Mellan lag och rätt : en rättsvetenskaplig studie av kommunala riktlinjer avseende ekonomiskt bistånd i Stockholms länEkdahl, Elin, Jansdotter, Sandra January 2007 (has links)
<p>The purpose of this essay was to examine municipal guidelines regarding the administration of the social assistance, collected from 18 municipalities in the Stockholm-area to achieve a greater understanding on how they were constructed in respect to the legislation and how the language mediated their contents. The legal aspects of the social assistance was studied through a jurisprudential method in which the legislative history, texts of laws and case laws were examined. The empirical aspect of this essay was studied through a hermeneutical method and analyzed through theories of social constructionism and legal pluralism. The results from the jurisprudential study were also used to understand how the municipal guidelines were constructed in relation to the law. The results of this essay corresponded well with previous studies in this field where considerable divergences in the approval of social assistance have been established. The guidelines allow a local adjustment of the social work stated in the Social service act, on the basis of local priorities and conditions. Our findings showed that the guidelines related to the law in varying degrees, to some extent depending on the stringency of the language used in them. We found expressions that were sometimes vague, normative and restrictive regarding the approval of social assistance. The results were discussed in respect to rule of law and the legal content of the guidelines.</p>

Challenging the Dominant Discourse of ‘Welfare Dependency’: A Multi-episode Survival Analysis of Ontario Works SpellsSmith-Carrier, Tracy A. 29 August 2011 (has links)
This dissertation examines the dominant discourse of welfare dependency and its implications for lone mothers in Ontario, Canada. This hegemonic discourse has been instrumental in positioning lone mothers as deviant, pathologically flawed and ineffective citizens. Using a repeated survival analysis, I examine the spells of participants identifying the significant variables influencing social assistance exit rates. Social constructionism and critical feminism are the theoretical lenses underpinning the analysis. The quantitative study examines the current composition of the Ontario Works caseload, interrogates the legitimacy of the welfare dependency supposition, debunks numerous social constructions surrounding welfare receipt and highlights the barriers impeding participants. The study culminates with a new understanding to counter the welfare dependency paradigm, recognizing the overlooked provisioning work of women in the neoliberal post welfare state.

Barnperspektiv : En kvalitativ studie om hur handläggare i två kommuner beaktar barnperspektivet inom ekonomiskt biståndHed, Sandra, Karlsson, Sofia January 2011 (has links)
The purpose of this study was to examine social workers working process in social assistance with focus on the child´s perspective. We were interested in learning about the existence of variations in approach and attitude between two municipalities. Question to be answered about what methods and approaches used by social workers to include the child´s perspective in the process of social assistance. Another question to be answered about what the manner in which social workers took into account the child´s perspective when the families apply for social assistance in relation to the operations and requirement. To fulfill the purpose, qualitative methods were used. Interviews were conducted with six social workers, three social workers in each municipality. The results of the interviews were analyses based on research and knowledge reviews and based on theory of street level bureaucracy. The study´s results show variations between the two municipalities in the social workers account of the child´s perspective in social assistance. The results also show that there was no established method or model in municipalities that made it clear to examiners how the child´s perspective should be taken into account in work with families. Instead the social workers of laws, policies, local conditions and the officers´ own discretion assumed how to best take in to account the child´s perspective in the work. When families applied for social assistance, social workers always tried to consider the child´s perspective. Families with children had the opportunity to be granted extra efforts that benefited children and the requirements were not as strict for families with children, as for other individuals without children who applied for social assistance.

A Contribution To The Poverty Syudies In Turkey With A Framework Of Capability Approach: The Case Of General Directorate Of Social Assistance And SolidarityArun, Mustafa Onur 01 June 2011 (has links) (PDF)
This study aims to contribute to the poverty studies in Turkey in terms of the capability approach introduced to the scientific literature by Nobel Laureate thinker Amartya Sen. The approach is closely connected with the idea of justice and particularly with the Rawls&rsquo / s model of social justice. This study&rsquo / s perception of justice is based on the idea that justice is the virtue of the institutions, but not that of individuals. Although the Rawls&rsquo / s justice analysis is approved in terms of making institutional analysis, his perception regarding to the rights are criticized since these are perceived as &ldquo / ends&rdquo / but not the &ldquo / means&rdquo / of individuals&rsquo / welfare. Therefore, it is claimed in this study that holding certain sets of rights are not significant by themselves, but how they can be converted into personal wellbeing is crucial as well. In this framework, poverty is considered as capability deprivation and it is claimed that poverty analyses based on commodity ownership are not satisfactory. As the case of this study, General Directorate of Social Assistance and Solidarity organized as the main state institution so as to alleviate the poverty in Turkey has been chosen and the question of whether the relief programs of the institution are designed to alleviate poverty by enhancing individuals&rsquo / capabilities is raised. It has been concluded in this study that (1) income centred poverty perception of the institution does not take into account the variations in needs, (2) the reliefs are designed to increase economic productivity of individuals but not the valuable capabilities and (3) the operational logic of the institution is based on managing poverty, but not alleviating it.

