Falkland Islands, and films by Argentine directors Gustavo Fontán and Lucrecia Martel. Chapters focus on Rapa Nui (Easter Island), the Mexican Islas Marías, and the Panamanian Caribbean; on ecocritical, environmental and film historical aspects of Brazilian and Argentine river islands; and on Cuban, Guadeloupean, Haitian, and Puerto Rican contexts. The Film Archipelago argues that the islands and archipelagos of Latin American cinema constitute a critically interesting, analytically complex, and historically suggestive angle to explore issues of marginality and peripherality, remoteness and isolation, and fragility and dependency. As a whole, the collection demonstrates to what extent the combined insular and archipelagic lens can re-frame and re-figure both longstanding and recent discussions on the spaces of Latin American cinema.
