A participação das famílias e da comunidade foi um dos dois argumentos em que se apoiou o regime de autonomia, administração e gestão das escolas aprovado em Portugal em 2008. Contudo, não existe evidência de que esta participação esteja a contribuir para introduzir melhorias significativas nas escolas. O presente artigo emerge de um estudo de casos mais amplo que analisou a participação das famílias em dois agrupamentos de escolas dos subúrbios de Lisboa, ambos com boa reputação na comunidade, mas bastante diferentes relativamente às variáveis de contexto. Foram aplicados 438 questionários a pais e mães, 122 questionários a docentes da Educação Básica, e foram realizadas 20 entrevistas semiestruturadas com diversos participantes. Os resultados evidenciam sobretudo uma visão conservadora da educação escolar e uma contradição entre a retórica e a prática da participação democrática, parecendo esta constituir o mero cumprimento de um formalismo legal. Palavras-chave: Participação das famílias e da comunidade; Escola democrática; Justiça social; Autonomia escolar ABSTRACTThe participation of the families and the community was one of the two arguments underlying the Portuguese school governance model approved in 2008. However, there is no evidence that this participation has contributed to significant improvements in schools. This article emerges from a larger case study that analyzed the participation of families in two school clusters in the suburbs of Lisbon, both with a good reputation in the community, but quite different regarding the context variables. 438 questionnaires were applied to families, 122 to teachers, and 20 semi-structured interviews were conducted with several participants. Results show, above all, a conservative vision of education and a marked contradiction between the rhetoric and the practice of democratic participation, which seems to constitute the mere fulfillment of a legal formalism.Keywords: Family and community participation; Democratic school; Social justice; School autonomy

Vulnerable populations are exposed to several disparities and inequalities representing an infringement of social justice and limiting their opportunities to live healthy and fulfilling lives. Latinx immigrant families with youth and young adults with disabilities represent one such vulnerable population. The purpose of this article is to describe and discuss the participation of Latinx immigrant families of youth and young adults with disabilities in two interrelated civic engagement projects aimed at promoting social justice and community participation. First, we will discuss the conceptual framework of social justice that grounded these cases of civic engagement, and then we will describe two case studies. Both cases of civic engagement emerged from Latinx immigrant families as part of meaningful conversations they had with the research team related to healthy lifestyles and community participation. The first case of civic engagement addresses walkability safety, and the second describes a community-engaged asset-mapping process. These two cases of civic engagement provided participants an opportunity to advocate for justice. Finally, we discuss the implications and challenges that vulnerable populations experience in making their voices heard by those in positions of power.

<p>This study aims to determine and explain the management arrangements for petroleum mining in old wells based on the principle of social justice. This study uses normative research methods with data sources in the form of primary and secondary legal materials. The results of the study show that the management of petroleum mining in old wells does not yet reflect the principle of social justice because the regulations governing mining occur overlapping multiple interpretations, conflictual and disobedient principles, which in turn creates disharmony between one rule and another.</p><p> </p><p><strong>  </strong><strong>Keywords:</strong> Social Justice; Equitable Benefits; Community Participation.</p>

Abstract. Economic changes in the context of globalization have left adolescents from Latin American contexts with few opportunities to make satisfactory transitions into adulthood. Recent studies indicate that there is a protracted period between the end of schooling and entering into formal working activities. While in this “limbo,” illicit activities, such as drug trafficking may emerge as an alternative for young people to ensure their social participation. This article aims to deepen the understanding of Brazilian youth’s involvement in drug trafficking and its intersection with their schooling, work, and aspirations, connecting with Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 4 and 16 as proposed in the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development adopted by the United Nations in 2015 .
