Powojenne grupy nacisku i organizacje społeczne związane z japońskim rządem a kwestia pamięci o II wojnie światowej

Author(s): Olga Barbasiewicz / Language(s): Polish Issue: 3/2017

In this article I focus on so called ‘pressure groups’ and social organizations related to the Japanese government, which have a real impact on modern memory politics. I analyzed two organizations, such as The Association of Shinto Shrines (Jinja Honchō), and The Japan War-Bereaved Families Association Nihon Izokukai. To verify the hypothesis about the impact of these organizations onto the shape of contemporary politics of remembrance, the offi cial structures of these pressure groups were analyzed to show the formal principles they pursue when taking decisions on diff erent memorials and places of remembrance.

Koszty zdrowotne i społeczne przemocy domowej wobec kobiet

Author(s): Marzena Lelek-Kratiuk,Leszek Pawłowski / Language(s): Polish Issue: 4/2012

Domestic violence is a serious threat to the safety of citizens of modern Europe. According to the Council of Europe, one European woman in four is experiencing domestic violence, at some point of her life (statistics on the basis of the report of the Council of Europe of 2002). Based on the latest literature, authors conducted an analysis of the phenomenon of domestic violence against women in two dimensions: the psycho-medical and the socioeconomic. In the psycho-medical dimension there was presented and evaluated the battered woman syndrome the term popularized by L.E.A. Walker. This combination of symptoms considered initially as relatively specific, in the light of the research proved to be heterogeneous: among women subjected to violence there are observed symptoms of PTSD (posttraumatic stress disorder), or characteristic symptoms of depression or anxiety. Remains open question whether the observed PTSD resulting from domestic violence differ qualitatively from the others (e.g., occurring as a result of accidents or disasters). In the socio-economic dimension, the paper presents results of the survey that indicates a decrease in tolerance for violence against women in the countries of the EU and an increase of “social vigilance” for this type of pathology. British studies show that expanding the institutional support for the victims causes a decline in the rate of domestic violence, which is refl ected in lower economic costs associated with this pathological phenomenon. Based on methodology used for counting the costs of crime, British researchers have estimated the total cost of domestic violence occurring in the UK at around 23 billion pounds a year in 2001 and around 16 billion a year in 2008.

One of the biggest crises of the modern world – the COVID-19 pandemic – brought with itself new measures to be implemented all around the world. The lockdowns imposed to prevent the spread of the virus affected terribly numerous aspects of everyday life but mainly created a hidden pandemic indoors. The purpose of this paper is to underline the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in what concerns the violence against women (VAW). Although it might seem early for estimating the damages produced in this area of study, there can be envisaged many statistics, a lot of system weaknesses, and possible solutions to help the victims. This article aims to resume the whole chaos installed on the Globe behind the closed doors, in the family - the most intimate place, where the joy and the love should dominate.

“‘Sali, Sali’ (Pray Pray)”: Religion’s Role in the Process of Trauma Healing in Lucette Lagnado’s Memoirs

Author(s): Ichrak Issaoui / Language(s): English Issue: 1-2/2023

The current paper seeks to study the importance of religious practices in the journey toward healing from the trauma of exile. It focuses on the writings of the Jewish-Egyptian memoirist and Wall Street Journal investigator Lucette Lagnado, one of the very few writers who brought the story of the Jews of Egypt and their exilic experience to light. The history of the expulsion of the Jews of Egypt merits scrutiny as it is still understudied to this day. After the establishment of the state of Israel and after the widespread of anti-Semitism, the Jews of Egypt were subjected to multiple forms of oppression and were treated and labeled as traitors and spies, which led to their expulsion from Egypt. Exile was and perhaps even still is traumatizing for the Jewish community. When the philanthropic organizations failed to help the community heal from trauma, the community members turned to religious practices to assuage their pain. Cathy Caruth’s conceptualization of trauma theory and Stef Craps and Gert Buelens’ criticism of this theory will be of help to understand how exile can be a traumatic experience. The works of Darryl W. Stephens and Donald Meichenbaum, among many other scholars, will be of interest to better understand the role of religious practices in relation to healing from trauma.

