Download or read book Mapeo de conflictos written by Raúl Calvo Soler and published by Editorial GEDISA. This book was released on 2015-03-15 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En los últimos años hemos asistido a una ampliación de los conflictos; las aulas, los hospitales, la familia, el trabajo, la comunidad, entre otros, se han convertido en espacios donde, con asiduidad, aparecen este tipo de relaciones. Además esta diversificación ha venido acompañada de un aumento de la complejidad de los conflictos; cada vez resulta más difícil entender cómo se constituyen y desarrollan estos. Este libro presenta una propuesta de análisis; el Mapeo de conflictos. Se trata de mostrar al profesional una técnica que le permita, por un lado, diagnosticar cómo está construido el conflicto y, por el otro lado, establecer los posibles escenarios futuros en los que puede derivar la relación conflictual. La necesidad de procesos de exploración como un paso previo al diseño de estrategias de intervención queda puesta de manifiesto a lo largo de las páginas de este libro. El autor presenta, junto con una gran diversidad de ejemplos, un proceso de aplicación de la técnica a través del desarrollo de un único caso que es usado de manera transversal a lo largo de los diferentes capítulos.

Book Shifting Nicaraguan Mediascapes

Download or read book Shifting Nicaraguan Mediascapes written by Julie Cupples and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-12-09 with total page 91 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the mediated struggles for autonomy, land rights and social justice in a context of growing authoritarianism and persistent coloniality in Nicaragua. To do so, it draws on in-depth fieldwork, analysis of media texts, and decolonial and other cultural theories. There are two main threats to the authoritarian rule of the Nicaraguan government led by Daniel Ortega: the first is the Managua-based NGO and civil society sector led largely by educated dissident Sandinistas, and the second is the escalating struggle for autonomy and land rights being fought by Nicaragua’s indigenous and Afro-descended inhabitants on the country’s Caribbean coast. In order to confront these threats and, it seems, secure indefinite political tenure, the government engages in a set of centralizing and anti-democratic political strategies characterized by secrecy, institutional power grabs, highly suspect electoral practices, clientelistic anti-poverty programmes, and the control through purchase or co-optation of much of the nation's media. The social movements that threaten Ortega’s rule are however operating through dispersed and topological modalities of power and the creative use of emergent spaces for the circulation of counter-discourses and counter-narratives within a rapidly transforming media environment. The primary response to these mediated tactics is a politics of silence and a refusal to acknowledge or respond to the political claims made by social movements. In the current conjuncture, the authors identify a struggle for hegemony whose strategies and tactics include the citizenship-stripping activities of the state and the citizenship-claiming activities of black, indigenous and dissident actors and activists. This struggle plays out in part through the mediated circulation and counter-circulation of discourses and the infrastructural dynamics of media convergence.

  • Author : Robert A. Karl
  • Publisher : Univ of California Press
  • Release : 2017-03-28
  • ISBN : 0520293932
  • Pages : 338 pages

Download or read book Forgotten Peace written by Robert A. Karl and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2017-03-28 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Forgotten Peace examines Colombian society’s attempt to move beyond the Western Hemisphere’s worst mid-century conflict and shows how that effort molded notions of belonging and understandings of the past. Robert A. Karl reconstructs encounters between government officials, rural peoples, provincial elites, and urban intellectuals during a crucial conjuncture that saw reformist optimism transform into alienation. In addition to offering a sweeping reinterpretation of Colombian history—including the most detailed account of the origins of the FARC insurgency in any language—Karl provides a Colombian vantage on global processes of democratic transition, development, and memory formation in the 1950s and 1960s. Broad in scope, Forgotten Peace challenges contemporary theories of violence in Latin America.

Book Influences of the IEA Civic and Citizenship Education Studies

Download or read book Influences of the IEA Civic and Citizenship Education Studies written by Barbara Malak-Minkiewicz and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-05-26 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book identifies the multiple ways that IEA’s studies of civic and citizenship education have contributed to national and international educational discourse, research, policymaking, and practice. The IEA International Civic and Citizenship Education Study (ICCS), first conducted in 2009, was followed by a second cycle in 2016. The project was linked to the earlier IEA Civic Education Study (CIVED 1999, 2000). IEA’s ICCS remains the only large-scale international study dedicated to formal and informal civic and citizenship education in school. It continues to make substantial contributions to understanding the nature of the acquired civic knowledge, attitudes, and participatory skills. It also discusses in-depth how a wide range of countries prepare their young people for citizenship in changing political, social, and economic circumstances. The next cycle of ICCS is planned for 2022. In this book, more than 20 national representatives and international scholars from Europe, Latin America, Asia, and North America assess how the processes and findings of the 2009 and 2016 cycles of ICCS and CIVED 1999/2000 have been used to improve nations’ understanding of their students’ civic knowledge, beliefs, attitudes, current civic-related behaviors, and intentions for future participation in a comparative context. There are also chapters summarizing the secondary analysis of those studies’ results indicating their usefulness for educational improvement and reflecting on policy issues. The analyses and reflections in this book provide timely insight into international educational discourse, policy, practice, and research in an area of education that is becoming increasingly important for many societies.

