The first republican university in Latin America and social rights: an analysis from the work of Bolivar and Sanchez Carrion

The emancipation of the South American countries was aimed at achieving the freedom and dignity of the oppressed peoples for three centuries and claiming their rights. In this sense, the article is the result of a study whose objective was to analyze social rights in thought, the work of the Liberator Simón Bolívar and his General Minister José Faustino Sánchez Carrión, as well as their significance over time. Social rights are those that are aligned with human dignity and linked to the achievement of substantial objectives such as access to work, health, education, justice, among others. From the documentary analysis it is observed that these rights were originally consigned in 1824 by the Liberator and his minister at the time of founding the first republican University in the final phase of the emancipation of Peru and South America, but gradually they were legalized in the social constitutionalism of many countries during the twentieth century, which highlights its importance in the line of achieving human dignity. Social rights had as precursors the aforementioned heroes of freedom, defenders of human dignity and visionaries who were ahead of their time.

Duración, tiempo y psicoanálisis. Reflexiones en torno a la brevedad del tratamiento. Reflexiones en torno a la brevedad del tratamiento

Las inserciones institucionales actuales del psicoanálisis –instituciones de salud, educación, justicia, entre otras– pueden tensionar los principios que rigen esta práctica, tal como Freud lo anticipó en 1919. Una de estas tensiones dice relación con la duración de los tratamientos. Este artículo aborda cómo se ha teorizado sobre este problema mediante la sistematización y comparación de dos aproximaciones que han respondido de manera distinta a esta interrogante: la escuela inglesa de psicoterapia psicoanalítica breve y la experiencia de los CPCT en Francia. Para ello se abordan elementos de contexto histórico, como también la conceptualización y criterios clínicos sobre la determinación de la duración del tratamiento. Se valoran las posibilidades que estas dos perspectivas ofrecen a la práctica del psicoanálisis en instituciones, en particular en lo referente al manejo de la duración del tratamiento, al mismo tiempo que se abren perspectivas para pensar más radicalmente las concepciones del tiempo en psicoanálisis. -- The current institutional insertions of psychoanalysis –institutions of health, education, justice, among others– can put stress on the principles that govern this practice, as Freud anticipated in 1919. This article deals with how the duration of treatments has been theorized in order to systematize and compare two approaches that have responded differently to this question: the Anglo-Saxon school of brief psychoanalytic psychotherapy and the experience of the CPCTs in France. For this purpose, elements of historical context are discussed, as well as the conceptualization and clinical criteria for determining the duration of treatment. The possibilities that these two perspectives offer to the practice of psychoanalysis in institutions are appreciated, about the handling of the duration of treatment, at the same time that perspectives are opened to think more radically about the conceptions of time in psychoanalysis.

Stakeholder engagement and the future of Irish public–private partnerships

Building on recent works that stress the importance of stakeholder engagement in partnerships, we propose a novel benchmarking framework for the evaluation of public–private partnerships. This framework describes mutuality and the preservation of organisational identity as the ideal characteristics of partnerships because they, in turn, encourage stakeholder support for public–private partnerships. Applying this framework to infrastructure public–private partnerships in Ireland, we note that mutual accountability has been weakened following the financial crisis. Meanwhile, consultation with clients such as key public–private partnership stakeholders, which would help articulate organisational identities, remains patchy across the education, justice and health public–private partnership that we investigate. Nonetheless, there are sectoral differences. In education, consultation centres on school principals while ignoring teaching staff and trade unions. In justice, attention is focused primarily on judges. Similarly, in health sector public–private partnerships, there is a strong focus on clinicians. Overall, private sector-driven consultation efforts are primarily pragmatic, with a focus on preventing delays and the dissatisfaction of key clients who could prevent future projects from materialising. We suggest that the combination of this calculated approach to consultation, together with the delegation of public–private partnership contracting to an arm’s-length government agency, is likely to promote a similar depoliticisation of Irish public–private partnerships as has been observed in other countries. We argue that the potentially harmful stakeholder disengagement that this might encourage can be addressed through a concerted set of measures focusing on improved transparency of decision-making, as well as frameworks that mandate client and public consultation. Points for practitioners Research has highlighted the importance of mutual accountability and the preservation of organisational identity in ensuring that public–private partnerships attract public participation and receive public approval. We investigate public–private partnerships in education, justice and health in Ireland, a country that is widely considered an exemplary public–private partnership practitioner. We observe that consultation by private sector public–private partnership participants with client organisations in these sectors is largely motivated by a desire to prevent hold-ups and secure future business rather than seeking to engage with a broad range of users and stakeholders. Together with the existing lack of evidence of benefits from public–private partnerships, this situation is likely to lead to dissatisfaction with the policy. Indeed, political parties critical of public–private partnerships have been able to significantly increase their share of the vote in a recent national election. Our conclusion is that such dissatisfaction is avoidable if the Irish government improves transparency around public–private partnership decision-making while strengthening requirements for public and client consultation.

Accountability from the Ground Up: Uncovering the Limitations and Possibilities of Organizing for Community Schools in Philadelphia

This paper focuses on the evolution of community schools from a grassroots organizing effort to a formal initiative in Philadelphia. The authors implemented a critical participatory action research project to examine the process and impact of the education organizing. We present two narratives to illustrate the potential and limitations of two divergent community school approaches. We argue that education justice movements must develop processes and metrics of accountability to effectively organize for transformative community-driven education. Findings provide insights to communities organizing for public education in other contexts and locales and an example of how research can support social justice movements.

Statelessness in West Africa: An Assessment of Stateless Populations and Legal, Policy, and Administrative Frameworks in Ghana

Executive Summary Drawing on qualitative interviews that are complemented by the analysis of government policy documents, this study examines statelessness in Ghana. It addresses a range of policy, legal, institutional, administrative, and other politico-socioeconomic matters attendant to the concept. The study defines statelessness in its strict legal sense. It recognizes populations at risk of statelessness that may be restricted from benefiting from the protection and privileges of their host state. Persons identified by the study as stateless or at risk of statelessness include persons from traditionally nomadic migratory communities, former refugees, persons residing in border communities, members of Zongo communities, trafficked persons, and those affected by gaps in previous constitutions. The study also identifies the consequences of statelessness, including lack of access to healthcare, education, justice, and work. The study offers several recommendations to prevent and reduce statelessness in Ghana.
