Sociedades inclusivas

En un contexto social que no sea excluyente con las personas que alguien designó como «diferentes» o como «radicalmente diferentes», se deben conjugar elementos que de forma disruptiva den lugar a un nosotros frente a un ellos-y-nosotros. Una sociedad inclusiva no le tiene miedo a la diversidad, y esa es la apuesta de este libro. Pero hablar de sociedades inclusivas, a menudo, puede ser interpretado como un paso hacia una sociedad hiperindividualista. En este contexto, podemos decir que las sociedades inclusivas tienen que ver también con la construcción social de «lo normativo» y con la repercusión que esto tiene sobre las personas.

Sharing the Wisdom of Time

Christmas Day 2021 sees the release of a Netflix series, Stories of a Generation with Pope Francis, based on this book. Pope Francis views elders as reservoirs of wisdom and historical memory and believes their insights will offer future generations much-needed understanding and direction. More than 250 people were interviewed and Loyola Press sent a collection of stories to the Vatican. These encompassed universal themes of love, loss, survival, hope, peace in the face of unimaginable tragedy, and above all, faith. Pope Francis received every story, prayed over them, and responded with sensitivity and grace to 31 of the stories and the issues they raise. In his Preface, Pope Francis lays out his reasons for this collection of wisdom stories and the movement he hopes it inspires. He also contributes as a fellow elder, offering a story from his own life at the start of each chapter . And in his own wise and compassionate way, he serves as a spiritual shepherd, commenting on dozens of heartfelt stories.

Mujer, educación e inclusión laboral

Este libro está destinado a destapar algunos mecanismos que dificultan que las mujeres puedan conseguir la igualdad real que reivindican como cuestión de justicia. Impedimentos costosos de detectar, porque, con frecuencia, van más allá de las leyes, decretos y circulares que emanan de distintas administraciones. Trabas que se introducen en el lugar más difícil de penetrar, la propia conciencia de los hombres y mujeres, sometida durante años a la recepción de mensajes que invitan a la consideración de espacios, actitudes, gustos, expectativas... desiguales para uno y otro sexo, fruto de una socialización diferenciada. Discursos, verbales o icónicos, que los invitan a crear identida...

REDD+ must be transformational. REDD+ requires broad institutional and governance reforms, such as tenure, decentralisation, and corruption control. These reforms will enable departures from business as usual, and involve communities and forest users in making and implementing policies that a ect them. Policies must go beyond forestry. REDD+ strategies must include policies outside the forestry sector narrowly de ned, such as agriculture and energy, and better coordinate across sectors to deal with non-forest drivers of deforestation and degradation. Performance-based payments are key, yet limited. Payments based on performance directly incentivise and compensate forest owners and users. B...

'NDiaye is a hypnotic storyteller with an unflinching understanding of the rock-bottom reality of most people's life.' New York Times ' One of France's most exciting prose stylists.' The Guardian. Obsessed by her encounters with the mysterious green women, and haunted by the Garonne River, a nameless narrator seeks them out in La Roele, Paris, Marseille, and Ouagadougou. Each encounter reveals different aspects of the women; real or imagined, dead or alive, seductive or suicidal, driving the narrator deeper into her obsession, in this unsettling exploration of identity, memory and paranoia. Self Portrait in Green is the multi-prize winning, Marie NDiaye's brilliant subversion of the memoir. Written in diary entries, with lyrical prose and dreamlike imagery, we start with and return to the river, which mirrors the narrative by posing more questions than it answers.

  • Publisher: IGI Global

Women in the Academy are raising issues of pay parity, equal representation on committees, increased leadership positions, stories of resilience, and mentorship espousing changes at all levels including teaching, research, and administration. These strategies demand interrogation, and larger questions are being asked about the place of women empowerment worldviews in the dominant intellectual traditions of the Academy. Further, the trend to make changes requires an exploration of new transformational approaches that draw on critical theory to resist discrimination, sexism, and racism and support resistance and sustainable empowerment strategies. Critical Reflections and Politics on Advancing...
