Abstract

La recerca sobre el franquisme continua revelant-nos, en ple segle XXI, dades i fets insospitats. A l’abril del 2010, els investigadors que van participar en el congrés «La dictadura franquista: la institucionalització d’un règim», organitzat pel Centre d’Estudis Històrics Internacionals (CEHI), van avançar en la recuperació de la memòria col·lectiva de l’època franquista, especialment en els inicis de la implantació del nou règim. L’interès del congrés no sols va raure en el perfil dels ponents, els principals historiadors del període, sinó també en el contingut de les comunicacions dels nombrosos investigadors que hi van participar, de les quals presentem una selecció. És per això que aquesta obra, que aplega tant les ponències com les comunicacions del congrés, representa una de les aportacions més valuoses a la historiografia sobre la dictadura.

Abstract

This book is the result of this process and has the participation of teachers and students who are part of the Group for Studies, Research and Advisory in Social Policies (GEAPS) and the Center for Studies, Research and Social Practices (NUPEPS). It presents discussions of great importance for Social Work, insofar as they propose to reflect on Social Security in Brazil, bringing broader discussions such as: the financing and commodification of social policies; the historical trajectory of social control, especially in the field of health; and work management in the Unified Health System (SUS) in the context of productive restructuring. We also find in this collection texts that present research results that aimed to analyse in a more specific way the reality of the municipality of Campina Grande (PB), with regard to the implementation of the Family Health Strategy, based on the evaluation of professionals in the area; the concepts of STD / AIDS counselling for pregnant women by professionals in the Basic Family Health Units; and Civil Society Organizations serving people with disabilities.

Abstract

Antes de publicar Vila dos Confins e Chapadão do Bugre – obras seminais da literatura brasileira – Mário Palmério já era considerado um mito no interior de Minas Gerais. Contrariando as expectativas em uma região atormentada por diversas crises, o jovem e ambicioso professor assumiu riscos, tornou-se um empresário bem-sucedido e aprendeu a manipular os símbolos mais preciosos de sua sociedade. Palmério desenvolveu uma percepção aguçada sobre a dimensão teatral da vida social e empregou uma série de procedimentos dramatúrgicos para supervalorizar seu papel e conquistar a adoração dos conterrâneos. Na campanha eleitoral de 1950, ao atuar como um guerreiro sagrado capaz de conduzir seu povo à terra prometida, Palmério elegeu-se deputado federal e consagrou-se como um mito político. Resultado de pesquisa de doutorado, o livro explica essa trajetória na perspectiva da História Cultural.

Abstract

This open access book explores different landscapes of Lifelong Learning policies (LLP), producing case-based examinations of their institutional, discursive, and relational dimensions. Across Europe, young people develop their life courses amidst diverse living conditions and are confronted with a variety of institutional and structural arrangements that impact on their opportunities in education and labour. Considering the relevance of LLP in shaping those opportunities, the chapters draw from multi-level, mixed-methods research and offer original insights on the interplay of discourses and governance patterns in the processes of policy-making and deliverance. The book yields noteworthy insights into the widely differing realities across the European landscape, and also into the diverging ways young people deal with and actively participate in LLP.

Abstract

This open access book presents an in-depth analysis of data from ICCS. An international group of scholars critically address the state of civic and citizenship education in the four Nordic countries that participated in the IEA International Civic and Citizenship Education Study (ICCS) in 2009 and 2016. The findings are of particular relevance to educators at all levels, from school education through to teacher education. Nordic countries have long traditions of democracy and their students have performed relatively well in the ICCS assessments. Nonetheless, citizenship education continues to evolve and has received increasing attention in recent educational reforms, indicating policymakers understanding that schools play an important role in establishing democratic values among future citizens. Data from ICCS can be used to analyze, discuss, and reflect on the status of civic and citizenship education and can contribute to the discourse on the potential role of education in contributing to sustainable democracies for a common future. However, teaching citizenship and learning democracy are two different things. While young people can be taught about democracy in school, it is vital that schools work together with the wider community in which youth operate to strengthen civic understanding and values for all young people regardless of their social and economic background.

Abstract

This open access edited volume is a comparative effort to discern the short-term educational impact of the covid-19 pandemic on students, teachers and systems in Brazil, Chile, Finland, Japan, Mexico, Norway, Portugal, Russia, Singapore, Spain, South Africa, the United Kingdom and the United States. One of the first academic comparative studies of the educational impact of the pandemic, the book explains how the interruption of in person instruction and the variable efficacy of alternative forms of education caused learning loss and disengagement with learning, especially for disadvantaged students. Other direct and indirect impacts of the pandemic diminished the ability of families to support children and youth in their education. For students, as well as for teachers and school staff, these included the economic shocks experienced by families, in some cases leading to food insecurity and in many more causing stress and anxiety and impacting mental health. Opportunity to learn was also diminished by the shocks and trauma experienced by those with a close relative infected by the virus, and by the constrains on learning resulting from students having to learn at home, where the demands of schoolwork had to be negotiated with other family necessities, often sharing limited space. Furthermore, the prolonged stress caused by the uncertainty over the resolution of the pandemic and resulting from the knowledge that anyone could be infected and potentially lose their lives, created a traumatic context for many that undermined the necessary focus and dedication to schoolwork. These individual effects were reinforced by community effects, particularly for students and teachers living in communities where the multifaceted negative impacts resulting from the pandemic were pervasive. This is an open access book.
