Discrimination is one of the oldest human topics because of human characteristics. From the perspective of last two centuries, it can be supposed that discrimination history is mostly about gender, nationality, race, or skin colour. The topic interested in here is not purely about discrimination in all aspects, but especially about discrimination in the workplace, discriminatory actions, or behaviours in the work-related environment. Discrimination can be considered as a harmful behaviour psychologically in terms of people who are subjected to it. If it occurs in the workplace or in work-related environments, the people who become victim cannot prevent it. At that time, discrimination can be discussed as a mobbing behaviour. Accordingly, the main issue of this chapter is discrimination as a mobbing behaviour.

In all areas of academic or practical work related to disaster risk, climate change and development more generally, community and its adjunct community-based have become the default terminology when referring to the local level or working ‘with the people’. The terms are applied extensively to highlight what is believed to be a people-centred, participatory, or grassroot-level approach. Today, despite, or because of, its inherent ambiguity, ‘community’ tends to be used almost inflationarily. This paper aims to analyse the way the concept of ‘community’ has come into fashion, and to critically reflect on the problems that come with it. We are raising significant doubts about the usefulness of ‘community’ in development- and disaster-related work. Our approach is to first consider how ‘community’ has become popular in research and with humanitarian agencies and other organisations based on what can be considered a ‘moral licence’ that supposedly guarantees that the actions being taken are genuinely people-centred and ethically justified. We then explore several theoretical approaches to ‘community’, highlight the vast scope of different (and contested) views on what ‘community’ entails, and explain how ‘community’ is framing practical attempts to mitigate vulnerability and inequity. We demonstrate how these attempts are usually futile, and sometimes harmful, due to the blurriness of ‘community’ concepts and their inherent failure to address the root causes of vulnerability. From two antagonistic positions, we finally advocate more meaningful ways to acknowledge vulnerable people’s views and needs appropriately.

To be interpreter and at the same time creator seems to be the rule in contemporary dance. It is expected of the dancer to contribute to the making of the piece in which he will appear. Similarly, the choreographer's assistant (also referred as rehearsal assistant) has an active role in the process of creating a dance piece. This paper proposes an analysis of a creative process in which the question of authorship emerges—in our point of view—as the main issue. The onomastic pieces of French choreographer Jérôme Bel will serve as the basis of our analysis, and especially the piece called Isabel Torres, in which the interpreter and the choreographer's assistant had a much more important role in the creation than the choreographer himself. Premiered in 2005, Isabel Torres was supposed to be a Brazilian version of Véronique Doisneau (created in 2004, for the Paris Opera). The creative work made by the dancer and the rehearsal assistant made of it more than a mere version: Isabel Torres is an autonomous piece—so autonomous that Bel offered it to both dancer and assistant, to present it wherever they wished. Who signs Isabel Torres? In which terms is it presented in programs? Do dancer and assistant consider themselves as authors? How does the choreographer deal with it? The absence of the choreographer, the people involved in it, and the kind of work developed in the creative process makes us question the notion of authorship in contemporary dance pieces.

<p>The  1945  Constitution  of  Indonesian  Republic  (UUD  1945)  has  been  a  set  of  sacred  norm and national administration reference for four decades. However, since the reform era Indonesian people are now able to review, discuss, and criticize its content consistent with recent national progress. Amendment of the 1945 Constitution becomes a new momentum to improve the state’s management, which has apparently deviated from the country’s foremost objectives written in the national philosophy of “Pancasila”. In response to the amendment, there are three diverse perspectives that highlight its process. First, there are people who wish to keep the ori ginality of the 1945 Constitution. Second, there are individuals who agree with the last amendment of the 1945 Constitution. Lastly, there is a public view which supports the continuous amendment process of the 1945 Constitution until it achieves the supreme mandate of the country and the people. This paper will focus on the third perspective as the main issue of <br /> discussion.<br /> UUD 1945 telah menjadi norma yang sakral dan referensi administrasi nasional selama empat dekade ini.Akan tetapi, sejak era reformasi masayarakat Indonesia mampu mereview, endiskusikan dan mengkritik isi dari UUD 1945 seiring dengan keajuan bangsa saat ini. Perubahan UUD 1945 menjadi momentum untuk meningkatkan manajemen Negara yang nampaknya menyimpang dari tujuan Negara pada awalnya yang tercantum dalam pancasila. Dalam menyikapi perubahan UUD 1945 tersebut, ada tiga pendapat yang berbeda yang menggarisbawahi proses tersebut. Yang pertama, sebagian masyarakat menginginkan keaslian dari UUD 1945. Yang kedua, sebagian masayarakat menginginkan perubahan terkhir dari UUD 1945. Yang  terakhir,  ada  pendapat  publik  yang  mendukung  keberlanjutan  dari  proses  perubahan UUD 1945 hingga mencapai mandat tertinggi dari Negara dan rakyat. Tulisan ini secara fokus akan mendiskusikan isu dari pendapat yang terakhir dari amandemen UUD 1945</p>

Pick up any official New Zealand publication which includes photographs representing the population and it is highly likely that the people featured will have visible characteristics, including skin colour, that are stereotypically associated with the main ethnic groups living in this country. Equally, examine official reports which consider differences in outcomes between groups of people, such as in health and education, and it is very likely that ethnicity will be a key variable in the analysis. But it is extremely unlikely that skin colour will be explicitly mentioned in either type of report.

BACKGROUND: People’s work life and career can ultimately be deconstructed to the day-to-day job tasks they perform, the people they interact with, and the value and meaning attached to their jobs. Individuals with work limitations and disabilities consistently experience disparities in the workplace resulting in a less than optimal work experience in all three areas. OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study is to conduct a pilot study to test the effectiveness of job crafting as an occupational therapy (OT) intervention strategy for workers with health conditions and impairments. Job crafting is a proactive, strengths-based, bottom-up approach where workers renegotiate and redefine their job tasks in a personally meaningful way. METHODS: A mixed-methods study (n = 11) was conducted with workers who experience work limitations and disabilities. OT graduate students conducted in-depth interviews and facilitated the use of job crafting to improve work-related outcomes. Pre-and post-intervention data was analyzed using descriptive statistics and Wilcoxon signed-rank tests. Qualitative data was transcribed, coded, and synthesized. RESULTS: The job crafting intervention improved work-related self-efficacy (p <  0.05) and crafting behaviors (p <  0.05) in the workplace. Participants accomplished goals to manage their work limitations, meet job demands, and other non-disability related challenges. CONCLUSIONS: Job crafting has the potential to be used as a holistic OT intervention strategy to improve work-related self-efficacy among workers with work limitations and disabilities
