Civil Society At The Boundaries Of Public And Private Spheres: The Internal Dynamics Of Three Csos In Turkey

Cengiz, Kurtulus 01 May 2005 (has links) (PDF)
This study tries to understand the internal dynamics of the civil society organizations in Turkey on the experiences of three CSOs: the Ankara Branches of KADER, MAZLUMDER and IMO by focusing on the intra&ndash / organizational practices (the decision making processes, elections, general meetings, division of labor, basic conflicts and divergences, the disagreements, the way of deliberation and consensus). It tries to shed light on the transformative potential of the CSO&rsquo / s in public sphere as civil organizations themselves in time both in the sense of their political stances and organizational structure. The research was designed in the form of a case study including both the depth interwiews and participant observations. In this framework, ten depth-interviews were made with members having different qualities for each of these CSOs and participant observations were realized in the general meetings, elections and activities of these organizations. Since the aim of this study is to understand the contribution of the CSOs to the public sphere, the research findings were interpreted and considered basically in the light of the two main theoretical positions: the deliberative (Habermas) and agonistic (Laclau and Mouffe) democracy. The study espoused a post-structuralist conception of democracy combined with a weakened model of deliberation and dialogue pointing out the requirement of the existential publicity of man (Arendt) in the world. In this context, this study tries to discuss the following questions within the framework of the public sphere experience of the three CSOs throughout the thesis. Is the concept of civil society a proper concept for understanding the peculiar experience of Turkey (with reference to the historical context of civil associational life in Turkey and the recent civil resurrection)? Do civil organizations have the capacity to serve for deepening and consolidation of democracy in public sphere? Are these civil organizations democratic and participatory with regard to their intra-organizational structures and decision-making processes? And, more importantly, do they have any capacity to influence the process of democratic transformation in Turkey?

Barriers in community participation and rural development.

Cobbinah, J.E. January 2011 (has links)
The concept of participation seems to reflect in most development programmes that involve people at the grassroots level. In Ghana, the introduction of the decentralization programme in the late 1980s that aimed at promoting effective, comprehensive and rapid development, more especially in the rural areas also adopted participatory approach. The approach led to the introductory of district assembly system which was to enhance the involvement of people at the grassroots in participatory activities. However, since the introduction of the decentralisation system to promote grassroots level participation, the people are still inactive and the level of involvement in development decision-making still remains weak. To clearly understand these problems, the thesis has aimed at answering the following research questions; how are rural people involved in participatory practice in the development activities in their area; what barriers affect and hinder the active participation of rural people and how could these be addressed? Answers to those questions helped to examine the nature of participation at the grassroots level; understand how the district assembly adopt participatory practice and to ascertain the nature of barriers that hinder effective participatory practice. Using a case study approach for the investigation, an interpretivists and constructivists were the philosophical underpinnings of the investigation. The data was gathered through the use of focus group discussions and one-to-one informal interviews. It was observed that, participation continues to reflect in most rural development programmes, but there are key barriers that still continue to hamper the effectiveness of participatory practice. Power relations, threats, intimidations and more especially the use of juju and witchcraft which never featured in most development literature are among the major barriers that continue to weaken local people readiness to actively participate. Most rural people feel threaten to participate for the fear of being bewitched or killed through the use of juju, witchcraft or black magical powers. Without critically and effectively addressing those bottlenecks and barriers, and put community members at the pivot of decision-making, the use of outsiders¿ knowledge and ideas alone to address the problems of participation with the hope of improving the lives of the rural people will not yield any significant result. / Title page missing

Os cursos de qualificação profissional básica de uma OSCIP na Fundação CASA: modos de educar por meio e entre Instituições / The professional qualifying courses in an OSCIP of CASA Foundation: ways of teaching by means of and between institutions

