Around two Fundamental Concepts: Participation and Inclusive Society1.3. Social Inclusive Policies1.4. Social Movements1.5. The Role of Social Work in Europe1.6. Regarding the Content of this Book AbstractThe introduction presents the subject matter of the book and gives an insight in how the publication has been developed in the "European Research Network: Inclusive Society and the Role of Social Work". In addition, it provides an overview of the structure and the chapters of the book. 2. Country Studies 2.1. Inclusive Society and Social Work - The Netherlands (Maria Josй Freitas, Jhoy Dassen, Chantal van Lieshout, Samira Louali, MarijkeSniekers, Carin Wevers) 2.1.1. Inclusive Society - A Developing Discourse2.1.2. Illustrating the Participation Paradox2.1.3. Observations AbstractConcepts like inclusion have been overtaken by the rhetoric of the Dutch Government's restructuring of national welfare policy and its proclaimed 'participation society'. Dutch citizens are being called upon to find ways to realize their own well-being and to build a better society together. The underlying ideal of the participation society - everybody is included and everyone can take part - can also be deemed as a moral imperative. For some participation is a legal obligation. Those unable to meet that standard run the risk of exclusion. As a result, the demand for participation, and the requirements as to the how and where of this participation, combine to achieve the exact opposite of its intended purpose: the participation paradox. Social workers are part of the change processes occurring in the Netherlands and they are taking on a variety of new roles in their plight to support the more vulnerable members of society. 2.2. Inclusive Societies and Social Work: the Spanish Case (Cаndid Palacнn, Josefa Fernбndez Barrera, Josep Maria Mesquida Gonzбlez, Marнa Virginia Matulič Domandzič, Ariadna Munte Pascual, Irene de Vicente Zueras) 2.2.1. The Main Actors Involved in the Discussion for an Inclusive Society: The Role of the Public and the Third Sectors2.2.2. The Case Study: The Four Pieces of Research Involved2.2.3. Social Work and Inclusion in Relation to Target Groups Being Part of the Research AbstractThe subject is the notion of inclusive society in relation to Social Work role, and the objective is to investigate the trajectories through the social space of four groups whose circumstances question the mentioned concept. The subjects of the research are homeless people, immigrants, older gays and Roma migrant women. They have been examined separately in four research studies, looking for the common aspects of all of them in relation to the issue of the inclusive society and the role of Social Work. Most of the research shows the importance of relational processes through the concepts of the generation of spaces of trust, proximity, accompaniment and identification mechanism, with the knowledge of the other. In addition, collective interventions have facilitated actions to raise awareness, social transformation, networking and participation. The third sector is configured as a space of attention, confidence and reference that seems absent in public services. 2.3. Inclusive society within the frame of transition society: an example from the Republi
Описание: The Political Economy of Policy Ideas contributes to the growing scholarly literature on ideational political economy and labour market regulation by providing a systematic analysis of the idea of active inclusion and its three core principles: activation, conditionality and personalization.
In The Politics of Social Inclusion and Labor Representation, Heather Connolly, Stefania Marino, and Miguel Mart?nez Lucio compare trade union responses to immigration and the related political and labour market developments in the Netherlands, Spain, and the United Kingdom. The labor movement is facing significant challenges as a result of such changes in the modern context. As such, the authors closely examine the idea of social inclusion and how trade unions are coping with and adapting to the need to support immigrant workers and develop various types of engagement and solidarity strategies in the European context.
Traversing the dramatically shifting immigration patterns since the 1970s, during which emerged a major crisis of capitalism, the labor market, and society, and the contingent rise of anti-immigration sentiment and new forms of xenophobia, the authors assess and map how trade unions have to varying degrees understood and framed these issues and immigrant labor. They show how institutional traditions, and the ways that trade unions historically react to social inclusion and equality, have played a part in shaping the nature of current initiatives. The Politics of Social Inclusion and Labor Representation concludes that we need to appreciate the complexity of trade-union traditions, established paths to renewal, and competing trajectories of solidarity. While trade union organizations remain wedded to specific trajectories, trade union renewal remains an innovative, if at times, problematic and complex set of choices and aspirations.

Описание: In order to be well-governed, a democracy needs voters who are fluent in the language of economics and who can do some quantitative analysis of social and economic policy. We also need a well-trained cadre of researchers and journalists who have more advanced skills in these fields. Many students in other disciplines are drawn to economics so that they can engage with policy debates on environmental sustainability, inequality, the future of work, financial instability, and innovation. But, when they begin the study of economics, they find that courses appear to have little to do with these pressing policy matters, and are designed primarily for students who want to study the subject as their major, or even for those destined to go on to post-graduate study in the field. The result: policy-oriented students often find they have to choose between a quantitative and analytical course of study - economics - that is only minimally policy oriented in content and that downplays the insights of other disciplines, or a policy and problem-oriented course of study that gives them little training in modelling or quantitative scientific methods. Economy, Society, and Public Policy changes this. It has been created specifically for students from social science, public policy, business studies, engineering, biology, and other disciplines who are not economics majors. If you are one of these students, we want to engage, challenge, and empower you with an understanding of economics. We hope you will acquire the tools to articulate reasoned views on pressing policy problems. You may even decide to take more courses in economics as a result. The book is also being used successfully in courses for economics, business, and public policy majors, as well as in economics modules for masters' courses in Public Policy and in Philosophy, Politics and Economics (PPE). This textbook--the print complement to CORE's open-access online eBook--is the result of a worldwide collaboration among researchers, educators, and students who are committed to bringing the socially relevant insights of economics to a broader audience.
