Intellectual and Psychosocial Disability as Situations of Vulnerability
2021
La garantía de los derechos de las personas con discapacidad intelectual y psicosocial pone a prueba a la teoría de los derechos y al modelo social de la discapacidad. En el trabajo se mantiene que el análisis de la discapacidad desde la teoría de la opresión continúa siendo adecuado siempre que se recupere la importancia de la dimensión individual de la discapacidad y se incorpore la representación de la condición humana que deriva de una concepción contemporánea de los derechos y que a su vez es el resultado de la revisión del proyecto de la modernidad desde las teorías críticas. The guarantee of the rights of persons with intellectual and psychosocial disabilities challenges both, the th…
Lo sviluppo resiliente. Diritti umani, inclusione ed esclusione differenziale nelle politiche di capacity development
2019
The relationship between concepts such as resilience, capacity development, empowerment and poverty reduction, and their corresponding practices, works as a matrix of neoliberal subjectivation processes involving both men and women on a global level. In the framework of the human resilience paradigm, the concepts and political practices of development have taken on a particularly strategic value and conceptual meaning, and are producing unexpected effects in term of inclusion, exclusion, abandonment, and exploitation. Analysing capacity development policies as relates to resilience allows us to observe how Governmentality regulates the life and death of people on the global scene of the lat…
Protection of Social Rights as a Permament Challenge for the European Union
2021
Social rights protection in the European Union has undergone significant development. Currently their protection is regulated by relevant treaty provisions and the Charter of Fundamental Rights (Charter), both of a primary law nature, as well as by the non-binding European Pillar of Social Rights (Pillar). The aim of the paper is the assessment of the social rights protection in the EU, and whether all social rights provided in the CFR have their counterparts in the EPSR, hence whether and in what way the EPSR assists the actual exercise of social rights provided by the CFR. Comparing the content of the above-mentioned legal instruments makes it possible to answer the question whether all s…
Diritti dei bambini, diritti delle famiglie. Promuovere e formare le “capacità” genitoriali
2020
The paper focuses on the reasons for the link between children's rights and family rights, in order to highlight that parenting educational competences are challenging risk factor in contexts of poverty and always decisive factor for the actual promotion of the rights of children and adolescents. More precisely, firstly the passages of of the Convention in which the necessity of the family is argued as primary context of children's rights. Secondly, it will be problematized the very idea of children's rights in the light of the "capability approach". On this basis, it will be asked whether, from a pedagogical point of view, the family can, as a whole, be the holder of a right to education…
Children’s rights system in the Republic of Latvia in compliance with international law regarding out-of-family care system
2020
Children rights have been defined in international and domestic legal systems. Despite the ongoing development of children’s rights, it is still a relatively new legal subset of human rights. So far, under the United Nation Convention on the Rights of the Child, there has been the establishment of international and regional legal acts concerning the rights of the child. As a party to different international and regional legal acts, the Republic of Latvia has to undertake obligations to respect and ensure children’s rights in its jurisdiction. However, the necessity to examine international law before domestic legal acts of the Republic of Latvia is to allege full comprehension of a sense of…
El derecho de autonomia del paciente menor: Virtualidad de la mediacion en conflictos sanitarios con menores
2017
La Ley 41/2002, de 14 de noviembre reconoce el derecho a la autonomía del paciente en el ámbito sanitario, configurado como un derecho subjetivo en el marco de los derechos de la personalidad. Recientemente, las Leyes Orgánica 8/2015, de 22 de julio y Ley 26/2015 de 28 de julio han introducido importantes reformas en la consideración de la madurez de los menores para decidir determinados actuaciones que afectan a su persona, confiriendo a sus progenitores la facultad de consentir intervenciones sanitarias que puedan suponer grave riesgo para su vida o salud. Regulación ésta que plantea ciertos interrogantes a la hora de ofrecer soluciones a ciertos conflictos familiares y sanitarios que se …
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…
