Abstract

Social problems such as unemployment, poverty and drug addiction are a fact of life in industrialised societies. This book examines the sociology of social problems from interesting and challenging perspectives. It analyses how social problems emerge and are defined as such, who takes responsibility for them, who is threatened by them and how they are managed, solved or ignored. The authors examine and critique existing theories of social problems before developing their own theoretical framework. Their 'theory of residualist conversion of social problems' explains how certain social problems threaten legitimate power structures, so that problems of a social or political nature are transformed into personal problems, and the 'helping professions' are left to intervene. This book will become a key reference on class, inequality and social intervention and an important text for students in sociology and social work courses.

Abstract

Dorst describes a new, innovation-centered approach to problem-solving in organizations: frame creation. It applies "design thinking," but it goes beyond the borrowed tricks and techniques that usually characterize that term. The strategies presented are drawn from the unique, sophisticated, multilayered practices of top designers, and from insights that have emerged from fifty years of design research. He describes the nine steps of the frame creation process and illustrates their application to real-world problems with a series of varied case studies. He maps innovative solutions that include rethinking a store layout so retail spaces encourage purchasing rather than stealing, applying the frame of a music festival to understand late-night problems of crime and congestion in a club district, and creative ways to attract young employees to a temporary staffing agency. --

Abstract

Taal verandert en de Schrijfwijzer verandert mee. Daarom een volledig herziene editie van dit naslagwerk dat al sinds 1979 hét kompas is voor schrijvend Nederland en Vlaanderen. De Schrijfwijzer geeft antwoorden op vragen waarmee iedere schrijver worstelt. Hoe schrijf ik zó dat de lezer niet afhaakt? Wat is de functie van de puntkomma? Hoe schrijf ik overzichtelijke zinnen? En natuurlijk ook 1001 taalkwesties, zoals het gebruik van hen - hun, de tussen-n en : aaneenschrijven, streepje of spatie. Deze zesde editie, met nieuwe voorbeelden en duidelijker uitleg, is nog beter toegespitst op de verschillende gebruikersgroepen: studenten, secretaresses, journalisten, ambtenaren en andere schrijvers. Of je nu online teksten of een afstudeerscriptie schrijft, bij het beantwoorden van taalvragen gaat het niet alleen om losse taalkwesties, maar ook om de tekstkwaliteit.

The Introduction Section > Answering the Question 'How?' The Method Section > Answering the Question 'What Did I Find?' The Results Section > Answering the Question 'So What?' The Discussion Section > Title, Abstract, Reference and Formatting > Example of an Experimental Write-up How to Design and Report Experiments is the perfect textbook and guide to the often bewildering world of experimental design and statistics. It provides a complete map of the entire process beginning with how to get ideas about research, how to refine your research question and the actual design of the experiment, leading on to statistical procedure and assistance with writing up of results. While many books look at the fundamentals of doing successful experiments and include good coverage of statistical techniques, this book very importantly considers the process in chronological order with specific attention given to effective design in the context of likely methods needed and expected results. Without full assessment of these aspects, the experience and results may not end up being as positive as one might have hoped. Ample coverage is then also provided of statistical data analysis, a hazardous journey in itself, and the reporting of findings, with numerous examples and helpful tips of common downfalls throughout. Combining light humour, empathy with solid practical guidance to ensure a positive experience overall, How to Design and Report Experiments will be essential reading for students in psychology and those in cognate disciplines with an experimental focus or content in research methods courses.

Abstract

In 1977, the Benedictine monk and architect Dom Hans van der Laan (1904-1991) published his manifesto Architectonic Space, Fifteen Lessons on the Disposition of the Human Habitat. Seeking out to capture the essence of spatial experience as a foundation for architecture, he developed a design methodology through his own proportional system of the 'Plastic Number'. Around that same period, Dom van der Laan built Roosenberg Abbey in Waasmunster for the Marian Sisters of St.-Francis. And while his theories remain fairly abstract, this building demonstrates the concrete use of proportion, materiality and light in relation to perception and movement in space. Moreover, this building is designed to guide the inhabitant into contemplation, intensity and stillness. This manual is an introduction to Dom van der Laan's design methodology, as he applied it to Roosenberg Abbey. Original drawings are combined with explanatory diagrams, complemented by nine original letters from the architect to the Sisters as well as a series of photographs by Friederike von Rauch, to offer an in-depth reading of this building on different levels.

Abstract

Herstel staat de afgelopen jaren steeds meer centraal als doelstelling van verslavingszorg en ?preventie. In het buitenland groeide de ?herstelbeweging? de afgelopen jaren uit tot een belangrijke hoeksteen van het drugsbeleid. In Vlaanderen plaatste Vlaams minister Van Deurzen (2015) herstel voorop als voornaamste beleidsdoelstelling van zijn uitgebreide bevoegdheid op het vlak van verslavingszorg en -preventie. De auteurs stellen vast dat de theorievorming over en het wetenschappelijk onderzoek naar herstel nog in volle ontwikkeling zijn. De werkvloer staat voor de uitdaging om ? meer ? herstelgericht te werken. Valkuilen hierbij zijn het gelijkstellen van herstel aan abstinentie of het doorschuiven van de zorgverantwoordelijkheid naar de cliënt en zijn niet altijd even draagkrachtig netwerk.Met het boek Naar een herstelgerichte verslavingszorg willen de auteurs het begrip ?herstel? conceptueel verdiepen en duiden. Tegelijk reiken zij handvatten aan hoe herstelgerichte zorg en ondersteuning in beleid en praktijk vorm kunnen krijgen. Ze doen dit voor verschillende zorg- en ondersteuningsvormen: van het algemene welzijnswerk tot de geestelijke gezondheidszorg en de gespecialiseerde drughulpverlening. Ze geven aan hoe drugbeleid en -preventie een meer herstelgerichte invulling kunnen krijgen. Naast interventies komen ook een aantal kwetsbare groepen met specifieke ondersteuningsnoden aan bodwww.acco.be
