Download or read book Sociolog a jur dica Teor a y sociolog a del derecho en Estados Unidos written by Varios autores and published by Universidad Nacional de Colombia. This book was released on 2006-01-01 with total page 430 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En América Latina existe un gran interés por el estudio de las relaciones entre el derecho y la sociedad desde muy diversos ámbitos: criminología, derechos humanos, democracia, políticas públicas, justicia, multiculturalismo, etc. Sin embargo, tales estudios no reconocen en la sociología jurídica un referente epistemológico y conceptual común que pudiera servir para entablar una comunicación entre ellos. Sería muy convincente que esto sucediera. Para ello es necesario construir una sociología jurídica latinoamericana. Esta tarea requiere como primer paso, la difusión de los contenidos esenciales de las tradiciones sociojurídicas existentes. Entre ellas, la norteramericana es sin duda la más productiva e influyente. El propósito de este libro es entonces el de servir de difusor de una serie de estudios clásicos a partir de los cuales es posible reflexionar mejor sobre nuestras propias realidades y concebir de mejor manera nuestras propias herramientas conceptuales y críticas

This book was released on 2022-04-08 with total page 837 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Digital violence continues to increase, especially during times of crisis. Racism, bullying, ageism, sexism, child pornography, cybercrime, and digital tracking raise critical social and digital security issues that have lasting effects. Digital violence can cause children to be dragged into crime, create social isolation for the elderly, generate inter-communal conflicts, and increase cyber warfare. A closer study of digital violence and its effects is necessary to develop lasting solutions. The Handbook of Research on Digital Violence and Discrimination Studies introduces the current best practices, laboratory methods, policies, and protocols surrounding international digital violence and discrimination. Covering a range of topics such as abuse and harassment, this major reference work is ideal for researchers, academicians, policymakers, practitioners, professionals, instructors, and students.

Download or read book Introducci n a la sociolog a del derecho written by Roger Cotterrell and published by Ediciones Olejnik. This book was released on 2023-12-01 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "El libro se concibió en la creencia de que el estudio sociológico del Derecho sobrepasa cualquier límite jurisdiccional. La Sociología del Derecho debería proporcionar las bases de un entendimiento de aquellas transformaciones del Derecho y la sociedad, que son más fundamentales que los particulares cambios jurídicos que ocurren en un ordenamiento concreto; debería proveer de una más amplia perspectiva, dentro de la cual un estudio jurídico comparativo pudiera reportar un rico conocimiento del contexto social del cambio jurídico. Al escribir el libro, impuse mi propio método de análisis sobre un amplio y disperso conjunto de materiales, y esbocé ciertas ideas teóricas propias, entre las que destacan una específica concepción de la naturaleza de la ideología, y, por ende, de la ideología jurídica. Dicha concepción se usa en el texto, para criticar la teoría marxista, para analizar las condiciones de aceptación popular del Derecho, para examinar algunos aspectos del profesionalismo jurídico, y especialmente para desarrollar una interpretación del papel de jueces y tribunales. Aunque la literatura de Sociología del Derecho ha crecido rápidamente, y mis ideas han evolucionado desde que escribí el libro, pienso que sus estructuras analíticas fundamentales siguen siendo válidas".

