4. Apunts per a una visió crítica de les Biblioteques Humanes dins la funció social de la biblioteca pública

Abstract

The social function of a public library is a factor intrinsic to its essence and values. The intent to positively influence the society surrounding the library has been present, in one way or another, since at least the origin of modern public reading, now around 150 years ago, with the aim of providing access to education for the public and of fostering democratic spirit (Faus, 2000). When we say 'in one way or another', we are referring to the fact that the concept of sociocultural action or intervention has varied over the years and that the assistentialist nature and initial benefit gradually gave rise to more participative and transformative practices. Even so, although this social vision is widely accepted in theory, libraries still struggle to define their planning around the social action that they put into practice. In this article, we will highlight the importance of the need to define social action in public libraries, from both a theoretical and a practical point of view. We will then analyze the Human Library as part of the planning and programming of services and social activities of public libraries, and, with a critical eye, attempt to pinpoint its strong points and the aspects which we consider to be its weaknesses. Finally, we will propose a series of reflections to bear in mind when producing a programme of social activities in a library, based on its being an accessible, participative and transformative space.

Abstract

Objectives: The activities and services provided by libraries since the beginning of the pandemic have been documented in numerous accounts that, since March 2020, have reported on actions and difficulties and, more recently, have discussed the role of the library in the post-Covid era. This article aims to contribute to this debate by providing the results of a survey carried out with libraries that have been awarded the Fundación Biblioteca Social award or have qualified as finalists. Methodology: A questionnaire with open- and closed-ended questions was developed and disseminated among the 33 libraries in May 2021, obtaining responses from 24 of them, at a response rate of 70.6%. Results: The main results point to the difficulties experienced in the course of the pandemic in delivering services and maintaining relationships with users, highlighting the great dependence on technology. Conflicting experiences and opinions were reported regarding the success of the actions aimed at maintaining relationships with users. Finally, there is notable agreement around the need to rethink the role of the library in today's society and to collaborate with institutions and other social agents.

Abstract

The originally Danish principle of The Human Library has been known in the Netherlands for about six years now. Even during the coronavirus crisis, the organizers managed to reach more than 700 people in over 20 sessions. The high average rating given by the participants is in line with the positive results of previous studies on the impact of The Human Library. A distinction can be made between short-term and long-term effects, effects on voluntary participants versus participants in an edition of The Human Library in a mandatory setting, such as a work situation, and effects achieved in terms of awareness, change in attitude and behavioural change. In almost all of these areas, The Human Library scores high. In the future, more research can be done into the distinction between these different situations, as well as on the effect on the 'books' rather than the 'readers', on whom almost all research now focuses.

12. Gobernando la crianza en familias pobres: ONG y gestión durante la pandemia

Author

Ovalle, Amalia Alexandra, Amador-Baquiro, Juan Carlos, Ovalle, Amalia Alexandra, and Amador-Baquiro, Juan Carlos

Abstract

This article analyzes the parenting practices of poor families located in the city of Ibagué (Colombia), which emerged in the families’ relationships with an NGO that provided them with support during the COVID-19 pandemic. An ethnographic methodology was used, complemented with dialogic and participatory strategies. Two types of parenting practices were identified: food-based care and educational support. While the first was based upon receiving donations and was subject to market dynamics, the second was based on the allocation of educational roles to parents and caregivers so that they could teach their children based on the State’s guidelines. The authors conclude that these interventions support families to self-manage their precarious situation in the framework of the legitimation of a neoliberal social order., O artigo analisa práticas na formação de famílias pobres, localizadas na cidade de Ibagué (Colômbia), que emergem na sua relação com as ONGs, que as intervêm, no contexto da pandemia por Covid-19. A metodologia aplicada foi a etnografia, em diálogo com estratégias dialógicas e participativas. Evidenciaram-se dois tipos de práticas de formação: alimentar e de acompanhamento educativo. Enquanto a primeira se gestiona através de doações, sujeitas às lógicas do mercado, a segunda se baseia na designação de papéis educativos aos pais ou responsáveis para que estes instruam aos seus filhos e filhas com base nos parâmetros do Estado. Como conclusão, se evidencia que estas intervenções procuram que estas famílias autogestionem a sua precariedade, no marco da legitimação de uma ordem social neoliberal., El artículo analiza prácticas de crianza de familias pobres ubicadas en la ciudad de Ibagué (Colombia), que emergen en su relación con las ONG que las intervienen en el contexto de la pandemia por covid-19. La metodología empleada fue la etnografía, en diálogo con estrategias dialógicas y participativas. Se evidenciaron dos tipos de prácticas de crianza: alimentaria y de acompañamiento educativo. Mientras la primera se gestiona por medio de donaciones, sujetas a las lógicas del mercado, la segunda se basa en la asignación de roles educativos a los acudientes para que estos instruyan a sus hijos e hijas con base en los parámetros del Estado. Como conclusión, se evidencia que estas intervenciones buscan que las familias autogestionen su precariedad, en el marco de la legitimación de un orden social neoliberal.

