France After the Liberation: The Labour Movement, the Employers and the Political Leaders in Their Struggle with the Social Movement
2018
The French defeat in the spring of 1940 and the ensuing German occupation, as well as the establishment of the authoritarian Vichy regime, made it theoretically impossible for social movements to emerge; that is to say, to allow the development of mobilisation(s) and challenge(s) to authority within companies and/or against any aspect of government policy. However, in the summer of 1940 and a fortiori from 1941 onwards, resistance movements were born precisely because of their ability to convey the discontent of the French society and to use its momentum. In this sense, the French Resistance undoubtedly was a social movement, whose members were leading a ‘normal’ life as civilians under occ…
Jóvenes transitando a la educación posobligatoria: el reflejo de la injusticia hermenéutica en sus discursos
2020
Los factores que influyen en las elecciones de los jóvenes a la hora de transitar de la etapa educativa obligatoria a la posobligatoria han sido ampliamente estudiados. La confluencia de factores estructurales y de agencia en las transiciones escolares ha sido probada. Sin embargo, estos resultados no necesariamente reflejan la conciencia que los jóvenes tienen de dichos condicionantes, así como la medida en que consideran que estos les afectan. Sostiene Miranda Fricker (2017) que cuando una grieta en los recursos de interpretación colectivos hace que una o varias personas se encuentren en posición de desventaja con respecto a la comprensión de sus propias experiencias sociales, está tenien…
Amanda Boetzkes, Plastic Capitalism: Contemporary Art and the Drive to Waste
2020
L’ecologie s’est aujourd’hui imposee dans la plupart des spheres de la vie publique et intellectuelle, a tel point qu’elle apparait comme une des principales cles d’analyse du contemporain. Amanda Boetzkes s’en saisit dans un ouvrage qui cherche a comprendre la maniere dont les artistes utilisent, comprennent et donnent a voir le dechet. Apres son apparition sous sa forme contemporaine avec la revolution industrielle, le dechet est pendant longtemps relegue loin des villes et des consciences,...
Neighborhood Characteristics, Alcohol Outlet Density, and Alcohol-Related Calls-for-Service: A Spatiotemporal Analysis in a Wet Drinking Country
2017
Alcohol outlets have been associated with different social problems, such as crime, violence, intimate partner violence, and child maltreatment. The spatial analysis of neighborhood availability of alcohol outlets is key for better understanding of these influences. Most studies on the spatial distribution of alcohol outlets in the community have been conducted in U.S. cities, but few studies have assessed this spatial distribution in other countries where the drinking culture may differ. The aim of this study was to analyze the spatiotemporal distribution of alcohol outlets in the city of Valencia, Spain, and its relationship with neighborhood-level characteristics, as well as to examine t…
Iniuria Migrandi: Criminalization of Immigrants and the Basic Principles of the Criminal Law
2013
In questo articolo mi propongo di effettuare una valutazione normativa, dal punto di vista di una teoria del diritto penale orientata secondo principi, delle norme che incriminano l'immigrazione irregolare. L'interrogativo generale sul quale mi soffermerò è questo: che modo di usare il diritto penale è implicato nella emanazione di simili norme? La mia tesi è, in sintesi, che si tratta di un vero e proprio abuso del diritto penale. In almeno due sensi: primo, nel senso che, criminalizzando l'immigrazione irregolare, il diritto penale bandisce (categorie di) persone, e non atti/omissioni, facendo qualcosa che un diritto penale rispettoso di alcuni principi liberali fondamentali non dovrebbe …
The Differentiation and Promotion of Students’ Rights in Portugal
2009
This investigation includes a differential study (Study 1) and a quasi-experimental research (Study 2). In Study 1, the objective was to establish to what extent students’ rights existed and analyse the differentiation between students’ rights with Portuguese and immigrant mothers, throughout school years. The sample consisted of 537 students with Portuguese and immigrant mothers, distributed by different school years (7th, 9th and 11th grades). The Children’s Rights Scale (Hart et al., 1996; Veiga, 2001) was used. In Study 2, the purpose was to analyse the effects on students’ rights of the use by teachers of a communicational intervention program, supervised by school psychologists. The s…
Access to Justice or Access to States Courtss Justice in Europe? The Directive 2008/52/EC on Civil and Commercial Mediation
2013
Modern societies are very much linked to the idea of litigation. A hidden rule seems to exist in the sense that the more advanced a society is the highest level of litigation it suffers. This increase in the level of litigation amounts to a sort of “litigation explosion” that has traditionally been linked to State courts. This explosion is said to put the whole judiciary system under pressure in so far the volume of disputes brought before State courts increases, the proceedings become more and more lengthy and the costs incurred in such proceedings also augment. The goal to tackle this explosion underpins most of the reforms that modern national civil procedure laws have suffered in many c…
Arbitraje para conflictos ambientales: una aproximación desde los Derechos Humanos
2020
En la confrontación entre la actividad empresarial y la protección del medio ambiente, pueden producirse daños sobre los derechos fundamentales. Desde una perspectiva de derechos humanos, el arbitraje puede desempeñar un rol importante como mecanismo que puede reducir las barreras de acceso a la justicia para las víctimas de estos conflictos y conseguir una reparación justa para ellas. El objetivo de este artículo es examinar cuáles deben ser los elementos para establecer un adecuado sistema de arbitrabilidad para la reparación del daño derivado de disputas medioambientales. Para ello, la autora se centra en las recientemente aprobadas Reglas de La Haya en Materia de Empresas y Derechos Hum…
ARBITRATION AND ADR, COMPONENTS OF THE NEW PARADIGM OF THE JUSTICE IN THE MODERNITY
2018
Arbitration is a piece of the new conception of Justice. The legislators have changed the rules of arbitration and there is a sort of uniform Act of global arbitration. CNUDMI Act is the protagonist of this metamorphosis. With some contractual and jurisdictional elements arbitration is arbitration and this is its real legal nature. Two fundamental elements constitute its essence. The freedom and autonomy of the parties, on the one side, and the exercise of the function of the arbitrators and its effects, on the other. There is not arbitration without them.
Hacia una pedagogía de la diversidad o la exigencia de repensar el carácter inclusivo de la escuela
2008
Desde la perspectiva de entender la educación de la ciudadanía como un instrumento al servicio de la convivencia democrática, este artículo se aproxima al análisis de uno de los desafíos educativos fundamentales de las sociedades del tercer milenio: la búsqueda de un adecuado equilibrio entre la sólida formación de las identidades y la gestión democrática de la diversidad. La realidad pluricultural y compleja de las sociedades actuales exige de los profesionales de la educación una reflexión fundamentada sobre los principios básicos de la llamada "pedagogía de la diversidad" y repensar aquellos parámetros de cambio que conviertan la escuela en un escenario de inclusión. El aprendizaje de lo…
