Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Raising the Living Dead is a new history of Puerto Rico's carceral rehabilitation system in the middle decades of the twentieth century that brings to life the interactions of incarcerated people, their wider social networks, and health care professionals. The book addresses key issues in the history of prisons and the histories of medicine and belief, including how prisoners' different racial, class, and cultural identities shaped their incarceration and how professionals living in a colonial society dealt with the challenge of rehabilitating prisoners for citizenship. The main idea of the book is that, in the region, multiple communities of care came together both inside and outside of prisons to imagine and imperfectly enact solution-oriented cultures of rehabilitation. Specifically, Alberto Ortiz Díaz argues that scientific and humanistic approaches to well-being were deliberately fused to raise the "living dead" (an expression that reemerged in the modern Caribbean to refer to prisoners). These reform groups sought to raise incarcerated people physically, mentally, socially, spiritually, and civically. The book is based on deep, original archival research into the Oso Blanco (White Bear) penitentiary in Puerto Rico, yet it situates its study within Puerto Rico's broader carceral archipelago and other Caribbean prisons. The agents of this history include not only physical health professionals, but also their mental health counterparts (psychologists and psychiatrists), social workers, spiritual and religious practitioners, and, of course, the prisoners and their families. By following all these groups and emphasizing the interpersonal exercise of power, Ortiz Díaz is able to tell a story that goes beyond structural and social control debates. Raising the Living Dead is not just about convicts, their immediate interlocutors, and their contexts, however, but about how together these open a window into the history of social uplift projects within the (neo)colonial societies of the Caribbean. There is no book like this in Caribbean historiography and few examine these themes in the larger literature on the history of prisons"--

Book excerpt: From Prague to Tennessee to Brazil, it's hard to find a consensus on what constitutes an average family. In today's world, the nuclear family is rarely the standard family structure, if it ever was. Families of a New World brings together an important collection of original works to examine our understanding of family around the world and how that understanding is shaped by state policy. Using examples from both historical and modern countries around the world, essays demonstrate not only how state policies shape what the family should look and act like, but also how governments have appropriated and regulated an approved ideal of the family to further their own agendas.

This book was released on 2014-01-14 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Si bien es cierto que el término consejería es utilizado en su mayor amplitud en el ámbito Comunitario, como un reconocimiento de las preocupaciones personales y sociales de los públicos externos; además de intentar buenas relaciones interpersonales docente de asesoría académica, capacitación en habilidades de estudio y lectura, exámenes y consulta con los administradores, investigación en consejería, consejería de grupo y el entrenamiento de estudiantes graduados en consejería. Son las funciones del servicio de tutorías las que se evidencian como claro ausentismo en el servicio que los docentes y consejeros de las Facultades de Humanidades, y/o los departamentos de orientación , psicología, y en algunos países de trabajo social, ofrecen a los estudiantes, ya que de acuerdo a los resultados los servicios de consejería se centran en el plano académico, como mera coincidencia sólo en el momento de la matriculación y no siempre, en el seguimiento que debemos desarrollar en el servicio educativo, comunitario y Psico- sociológico , permitiendo el seguimiento tanto individual como grupal del proceso de formación de los estudiantes. Así como el planteamiento y desarrollo de estrategias dirigidas a estimular habilidades y destrezas en todos los niveles, a orientar el desarrollo metodológico de las asignaturas e involucrar al estudiante universitario como parte fundamental y activo del proceso, con el fi n de garantizar una formación de la más alta calidad y por lo tanto el logro de un mayor nivel de conciencia, también hay una singular mezcla de términos y funciones entre lo que signifi ca consejería y tutoría, ya que algunos autores indican servicio de tutoría a una clara utilización de las funciones del servicio de consejería y viceversa.

Download or read book Experiencing Society and the Lived Welfare State written by Pertti Haapala and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-05-23 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book presents a new approach to the history of welfare state. By applying the concepts of experiencing society and the lived welfare state, the collection introduces theoretical, methodological and empirical insights for bridging the everyday life and institutional structures. The chapters analyze how the welfare state as a particular individual-society relationship has become an integral part of living in the modern society. With a long-term perspective, the chapters explore the experience of society which enabled the building and the resilience of a welfare state. As the welfare state is not a universal model of social development but historically unique in different contexts, the book broadens the focus from the Nordic countries to Southern Europe, colonial Asia and post-colonial South America. This collection is essential reading for scholars and students in the social sciences and history, as well as for policymakers and practitioners who face the contemporary and future challenges of the welfare states.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Battles for Belonging: Women Journalists, Political Culture, and the Paradoxes of Inclusion in Colombia, 1943-1970 examines women journalists who conceived of their publications as political interventions in mid-twentieth-century Colombia. These journalists committed to shaping justice and opportunity for women in society through writing while battling within the publishing realm to also transform and professionalize the practice of journalism in their own terms. By analyzing the contentious narratives of gender and class these women crafted as well as their conflicting efforts to maintain their stature in the printing and public worlds, it reveals the ongoing negotiations involved within their disputes over inclusion and democracy in a country still finding its way to equality, peace, and stability between the 1940s and 1960s. This book challenges oversimplified portrayals of struggles for power that either glorify or vilify these historical processes by erasing the complexity of the political and social actors involved in them. It stresses the importance of women, but not to the expense of a balanced critique of their historical reality, actions, and endeavors. This is a history of paradoxical political manifestations and a redefinition of power struggles as multidirectional, intersectional, non-monolithic historical processes, from the viewpoint of women.
