Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cette recherche porte sur les enfants de la rue à Kinshasa. Nous avons choisi d'étudier les rapports des enfants des rues aux institutions d'accueil à travers leurs pratiques d'entrées et de sorties de ces institutions. Une première phase de terrain a été menée à Kinshasa au sein de quatre institutions d'accueil, nous avons observé les pratiques de ces quatre institutions et interrogé des jeunes ayant recours à ces va-et-vient. Dans un second temps, le terrain a porté sur l'une de ces institutions. Deux notions ont constitué l'axe central de cette observation participante : celle de la reconnaissance et celle de l'autonomisation. En invitant les enfants à construire les conduites, les pratiques, et les stratégies qui leur paraissent les mieux adaptées à leurs besoins, l'institution intègre ces deux dimensions dans les modalités de réinsertion sociale qu'elle propose. Les pratiques de responsabilités partagées, telles que la prise en charge des plus jeunes par les plus âgés, la participation des enfants à l'élaboration du règlement intérieur, illustrent la mise en œuvre de cette orientation de l'institution. Toutefois, certains enfants considèrent que l'institution ne leur accorde pas suffisamment d'autonomie, ni de reconnaissance. Certains leaders dans la rue ne sont pas reconnus comme tels. Des décisions sont imposées aux enfants, sans les consulter et sans tenir compte de leur expérience. Certains enfants se détournent alors de l'institution pour retourner dans la rue. Cette recherche montre que les attentes de certains enfants insuffisamment prises en compte sont une des causes de leur insatisfaction qui conduit à leur mobilité.

This book was released on 2021-09-02 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ce livre analyse les politiques publiques de réinsertion sociale des enfants en situation difficile en République Démocratique du Congo, particulièrement à Kinshasa. L'appréhension du phénomène enfants en situation difficile passe par la maîtrise de tous les contours du dysfonctionnement de la société congolaise. L'action publique en réponse à ce phénomène existe, mais elle reste inefficace. Cela trouve son explication dans la fragmentation des initiatives et le manque de coordination des acteurs. La solution reste le partenariat public-privé. D'où, la nécessité d'inscrire cette action publique dans les paradigmes de l'inculturation et de l'éducation prénatale naturelle, qui sont le socle d'une action collective efficace entre partenaires.

Download or read book In Defiance of Painting written by Christine Poggi and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 1992-01-01 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The invention of collage by Picasso and Braque in 1912 proved to be a dramatic turning point in the development of Cubism and Futurism and ultimately one of the most significant innovations in twentieth-century art. Collage has traditionally been viewed as a new expression of modernism, one allied with modernism's search for purity of means, anti-illusionism, unity, and autonomy of form. This book - the first comprehensive study of collage and its relation to modernism - challenges this view. Christine Poggi argues that collage did not become a new language of modernism but a new language with which to critique modernism. She focuses on the ways Cubist collage - and the Futurist multimedia work that was inspired by it - undermined prevailing notions of material and stylistic unity, subverted the role of the frame and pictorial ground, and brought the languages of high and low culture into a new relationship of exchange.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work looks at the surge of Bretons who left their homes in Western France in the latter half of the 19th century to live and work in Paris.

Download or read book Blue White Red written by Alain Mabanckou and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2013-02-21 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Mabanckou dazzles with technical dexterity and emotional depth” in his debut novel, winner of the Grand Prix Littéraire de l’Afrique Noire (Publishers Weekly, starred review). This tale of wild adventure reveals the dashed hopes of Africans living between worlds. When Moki returns to his village from France wearing designer clothes and affecting all the manners of a Frenchman, Massala-Massala, who lives the life of a humble peanut farmer after giving up his studies, begins to dream of following in Moki’s footsteps. Together, the two take wing for Paris, where Massala-Massala finds himself a part of an underworld of out-of-work undocumented immigrants. After a botched attempt to sell metro passes purchased with a stolen checkbook, he winds up in jail and is deported. Blue White Red is a novel of postcolonial Africa where young people born into poverty dream of making it big in the cities of their former colonial masters. Alain Mabanckou’s searing commentary on the lives of Africans in France is cut with the parody of African villagers who boast of a son in the country of Digol. Praise for Alain Mabanckou and Blue White Red “Mabanckou counts as one of the most successful voices of young African literature.” —Internationales Literaturfestival Berlin “The African Beckett.” —The Economist “Blue White Red stands at the beginning of the author’s remarkable and multifaceted career as a novelist, essayist and poet . . . this debut novel shows much of his style and substance in remarkable ways . . . Dundy’s translation is excellent.” —Africa Book Club “Mabanckou’s provocative novel probes the many facets of the ‘migration adventure.’” —Booklist
Download or read book Stages and Pathways of Drug Involvement written by Denise Bystryn Kandel and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2002-03-04 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: (Publisher-supplied data) This book represents the first systematic discussion of the Gateway Hypothesis, a developmental hypothesis formulated to model how adolescents initiate and progress in the use of various drugs. In the United States, this progression proceeds from the use of tobacco or alcohol to the use of marijuana and other illicit drugs. This volume presents a critical overview of what is currently known about the Gateway Hypothesis. The authors of the chapters explore the hypothesis from various perspectives ranging from developmental social psychology to prevention and intervention science, animal models, neurobiology and analytical methodology. This volume is original and unique in its purview, covering a broad view of the Gateway Hypothesis. The juxtaposition of epidemiological, intervention, animal and neurobiological studies represents a new stage in the evolution of drug research, in which epidemiology and biology inform one another in the understanding of drug abuse.

Download or read book Street Children and Homeless Youth written by Lewis Aptekar and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-18 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book deals with street children who live in the developing world, and homeless youth who are from the developed world. They are referred to as children in street situations (CSS) to show that the problem is both in the children and in the situation they face. The book examines several aspects of the children and their street situations, including the families of origin and the homes they leave, the children’s social life, and mental health. Other aspects are the problems of published demographics, the construction of public opinion about these children and the, often violent, reactions from authorities. The book then discusses current research on children in street situations, as well as programs and policies. The book ends with recommendations about programs, policies and research.

Download or read book Lifestyle Migration written by Michaela Benson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-05-06 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Relatively affluent individuals from various corners of the globe are increasingly choosing to migrate, spurred on by the promise of a better and more fulfilling way of life within their destination. Despite its increasing scale, migration academics have yet to consolidate and establish lifestyle migration as a subfield of theoretical enquiry, until now. This volume offers a dynamic and holistic analysis of contemporary lifestyle migrations, exploring the expectations and aspirations which inform and drive migration alongside the realities of life within the destination. It also recognizes the structural conditions (and constraints) which frame lifestyle migration, laying the groundwork for further intellectual enquiry. Through rich empirical case studies this volume addresses this important and increasingly common form of migration in a manner that will interest scholars of mobility, migration, lifestyle and culture across the social sciences.
