Esta obra parte de la necesidad de buscar formas de conocimiento en las políticas públicas, específicamente en la evaluación de políticas y programas. Desde un inicio, el enfoque eurocéntrico desarrollista se impuso como el único camino para alcanzar el desarrollo de las sociedades y con ello culminar un proyecto civilizatorio occidentalizado. No obstante, las diferencias socioculturales en el mundo demostraron que el modelo importado por Estados Unidos y Europa era insuficiente para Asia, África, América Latina y el Caribe. Es así que replanteamos el método del conocimiento dentro de las políticas públicas, sus cimientos, pilares y alcances. A partir de las experiencias de análisis de políticas públicas y, en específico, de la evaluación de programas y políticas públicas, decidimos extrapolar la pretensión de conocimiento al momento más abstracto: la epistemología. Es en este nivel que reconsideramos los porqués del inicio y paraqués de los fines de la acción pública. Pretendemos descolonizar/decolonizar la evaluación de los programas y las políticas públicas.
The World Justice Project (WJP) joins efforts to produce reliable data on rule of law through the WJP Rule of Law Index 2016, the sixth report in an annual series, which measures rule of law based on the experiences and perceptions of the general public and in-country experts worldwide.

Why are interpreters an important part of modern healthcare provision? In today's society, there is an increasing need for mental health professionals to work with interpreters, yet coverage of this subject in the existing literature is scarce. Working with Interpreters in Mental Health gives an insight into the issues and problems of professionals working with interpreters in the mental health field. Informed by theoretical, research and practice considerations, Working with Interpreters in Mental Health helps practitioners to develop better ways of helping service users who need an interpreter. Combining contributions from a number of different disciplines, this book discusses: * interpreters in medical consultations * issues of language provision in health care services * the application of theoretical frameworks to the work with interpreters * the work of interpreters in a variety of practical settings. Whilst the focus the placed within a mental health context, many of the issues raised apply equally to other context where interpreters are needed. This book will be invaluable for practitioners of psychology, psychiatry, social work and other health professionals.
