1. Integrace cizinců ze třetích zemí na místním trhu práce v době ekonomické krize: výklad rozsahu působnosti státních a nestátních orgánů

Creator:

Type:
article, model:article, and TEXT
Subject:
integration, immigrants, labour market, legal competences, and economic crisis
Language:
Czech
Description:
The transformation of spatial structures due to the migration flows is reflected not only in forms of interactions between representatives of a majority and minorities, but also in forms of implementation of integration strategies. The study shows that the implementation of integration strategies towards non-EU immigrants is strongly contextually conditioned: the demand (within the limits of available financial and human resources) determines the offer. The study evaluated integration measures applied by public and private stakeholders in selected areas with the aim to promote the integration of non-EU immigrants into the local labour market during the current economic crisis.

2. Marx after Marxism: value, critique, crisis

Creator:
Nesbitt, Nick
Format:
bez média and svazek
Type:
model:article and TEXT
Subject:
value theory, automation, and economic crisis
Language:
Czech
Description:
Th e article distinguishes between two fundamental dynamics in Marx’s critique of capitalism: the humanist, cyclical, perpetually-renewed struggle between capitalists and wage labor over profi ts, wages, and the distribution of social wealth more generally and what I term a “posthuman” dialectic between humans and machines, unfolding as the unilinear historical dynamic of automation and the corresponding decreases it brings to the capacity of living labor to produce surplus value. Th e consequence of this posthuman dialectic is both the growing superfl uity of living labor relegated to a planet of slums and the actual and coming collapse of valorization as a global process (as opposed to its operation in any single unit of capital). If the former, humanist dialectic remained predominant in what Moishe Postone has termed “traditional” Leninist Marxism, the contemporary context of the “Second Machine-Age” and the expanding automation of virtually all production and services points to a collapse of valorization that philosophers such as Michel Henry and Robert Kurz identifi ed in Marx’s conceptualization of capitalism as “the moving contradiction.”

5. Social housing in Italy: old problems, older vices and some new virtues?

Creator:
Poggio, Teresio and Boreiko, Dmitri
Type:
article, model:article, and TEXT
Subject:
economic crisis, housing policy, Italy, and social housing
Language:
English
Description:
Social housing in Italy, its historical and recent developments, and its criticalities are discussed considering both the pre- and the post-crisis period. The main effects of the crisis on Italian households and the exacerbating of housing problems are also analysed. A critical review of the main policy instruments implemented before and after the crisis is provided, with a special focus on new models of intervention. It is not clear how the housing needs of low income households will be addressed in the near future. Traditional public-managed social housing has been left with insufficient resources while the newly-built affordable housing sector is mainly targeting mid-income households. Several new policy instruments have been deployed and billions of euros invested. Nevertheless, it is still difficult to observe a consistent strategy oriented to increasing the level of social protection in the housing domain, beyond the conventional management of “emergencies”.

6. Význam sdružení cizinců ze zemí subsaharské Afriky a bývalé Jugoslávie v průběhu integračního procesu

Creator:
Gerstnerová, Andrea
Type:
article, model:article, and TEXT
Subject:
community life, social cohesion, economic crisis, Sub-Saharan Africa, and Yugoslavia
Language:
Czech
Description:
Associations of foreigners are generally presented as platforms for meetings, information exchange and social networking. But they are also cultural identity holders and centres for altruistic help and solidarity. During the integration process the associations of foreigners may as well help to reduce the socio-economic disorientation of immigrants in the host society and to facilitate the insertion of immigrants in the labor market.
