Abstract

Die im vorliegenden Band dokumentierte Tagung hatte es sich zum Ziel gesetzt, eine genauso internationale wie interdisziplinäre Forschergruppe zum Thema ";Soziale Kontrolle"; zu befragen. Wenngleich mit Athen und Rom die antike mediterrane Welt im Vordergrund stand, war der kulturelle und historische Bezugsrahmen großzügig bemessen, so dass aktuelle theoretische Modelle, begriffsgeschichtliche Diskurse und komparative Perspektiven Eingang finden konnten. Die Autor(inn)en nutzten die ganze Bandbreite der Untersuchungsfelder und spürten Formen sozialer Kontrolle in Glaube und Aberglaube, in gesellschaftlichen und sozialen Ge- und Verboten, in Familientraditionen, geschlechtsspezifischen Rollenverständnissen, wirtschaftlichen Netzwerken und nicht zuletzt in politischen Interaktionen auf. Im Ergebnis waren sich alle Forscher(innen) einig: Soziale Kontrolle wird in Staat und Gesellschaft ständig neu erfunden, sie ist nicht starr und endgültig, sondern wandelbar und anpassungsfähig.

Abstract

A gestão da segurança pública no Brasil é um debate que evidencia a relação entre Polícia e Sociedade. A visão apresentada neste livro acirra a discussão. Tendo como objeto de estudo a Polícia baiana, a autora Ivone Freire Costa focaliza as ações policiais no bairro da Liberdade - o conglomerado da violência e da criminalidade mais populoso e complexo da cidade de Salvador. Desta forma, são avaliadas a falta de confiança, o medo e a insegurança que permeiam a relação entre cidadãos e policiais. A principal finalidade da obra é incentivar a proposta de co-responsabilidade social entre Polícia e Sociedade de maneira positiva, harmônica e produtiva. É evidenciando as falhas na segurança pública e a crescente busca de conformidade social do cidadão no mundo do ilegal, que a autora sugere caminhos para o tão almejado pacto de paz.

Abstract

Como atuam os conselhos de saúde? São realmente eficazes? Há manipulações, fraudes? Esta obra tata da necessidade do controle da sociedade sobre as ações do Estado e sobre a alocação dos recursos públicos para que sejam atendidos os interesses da coletividade. Particulariza tal controle sobre a política de saúde, abordando os conselhos de saúde como mecanismo institucionalizado para este fim. Descreve o processo de mercantilização da saúde e a influência do ideário neoliberal que vem dificultando a efetivação do SUS e desencadeando a desuniversalização e a privatização da saúde. Apresenta o resultado de um estudo de caso realizado em um conselho municipal de saúde brasileiro no qual avalia até que ponto este controlou de fato os recursos destinados ao Fundo Municipal de Saúde.

Abstract

La presente obra tuvo como objeto de investigación las normas y las transgresiones ocurridas en la vida familiar, en especial de las mujeres, en Cartagena de Indias y La Habana, las principales ciudades puertos del Caribe junto con Veracruz y Portobelo, entre 1759 y 1808. La consulta de una amplia variedad de fuentes localizadas, entre otras instituciones, en el Archivo General de Indias en España, el Archivo General de la Nación en Colombia y el Archivo Nacional de Cuba, así como la aplicación del método de la crítica histórica, permitieron demostrar que la legislación y los discursos producidos por el despotismo ilustrado con el fin de controlar la vida familiar reforzaron la normatividad patriarcal, destinada a consolidar la subordinación femenina ante la autoridad de los varones. Esto generó múltiples situaciones conflictivas y transgresoras, en las que las mujeres asumieron un rol protagónico como una alternativa válida para la defensa de sus derechos.

Abstract

With Mexico’s War on Crime as the backdrop, Making Things Stick offers an innovative analysis of how surveillance technologies impact governance in the global society. More than just tools to monitor ordinary people, surveillance technologies are imagined by government officials as a way to reform the national state by focusing on the material things—cellular phones, automobiles, human bodies—that can enable crime. In describing the challenges that the Mexican government has encountered in implementing this novel approach to social control, Keith Guzik presents surveillance technologies as a sign of state weakness rather than strength and as an opportunity for civic engagement rather than retreat.

