El Estado Social sigue en crisis. Ha empezado a estar en crisis desde quizá el momento mismo en que, paradójicamente, gozaba de legitimidad. El Estado de la justicia social ha nacido cuestionado (e impugnado) por aquellos sectores del derecho, de la economía y de la política que flamean hipócritamente la bandera del Estado mínimo. Vivimos en un escenario mundial de profundización de un capitalismo salvaje, insostenible y suicida, y de una imparable deslegitimación de la clase política y de la democracia, sumado a altas tasas de corrupción política y financiera, nacional e internacional, y enormes dosis de cinismo generalizado desde los grandes organismos financieros internacionales e incluso de algunos que pregonan la supuesta defensa de los derechos humanos. A la vez, surgen nuevos actores sociales en este teatro social mundial de autoritarismo político, de conservadurismo moral, recortes y violaciones de derechos humanos sociales, económicos y culturales, pero también de derechos individuales, civiles y políticos. Nuevos movimientos sociales y políticos, la ciudadanía en génesis democrática hambrienta de justicia social, de derechos sociales y también de libertades ciudadanas, deseosos de refundir nuevos modelos democráticos, coherentemente democráticos, procesal y materialmente igualitarios y libres. En este contexto, el objetivo de este libro es pensar en estos procesos sociales, políticos, económicos y democráticos desde el prisma de los derechos sociales. Este trabajo conjunto de profesores e investigadores de derechos sociales y de derechos humanos de la Universidad Nacional de Córdoba, Argentina, y de la Universidad Carlos III de Madrid, pretende posibilitar debates, prácticas, estudios y políticas sobre los derechos sociales, desde el convencimiento de que la calidad de vida y el pleno disfrute de los derechos sociales (y también de los derechos liberales), no tiene por qué ser una utopía. O que, quizá siéndolo, son éstas las utopías que deberían guiar la práctica, el ejercicio y la exigibilidad de los Estados de Derecho modernos. Por ciudadanos y ciudadanas del mundo libres de temor y miseria.
High-Risk Feminism in Colombia documents the experiences of grassroots women’s organizations that united to demand gender justice during and in the aftermath of Colombia’s armed conflict. In doing so, it illustrates a little-studied phenomenon: women whose experiences with violence catalyze them to mobilize and resist as feminists, even in the face of grave danger. Despite a well-established tradition of studying women in war, we tend to focus on their roles as mothers or carers, as peacemakers, or sometimes as revolutionaries. This book explains the gendered underpinnings of why women engage in feminist mobilization, even when this takes place in a ‘domain of losses’ that exposes them to high levels of risk. It follows four women’s organizations who break with traditional gender norms and defy armed groups’ social and territorial control, exposing them to retributive punishment. It provides rich evidence to document how women are able to surmount the barriers to mobilization when they frame their actions in terms of resistance, rather than fear.
Being Political presents a powerful critique of universalistic and orientalist interpretations of the origins of citizenship and a persuasive alternative history of the present struggles over citizenship.
This volume answers the following questions regarding imperialism today. What does imperialism mean in the new century? Do we need new concepts to understand imperialism? Who benefits and who suffers?
Examines contemporary development theory and discourse and explores its relationship to processes of democratization in sub-Saharan Africa. Focuses on the emergence and implementation of the good governance discourse. Draws on examples from four countries to demonstrate the impact of structural adjustment on economic and social conditions and describes the activities of democracy movements opposed to adjustment programmes. Concludes that the good governance agenda has been largely unsuccessful in promoting stable multi-party democracies in Africa.
This new book shows how from the end of the Cold War, the security agenda has been transformed and redefined, academically and politically. It focuses on the theme of protection. It moves away from the dominant question of whom or what is threatening to the crucial questions of who is to be protected, and in the case of conflicting claims, who has the capacity to define whose needs prevail. It also poses the question of political agency in relation to some of the most significant questions raised in relation to the governance of insecurity and protection in the contemporary world. The authors identify and explore issues that challenge or raise a number of questions about the traditional notion that states are to protect their citizens through retaining a monopoly over the legitimate use of violence.
Artificial intelligence (AI) is becoming increasingly more prevalent in our daily social and professional lives. Although AI systems and robots bring many benefits, they present several challenges as well. The autonomous and opaque nature of AI systems implies that their commercialisation will affect the legal and regulatory framework.0In this comprehensive book, scholars critically examine how AI systems may impact Belgian law. It contains contributions on consumer protection, contract law, liability, data protection, procedural law, insurance, health, intellectual property, arbitration, lethal autonomous weapons, tax law, employment law, ethics,?While specific topics of Belgian private and public law are thoroughly addressed, the book also provides a general overview of a number of regulatory and ethical AI evolutions and tendencies in the European Union. Therefore, it is a must-read for legal scholars, practitioners and government officials as well as for anyone with an interest in law and AI.
What structures of power are involved in governing societies and how are they connected? How is the liberal idea of governing through freedom linked to the increasing control of marginalised populations? Have we reached the end of history in which governing largely concerns self-governing individuals, networks and communities? Should we dispense with the 'container view of society' and contemplate the 'death of the social'? Today, many people in academia, politics and business, question the idea of being able to govern society. The nation state and sovereign government are displaced by globalization and individualization. Mitchell Dean focuses on ‘governing societies’ as a distinctive project that continues to define political life today. The book offers a critical analysis of contemporary liberal approaches to governing societies both in domestic and international affairs. Governing Societies provides an overview of current perspectives and theories and examines recent transformations in techniques and rationalities of rule. It presents a new argument for the importance and transformation of sovereignty and powers of life and death and how they are integral to governing liberal-democratic societies. The book is key reading for undergraduate and postgraduate students of sociology and politics, as well as researchers and academics.
