Abstract

Neste trabalho etnográfico, rico em pormenores e sensibilidade, Sally Cole toma como ponto de partida os relatos de cinco mulheres portuguesas, que descrevem as suas vidas numa comunidade pesqueira rural. Combinando habilmente histórias pessoais com análises económicas e culturais, Sally Cole afasta-se radicalmente da imagem das mulheres como seres sexuais que prevalece na literatura antropológica da Europa e do Mediterrâneo. A sua estratégia notoriamente diferente - a focalização das mulheres enquanto trabalhadoras - reflecte a forma como as próprias mulheres se definem a si mesmas e dálhes a voz forte e ressonante que tanto a nova etnografia como a escola feminista defendem. De acordo com esta nova perspectiva, Sally Cole propõe uma importante crítica do paradigma dominante que faz enraizar as relações entre os sexos no Sul da Europa no código de honra e vergonha.

Abstract

Since 1963, when the African integration project was born, regional Economic Communities (RECs) have been an indispensable part of the continent's deeper socioeconomic and political integration. More than half a century later, such regional institutions continue to evolve, keeping pace with an Africa that is transforming itself amid challenges and opportunities. RECs represent a huge potential to be the engines that drive the continent's economic growth and development as well as being vehicles through which a sense of a continental community is fostered. It is critical therefore that citizens understand the multi-faceted and bureaucratic operations of regional institutions in order to use them to advance their collective interests.

Abstract

Regional Economic Communities andPeacebuilding in Africa This book outlines challenges to the effective operation of regional economic communities (RECs) with regards to peacebuilding in Africa. Critically examining these issues from an interdisciplinary perspective, with a focus on comparative analysis of the status, role, and performancesof the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) and Intergovernmental Authority on Development (IGAD), it examines particular constraints to their effective par-ticipation in regional initiatives.Focussing on inadequate technical capabilities, the complicity of state and non-state actors in conflicts within a region, and the domestic politics of member states, it additionally addresses related theories and practices of peacekeeping, security, development, and the peacebuilding nexus. It also engages provisioning, regionalism, and regional peacekeeping interventions, the legal and institutional framework of RECs, and civil society and peacebuild-ing. Fundamentally, the book asks how effective the alliances and partnerships are in promoting regional peace and security and how much they are compromised by the intervention of external powers and actors, exploring new ideas and actions that may strengthen capacities to address the peacebuilding challenges on the con-tinent effectively. This book will be of key interest to scholars and students of African politics and studies, peace and security studies, regionalism studies, policy practitioners in the field of African peacebuilding, and more broadly to international relations.

Abstract

Taking the empirical case of the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS), this volume locates the peacekeeping operations of ECOWAS within an expanded post-Cold War conceptualization of humanitarian intervention. It examines the organization's capacity to protect civilians at risk in civil conflicts and to facilitate the processes of peacemaking and post-war peace-building.

Abstract

"Women judges are playing increasingly prominent roles in many African judiciaries, yet there remains very little comparative research on the subject. Drawing on extensive cross-national data and theoretical and empirical analysis, this book provides a timely and broad-ranging assessment of gender and judging in African judiciaries. Employing different theoretical approaches, the book investigates how women have fared within domestic African judiciaries, as both actors and litigants. It explores how women negotiate multiple hierarchies to access the judiciary, and how gender-related issues are handled in courts. The chapters in the book provide policy, theoretical and practical prescriptions to the challenges identified, and offer recommendations for the future directions of gender and judging in the post-Covid-19 era, including the role of technology, artificial intelligence, social media, and institutional transformations that can help promote women's rights. Bringing together specific cases from Kenya, Uganda, Ghana, Nigeria, Zambia, Tanzania and South Africa, and regional bodies such as ECOWAS and the African Commission on Human and Peoples' Rights, and covering a broad range of thematic reflections, this book will be of interest to scholars, students and practitioners of African law, judicial politics, judicial training, and gender studies. It will also be useful to bilateral and multilateral donor institutions financing gender sensitive judicial reform programs particularly in Africa"--

Abstract

O livro que o leitor tem entre mãos, da autoria de Graça Índias Cordeiro, resgata um espaço emblemático e amplamente conotado da realidade urbana e do imaginário colectivo lisboeta - o bairro da Bica. A abordagem proposta combina a mais sólida ortodoxia antropológica com os elementos analíticos e apologéticos que têm forjado dialogicamente a própria identidade de bairro no contexto mais amplo da cidade. Percorrendo fontes tão díspares e abundantes como literatura olisiponense, fontes censitárias, urbanísticas, e históricas municipais e, especialmente, dando voz aos actores sociais de bairro, a autora constrói, de forma miniaturizada, a histórica social de algumas famílias, das suas relações sociais e de parentesco, de formas de associativismo, recuperando a memória histórica dos Bicaenses. Inserindo a análise da Bica no quadro contextual do processo histórico, cultural e social lisboeta, como um todo integrado e interactivo, Um Lugar na Cidade, mais do que um estudo de um bairro na cidade, é, assim, um estudo da cidade de Lisboa.
