<p>En este artículo expongo parte de los resultados de un trabajo etnográfico realizado en torno al proceso institucional que caracteriza los primeros años de implementación de la Mediación Penal –entre 2012 y 2015- como forma de administración de ciertos conflictos penales en Salta-Argentina, tomando en consideración en particular la perspectiva del mediador y su contexto significativo y cotidiano de trabajo. Siguiendo la noción de “sensibilidades legales” de Clifford Geertz, nos detenemos en las oposiciones entre los conceptos de delito, litigio y conflicto, y con ellos de individuo y persona, las percepciones sobre la mediación penal en relación a otros campos de la justicia y las disputas de criterios acerca de qué casos pueden tratarse en mediación penal. Suponemos que estas percepciones y consideraciones, que no están del todo zanjadas por leyes y reglamentos, contribuyen a complejizar y dinamizar el campo de la gestión de conflictos en Salta, produciendo y a la vez cuestionando jerarquizaciones entre profesionales de la justicia, estableciendo luchas por la afirmación de este campo en relación a otras esferas de la administración de justicia, y dando cuenta, en su funcionamiento, de su relativa autonomía. Tales conceptos también hablan del modo en que operadores concretos conciben y definen su trabajo.</p><p><br /><strong>Abstract</strong></p><p><br />In this article I expose parts of the results of an ethnographic work done on the institutional process which characterizes the first year’s implementation of mediation –between 2012 and 2015-, as a form of administration of certain criminal disputes in Salta-Argentina, considering in particular the perspective of the mediator and its significant and everyday context. Following the concept of “legal sensitivities” from Clifford Geertz, we focus on the opposition among the concepts of crime, litigation and conflict, and with them individual person, perceptions of criminal mediation related to other fields of justice and criteria disputes about which cases can be treated in criminal mediation. We assume that these perceptions and considerations, which are not entirely be settled by laws or regulation, contribute to complicate and streamline the field of conflict management in Salta; producing and questioning hierarchies among legal practitioners, establishing struggles for affirmation of this field related to other areas of administration of justice, realizing in performance of their relative autonomy. Such concepts also speak about how individual operators conceive and define their work.</p>

The Impact

Administration of justice is adding information and communication technologies in its internal operations and its relations both with judicial operators and citizens in Spain. The chapter describes the Spanish institutional framework characterized by the plurality of actors with competences in the administration of justice and the lack of mechanisms of coordination among them. Then, it sets out the different applications of ICTs within administration of justice, classified into four categories: treatment of information, management of judicial files, relations between judicial operators, and decision making. The analysis of such applications focuses on Spanish administration of justice. The chapter finally shows the impact of Spanish institutional framework of justice in the development of e-justice.

This paper reflects on the work done at a large UK university to redesign assessment procedures in a way that was intended to contribute to an improvement in assessment literacy for staff. Existing practice was reviewed and showed that changes in assessment processes were needed to make the organization of assessment more consistent and more transparent across the institution and to develop staff assessment literacy. Revised procedures were designed and implemented in order to make a clear distinction between institutional requirements for ensuring standards and recording outcomes, and academic decisions that ensured that assessment was designed to be appropriate for disciplinary requirements.

Administrative Tasks

Conflict has been an integral part of collaborative ventures. Educational institutes comprise multiple integrated key activities such as teaching, learning, student management, examination, result declaration along with several administrative tasks. It has also been observed that generally stakeholders do not have formal training to deal with such issues and sometimes lack of knowledge and skills to address the disagreements efficiently adversely affects the overall productivity. Conflicts can occur in various forms starting from verbal dialogue and escalated up to physical confrontations resulting in spoiled relationships. An institutional framework should be designed and must be made transparent, so that all stakeholders understand their roles and responsibilities at the institutions. The obligation and constraint defined clearly can act as an essential tool in de-escalation of conflict. This chapter aims at understanding the modes of conflict, reasons behind conflict, and then designing a framework for conflict management in educational institutes.

Abstract. Research on the neural mechanisms underlying Gilles de la Tourette syndrome (GTS) has mostly concentrated on abnormalities in basal ganglia circuits. Recent alternative accounts, however, focused more on social and affective aspects. Individuals with GTS show peculiarities in their social and affective domain, including echophenomena, coprolalia, and nonobscene socially inappropriate behavior. This article reviews the experimental and theoretical work done on the social symptoms of GTS. We discuss the role of different social cognitive and affective functions and associated brain networks, namely, the social-decision-making system, theory-of-mind functions, and the so-called “mirror-neuron” system. Although GTS affects social interactions in many ways, and although the syndrome includes aberrant social behavior, the underlying cognitive, affective, and neural processes remain to be investigated.
