En el terreno de la salud mental infantil, asistimos hoy al abandono de la concepción del sujeto como producto de una construcción histórica, de la que también forma parte una psicogénesis (inconsciente) de la personalidad y que se despliega a partir de los vínculos. Este paradigma que concibe al niño como un sujeto biopsicosocial ha sido sustituido por el neurobiologismo propio de la cultura tecnocrática actual, que impera en el sistema de salud pública y privada, en atención primaria y secundaria. Así, el abordaje terapéutico del sufrimiento psíquico infantil redunda en sobrediagnósticos hechos a partir de instrumentos clasificatorios y estandarizados, y multiterapias que ent...
El Comité Internacional por los Derechos del Niño señala que el derecho a ser escuchado debería aplicarse tanto a cada niño como a grupos de niños, por ejemplo, los alumnos/as de una clase, los niños/as de un barrio o un país, los niños/as con discapacidades. También observa que las condiciones de edad y madurez pueden evaluarse en la escucha individual del niño/a o en grupos de niños/as. Además, plantea que es preciso alentar al niño/a a formarse una opinión y a expresarla, lo que implica el desarrollo activo de condiciones que lo sustenten. Los autores de esta obra proponen "escuchar las infancias", en plural, por cuanto la realidad muestra la variedad de niños, niñas y ad...
En esta obra, se presentan abordajes con jóvenes que, desde una perspectiva preventiva y clínica, favorecen la comunicación y elaboración de experiencias y vivencias, a fin de que ellos puedan comenzar a afirmarse y construirse como sujetos. Simultáneamente se despliega una profunda reflexión sobre las dificultades en el desarrollo e implementación de políticas públicas para el cuidado de las y los adolescentes. Los autores dan cuenta de dos grandes conjuntos de temas de relevancia en el marco de la interdisciplina: el sujeto de derecho y sujeto psíquico, y las experiencias subjetivantes. La vulnerabilidad social, familiar y psíquica se analiza desde diferentes prácticas realizadas con jóvenes en distintas situaciones de margen. El marco teórico referencial del psicoanálisis permite, una vez más, rescatar su valor como herramienta creativa y promotora de subjetividad, con la convicción de que la palabra habilita el proceso de subjetivación y cobra mayor dimensión para aquellos sujetos en los que ha sido acallada y/o violentada.
The understanding of global environmental management problems is best achieved through transdisciplinary research lenses that combine scientific and other sector (industry, government, etc.) tools and perspectives. However, developing effective research teams that cross such boundaries is difficult. This book demonstrates the importance of transdisciplinarity, describes challenges to such teamwork, and provides solutions for overcoming these challenges. It includes case studies of transdisciplinary teamwork, showing how these solutions have helped groups to develop better understandings of environmental problems and potential responses.
Markov processes are processes that have limited memory. In particular, their dependence on the past is only through the previous state. They are used to model the behavior of many systems including communications systems, transportation networks, image segmentation and analysis, biological systems and DNA sequence analysis, random atomic motion and diffusion in physics, social mobility, population studies, epidemiology, animal and insect migration, queueing systems, resource management, dams, financial engineering, actuarial science, and decision systems. Covering a wide range of areas of application of Markov processes, this second edition is revised to highlight the most important aspects...
This book explores the contrasting development options available to Beijing and Shanghai and proposes strategies for these cities based on their current and acquired capabilities, experience of other world cities, the emerging demand in the national market, and likely trends in global trade.
This book presents state-of-the-art analytical methods from statistics and data mining for the analysis of high-throughput data from genomics and proteomics. It adopts an approach focusing on concepts and applications and presents key analytical techniques for the analysis of genomics and proteomics data by detailing their underlying principles, merits and limitations.
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the PASCAL (pattern analysis, statistical modelling and computational learning) Statistical and Optimization Perspectives Workshop on Subspace, Latent Structure and Feature Selection techniques, SLSFS 2005. The 9 revised full papers presented together with 5 invited papers reflect the key approaches that have been developed for subspace identification and feature selection using dimension reduction techniques, subspace methods, random projection methods, among others.
The tropics are home to most of the world’s biodiversity and are currently the frontier for human settlement. Tropical ecosystems are being converted to agricultural and other land uses at unprecedented rates. Land conversion and maintenance almost always rely on fire and, because of this, fire is now more prevalent in the tropics than anywhere else on Earth. Despite pervasive fire, human settlement and threatened biodiversity, there is little comprehensive information available on fire and its effects in tropical ecosystems. Tropical deforestation, especially in rainforests, has been widely documented for many years. Forests are cut down and allowed to dry before being burned to remove bi...
In the 1960s, the governments of Colombia, Peru, and Bolivia launched agricultural settlement programs in each country’s vast Amazonian frontier lowlands. Two decades later, these exact same zones had transformed into the centers of the illicit cocaine boom of the Americas. Drawing on concepts from both history and anthropology, The Origins of Cocaine explores how three countries with divergent different mid-century political trajectories ended up with parallel outcomes in illicit frontier economies and cocalero cultures. Bringing together transnational, national, and local analyses, the volume provides an in-depth examination of the deep origins of drug economics in the Americas. As the first substantial study on the shift from agrarian colonization to narcotization, The Origins of Cocaine will appeal to scholars and postgraduate students of Latin American history, anthropology, globalization, development and environmental studies.
