Occupational Therapies without Borders - Volume 2
The companion text to Occupational Therapy without Borders - Volume 1: learning from the spirit of survivors! In this landmark text writers from around the world discuss a plurality of occupation-based approaches that explicitly acknowledge the full potential of the art and science of occupational therapy. The profession is presented as a political possibilities-based practice, concerned with what matters most to people in real life contexts, generating practice-based evidence to complement evidence-based practice. As these writers demonstrate, occupational therapies are far more than, as some critical views have suggested, a monoculture of practice rooted in Western modernity. Nobel Peace L...
Autism in Translation
Autism is a complex phenomenon that is both individual and social. Showing both robust similarities and intriguing differences across cultural contexts, the autism spectrum raises innumerable questions about self, subjectivity, and society in a globalized world. Yet it is often misrepresented as a problem of broken bodies and disordered brains. So, in 2015, a group of interdisciplinary scholars gathered in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil for an intellectual experiment: a workshop that joined approaches from psychological anthropology to the South American tradition of Collective Health in order to consider autism within social, historical, and political settings. This book is the product of the ongoi...

Terapia ocupacional social
Este livro reúne reflexões em torno de pressupostos teóricos e de proposições práticas emanadas daquilo que se constituiu como a Terapia Ocupacional Social no Brasil. São trazidos ensaios que transitam por distintas percepções teóricas e formulações práticas, evidenciando a pluralidade temática e epistemológica que atualmente caracteriza os estudos nesse campo. Também, são apresentados temas contemporâneos que têm interpelado a terapia ocupacional social, ganhando a cena para discutir relevância social, conhecimento acadêmico e atuação terapêutico-ocupacional, como as juventudes, em geral pobre, negra e periférica, o trabalho territorial, a escola pública, o ato infracional, as drogas, a circulação e a mobilidade urbana, os gêneros e as sexualidades dissidentes, as redes sociais e as (in)visibilidades.

O campo acadêmico da educação especial no Brasil
Este livro aborda a origem, constituição e expansão do campo acadêmico da Educação Especial no Brasil. Seu principal objetivo é apresentar a Educação Especial como um campo específico que contribui, por meio de seus recursos acadêmicos, para o conhecimento científico, a formação humana e profissional, para as propostas políticas e o desenvolvimento de ações no âmbito educacional e social. O processo de constituição de um campo envolve arranjos complexos, entre eles as ações de agentes que influenciam diretamente em seu surgimento, configuração e desenvolvimento. No caso do campo acadêmico da Educação Especial, seu surgimento foi antecedido pelo campo teórico, marcado por concepções equivocadas e até mesmo desumanas acerca das pessoas com deficiência.
