Making visible inter-agency working processes in children's servicesOctarra, Harla Sara January 2018 (has links)
Inter-agency working has been promoted as a way forward to improve public services, including children's services. However, the terminology is problematic because it often overlaps with other terminologies, such as partnership or collaboration. As a consequence, when describing working arrangements between people and organisations, a 'terminological quagmire' results (Leathard, 1994, p5), with 'definitional chaos' (Ling, 2000, p83). This definitional chaos is replicated in the on-going challenges found by research, on inter-agency working. While much literature has focussed on these challenges and solutions, little attention has been given to the processes that make up inter-agency working. My research explored inter-agency working processes at the frontline of children's services in Scotland. It examined formal mechanisms of working together, such as meetings and referral forms, which organised professionals' work and their relationships with one another. I used institutional ethnography to investigate inter-agency working processes. The research was conducted in one local authority in Scotland over a period of eight months and within the framework of Getting It Right For Every Child (GIRFEC), which is the country's national policy approach for children. One component of GIRFEC is the Named Person. It is a provision that would provide every child in Scotland a professional (for most children the professional is going to be their health visitor or head teacher) to help safeguard their wellbeing by means of offering advice, support and referral to other services. This service will make teachers at promoted posts responsible for coordinating support for their pupils and will change mechanisms of inter-agency working. The tenets of institutional ethnography allowed me to observe and trace the ways in which professionals worked together. The research found that when professionals worked together, they shared information and that sharing of information was complicated by the burgeoning use of technology. The working processes involved revealed the power relations between people and between people and organisations: specifically, between teachers and the Children and Families team members of the council, as the latter was responsible for maintaining the formal inter-agency working mechanisms of GIRFEC. The thesis highlights that inter-agency meetings, as formalised ways of working together, can boost professionals' confidence as they wrestle with uncertainty about their actions as professionals and how best to address children and young people's needs. This thesis also shows how policy changes changed the ways in which professionals work together. The Named Person provision of GIRFEC has ignited public debates in Scotland. This thesis is contributing to the debates by providing evidence on how this new role has changed the relationships between the teachers and other professionals. This is pertinent as the Scottish Government is currently redesigning the Named Person policy.

Tourism As An Agent Of Change IzmirGurkan, Inanc 01 December 2008 (has links) (PDF)
This thesis investigates the dynamics behind the urbanisation processes in ex-rural areas
where agricultural economy had collapsed. Being aware of local values marketable in
tourism, applying tourism as an agent of change is a pervasive vision. This approach relies
on strategies that highlight local resources to compete in the tourism market by making use
of technical means of globalisation. It is expected that the process diversifies local
economies in order to bring welfare to the entire local community. To this end, a great
functional role is attributed to local NGOs (non-governmental organisations) and local
governments on behalf of local democracy. Thus, a power process begins in the place
subjected to tourism development. The actors in this power process can be effective at
different scales like local, national and supra-national. This thesis maintains that the
transformation in rural areas cannot be kept distinct from the political processes that result in
the transformation of cities. Both transformations endeavour to solve system crises. The
transformation in rural areas should be accepted as a process of class strategy that has both
winners and losers itself. For this purpose, this thesis investigated the local agents of this
class strategy, whereas it initiates the capital accumulation process in cities by the agents of
either state apparatuses or market mechanisms. This investigation aims at the role of local
non-governmental organisations and local governments in this process. An Aegean town
which faced a rapid transformation along with tourism development is selected for the case
study because the development was known as an autonomous local movement that was not
based on a tourism development plan. The case study was based on qualitative data from
deep-interviews with local community members and the actors of tourism development.
According to the findings of the study, entrepreneurs that belong to mid-classes of big cities
initiated and conducted the development process. These actors, who had more financial
means and cultural capital than the local community, represented themselves and acted
through local NGOs / then, they examined power in order to construct rationalities of the
development in their own favour. These rationalities which were beyond capacities of local
people did not result in participation of local people in the development process. Local
people only affected the process of decision-making through property holdings.
Consequently, capital accumulation process of this mid-class, the main actors of the
development, was accelerated because local people sold or rented out their properties in the
real estate market developed by the tourism. On the other hand, the local government
formed a counter power striving to attract both national and supra-national big capital
to the town in the process.

