The Development, Conceptualisation and Implementation of Quality in Disability Support Services
Social services for people with disabilities have undergone substantial changes over time, in particular in the past two decades. Whilst lack of affordable and appropriate housing is a barrier to community living for many people with disabilities, it is only one part of the jigsaw. This book traces some of these changes, in particular related to living situation and support available, in a range of different countries and considers the factors that have influenced these changes. This book considers other aspects of what is needed to bring about real change in the lives of all people with disabilities.
Toward Inclusion and Social Justice in Institutional Translation and Interpreting
This collection re-envisions the academic study of institutional translation and interpreting (ITI), revealing oppression in established institutional spaces toward challenging existing policies and the myths which inhibit critical inquiry within the field. ITI is broadly conceived here as translation and interpreting delivered in or for specific institutions, understood as social systems and spanning national, supranational, and international organizations as well as immigration detention centers, prisons, and national courts. The volume is organized around three parts, which explore ITI spaces and practices revealing oppressive practices, dispelling myths regarding translation and interpre...
De integratief-holistische orthopedagogiek van Professor Eric Broeckaert
Dit boek is opgedragen aan en belicht het levenswerk van prof. dr. Eric Broekaert (1951-2016), die gedurende zijn hele loopbaan verbonden is geweest aan de Vakgroep Orthopedagogiek van de Universiteit Gent. Het is geen ‘klasssiek’ liber amicorum geworden, maar een boek waarin een aantal belangrijke (in het Nederlands vertaalde) peer-reviewed artikelen van de hand van prof. Broekaert werden verzameld. Deze teksten geven een goed beeld van de achtergronden en evoluties in het denken van prof. Broekaert met betrekking tot de theoretische orthopedagogiek en meer specifiek met betrekking tot zijn integratief-holistische benadering van de handelingsorthopedagogiek. Daarnaast leiden een aantal hoofdstukken, geschreven door medewerkers van de Vakgroep Orthopedagogiek en jarenlange collega’s van prof. Broekaert, het boek in en uit. Het boek is relevant voor iedereen die in orthopedagogische theorievorming én ondersteuning is geïnteresseerd. Volgens de integratiefholistische benadering van prof. Broekaert zijn deze twee elementen (theorie en praktijk) immers delen van hetzelfde geheel.
Sterke verhalen
Dit boek is het resultaat van twee projecten. Een eerste project was erop gericht om gedurende vijf jaar (2014-2019) met elf onderzoekers uit drie faculteiten van de Universiteit Gent wetenschappelijk onderzoek te verrichten om sterktegerichte strategieën te ontwikkelen voor mensen onder een interneringsstatuut en hun familie. In het onderzoeksproject stond wat zij als mensen kunnen en willen centraal, eerder dan waar zij niet toe in staat zijn of welk risico zij zouden kunnen betekenen. Een tweede project werd uitgewerkt door Natalie Aga en Lieven Nollet. Zij vonden elkaar in een idee voor een bijzonder fotoproject rond mensen onder een interneringsstatuut en hun familie. Geboeid door een ...
Children at the Borders
In the wake of a steady flow of child migrants attempting to cross borders and states’ efforts to restrict immigration, various public controversies have arisen about the rights of asylum-seeking children. The ‘moral gap’ between the outcome of democratically enacted laws and the aim of controlling immigration, on the one hand, and public calls to protect the universal rights of asylum seeking children, on the other, have created a political challenge for Western democracies. This thesis sets out to examine two particular settings in which norms about the rights of asylum-seeking children and immigration control have been established and contested over the years: the Swedish Migration ...
The Rights of the Child
How can human rights for children born outside their national jurisdiction with parents deemed as terrorists be safeguarded? In what ways do children risk being discriminated in their welfare rights in Sweden when treated as invisible part of a family? How can we do research on children’s rights in not just ethically sensitive ways but also with respect for children as rights subjects? And what could be a theory on social justice for children? These are questions discussed in studies from different disciplines concerning children’s international human rights, with a special focus on the realization of the CRC in Sweden.
Subjectivity, Citizenship and Belonging in Law
This collection of articles critically examines legal subjectivity and ideas of citizenship inherent in legal thought. The chapters offer a novel perspective on current debates in this area by exploring the connections between public and political issues as they intersect with more intimate sets of relations and private identities. Covering issues as diverse as autonomy, vulnerability and care, family and work, immigration control, the institution of speech, and the electorate and the right to vote, they provide a broader canvas upon which to comprehend more complex notions of citizenship, personhood, identity and belonging in law, in their various ramifications.
Addiction Recovery
This doctoral study focuses on a relational approach to recovery as an addition to the dominant individualized interpretations of addiction recovery. It explores the (enabling or disabling) role of social networks and broader societal contexts in which recovery processes are embedded, without disregarding the deeply personal nature of addiction recovery in terms of building a meaningful life. This dissertation is based on the Recovery Pathways (REC-PATH) research project, a longitudinal and multi-country cohort study designed to map pathways to drug addiction recovery. Rooted in the policy, quantitative and qualitative research phases of the REC-PATH project, this study uncovers contextual d...
