Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El estudio de los procesos de exclusión permite identificar los procesos de desigualdad social que los originan. Entre estos procesos están las diferencias de clase social, pero también otras desigualdades profundamente enraizadas en nuestra sociedad, como la desigualdad de género, la discriminación étnica, la desventaja de las personas con discapacidad y las diferencias de oportunidades de los territorios.Como se señalaba en el VIII Informe sobre Exclusión y Desarrollo Social de la Fundación FOESSA, en esta fase de recuperación que vivíamos hasta la aparición de la pandemia de la COVID-19, la diversidad territorial de la exclusión nos lleva a enfatizar la importancia de los distintos modelos de integración que coexisten en España, y la fuerte diversidad territorial en la que se registran distintas capacidades de desarrollo económico y social.El objetivo de este documento es analizar el fenómeno de la exclusión social desde la perspectiva territorial, ofreciendo una aproximación multidimensional tanto del conjunto de España como de sus territorios.

Download or read book Riesgo de exclusi n y pol ticas sociales auton micas en Espa a written by and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 778 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Los efectos sociales de las políticas de austeridad llevadas a cabo en España durante el periodo de crisis ofrecen un balance regresivo en los niveles de desigualdad y exclusión social. Estos desequilibrios son fruto, no solo de los recortes recientes, sino más bien del escaso avance de determinadas políticas; sobre todo, de las que deben combatir la exclusión y de las que podrían frenar la progresiva precariedad en el empleo. Desde una perspectiva territorial, las repercusiones sociales de la crisis han sido muy dispares, erosionando la cohesión social. La distinta evolución regional deviene de las diferentes posiciones de partida previas a la crisis, aunque también de las diversas respuestas ofrecidas por parte de las administraciones nacional y regional. Del análisis de ambos modelos sociales complementarios se ocupa esta obra, ofreciendo una visión de las repercusiones sociales de la crisis en distintos ámbitos (ingresos, empleo, educación, vivienda, etc.) y evaluando las diferentes respuestas institucionales, a través del nivel de gasto social y el compromiso documental en la protección social (normas, planes, ayudas, etc.) durante el período 2008-2017. Este trabajo establece la necesidad de actuar para promover una mayor cohesión territorial, mediante la ampliación del marco normativo de protección social, la revisión de la financiación regional o la mejora de la gestión de recursos, entre otros factores.

Download or read book Federalism and Social Policy written by Scott L Greer and published by University of Michigan Press. This book was released on 2019-05-24 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Federalism and Social Policy focuses on the crucial question: Is a strong and egalitarian welfare state compatible with federalism? In this carefully curated collection, Scott L. Greer, Heather Elliott, and the contributors explore the relationship between decentralization and the welfare state to determine whether or not decentralization has negative consequences for welfare. The contributors examine a variety of federal countries, including Spain, Canada, and the United Kingdom, asking four key questions related to decentralization: (1) Are there regional welfare states (such as Scotland, Minnesota, etc.)? (2) How much variation is there in the structures of federal welfare states? (3) Is federalism bad for welfare? (4) Does austerity recentralize or decentralize welfare states? By focusing on money and policy instead of law and constitutional politics, the volume shows that federalism shapes regional governments and policies even when decentralization exists.

Download or read book Sustainable Communities and Urban Housing written by Montserrat Pareja-Eastaway and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-12-08 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the start of the twenty-first century, urban communities have faced increasing challenges in housing affordability, with environmental issues causing additional concern. It is clear that changes to urban housing are needed to enhance the resilience of cities and improve the economic, social and physical well-being of residents. This book provides a comparative cross-national perspective on urban housing and sustainability in Europe, exploring the key barriers and drivers associated with sustainable urban development and community regeneration. Country-specific chapters allow for easy comparison, with each summarizing how sustainable housing operates in the country in question, before going on to discuss the key barriers and drivers at play. This book brings a sustainability perspective to the comparative housing literature which frequently fails to integrate the social, economic and environmental pillars of sustainability. The book outlines many of the changes that professionals and residents will need to make to their practices and cultures in order to enhance housing resilience. Students, researchers and professionals with an interest in sustainable housing creation and regeneration will find this book an invaluable reference.

