Human Rights and the Inclusive Society
2012
Chapter 3 approaches disability as a reality that may impede the universality of human rights given that the rights of the group in question are “systematically violated”. To achieve an inclusive society in which everyone’s rights are implement, it is necessary to start with an adequate definition of the problem, referring to these individuals as “people with different capacities”, recognizing the place this difference has in society, and the role the State plays in the integration of this difference. To do this, their social visibility needs to be promoted as well as their accessibility to all spheres of social life, guaranteeing their participation in the labour and political fields, over…
Erozja uniwersyteckiego nomosu jako czynnik zmiany porządku normatywnego
2018
University education is stereotypically associated with the internalization of a set of cultural norms – rules of behavior, folkways, mores, etc. All these norms and rules constitute the university nomos that erodes deeply in recent times, especially in the social sciences fields of study. This erosion consists of phenomena and processes of anomic character. Their reasons lie in a broader social, cultural and political context in which the contemporary university works. And these anomic phenomena and processes impact secondarily on different spheres of social life – because of mass access to the studies and mass supply of graduates – in effect increasing anomie in society as a whole. In the…
Fuzziness and social life: Informal notions, formal definitions
2012
A clear bidirectional path exists between everyday social and cultural life and the formal notions of uncertainty. If in recent times there has been a resurgence of the contribution of the formal notions of fuzziness and vagueness to disciplines such as aesthetics, medicine and more generally humanities, it is also true that concepts and phenomena from everyday reality are continually and usefully reused in order to build formal definitions that are more akin to the essence of things. In this paper, some notions connected with the handling of uncertainty, and particularly with FST, are outlined with the aim of benefitting the spontaneous emergence of new paths toward an unified theory of un…
Cyber-Identities and Social Life in Cyberspace
2011
Information and communication technology gradually transform virtual communities to active meeting places for sharing information and for supporting human actions, feelings and needs. In this chapter the authors examine the conceptual definition of virtual community as found in the traditional cyberliterature and extend it to accommodate latest cybertrends. Similar to the ways that previous social and mass media dissolved social boundaries related to time and space, cyber-communities and social software seem to also dissolve the boundaries of identity. This, in turn, questions the trust, privacy and confidentiality of interaction. The authors present a way of classifying and viewing self-pr…
Introduction: Working Time, Family and Wellbeing
2018
Time is fundamental to the orchestration and synchronisation of the social life of families, communities and societies. Working time has various dimensions that are important for individuals as well as for families, each of the dimensions hold potential outcomes for health and welfare at an individual and family level. Yet not all workers are faced by these challenges equally. Importantly, differences occur based on gender and socio-economic position, which are examined throughout the chapters of this book.

Tiempos felices: Transformaciones en las tecnologías psicológicas de gobierno de la subjetividad
2020
This paper traces some inflections in the psy disciplines? discourses and technologies for the government of subjectivity during the last decades. It is focused on exploring different mechanisms through which psychological disciplines ?their discourses, techniques and practices? penetrate social life and contribute to establishing subject models consistent with transformations in the political and economic rationalities of late capitalism. Drawing on previous research in the field of gender politics and happiness discourses in the pop psychological culture, I track a line with three moments: i) the production of psychological individuality and identity normalization; ii) the proliferation o…
Performing arts and mediation technology in the period of lockdown
2021
Advancements in digital technologies have become novel ways to enrich communication, expression, and transmission of arts knowledge. Technology is increasingly implemented in the performance space, as a source of inspiration for artists. Especially in this period of lockdown, mediation technology has turned out to be an essential tool for different aspects of social life, as in performing arts. With venues, schools and artistic activities closed, performers, students and spectators have been obliged to keep connecting in remote conditions. This article wants to retrace the aesthetic impact of mediation technology in performing arts during this period of lockdown by focusing on the aspects t…
