The Impact of Protracted Peace Processes on Identities in Conflict
This open access book discusses the impact of protracted peace processes on identities in conflict. It is concerned with how lingering peace processes affect, in the long-term, patterns of othering in protracted conflicts, and how this relates with enduring violence. Taking Israel and Palestine as a case study, the book traces different representations of success and failure of the protracted peace process, as well as its associated policies, narratives, norms and practices, to analyze its impact on identity and its contribution to the maintenance and/or transformation of the cultural component of violence. On the one hand, drawing from an interdisciplinary approach comprising International ...

O Futuro do Trabalho em Debate
Respondendo ao desafio lançado pelo Diretor-Geral da Organização Internacional do Trabalhado (OIT) de debater “O Futuro do Trabalho” no quadro da preparação do centenário da OIT (em 2019), este livro reúne os principais contributos resultantes da primeira Simulação da Conferência Internacional do Trabalho em ambiente universitário europeu. Além dos discursos institucionais (das entidades organizadoras, dos convidados institucionais e dos representantes dos parceiros sociais), o livro detalha os conteúdos das sessões de trabalho em que os 300 delegados (estudantes da Universidade de Coimbra) estiveram envolvidos ao longo de meses. O corolário dos debates sobre o futuro do trabalho, repartidos por 4 comités – (i) A macro regulação económica do emprego. Do pleno emprego à plena empregabilidade? (ii) Novas tecnologias: fim do trabalho ou fim do emprego? (iii) Trabalho desigual? Novas formas de desigualdade e a organização do trabalho (iv) O futuro das relações de trabalho: direito ao trabalho e o direito do trabalho –, são as inúmeras propostas que se encontram vertidas na obra.
Memory, Trauma and Narratives of the Self
This insightful book explores the impact of traumatic experiences on the constitution of narrative identity. Editors Edmundo Balsemão Pires, Cláudio Alexandre S. Carvalho, and Joana Ricarte bring together multidisciplinary experts to examine the epistemic and ethical-political value of narrative memory, demonstrating its significance in forming essential aspects of the self and collective identity. Challenging the idea of memory as a static, easily accessible and transferable repository, contributing authors instead present it as a dynamic process influenced by historical, therapeutic, artistic and political factors. Analysing the lasting impact of traumatic events, they assess the history...

Israelis and Palestinians in the Shadows of the Wall
Shedding light on the recent mutations of the Israeli separation policy, whose institutional and spatial configurations are increasingly complex, this book argues that this policy has actually reinforced the interconnectedness of Israelis and Palestinian lives and their spaces. Instead of focusing on the over-mediatized separation wall, this book deals with what it hides: its shadows. Based on fieldwork studies carried out by French, Italians, Israelis, Palestinian and Swiss researchers on the many sides of the Israeli-Palestinian divide, it highlights a new geography of occupation, specific forms of interconnectedness and power relations between Israeli and Palestinian spaces.
