O presente livro é resultado dos esforços dos integrantes do Coletivo de Pesquisadores em Política Educacional (COPPE), grupo de pesquisa vinculado ao Programa de Pós-graduação em Educação da Universidade Estadual Paulista Júlio de Mesquita Filho (Unesp), campus Marília. O COPPE foi fundado em 2012 e completou 11 anos de criação contribuindo para o desenvolvimento de estudos e pesquisas sobre as políticas educacionais, sejam as originadas no poder público ou na sociedade civil. Nos últimos 6 anos, o Coletivo incorporou o referencial teórico-metodológico da Educação Comparada e Internacional para ampliar a capacidade de compreender as políticas educacionais. O livro está organizado em três partes. A primeira parte dedicada à Educação Comparada, a segunda com foco na Política Educacional e a terceira voltada para a Educação Profissional, perfazendo dez capítulos ao todo. Desejamos que este livro contribua para a reflexão sobre a realidade educacional e fortaleça a produção do conhecimento encetada pelo COPPE no âmbito da pós-graduação em educação, a qual necessita ser disseminada e circular junto ao público interessado no tema.
(In)justiça social: demandas da e na educação é uma coletânea de textos que possui como unidade norteadora a questão da justiça social e da educação, o que por si só atesta sua relevância. Os temas abordados ganham em expressão pela atualidade e diversidade de suas abordagens teóricas e pelo fato de terem sido construídos por um grupo de profissionais de mais de 10 instituições e de diferentes áreas do conhecimento, atuantes na educação básica, na graduação e em programas de pós-graduação stricto sensu. Sua organização teve por propósito não apenas contribuir na formação inicial e continuada de professores e demais profissionais da educação, como também suscitar debates no seio das lutas e demais formas de combate à exclusão.

What is the role of narrative in how people learn throughout their lives? Are there different patterns and forms of narrativity? How do they influence learning? Based on data gathered for the Learning Lives project, which sought to understand learning by questioning individuals about their life stories, this book seeks to define a new learning theory which focuses on the role of narrative and narration in learning. Through a number of detailed case-studies based on longitudinal interviews conducted over three and four-year periods with a wide range of life story informants, Narrative Learning highlights the role of narrative and narration in an individual’s learning and understanding of ho...

Forests hold a significant proportion of global biodiversity and terrestrial carbon stocks and are at the forefront of human-induced global change. The dynamics and distribution of forest vegetation determines the habitat for other organisms, and regulates the delivery of ecosystem services, including carbon storage. Presenting recent research across temperate and tropical ecosystems, this volume synthesises the numerous ways that forests are responding to global change and includes perspectives on: the role of forests in the global carbon and energy budgets; historical patterns of forest change and diversification; contemporary mechanisms of community assembly and implications of underlying drivers of global change; and the ways in which forests supply ecosystem services that support human lives. The chapters represent case studies drawn from the authors' expertise, highlighting exciting new research and providing information that will be valuable to academics, students, researchers and practitioners with an interest in this field.
The book provides fresh look at the issues of sustainable development, degradation of natural resources and vulnerability to climate change in Small Island developing states (SIDS). It documents the deteriorating state of SIDS and adaptation efforts made to address the impending crisis of unsustainable economic growth with international, national and community support. Authors have discussed issues like macroeconomic trends, vulnerability, resilience capability, and SIDS-specific strategies focusing on sectors like trade and tourism. Discussion continues with the examination of democracy, social capital, quality of life, and health concerns. Climate change and natural resource challenges are analyzed using case studies. The book also discusses diplomatic complexities of international climate agreements, collective action and institutional quality constitute the analysis of global environment and sustainable development.
Economic Effects of Natural Disasters explores how natural disasters affect sources of economic growth and development. Using theoretical econometrics and real-world data, and drawing on advances in climate change economics, the book shows scholars and researchers how to use various research methods and techniques to investigate and respond to natural disasters. No other book presents empirical frameworks for the evaluation of the quality of macroeconomic research practice with a focus on climate change and natural disasters. Because many of these subjects are so large, different regions of the world use different approaches, hence this resource presents tailored economic applications and evidence. - Connects economic theories and empirical work in climate change to natural disaster research - Shows how advances in climate change and natural disaster research can be implemented in micro- and macroeconomic simulation models - Addresses structural changes in countries afflicted by climate change and natural disasters