Abstract

La vidéosurveillance fait désormais partie des outils utilisés dans les politiques sécuritaires. Les récentes évolutions techniques rendent son usage de plus en plus intrusif dans la vie privée mais aussi dans l'espace public. Cet ouvrage explore une dimension encore inédite de la vidéosurveillance. Elle réside dans le caractère automatique de la détection des « comportements anormaux » dans l'espace public. L'anormalité est un enjeu fondamental dans la définition de la citoyenneté, en établissant une frontière entre ce qui est jugé acceptable et ce qui doit être réprimé. Or, des projets de recherches appliqués récents tentent de coupler l'usage de la vidéosurveillance avec une évaluation automatique de l'anormalité. Désormais, les algorithmes contribuent à définir ces comportements anormaux et donc, dessinent les figures de l'anormal. L'automaticité modifie considérablement les capacités d'appréciation de la normalité, jusqu'ici de la compétence du juge et des pouvoirs publics. La convergence des techniques (vidéo, base de données informatiques…) contribue à modifier profondément les frontières de l'espace public et, par conséquent, de l'espace démocratique. L'ouvrage présente les débats interdisciplinaires qui ont eu lieu à l'occasion d'une application technique actuellement en cours. S'interroger sur ce qu'est un comportement anormal permet de rappeler les modalités d'élaboration de la normalité dans une démocratie.

Abstract

Authority and Control in the Countryside looks at the economic, religious, political and cultural instruments that local and regional powers in the late antique to early medieval Mediterranean and Near East used to manage their rural hinterlands. Measures of direct control – land ownership, judicial systems, garrisons and fortifications, religious and administrative appointments, taxes and regulation – and indirect control – monuments and landmarks, cultural styles and artistic models, intellectual and religious influence, and economic and bureaucratic standard-setting – are examined to reconstruct the various means by which authority was asserted over the countryside. Unified by its thematic and spatial focus, this book offers an array of interdisciplinary approaches, allowing for important comparisons across a wide but connected geographical area in the transition from the Sasanian and Roman to the Islamic period. Contributors: Arezou Azad and Hugh Kennedy, Sobhi Bouderbala, Michele Campopiano, Alain Delattre, Jessica Ehinger, Simon Ford, James Howard-Johnston, Elif Keser-Kayaalp, Marie Legendre, Javier Martínez Jiménez, Harry Munt, Annliese Nef and Vivien Prigent, Marion Rivoal and Marie-Odile Rousset, Gesa Schenke, Petra Sijpesteijn, Peter Verkinderen, Luke Yarbrough, Khaled Younes.

Abstract

Based on a reading of contemporary philosophical arguments, this book accounts for how punishment has provided audiences with pleasure in different historical contexts. Watching tragedies, contemplating hell, attending executions, or imagining prisons have generated pleasure, according to contemporary observers, in ancient Greece, in medieval Catholic Europe, in the early-modern absolutist states, and in the post-1968 Western world. The pleasure was often judged morally problematic, and raised questions about which desires were satisfied, and what the enjoyment was like. This book offers a research synthesis that ties together existing work on the pleasure of punishment. It considers how the shared joys of punishment gradually disappeared from the public view at a precise historic conjuncture, and explores whether arguments about the carnivalesque character of cruelty can provide support for the continued existence of penal pleasure. Towards the end of this book, the reader will discover, if willing to go along and follow desire to places which are full of pain and suffering, that deeply entwined with the desire for punishment, there is also the desire for social justice. An accessible and compelling read, this book will appeal to students and scholars of criminology, sociology, philosophy and all those interested in the pleasures of punishment.

Abstract

This open access publication deals with the operationalisation of the welfare state as an independent variable. To study how welfare states affect social inequality, individual behaviour, attitudes and more in different countries, an empirical operationalisation of the welfare state or specific elements of social policy is required. However, this operationalisation is fraught with some important problems. These problems essentially relate to one point: while there are a large number of contributions dealing with the measurement of differences between welfare states per se and as a dependent variable, there is a lack of feasible recommendations for a standardised operationalisation of welfare stateness as an independent variable. So far, there has been no systematic investigation of how such different approaches may affect the results and their comparability. Also missing is an in-depth conceptual discussion of which features of the welfare state are particularly relevant for explaining certain effects. This book fills both gaps. First, it exposes the pitfalls of existing approaches and shows how much empirical results can vary depending on the operationalisation chosen. Second, it proposes a framework for a standardised conceptualisation and operationalisation of social policies as independent variables that constrains operational decisions in a theoretically meaningful way. About the author Katharina Kunißen worked as a research associate at the Institute of Sociology at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz. Her main research interests include social inequality and comparative welfare state research. She has been working at the Federal Statistical Office since 2019. .