Book The United States and the Armed Forces of Mexico  Central America and the Caribbean  2000 2014

This book was released on 2014-10-01 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tracing the U.S. government's efforts to shape the armed forces of Mexico, Central America and the Caribbean from 2000 to 2014, this narrative concentrates on the Army but also discusses Air Force and naval forces, including the Marines and the Coast Guard. Police forces in those regions are also covered. Mexico's ongoing struggle with drug cartels is discussed extensively. Venezuela and Cuba receive considerable attention. This study is the first to examine in detail the armed forces of countries such as the Dominican Republic and Jamaica. Sections on Haiti and Panama, countries supposedly without armies, reveal the decisive role the U.S. has played in determining their military policies. The text weaves the histories of these armed forces into the broader context of the politics, economics and international relations in the region. A clear and brief introduction to the relations of Mexico, Central America and the Caribbean with the United States is provided.

Book Social Theory and the Politics of Higher Education

Download or read book Social Theory and the Politics of Higher Education written by Mark Murphy and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2020-12-10 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social Theory and the Politics of Higher Education brings together an international group of scholars who shine a theoretical light on the politics of academic life and higher education. The book covers three key areas: 1) Institutional governance, with a specific focus on issues such as measurement, surveillance, accountability, regulation, performance and institutional reputation. 2) Academic work, covering areas such as the changing nature of academic labour, neoliberalism and academic identity, and the role of gender and gender studies in university life. 3) Student experience, which includes case studies of student politics and protest, the impact of graduate debt and changing student identities. The editors and chapter authors explore these topics through a theoretical lens, using the ideas of Michel Foucault, Niklas Luhmann, Barbara Adams, Donna Massey, Margaret Archer, Jürgen Habermas, Pierre Bourdieu, Hartmut Rosa, Norbert Elias and Donna Haraway, among others. The case studies, from Africa, Europe, Australia and South America, draw on a wide range of research approaches, and each chapter includes a set of critical reflections on how social theory and research methodology can work in tandem.

Book Resisting Extractivism

    Book Details:
  • Author : Michael Wilson Becerril
  • Publisher : Vanderbilt University Press
  • Release : 2021-02-15
  • ISBN : 0826501710
  • Pages : 280 pages

Download or read book Resisting Extractivism written by Michael Wilson Becerril and published by Vanderbilt University Press. This book was released on 2021-02-15 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ACRL's Choice Outstanding Academic Title of 2021 Peru is classified as one of the deadliest countries in the world for environmental defenders, where activists face many forms of violence. Through an ethnographic and systematic comparison of four gold-mining conflicts in Peru, Resisting Extractivism presents a vivid account of subtle and routine forms of violence, analyzing how meaning-making practices render certain types of damage and suffering noticeable while occluding others. The book thus builds a theory of violence from the ground up—how it is framed, how it impacts people’s lived experiences, and how it can be confronted. By excavating how the everyday interactions that underlie conflicts are discursively concealed and highlighted, this study assists in the prevention and transformation of violence over resource extraction in Latin America. The book draws on a controlled, qualitative comparison of four case studies, extensive ethnographic research conducted over fourteen months of fieldwork, analysis of over nine hundred archives and documents, and unprecedented access to more than 250 semi-structured interviews with key actors across industry, the state, civil society, and the media. Michael Wilson Becerril identifies, traces, and compares these dynamics to explain how similar cases can lead to contrasting outcomes—insights that may be usefully applied in other contexts to save lives and build better futures.

