ORIENTACIÓN PSICOSOCIAL Y ATENCIÓN A LAS FAMILIAS AFECTADAS POR LA DISCAPACIDAD RESUMEN El presente trabajo centró sus estudios en las familias con uno o más miembros con discapacidad y son atendidos por el Patronato Municipal de Manta - Ecuador, donde se encontraron varios casos de familias fragmentadas a raíz de la llegada de un integrante con discapacidad, estas familias en su mayoría manifestaron no haber estado preparadas para el impacto psicosocial vivido y en relación a aquello se pudo descubrir que la atención social destinada a esta problemática es pobre y deficiente, ya que la mayoría de programas nacionales y locales que se enfocan en la atención de personas con discapacidad se centran en el individuo con discapacidad ya sea por medio del desarrollo de habilidades y destrezas, atención en salud o en la inclusión familiar y social de la persona, dejando de lado la estructura familiar en diversos ámbitos como la salud, la dinámica familiar, la interacción social, etc. A pesar de que varios programas tienen como fragmento en sus nombres la atención integral, su realidad es otra, parte de la investigación se basó en la evaluación de un proyecto que ejecuta el Municipio de Manta en convenio con el Ministerio de Inclusión Económica y Social (MIES) y su enfoque es la atención integral de la persona con discapacidad y su familia, esto revelo datos positivos en la atención de la persona con discapacidad y negativos cuando de la familia se trata. Es por esto que el objetivo del presente trabajo es proponer un método de intervención para contrarrestar la problemática.

The article reveals the method of working with the child's immediate environment, which helps to ensure optimal conditions for reintegration. Partnership between parents, relatives, other important people, social professionals, practical psychologists, specialists and organizations involved affects the overall well-being of the child at different levels of social interaction. The consequences of the specific conditions of keeping and living of orphans and children deprived of parental care in boarding schools, as well as the conditions necessary to achieve the welfare of the child are described. The reintegration of the child should take place as a gradual and controlled process. Constant changes in the conditions of care, forms of placement are detrimental to the child's development, the formation of attachments, so during this process you need to avoid sudden changes and conflicting decisions. The author analyzes the specifics of the process of reintegration of orphans and children deprived of parental care, identifies three levels of social interaction, characteristic of this category of children: sensory-emotional, emotional-social, social-institutional level. In this context, the process of reintegration is to some extent similar to the process of socialization of the individual, which involves the active entry of the individual into all social institutions. The technologies of compiling a map of the social environment are presented, which provides a more detailed, reasonable answer regarding the quality and functioning of the client's social relations; ecomaps, to identify a number of interactions between the client and people related to the client, relevant social institutions, the environment. Based on the analysis of interpersonal connections and relationships, the specialist identifies important and significant people for the child and together with the child explores the possibility of organizing a meeting within the social network, which can be attended by people listed in the map of the social environment.

An analysis of the social pedagogical work with difficult children is presented, outlining characteristics, specifics and approaches for prevention and social accompaniment. In order to highlight the specifics of this group of children, a comparison is made with two other groups of children in a situation of life difficulty - "socially disadvantaged children" and "children at risk". The analysis refers to the understanding that difficult children are children with impaired emotional development, difficulty in communicating with others and disrupted behavioral control, all of which can lead to consequences both on a personal and behavioral level. It is emphasized that difficult children turn into such in situations where adults cannot find an adequate approach to them, and most often these adults are members of the family, parents, or teachers. An overview of scientific positions on difficult children by English, American, Russian and Bulgarian researchers is offered. This is the basis for outlining the main spheres which affect children negatively and categorize them as "difficult children" - emotional-personal; learning-cognitive; behavioral; somatic. The reasons for children’s difficult behavior are examined, including: the family and the flaws in it; the lack of spiritual connection between parents and children; the asocial environment; participation in criminal groups; errors in the work of educational institutions; economic difficulties that have influenced all spheres of public life. The characteristics of problem children are presented that account for the formulation of the principles of social pedagogical work with them. It is emphasized that one of the important approaches in the work is the development of skills for social inclusion, social expression and self-assertion. The model for social pedagogical work with difficult children is developed in two aspects: preventive work and social accompaniment. Preventive work consists in constantly informing all stakeholders - teachers, educators, non-pedagogical staff in educational institutions and the family on the opportunities for preventing "difficult children" on the one hand, and ensuring interaction between the participants in the preventive activities as well as striving to attract more organizations and institutions, on the other. The social accompaniment as a social pedagogical work includes: identification of children with difficult behavior at the earliest stage of the disadaptation process, diagnosis of the factors of the difficult behavior and the reasons for the disadvantage, preparation of an individual road map for working with the child, implementation of the individual program for accompanying the child, measuring and analyzing the results of the child's work and his / her close circle.

THE POET John Donne wrote that no man is an island. Never was this more apt than when applied to the person who is suffering with a crippling disease. For him isolation is disastrous. If intelligent and left too much alone, he becomes embittered, sullen and perhaps an enemy of society. If unintelligent, he deteriorates slowly and steadily into a parasitic, vegetable-like existence, which may eventually sap the lives of all about him. The modern approach to the problem emphasizes adjustment of the handicapped person to the family, the community, and even the nation. All these forces are brought to bear from the social, economic and psychologic points of view, so that such a person is able to live an existence as nearly normal as possible. He contributes to rather than lives upon the society that encompasses him. This consideration of the social aspects of rheumatic heart disease is concerned with these problems and with the extent to which the individual, the family, the community and the nation are able to solve them. On July 29, 1789, Edward Jenner, who first introduced vaccination against smallpox, reported to the medical society in Gloucestershire, England, on "Disease of the Heart Following Acute Rheumatism." The case was illustrated by dissection. This was probably the first reference to rheumatic fever in scientific medical reports. Unfortunately neither the paper nor any record other than its title has ever been found. Perhaps the first physician who pointedly called attention to the association of acute rheumatism and heart disease was David Pitcairn, born in 1749.

