‘Then we were ready to be radicals!’ : school student activism in Finnish upper secondary schools in 1960–1967
2021
In the Western countries, Scandinavia and Finland included, the legacy of the student movement of the 1960s has been extensive and established a fixed narrative of a radical movement. This article challenges the elitists and university-centred grand narrative and argues that the student movement was more multifaceted and mobilized young people of various ages and backgrounds. This is done by addressing the international student movement from the perspective of school-aged students in Finnish upper secondary schools, focusing on student activism carried out in school-sanctioned student associations. Above all, this article aims to distinguish the relatively unknown history of the Scandinavia…
REDES Y (CIBER)FEMINISMOS. La revolución de la representación que derivó en alianza
2018
Propongo reflexionar sobre cómo los énfasis ciberfeministas han ido cambiando en las últimas décadas paralelamente a las transformaciones sociales derivadas de la construcción de un mundo en red. Valorando que hoy los mayores logros y movilizaciones no han venido de las “formas de representación” poscuerpo como sugería el primer ciberfeminismo, sino de la potencia de la alianza feminista en Internet. Para indagar en este escenario reciente, sugiero cinco puntos de entrada al ciberfeminismo y sus lecturas sobre representación y alianza destacando en todos ellos la influencia que el activismo artístico ha tenido. Comenzaré situando algunos “modos de hacer” que caracterizaron la primera época.…
Swarming : An Investigation Practice Supporting a Bottom-up Ecological Transition
2022
Dans cet article, nous rendons compte des pratiques d’essaimage d’initiatives locales de transition portées par des collectifs citoyens et associatifs en région Bourgogne Franche-Comté. L’essaimage, défini comme une façon d’enquêter pour agir, caractérise un « activisme environnemental du faire » qui se structure de manière réticulaire et translocale. Ces multiples initiatives qui font des gestes du quotidien un levier de transformation écologique s’activent avec ou sans les institutions territoriales. Celles-ci, indépendamment de l’écho qu’elles renvoient à ces expérimentations, sont interpellées dans leur manière de concevoir l’action publique sous contrainte écologique forte.
JUDGE IMPARTIALITY IN COMPREHENSIVE JUDICIAL DEVELOPMENT
2012
General human rights instruments guarantee the right to a fair trial before independent and impartial court. International and national legislation explicitly provides that the court should be impartial. But how can we understand that the court is impartial? Should there be an objective decision or should there be impartial decision-making process? Nowadays we often think about how it is possible to ensure judicial impartiality. How an impartial court may exist in democratic society, and whether a society should have any criteria of judicial impartiality to ensure that the public trusts the courts and judges. The aim of the court’s decision is not only to achieve an equitable settlement of …
Museums as disseminators of niche knowledge: Universality in accessibility for all
2019
Accessibility has faced several challenges within audiovisual translation Studies and gained great opportunities for its establishment as a methodologically and theoretically well-founded discipline. Initially conceived as a set of services and practices that provides access to audiovisual media content for persons with sensory impairment, today accessibility can be viewed as a concept involving more and more universality thanks to its contribution to the dissemination of audiovisual products on the topic of marginalisation. Against this theoretical backdrop, accessibility is scrutinised from the perspective of aesthetics of migration and minorities within the field of the visual arts in mu…
La politica per le donne : Nilde Iotti e l’impegno per l’emancipazione femminile
2021
The contribution aims to retrace some particularly significant moments of the commitment of Nilde Iotti in promoting women’s rights. Iotti, a founding mother of the Republic and prominent figure of the Italian Communist Party (PCI), fought for the democratization of Italian society through women’s emancipation. This essay focuses on Iotti’s public role and political action from the election to the Constituent Assembly (1946) until the late Seventies. In 1979, indeed, Nilde Iotti - the “Lady of the Republic” – was elected President of the Chamber, as a result of a life devoted to political engagement. In particular, the focus of the essay is on Iotti’s major effort in supporting family trans…
Le parti des travailleurs brésilien : de son émergence à la conquête du Planalto (1979 - 2002)
2016
The Brazilian Workers’ Party (PT) is an outstanding experience of a left-wing mass party. When it was born in 1980, many people wondered about its nature. In 2002, when Lula became the President of Brazil, this question did not deserve the same answer. The PT became bureaucratic, institutional and professional, experiencing a sort of accelerated Social-Democratization. As its starting point, this study takes the specificities of labour movement, trade unionism and the dictatorship (1964-1985) in Brazil. The PT originated in 1979-80 from mass social struggles around “authentic” trade unionists (such as Lula), left-wing Catholics, far-left activists, the left-wing intelligentsia and some “pro…
Educators and activists: educating for life through work in work integration enterprises
2018
Este artículo se centra en el derecho a la educación para personas que viven en contextos de vulnerabilidad, en sintonía pero diferente a la aproximación de Escudero: en primer lugar, es una mirada sobre la educación no de jóvenes sino de personas adultas, muchas de ellas con trayectorias educativas truncadas, y todas ellas tras haber pasado por situaciones vitales que bien pueden calificarse de marginación y exclusión. En segundo lugar, ofrece una mirada a la práctica educativa en un contexto no escolar, sino productivo, ya que pone el foco de atención sobre el aprendizaje, tanto intencional como informal, que tiene lugar en empresas de inserción. En tercer lugar, nuestra perspectiva es la…