Abstract

The research aims to analyze the role that political variables have in the configuration of the welfare state. The selected case studies are examples of the proposed political typology: Uruguay (high welfare state), Mexico (medium welfare state) and Guatemala (low welfare state). The research states that it is important to propose a typology with an explanatory ability, highlighting welfare states' structural configurations, and not just describing their short-term results. A political typology of welfare states has the advantage of highlighting the most significant explanatory variables for understanding the welfare state, it's political institutions, and especially democracy and state's capacity.

Abstract

In recent years, Chile has experienced an intense socio-legislative debate in which the State and society have taken responsibility for children who, for various reasons, cannot be cared for by their biological families. The crisis in the child protection system has become evident, highlighting the need for reform. This article proposes a critical analysis of the implementation of this policy based on a descriptive-interpretative study of the documents and evaluation reports produced by the National Service for Minors between 1994 and 2018. The study identifies structural deficiencies in the system that continued since this institution was founded. The authors identify that the cause of these deficiencies is the principle of subsidiarity of the State in this area. Resumen En los últimos años en Chile se asiste a un intenso debate sociolegislativo respecto al modo en que el Estado y la sociedad se responsabilizan de la niñez que, por diferentes razones, no puede estar al cuidado de sus familias consanguíneas.

En este artículo se propone un análisis crítico a la implementación de esta política, a partir de un estudio descriptivo-interpretativo de los documentos e informes evaluativos realizados al Servicio Nacional de Menores entre 1994 y 2018.

16. Nociones sobre la Familia y el Buen Vivir Ecuatoriano

Author

Calle García, Jorge Isaac, Calle Antón, Jorge Isaac, Calle García, Jorge Isaac, and Calle Antón, Jorge Isaac

Abstract

The research aims to establish some notions about the Family and The Ecuadorian Good Living, it is addressed with the descriptive-documentary research strategy, with a focus on the analytical method. The importance lies in the link between both institutions, since by assuming Good Living as a set of rights to be satisfied respecting nature, the Family represents the first structure of responsibilities and rights of people and, in complying with them, it is also done from the consideration of the natural environment. In addition, Good Living implies placing equality as the central axis, as is the case with the Family. In the most relevant conclusion, it is maintained that the Republic of Ecuador grants constitutional supremacy to the Family and Good Living because, together, they incorporate ancestral rights, perspectives and conceptions adapted to the present, with schemes and contents that allow development., La investigación tiene como objetivo establecer algunas nociones sobre la Familia y el Buen Vivir ecuatoriano; se aborda con la estrategia de investigación descriptiva-documental, con un enfoque en el método analítico. La importancia recae en el vínculo entre ambas instituciones, toda vez que al asumir al Buen Vivir como un conjunto de derechos a satisfacer respetando a la naturaleza, la Familia representa la primera estructura de responsabilidades y derechos de las personas y, al cumplir con ellas, igualmente se hace desde la consideración al entorno natural. Además, el Buen Vivir implica colocar como eje central la igualdad, tal como sucede con la Familia. En la conclusión más relevante, se sostiene, que la República del Ecuador le otorga supremacía constitucional a la Familia y al Buen Vivir pues, en conjunto, incorporan derechos, perspectivas y concepciones ancestrales adaptados al presente, con esquemas y contenidos que permiten el desarrollo.

Abstract

Objetivos: analizar cómo han evolucionado las actividades culturales de las bibliotecas populares de la provincia de Barcelona al iniciarse el período que va de 1959 a 1975, el llamadoObjectives: to analyse how the cultural activities of the popular libraries in the province of Barcelona evolved in the second period of Francoist Spain, that is between the years 1957 to 1975. This paper examines the type and nature of these activities; the interest they generated among the respective communities and the way in which the activities were adapted to a society that was undergoing profound changes; the importance of various social and cultural movements that emerged with particular strength in those years; the role played in them by Catalan language and culture; local alliances, and the extent to which these activities were guided by the authorities or responded to the initiative of the librarians. -- Methodology: an exhaustive report and analysis were undertaken of the activities organised in each of the popular libraries of the Provincial Council of Barcelona between 1957 and 1975, as reported in the Anuario de la Biblioteca Central y de las populares y especiales. The study examines all the popular libraries and the stable branch libraries that had a person responsible for their running. -- Results: it was during the sixties that the popular libraries were most active in promoting cultural activities. In general, they were well integrated within their respective communities and, thanks to the efforts of those responsible for their organisation, readers were able to follow closely the cultural movements that emerged in the capital: plays staged in the independent theatres, play readings, film forums, recitals of Nova Cançó promoting Catalan music etc. The libraries recovered their role as disseminators of culture, which they had had on being founded, and dedicated themselves once more to the task of promoting Catalan language and culture. Likewise, as in that earlier period, they once again became politically neutral spaces, but a neutrality that was characterised by its exclusive, non-integrative nature, which explains why they remained on the sidelines of certain social and political worries of the civil society of the day.

