Cet ouvrage est une contribution au droit social européen portant sur la question de la rupture conventionnelle du contrat de travail à durée indéterminée. Si un tel mode de rupture est aujourd¿hui admis dans la majorité des États membres de l¿Union européenne, il est permis de s¿interroger sur les effets des législations nationales dans l¿organisation du marché du travail européen, notamment sur les droits des travailleurs. À l¿issue d¿une étude comparative sur les principes du droit des contrats, les éléments constitutifs de la relation de travail et l¿évolution de la politique sociale européenne, ces travaux proposent l¿élaboration d¿une norme européenne en vue d¿harmoniser un droit à la rupture conventionnelle du contrat de travail à durée indéterminée au sein de l¿Union européenne.

We the Other People -The Beggars of the Mercury Lights- introduces a new voice in American social literature, narrating the relationship between political power and invisible poverty amidst a crisis of conservative values, social injustice, the excesses of extremism, and the politicization of human suffering as a tool of power in the United States. The story focuses on a family, the Newmans, whose recent economic misfortune has plunged their patriarch into a depressive state in the years leading up to the global health crisis, which forms the backdrop of the novel. Steve Newman struggles to overcome his condition, creating imaginary games in which he blends experiences and fiction as therapy to ward off depression. From his misfortune and desperation emerges the resilience that rescues him from the demons that haunt him, turning him into a more compassionate member of society. Steve must come to terms with his new life, no longer from the height of opulence as he did before his failure, but now knowing firsthand society's abandonment of the poor and the socially 'invisible.' Castaño-Bedoya's novel recreates the lives of those who endure the difficulties of existence under the failure of the Constitution, and who clamor for their universal right to live without fear.

Why would an innocent person ever confess to a crime they did not commit? Academia has conducted a great deal of research into this question and have routinely concluded that the actions of law enforcement officers and their interrogative tactics are largely responsible for these false confessions. Through the claims of academic researchers, expert witnesses, wrongful conviction advocates, defense attorneys, and even Hollywood producers, an ethos has been created which suggests that American law enforcement officers routinely overbear the will of criminal subjects and will stop at nothing in order to obtain a confession; even a false confession. This book finally brings balance to these flawed assertions by providing insights from real-world law enforcement officers who specialize in the field of criminal interrogation. This book also highlights the anti-law enforcement bias present within the academic community; the flawed and unrealistic research designs utilized to study the false confession phenomenon; and the rise of the lucrative false confession expert witness industry. In what can only be described as 'apoplectic, ' academics have already equated the positions in this book to "arguing against the existence of climate change" and have pleaded that it "should never see the light of publication." At last, a book has been written that reconsiders the false confession phenomenon from a law enforcement perspective and ultimately paints a drastically different picture of what takes place inside of America's interrogation rooms. This book promises to offer a different take on what many so-called experts would have you believe about criminal interrogation; and it's one they don't want you to hear.

Danger in Police Culture: Perspectives from South Africa offers a fresh perspective on how officers understand, interpret and construct danger. With unique insight from working with uniformed and detective police, the author breaks new ground as the first researcher to work alongside a Tactical Response Team in South Africa.Through ethnographic research in South Africa, Perkins explores the lived experiences of police navigating danger and death. Reframing the question of what makes policing dangerous, the author employs a theoretical framework as a prism, illuminating ambiguous ideas shaping perceptions of danger in police culture. A vivid portrayal of how danger is materialized through risk reduction strategies and artefacts, dramatized through memorialization and normalized in daily police practices, Perkins concludes by reflecting on policy developments aimed at addressing the understanding and influence of danger in contemporary policing.Underscoring the need to reconsider the concept of danger in policing, this is a much-needed assessment of its understanding and impact on contemporary police work.In support of the Perkins Síochána Scholarship, the author's proceeds from the sale of this book will be used to fund the continuing development of South African graduate students in Criminal Justice and Criminology studies in the Global South.

When landlords always win and renters pay the price, what can be done?