KADINLARI CEZALANDIRAN KADIN: AZİZ JERONIMOLU MAGDALENA

Author(s): Mehmet Talha Kalkan / Language(s): Turkish Issue: 82/2024

As the view of poverty and sexuality began to change from the beginning of the sixteenth century, both poverty and sexuality were seen as problems that needed to be controlled, supervised, and solved. Towards the end of the sixteenth century, a similar situation arose in Spain, where social, financial, religious, political, and economic problems caused problems for those in power and the number of controls and restrictions on prostitutes in the country increased. While previously tolerated, a group of individuals allowed to carry out their profession, prostitutes were accused of morally and hygienically polluting society. This group, which was to be controlled by the church and the government, included not only prostitutes, but also other women such as vagabonds, strays, witches, beggars, lazy women, and thieves. Magdalena de San Jerónimo, who aimed to rehabilitate the women by imprisoning them in buildings called galera, wrote a treatise entitled Razó n y forma de la Galera y Casa Real, presented it to King Felipe III and declared that society could be purifiied by imprisoning the women who were causing the decay of Spanish society. This study focuses on the reasons why the institution called galera, was formed and the possible consequences of implementing it in addition to its relationship with rehabilitation and discipline.

The Role of the Police in Providing Legal Protection for Victims of Electronic-Based Trafficking

Author(s): Trimo Trimo,Yuliati Yuliati,Prija Djatmika / Language(s): English Issue: 8/2024

This research is intended to explore two main aspects of protecting victims of electronic-based trafficking in the jurisdiction of the Malang District Police. First, this research aims to implement Article 42 of Law No 12 of 2022 on Victim Protection. Second, this research focuses on the strategies used by the police in protecting victims of electronic-based trafficking. The research method used is a sociological juridical approach, which involves collecting primary data through in-depth interviews with PPA unit officers and victim witnesses and secondary data from desk research. This approach aims to examine the implementation of relevant legal regulations, specifically related to online prostitution and pimping. The results showed that from 2020 to 2023, there were three cases of human trafficking offences in the Malang Police area. The case study at Batu Police Station illustrates the modus operandi of pimps in utilising the MiChat application to offer victims to customers. In implementing the law, there are challenges in law enforcement related to electronic-based prostitution, especially in applying Article 42 of Law No 12 of 2022 and Article 27 § 1 of the ITE Law, which are multi-interpretive. This research concludes that the role of the police is vital in providing legal protection for victims of electronic-based trafficking, but further efforts are needed to clarify and strengthen law enforcement related to this issue.

“Instead of Pumping Iron, She was Pumping Bullets into her Husband”: The Portrayal of a Female Perpetrator in Nanette Burstein’s Killer Sally

Author(s): Hatice Bay / Language(s): English Issue: 26/2023

In the media, the law, and public opinion, women who resort to violence within abusive relationships are often depicted as either victims or monsters. Nanette Burstein’s three-part docuseries, Killer Sally (2022), reexamines this binary which focuses on Sally McNeil, a former professional bodybuilder who murdered her husband, also a professional bodybuilder, in Southern California in 1995. Drawing on Belinda Morrissey’s When Women Kill and The Routledge International Handbook of Perpetrator Studies, this article argues that Burstein questions the discursive, performative, and one-sided dimensions of media and legal portrayals of female perpetrators. By placing both the perpetrator and the victim within complex sociopsychological and posthuman frameworks, Burstein broadens the discourse on battered women who kill by granting the perpetrator agency and voice.

THE POSSIBILITIES AND LIMITATIONS OF PREVENTIVE ACTION AS A FORM OF OPPOSITION TO THE MOST SEVERE FORMS OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE

Author(s): Saša M. Marković,Dragana Z. Kolarić / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2024

The prevention of domestic violence, timely and effective protection and support for victims, and multi-sector cooperation have become an important strategic direction of the Republic of Serbia since the adoption of the Law on Prevention of Domestic Violence. The authors put forward a hypothesis according to which the change in strategic direction and the emphasis on prevention contribute to: increasing the trust of citizens in the competent state bodies; better protection of victims; and reducing the number of the most serious cases of domestic violence – those that result in death. Using the statistical method, content analysis, and comparative and formal-legal analysis, the paper analyses the data of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Republic of Serbia, the Public Prosecutor’s Office and the Court related to domestic violence for the period between 2019 and 2021. The authors determine that: violence against women in partner relationships is the dominant type of domestic violence; that psychological violence is the most prevalent, occurring in 68% of the cases, followed by physical violence in 41% of the cases, and economic and sexual violence; that more than 1/3 of the possible perpetrators are repeat offenders, i.e. persons on whom emergency measures were previously imposed; that the victims do not participate in the adoption of individual protection plans; and that the death of the victim occurs despite the imposed emergency measures and the response of the competent state authorities. For these reasons, the authors emphasise the importance of protection on multiple tracks, and propose a series of measures and actions that should be taken by the competent state authorities.

