Category : Political Science

Pages : 480

This Handbook gives readers the analytical tools to understand urban social policies in context, and bridges the gap in research.
Global Networks, Local Actions
Author: Marcella MilanaPublisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1317385764
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 270
Book Description
Global Networks, Local Actions: Rethinking adult education policy in the 21st century examines public policy developments in adult education, exploring the policy framing of adult education practice in a range of socio-cultural contexts, and contributing to the development of policy research from global and comparative perspectives. Drawing from multidisciplinary fields such as adult education, comparative and international education, and sociology, chapters analyse empirically grounded studies from the US, Italy, Argentina and Brazil. Each study helps to identify how political agents interact at international, regional, national and local scales, and what the implications are for publically-funded interventions in adult education. While this book recognises the complexity of adult education policy, it argues for the need to deconstruct the false belief that what is global in adult education may be intrinsically distinct from the characteristics of geographical or social territories in which adult education occurs. Instead, it points to localised norms and ideas on Adult Basic and Secondary Education as ultimately contained in, and constituting, what is at times perceived as global, or abstracted from definite geographical or social territories. This book calls for a global sociology of adult education in response to global challenges, and makes an important contribution to our understanding of developments in public adult education policy. As such, it will be of key interest to researchers, academics and postgraduate students in the fields of adult education, comparative and international education, education policy and politics, sociology of education, and global studies.

Paths of Inequality in Brazil
Author: Marta ArretchePublisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319781847
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 371
Book Description
This book presents multidisciplinary analyses of the historical trajectories of social and economic inequalities in Brazil over the last 50 years. As one of the most unequal countries in the world, Brazil has always been an important case study for scholars interested in inequality research, but in the last few decades has brought a new phenomenon to renew researchers’ interest in the country. While the majority of democracies in the developed world have witnessed an increase in income inequality from the 1970s on, Brazil has followed the opposite path, registering a significant reduction of income inequality over the last 30 years. Bringing together studies carried out by experts from different areas, such as economists, sociologists, demographers and political scientists, this volume presents insights based on rigorous analyses of statistical data in an effort to explain the long term changes in social and economic inequalities in Brazil. The book adopts a multidisciplinary approach, analyzing the relations between income inequality and different dimensions of social life, such as education, health, political participation, public policies, demographics and labor market. All of this makes Paths of Inequality in Brazil – A Half-Century of Change a very valuable resource for social scientists interested in inequality research in general, and especially for sociologists, political scientists and economists interested in the social and economic changes that Brazil went through over the last two decades.

ISBN: 3319947249
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 1318
Book Description
This authoritative, state-of-the-art reference work builds on its first edition to provide a cutting-edge systematic review of the relationship between race/ethnicity and educational inequality. Studying 25 different national contexts drawn from every inhabited continent on earth and building upon material from the earlier edition, the work analyses educational policies, practices and research on minority students, immigrants and refugees. The editors and contributors explore principal research traditions from countries as diverse as Argentina, China, Norway and South Africa, examining the factors promoting social cohesion as well as considerations regarding the use of international test score data. Seamlessly integrating findings of national reviews, the editors and contributors analyse how national contexts of race/ethnic relations shape the character and content of educational inequalities, and deftly map out new directions for future research in the area. Global in its perspective and definitive in content, this one-stop volume will be an indispensable reference resource for a wide range of academics, students and researchers in the fields of education, sociology, race and ethnicity studies and social policy.

Book Description
A XVI Jornada de Iniciação Científica da Universidade Católica de Petrópolis faz parte do espírito de celebração acadêmica, de diálogo científico e de reconhecimento que movem nossa comunidade de ensino e pesquisa. Dentre as principais tarefas da XVI Jornada de Iniciação Científica, destacam-se a celebração das metas já alcançadas, a consciência dos limites dos saberes adquiridos, o reconhecimento da complementariedade na diversidade dos temas, problemas e métodos científicos, e, a projeção do futuro de nossa comunidade sobre o vasto universo da pesquisa. A ampliação dos horizontes de nossa Universidade exige sempre mais daqueles que se unem em razão da busca da verdade através da pesquisa acadêmica. Graças à maturidade de seus cursos de graduação e à gradativa consolidação de seus programas de pós-graduação stricto sensu, a Universidade Católica de Petrópolis oferece um campo cada vez mais amplo de oportunidades e desafios para a iniciação à investigação científica. A publicação dos Anais da XVI Jornada de Iniciação Científica da Universidade Católica de Petrópolis demonstra o compromisso institucional com a divulgação da produção científica. Ao serem publicados na forma de Anais, os resumos dos projetos de pesquisa oferecem um panorama sintético do que se realiza com os recursos do Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico (CNPq) e da Fundação Celso da Rocha Miranda (FCRM). Os organizadores da presente publicação agradecem à Reitoria da Universidade pela confiança nos trabalhos de iniciação científica, desenvolvidos pelo seu corpo docente e discente. Agradecem aos docentes, externos e internos, responsáveis pela criteriosa seleção dos projetos contemplados pelo Programa Institucional de Bolsas de Iniciação Científica (PIBIC/CNPq e PIBIC/FCRM). Agradecem também a todos os que aderiram à atual proposta de publicação, enviando no prazo os seus resumos aos cuidados da Coordenação Geral de Pesquisa e Pós-Graduação. Agradecem, enfim, aos funcionários da UCP, que tornaram possível a realização em 29 de outubro de 2014 da XVI Jornada de Iniciação Científica da Universidade Católica de Petrópolis. Esperamos que essa obra seja uma justa memória e, sobretudo, um sincero reconhecimento aos professores e aos jovens pesquisadores da UCP pela perseverança na árdua e gratificante busca do saber.
