Harm Reduction is a philosophy of public health intended as a progressive alternative to the prohibition of certain potentially dangerous lifestyle choices. Recognising that certain people always have and always will engage in behaviours which carry risks, the aim of harm reduction is to mitigate the potential dangers and health risks associated with those behaviours. Harm Reduction in Substance Use and High-Risk Behaviour offers a comprehensive exploration of the policy, practice and evidence base of harm reduction. Starting with a history of harm reduction, the book addresses key ethical and legal issues central to the debates and developments in the field. It discusses the full range of psychoactive substances, behaviours and communities with chapters on injecting, dance drugs, stimulant use, tobacco harm reduction, alcohol use and sex work. Written by an international team of contributors, this text provides an essential panorama of harm reduction in the 21st century for educators and researchers in addiction and public health, postgraduate students and policy makers.

Today we like to think that marriage is a free choice based on love: that we freely choose whom to marry and that we do so, not so much for survival or social advantage, but for love. The invention of marriage for love inverted the old relationship between love and marriage. In the past, marriage was sacred, and love, if it existed at all, was a consequence of marriage; today, love is sacred and marriage is secondary. But now marriage appears to be becoming increasingly superfluous. For the past forty years or so, the number of weddings has been declining, the number of divorces exploding and the number of unmarried individuals and couples growing, while single-parent families are becoming more numerous. Love has triumphed over marriage but now it is destroying it from inside. So has the ideal of marriage for love failed, and has love finally been liberated from the shackles of marriage? In this brilliant and provocative book Pascal Bruckner argues that the old tension between love and marriage has not been resolved in favour of love, it has simply been displaced onto other levels. Even if it seems more straightforward, the contemporary landscape of love is far from euphoric: as in the past, infidelity, loss and betrayal are central to the plots of modern love, and the disenchantment is all the greater because marriages are voluntary and not imposed. But the collapse of the ideal of marriage for love is not necessarily a cause for remorse, because it demonstrates that love retains its subversive power. Love is not a glue to be put in the service of the institution of marriage: it is an explosive that blows up in our faces, dynamite pure and simple.

Existe un mandamiento divino que advierte expresamente… «no mentir?s». Quiz?s este no sea el peor pecado de la econom?a, pero Mira y Rovner demuestran que tiene un rol nada trivial en el sistema capitalista. Homo Falsus hace todo lo posible para convencer al lector de que en la pr?ctica el Homo œconomicus miente, falsea y disimula, y que m?s que meras tentaciones, estas actitudes constituyen el aceite que lubrica los engranajes de la econom?a. Los economistas han sido rotulados por muchos como expertos mentirosos, pero parad?jicamente estos profesionales no han incluido en sus teor?as, como lo hacen estos dos autores, a la mentira como un componente necesario (aunque no suficiente) del funcionamiento del sistema.

Questions about who we are, who we can be, and who is like and unlike us underpin a vast range of contemporary social issues. What makes our families so important to us? What do the often stark differences between how we self-identify and the way others see and define us reveal about our social world? Why do we attach such significance to 'being ourselves'? In this new edition of her popular and inviting introduction, Steph Lawler examines a range of important debates about identity. Taking a sociological perspective, she shows how identity is produced and embedded in social relationships, and worked out in the practice of people's everyday lives. She challenges the perception of identity as belonging within the person, arguing instead that it is produced and negotiated between persons. Chapter-by-chapter her book explores topics such as the relationships between lives and life-stories, the continuing significance of kinship in the face of social change, and how taste works to define identity. In particular, the updated edition has a new chapter on identity politics, as well as carefully compiled guides for further reading that reflect the broad importance and impact of these ideas, and the fact that, without understanding identity, we can't adequately begin to understand the social world. This book is essential reading for upper-level courses across the social sciences that focus on the compelling issues surrounding identity.

Polino. In questo tempo sospeso, una piazza nuova. Accadde in Umbria, in Valnerina, in un piccolo lembo di terra fatto di donne e di uomini, di tradizioni e sensazioni, di misticit?, di duro lavoro e spesso anche di miseria. Consapevoli e fieri di appartenere a una terra vera e leale, che sa raccontarsi anche attraverso vecchi ricordi immortalati in una semplice foto. Oggi, dove tutto corre veloce, uno strano fenomeno ci obbliga a vivere un tempo sospeso, relegati in casa, rischiamo di perdere l'identit? sociale. L'idea di questa pubblicazione nasce da semplici considerazioni: in un momento dove i rapporti interpersonali rischiano di perdersi, le relazioni e gli scambi di esperienze si annullano e con questi anche i contatti che, soprattutto nei piccoli paesi, avvenivano nella piazza principale, abbiamo creato una ”piazza nuova” un luogo virtuale che annulla tempo e spazio ponendoci di nuovo a contatto, facendo incontrare i paesani di una volta, che le vicende della vita hanno portato anche lontano dal paese natio, con quelli di oggi. ? su questa ”piazza nuova”, costruita su un profilo social, che giovani e anziani si sono incontrati e parlati di nuovo: confrontandosi e ritrovandosi, in questo tempo sospeso, attraverso semplici vecchie foto, che sono diventate la trasposizione dell'identit? antica e presente. Un tempo sospeso che non ? stato perso, al contrario, ha dato un frutto nuovo: i vecchi cassetti hanno restituito e condiviso contenuti che, diversamente, sarebbero rimasti confinati e forse persi per sempre. Questo tempo sospeso ci ha rubato molti anziani: la nostra memoria, le nostre radici! Questa “piazza nuova”, tutta virtuale, contribuisce a restituire la memoria e l'identit? portandole avanti nel tempo e nello spazio. Il profilo social ”Poiino, com’era raccontato con le vecchie foto” ha il merito, soprattutto in questo tempo, di costituire una sorta di esperimento sociale che connette il passato con il presente, attraverso i ricordi e le testimonianze di chi c’era e di chi c’? ancora, proiettandoci in un futuro di incertezze e dubbi, ma ricco e sicuro dei valori che abbiamo rispolverato e condiviso con queste vecchie foto, duro lavoro, coesione, dignit?, onest? morale, aprendo una finestra sul nostro passato, proiettando in avanti le esperienze e mettendo a frutto identitario e comunitario questo tempo sospeso. I proventi netti delle vendite di questa opera saranno impiegati per restaurare alcuni affreschi dell'eremo di sant'Antonio di Polino.