BULLYING IN THE SCHOOL ENVIRONMENT - FROM IGNORING TO IDENTIFYING SOLUTIONS

Author(s): Angelica Mădălina BANCĂ,Felicia Andrioni / Language(s): English Issue: 3/2022

The statistics show how big the problem of bullying is globally and in Romania, but a high number of the people who should stop this phenomenon exhibit an attitude of ignorance and sometimes denial. The research objectives of the present study aim to analyze the phenomenon of bullying in the school environment, on the one hand, and on the other hand, to identify the decisive prevention and intervention measures undertaken in school institutions that have contributed to the reduction or eradication of the phenomenon. Two qualitative research methods were used: the analysis of the relevant documents identified based on the analysis of the literature and the comparative analysis of the research results identified in the field.The main results of the analysis reflect the fact that at the global and national level, in the school environment the phenomenon of bullying has expanded in a worrying way, its effects repercussing on the social stakeholders involved in the educational environment, highlighting acts of violence in various forms, more serious or lighter, such as hitting, striking, tagging, humiliating or mocking verbal aggression, threatening with beating, extreme violence, delinquency, up to suicidal ideation and suicidal behavior on the part of the victims. The conclusion highlight that this phenomenon constitutes a challenge for decision-makers in school institutions, which, associated with the tendency to ignore or not recognize this problem, generates dysfunctions in identifying viable solutions that lead to the prevention, reduction or eradication of the phenomenon of bullying in the school environment.

Rezilijentnost kod dece i mladih u prisilnim migracijama na Balkanskoj ruti

Author(s): Anja Marković / Language(s): Serbian Issue: Spec./2024

This paper addresses the development and implementation of effective psychosocial support strategies aimed at fostering resilience in children and youth in forced migrations, with the goal of preserving their mental health and enhancing their ability to cope with challenges on their journey and integration into a new social environment. The research combines a theoretical review of resilience characteristics and an analysis of the migration context on the Balkan route, as well as the identification of risk and protective factors. The paper also includes findings directly obtained from a qualitative study conducted with a sample of 23 professionals in Serbia providing psychosocial support to this group. The results provide insight into the forms, characteristics, and effectiveness of psychosocial support in correlation with the development of resilience in children and youth. A significant aspect is the reflection on challenges faced by these professionals, including systemic challenges, collaboration between government and non-governmental sectors, and insufficient support in their work. The contribution of this research also lies in providing concrete recommendations for addressing these issues.

Krizni menadžment u socijalnoj zaštiti – slučaj pandemije

Author(s): Ljubo Lepir,Svetlana Ristić / Language(s): Serbian Issue: Spec./2024

The pandemic has brought about a series of changes in the field of social protection services. The conventional models of management in the field of social protection services underwent fundamental changes overnight due to the mandate to comply with the epidemiological measures. Even priority areas of social protection went through changes which were reflected in the fulfillment of key principles in working with beneficiaries, accessibility and timeliness in procedures. The subject of the paper is precisely those changes. The paper is based on the results of research conducted into the functioning of protection and support systems for victims of domestic violence in Republika Srpska, with a focus on changes which occurred in the management of the social welfare center, one of the key entities in that system. Applying a functionalist-structuralist approach to the theoretical determination of the subject of analysis, the research was conducted using empirical research instruments, surveys with professional workers and interviews with directors of social welfare centers. Just over a half of the professionals believe that the centers were entirely unprepared for the emergency situation caused by the pandemic. More than a third of the respondents are of the opinion that the organization and the mode of operation of the center changed from one day to the next, with an emphasis on implementing restrictions in terms of contact with the beneficiaries, fieldwork, and the business hours of the institution. Directors of social welfare centers have emphasized that multi-sectoral cooperation in prosecuting domestic violence cases was reduced to informal communication mechanisms, and that coordination of actions “from top down” was completely lacking. The results of the research have shown that changes in the management of social welfare centers during the pandemic were significant and had a negative impact on fulfilling the principles of accessibility and timeliness in dealing with victims of domestic violence.

