El conjunto de trabajos de este volumen revela el nivel alcanzado por el fenómeno de las drogas en el mundo andino, así como su significado en términos de las relaciones de Brasil, Estados Unidos y la Unión Europea con el área.

Drugs and Social Context
Author: Telmo Mota Ronzani
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319724460
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 121
Book Description
This book goes beyond the traditional approaches to drug use and discusses the issue from a societal perspective, integrating contributions from different disciplines such as psychology, public health, anthropology, law, public policies and sociology to address specifically the social aspects of the phenomenon. Given its complexity, drug use demands a multidisciplinary approach from many different perspectives, but despite the vast literature about the topic, the majority of the books are restricted either to a purely medical perspective (focused mainly on treatment techniques) or to a criminological perspective (focused mainly on drug trafficking and organized crime). The social approach adopted in this volume challenges this dichotomy and analyzes both the social contexts to which drug use is related and the social and political consequences of the attitudes and policies adopted by governments and other social groups towards drug users, addressing topics such as: Drugs and poverty Drugs and gender Drugs and race Drugs and territory Stigmatization of drug use Prohibitionism Given its broad and innovative approach, Drugs and Social Context - Social Perspectives on the Use of Alcohol and Other Drugs will be of interest for researchers, clinicians and other health professionals, since the study of the social aspects of drug use is central to everyone who deals with the issue.

Psychosocial Implications of Poverty
Author: Verônica Morais Ximenes
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3030242927
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 267
Book Description
This book presents a multidimensional, psychosocial and critical understanding of poverty by bringing together studies carried out with groups in different contexts and situations of deprivation in Brazil, Mexico, Paraguay, Nicaragua and Spain. The book is divided in two parts. The first part presents studies that unveil the psychosocial implications of poverty by revealing the processes of domination based on the stigmatization and criminalization of poor people, which contribute to maintain realities of social inequality. The second part presents studies focused on strategies to fight poverty and forms of resistance developed by individuals who are in situations of marginalization. The studies presented in this contributed volume depart from the theoretical framework developed by Critical Social Psychology, Community Psychology and Liberation Psychology, in an effort to understand poverty beyond its monetary dimension, bringing social, cultural, structural and subjective factors into the analysis. Psychological science in general has not produced specific knowledge about poverty as a result of the relations of domination produced by social inequalities fostered by the capitalist system. This book seeks to fill this gap by presenting a psychosocial perspective with psychological and sociological bases aligned in a dialectical way in order to understand and confront poverty. Psychosocial Implications of Poverty – Diversities and Resistances will be of interest to social psychologists, sociologists and economists interested in multidimensional studies of poverty, as well as to policy makers and activists directly working with the development of policies and strategies to fight poverty.

La pobreza en Barcelona en los años del Big crap (2008-2014)
Author: Jesús Martínez
Publisher: Editorial UOC
ISBN: 8490647321
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 179
Book Description
El Big Crap es el poder económico que se escapa del control político, una fuerza que no ha dejado de crecer mientras aumentaba la brecha entre los más ricos y los que menos tienen. En Barcelona, ese foso separa con claridad el concurrido centro turístico de la periferia marginal, que a veces está físicamente al lado de lugares que atraen a millones de visitantes. Hay quien cree que lo peor de la crisis económica ya ha pasado. Las administraciones aseguran que la ciudad ingresa cada año miles de millones de euros gracias al turismo. Pero lo cierto es que cada vez más personas se quedan sin ver ese dinero del que se supone que nos beneficiamos todos; se quedan ciegos. Según los datos del Instituto Nacional de Estadística sobre condiciones de vida, sigue aumentando el riesgo de que se formen bolsas de pobreza, zonas de marginalidad y atraso económico en un entorno desarrollado. En la Barcelona del Mobile World Congress y de los enormes cruceros, las desigualdades se agigantan, y se siguen viviendo historias de frontera, de héroes que no reciben medallas. Como la de Abderrahman, preocupado por si alguien le roba sus cartones; la de Ndrin, que alimenta a su bebé gracias a la beneficencia, y la de Irene, que lucha para que no la echen de su piso en la Zona Franca de Barcelona.

Substance Use, Public Policy and Harm Reduction
Author: Richard Alecsander Reichert
Publisher: Ethics International Press
ISBN: 1804417327
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 425
Book Description
This book offers an in-depth examination of the historical, political, and socio-cultural dimensions of psychoactive substance use, particularly within the Brazilian context. It provides a detailed analysis of the evolution of policies and approaches towards prohibitionism and criminalization, emphasizing their impact on marginalized and socially stigmatized groups. Through a comparative lens, it explores alternative regulatory models, exemplified by Uruguay's Cannabis legalization trajectory. Additionally, the work critically examines the complex interplay between gender, media representations, and illicit drug trafficking, shedding light on the intricate dynamics involved. Central to its discourse are preventive strategies and harm reduction interventions, which underscore the pivotal role of education, neuroscience, and community-based approaches in addressing substance use among adolescents. Drawing from diverse disciplinary perspectives, including neuroscience, psychology, and public health, the book offers a comprehensive understanding of substance use and dependence. By synthesizing research findings and evidence-based practices, it serves as a valuable resource for policymakers, healthcare professionals, educators, and researchers engaged in addiction studies, mental health, and public policy formulation.