Download or read book Inclusion and Exclusion in Europe written by Olena Fedyuk and published by ECPR Press. This book was released on 2018-03-02 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent decades have seen the EU grappling with a major struggle between the securitization of its external borders and demand for exploitable and disposable cheap workforce in various sectors. As a result, the EU has multiplied its borders by pushing them both outwards and inwards, and the distinction between migrants' status as regular and irregular, legal and illegal, citizen and non-citizen, has been continuously portrayed as black and white. This produces and sustains an analytical, political and practical divide that often obscures commonalities in workers' dispossession and is an obstacle to unified struggles to secure workers' rights. This volume moves beyond a perspective of migrants' exclusion and inclusion as solely a product of migration processes. It contextualizes migration in the larger transformations of the local, national and transnational labour markets and relations that point to the ongoing precarization of working lives. These processes of inclusion are methodologically approached through exclusion at macro, micro and meso levels. This positions the ethnographically documented experiences of immigrant labourers in the challenges of contemporary labour and migratory regimes, and traces new forms of collective response and contestation emerging in these reconfiguring contexts.

Download or read book The Mosque Conflict in Catalonia written by Martin Lundsteen and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2022-10-03 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Mosque Conflict in Catalonia: Space, Culture, and Capitalism, Martin Lundsteen examines two paradigms around mosque conflicts—one of an analytical nature and the other of a political-technical nature. Lundsteen argues that both paradigms interpret conflicts culturally, as originating primarily in the symbolic realm. Though racism and xenophobia are certainly at the core of the issue, Lundsteen shows through the study of the conflict surrounding the mosque project in Premià de Mar (Barcelona) that other dimensions of utmost importance lurk behind these interpretations. This book constitutes an anthropological approach to the intersection of local-global processes of contemporary capitalism and emphasizes the understudied socio-spatial dimension of these conflicts.

Download or read book The Future of the Family written by Daniel Patrick Moynihan and published by Russell Sage Foundation. This book was released on 2004-10-06 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: High rates of divorce, single-parenthood, and nonmarital cohabitation are forcing Americans to reexamine their definition of family. This evolving social reality requires public policy to evolve as well. The Future of the Family brings together the top scholars of family policy—headlined by editors Lee Rainwater, Tim Smeeding, and, in his last published work, the late Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan—to take stock of the state of the family in the United States today and address the ways in which public policy affects the family and vice versa. The volume opens with an assessment of new forms of family, discussing how reduced family income and lower parental involvement can disadvantage children who grow up outside of two-parent households. The book then presents three vastly dissimilar recommendations—each representing a different segment of the political spectrum—for how family policy should adapt to these changes. Child psychologist Wade Horn argues the case of political conservatives that healthy two-parent families are the best way to raise children and therefore should be actively promoted by government initiatives. Conversely, economist Nancy Folbre argues that government's role lies not in prescribing family arrangements but rather in recognizing and fostering the importance of caregivers within all families, conventional or otherwise. Will Marshall and Isabel Sawhill borrow policy prescriptions from the left and the right, arguing for more initiatives that demand personal responsibility from parents, as well as for an increase in workplace flexibility and the establishment of universal preschool programs. The book follows with commentary by leading policy analysts Samuel Preston, Frank Furstenberg Jr., and Irwin Garfinkel on the merits of the conservative and liberal arguments. Each suggests that marriage promotion alone is not enough to ensure a happy, healthy, and prosperous future for American children who are caught up in the vortex of family change. They agree that government investments in children, however, can promote superior developmental outcomes and even potentially encourage traditional families by enlarging the pool of "marriageable" individuals for the next generation. No government action can reverse trends in family formation or return America to the historic nuclear family model. But understanding social change is an essential step in fashioning effective policy for today's families. With authoritative insight, The Future of the Family broadens and updates our knowledge of how public policy and demography shape one another.

Download or read book Urban Challenges in Spain and Portugal written by Nuria Benach and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-16 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contemporary cities in the Iberian Peninsula have gone through a period of dramatic changes during the last decade. A period of upward economic indicators and massive urbanization was followed by a tremendous financial crash in 2007 that sank Spanish and Portuguese societies into a profound crisis. That period of massive urbanization has been explained by several factors: the availability of financial capital that was speculatively invested in real-estate, a rather sympathetic land use regulation, and the real or perceived social mobility by most social groups which included housing acquisition enabled by unusual credit facilities. In this book we aim to show several different aspects of this process both in Portugal and Spanish cities, problematizing the economic and social consequences of such a model of urban and economic growth and also presenting some policy and governance outcomes that took place along the last decade. This book was published as a special issue of Urban Research and Practice.
