Análisis del tratamiento informativo realizado por los diarios El Mercurio, El Comercio y El Universo a las noticias sobre los casos de femicidio de Cristina Suquilanda, Karina del Pozo y Edith Bermeo, "Sharon"

Los medios de comunicación tienen un gran potencial para influir en los temas que la población comenta. Es así que con el presente estudio se pretende conocer cómo los medios construyen los discursos sobre las muertes violentas de mujeres, en tanto que si lo hacen desde una perspectiva educativa y preventiva podrían contribuir a la erradicación de la violencia contra las mujeres, pero si por el contrario lo hacen de manera sensacionalista ayudarán a reproducir estereotipos acerca del rol que la mujer debe cumplir dentro de la sociedad. Esta investigación tiene como objetivo principal examinar el tratamiento periodístico que realizaron los diarios El Mercurio, El Comercio y El Universo sobre los casos de femicidio de Cristina Suquilanda, Karina del Pozo y Edith Bermeo, respectivamente. Para determinar si el abordaje fue sensacionalista o por el contrario se incluyó una perspectiva de género, se utilizó la metodología del Análisis Crítico de Discurso que permitió develar las construcciones discursivas que se hacen alrededor de las muertes violentas de mujeres. De esta manera se encontró que no existe una perspectiva de género en las noticias sobre femicidios.

Direito da religião

This dissertation stands out the religious and social role of Christian religious minorities in Portuguese society, where the vast majority of the believers profess the Catholic faith. This work serves to demystify the widespread prejudice against minorities and clarify its place in the religious phenomenon in Portugal. We intend to define the concept of Religion, missing in the Portuguese legislation, framing it in Portuguese constitutional history, which allows us to evaluate the relations State/Catholic Church and State/religious minorities, since Liberalism. We attempt to measure how the legal system accepts the religious phenomenon and how to deal with religious diversity, according to the principle of religious freedom postulated in the Constitution of the Portuguese Republic. It is also our intention to relate the concepts of sect and religious minority, which tendentiously are misunderstood. In order to understand the underlying dynamics of religious minorities, we take the example of the Portuguese Evangelical Alliance, which we monitored closely throughout the investigation. We will give some space for a small analysis of the state and social discrimination experienced by the minorities. With this work we can conclude in general that Portugal, despite its weak religious diversity, has a good advance on the religious freedom. The Portuguese State has made a remarkable effort to cooperate with the churches, an effort that must be continued in order to fill some gaps found, particularly in the absence of legislation regarding the criminalization of religious discrimination and competence of the Committee on Religious Freedom in case of a possible complaint. We prove similarly that there is also a special attention to the Catholic Church in the composition of the Committee on Religious Freedom and the Committee Broadcast Time of Religious Confessions. In the end, we prove that the society is the major source of discrimination against minorities.

Bridging the gap: early warning, gender and the responsibility to protect

Women, Peace and Security (WPS) scholars and practitioners have expressed reservations about the Responsibility to Protect (R2P) principle because of its popular use as a synonym for armed humanitarian intervention. On the other hand, R2P’s early failure to engage with and advance WPS efforts such as United Nations Security Council (UNSC) resolution 1325 (2000) has seen the perpetuation of limited roles ascribed to women in implementing the R2P principle. As a result, there has been a knowledge and practice gap between the R2P and WPS agendas, despite the fact that their advocates share common goals in relation to the prevention of atrocities and protection of populations. In this article we propose to examine just one of the potential avenues for aligning the WPS agenda and R2P principle in a way that is beneficial to both and strengthens the pursuit of a shared goal – prevention. We argue that the development and inclusion of gender-specific indicators – particularly economic, social and political discriminatory practices against women – has the potential to improve the capacity of early warning frameworks to forecast future mass atrocities.