Participatory health interventions have long been advocated as an approach to help marginalised community members exercise their rights as citizens, including access to health care. More than two decades ago, the Roma health mediation programme was established in Romania as a participatory community health intervention. Mediators are employed specifically to act as intermediaries between ‘Roma patients’ and local authorities or health professionals, with the overall aim to increase trust and improve access to health care. Based on data gathered during a year of ethnographic fieldwork with Roma health mediators in Romania, including participant observation and interviews, this article analyses the social processes by which participatory approaches produce both social inclusion and exclusion. It illustrates how mediators exceeded their remit of health and attempted to discipline communities into forms of neoliberal citizenship. Mediators reframed access to health care not as a right that community members already have, but as a benefit that must be individually ‘earned’ through the fulfilment of neoliberal citizenship. The article argues that far from being an ‘empowering tool’, community participation can extend the power of governing institutions and thereby may in fact contribute to the maintenance of a political status quo that perpetuates the precarisation of marginalised communities.

In this article of 71 pages Prof. Janet deals with the question of the influence which neuropathic subjects exert upon those with whom they are associated. Each point in this paper is emphasised by reference to actual cases, and it contains a wealth of clinical detail which cannot be included in an epitome. To understand fully the therapeutic value of isolation, and to apply it with precision, it is necessary to consider the costly effort which life in society exacts, to consider the influence of one man on another, especially in so far as one individual by his exactions may create a state of lowered psychological tension in another with whom he is associated. A study of the social conduct of a neuropath in relation to his family will indicate how and why separation from certain persons is so important in some instances. These psychasthenics exhibit social abulia, avoidance of any effort, lack of practical achievement; they can neither command nor obey, they are incapable of real affection, and though they talk much of their feelings, these result in no kind of service for others. Not only do they protect themselves from actions which they dread, but they hinder and oppose others in the family and have the whole household at their mercy. There are a number of morbid impulsions and inferior mental operations by means of which the neuropath dominates the family. Thus there is the mania for helping, in which the individual wishes to participate, and actually hinders, the activities of others, an exaggeration of that tendency of those incapable of physical exercise to watch sports or read sporting papers. A patient expresses this attitude in the phrase, “My dream is to sit with a man who works, especially a man who writes. Oh! let me watch you write for a whole evening.” This tendency may extend to an insistence on useless and futile collaborations. Then there is the mania for authority. Giving orders when it implies direction and initiative is a difficult psychic operation, but there is an elementary form of domination in which an individual formulates an action without accomplishing it himself and without any consideration as to the value, utility or interest of the act. Neuropaths find in such orders extreme satisfaction and at times people placed in positions of authority develop a mania of this kind. Neuropathic authoritatives are divided into two types, those who seek to obtain obedience by moaning entreaties, and those who attack and threaten the members of the family in order to reduce them to slavery and to prevent them from having any freedom. Such patients will obtain their desires by threatening to die if they are thwarted, or by insisting on constant sympathy, any relaxation of such an attitude provoking a scene. Obedience is also secured by the mania for love, the constant demand for every expression of affection. Prof. Janet points out that all these abulics are extremely insistent on their “rights,” whereas the man of action is not worried with his rights but devotes himself to the task in hand. Domination is sometimes secured by the mania for devotion, in which individuals are constantly rendering little services and giving useless presents to others, such generosity having always something bizarre and abnormal, designed to humiliate and exact innumerable thanks. It is only a method of acquiring recognition, protection, regard, flatteries, of playing a rôle.

The present essay, beginning with Catholic press and various authors known in the sector of Missiology, underlines a connection between Song Meiling and Mission in general, particularly the Catholic ones. This work aims at adding a further piece to complete the already well-known Song Meiling’s career, after her marriage to Chiang Kai-shek. Further on, it will be clearly underlined the way she managed to established relationships with representatives of Missions, both Catholic and Protestant, thanks to the reform movement “New Life”, which brought Chinese people closer to Christian values. All this was possible by starting from the family dimension, thus enhancing the link between civil and religious society. Song Meiling’s strong point was the way she promoted social inclusion of the religious confessions, especially of the Catholic Missions, through solidarity initiatives, considering the religious community on the same level as the social community. This was a factor of potential development for the Church in China.

This paper presents an analysis of the death rituals carried out by Muslims in the Priangan region known as ngajahul. Ngajahul is done on the sixth or seventh day after death. Analysis of the ritual of death illustrates that the ritual of death is not only a spiritual-fiqhiyyah aspect, but also has a role in describing social relations. The graveyard that lay in the cemetery, not only shows the grave, but also describes the relationship between the deceased, the family and the social environment. This research in a sociological perspective produces the concept that the rituals of death and society, especially Muslim societies in various aspects are referred to as containing social cohesion. This concept illustrates that death rituals are not as depicted in recitation forums that see death rituals as a tradition laden with rituals that are spiritually nuanced. Ngajahul is a tradition that produces social interaction and involvement in social life that is produced simultaneously. Key Words : Ngajahul, Ritual, Social cohesion, fiqhiyyah
