Desafíos de la cohesión social en tiempos de crisis by Marco Zupi,Elisenda Estruch Puertas Pdf
Vivimos un cambio de época, no una época de cambios. La crisis actual impone retos, pero también se presenta como una oportunidad para Europa y América Latina. Lo que sí parece claro es que la salida a la crisis y las respuestas a los viejos desafíos y los nuevos riesgos sociales sólo pueden venir de la política. Por ello, resulta fundamental reforzar el diálogo político entre la UE y América Latina. Esto no significa sólo aumentar los foros de diálogos políticos sino más bien afrontar el diálogo de forma más simétrica, a través de un enfoque bi-direccional que se centre tanto en los problemas de América Latina como en los de la UE. Antonio Fernández Poyato Director de la FIIAPP
Sociología en tiempos de pandemia by Salido, Olga,Massó, Matilde Pdf
La pandemia del COVID-19 es una de las grandes encrucijadas críticas de nuestro tiempo. Desde las ciencias sociales se están haciendo numerosos esfuerzos para entender lo que está ocurriendo y vislumbrar lo que el futuro depara. La sociología, como disciplina interesada por estudiar la vida de la gente en sociedad, aporta una aproximación única e ineludible para entender los impactos sociales de la pandemia y sus consecuencias sobre la sociedad pos-COVID. Este libro recoge una serie de aportaciones destacadas que pretenden representar esa manera singular de aproximarse al conocimiento del mundo que es común a los profesionales de la sociología y que, más allá de adscripciones a escuelas teóricas o metodológicas, consiste en analizar la sociedad y sus mecanismos sociales como una realidad compleja e interconectada. Nunca antes como ahora resultó tan palpable la necesidad de articular un pensamiento crítico y científicamente fundado para guiar las decisiones de política más allá de la inmediatez y la dimensión epidemiológica de la pandemia.
Middle Class Identities and Social Crisis by Alejandro Grimson,Menara Guizardi,Silvina Merenson Pdf
This book explores the dynamics of the "middle-class global rebellion" born of the frustration at declining living standards. Addressing narratives constructed by different social and political agents and groups, it examines contexts of social crisis in Latin America, Europe, Africa, Asia, and Oceania, understanding the middle classes as a set of complex and conflicting political relationships. With attention to the manner in which people create "situated habits", consolidating new expectations and desires through a concrete biography, it analyzes continuities and changes in classed self-perceptions based on performative use. With new perspectives, including historical and intersectional approaches, Middle Class Identities and Social Crisis transcends disciplinary boundaries to explore the hybridity of research methods and techniques and challenge established analytical frameworks. It will therefore appeal to scholars across the social sciences with interests in class and questions of class identity.
The Press and Democratic Backsliding by Thomas J. Johnson,Aaron S. Veenstra Pdf
This edited volume argues that journalists and other political communicators have allowed antidemocratic movements in the United States and elsewhere to metastasize within the body politic. It not only seeks to identify and explain these press failures but to recommend new ways forward.
Encargos comunes (inglés) by Fabiola González,Yair Estay Pdf
“Encargos Comunes” se presenta como un proyecto editorial que resume, a partir de tres obras de arquitectura, la práctica e investigación desarrollada por la oficina de arquitectura Taller25 en torno a esta profesión y su vínculo con la clase media contemporánea chilena. Estas obras identifican y visibilizan tres demandas sobre la vivienda: una Construcción nueva, una Reforma y una Ampliación, realizadas en comunas que normalmente se conocen como “Pericentrales” y “Periféricas” de la región Metropolitana (Lo Prado, San Bernardo y Maipú), cuyos mandantes o dueñas/os se inscriben en lo que estadísticamente se define como la clase media, transformándose así en un compendio atípico dentro de la disciplina de la arquitectura. De esta manera, la publicación propone una discusión crítica sobre la producción de la vivienda, y no de cualquier vivienda, sino de las más comunes de todas y, paradójicamente, menos abordadas desde el campo editorial y de divulgación en el área, como pueden ser las operaciones sobre la vivienda de y para los sectores medios.
