Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La reducción notable del flujo de inmigrantes a partir de 2009, en un contexto de crisis y estancamiento económico, ha hecho que se reduzca notablemente la atención sobre el proceso migratorio que venían prestando la opinión pública, la clase política y los medios de comunicación. Este paso de la cuestión migratoria a un plano más discreto puede tener un efecto positivo si permite un debate más sosegado y ayuda a encauzar el proceso de toma de decisiones por los canales de la racionalidad, del respeto de los derechos humanos y de la solidaridad. Existe el riesgo, sin embargo, de pensar, confundiendo las encuestas de opinión con las necesidades de la sociedad, que la gestión del proceso migratorio ha dejado de ser una prioridad para la cohesión social. Muy al contrario, una vez asentado en España un volumen significativo de población inmigrante, fruto del intenso flujo migratorio registrado en la segunda mitad de los años 90 y durante la práctica totalidad de la pasada década, la evolución de este grupo de población, en el ámbito laboral, político y social, se ha convertido en un elemento clave para la configuración y las transformaciones de la estructura social, de los procesos de desigualdad y, por tanto, de la cohesión social del conjunto del país. El énfasis en el debate sobre la inmigración debe trasladarse de la gestión de los flujos hacia las políticas de integración social. Y la lucha contra todo tipo de discriminaciones tiene aquí una relevancia sustancial, máxime en un contexto de reducción de los recursos y de las oportunidades: si hay menos para repartir, el reparto debería ser más justo. Las administraciones públicas han venido desarrollando determinadas medidas de lucha contra la discriminación y de promoción de la igualdad de trato. Conviene ahora conocer en profundidad las implicaciones de estas medidas y conviene también empezar a plantear seriamente el debate sobre su eficacia y sobre la forma en la que podría mejorarse en el futuro. Con el ánimo de mantener la atención sobre esta problemática y sobre la urgente necesidad de abordarla, el presente número de Documentación Social plantea una serie de artículos que abordan el análisis de las actitudes y de las prácticas discriminatorias en distintos órdenes de la vida social, así como de las políticas generales y de las medidas concretas que se han puesto en marcha para combatirlas. Tanto desde la perspectiva macro como desde las experiencias más concretas hemos querido mostrar cómo la lucha contra la discriminación étnica de la población inmigrante debe ir de la mano de un proceso de reconocimiento de la diversidad cultural por un lado y de promoción de las condiciones sociales orientadas a la plena integración social por el otro.
Download or read book Discourses on Immigration in Times of Economic Crisis written by Maria Martinez Lirola and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2014-08-11 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The press is generally regarded as a reliable source of information, albeit with the capacity to propagate ideologies, social conceptions and beliefs. In this regard, it seems evident that the social role of the press can by no means be underestimated: it can influence our knowledge, values and social codes through linguistic and other semiotic means, sometimes hidden under a euphemistic lexical disguise holding up a liberal and apparently respectful discourse. Discourses on Immigration in Times of Economic Crisis examines the discursive and visual elements that are involved in reproducing ethnic and racial prejudices in contemporary press discourse. Our present reality is characterised by a moment of economic crisis, and it is a contention of the book that this affects the treatment of immigration, particularly in the press, which tends to refer to immigrants as a people-problem of some description or another. Therefore, the purpose of this book is to describe major aspects of discourse related to immigration within the present social context of the economic crisis.
Download or read book Derechos humanos inmigrantes en situaci n irregular y Uni n Europea written by Ángel G. Chueca Sancho and published by Lex Nova. This book was released on 2010 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En este libro, en 15 capítulos, en español, inglés y francés, se abordan temas como la inmigración irregular en el ámbito mediterráneo, la participación de las Organizaciones Internacionales en la gestión de la inmigración irregular, los Derechos Humanos de los inmigrantes en situación irregular, los inmigrantes en situación irregular en el Derecho Español e inmigración irregular y derecho de asilo.En la realidad soplan malos vientos para los inmigrantes, en general, y especialmente para aquellos que se hallan en situación irregular, sea originaria o sobrevenida. Así lo prueban la Directiva de retorno (con toda justicia calificada como «Directiva de la vergüenza») y la Directiva de sanción a los empleadores de personas en situación irregular{ y también puede decirse que existe un empeoramiento de ciertas legislaciones estatales, como la italiana, la francesa, etc. Frecuentemente se utiliza un peligroso mito para referirse a estas personas: son calificadas como «ilegales», a pesar de que ninguna persona lo es. El mito esconde importantes dosis de xenofobia y de criminalización de personas que simplemente han atravesado irregularmente una frontera o se hallan con una documentación caducada.El respeto de los Derechos Humanos de las personas en situación irregular no siempre se produce en nuestros democráticos Estados de Derecho{ en ellos surge con demasiada frecuencia el cinismo del doble o triple lenguaje. El respeto efectivo de los Derechos Humanos (universales, indivisibles, interdependientes, inalienables e irrenunciables) interesa a todos y a todas. Cuando algún grupo de personas sufre su violación, otras personas (en esta hipótesis, muchos ciudadanos de la Unión) no se dan cuenta de que se cuestiona, sufre y peligra la misma esencia de la democracia.
Download or read book Mobilizing Romani Ethnicity written by Anna Mirga-Kruszelnicka and published by Central European University Press. This book was released on 2022-08-02 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Roma issue is generally treated as a European matter. Indeed, the Roma are the largest European minority—their presence outside of Europe is a result of various waves of migration over the past four hundred years. Likewise, the stereotypes associated with the Roma—the problematized, stigmatized status of a “Gypsy” as well as the historical and contemporary manifestations of antigypsyism—are also of European origin. This book claims, however, that the perception of Roma being strictly a European issue is flawed, and that re-connecting the Roma issue globally represents an important learning experience and an added value. The book offers a critical exploration of Romani political activism in Colombia and Argentina, and compares it to that in Spain, narrated from the intimate perspective of Romani actors themselves. By outlining parallel lineages of Romani activism in three countries and on two continents, the author arrives at broad conclusions regarding the nature of ethnic mobilization. Mirga-Kruszelnicka proposes a new synergetic conceptualization of this multidirectional concept as an interplay between political opportunities, mobilizing structures, and frames of identity. Contributing to the vivid debate about the relationship between the researcher and the researched, the book also includes an original discussion of the positionality of scholars of Romani background.
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.

