Narrativas de mulheres idosas avós

  • Type: Book

  • Published: 2025-02-21

  • Publisher: Editora CRV

Este livro lança luz sobre um tema de profunda relevância acadêmica e social: o papel das mulheres idosas avós na contemporaneidade. Com um olhar que combina rigor acadêmico e sensibilidade, desvela múltiplas camadas das avosidades, explorando desde vivências cotidianas até complexas intersecções de gênero, raça e classe. A escrita – sem abdicar dos preceitos científicos, da integridade em pesquisa e de uma interlocução teórico-conceitual sólida – aproxima-se do poético, utilizando metáforas relacionadas à construção e contemplação de um jardim para enriquecer a narrativa. As falas das avós-flores celebram a ancestralidade, conectando passado, presente e futuro e...

CTS and Right-Wing Terrorism and Counterterrorism

This volume is a timely contribution to the current debates and potential efforts to study and counter the phenomena of extreme right violence in a period when the rise of right-wing extremism is being witnessed across the globe. Against this backdrop, the violent radicalisation and extremism of individuals and groups belonging to the extreme right threaten to undermine and destabilize societies and democratic orders, leaving a research gap that has only started to be filled in recent years, but that is still quite wide when it comes to counter-terrorism approaches to extreme right violence. Learning from the past, and trying to avoid similar mistakes, this volume creates a much-needed space...

Contemporary Reflections on Critical Terrorism Studies

Bringing together established and emerging voices in Critical Terrorism Studies (CTS), this book offers fresh and dynamic reflections on CTS and envisages possible lines of future research and ways forward. The volume is structured in three sections. The first opens a space for intellectual engagement with other disciplines such as Sociology, Peace Studies, Critical Pedagogy, and Indigenous Studies. The second looks at topics that have not received much attention within CTS, such as silences in discourses, the politics of counting dead bodies, temporality or anarchism. The third presents ways of ‘performing’ CTS through research-based artistic performances and productions. Overall, the volume opens up a space for broadening and pushing CTS forward in new and imaginative ways. This book will be of interest to students of critical terrorism studies, critical security studies, sociology and International Relations in general. Chapters 2 of this book are available for free in Open Access at www.taylorfrancis.com. It has been made available under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International 4.0 license.

Cultural History of Early Modern European Streets

  • Publisher: BRILL

In urban life, streets are elemental, but urban history seldom places them centre stage. It tends to view them as mere backdrops for events or social relations, or to study them as material constructions, the fruit of urban planning, but largely vacant of inhabitants. Examining people and streets in tandem, the contributors to this volume strive towards more integrated urban history. They discuss the social and political processes of early modern street life, and the discursive play in which streets figured. Six chapters, based in Sweden-Finland, England, Portugal, Italy, and Transylvania, discuss the subtle interplay of the material and immaterial, public and private, planned order and versatility, spontaneous invention, control and resistance – all matters central to how streets worked. Contributors are Emese Bálint, Maria Helena Barreiros, Elizabeth S. Cohen, Thomas V. Cohen, Alexander Cowan, Anu Korhonen, Riitta Laitinen, and Dag Lindström.
