Download or read book Social Pedagogy for the Entire Lifespan written by Jacob Kornbeck and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2011-04 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ambition of this two-volume publication is to illustrate the applicability of social pedagogy - as an academic and professional paradigm - to work with the most diverse target populations. It is launched at a moment when important and highly interesting developments can be observed in the United Kingdom: a country without a traditional social pedagogy model has started importing social pedagogy from countries with a social pedagogy tradition. Social Pedagogy for the Entire Lifespan illustrates how social pedagogy - as a model in theory and practice - has been and is currently being used, around and across Europe, for work with people of all age groups. Volume I is dedicated to the theory and history of social pedagogy, as well as to practice with children and young people. Chapters cover Belgium, Denmark, France, Germany, Norway and Spain. Volume II will include chapters on practice with adults and seniors, as well as chapters on further perspectives.
Download or read book The Bureaucrat and the Poor written by Vincent Dubois and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-16 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Welfare offices usually attract negative descriptions of bureaucracy with their queues, routines, and impersonal nature. Are they anonymous machines or the locus of neutral service relationships? Showing how people experience state public administration, The Bureaucrat and the Poor provides a realistic view of French welfare policies, institutions and reforms and, in doing so, dispels both of these myths. Combining Lipsky's street-level bureaucracy theory with the sociology of Bourdieu and Goffman, this research analyses face-to-face encounters and demonstrates the complex relationship between welfare agents, torn between their institutional role and their personal feelings, and welfare applicants, required to translate their personal experience into bureaucratic categories. Placing these interactions within the broader context of social structures and class, race and gender, the author unveils both the social determinations of these interpersonal relationships and their social functions. Increasing numbers of welfare applicants, coupled with mass unemployment, family transformations and the so-called 'integration problem' of migrants into French society deeply affect these encounters. Staff manage tense situations with no additional resources - some become personally involved, while others stick to their bureaucratic role; most of them alternate between involvement and detachment, assistance and domination. Welfare offices have become a place for 're-socialisation', where people can talk about their personal problems and ask for advice. On the other hand, bureaucratic encounters are increasingly violent, symbolically if not physically. More than ever, they are now a means of regulating the poor.

This book was released on 2007 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La loi du 2 janvier 2002 positionne l'usager au cœur de l'action sociale.

Le rapport passe en revue la posture requise, tant des professionnels et des administrations que des usagers eux-mêmes, le processus de la relation d'aide, passé de l'assistance à l'accompagnement, et enfin les procédures indispensables à une refondation des relations entre travailleurs sociaux et usagers. Le droit à vivre sa sexualité est l'objet d'un chapitre entier.

Download or read book La contractualisation dans les syst mes de sant written by Jean Perrot and published by KARTHALA Editions. This book was released on 2005 with total page 612 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La démarche contractuelle est nouvelle dans les systèmes de santé, notamment dans les pays en développement. La multiplication et la diversification mais aussi la spécialisation des acteurs travaillant dans le domaine de la santé impliquent des relations entre eux qu'il faut organiser: la contractualisation le permet. Dans un mouvement accru en faveur de la déconcentration, les acteurs publics ne peuvent plus fonctionner en effet sur un mode hiérarchique alors que la gouvernance est au cœur des préoccupations. La contractualisation leur apporte des possibilités multiples, soit pour mieux collaborer entre eux, soit pour mieux exécuter leurs missions. Ces données montrent l'importance du champ de la contractualisation que ce livre parcoure en offrant aux lecteurs une double entrée : par la démarche et par les acteurs. Les deux premières parties sont consacrées à la présentation des concepts mais aussi des outils et des processus permettant la conception et la mise en œuvre d'une politique de contractualisation. La troisième partie détaille, pour chaque type d'acteurs, les possibilités apportées par la démarche contractuelle. Une dernière partie apporte la contribution de différentes approches pour analyser la contractualisation. Le message principal de cet ouvrage est que la contractualisation, lorsqu'elle est correctement utilisée, peut être un outil efficace pour améliorer la performance des systèmes de santé. Si la démarche contractuelle est applicable dans tous les pays, les auteurs accordent une importance particulière à la situation des pays en développement où la faiblesse des ressources et de la gouvernance donne une teneur particulière aux recommandations qui peuvent être faites.

Download or read book Self Tracking written by Gina Neff and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2016-06-24 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What happens when people turn their everyday experience into data: an introduction to the essential ideas and key challenges of self-tracking. People keep track. In the eighteenth century, Benjamin Franklin kept charts of time spent and virtues lived up to. Today, people use technology to self-track: hours slept, steps taken, calories consumed, medications administered. Ninety million wearable sensors were shipped in 2014 to help us gather data about our lives. This book examines how people record, analyze, and reflect on this data, looking at the tools they use and the communities they become part of. Gina Neff and Dawn Nafus describe what happens when people turn their everyday experience—in particular, health and wellness-related experience—into data, and offer an introduction to the essential ideas and key challenges of using these technologies. They consider self-tracking as a social and cultural phenomenon, describing not only the use of data as a kind of mirror of the self but also how this enables people to connect to, and learn from, others. Neff and Nafus consider what's at stake: who wants our data and why; the practices of serious self-tracking enthusiasts; the design of commercial self-tracking technology; and how self-tracking can fill gaps in the healthcare system. Today, no one can lead an entirely untracked life. Neff and Nafus show us how to use data in a way that empowers and educates.