Avaliação do impacto do modelo biográfico em educação sexual na erotofília/erotofobia e no duplo padrão sexual

O impacto do modelo biográfico em educação sexual no constructo da erotofília/erotofobia e do duplo padrão sexual é avaliado, a partir das hipóteses de que este modelo contribui para a promoção da erotofília e atenuação do duplo padrão sexual. Os resultados não permitiram confirmar qualquer uma das hipóteses. Os indivíduos avaliados, independentemente da sua experiência no modelo biográfico, são mais erotofóbicos do que erotofílicos, e o duplo padrão sexual, de acordo com as pontuações médias e os resultados da análise de discurso, só se faz sentir com maior expressividade e significado na perceção social do duplo padrão sexual referente à liberdade sexual dos homens, com ou sem experiência no modelo biográfico, e das mulheres com experiência no modelo biográfico. Em todas as outras dimensões avaliadas do duplo padrão sexual predominou o padrão singular e o padrão sexual invertido (liberdade sexual relativa ao número de parceiros e expressões e vocábulos utilizados para caracterizar homens e mulheres com múltiplos parceiros).

The baby makes 3 plus project in the Great South Coast region: final report from the external evaluator, January 2016

This report presents the evaluation of the Baby Makes 3 Plus project in the Great South Coast region of Victoria. Baby Makes 3 Plus was one of 12 projects funded by the Department of Justice and Regulation in Victoria under initiative to support primary prevention and early intervention-focused partnership projects to address violence against women and children. The project provided the Baby Makes 3 relationship education program to new parents across the region, and conducted a variety of training to increase the skills of Great South Coast early years practitioners (the Plus component of the project). The three key objectives of the project were:• To increase the capacity of first time parents to build equal and respectful relationships in response to the lifestyle and relationship changes that follow the birth of a child.• To increase the capacity of health professionals and organisations to promote equal and respectful relationships during the transition to parenthood.• To building capacity to identify women at risk of experiencing family violence through a gender equity component of in-service training.

Más allá del género

Recibido 06 de setiembre de 2010 • Aceptado 09 de marzo de 2011 • Corregido 22 de mayo de 2011      El propósito del presente ensayo es describir, desde la cotidianidad, la influencia de la palabra en las canciones populares y destacar, al mismo tiempo, cómo lo cotidiano, lo que vemos, escuchamos y vivimos son poderosas herramientas de aprendizaje duradero en la construcción de las representaciones culturales relativas al género. Se destaca la influencia de las letras de las canciones populares en la construcción de la identidad masculina. Además, cómo esto determina las relaciones entre los sujetos, sean hombres y mujeres. Se plantea la necesidad de romper con modelos sexuales estereotipados que generan la violencia contra las mujeres y algunos hombres, en un contexto de una sociedad patriarcal, en procura de una sociedad más democrática y equitativa, sobre la base del principio de igualdad.

Are we there yet? Advancing women in Canada and Australia: Similar goals, different policies

Differences in opportunities and outcomes in the workplace are inherent in a free and competitive market. However when differences between individuals and groups are identified as resulting from particular policies, behaviours or attitudes, any resulting inequality may be identified as unfair. Increasingly, unfair disparities in societies and their workplaces are regularly challenged. Many of the unfair disparities are recognised as caused through unfair discrimination (Anker 1997). When defining discrimination, the International Labour Organization Convention (ILO) No. 111 defines it as “any distinction, exclusion or preference made on the basis of race, colour, sex, religion, political opinion, national extraction, or social origin, which has the effect of nullifying or impairing equality of opportunity or treatment in employment or occupation” (ILO, 1958). Yet, the argument for addressing this ideal of ‘equality of opportunity’ is complex. Ekmekci (2013) identifies the difficulties as the determination of whether any process should be based on equality of opportunity or equality of outcome. In addition, there is the difficulty of determining what exactly constitutes a process for addressing unfair disparity due to the haziness of what constitutes discrimination and controversy in the meaning as well as policy implications of equality (Tomei, 2003).
