Neoliberalism Inequality and Authoritarianism
This book exposes the inherent contradictions of neoliberalism. The myth of limitless growth ignores the reality of resource constraints and fuels a global upward transfer of wealth. Meanwhile, a fractured global economy and intensifying class warfare chip away at neoliberalism's foundation. As inequality spirals and social justice crumbles, the model increasingly serves a privileged few at the expense of the majority. This undermines the Enlightenment ideal of using liberal democracy to improve lives in the age of mass politics, threatening neoliberalism's very survival.
Intertwining Graphonomics with Human Movements
This book constitutes the proceedings of the 20th International Conference of the International Graphonomics Society, IGS 2021/2022. Originally planned to be celebrated in September 2021, due to the COVID-19 pandemic it was held in June 2022. The 36 full and 3 short papers presented at the conference were carefully reviewed and selected from 41 submissions and reviewed by a committee of 67 reviewers. Out of the 41 conferences, 26 papers were selected to be published in this proceedings. The program was comprised of 6 oral sessions on the following topics: historical documents, forensic handwriting examinations, handwriting learning and development, and motor control. One additional poster session included papers on all previous topics, and three special sessions included papers on neurodegenerative disorders.
A Handbook of Economic Anthropology
This timely Research Agenda examines the ways in which public–private partnerships (PPPs) in infrastructure continue to excite policy makers, governments, research scholars and critics around the world. It analyzes the PPP research journey to date and articulates the lessons learned as a result of the increasing interest in improving infrastructure governance. Expert international contributors explore how PPP ideas have spread, transferred and transformed, and propose a range of future research directions.
Reducing Inequalities
This edited collection analyses social inequality in the European Union, within and between countries. The work critically explores both vertical inequality, existing between those with high incomes and low incomes, and horizontal inequality, existing between groups according to nationality, age, ethnicity, and gender. Reducing Inequalities has been written by leading academics in the field who describe the current social situation in the European Union, focussing on inequality from a multidimensional perspective that includes income, poverty, social exclusion, education. The authors argue that social issues such as these have become national prerogatives for countries within the European Un...
Protest, Youth and Precariousness
After over a decade of the austerity measures that followed the 2008 financial crisis—entailing severe, unpopular policies that have galvanized opposition and frayed social ties—what lies next for European societies? Portugal offers an interesting case for exploring this question, as a nation that was among the hardest hit by austerity and is now seeking a fresh path forward. This collection brings together sociologists, social movement specialists, political scientists, and other scholars to look specifically at how Portuguese youth have navigated this politically and economically difficult period, negotiating uncertain social circumstances as they channel their discontent into protest and collective action.
The Lognormality Principle And Its Applications In E-security, E-learning And E-health
This compendium provides a detailed account of the lognormality principle characterizing the human motor behavior by summarizing a sound theoretical framework for modeling such a behavior, introducing the most recent algorithms for extracting the lognormal components of complex movements in 2, 2.5 and 3 dimensions. It also vividly reports the most advanced applications to handwriting analysis and recognition, signature and writer verification, gesture recognition and calligraphy generation, evaluation of motor skills, improvement/degradation with aging, handwriting learning, education and developmental deficits, prescreening of children with ADHD (Attention Development and Hyperactivity Disorder), monitoring of concussion recovery, diagnosis and monitoring of Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases and aging effects in speech and handwriting.The volume provides a unique and useful source of references on the lognormality principle, an update on the most recent advances and an outlook at the most promising future developments in e-Security, e-Learning and e-Health.
Flexibilização educacional
A flexibilização educacional é um convite para que o(a) professor(a) se dedique a uma reflexão crítica e criativa sobre o processo de mediação docente, em especial, na Educação Física, a partir dos conceitos teóricos de dois autores chaves, Vygotsky (1991, 2001) e Feuerstein (1991). Propomos a realização de Pesquisas Pedagógicas que empreendam uma análise dialética do Ciclo de Mediação e dos Recursos Auxiliares de Mediação, de maneira contribuírem para a produção de saberes docentes, que possibilitem a construção de experiências de aprendizagem significativas para os(as) educandos(as). A mediação se refere tanto à influência exercida pelo signo sobre o pensament...
