El estudio presente, el mismo que desbroza las consecuencias subjetivas en el sujeto denominado adolescente, integrante de una comunidad específica tras el terremoto del 16 de abril de 2016 en Bahía de Caráquez, se consagra como una inmersión profunda en las complejidades del proceso de desarrollo y la construcción de subjetividad en contextos adversos. Surge en un marco de investigación e intervención cualitativos, bajo el método de recolección de la historia personal, para dar un salto al protagonismo de esa novela personal-familiar contada, a la vez traumática, pero también embrollada.
El libro realiza un interesante y profundo recorrido del significado de vivir la psicología, donde la forma de hacer psicología traspasa el terreno de las modalidades presenciales, híbridas o virtuales. Lo llamativo de este texto es poder encontrar una ilación contundente desde lo teórico, la práctica y el relato de experiencias terapéuticas propias del psicólogo mediante su intervención. El grupo de psicólogos que exponen sus vivencias y reflexiones promueve un repensar de la psicología, donde el cambio en las formas de intervención es lo único cierto, y donde el enfo- que primordial es cómo hacer más humana la vivencia de las personas para enfrentar un entorno complejo con una pandemia crítica en el país y en el mundo.
Illuminates the threats Black women face and the lack of substantive public policy towards gendered violence Black women in marginalized communities are uniquely at risk of battering, rape, sexual harassment, stalking and incest. Through the compelling stories of Black women who have been most affected by racism, persistent poverty, class inequality, limited access to support resources or institutions, Beth E. Richie shows that the threat of violence to Black women has never been more serious, demonstrating how conservative legal, social, political and economic policies have impacted activism in the U.S.-based movement to end violence against women. Richie argues that Black women face partic...
Describing and assessing feminist inroads into the state Feminists walk the halls of power. Governance Feminism: An Introduction shows how some feminists and feminist ideas—but by no means all—have entered into state and state-like power in recent years. Being a feminist can qualify you for a job in the United Nations, the World Bank, the International Criminal Court, the local prosecutor’s office, or the child welfare bureaucracy. Feminists have built institutions and participate in governance. The authors argue that governance feminism is institutionally diverse and globally distributed. It emerges from grassroots activism as well as statutes and treaties, as crime control and as imm...

Originally published in 1990, Psychoanalysis and... brings together essays by critics whose work demonstrates the lively interpenetration of psychoanalysis and other disciplines. Andrew Ross investigates psychoanalysis and Marxist thought; Joel Fineman reads the "sound of O" in Othello; Jane Gallop asks "Why does Freud giggle when the women leave the room?"; and Ellie Ragland-Sullivan examines Lacan’s seminars on James Joyce. This stimulating collection of work should still be required reading, especially for students of literature. But Psychoanalysis and... demonstrates that psychoanalysis – and theoretical criticism, and feminism, and Lacanian theory, and semiotics, and Marxism, and deconstruction, and literary criticism – was, at the time, a rich and expanding terrain.

Margaret McKerchar, The British Accounting Review Torgler s book is a valuable contribution to the tax field, especially as it pioneers research into tax morale that is in its infancy and helps redress the US domination of the tax-compliance literature. It places econometric analysis where it rightly belongs as the supporting act, not the main feature! and takes a holistic approach in attempting to explain the complex area of human behaviour that tax compliance involves, whatever the country. Jeff Pope, Agend...
