Download or read book The Environmental Public Health and Human Rights Impacts on Enhancing the Quality of Life of People with Intellectual Disability written by Laura Elisabet Gomez Sanchez and published by MDPI. This book was released on 2021-08-18 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Societal views on the human rights of persons with disabilities have significantly changed over the last four decades. However, while achieving equality, autonomy, nondiscrimination, participation, and inclusion should be a priority, abuses and violations of rights often occur in the most immediate environments of people with intellectual disability. This book is intended to provide greater visibility to people with intellectual disability, as full subjects of rights and improve their quality of life from a perspective of human rights, citizenship, and contextual analysis. We discuss the role of context, the provision of inclusive environments, and the improved health status at promoting quality of life-related personal outcomes and enhancing quality of life and equality for people with intellectual disability.

Download or read book La sexualidad en la discapacidad written by Jaime Tallis and published by Miño y Dávila. This book was released on 2020-07-15 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Nuestros hijos no pueden canalizar normalmente toda la energía hormonal que de golpe se instala en su cuerpo. Si la sociedad que los rodea tuviera mayor información sobre estos temas, no habría tanta estigmatización". Este comentario, extraído de la entrevista a una madre de un joven con discapacidad mental, resume la expectativa social sobre la sexualidad en este grupo de individuos: no existe, y cuando aparece, sorprende, atemoriza y es rechazada. A lo largo de esta obra se aborda en forma integral y comprensiva la sexualidad en los trastornos del desarrollo físico y mental, estableciendo un recorrido que abarca los aspectos biológicos, las implicancias de la problemática en la vida cotidiana de las familias y en el ámbito escolar, y finaliza con un intento por desarticular las falsas creencias en torno a ella. De tal modo, el presente libro propone una orientación a padres y docentes que responde a las grandes inquietudes que recoge nuestra práctica, en la que se evidencia la necesidad de mayores conocimientos y pautas de manejo para hijos y alumnos con discapacidades diversas.

Download or read book Abortion and Democracy written by Barbara Sutton and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-08-05 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abortion and Democracy offers critical analyses of abortion politics in Latin America’s Southern Cone, with lessons and insights of wider significance. Drawing on the region’s recent history of military dictatorship and democratic transition, this edited volume explores how abortion rights demands fit with current democratic agendas. With a focus on Argentina, Chile, and Uruguay, the book’s contributors delve into the complex reality of abortion through the examination of the discourses, strategies, successes, and challenges of abortion rights movements. Assembling a multiplicity of voices and experiences, the contributions illuminate key dimensions of abortion rights struggles: health aspects, litigation efforts, legislative debates, party politics, digital strategies, grassroots mobilization, coalition-building, affective and artistic components, and movement-countermovement dynamics. The book takes an approach that is sensitive to social inequalities and to the transnational aspects of abortion rights struggles in each country. It bridges different scales of analysis, from abortion experiences at the micro level of the clinic or the home to the macro sociopolitical and cultural forces that shape individual lives. This is an important intervention suitable for students and scholars of abortion politics, democracy in Latin America, gender and sexuality, and women’s rights.

Download or read book Growing up with Parents who have Learning Difficulties written by Tim Booth and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2005-08-10 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Growing up with Parents who have Learning Difficulties uses a life-story approach to present new evidence about how children from such families manage the transition to adulthood, and about the longer-term outcomes of such an upbringing. It offers a view of parental competence as a social attribute rather than an individual skill, assessing the implications for institutional policies and practices. The authors address the notion of children having to parent their disabled parents and argue for a shift in emphasis from protecting children to supporting families. This innovative book provides a fresh approach to a subject rife with prejudice and challenges us to think again about many taken-for-granted ideas about the process of parenting and the needs of children. It also demonstrates the power of narrative research and its capacity for bringing alive people's experience in a way that enables us to better understand their lives.
Download or read book The Politics of Political Science written by Paulo Ravecca and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-02-11 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this thought-provoking book, Paulo Ravecca presents a series of interlocking studies on the politics of political science in the Americas. Focusing mainly on the cases of Chile and Uruguay, Ravecca employs different strands of critical theory to challenge the mainstream narrative about the development of the discipline in the region, emphasizing its ideological aspects and demonstrating how the discipline itself has been shaped by power relations. Ravecca metaphorically charts the (non-linear) transit from “cold” to “warm” to “hot” intellectual temperatures to illustrate his—alternative—narrative. Beginning with a detailed quantitative study of three regional academic journals, moving to the analysis of the role of subjectivity (and political trauma) in academia and its discourse in relation to the dictatorships in Chile and Uruguay, and arriving finally at an intimate meditation on the experience of being a queer scholar in the Latin American academy of the 21st century, Ravecca guides his readers through differing explorations, languages, and methods. The Politics of Political Science: Re-Writing Latin American Experiences offers an essential reflection on both the relationship between knowledges and politics and the political and ethical role of the scholar today, demonstrating how the study of the politics of knowledge deepens our understanding of the politics of our times.