The Research Trajectory of Judith Kestenberg: From the Study of Movements to Research with Child Victims of the Holocaust

Author(s): Fátima Caropreso / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2024

The physician and psychoanalyst Judith Kestenberg created a method of body movement analysis called the “Kestenberg Movement Profile” (KMP). She proposed an innovative approach to prevention and intervention in early childhood development and conducted extensive research on child survivors of the Holocaust and on the children of survivors. This latter research produced a great deal of knowledge about the psychological effects of severe childhood trauma. Most of the published material about Kestenberg addresses the KMP. However, her research on child survivors of the Holocaust and on the children of survivors is still the subject of little systematic research in the fields of psychology and psychoanalysis. This article aims to present the course of Kestenberg’s research and characterise her work on child survivors of the Holocaust, with a view to contributing to the appreciation and dissemination of her work.

Exploring psychological vaccination for potentially traumatized children

Author(s): Veysi Çeri,Abdulbaghi Ahmad / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2018

Objectives: Traumatic events and associated stress due to ongoing war and displacement may have severe adverse effects on psychosocial development of children. Although more than half of traumatized children are expected to develop posttraumatic psychopathology, no effective prevention has been found. The present study aims to investigate if Crisis Intervention Program for Child and Adolescents (CIPCA) has protective effects on mental wellbeing of child survivors of the ISIS war and displacement in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq. Method: Data were gathered two years after the displacement experience and application of CIPCA (a semistructured single one-hour group intervention that has been hypotheses to act as psychological vaccination against development of posttraumatic psychopathology. The study sample consisting of 51 children (32 girls and 19 boys, mean age 12 years), was cluster randomized immediately after displacement to CIPCA (23 children) and no CIPCA intervention (28 children). Behavior problems were estimated on the Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL) before randomisation and after one-year and 2-years follow-up. Results: Significantly lower symptom score were found among children who had attended CIPCA than non- CIPCA concerning Internalizing scores (0.63, 7.40, t = 2.099, P = 0.049), Withdrawal (0.0, 2.5, t = 2.713, P = 0.014), PTSD index (0.21, 2.64, t = 2.264, P = 0.028) and Total Problem Sores (1.82, 13.07, t = 2.199, P = 0.033), consequently. No significant difference was observed according to Externalizing problems and other CBCL scores between children who had attend to CIPCA and not. Conclusion: These findings pointed out that CIPCA may have protected children against developing psychological problems. We recommend carrying out more systematic studies to investigate the preventive effects of CIPCA on posttraumatic psychopathology The study sample consisting of 51 children (32 girls and 19 boys, mean age 12 years), was cluster randomized immediately after displacement to CIPCA (23 children) and no CIPCA intervention (28 children). Behavior problems were estimated on the Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL) before randomisation and after one-year and 2-years follow-up.

Treatment of speech difficulties and body tics secondary to childhood sexual trauma through a combination of hypnotic age regression and therapeutic coaching: a case report

Author(s): Joseph Tramontana / Language(s): English Issue: 4/2015

For years, when describing his therapeutic use of hypnosis to individual clients or in various presentations to professionals, the present author has referred to hypnosis as a “tool through which therapeutic change can be enhanced.” One such presentation was titled “Hypnosis as an Adjunct to Psychotherapy”. In his book on hypnotically enhanced treatment for addictions and various CEU workshops to ASCH and other groups 3‒6 on addictions, and more recently one specifically on treatment for gambling addiction, he stressed that many therapies could be enhanced when presented hypnotically. Examples include cognitive behavioral approaches (CBT);8 Yapko9 described treatment of depression integrating CBT and hypnosis. CBT, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), 12-step programs, healing the wounded child within, and others have been utilized in combination with hypnosis by the present author. One publication combining hypnosis with other therapies is titled “Hypnotic systematic desensitization”. In an article on hypnotic approaches to chronic pain management, Jensen and Patterson referred to a meta-analysis by Kirsch et al., They referred to “the additive effects of hypnosis” when combined with other treatments.