Download or read book Te Toca written by Mark Allinson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-02-04 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ""Languages are best learned when real-world information becomes the focus of students' activities. In this respect, !Te Toca! definitely encourages advanced learners to focus on exchanging real-life information about the world around them. Moreover, since the topics and issues presented in the book are controversial in nature, they seem especially appealing to college students."" Dr Maria Jesus Amores, University of West Virginia !Te Toca! is a thoroughly innovative approach to advanced language learning. Imaginative, exciting and fun, it uses language simulations to take students into a virtual Spanish-speaking world where they adopt a new Spanish or Latin-American identity. Creating a learning environment in which they need to use Spanish to solve a problem or engage in debate, the language simulations draw and expand on students' linguistic, communication, and information-gathering skills. Covering a variety of engaging topics, the simulations literally put the students centre-stage, requiring them to think on their feet and speak exclusively in Spanish. The topics revolve around contentious issues and each chapter includes a simulation exercise with all its associated documents, as well as a lead text, comprehension questions, a guide to relevant points of functional grammar, associated exercises, a glossary of terms, and suggestions for written work.

Gonzalez's story recounts the lives of his parents and their fellow immigrants who settled in Harrison County, West Virginia in the early twentieth century. According to Suronda Gonzalez (no relation to the author) who wrote the preface, Pinnick Kinnick Hill "is a historical treasure that enriches understandings of Appalachian, U.S., and Spanish history." And from the Foreword by Patrick W. Conner, "The book is partly a memoir, partly a history, and partly a novel, all combined in a sometimes heartwarming and sometimes bittersweet celebration of how one small Spanish community survived and then prospered in the ethnic caldron that was America."

This book was released on 2021-11-27 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a collection of self-selected papers presented at The Migration Conference 2021 London. COVID-19 pandemic and ongoing restrictions and difficulties in international travel forced us to run the TMC online for a second time. It is a new and improving experience for most of us and there is strong hints that the conference will continue in hybrid form in the near future. As usual we have invited participants to submit 2000 words papers for the proceedings book and this volume brings you these papers. Topics covered in the volume includes gender, education, mass movements, refugees, religion, identity, migration policy, culture, diplomacy, remittances, climate, water, environment and pretty much everything about migration. Most of the papers are in English, but there are some in French, Spanish and Turkish too. This is a great book for those who want short accounts on all aspects of migration and refugees.
