Gracielle investiga o teto tácito de pensão alimentícia, mostrando como as decisões judiciais desvalorizam o trabalho de cuidado realizado majoritariamente pelas mulheres e são influenciadas por constructos preconceituosos contra as mulheres.
Ao longo de vinte anos no ensino público estadual e municipal no Rio de Janeiro e nos últimos cinco anos de atuação no coletivo Pais Pretos Presentes junto a famílias pretas, pobres e periféricas em situação de vulnerabilidade social, percebo algumas inquietações predominantes entre tais famílias, o poder público e os profissionais que mediam essa relação. O que é a paternidade? Como se comunicar com filhos adolescentes? O cuidado tem gênero? Do que as famílias precisam? Como interromper o ciclo de reprodução de preconceitos, julgamentos e padrões socialmente impostos nas famílias? Como se qualificar para a adoção? De quais formas a violência doméstica pode ser comba...
A presente obra analisa o trabalho de cuidado informal e familiar, tradicionalmente realizado por mulheres, nos âmbitos social e jurídico. As discussões apresentadas são fruto da pesquisa de mestrado da autora e se baseiam na crítica feminista ao modelo social da deficiência, buscando uma perspectiva interseccional de análise dos marcadores sociais de diferenças e desigualdades, em consonância com o Direito e as Teorias de Justiça. Nesse sentido, foram realizadas entrevistas com mulheres responsáveis pelo cuidado familiar de pessoas com deficiência, em conjunto com referências acadêmicas e teórico-metodológicas. Em especial, as teóricas críticas feministas foram fundamentai...
Entre março de 2020 e março de 2021, Estado e sociedade enfrentaram a convivência com a pandemia do vírus corona, enquanto continuavam os desafios de interpretação e de aplicação do Direito. As instituições precisaram se articular para colmatar as questões ligadas a problemas cotidianos, como as contradições do sistema penal, e aquelas novas, como a proteção social em meio a novas situações do mercado de trabalho, decorrentes das restrições às atividades econômicas e às liberdades. A proposta deste livro é evocar reflexões jurídicas acerca do tratamento de tais questões, tanto as novas quanto as corriqueiras, na conjuntura da pandemia. E como a realidade das relaç...
This book provides the tools needed to analyse the present and the future of economic regulation.
This book explores the concept of "occupation" in disability well beyond traditional clinical formulations of disability: it considers disability not in terms of pathology or impairment, but as a range of unique social identities and experiences that are shaped by visible or invisible diagnoses/impairments, socio-cultural perceptions and environmental barriers and offers innovative ideas on how to apply theoretical training to real world contexts. Inspired by disability justice and “Disability Occupy Wall Street / Decolonize Disability” movements in the US and related movements abroad, this book builds on politically engaged critical approaches to disability that intersect occupational t...
My name is David Wong. My best friend is John. Those names are fake. You might want to change yours. You may not want to know about the things you'll read on these pages, about the sauce, about Korrock, about the invasion, and the future. But it's too late. You touched the book. You're in the game. You're under the eye. The only defence is knowledge. You need to read this book, to the end. Even the part about the bratwurst. Why? You'll just have to trust me. Unfortunately for us, if you make the right choice, we'll have a much harder time explaining how to fight off the otherwordly invasion currently threatening to enslave humanity. I'm sorry to have involved you in this, I really am. But as you read about these terrible events and the very dark epoch the world is about to enter as a result, it is crucial you keep one thing in mind: NONE OF THIS IS MY FAULT...
This book examines economic policies utilized within Southeast Europe in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Covering countries both within and outside the European Union, the human and economic cost of the pandemic is calculated using macroeconomic models from a short and longer term perspective. The economic policies used during the pandemic are analyzed, alongside crisis management approaches, to highlight the effectiveness of monetary policy, fiscal policies and potential future economic solutions for the post COVID-19 period. This book aims to provide policy recommendations based on findings from Southeast Europe. It is relevant to researchers and policymakers involved in economic policy and the political economy, as well as anyone interested in the responses to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The onslaught of neoliberalism, austerity measures and cuts, impact of climate change, protracted conflicts and ongoing refugee crisis, rise of far right and populist movements have all negatively impacted on disability. Yet, disabled people and their allies are fighting back and we urgently need to understand how, where and what they are doing, what they feel their challenges are and what their future needs will be. This comprehensive handbook emphasizes the importance of everyday disability activism and how activists across the world bring together a wide range of activism tactics and strategies. It also challenges the activist movements, transnational and emancipatory politics, as well as...
The inside story of the groundbreaking experiment that captured what people think about the life-and-death dilemmas posed by driverless cars. Human drivers don't find themselves facing such moral dilemmas as "should I sacrifice myself by driving off a cliff if that could save the life of a little girl on the road?" Human brains aren't fast enough to make that kind of calculation; the car is over the cliff in a nanosecond. A self-driving car, on the other hand, can compute fast enough to make such a decision--to do whatever humans have programmed it to do. But what should that be? This book investigates how people want driverless cars to decide matters of life and death. In The Car That Knew ...