After Pinochet's dictatorship ended in Chile in 1990, the country experienced a rapid decline in poverty along with a quickly growing economy. As a result, Chile's middle class expanded dramatically, echoing trends seen across the Global South as neoliberalism took firm hold in the 1990s and the early 2000s. Identity Investments examines the politics and consumption practices of this vast and varied fraction of the Chilean population, seeking to better understand their value systems and the histories that informed them. Using participant observation, interviews, and photographs, Joel Stillerman develops a unique typology of the middle class, made up of activists, moderate Catholics, pragmatists, and youngsters. This typology allows him to unearth the cultural, political, and religious roots of middle-class market practices in contrast with other studies focused on social mobility and exclusionary practices. The resultant contrast in backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives of these four groups animates this book and extends an emerging body of scholarship focused on the connections between middle-class market choices and politics in the Global South, with important implications for Chile's recent explosive political changes.

Workers and the Global Informal Economy by Supriya Routh,Vando Borghi Pdf
The global financial crisis and subsequent increase in social inequality has led in many cases to a redrawing of the boundaries between formal and informal work. This interdisciplinary volume explores the role of informal work in today’s global economy, presenting economic, legal, sociological, historical, anthropological, political and cultural perspectives on the topic. Workers and the Global Informal Economy explores varying definitions of informality in the backdrop of neo-liberal market logic, exploring how it manifests itself in different regions around the world, and its relationship with formal work. This volume demonstrates how neo-liberalism has been instrumental in accelerating informality and has resulted in the increasingly precarious position of the informal worker. Using different methodological approaches and regional focuses, this book considers key questions such as whether workers exercise choice over their work; how constrained such choices are; how social norms shape such choices; how work affects their well-being and agency; and what role culture plays in the determination of informality. This interdisciplinary collection will be of interest to policy-makers and researchers engaging with informality from different disciplinary and regional perspectives.
Rigidities and Fiscal Space in Latin America by Oscar Centrángolo,Juan Pablo Jiménez,Ramiro Ruíz del Castillo Pdf
The paper begins with a conceptual overview and comparative analysis of the cases studied in Latin America. First, there is an analysis and review of the theoretical justifications and arguments used in the political debate which underlies the emergence and persistence of rigidities in countries of the region, following a typology which allows for the classification of the reasons for rigidities. Based on the case studies the potential effects of fiscal rigidities on public budgets and their impact on fiscal-policy management are evaluated. The ultimate goal of this comparative study is to provide a set of recommendations to help guide future improvements in the management of public budgets.
Multiculturalism and Social Cohesion by Jeffrey G. Reitz,Raymond Breton,Karen Kisiel Dion,Kenneth L. Dion Pdf
Does multiculturalism ‘work’? Does multiculturalism policy create social cohesion, or undermine it? Multiculturalism was introduced in Canada in the 1970s and widely adopted internationally, but more recently has been hotly debated, amid new concerns about social, cultural, and political impacts of immigration. Advocates praise multiculturalism for its emphasis on special recognition for cultural minorities as facilitating their social integration, while opponents charge that multiculturalism threatens social cohesion by encouraging social isolation. Multiculturalism is thus rooted in a theory of human behaviour, and this book examines the empirical validity of some of its basic propositions, focusing on Canada as the country for which the most enthusiastic claims for multiculturalism have been made. The analysis draws on the massive national Ethnic Diversity Survey of over 41,000 Canadians in 2002, the most extensive survey yet conducted on this question. The analysis provides a new and more nuanced understanding of the complex relation between multiculturalism and social cohesion, challenging uncritically optimistic or pessimistic views. Ethnic community ties facilitate some aspects of social integration, while discouraging others. For racial minorities, relations within and outside minority communities are greatly complicated by more frequent experiences of discrimination and inequality, slowing processes of social integration. Implications for multicultural policies emphasize that race relations present important challenges across Quebec and the rest of Canada, including for the new religious minorities, and that ethnic community development requires more explicit support for social integration.
