Vammaisuuden sukupuolittuneet ja sortavat diskurssit : yhteiskunnallis-diskursiivinen näkökulma vammaisuuteen

2007

Väitöstyössään Marjo-Riitta Reinikainen tutkii kriittisellä otteella tavanomaista arkista puhetta vammaisuudesta. Huomion kohteena ovat vammaisuudelle ja vammaisena olemiselle teksteissä annetut merkitykset, erityisesti näiden sukupuolittuneet sekä vammaisten sortoa ja syrjintää tuottavat ja ylläpitävät muodot. Reinikaisen tutkimissa teksteissä vammainen mies kuvataan usein oletettujen positiivisten ominaisuuksiensa, kykyjensä ja saavutustensa kautta, kun taas vammainen nainen kuvataan pikemminkin menetystensä ja puutteidensa kautta. – Kun vammaispuhetta tarkastellaan sukupuolinäkökulmasta, käsitykset vammaisuudesta ja vammaisena olemisesta näyttäytyvät selvästi sukupuolittuneina. Tosin san…

Bezpieczeństwo socjalne jako element polityki społecznej samorządu terytorialnego w Niemczech

2018

Samorząd terytorialny w Niemczech jest jedną z najważniejszych części administracji publicznej w Niemczech, jest praktycznie jego podstawą. Posiada szeroko zakreśloną gwarancję konstytucyjną i równie rozległą autonomię. Prawo do samorządności mają nie tylko gminy, powiaty, związki gmin i okręgi w Bawarii, które posiadają pełną demokratyczną legitymizację opartą na głosowaniu obywateli, ale również i takich podmiotach, które nie mają tego typu demokratycznego umocowania. Do nich zalicza się specjalne formy samorządności terytorialnej - związki komunalne wyższego rzędu. Jednym z zadań realizowanych przez samorząd terytorialny w Niemczech jest polityka społeczna. Władze samorządowe, opierając …