Fearlessly whistleblowing, shining a spotlight on the Police and the embedded rotten culture of dishonesty, wanton misogyny, statistical fabrication and evidence corruption. The author, an ex Manchester police officer has chosen to highlight the Greater Manchester Police, said to have "lost its moral compass" by an ex Detective Superintendent and is "Rotten to its Core" by a leading Kings Council. This book is a contextual hard hitting, factual expose of alleged police leadership, with a continual backdrop of corruption, evidence fabrication, lies and training failures during a lengthy period of 'service' of seven naively selected Chief Constables of Greater Manchester Police. All successively 'defending the indefensible' in their own style but growing to mammoth proportions, and yet still unrecognized by choice at Government levels. The accepted status quo amongst Chief Constables and Senior Officers continued to promote the lies, fabrication of statistics and evidence. All whilst wallowing in the cesspit of corruption, built over many years with a blasé acceptance of being untouchable and if at all investigated internally by similar perpetrators. The National Media whilst dutifully reporting recent popular prosecutions of lowly Constables at the 'pointed end' for a wide variety of hitherto ignored and accepted criminal practices does not recognize the historical basis. The fact that the current higher ranks, proclaiming disgust, were once lowly constables indulging in what was always accepted practices and now hidden from the public gaze with an air of recent 'successes'.... Short and very selective memories, comes to mind.

How to take a political beating and surviveIn the struggle for a better world, setbacks are inevitable. Defeat can feel overwhelming at times, but it has to be endured. How then do the people on the front line keep going? To answer that question and to help readers roll with the punches, Hannah Proctor draws on historical resources to find out how revolutionaries and activists of the past kept a grip on hope.Burnout considers former Communards exiled to a penal colony in the South Pacific; a young Bolshevik fleeing the city in despair; an ex-militant on the analyst’s couch relating dreams of ruined landscapes; a trade union organizer seeking advice from a spiritual healer; and a group of feminists padding a room with mattresses to scream about the patriarchy. Jettisoning therapy talk and its stranglehold on our language, Proctor offers a different way forward—neither denial nor despair. Her cogent exploration of the ways militants make sense of their own burnout demonstrates that it is possible to mourn and organize at once, and to do both without compromise.[ENDORSEMENTS TK][logo]SUBJECT LINE [INITIAL CAP ONLY]: PoliticsRETAIL PRICES [DOMESTIC MARKET FIRST]: £14.99 / $24.95 / $33.95CANversobooks.comISBN-13: 9781839766053

This book gives insights on the fact that work in itself is sacred and wholly-addressing a wide range of economic, social, political, cultural and theological imbalances. It was ordained by God from the beginning, before the fall of man. After the Fall, it just got tougher, frustrating, exhausting, sometimes even boring. But work pursued with excellence and integrity is still pleasing to God, a way of honouring Him by serving in the unique ways He has equipped us. Our work often provides the opportunities to proclaim Him to a broken, unredeemed world-----through our examples, as well as by our words. A lot of workers do not see a connection between what they do and what they believe God wants it done in the world, within their circle of influences. We found out that many workers feel unfulfilled and frustrated in their work -including Christians, largely because they probably lack a proper understanding of why they work and its meaning to them. This book gives an overview of the attitude of people regarding work. The big idea is that our attitude towards work might change for good and thereby make considerable impact in our world. Our attitude towards work is characterise by the way people view work While human dignity is not supposed to be regional or racial in discussion, I quite agree with Dr Tanimu on the emphasis in the lives of the very poor people of Africa...Tanimu has laboured extensively to show how through God's perspective, systems in society can be discovered, developed and deployed to enhance the dignity of human life in Africa.----Bishop Michael O.

An eye-opening account of life in China s orphanages. Kay Bratt vividly details the conditions and realities faced by Chinese orphans in an easy-to-read manner that draws the reader in to the heart-wrenching moments she has experienced in her work to bring hope to these children. Dan Cruver, cofounder and director of Together for Adoption When her family relocated to rural China in 2003, Kay Bratt was thrust into a new world, one where boys were considered more valuable than girls and poverty and the one-child policy had created an epidemic of abandoned infants. As a volunteer at a local orphanage, Bratt witnessed conditions that were unfathomable to a middle-class mother of two from South Carolina.Based on Bratt s diary of her four years working at the orphanage, "Silent Tears" offers a searing account of young lives rendered disposable. In the face of an implacable system, Bratt found ways to work within (and around) the rules to make a better future for the children, whom she came to love. Her story balances the sadness and struggles of life in the orphanage with moments of joy, optimism, faith, and victory. It is the story of hundreds of children and one woman who never planned on becoming a hero but became one anyway. Kay Bratt continues to raise awareness and advocate for at-risk children. In China, she was honored with the 2006 Pride of the City award for her humanitarian work. She is the founder of the Mifan Mommy Club, an online organization that provides rice for children in China s orphanages, and is also an active volunteer for Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) for abused and neglected children. Kay currently resides in Georgia with her husband and daughter. "

