Masteroppgave Global development and planning UT506 - Universitetet i Agder 2019 In the post-conflict situation that defines Colombia,SPK works to raise women’s awareness (or works to make women conscious) of their own potential tocontribute to local politics.This paper examinesthe meanings of peacework in all it’s shapes and forms, but also how this work is connected to a victim identity. Inspired by Dorothy Smith and institutional ethnography Iexamine what can control the work in the organization, with a particular eye on the role of financial supporters. Words as «empowerment» and «peace builder» are used both in SPK, but also in the general discourse around women and peace. The gender a…
Influence of gender bias in the diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder: a review
2018
Resumen La prevalencia del trastorno de espectro autista (TEA) se ha incrementado en los últimos años, en parte debido a las mejoras de los métodos de detección y en parte a las modificaciones en la definición que se han ido incorporando a los manuales diagnósticos. Este incremento ha provocado que el índice de prevalencia por género sea en la actualidad de un 1,4/1, según algunos autores, o hasta de un 15,7/1 según otros, con un número muy superior de varones que reciben el diagnóstico en comparación con el número de mujeres que lo reciben. Las distintas explicaciones que se han dado a esta cuestión apuntan a unas determinadas diferencias de género en las manifestaciones sintomáticas del t…
Sévices maritaux et divorce (XIII - XVIII siècle)
2022
La violence exercée sur autrui dans le but de dresser, d’éduquer, de corriger ou de punir englobe des pratiques très anciennes (coups, fouet, privations, enfermement) et d’autres plus caractéristiques d’une époque, comme le bonnet d’âne dans l’école de la Troisième République. Certaines, comme la gifle et la fessée, semblent si banales qu’on ne les perçoit pas d’emblée comme des objets d’histoire. Jusqu’à ces dernières décennies, cette violence infligée dans le cadre de la maisonnée, distincte et complémentaire de la violence de l’État, n’était contestée que lorsqu’elle était manifestement excessive. Le « droit de correction » était considéré comme un pilier de l’ordre social, exprimant l’a…
Microfinance and women empowerment : to what extent has access to loans led to a change in gender responsibilities at the household level: a case stu…
2014
Master thesis in development management - University of Agder 2014 Microfinance has been recognized internationally as a great strategy in promoting women’s empowerment. Currently development practitioners, international donors, policy makers, Governments, and Non-governmental organizations have introduced microfinance programs to reach out with financial services to the low-income earners, especially women. This is based on the conception that women have better repayment records and also if credit is placed in women’s hands, it leads to improvement in the wellbeing of entire household. This study therefore aimed at assessing the extent to which access to loans by women can lead to a change…
Study of the Contribution of Research into Women Entrepreneurship : A Meta-analysis of Discourses in the Literature using ATLAS.ti
2015
Abstract: In this paper, we have analyzed how existing literature contributes to women entrepreneurship research in terms of theoretical, methodological and practical ways of understanding. Based on relevant contents and discourses, a main line within the trend of development can be seen as women entrepreneurship shifting from a marginalized discipline to a more multi-dimensional research concept. Certain representative issues evoke development or are even being left as “atheoretical” at some point; the “alternative” angle is accordingly significant for an in-depth exploration through the relevant materials. The literature resources are chosen with close attention to the keywords “women ent…
Making sense of women entrepreneurship research : a qualitative meta-analytical review
2016
In this study, we explore how extant literature contributes to the development in women entrepreneurship research in terms of both theoretical and practical perspectives. Accordingly, an ostensible tendency can be seen as women entrepreneurship shifting from a marginalized discipline to a mainstream concept concerning more multi-dimensional attributes. Gender has been used as a lens into studies and it is understood as a socially-constructed process – to simply conduct comparative analysis between sexes cannot lead to more fruitful research results – women entrepreneurs needs a medium to undergo their significant contributions and important roles. Literature materials are chosen with the ke…

Einige Bemerkungen zur Emanzipation des Frauenbildes in der deutschen und polnischen Phraseologie
2019
Phrasemes reflect habits and customs, traditions, historical facts, social life phenomena and cultural values of a given society. Phrasemes often “live” longer than the image they reflect. Women were and still are a subject of phrasemes. The aim of this paper is an answer to the question if the image of women arising from the Polish and German phraseology in the face of the transformations taking place in the last 40 years in the society has changed and if new phrasemes describing women of the 21st century appeared.

La reproducció en la vida de les dones. Aportacions de l'antropologia
2012
L’antropologia social i cultural ha estudiat la reproducció des del punt de vista de diverses especialitats –parentiu, simbolisme, feminisme, salut– i ha assenyalat tant les dimensions que comprèn com el caràcter social, construït i central per al manteniment d’una societat. Aquesta mirada permet a les autores suggerir certes hipòtesis a partir de les quals entendre la reproducció com un assumpte vertebrador de la vida de les dones en l’actualidad, que hauria de ser objecte d’estudi rellevant per a la ciència.