Previous issue date: 2013-12-17 / Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais / The disaster is a tragic and critical event that exceeds the everyday life, invaded it, messes it out. It is a phenomenon seen as unacceptable, and that surprises those who are both in and out of the scene; immediate concerns prompt mobilization of resources and exceptional measures, pressing authorities to act quickly (VALENCIO, 2012). Faced with such a phenomenon, civil defense has the institutional mission of coordinating all actions in context, including those of social assistance. However, the national reality tells us that, in Brazilian municipalities, social assistance has a significantly greater institutional presence in relation to civil defense. Howsoever, whether the presence of civil defense, either with the presence of social assistance, public assistance to those social groups affected in the disaster or that enhances their vulnerability to threatening events has been characterized by precariousness. That is, the recurrent has been a kind of care that goal by the kingdom needs (not rights), not exceeding the supply of needs, where is considered enough by the public entity the provision based on mattresses and baskets of food. Studies about politics of civil defense in disaster scenario were made by Valencio (2009, 2012), and Valencio & Valencio (2010). But, there is a gap in the debate about the strategic social care services in the context of disaster. This study aimed to throw light on this gap and analyze the reasons why, in the context of disaster, assistance to vulnerable populations remains as precarious. For this, the main objective of this study was to examine the sociological discourse and practice of social assistance in the context of disaster, using a macro and micro sociological perspective from the case study of the municipality of Ribeirão Preto/SP. Thus, study focused on the ways in which social context portrayed the disaster and, thereafter, identified the affected social groups and individuals from whom made his acting technique. In the present case, the acting technique implemented in the municipality and analyzed in this study was centrally guided in the displacement of a group of residents of some slums, recurrently subject to floods, to the housing complex Toni Wilson Garden. / O desastre é um acontecimento trágico e crítico que ultrapassa o cotidiano, invade-o, desarruma-o. É um fenômeno tido como inadmissível ante o qual se surpreendem os que se encontram tanto dentro como fora da cena; preocupações imediatas incitam a mobilização de excepcionais recursos e providências, pressionando-se autoridades para agirem rapidamente (VALENCIO, 2012). Frente a tal fenômeno, a defesa civil tem a missão institucional de coordenar todas as ações no contexto, inclusive àquelas de assistência social. Contudo, a realidade nacional nos indica que, nos municípios brasileiros, a assistência social tem uma presença institucional significativamente maior em relação à defesa civil. Todavia, seja com a presença da defesa civil, seja com a presença da assistência social, o atendimento público àqueles grupos sociais afetados no desastre ou aos que intensificam sua vulnerabilidade diante dos eventos ameaçantes tem se caracterizado pela precariedade. Ou seja, recorrente tem sido um tipo de atendimento que se baliza pelo reino das necessidades (e não dos direitos), não ultrapassando o suprimento das carências, no qual o provimento aos grupos sociais afetados em desastres com colchões e cestas-básicas seja considerado suficiente pelo ente público. Estudos sobre as políticas de defesa civil em cenário de desastres foram feitos por Valencio (2009; 2012), Valencio e Valencio (2010). Porém, há uma lacuna no debate quando se trata do atendimento estratégico da assistência social em contexto de desastre. Assim, este trabalho teve o intuito de jogar luzes nessa lacuna e analisar as razões pelas quais, no contexto de desastre, o atendimento às populações vulneráveis persiste apenas como suprimento de carências. Para isso, focou-se na atenção social em desastres e teve como objetivo principal a análise sociológica das diversas concepções de atendimento aos grupos sociais afetados, valendo-se de uma perspectiva macro e microssociológica, a partir do estudo do caso do município de Ribeirão Preto/SP. Focalizou-se os modos como os agentes de atenção social interpretaram o contexto de desastre e, a partir daí, identificaram os grupos sociais e sujeitos afetados junto aos quais realizaram sua atuação. No caso em tela, a atenção social implementada no município e analisada neste trabalho foi centralmente pautada no deslocamento de um grupo de moradores de algumas favelas, sujeitas recorrentemente às enchentes, para o conjunto habitacional do Jardim Wilson Toni.

Cenas de transformação no ensino de teatro: um estudo em serviços de apoio socioeducativoPaz, Luciana Athayde January 2010 (has links)
Esta dissertação busca pensar o ensino de teatro em três serviços de apoio socioeducativo no Município de Porto Alegre e sua implicação no processo de transformação de crianças e adolescentes em situação de vulnerabilidade social. Para tanto, descrevem-se as práticas observadas nas três instituições e analisam-se suas singularidades. O material empírico é composto por observações realizadas durante as aulas de teatro e do cotidiano das instituições no período de quatro meses; entrevistas semiestruturadas com os alunos que frequentam as aulas de teatro, com os professores e com as coordenações dos programas. A noção de prática usada nesta pesquisa compreende os ditos, as ações dos sujeitos, seu comportamento em um determinado contexto histórico e cultural. Este trabalho não delimita uma única noção de transformação, mas busca compreender as noções de transformações contidas nas práticas e como elas se relacionam aos discursos sobre as infâncias e as adolescências em situação de vulnerabilidade social. A análise desse material busca compreender como os procedimentos teatrais inseremse nessas promessas de transformação, que ora circularizam, ora resistem ao discurso de vulnerabilidade social; para tanto discute-se a noção de transformação a partir do pensamento de Stanislavski, Grotowski, Barba e Boal. / This dissertation aims thinking about the teaching of the art of acting in three socioeducational support services in Porto Alegre and its implications over the transforming process that children and adolescent pass through in situations of social vulnerability. For this purpose, we describe the observed practices in three different institutions made all long the course of some acting classes and the life lived daily in these institutions for four months, semi-structured interviews with the students that attend the acting classes, with teachers and coordinators of the program. The notion of practice used in this research comprehends the sayings, actions of the subjects and their behavior in a determined historical and social context. This work does not delimitate only one notion of transformation, but aims to understand the notions of transformations that exist in the practices and how they relate with the other discourses about childhood and adolescenthood in situations of social vulnerability. The analysis of this material tries to understand the way the acting procedures are inserted in these promises of transformation, that sometimes circularize, and sometimes resist to the discourse of social vulnerability. In order to reach that, we discuss the notion of transformations from the thoughts of Stanislavski, Grotowski, Barba and Boal.