A gestão do risco alimentar: o novo poder de polícia dos alimentos / Food risk management: the new police power of foodCíntia Guimarães Morgado Barroso Mendes 27 August 2010 (has links)
O escopo da dissertação foi cuidar das mudanças efetuadas nas categorias tradicionais do poder de polícia dos alimentos impostas pela transição da sociedade industrial e liberal à sociedade de risco através do estudo do novo modelo intervenção pública: a análise do risco alimentar. Em razão do advento do risco transterritorial, transtemporal, hipercomplexo e invisível (resíduos de pesticidas, contaminação ambiental por adubos químicos, organismos geneticamente modificados), o Estado foi desafiado a adotar uma resposta útil que acautelasse os bens jurídicos essenciais como a saúde frente aos efeitos adversos dos desenvolvimentos técnicos e científicos da indústria alimentar. A análise do risco consubstancia uma das reações estatais à necessidade de transformação, sendo composta por três etapas interligadas: avaliação de risco, gestão de risco e comunicação dos riscos. A avaliação de risco é baseada nos estudos científicos que identificam a probabilidade de ocorrência de efeitos adversos. A gestão do risco é a etapa em que é conformada a decisão sendo ponderados os interesses em jogo, devendo ser considerado o resultado da avaliação científica. Revela nova finalidade (da ordem pública ao risco tolerado), novos instrumentos (da repressão à precaução; da pontualidade à continuidade; da definitividade à provisoriedade) e novos sujeitos (do monopólio estatal à rede de atores privados e públicos, nacionais e internacionais) em relação ao modelo tradicional. A comunicação do risco, por fim, trata do intercâmbio interativo de informação e percepção sobre o risco entre os atores envolvidos na cadeia alimentar voltada à identificação precoce dos efeitos adversos, transparecendo a substituição do caráter autoritário e unilateral do poder de polícia pela relação bilateral e consensual do novo modelo. / The scope of work was taking care of changes made in the traditional categories of police power of food imposed by the transition from industrial and liberal society to risk society that will be through the study of the new model for public intervention: food risk analysis. Due to the advent of transnational, long-lived, hypercomplex and invisible risk (chemical residues of pesticides, environmental contamination by chemical fertilizers, genetically modified organism); the State was challenged to adopt a useful answer to beware the legal essentials like health from the side effects of technical and scientific developments in the food industry. Risk analysis constitutes one step further to transformation reactions, consisting of three interrelated components: risk assessment, risk management and risk communication. The risk assessment is a scientific evaluation of known or potential adverse effects. Risk management is the stage in which the decision is taking by considering risk assessment, and considering interested parties playing with weighing normative alternatives. It reveals new purpose (from public order to tolerated risk), new instruments (from repression to precautionary principle, from punctuality to continuity, from immutability to temporariness) and new subjects (from state monopoly to a network with public and private actors, national and international actors). The risk communication, finally, deals with the interactive exchange of information and perception of risk among actors involved in the food chain focused on early identification of side effects, which reveals the replacement of an authoritarian and unilateral relationship for a consensual and bilateral attitude.

Vzestup Turecka jako regionální mocnosti / Turkey's Rise as a Regional PowerLedbová, Zuzana January 2018 (has links)
The diploma thesis deals with the rise of Turkey as a regional power in the Middle East since the end of the Cold War until the present. The aim of the thesis is to analyze the country's position in the region during the period 1990-2017 and to examine factors that contributed to the growth of Turkey's power. The thoretical framework discusses important concepts and different approaches within the international relations literature to the analysis of regional powers and subsequently defines criteria for assessing whether to consider Turkey as a Middle Eastern power. The study follows chronological evolution of Turkey and its foreign policy, examining the country's material capacities as well as strategies and instruments used by Turkish governments to promote Turkey's influence at the regional level. In view of the growing power potential, ambitions and engagement in the region, the thesis has come to the conclusion that Turkey has achieved the status of one of the regional powers of the Middle East during the 1990s. The end of the bipolar international system was a factor that allowed Turkey to act more independently in the new global order. Subsequently, thanks to Turkey's economic growth, the Turkish leadership could increase the volume of funds spent on active foreign policy and thus strengthen...
