Derecho del Trabajo y de la Seguridad Social para titulaciones no jurídicas
Author: Ma Teresa Velasco Portero
Publisher: Tecnos
ISBN: 8430961240
Category : Law
Languages : es
Pages : 517
Book Description
Esta tercera edición de nuestro Derecho del Trabajo y de la Seguridad Social para Titulaciones no Jurídicas, tras el éxito obtenido por las anteriores ediciones, aporta la necesaria puesta al día tras las importantes reformas que en ambas materias se han producido en los dos últimos años. La estructura es la misma que en la edición anterior, con algún pequeño cambio que ha consistido en la eliminación de uno de los capítulos, que tenía un enfoque más sociológico que laboral y la fusión de dos de los capítulos relativos al contrato de trabajo. Como principal novedad, hay que destacar el hecho de que cada capítulo incorpora un cuadro de objetivos de aprendizaje en su inicio, y un cuestionario de repaso al final, consistente en una serie de afirmaciones que el alumno deberá señalar si son verdaderas o falsas. También el capítulo final dedicado a los casos prácticos ha sido reformado en su totalidad, de manera que todos los ejercicios son nuevos.

Radical Sex Between Men
Author: Dave Holmes
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1315399520
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 335
Book Description
Bringing together theory and public health practice, this interdisciplinary collection analyses three forms of nonconventional or radical sexualities: bareback sex, BDSM practices, and public sex. Drawing together the latest empirical research from Brazil, Canada, Spain, and the USA, it mobilizes queer theory and poststructuralism, engaging the work of theorists such as Bataille, Butler, Deleuze and Guattari, and Foucault, among others. While the collection contributes to current research in gender and sexuality studies, it does so distinctly in the context of empirical investigations and discourses on critical public health. Radical Sex Between Men: Assembling Desiring-Machines will be of interest to advanced undergraduate students, postgraduate students, and researchers in gender and sexuality studies, sexology, social work, anthropology, and sociology, as well as practitioners in nursing, medicine, allied health professions, and psychology.

Engaging People in Sustainability
Author: Daniella Tilbury
Publisher: IUCN
ISBN: 9782831708232
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 152
Book Description
The book is based on the exchange of professional experiences which featured in an IUCN CEC workshop in August 2002. Practitioners from around the world shared their models of good practice and explored the challenges involved in engaging people in sustainability. The difficulties facing practitioners vary between country and context but some challenges are universal: A lack of clarity in communicating what is meant by sustainable development; An ambition to educate everyone to bring about a global citizenship; Social, organisational or institutional factors constrain change to sustainable development, yet there is an emphasis on formal education, and community educators do not receive the same support; A lack of balance in addressing the integration of environmental, social and economic dimensions leading to an interpretation that ESD is mainly about environment and conservation issues; New learning (rather than teaching) approaches are called for to promote more debate in society. Yet, few are trained or experienced in these new approaches. Practitioners need support to explore new ways of promoting learning. [Foreword, ed].

Markets without Limits
Author: Jason F. Brennan
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317815629
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 376
Book Description
May you sell your vote? May you sell your kidney? May gay men pay surrogates to bear them children? May spouses pay each other to watch the kids, do the dishes, or have sex? Should we allow the rich to genetically engineer gifted, beautiful children? Should we allow betting markets on terrorist attacks and natural disasters? Most people shudder at the thought. To put some goods and services for sale offends human dignity. If everything is commodified, then nothing is sacred. The market corrodes our character. Or so most people say. In Markets without Limits, Jason Brennan and Peter Jaworski give markets a fair hearing. The market does not introduce wrongness where there was not any previously. Thus, the authors claim, the question of what rightfully may be bought and sold has a simple answer: if you may do it for free, you may do it for money. Contrary to the conservative consensus, they claim there are no inherent limits to what can be bought and sold, but only restrictions on how we buy and sell.
