Drugs and Social Context

  • Type: Book
  • -
  • Published: 2018-01-31
  • -
  • Publisher: Springer

This book goes beyond the traditional approaches to drug use and discusses the issue from a societal perspective, integrating contributions from different disciplines such as psychology, public health, anthropology, law, public policies and sociology to address specifically the social aspects of the phenomenon. Given its complexity, drug use demands a multidisciplinary approach from many different perspectives, but despite the vast literature about the topic, the majority of the books are restricted either to a purely medical perspective (focused mainly on treatment techniques) or to a criminological perspective (focused mainly on drug trafficking and organized crime). The social approach ad...

Crossing Racial Borders

Crossing Racial Borders: The Epistemic Empowerment of the Subaltern explores critically the racial, socioeconomic, historical, and political contemporary conditions of the lived experiences of the subaltern, the oppressed. Through the lens of the decolonial school of thought developed by Latin American thinkers and scholars, this text focuses on the identification and analysis of the subalterns’ praxis of living, thinking, knowing, and doing. The contributors delve into the subalterns’ agency at work and how their [inter]subjective/reflective actions, gestures, and thoughts are deep-seated in subverting and resisting the material and symbolic coloniality of power's exploitation, categorization, and oppression. Drawing from sociological, anthropological, literary, and historical approaches, a new set of ideas and rationalities uncovers and challenges the complicities of modernity/coloniality (power-pattern-matrix) through new narratives and discursive epistemic-frames of empowerment and agency.

The Routledge Handbook of Architecture, Urban Space and Politics, Volume I

For architecture and urban space to have relevance in the 21st Century, we cannot merely reignite the approaches of thought and design that were operative in the last century. This is despite, or because of, the nexus between politics and space often being theorized as a representation or by-product of politics. As a symbol or an effect, the spatial dimension is depoliticized. Consequently, architecture and the urban are halted from fostering any systematic change as they are secondary to the event and therefore incapable of performing any political role. This handbook explores how architecture and urban space can unsettle the unquestioned construct of the spatial politics of governing. Cons...

Routledge Handbook of Afro-Latin American Studies

This Handbook provides a comprehensive roadmap to the burgeoning area of Afro-Latin American Studies. Afro-Latins as a civilization developed during the period of slavery, obtaining cultural contributions from Indigenous and European worlds, while today they are enriched by new social configurations derived from contemporary migrations from Africa. The essays collected in this volume speak to scientific production that has been promoted in the region from the humanities and social sciences with the aim of understanding the phenomenon of the African diaspora as a specific civilizing element. With contributions from world-leading figures in their fields overseen by an eminent international editorial board, this Handbook features original, authoritative articles organized in four coherent parts: • Disciplinary Studies; • Problem Focused Fields; • Regional and Country Approaches; • Pioneers of Afro-Latin American Studies. The Routledge Handbook of Afro-Latin American Studies will not only serve as the major reference text in the area of Afro-Latin American Studies but will also provide the agenda for future new research.

Routledge Handbook of Latin America and the Environment

The Routledge Handbook of Latin America and the Environment provides an in-depth and accessible analysis and theorization of environmental issues in the region. It will help readers make connections between Latin American and other regions’ perspectives, experiences, and environmental concerns. Latin America has seen an acceleration of environmental degradation due to the expansion of resource extraction and urban areas. This Handbook addresses Latin America not only as an object of study, but also as a region with a long and profound history of critical thinking on these themes. Furthermore, the Handbook departs from most treatments on the topic by studying the environment as a social iss...

Crítica do fascismo

  • Categories: Law

Lançada no mês e no ano em que se completam cem anos da Marcha sobre Roma, fato que simboliza o início do fascismo, a nova obra do jurista Alysson Leandro Mascaro é um estudo do fascismo pelo prisma marxista, em que o autor sistematiza as variadas análises e interpretações sobre o nazifascismo, apontando as diferenças entre as leituras liberais, as voluntaristas e as do marxismo. A proposta é organizar uma teoria geral crítica a respeito desse movimento, com base em um trajeto de reflexões que vem do século XX até os dias de hoje, teoria que se faz necessária diante das contradições capitalistas do presente. Composta de sete capítulos, a obra começa apresentando as teorias ...

Educação Infantil

Este livro trata da escuta de crianças. Uma obra para todos os profissionais que vivenciam a realidade escolar brasileira e os ambientes socioeducativos, e sabem que existem desafios a serem superados para que a escola seja um espaço acolhedor, no qual o ato de escutar, represente uma atitude democrática, conforme defendeu Paulo Freire. Enfrentar o silenciamento é uma urgência. É preciso ler a realidade para transformá-la, e a escuta pedagógica pode contribuir para que ocorram mudanças positivas na sociedade. Assim, esta obra possibilita a compreensão, por parte dos profissionais que atuam junto às crianças, jovens e adultos, de que a escuta é um conhecimento imprescindível para o processo de humanização das relações que se estabelecem entre esses.
