Museums as Disseminators of Niche Knowledge
2019
Accessibility has been facing several challenges within Audiovisual Translation Studies and has also gained great opportunities for its establishment as a methodologically and theoretically well-founded discipline. Audiovisual translation modes have achieved a crucial role in the transmission of what scholarly studies have discussed in relation to media accessibility as a set of services and practices providing access to audiovisual media content for persons with sensory impairment. Today accessibility has become a concept involving more and more universality, since it is extensively contributing to the dissemination of audiovisual and visual products about issues on minorities, and also ad…
The Future Of Mutual Assistance Conventions In The European Union
2010
The European Union, keeping to the traditional principles of conventional international law, dealt with judicial assistance within the framework provided by the Third Pillar, at first rather timidly through its new normative instruments; and then more effectively through the traditional route of conventions. The two main aims of the EU Convention 2000 are, on the one hand, 'ensuring that mutual assistance between Member States is provided in a fast and efficient manner'; 29 and on the other, guaranteeing that this is done in a way that is: 'compatible with the basic principles of their national law and in compliance with the individual rights and principles of the European Convention for th…
Teacher training for Primary School defending diversity and inclusion. Memory of a case of teaching experience through Museari
2020
Entre las posibilidades de la educación artística conviene destacar las cuestiones de reivindicación social, especialmente la lucha por la equidad y el respeto hacia las minorías. Dentro de esta corriente socializadora se enmarcan los avances en materia de género y diversidad. La lucha por los derechos humanos se convierte así en un lugar común desde el cual implementar políticas culturales e innovaciones educativas. Estamos trabajando en esta línea desde hace tres décadas, conscientes de la necesidad de implicarnos en los avances que promueven la convivencia y el equilibrio social. Hace cinco años creamos el museo online Museari para desarrollar proyectos y mejorar la situación de los cole…

Benedykt XVI o terroryzmie
2019
BENEDICT XVI ON TERRORISMIn Benedict XVI’s reflection on terrorist acts an unequivocally negative attitude towards them appears, regardless of the motives behind the armed actions. In this rather difficult problem for his contemporaries, he studied the premises responsible for the escalation of aggression and violence in various parts of the world, as well as their consequences for individual states and societies. The sources of acts of terror in the current reality were found in ideologies of extreme religious, as well as religious or even anti-religious backgrounds, of which ardent supporters try to impose by force or propaganda their dictatorship on certain social communities or office h…
Care research and disability studies: Nothing in common?
2009
Disability researchers have voiced the criticism that the concept of care, together with research based on it, consists of the view that disabled people are dependent non-autonomous second-class citizens. The perspectives of disability studies and care research certainly are different from each other. Disability studies analyse the oppression and exclusion of disabled people and emphasize that disabled people need human rights and control over their own lives. Care research focuses rather on care relationships, informal and formal care, care-giving work and `an ethics of care'. Nevertheless, it is suggested here that the two perspectives are not mutually exclusive and that the two groups co…
The taint of torture and the brazilian legal system
2019
In Brazil, the practice of torture intertwines deeply with its own history. The literature on the subject has had a greater intensification on its registers during the Dictatorial Regime (1964 to 1985). In spite of the Brazilian Constitution of 1988, Brazil only makes efforts to investigate the crimes of torture of this period to comply with the provisions of the United Nations in 2011. Within this scenario, the NationalTruth Commission (Law 12.528, of November 2011) was created with the purpose of clarifying the facts and circumstances of cases concerning human rights violations, as well as the Law on Access to Information (Law 12.527 of November 2011), which have regulated the constitutio…

Educar para la salud en tiempos de pandemia
2021
La experiencia de la pandemia que estamos viviendo exige repensar la educación para la salud. En este trabajo lo hacemos a partir de dos conceptos procedentes de la Declaración Universal de los Derecho Humanos: primero, entender que el fin de la educación es el pleno desarrollo de la persona; y segundo, que los deberes para con la comunidad contribuyen a ese desarrollo. A partir de ellos, defendemos una concepción de la educación para la salud basada en el carácter relacional del ser humano, en la relevancia de los determinantes sociales de la salud y en los peligros del entorno digital, a pesar de los enormes beneficios que ha aportado durante la pandemia.
