131	The Monster In My Closet Neves, Mariana January 2024 (has links) In waking life, in dreams. As Leonor attends the last year of catholic school in Leiria, Portugal, a new girl joins the class, and Rita is plagued by visions of a dragon following her relentlessly. The Monster in My Closet is a graphic novel about confronting one’s inner demons against the backdrop of a wider belief system. It depicts a journey of acceptance and realization of one’s queerness while living in a conservative, Catholic city; wrestling with lack of references, teenage insecurities, internalized homophobia, compulsive heterosexuality, and religious upbringing. The comics draw inspiration from medieval illuminations and marginalia, subverting Christian aesthetics by exploring the tension between the Word of God and the margins, insiders and outsiders, heteronormativity and queerness, and the process of othering. / <p>Mariana Neves</p><p>Artist Name: <strong>Mariana Sou</strong></p> queer queerness Catholic catholic catholicism Catholicism Religion religion mural risoprinting Queer Gay Lesbian Comics comics medieval art Medieval Art illuminations historiated initial marginalia medieval lettering bookbinding margins edge marginalized portugal Portugal dragons dragon monsters monster christianity graphic novel risograph RISO riso gilding queer comics queer graphic novel St. George St. Michael St. George and the Dragon Design Design Visual Arts Bildkonst Art History Konstvetenskap
132	Venezuela's Medical Revolution: Can the Cuban Medical Model be Applied in Other Countries? Walker, Christopher 03 December 2013 (has links) This thesis analyzes the Cuban medical adaptation in Venezuela called Misión Barrio Adentro (MBA) and seeks to answer the question of whether MBA shows promise as a health system that improves medical accessibility for impoverished and marginalized populations. In many cases MBA succeeds by: utilizing a free universal health care system; locating health centres in previously underserved areas; providing medical education scholarships to populations from non-traditional backgrounds; creating a catchment system based on medical accessibility; scaling up the medical workforce to 60,000 community doctors by 2019; and broadening the very praxis of what health means in a Latin American social medicine approach. However, some challenges remain including issues of corruption, fragmentation, and polarization. Issues regarding internal and external migration of Misión Sucre-trained physicians remain to be comprehensively evaluated. However, the capacitation of non-traditional medical personnel, imbued with conciencia, is significant and could well become an important example for other countries. international development human development health care as a human right Venezuela Cuba South-South cooperation Mission Barrio Adentro Mission Sucre Latin American social medicine Hugo Chávez medical internationalism structural violence health care as a human right medical education preventive and proactive care medical accessibility community-oriented primary care rural-urban health disparity health in all policies political will transnationalization of policy learning capacitation soft policy tools polarization non-traditional medical backgrounds marginalized populations poverty conciencia bio-psycho-social spheres of health
