Margaret A. Simons, Rebel at Heart
2021
Abstract In this interview, Margaret A. Simons describes her path to philosophy and existentialism, her struggles in the male-dominated field in the 1960s and 1970s, and her political activism in the civil rights and women’s liberation movements. She also discusses her encounters with Simone de Beauvoir and Beauvoir’s refusal to own her philosophical originality, suggesting that Beauvoir may have adopted a more conventional narrative of a female intellectual to circumvent the public’s resistance to her radical ideas in the 1950s.
Law, Borders, and Speech Conference: Proceedings and Materials
2017
Tensions between national law and the Internet’s global architecture have existed since the network’s earliest days. They took on new urgency in recent years, with developments like French regulators’ efforts to globally enforce “Right to Be Forgotten” laws. New cases, technologies, and platform responses seem to come along every few months. Expert-level discussion of these issues is dynamic and fast-moving -- but the written literature is only starting to catch up. This volume contributes to that literature by capturing insights from the Stanford Center for Internet and Society’s Law, Borders, and Speech conference. The event honored the twentieth anniversary of David G. Post and David R. …
Justifying Civic Activism in Russia and Finland
2013
ABSTRACTIn this article, we present a novel way of researching civil society in a comparative perspective and illustrate it through a detailed analysis of public disputes concerning urban building construction projects in St. Petersburg and Helsinki in 2008–2009. In our illustration, we use justification theory, a line of thought developed by Luc Boltanski and Laurent Thevenot in the early 1990s, but until now little used in comparative civil society research. Moreover, we use a variant of Public Justification Analysis, a new method for analysing media data. Our focus is on moral justifications, that is, on arguments which are presented against or in favour of the proposed projects and whic…

Reformulando las imágenes del poder en torno a la domesticidad: la educación formal e informal como base de la ciudadanía femenina
2010
Durante la revolución liberal española, la atribución de competencias femeninas en el ámbito de lo doméstico comportó la implementación de una educación diferencial en función del género y ralentizó la incorporación de las niñas en el sistema escolar. Desde esta perspectiva, el presente artículo se propone relacionar los discursos y prácticas de los distintos feminismos hispanos, de la Institución Libre de Enseñanza o del republicanismo respecto a la educación de las mujeres, con las doctrinas institucionales, las legislaciones y las nuevas doctrinas pedagógicas. El objetivo es dar cuenta de la forma en que estos sectores alternativos cuestionaron las normas del poder, modificaron las polít…
Problemática laboral de los socios trabajadores de las empresas de Economía Social: ¿socios o trabajadores?
1999
Co-operatives and labour societies are the most important organisations within the framework of Social Economy. The establishment of these societies, which create employment in the private sector with a democratic philosophy based on mutual help, has been recently boosted thanks to the support of public power. Their growing importance can be explained by three factors: the Employment Policy, the Social Policy and the productive decentralisation. As far as labour is concerned, these societies offer the following advantages: intensive use of labour, high rate of stability in employment, high levels of productivity, training and surplus re-inversion, lower rate of inflation, fewer conflicts th…
Prostitution voluntary or forced. A contribution to the debate
2011
La tesis abolicionista de que nadie puede elegir libremente vender su cuerpo ha sido cuestionada por quienes reclaman el reconocimiento de derechos laborales para los trabajadores del sexo, lo cual ha dado lugar a una encendida polémica sobre el carácter voluntario o forzado de la prostitución. Los testimonios de veintitrés mujeres (incluyendo cinco ex prostitutas), recogidos mediante entrevistas en profundidad, sugieren que todas ellas están situadas en un punto intermedio del continuum que va desde la coerción criminal hasta la opción vocacional. Los pasajes relativos específicamente al itinerario de acceso a este mundo permiten distinguir tres tipos de prostitución en función del grado d…