Abstract

En esta ponencia se pretende mostrar los resultados parciales del Proyecto de Investigación 2016-2017“Estudio de herramientas para la gestión urbanística de áreas clave para la integración urbana en la ciudad de Córdoba”, enmarcado en los Subsidios para Investigación de la Secretaría de Ciencia y Técnica de la Universidad Nacional de Córdoba. En este proyecto se están desarrollando dos ejes temáticos relacionados: (1) el análisis valorativo de diversas herramientas para la gestión urbanística, esto es, para la planificación, programación, proyectación e implementación de intervenciones en áreas clave para lograr una adecuada integración urbana; (2) la identificación de estas áreas clave en la ciudad de Córdoba, en las cuales ensayar estas herramientas, porque se encuentran en sectores urbanos en procesos de renovación y/o consolidación urbana, que evidencian signos de fragmentación urbana. Una de estas áreas clave es la zona periférica Sur de la ciudad de Córdoba, que como consecuencia de las inadecuadas políticas y normas urbanísticas que se vienen aplicando desde hace varios, el paisaje urbano emergente se caracteriza por conformar un mosaico en el que se yuxtaponen diversos fragmentos inconexos de trazados urbanos, periurbanos y rurales con diversos usos del suelo, con altos niveles de incompatibilidad física-funcional, con escasa integración socio-espacial. Por ello, en esta ponencia se hará una referencia particularizada sobre esta zona.En esta ponencia se planteas algunas reflexiones teórico-conceptuales sobre la planificación y las herramientas de la gestión urbanística y sobre los procesos de transformación urbana de las ciudades latinoamericanas, como marco de referencia de la situación de la metrópolis Córdoba. Luego se desarrolla el caso Córdoba con una caracterización de su estructura urbano-territorial general y de las problemáticas y desafíos de la zona Sur, en particular. Finalmente se plantean algunas conclusiones preliminares. Fil: Sánchez, Mónica, . Universidad Nacional de Villa María; Argentina. Fil: Repiso, Luciana. Universidad Nacional de Villa María; Argentina.

Abstract

There are significant differences in social protection and policies towards immigrants, including refugees, in different countries. The acceptance of foreign migrant workers and refugees is severely limited in Japan, and asylum seekers in particular face great difficulties because of their exclusion from the Japanese social security system. Compared to Japan, The Swedish government is readily accepting of refugees/asylums seekers and has provided them with sufficient social protection and services, although Sweden's population is less than one -tenth of Japan's . Where do the differences come from? This study explores the differences in opinions about tolerance of immigrants in Japan and Sweden. Respondents were asked about social protection and the social security system's stance towards people from other countries. This study adopted five psychological scales focused on views on immigrants and multiculturalism as independent questions. Individuals in three groups (undergraduates, teachers, and welfare personnel) in Japan and Sweden were surveyed by questionnaire. Responses were obtained from a total of about 640 people. The study found that Swedes answered positively to all of the independent questions. Among the groups, welfare personnel and teachers in Japan were mostly negative. Therefore, a higher level of education has not encouraged tolerance of immigrants and support of multiculturalism in Japan. The results of multiple regression analysis suggested that 'a normative attitude toward helping ' was associated with tolerance in both countries. Results also indicated that gender was a determinant of tolerance in Japan while education and self-esteem were determinants of tolerance in Sweden.

Abstract

Este trabajo comenzó guiado por el interés de conocer si, en situaciones de crisis, las prácticas periodísticas habituales presentan modificaciones y, si éstas determinan el producto final. Por tal motivo, se analizó la cobertura que realizó La Voz del Interior digital durante el conflicto policial de diciembre de 2013. Con ese objetivo, se tuvo como hipótesis que, durante la cobertura de dicho conflicto, las prácticas periodísticas habituales se modificaron. Se trabajó con una triangulación de técnicas cualitativas y cuantitativas que incluyeron análisis de contenidos y entrevistas a informantes claves. Asimismo, se reflexionó sobre la construcción social de la realidad y el papel que les cabe a los medios en ella, haciendo foco en los procesos de producción de las noticias. -- Fil: Solans, María.