Now more than ever there is a need to focus on Black men's health in higher education and ensure that future practitioners are trained to ethically and culturally serve this historically oppressed community. This textbook provides practical insight and knowledge that prepare students to work with Black men and their families from a strengths-based and social justice lens. There is a dearth in the literature that discusses the prioritization of Black men¿s health within the context of how they are viewed by societal approaches to engage them in research, and health programming aimed at increasing their participation in health services to decrease their morbidity and mortality rates. Much of the extant literature is over 10 years old and doesn't account for social determinants of health, perceptions of health status, as well as social justice implications that can affect the health outcomes of this historically oppressed population including structuraland systemic racism as well as police brutality and gun violence.The book's 13 chapters represent a diversity of thought and perspectives of experts reflective of various disciplines and are organized in four sections:Part I - Racial Disparities and Black MenPart II - Black Masculinity Part III - Black Men in Research Part IV - Social Justice Implications for Black Men's Health Black Men¿s Health serves as a core text across multiple disciplines and can be utilized in undergraduate- and graduate-level curriculums. It equips students and educators in social work, nursing, public health, and other helping professions with the knowledge and insight that can be helpful in their future experiences of working with Black men or men from other marginalized racial/ethnic groups and their families/social support systems. Scholars, practitioners, and academics in these disciplines, as well as community-based organizations who provide services to Black men and their families, state agencies, and evaluation firms with shared interests also would find this a useful resource.

This interdisciplinary book consists of three parts which examine the European Union policies on research and innovation, education and life-long learning, as well as the European Union Pillar on social rights and youth policies. In the first part, high-level experts analyze the European Research Area and its current enhancement, with emphasis on mobility and employability of researchers, especially in times of crises.In the second part, the governance architecture of the European Education Area(s) is explored and the new objectives of the Bologna Process, as well as the EU institutional framework of the recognition of skills and qualifications, are analyzed. Life-long learning is also important for the individual development of human capital especially for socially vulnerable people who could also benefit from literacy policies and skills development. The second part concludes with the evaluation of the EU education and training policy based on social indicators in the framework of the EU 2020 Strategy.In the third part, the book turns to Social Europe and the balancing between ordo-liberalism and ordo-socialism. It examines the EU Pillar of Social Rights and its impact on youth policies. It analyzes the EU youth policies e.g. on youth credit and their interaction with young people's employment and education possibilities, with emphasis on the young people "e;not in education, employment or training"e; (NEETs).

Band 2 der Reihe Ideologie und Gewalt widmet sich praxisnah dem Thema der sozialen Diagnostik aus einer wissenschaftlichen Perspektive und nimmt dabei den diagnostischen Kreislauf von Fallverstehen bis Fallabschluss sowie die damit verbundenen Handlungsschritte in den Fokus.

Distanzierungsarbeit.

This book addresses three main issues in regional income inequality and development: meaning of regional inequality, measurement of regional inequality and the relationship between national economic development and regional income inequality. It provides analytical methods useful in exploring the determinants of regional inequality in income and productivity.  Some software commands in Stata (statistical software package) available for the measurement and analysis of income inequality are also introduced. Some researchers have argued that spatial concentration of population in and around major cities and the concurrent increase in regional inequality do not hinder national economic development, and may stimulate it. Nevertheless, many national governments seek to promote balanced regional economic development and reduce regional income inequality, because unbalanced development and higher levels of regional inequality may cause political or ethnic conflicts between different regions of the country. As the applications of the analytical methods introduced in the first part of the book, the second part presents four independent empirical studies on regional inequality and development in Indonesia. They offer very interesting case studies for the formulation of policies and programs to reduce regional inequalities, because as the world's largest archipelagic country with more than 13 thousand islands and 300 ethnic groups, Indonesia is spatially diverse in terms of its ecology, natural resource endowments, economy, ethnicity and culture.This book can be used as a textbook for undergraduate and graduate students who are interested in national economic development and regional income inequality. It is also beneficial for practitioners and policy makers who are in charge of the formulation, implementation and evaluation of development policies and programs.