The Cases of Criminality and Law Violations among Young People and Minors

Author(s): Leyla HUSEYNOVA,Elmira GOJAEVA,Esmira AHMADOVA,Mehriban ALIYEVA / Language(s): English Issue: 18/2024

The chosen scientific article mainly scrutinizes the cases of criminality and law violations among young people as well as minors, which were characterized as crucial social problems. The study identified the main purpose of the spread of criminal cases among young people and the trend of their growth, as well as factors that actively influence this process. The criminality and delinquency among young people and minors are treated as a cybernetic system, which is justified from the point of view of the systematic approach envisaging a socio-economic system with special complexity, dynamism, emergence, and stochasticity in the paper. Global experience with juvenile offenders sheds light on the complex and varied needs of children in conflict with the law. Much of the growing literature on deviant behavior in juvenile offenders shows significant overlap between criminological, social, and medical research. Based on the econometric approach, multi-regression models of the dependence of criminality among young people on the influencing regressors of the environment were built, their qualitative characteristics were tested and mathematically justified that they are a suitable mechanism for optimal management and forecasting in the paper.

CHALLENGING THE CYBERBULLYING PHENOMENON THROUGH THE TECPC PROJECT

Author(s): Anca Colibaba,Irina Gheorghiu,Ramona Cîrșmari,Dana Dănăilă,Carmen Antoniță,Stefan COLIBABA / Language(s): English Issue: 01/2022

The article is a study of the Together Everyone Can Prevent Cyberbullying (TECPC) project (Erasmus+ programme), as it is being implemented by the EuroEd Foundation, Iasi, Romania. The TECPC project raises an alarm about the existing online challenges as educators are too focused on hybrid and digital teaching platforms, ignoring the risks students face: more time online creates more opportunities for harassment. The project focuses on the benefits of the fight against cyberbullying and promotes inclusive education, non-violent attitudes and a much-needed netiquette in digital communication and learning. The article introduces the project’s objectives and results, and gives insights into the teachers’ Handbook and online training course on how to identify, prevent and stop the cyberbullying phenomenon. The TECPC Handbook and the accompanying online course address educators and are focused on three strands related to cyberbullying: social impact, psychologicalmedical impact and IT safety rules, promoting specific actions for teachers, school counsellors, cyberbullying witnesses, parents. The article presents the main findings of the questionnaire carried out on the participants in the project. It also explores teachers’ opinions of the TECPC Handbook and the online training course, the use of TECPC strategies in teaching as well as students’ attitudes towards their TECPC experiences.

Protiv “izjednačavanja žrtve i agresora”: stavovi udruga hrvatskih veterana prema Srbima

Author(s): Sven Milekić / Language(s): Croatian Issue: 2/2024

During the 1990s war in Croatia, veterans founded numerous associations which advocated an improvement of welfare and quickly grew into powerful para-political organisations tied to the dominant political party, the centre-right Croatian Democratic Union (HDZ). Associations held conservative worldviews and promoted a specific narrative about the war brought to life by Croatian President Franjo Tuđman. This dominant narrative, upheld by political elites across the spectrum, promotes a simplified and sanitised account of the war as a “Greater-Serbian aggression”, set upon a strict dichotomy between the victim (Croats) and aggressor (Serbs). Veteran associations promoted this dichotomy as one of the major stratifications of contemporary Croatian society, which demotes the native Serb minority as second-class citizens, blaming them for starting the war. With their rhetoric and activities, associations and their leaders mobilised against everything they saw as a concession to the losing sides – Serbs – keeping the status quo and the victim-aggressor dichotomy intact. Aside of nationalistic reasons, associations looked at the potential concessions at each side – veterans and Serbian minority – through the zero-sum game lenses. Thus, whatever concessions are given to Serbs, it inevitably brings losses to veteran. This is why veteran associations used extreme anti-Serb rhetoric to battle the national minority, framing the concessions, based on law, as attempts to “equalise the victim and aggressor”. Associations focused a lot on three key issues arising from the post-war period: a) return of the refugees, reconstruction and reconciliation; b) prosecution of war crimes; c) minority rights and culture. The paper will analyse veteran rhetoric and contentious activities, using media sources and archival documentation from associations and different state institutions to show how veterans effectively blocked the Serbian minority from freely using their rights and freedoms in the post-war period.