Machado, Anita da Costa Pereira 07 April 2015 (has links)
A educação profissional no Brasil esteve marcada, desde os seus primeiros registros, em administrar os efeitos da exclusão por meio da inserção, primeiramente, dos órfãos e desvalidos e, depois, dos menores infratores em instituições disciplinares e correcionais. Processo que forjou subjetividades em um registro da falta e do desvio com aprisionamento de corpos, bem como dos modos de produzir vida. No presente, os agora denominados adolescentes em conflito com a lei também estão inseridos em práticas específicas de educação para o trabalho, dentre as quais aquelas protagonizadas por organizações não governamentais. Esta pesquisa volta-se para essa prática educativa específica, pois objetiva investigar como os cursos de qualificação profissional básica de uma OSCIP habitam o campo de forças da Fundação CASA. Os subsídios teóricos e conceituais que compõem com essa problematização localizam-se nas contribuições de: Foucault, Spinoza, da esquizoanálise e da análise institucional. Subsídios estes que se articulam permitindo pensar o sujeito não como essência e sim como produção, a partir de relações de saber e poder por meio e entre instituições. Forjado pelo encontro com os diferentes campos em jogo (teórico-metodológico, de pesquisa e de forças), este estudo tem como hipótese que a complexidade da realidade, da subjetividade e dos encontros vida a fora produzem uma diversidade de modos de existir, educar e trabalhar não submetida exclusivamente a formas instituídas. Buscou-se, assim, compreender as relações institucionais em jogo e suas repercussões no referido trabalho educativo, a partir da implicação do pesquisador com o campo. Deste modo, foi empreendida uma pesquisa-intervenção com os educadores de qualificação profissional de uma OSCIP por meio da técnica do grupo focal. O encontro com os diferentes campos teceu relações de sentido, o que viabilizou entrever, entre as formas instituídas, modos de educar potentes em desestabilizar aprisionamentos subjetivos. Tal desestabilização, todavia, só ganha força em condições de produção peculiares. Dito de outra forma, esta pesquisa reconheceu que os cursos ora estudados são operados por modos de ser educador, que ganham ou perdem força de agir e compreender a partir das relações produzidas por meio e entre instituições. As conexões tecidas e desencadeadas pelo educador e pela OSCIP são forças que delineiam uma posição política de manutenção ou ruptura de modos de educar para o trabalho adolescentes em conflito com a lei. Nesse campo de forças, as práticas de educação profissional ganham intensidade quando aliadas a uma formação de educadores que os afete, mantendo o campo problemático e intensivo de derivas potentes em desestabilizar modos aprisionados de produzir vida / Professional education in Brazil has been marked, from the beginning, by the intention of dealing with the effects of social exclusion by means of adopting social inclusion, firstly of the orphans and the underprivileged and, later on, of the juvenile lawbreakers from disciplinary and corrective institutions. This process has forged subjectivities into a register of failure and of deviance, with the imprisonment of the bodies and of the ways lives are constructed. At present, the so-called teenagers in conflict with the law are also involved with specific practices of education geared to work, amongst which are those enforced by Non-Governmental Organizations (NGO). This research work focus on such educational practices, for it aims at investigating how the beginners professional qualifying courses held by a Public Interest Civil Society Organization (OSCIP, in the initials in Portuguese) inhabit the field of strengths of CASA Foundation. The theoretical and conceptual subsidies which support this problematization are based on the contributions by Foucault, Spinoza, as well as on schizoanalysis and institutional analysis. These subsidies articulate between them to allow thinking about the subject not as essence, but as production, from the perspective of the relations between knowledge and power by means of and between institutions. Undertaken in the coming together with the different fields at play (theoretical-methodological, of research and of strengths), this study offers as hypotheses that the complexity of reality, of subjectivity and of encounters throughout life, creates a diversity of ways of living, educating and working which are not submitted exclusively to institutionalized patterns. One has sought, therefore, to understand the institutional relations at play and their repercussion on the mentioned educational work, from the perspective of the researcher as she is implicated into the field. Thus, an intervention-research was carried out with the application of the focal group technique and which involved the professional qualifying course educators from an OSCIP. Coming in touch with the different fields allowed for the construction of meaning relations, what made possible to understand, amongst the institutionalized patterns, ways of educating with the potential of destabilizing subjective imprisonments. Such destabilizing, however, acquires strength only in unique conditions of production. In other words, it has been recognized that the courses surveyed in this study are operated by ways of being an educator, which acquire or lose strength for acting and comprehend on the basis of relations created by means of or between institutions. The connections woven and unleashed by the educators and by OSCIP are strengths which outline a political stand of either maintenance or rupture of the ways the teenagers in conflict with the law are educated for work. Within this field, the professional educational practices gain intensity when combined with a meaningful teacher formation, one which keeps the field problematic and adrift, powerful in destabilizing imprisoned ways of creating life
