Abstract

Denne rapport er en sammenfatning af gode eksempler, anbefalinger og løsningsforslag til fremtidige indsatser til fremme af velfungerende grænseoverskridende arbejdsmarkeder. Rapporten sammenfatter resultaterne af samarbejdet om udveksling af erfaringer og løsningsforslag, som parterne bag GOLIN-projektet (Grænseregionale Optimale Løsninger I Norden) har gennemført i 2003-2004 med medfinansiering fra Nordisk Ministerråd gennem Regionalsektoren, Arbejdsmarkedssektoren og den Strategiske pulje. Projektets aktiviteter er koncentreret om tre seminarer og en slutkonference. GOLIN skal betragtes som både et idékatalog og en proces. Under afslutningsdebatten på projektets opfølgningsseminar i marts 2005 blev bl.a. peget på den lærdom af GOLIN-projektet, at det er nødvendigt at tage afsæt i praksis og ikke altid kun i regler og love at bureaukratiets natur er trægt og reaktivt, og derfor har brug for at blive udfordret aktivt, kreativt og konkret - at vi skal blive bedre til at politisere problemerne via strategisk lobbyvirksomhed at et åbent og tillidsfuldt samspil centralt-regionalt-lokalt er afgørende for at løse grænseproblematikken at vi skal være konkrete i argumentation og løsninger!

Abstract

This volume examines South Uist, a small island in the soutern half of the Outer Hebrides. In the middle of the island lies the township of Bornais. This covers a particularly flat area of land which means that the three mounds can be seen all the more clearly. These mounds have been identified as being from the Viking period, with evidence of pre-Viking habitation at the site coming from Iron Age sherds. The excavation of the Bornais settlement is a long-term project, which has been going since 1994. This first volume of results of the excavation focuses on Mound 3, but includes a discussion of the topographic and geophysical survey of all the mounds. There is also considerable analysis of the environmental remains and radiocarbon dating.

Abstract

Discussões sobre drogas e Aids ocupam, a todo momento, noticiários e mentes. Porém, a maneira como vêm sendo encaminhadas é pouco democrática e muito superficial, com tendência a manter as generalizações feitas até então. Como tratar os usuários de drogas legais e ilegais? Simplesmente reprimindo-os? Como proteger-se do HIV, já que a noção de grupos de risco já não se sustenta mais? Para aprofundar as reflexões sobre estes temas, a maioria dos autores, assim como a organizadora, desenvolveu o curso de extensão universitária Drogas e Aids: questões de direitos humanos, iniciado em 1996 na Uerj. Grande parte dos artigos trata de temas discutidos em sala de aula ao longo dos três primeiros anos do curso. Grande contribuição para quem pensa - e age - na área, no mundo.

Abstract

The refusal or reception of refugees has had serious implications for the social policies and social realities of numerous countries in east and west. Exploring experiences, interpretations and practices of 'refugees,' 'the internally displaced' and 'returnees' in or emerging from societies in violent conflict, this volume challenges prevailing orthodoxies and encourages new developments in refugee studies. It also addresses the ethics and politics of interventions by professionals and policy makers, using case studies of refugees from or in South Asia, the Middle East, North Africa, Europe
