The Palgrave Biographical Encyclopedia of Psychology in Latin America
This biographical encyclopedia will provide the first comprehensive reference work on leading scholars and professionals who have contributed to the development and institutionalization of psychology in Latin America. The figures biographed will include scholars who have made a significant theoretical contribution to the discipline, as well as, practitioners and those who have contributed to the institutionalization of psychology, through their work in scientific organisations, professional bodies and publications. All persons included are recognized authorities and either natives of, or long-term residents in the region. It will offer an invaluable reference point, in particular for scholars of the history of psychology, Latin American studies, the history of science, and global psychology; as well as for historians, psychologists and social scientists seeking international perspectives on the development of the discipline.
A New Social Contract in a Latin American Education Context
A New Social Contract in a Latin American Education Context is committed to what has become known as "perspective of the South:" understanding the South not as a geographical reference but as a vindication of the existence of ways of knowing and of living which struggle for their survival and for a legitimate place in a world where the respect for difference is balanced with the right for equality. The metaphor of the new social contract stands for the desire to envision another world, which paradoxically cannot but spring out of the entrails of the existing one. Could the same contract under which the colonial orders were erected serve as a tool for decolonizing relations, knowledge, and power? Consequently, what kind of education could effectively help structure a new social contract? These are some of the questions Streck addresses.
Handbook of Latin American Studies, Vol. 76
Beginning with Number 41 (1979), the University of Texas Press became the publisher of the Handbook of Latin American Studies, the most comprehensive annual bibliography in the field. Compiled by the Hispanic Division of the Library of Congress and annotated by a corps of specialists in various disciplines, the Handbook alternates from year to year between social sciences and humanities. The Handbook annotates works on Mexico, Central America, the Caribbean and the Guianas, Spanish South America, and Brazil, as well as materials covering Latin America as a whole. Most of the subsections are preceded by introductory essays that serve as biannual evaluations of the literature and research underway in specialized areas.
Interkulturelle Seelsorge
Kultur ist ein Faktor, der jeden Seelsorge- und Beratungsprozess von Grund auf prägt. Seelsorge und Beratung werden ihrem Auftrag nur gerecht, wenn sie die kulturelle Bedingtheit des Verhaltens von Klienten, Seelsorgern und Beratern bewusst wahrnehmen und mit ihr arbeiten. Das Ziel dieser Studie ist es, im Gespräch mit Erkenntnissen der Ethnologie, Psychotherapieforschung, Psychologie und Soziologie Elemente der Theorie und Praxis einer kulturell sensiblen Beratung und Seelsorge zu entwickeln. Das Modell greift Erfahrungen aus der Familienberatung in Brasilien auf, beansprucht aber darüber hinaus, für die interkulturelle Seelsorge und Beratung in westlichen Industrieländern relevant und...
Morality in Social Life
Bastianel views moral personal life as more than a private and individual reality. Indeed, one's relationship with the other is basic to the moral experience, and it constitutes part of the inner unity of a free and conscious responsible person. Human beings live out their relationships within the historic concreteness of life in commonality with others. The historical expression of that which is morally wrong takes the form of scattered and dividing relationships with the intention of possession, domination, fighting and division. On the other hand, history shows us that the human quality of relationships effecting that which is good is expressed through acceptance and the capability of creating shared forms of life. The Christian interpretation of history, with its goal of community, asks in each situation about the human quality of relationships and the structures of social life. This book addresses the interconnections between personal morals and social justice, raising fundamental questions about political life and economics, about hunger and development, about common good and institutions.
A New Introduction to the Synoptic Gospels
Meynet offers a new perspective on the study of the Synoptic Gospels, adding further insights within the growing body of modern research into the meanings of the Gospels of Matthew, Mark and Luke. He studies the composition of the Gospels as they were written and combines critical analysis with the evangelists' own intentions.
A Bondade Em Meio A Barbárie
Caros leitores e leitoras, os ensaios que vocês têm em mãos são frutos de pesquisas que realizei acerca da bondade a partir do testemunho do Holocausto, isto é, de diários, cartas, autobiografias e outros textos escritos por pessoas vítimas dos regimes político nazista e comunista durante a Segunda Guerra Mundial (1939 a 1945). As pesquisas envolveram outras temáticas afins como memória, trauma, dialogicidade e fascismo. Alguns destas foram publicadas em revistas científicas e eventos acadêmico-científicos, outras circularam apenas entre amigos e amigas com os quais compartilho amores, paixões e esperanças. Todos os ensaios sofreram alterações para a presente publicação.
