Book Description
Este libro constituye una herramienta para acercarse a la violencia de género, cualquiera que sea el punto de partida. Se aborda desde campos muy distintos del saber, para que cada uno arroje un poco de luz y se pueda obtener una visión de conjunto, una perspectiva global que nos explique esta aparente sinrazón, que nos saque de la mirada fragmentada que impide ver. Trata sobre la violencia de género, sus causas y efectos, el problema de salud que representa, la intervención psicológica, la asistencia social, la prevención de la violencia masculina hacia las mujeres a través de la educación, el papel de las Fuerzas y Cuerpos de Seguridad y la legislación para combatirla. Esta violencia no sólo afecta a las mujeres, son muchos los y las menores que la sufren. Por eso se les dedica una atención especial en este libro que concluye con un estudio sobre el interés superior del menor. La violencia de género afecta a las mujeres, a sus hijas e hijos, a los familiares, a las amistades. Afecta a toda la sociedad. Son muchas las vidas destrozadas. Tenemos la obligación moral de implicarnos, de adoptar modelos de masculinidad y femineidad que potencien un desarrollo integral de la persona, que fomenten relaciones basadas en el respeto, en la libertad y en la igualdad.

Protest and Democracy
Author: Moises Arce
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781773854366
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
In 2011, political protests sprang up across the world. In the Middle East, Europe, Latin America, the United States unlikely people sparked or led massive protest campaigns from the Arab Spring to Occupy Wall Street. These protests were made up of educated and precariously employed young people who challenged the legitimacy of their political leaders, exposed a failure of representation, and expressed their dissatisfaction with their place in the aftermath of financial and economic crisis. This book interrogates what impacts--if any--this global protest cycle had on politics and policy and shows the sometimes unintended ways it continues to influence contemporary political dynamics throughout the world. Proposing a new framework of analysis that calls attention to the content and claims of protests, their global connections, and the responsiveness of political institutions to protest demands, this is one of the few books that not only asks how protest movements are formed but also provides an in-depth examination of what protest movements can accomplish. With contributions examining the political consequences of protest, the roles of social media and the internet in protest organization, left- and right-wing movements in the United States, Chile's student movements, the Arab Uprisings, and much more this collection is essential reading for all those interested in the power of protest to shape our world.

Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 382
Book Description
From early answer sheets filled in with number 2 pencils, to tests administered by mainframe computers, to assessments wholly constructed by computers, it is clear that technology is changing the field of educational and psychological measurement.
