Download or read book Labour Law and Welfare Systems in an Era of Demographic Technological and Environmental Changes written by Anthony Forsyth and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2019-06-19 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book discusses how labour law and welfare systems will be affected by the ongoing transformation of work. The first section considers demography from two different perspectives. On the one hand, it focuses on chronic diseases and their impact on work, emphasising the role and the regulation of welfare systems. On the other, attention is given to youth unemployment and to those forms of employment which might have an impact on young people. Section II touches upon the relationship between the environment and industrial relations, while the third part broaches the topic of the impact of technology in the context of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, also known as Industry 4.0. As such, this volume provides an exhaustive picture of the changes currently underway, considering all the aspects which will affect work now and in the future.

Download or read book Saracen Tales written by Giuseppe Bonaviri and published by Crossings. This book was released on 2007 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fiction. Short Stories. Translated from the Italian by Barbara De Marco. In SARACEN TALES, Italian-born Giuseppe Bonaviri brings a wild newness to the tale of the life of Jesus. In this succession of stories, Bonaviri explores all manners of the known and unknown, the archetypal, the mythological, the symbolic--the life of Jesus is both his material and his point of departure. Part surrealism, part folklore, readers will be amazed at the originality and creativity with which a long-familiar tale is presented. "Bonaviri is a myth-maker, looking simultaneously to the historical past and to the future, to arrive at the a-historical, at cosmic universality"--Franco Zangrilli. Giuseppe Bonaviri was born in 1924 in Sicily. He began writing when he was ten and continued through high school, college, and in his professional life as a doctor, health official, and cardiologist. His work has been widely translated.

Download or read book Stop Street Harassment written by Holly Kearl and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2010-08-03 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using groundbreaking studies, news stories, and interviews, this book underscores that there will never be gender equity until men stop harassing women in public spaces—and it details strategies for achieving this goal. Street harassment is generally dismissed as harmless, but in reality, it causes women to feel unsafe in public, at least sometimes. To achieve true gender equality, it must come to an end. Stop Street Harassment: Making Public Places Safe and Welcoming for Women draws on academic studies, informal surveys, news articles, and interviews with activists to explore the practice's definition and prevalence, the societal contexts in which it occurs, and the role of factors such as race and sexual orientation. Perhaps more crucially, the book makes clear how women experience street harassment—how they feel about and respond to it—and the ways it negatively impacts lives. But understanding is only a beginning. In the second half of the book, readers will find concrete strategies for dealing with street harassers and ways to become involved in working to end this all-too-common violation. Educators, counselors, parents, and other concerned individuals will discover resources for teaching about harassment and modeling behavior that will help prevent harassment incidents.

Download or read book The Politics of Protection written by Jef Huysmans and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2006-05-17 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new book shows how from the end of the Cold War, the security agenda has been transformed and redefined, academically and politically. It focuses on the theme of protection. It moves away from the dominant question of whom or what is threatening to the crucial questions of who is to be protected, and in the case of conflicting claims, who has the capacity to define whose needs prevail. It also poses the question of political agency in relation to some of the most significant questions raised in relation to the governance of insecurity and protection in the contemporary world. The authors identify and explore issues that challenge or raise a number of questions about the traditional notion that states are to protect their citizens through retaining a monopoly over the legitimate use of violence.

Download or read book Governing Societies Political Perspectives On Domestic And International Rule written by Dean, Mitchell and published by McGraw-Hill Education (UK). This book was released on 2007-06-01 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What structures of power are involved in governing societies and how are they connected? How is the liberal idea of governing through freedom linked to the increasing control of marginalised populations? Have we reached the end of history in which governing largely concerns self-governing individuals, networks and communities? Should we dispense with the 'container view of society' and contemplate the 'death of the social'? Today, many people in academia, politics and business, question the idea of being able to govern society. The nation state and sovereign government are displaced by globalization and individualization. Mitchell Dean focuses on ‘governing societies’ as a distinctive project that continues to define political life today. The book offers a critical analysis of contemporary liberal approaches to governing societies both in domestic and international affairs. Governing Societies provides an overview of current perspectives and theories and examines recent transformations in techniques and rationalities of rule. It presents a new argument for the importance and transformation of sovereignty and powers of life and death and how they are integral to governing liberal-democratic societies. The book is key reading for undergraduate and postgraduate students of sociology and politics, as well as researchers and academics.

Download or read book Citizenship and Security written by Xavier Guillaume and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-08-15 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book engages the intense relationship between citizenship and security in modern politics. It focuses on questions of citizenship in security analysis in order to critically evaluate how political being is and can be constituted in relation to securitising practices. In light of contemporary issues and events such as human rights regimes, terrorism, identity control, commercialisation of security, diaspora, and border policies, this book addresses a citizenship deficit in security studies. The chapters introduce several key political themes that characterise the interplays between citizenship and security: changes in citizenship regimes, the renewed insecurity of citizenship-state relations, the emerging ways by which the political and national communities are crafted, and the ways democratic societies and regimes react in times of insecurity. Approaching citizenship as both a governmental practice and a resource of political contestation, the book aims to highlight what political challenges and contestations are created in situations where security intensely meets citizenship today. This book will be of interest to scholars of security studies and security politics, citizenship studies, and international relations.

This book was released on 2018-04-09 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Un análisis intensivo tanto de los contenidos en materia de igualdad de género en la negociación colectiva en una muestra amplia y heterogénea de países de la Unión Europea, cuanto de las buenas prácticas en mainstreaming de género desarrolladas por los agentes sociales en el mismo ámbito. Las evidencias son consideradas desde una perspectiva crítica, partiendo de sus bases políticas y normativas, de la fáctica -y, en ocasiones, jurídica- transversalidad in peius de las condiciones laborales de las mujeres, y abordando su estudio comparado, bajo el scope del Marco de Acción en materia de Igualdad de Género adoptado por los agentes sociales a nivel de la Unión Europea y su seguimiento. Asimismo, se lleva a cabo un análisis comparativo de la eficacia cuantitativa de las medidas adoptadas, ponderando la efectividad de aquellas establecidas en la negociación colectiva frente a las encuadradas en modelos soft-law. Este trabajo se constituye en herramienta útil para el desempeño profesional y científico del Derecho del Trabajo, en lo relativo a la igualdad de género. También para el diseño, análisis y aplicación de políticas públicas de igualdad de oportunidades de mujeres y hombres. Asimismo, para los agentes sociales en el desarrollo de medidas negociales ordenadas a la prevista continuidad de objetivos del Marco de Acción en materia de Igualdad de Género, vehiculada, ahora, en la aplicación del Acuerdo Marco Europeo sobre Mercados de Trabajo Inclusivos.
