Book excerpt: El colectivo femenino está considerado como uno de los más vulnerables, junto con los niños y ancianos, debido a su condición física, factores sociales, etc., por lo tanto son víctimas potenciales de agresiones y de todo tipo de abusos. La violencia contra las mujeres es una clara expresión de la desigualdad entre hombres y mujeres, siendo ésta, un grave problema para la sociedad. Los compromisos diarios de las mujeres en la actualidad hacen que frecuentemente se vean solas ante situaciones de peligro potencial, y también son numerosas las ocasiones en las que una mujer puede ser molestada o agredida: al regresar tarde a casa, en un aparcamiento subterráneo, caminando por una calle desierta, en la parada del autobús, en el ascensor, al sacar dinero del cajero, etc. Es importante, que las mujeres conozcan las circunstancias en que se producen estas agresiones, que estrategias pueden emplear para evitarlas y que deben hacer cuando estas ya se han producido. Este libro trata de suponer un instrumento de trabajo y un medio con el que tratar de adquirir nuevos conocimientos, tácticas y tecnicas útiles para salvaguardar su libertad cuando ésta se ve amenazad por situaciones, eventos o personas imprevisibles. Dentro de este libro los objetivos: Aprender una serie de tecnicas de defensa personal sencillas y súper contundentes encaminadas a preservar la integridad física, ante agresiones violentas e ilícitas contra una persona. Formación para la mujer en materia de autoprotección Aumentar la autoestima y confianza de la mujer eliminando esos miedos Asesorar a la mujer en temas como la legítima defensa, la violencia de género, agresiones sexuales, como son y cómo las prefieren los violadores, etc. Todo ello elaborando un protocolo de prevención dirigido a la mujer. Existen una serie de reglas de prevención que hay que tener en cuenta para evitar cualquier tipo de peligro, acompañadas de unas medidas de seguridad. Conocer estas técnicas no quiere decir que se vuelvan mujeres violentas o agresivas, sino que adquieren los conocimientos y tácticas necesarias para afrontar y reaccionar ante cualquier agresión, pero ante todo, ser capaces de prevenir cualquier agresión, y de prevenir una situación de peligro, ya que el estudio de la defensa personal comienza con la prevención. La prevención es el mejor medio para garantizarnos una seguridad integral. El agresor es un depredador que elige su presa, la prevención permite que no seamos una presa fácil.

Download or read book China s Digital Expansion in the Global South written by Richard Heeks and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-12-16 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For those wanting to understand implications for the Global South of China’s emergence as a digital superpower, this book analyses China’s digital impact in Latin America, North Africa and Asia, covering issues including platforms, e-commerce, technology transfer and digital surveillance. It also incorporates a major literature review that outlines a six-part future research agenda. At the intersection of China’s growing global presence and growing digital power lies its digital expansion in the low- and middle-income countries of the Global South. Worth billions of USD annually in trade and investment, and having a significant impact on these countries’ social and economic development, this phenomenon has been relatively ignored by researchers to date. This major new volume provides significant new insights that help advance our knowledge of this important topic. A systematic review of literature identifies key issues within the field and outlines a six-part future research agenda. Those issues are then explored in greater depth: reviewing the relationship between activities of Chinese platform firms, the state’s Belt and Road Initiative, and local context in the Global South; investigating the activities of Alibaba as it has sought to grow its operations in Mexico; analysing whether two Chinese tech giants – Huawei and ZTE – are contributing to an upgrading of local technological capabilities in Algeria and Egypt; and digging behind portrayals of China exporting “digital authoritarianism” to understand the realities of surveillance system exports to countries in Latin America. Overall, the book fills important gaps in our understanding of China’s digital expansion in the Global South, and challenges preconceptions and one-sided views of this major recent activity. It was originally published as a special issue of The Information Society.

Download or read book Power in the International Investment Framework written by Maria A. Gwynn and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-07-26 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a unique analysis of bilateral investment treaties (BITs). By developing a new, power-focused paradigm for understanding the international investment framework, the author illustrates why there was no paradoxical behaviour when developing countries agreed to the BIT regime, and what has spurred their reaction against it now. She also examines how attempts to regulate investment at a multilateral level have failed, and why the rules of the framework are evolving. Inspired by the work of Susan Strange, Gwynn fills a significant lacuna in our understanding of these issues by demonstrating how power determines the actions of all those involved. This holistic reinterpretation of international investment focuses in particular on Latin America, but has wider implications for the negotiation of new treaties, including such controversial provisions as the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership. It will appeal to lawyers, economists, political scientists and scholars of Latin America.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Initially this book was intended to raise awareness among health and public health professionals about what is known about the evolving understanding of the multifaceted and toxic nature of bullying, as a psychosocial stressor, linked to a wide range of morbidity and prevalent across social settings, along the lifespan and around the world. In this context this book was primarily aimed at fostering the role of health and public health practitioners in developing strategies for the prevention and detection of bullying and treatment of its associated health risks. The recognition, during the process of developing this book, that bullying is a type of maltreatment which may be associated with other forms of victimization, led me to go beyond the notion of bullying and explore the spectrum of maltreatment"--

Download or read book The Time of the Generals written by Frederick M. Nunn and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 1992-01-01 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The quarter century from 1964 to 1989 was the "time of the generals," the most clearly defined era of military rule and influence in the history of Latin America. The effects of this rule were most evident in Argentina, Brazil, Peru, and Chile, where French- and German-style military professionalism developed into professional militarism. Frederick M. Nunn shows that the mentality of Latin American generals is typical of a worldwide military ethos but that its application is unique in the context of individual countries. In detailing the pervasiveness of this ethos worldwide, Nunn enables a better understanding of the willingness of Latin American military leaders to intervene in government, and of their activities once in power.