Book Negociaciones y Mediaci  n

Download or read book Negociaciones y Mediaci n written by Luis Cueto Preciado and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2012-05-07 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ¿Qué fue primero, el huevo o la gallina? Actualmente la mediación ya comienza a aparecer como un procedimiento formal de resolución de conflictos en la sociedad mexicana; sin embargo, para poder establecerla como un proceso efectivo y habitual para resolver disputas, debe haber educación formal para comunicar efectivamente a la sociedad de la existencia y bondades del proceso. Este libro combina teorías y bibliografía en diferentes áreas académicas y profesionales, como son la psicología, la ley, y diferentes estudios culturales; y añadiendo mis propios análisis, experiencias interpretaciones, ideas, y comentarios ofreciendo al lector una base para formar su propio criterio. Por otro lado, es importante decir que este libro puede servir también como un texto académico, un manual de consulta, e incluso un libro de ayuda o superación personal por lo que lo estructuré en con un vocabulario claro y sencillo evitando, en la medida de lo posible, los tecnicismos jurídicos y psicológicos.

Book Global Media Coverage of the Palestinian Israeli Conflict

Download or read book Global Media Coverage of the Palestinian Israeli Conflict written by Noureddine Miladi and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2023-07-13 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The attempts to evict Palestinian residents of Sheikh Jarrah in May 2021 caught the attention of the world. While this small Palestinian neighbourhood in East Jerusalem had long been central to the Israel-Palestinian conflict, the planned expulsions pushed the situation back into the spotlight. This book discusses the complexity of the media war that took place at the same time. Across 20 chapters, it compares Israeli, Western, Palestinian and Arab media to understand how different narratives were discussed, supported and challenged. In particular, the book captures how social media became a site of online activism and alternative war narratives. The volume is unique in focusing on a specific event from many different perspectives and with material from different countries and media platforms. Case studies include the Spanish press; the African press; the BBC; Al-Jazeera English; TRT World Television; and digital media such as TikTok and Facebook, as well as the impact of social media activism. In doing so, the book also comments on the extent that citizen journalists challenge the propaganda war.

Book excerpt: Miles de millones de seres humanos alrededor del mundo, han hablado de estar esperando la segunda venida de Cristo Jesus desde hace siglos y milenios. Para ello, han ideado diferentes conceptos de como el Espiritu Santo los pueda hailitar para poder estar preparados y aprobados para cuando dicho evento tome lugar. Muchos han ignorado dichos conceptos, otros los han aceptado. Por alguna razon desconocida para ellos, e inclusive para nosotros hoy; se ha pasado por alto el magno evento que precede a dicha segunda venida. Ese hecho es: Estar preparados para el Inminente Cierre del Tiempo de Gracia! Si fue aprobado antes de dicho cierre, la segunda venida sera para usted, una maravillosa experiencia. Por eso, el mismo Dios en su misericordia a punto de ser retirada, al ver a la humanidad cristiana y a la no cristiana de hoy, errando el camino y hundida en tanta confusion al respecto; ha querido brindar un mapa unico, con puntos claves y con bases simples, solidas y precisas a traves de este libro. Mapa que nos abrira los ojos a una realidad sorprendente en la cual quieras o no, te veras envuelto. Junto al Espiritu Santo;esta sierva desea compartir ese hallazgo con usted, mi querido lector. Porque no queremos que el tiempo de gracia termine y pierda la vida eterna con Jesus, por seguir en la ignorancia. El Gobierno Celestial (Dios), quiere orientarlos correctamente. El diablo quiere confundirlos mediante tantos sistemas y filosofias religiosas. Ante estos dos Poderes, Solo Usted Tiene la Decision Final! Por favor, no ignore las advertencias que con tanto amor y por ultima vez Cristo Jesus les envia a traves de las paginas de este libro.

  • Author : Sara Cobb
  • Publisher : Editorial GEDISA
  • Release : 2016-11-15
  • ISBN : 8416572038
  • Pages : 393 pages

Download or read book Hablando de violencia written by Sara Cobb and published by Editorial GEDISA. This book was released on 2016-11-15 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este libro constituye una valiosa aportación para la investigación y la práctica sobre análisis y resolución de conflictos desde una perspectiva narrativa. Se basa en tres ideas fundamentales: la teoría narrativa crítica, la teoría de la transformación narrativa y la ética estética. El objetivo que la autora propone, en un proceso de la resolución de conflictos, es el paso desde una narrativa conflictiva (conflict story) hacia una historia mejor construida (better-formed story), a través de la consecución de momentos críticos (critical moments) y giros (turning points), tomando en cuenta la propia subjetividad y el testimonio de sufrimiento del Otro, así como dándoles voz y teniendo en cuenta el espacio donde se haga el proceso. Por lo tanto, el libro de Sara Cobb proporciona bases filosóficas sólidas para la resolución de conflictos a nivel local, nacional e internacional. Retoma autores como: Arendt, Levinas, Rancière, Foucault, Ricoeur, Lyotard y Derrida, entre otros.