Download or read book Political Corruption and Organizational Crime written by Elizangela Valarini and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-10-01 with total page 425 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Level of compliance - one of the most important prerequisites of good governance - varies widely across countries of the Global North and the less developed, Global South. Acts of non-compliance, such as electoral irregularities, dubious deals between private and public sectors, questionable role of the justice systems and financial scandals, though they vary greatly across countries, are an omnipresent reality of contemporary life. This volume has brought together a number of case studies of such deviant behavior in political, juridical and corporate fields, from several countries of Asia, Europe and South America, within a common framework. Instead of a moral approach based exclusively on the legality and illegality of the act, the authors of these essays dissect non-compliance analytically, taking culture and context into account. They argue that, while criminal and corrupt dealings deserve to be exposed by all means from an ethical point of view, seen from an interdisciplinary angle, one needs to probe deeper into the dynamic that leads to such non-compliance with the law in the first place.
Download or read book World Anthropologies written by Gustavo Lins Ribeiro and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-07-12 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since its inception, anthropology's authority has been based on the assumption that it is a unified discipline emanating from the West. In an age of heightened globalization, anthropologists have failed to discuss consistently the current status of their practice and its mutations across the globe. World Anthropologies is the first book to provoke this conversation from various regions of the world in order to assess the diversity of relations between regional or national anthropologies and a contested, power-laden Western discourse. Can a planetary anthropology cope with both the 'provincial cosmopolitanism' of alternative anthropologies and the 'metropolitan provincialism' of hegemonic schools? How might the resulting 'world anthropologies' challenge the current panorama in which certain allegedly national anthropological traditions have more paradigmatic weight - and hence more power - than others? Critically examining the international dissemination of anthropology within and across national power fields, contributors address these questions and provide the outline for a veritable world anthropologies project.
Download or read book Free Fair and Alive written by David Bollier and published by New Society Publishers. This book was released on 2019-09-03 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The power of the commons as a free, fair system of provisioning and governance beyond capitalism, socialism, and other -isms. From co-housing and agroecology to fisheries and open-source everything, people around the world are increasingly turning to 'commoning' to emancipate themselves from a predatory market-state system. Free, Fair, and Alive presents a foundational re-thinking of the commons — the self-organized social system that humans have used for millennia to meet their needs. It offers a compelling vision of a future beyond the dead-end binary of capitalism versus socialism that has almost brought the world to its knees. Written by two leading commons activists of our time, this guide is a penetrating cultural critique, table-pounding political treatise, and practical playbook. Highly readable and full of colorful stories, coverage includes: Internal dynamics of commoning How the commons worldview opens up new possibilities for change Role of language in reorienting our perceptions and political strategies Seeing the potential of commoning everywhere. Free, Fair, and Alive provides a fresh, non-academic synthesis of contemporary commons written for a popular, activist-minded audience. It presents a compelling narrative: that we can be free and creative people, govern ourselves through fair and accountable institutions, and experience the aliveness of authentic human presence.

Download or read book Conceptualising Child Adult Relations written by Leena Alanen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2002-11-01 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Conceptualising Child-Adult Relations focuses on how children conceptualise and experience child-adult relations. The authors explore the idea of generation as a key to understanding children's agency in intersection with social worlds which are largely organised and ordered by adults. The authors explore two interconnected themes: how children define the division of labour between children and adults, and how far children regard themselves as constituting a seperate group. This book is ground-breaking in its focus on the variety and commonality in children's lives and views across a broad range of contexts. It provides innovative theoretical approaches to the growing study of childhood by homing in on intergenerational relations as a main concept, and draws attention to links across the main sites of children's lives such as the home, neighbourhood and school. Moreover, for policy related issues, this book provides food for thought about the social conditions and status of childhood, and the factors structuring it.
Download or read book The Metamorphoses of Kinship written by Maurice Godelier and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2012-03-03 with total page 657 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With marriage in decline, divorce on the rise, the demise of the nuclear family, and the increase in marriages and adoptions among same-sex partners, it is clear that the structures of kinship in the modern West are in a state of flux. In The Metamorphoses of Kinship, the world-renowned anthropologist Maurice Godelier contextualizes these developments, surveying the accumulated experience of humanity with regard to such phenomena as the organization of lines of descent, sexuality and sexual prohibitions. In parallel, Godelier studies the evolution of Western conjugal and familial traditions from their roots in the nineteenth century to the present. The conclusion he draws is that it is never the case that a man and a woman are sufficient on their own to raise a child, and nowhere are relations of kinship or the family the keystone of society. Godelier argues that the changes of the last thirty years do not herald the disappearance or death agony of kinship, but rather its remarkable metamorphosis—one that, ironically, is bringing us closer to the “traditional” societies studied by ethnologists.
Download or read book Rule Systems Theory written by Helena Flam and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2008 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Explaining the complexity of social life remains the central challenge of the social sciences. This book offers a variety of theoretical-empirical explorations and applications inspired by an important neo-institutional approach to tackling this complexity - the rule systems theory. Its point of departure is the assumption that institutions and cultural formations possess causal powers and relative autonomy, constraining and enabling people's social actions and interactions. Structural and cultural properties of society are carried by, transmitted, and reformed by human agents whose interactions generate, reproduce, elaborate and transform structures. The contributors are highly accomplished economists, sociologists and political scientists who come from the US and several European countries. The book is meant as a Festschrift for Tom Burns, a central figure in the development of the rule systems theory.
