DOWNLOAD EBOOKDe los seis volúmenes de Métodos y técnicas de investigación social, éste es el que tiene un desarrollo más teórico sobre los problemas de la ciencia, el método y la investigación social. Se trata, pues, de reflexiones de tipo epistemológico, cuyo objeto específico es el estudio de los problemas filosóficos que subyacen en la ciencia, referentes a la naturaleza, la estructura y la construcción de las teorías; problemas relacionados con el método, los paradigmas subyacentes en el pensar científico, etc. Como enseñó en su momento Gino Germani, el impulsor de la sociología científica en Argentina, los problemas epistemológicos no son cuestiones sustanciales para quienes se inician en el estudio de las ciencias sociales o en las diferentes formas de intervención social (trabajo social, animación cultural, educación, etc.). De ahí el problema que enfrentó Ander-Egg para la redacción de este volumen. Hizo tres versiones diferentes: una con un desarrollo más académico y erudito, para explicar los problemas que conciernen al método y las cuestiones conexas; otra, de carácter elemental para ser utilizada como forma de divulgación, y la tercera, que es la que se publica, podríamos denominarla una "versión intermedia" entre lo académico y lo divulgativo, la que puede ser más útil a los destinatarios de este libro. El gusto por la ciencia y los problemas concernientes al método no se despierta con una dieta de epistemología, pero tampoco se logra un cierto nivel en el campo de la investigación social con una total ignorancia de los aspectos que subyacen en el mismo método y los procedimientos utilizados, especialmente en la forma de abordar la realidad. Diremos, por último, que la lectura de este volumen sólo adquiere pleno sentido teniendo en cuenta los cinco restantes. Su pretensión, modesta por supuesto, es ofrecer al estudiante una primera aproximación al trasfondo oculto en la formulación y la aplicación de los métodos de investigación social.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis book presents the results of the latest in a long-running research project using the RIMES instrument, developed by scholars in Spain. Here, RIMES is used to measure the extent of social exclusion resulting from the penal system in comparative perspective. The volume shows the results of the application of the instrument in seven criminal justice systems: Germany, Italy, Spain, Poland, England and Wales, California, and New York. Divided into two parts, the first provides a general overview of the RIMES instrument, including a discussion of the theoretical model and the methodology. The second part focuses on the results of the application of RIMES in the seven jurisdictions. The comparative results are organised according to the nine dimensions included in the RIMES instrument: control of public spaces; legal safeguards; sentencing and sanctions systems; harshest penalties; prison rules; preventive intervention; legal and social status of offenders and ex-offenders; police and criminal records; and youth criminal justice. The last chapter summarizes the comparative results and ranks them in terms of the findings on social exclusion. The book will be of interest to academics, researchers and policy-makers working in the areas of Comparative Criminal Justice, Criminology, Criminal Law and Policy.
Models of Social Intervention and Constructionism

ISBN-13: 1000637875
DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis book takes a new, critical, and multidisciplinary look at experiences and meanings of social intervention in different social contexts, taking the approaches of social constructionism as a theoretical approach. The volume collects the results of theoretical-practical experiences that social science professionals with critical and constructionist visions linked to social work intervention have carried out in different spaces. It considers the way social work intervention models are built, their foundation, and their application. It provides the findings on tested intervention models built according to the basis of social constructionism in specific social scenarios, providing interesting findings that show intervention alternatives beyond traditional approaches. The social intervention strategies discussed take place in diverse situations, including health recovery and reconstruction in breast cancer, family abandonment issues of institutionalized adolescents, institutional care of refugee families, women caregivers of children with disabilities, men who exercise violence, and more.