Abstract

Dissertação de Mestrado apresentada à Universidade Fernando Pessoa como parte dos requisitos para obtenção do grau de Mestre em Serviço Social. As questões da imigração são as questões de um mundo globalizado cujos recursos não se encontram repartidos igualmente. Esta realidade surge-nos hoje posta em evidência pela rapidez com que a informação circula. As tentativas de encarar o fenómeno como algo que se pode descartar trouxeram problemas às sociedades contemporâneas. Hoje, a imigração deve ser vista como módulo de problemas/oportunidades. A dimensão cultural constitui-se muitas vezes como cerne dos conflitos; nela residem também as possibilidades da sua superação. Tanto as associações de imigrantes como as associações musicais, entre outras do terceiro sector, podem desempenhar autêntico Serviço Social ao contribuírem para uma interculturalidade capaz de ultrapassar a retórica política e finalmente chegar à realidade social. Neste trabalho analisaremos a acção das associações de imigrantes e as associações musicais, tentando perceber se as suas práticas de inserção são ou não coerentes, sobretudo no uso de ferramentas como a internet. Os resultados a que se chegou apresentam-se mistos, ainda que não inconclusivos. A análise exploratória sugere no fim quase tantas respostas como caminhos por explorar. The issues of immigration are the issues of a global world in which resources are not equally available. This reality becomes today more apparent, given the speed at which information spreads. Some countries tried to face immigration as a disposable resource, and even as a dispensable problem. Today, immigration has to be seen as a module composed of problems and opportunities. Culture is central to this issue, being the source of a number of social problems but also representing a possibility of finding their solution. Immigrant and musical associations, as well as others NGOs, are given the possibility of enacting as true social services by means of their contribution to an intercultural reality that breaks from political speech and reaches directly the society. This research is an attempt to understand the work of immigrant and music associations and whether their action aiming at integrating is actually coherent when using tools such as Internet. The results, though not inconclusive, are somewhat mixed. The exploratory analysis ends up with almost as many answers as paths for future research. Les questions de l´immigration sont les questions d´un monde globalisé où les ressources ne sont pas réparties également. Cette réalité est chaque fois plus apparente, compte tenu de la vitesse à laquelle l’information circule. Les tentatives en vue de reléguer ce phénomène à la catégorie de question subsidiaire, voire carrément dispensable, se sont révélées génératrices de nouvelles difficultés. Aujourd´hui, l´immigration doit être envisagée comme un binôme problèmes/opportunités. La culture, qui semble être le fond qui alimente les conflits, est également la source des possibilités de solutions. À cet égard, les associations d´immigrants et les associations musicales peuvent jouer un authentique rôle de service social, en contribuant à une interculturalité qui dépasse la rhétorique politique pour toucher directement la réalité sociale. Dans ce travail, nous analyserons les actions des associations d´immigrants et les associations musicales afin de voir si leur pratiques d'insertion sont véritablement cohérentes, surtout lorsqu'elles utilisent des instruments comme internet. Les résultats, même s’ils ne sont pas définitifs, présente un aspect mitigé. L’analyse exploratoire se termine avec presque autant de réponses que de questions pour la recherche future.

Abstract

Objectius: analitzar com han evolucionat les activitats culturals de les biblioteques populars de la província de Barcelona en iniciar-se el període que va de 1959 a 1975, l'anomenatObjectives: to analyse how the cultural activities of the popular libraries in the province of Barcelona evolved in the second period of Francoist Spain, that is between the years 1957 to 1975. This paper examines the type and nature of these activities; the interest they generated among the respective communities and the way in which the activities were adapted to a society that was undergoing profound changes; the importance of various social and cultural movements that emerged with particular strength in those years; the role played in them by Catalan language and culture; local alliances, and the extent to which these activities were guided by the authorities or responded to the initiative of the librarians. -- Methodology: an exhaustive report and analysis were undertaken of the activities organised in each of the popular libraries of the Provincial Council of Barcelona between 1957 and 1975, as reported in the Anuario de la Biblioteca Central y de las populares y especiales. The study examines all the popular libraries and the stable branch libraries that had a person responsible for their running. -- Results: it was during the sixties that the popular libraries were most active in promoting cultural activities. In general, they were well integrated within their respective communities and, thanks to the efforts of those responsible for their organisation, readers were able to follow closely the cultural movements that emerged in the capital: plays staged in the independent theatres, play readings, film forums, recitals of Nova Cançó promoting Catalan music etc. The libraries recovered their role as disseminators of culture, which they had had on being founded, and dedicated themselves once more to the task of promoting Catalan language and culture. Likewise, as in that earlier period, they once again became politically neutral spaces, but a neutrality that was characterised by its exclusive, non-integrative nature, which explains why they remained on the sidelines of certain social and political worries of the civil society of the day.
